Download failed. Try again - Samsung Gear S3

I just got the watch and i'm trying to pair it with a rooted v20 but it keeps telling me download failed try again. I used the most recent version of Samsung gear from the app store. Can anyone tell me how to solve this?
edit: I got that fixed but now the gear app keeps freezing and I cant finish connecting.

Anyone know how to resolve this? Fresh factory reset on both my phone and watch and get Download failed, try again

There is a problem with gear app and Custom ROMs or rooted phones.
Check this thread for a fixed version of the gear app.

I also had this problem with my HTC 10 (Custom ROM and rooted) and was able to fix it with this modified APK.

You are the best. Searched for days under the Gear forum and on Google, never saw that thread. Works like a charm!!

Nice to hear that it is working for you, too
I have this Smartwatch since a few days and was searching a lot, because I also had this "Download failed" problem.
I was about to get the watch back. I clicked from xda thread to xda thread and finally found this modified app.
Would be better if this thread is in the gear section ^^

Surely buying the note already gives us photoshop touch? so we should get the updates automagically?
I just got the update from going to samsung apps and searching for abode touch.
Says it's 1.3.0 though and mine was 1.2.0 but playstore version is 1.4.1

So I can update the included version of Photoshop touch on the Galaxy Note 10.1 from the Samsung Apps store? Mine is still v1.2 that came with it and I can't see how to update it via the Samsung app store. I am logged into the store and my download list is empty and there is no tab for installed apps. I click the Adobe touch icon in the Samsung Store and it knows it's installed, I can launch it from there, but I can't update the app.
I did a google search but I found a page on the adobe forums that said to update the Adobe Touch I had to wait for Samsung to update the firmware to get the latest version which doesn't sound right.

That didn't do anything unfortunately. It just asks me my location again, I pick USA and that's it. There is no tab for installed apps. I have a Downloads tab, I downloaded a app called star gazer, it shows up there. I uninstalled it and it's still listed in the downloads tab.

Have you updated the firmware on your note 10.1 to latest version in kies for pc/mac?

I am keeping my Note 10.1 stock and have checked for updates but there aren't any official updates at the moment. So maybe there is some truth to that adobe forums post. I might have to wait for the next firmware update before I can update the PS Touch app.

Flesky issues

I installed flesky on gear 2 and it was stuck on install for 8 minutes. I striped stopping it and now it doesn't show up installed but in the Samsung store it shows as view in app manager with no option to Uninstall and re-install. I've tried Uninstalling gear manager and resetting watch and nothing any ideas
Went into phone app manager and Uninstaller but I guess I have too many contacts with the bug for it to work. Hasn't this been in beta for a while now

Is your Gear rooted?
I have a similar install problem where the Samsung Store says the app is installed, but I cannot find it in Gear Manager. I am wondering if my Gear being rooted is the problem.

This allowed me to keep trying to (re)install the app, but I still get this message every time "Warning: Failed to install the app."
The app appears to install on the phone fine because I can see it in Gear Manager under "Notifications". I wonder what could be keeping the app from installing on the watch?

I'll try to install it once I unroot my Gear 2. Gear Manager does say that my Gear 2 has been modified, so maybe that's why.

So I installed Fleksy, but I also have the problem with it just showing the word "Contacts" with a blank page. Too bad they didn't implement the option to toggle between showing full contacts and favorites. As only the favorite contacts are the ones I'd expect to use Fleksy with.

I flashed the stock ROM (even did an OTA update) on my Gear 2 and the Fleksy installation still failed. Must be a problem on my rooted/debloated Note 3. Oh well...
I can see my contacts sometimes. However it has a separate entry for each phone for every contact, with no indication of what type of phone it is. They should only show mobile numbers and only contacts that have mobile numbers.

[Help] Update Gear S2 with Odin

Hi!!
I come from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gear-s2/general/gear-s2-iphone-remarks-t3259155/page82#815
I have an iPhone with the Gear beta app, but i have the firmware R720XXU2AOJ3, which I have read is old. I need to update the watch to the latest firmware, but i have no compatible Android device to do that.
I have read this , so i think i could update my watch using this method. The problem is that i don't know what is the latest firmware and i don't know where i can download it. Anyone have the last firmware to download??
Thanks!
PD: Device model is SM-R720
Finally got my Gear S2 updated and working with iOS app. I had to reverse engineer the android app to force the compatibility with the android device and update the watch.
Maybe i could do a new thread with a tutorial about it
I dont know if i can close this thread, but if someone can, please close this thread.

I have seen it is a security measure included in latest Android versions (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/...rmission-c2d-message#comment43278803_27043933) to prevent that two different apps declare the same custom permission with a different signature. The simplest way to fix this is get the APK for the GearPlugin app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.samsung.android.gearoplugin) and the accessory app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.samsung.accessory), decompile both apps, recompile them as you recompiled the manager app, sign and finally install them.
Now you will have all the samsung apps signed with the same signature.
I did have a compatibility device, but the Samsung Gear Manager shows that the S2 is running the newest firmware..:crying:
Does anyone know how to upgrade the S2 with firmware R732XXU2AOJ3 to the newest, R720XXU2DPFB, or where I could download it ? I guess I could flash it with Odin to get S2 back to the newest firmware.
