missing (unsynced) workout - Samsung Gear S3

I have Gear S3 and Galaxy S8. They are paired and working well. However, I did a bike ride today which I can see on my watch. I can even share it to Facebook from my watch. However, it does not show in S-healh app on the phone! I can see steps taken on the phone synced from S3 (it shows "Gear S3" as a source on the phone) but my cycling workout is nowhere to be found!
Few details:
I manually start recording ride like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The workout shows in Health app log on my watch:
But not on the phone:
Meanwhile, I can see steps, synced from my watch on the pone (note "Gear S3" as the source in the screenshot below):
If there is a way to force sync this workout from watch to the phone? How I can prevent this from happening again?
Please help, as this is the critical functionality for me and I will not be able to use the watch unless I make this work!

Talked to Samsung support and after clearing S-Health app data and cache on the phone past workouts were successfully synced!

Had a same problem, you saved me
Thanks

How to get HERE maps directions to watch

I have installed the HERE maps ap from the Galaxy Ap store and can't figure out how to get the directions from my phone (note 5) to my watch. Is there something that syncs the two? I have made sure to not update the ap in Google Play. Thanks for any help.
No problem here, I put the destination in here (phone), run here (S2) and when I start , the watch show Direction and vibrate when I change direction.

If the watch app isn't connecting to the phone, I often just turn the watch off/on, and then it works. In theory, you should be able to launch the watch HERE app on the watch and then choose your destination without touching your phone, but for me it's generally easier to select the destination using the phone app.

Go to the "Gear Apps"-store and install "Navigator"!
Can anyone extract the app from the watch as the Japanese version doesnt have it on the galaxy app store

Gear S2 Persistent Notifications

I've created an android app which will forward persistent notifications to the Gear S2. I's a work in progress but I believe I have it stable enough to use. I mostly created this originally to get google maps turn by turn on my watch and haven't tested much past that. If you feel up to it please download the development build and let me know what you think. After installing the app make sure you launch it, tap the three bard in the top right, tap "Notification Settings" and finally set "Gear S2 Persistant Notifications" to on. Once you've done this you should start seeing them appear on your watch. If you want to hide any notifications open the app and uncheck the box, this will cause that notification to no-longer appear on your watch. Bugs will be tracked using GitHub so if you wind any issues please post them there!

Google Maps
anybody use this? i'm thinking about pulling the trigger on a gear S2 and the google maps thing would be huge for when i'm on the motorcycle.
Super useful. But it's force closing a lot on the LG v20 stock Android 7.0
An Example: Deleting a file within FX File Explorer causes your app to force close.
Been able to reproduce the issue every time.

Help with S Health app

Hi Guys,
I use Runkeeper to track my joggings which is also connected to S Health app.
What is happening is when I go to S Health I can view that a new activity from Runkeeper has been added but the calculations are incorrect, mainly the Average speed.
For example today I run 5,46kms in 32m15s and its marking the Average Speed of 11,1kms/h which is wrong.
Average speed is way less than that.
So either the SHealth as some sort or calculation error or is scrambling the imported data.

I have reported the error via Samsung app but the reply looks like a copy/paste one, e.g., log off account, clear app cache, etc etc bla bla bla that doesn't solve the situation.
Any suggestions to solve this?
I was planning to buy the Samsung Gear s3 watch for daily driver but mainly to enjoy S Health at full extent, but since the app is
incoherent I'm holding horses....
Thanks
Got GPS enabled while you're running?
I don't think the health app is very accurate with anything tbh, I log my meals, protein, carbs etc, when I enter what I've eaten and drank, it'll say something like 300g protein, when I click on details to see what gave me that protein it'll have numbers that don't add up to 300g
Same with distance walked, I know how far I've walked but the app doesn't get it right a lot of the time
I use it for estimates / guidelines rather than accuracy
Off course m8 ??
I have GPS and data + Bluetooth as I also use the bluetooth headset to hear radio while I'm on activity.
But the SHealth is importing the data from Runkeeper which is accurate therefore this makes no sense...

Samsung Free stuck on "rejoin"

Getting fedup of trying to sort this by myself as Samsung Tech are nothing short of useless.
When Samsung Free updated to the latest version with the TV included I started getting the message I need to wait until "the leave process" has been completed and can take "up to 1 day". Well two weeks later (14 days!!!!!) it's still not resolved. Posted on Samsung Members and a few others have the same problem.
I have tried the following
1. Force stopped and unistalled updates. Free then works but keeps bugging for the update, once updated then same message.
2. Tried no 1 again and pressed "leave Free" which worked but once updated same issue.
3. Reset app preferences
4. Removed Samsung account from the phone and once the account was back then same message
5. Same problem on my tab s6 which I have now deactivated Samsung Free.
Any ideas apart from using Microsoft Launcher or Nova

Sammy tech support sucks worse than a Bronx hooker
Try clearing system cache.
Clearing data in all related apps.
Factory load on all Samsung junk.
Clear Google Play Services data (just for good measure)
Inversely try updating Sammy apps from the Galaxy Store only not Playtore.
Reboot, reboot, reboot...
Make sure you haven't disabled a needed parent app.
Turn off all power management... destroyer of worlds.
Replace with a 3rd party app or wait for Sammy to fix it... eventually... maybe.

Question BT Connection Issues after Play Services Update

Hello
From time to time I have issues connecting my GW4 Classic LTE to my Pixel 6 Pro A13.
Today I updated my Pixel's Google play Services to the latest beta. After that, I received this notification (allow notifications for GW4):
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then I checked the notification settings permission:
It seems that I can't activate the switch because of restricted permissions (security):
Now The Galaxy wearable app can't connect to the GW4. Also phone can't hold the Bluetooth connection alive:
I had this issue before. Only factory resetting the watch solved this problem. But I don't wanna reset my watch every few weeks. Rolling back to previous play services changed nothing. Clearing play services app data also triggers this issue.
Any ideas? Thanks.
EDIT: I allowed the restricted notification setting like the following instructions. But still no BT Connection. "No notification s possible" notification came back. GW4 only uses WiFi or LTE
Unless youre prepared to deal with the downsides of it, never update core apps like play services to a beta....
My own Watch 4 got its connection wiped just doing an update to a "stable" build from the play store overnight
There is no easy fix, i have to reset and restore from backup....
My ultimate point here is i wouldn't actively invite mayhem by using betas....
