What does that mean??
I can't be the only one that wants the gear 2 to work on the iPhone am I?
I installed the Gear Manage App on my IPhone but cannot get it to pair with the watch from the App.
I can get it to pair without using the App.

Not sure why it wouldn't work or somehow be made to work. In my understanding both are running Tizen. Maybe I should have posted this in the developers thread?

The others Gear was never made to works with others phone that Samsung phone. So it is not now that Samsung will change their software to adapt on their others abandoned watch..... Gear S2 has not the same firmware or Tizen version than the Gear 1&2 and the Gear S has not same Tizen version than Gear 1&2 and Gear S2....
There must be a way to update the Gear 2 to the same Tizen version as the Gear S2. Or at least a Tizen version that would work with ios.
How do I connect the Samsung Gear 2 Neo to my Nexus 6P?I don't want to use the Android wear port simply because I want to have calls on my watch working. I've installed the Samsung Gear app from the Google Play Store but it doesn't find my device. Please help.?
It has been stated many times all over this forum that it's not possible to synchronize a non samsung MM phone with a gear 2 running tizen. If you want to have calls on your watch you should buy a Samsung, quite simple.

I decompiled the gear manager app from the Google play store and it has a lot of strings about the gear 2. I don't understand why would they even bother about that if they don't want you to connect it to the phone...
I have ordered a Gear S2 Classic and will get it in a few days. I know I can pair the watch to a non-Samsung phone. I have an HTC One M8. However, is it possible to access the Galaxy store to purchase new faces from a non-Samsung store? Any workaround?
Thanks!
I have a Huawei phone and use the relevant store (from the Gear Manager) without any issue. There may not be any issue for you at all.

Thanks! I understand that I can get free faces on the store, but can you get paid ones? Thanks.
I've done it on my M8 and my HTC 10, so yes.

Thanks for the replies! I received my Gear S2 Classic yesterday and was able to buy a paid watch face, so yes it worked. I had read on several places that only free faces and apps could be downloaded from the Galaxy store but, thankfully, this is not true anymore.
I found that the Samsung Gear Manager app does not always connect properly to the store and I had to reboot my M8 a couple of times but otherwise it does work.
Thanks again to GodzillaMonster and Gamesoul Master for their replies!
This thread can be closed now. Cheers!
Hi there, it looks like Samsung has not forgotten our beloved Gear S2 yet.
Just received a major update. Gear S2 is now at Tizen 2.3.2.7, software version R732XXU2FRC1.
I see some significant UI style changes and updates in S Health.
do you have a link?

I am afraid not, it was pushed to my phone OTA.
Quite some changes actually, S Health seems to have received a complete overhaul.

Could this update be the reason my watch no longer recognizes my book reader TTS with the music controls as it used to? I'm trying to find some way to get those controls back, as that was a major reason why I purchased the watch in the first place.

I don't know if that's the classic, but if so, I have the same one as you and I got the update. I think everybody got it at the same time regardless of Gear S2 model.
It was supposed to quote the guy with the T-Mobile Gear S2 but I guess not...
My Gear S2 is the Verizon 3G version (R730V) and no update is coming through the Android Gear App yet. I'm using a Verizon MVNO, but I don't know if that would stop it from being accessed.
My current Tizen version is 2.3.2.2.
I think the Gear VR controller functionality could be cool.

I tried it yesterday. It can be useful, but less so if you already have a Gear VR Controller.
The S2 as VR controller is not a device which you can see in the virtual world and use as a laser pointer like the Gear VR Controller. It is more like a wrist replacement of the touchpad on the right side of the Gear VR. So you can use the watch face to swipe, scroll, and tap to select. Besides, you can allocate a function to bezel rotation, like setting the volume.
I keep getting "update failed" when attempting to install it. Anyone else?
Gets to 10% then reboots and says failed. I have tried a factory reset, but still the same.
So a couple days ago I went into a Verizon store and was looking at smart watches when one of the reps told me that the Galaxy watch works with pixel 3 now. I guess there was an update with one UI that allows the watch to work with other Android phones. So I decided to buy it because it's a sexy watch in my opinion. At first we had trouble getting the watch to activate cellular. But after talking with tech support it works just like an apple watch now. Calls go through the phone and watch at same time with option to answer either. Notifications and emails work perfectly. The screen on this watch is very good. I was also able to get Samsung pay set up on the watch just by using the Galaxy wear app and it installing a Samsung pay plugin for the watch. I just wanted to give an update in case anyone else was thinking about this watch and pairing with pixel 3.
I am using Galaxy s3 from beginning, I mean it's support andriod and iOS out of box. One UI give more user friendly
