Hey guys, I've got a Samsung Gear Fit 2 that I just bought up from Amazon and I've got an issue. While Samsung says the devices are compatible with one another, the Gear app isn't, and it's driving me insane. Does anyone have a fix for this compatibility issue? I can't get past the compatibility lock, and when I've used previous bypasses by the devs I'm caught by the plugin and accessory lock. Any help?
Thanls for the information...

I picked up the Galaxy Note 3 last week and decided to get the Galaxy Gear as well. So I thought to try and pair up the Gear with my Galaxy S4 and it works. Whether and S-Voice seems not working.
Here is how I got both working.
How on 4.2.2??! How?!

I have my Samsung Gear 2 paired with my Samsung Galaxy S5 Active and when I go into the app store it only shows around 55 apps. I took it into Best Buy where I bought both and talked with the rep there. His S3 paired with a Gear 2 Neo showed all of the apps. Is there any workaround or fix for this? I've tried uninstalling and re-installing the Galaxy app store and the Gear manager, re-flashing the S5, and factory resetting the Gear 2. Any help you guys can offer would be very appreciated!

Load up a build.prop editor from the play store if your phone is rooted and change the phone model to a G900T which is a regular S5 , there are a few threads out there covering how to do this. For some crazy reason Samsung hasn't figured out that their app store sucks really bad and it's apps will work for Gear 1 and Gear 2 with all versions of the note 2,3's and all versions of their S4/S5's. It seems the store checks to see the exact phone model and if the developer of the apps hasn't listed your exact model, then it won't show. Samsung has become a lost cause. Luckily for us though we have XDA and some work arounds. Good luck.

Thanks for your reply,I haven't rooted it yet but I'll try it out tomorrow. Hopefully I'll get more than 55 apps to show up lol
Okay, so towelroot doesn't currently support the S5 Active, or so it told me when I mashed the "make it ra1n" button. Looking for another rooting option.
Edit: Found a rooting solution! http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-galaxy-s5/general/how-to-root-g870aucu1ang3-gs5-active-t2868776
Got everything working and good to go!
recently upgraded to a Gear S, and have not been able to find a basic check book register that will work on it. I had been using daily expense on my gear 2, but... I e-mailed the developer, but he says it will not work on the gear s. Anyone have any Ideas or thoughts?
Thanks

You have to install 3 apk from google play:
1. samsung gear
2. samsung gear plugin
3. samsung accessories service
It works with my Xiaomi Mi4.
Hi folks,
Got my shiny new Gear Sport a couple of days ago. Initial impressions are good ?
Bought direct from Samsung shop online in the UK so ought to be in latest software. Paired on with my s7 running stock firmware.
Seem to have an issue using the Samsung Pay app and the music controller on the Sport. I've received notifications from the phone to the Sport so Bluetooth should be OK, but I've been unable to add a card to Samsung Pay - I've set it up and used it on the phone successfully.
The music controller appears to be trying to connect, but didn't get any further.
Any suggestions folks?
Fingers crossed one of you will be able to point me in the right direction.
Cheers for now,
John
Not sure what I've done differently this time, but everything seems to be working OK now
