Apps not showing in Samsung Apps

I have a Gear 2 running on a Galaxy K Zoom in Texas. However most of the apps mentioned here don't shop up for me in Samsung Apps through Gear Manager. Is the Samsung App Store region/carrier/device specific? Can't find Paypal, Gear Navigator, etc. Anyone know how I can get the apps to show up?

Here the same. Before ugrading to Tizen I had Eevernote, Glympse and MyMyRide on my Gear1. All gone now and not showing up in the store in Gear Manager. I think I didn't upgrade, but downgrade to Tizen :crying:

No problem

I have a good news for you , downgrade from tizen to Android is possible and very easy, it's toturial ( how to )
If after downgrade your touch screen isn't working, don't panic You must flash evrything again and evrything works perfect, i too update, to tizen and back to android.

Doesn't solve my problem as I stated I'm using a Gear2. Anyone have any insights on the reason why the apostle aren't showing for me?

same question is here ...
any solution or idea ?!?

Think it might be device specific. I have a note 2 with gear 2 Neo and no Golf Navi, gear navigator, etc. Decided to reset and pair neo to my work phone (galaxy S4) and they showed up. Tried downloading application to S4 then backed up apk and loaded on note 2. Application installed on phone OK but failed to install in gear manager. Not sure if this applies to all scenarios but this was my experience.

I am a developer and I have published Gear apps
Developer can choose group of devices and can also select regions and countries
I do select always all devices and all countries.
If the developer decide to select some devices and only one country, the the app will be published to the selected devices and to that country only
Why? I don't know!!
If you can't see my apps, then the problem is in your side
check "My Gear Apps" topic

Actually can see your apps in gear manager Lux and Thank you for your work on them. Looks like some GPS based apps (at least in my case) are being excluded from the Note 2 running 4.4.2

The previous version of my app (Multi-Watch) was compatible with 89 devices.
The current version only 55....
I didn't change or add any permissions.
Its a complete mystery to me.

Thank you for the heads up. Now I'll stop uninstalling and reinstalling thinking it's something on my end.

this is what the developer console of the app store shows to me now:
<see attached screenshot>
I tried asking them what is the reason for it, but got referred to a standard app publishing paragraph..... as usual.
In total I have asked them 13 questions now, never got a real straight forward answer on my questions.
I wish there was a way to call them and speak with them on the phone.

I ended up rooting and changing my build.prop to reflect a Galaxy S4. Now everything shows up.

hi could you please post the model number i should use in the build prop please
Thanks

It is a filter problem caused by the Samsung app store. Currently, they filter the devices manually like so: Gear 2 + Galaxy S5, Gear 2 + S4... and so on, which I think is kinda dumb. My apps on there are filtered for 55 combinations. I'm sure they are missing a lot!

Gear 2 neo compatible.

I cant find anything on the web about the Gear 2 Neo's compatibility with the Note Edge. Has anyone tried this? Does it work with the Edge.

My local deales told me that all Gear variants are compatible with Edge. I use Gear 1 and it works fine.

I use it without any problem

I'm sure it would work. I have the Asus ZenWatch and it works great with my Edge.

No sos option.

I have a Galaxy s6 paired with the gear s2 but no option to set up sos in the gear manager. My wife has a note 5 and has the option as well as others I've seen have it too. Anyone else have this problem?

I'm on the Nougat S7E beta and both S2 + S3 Frontier work fine...tho having a Samsung phone might help
Probably down to the rom or Gear Manager needs updating

I have a nexus 6, rooted on cm14 (android 7.1). Watch works for the most part (no messenging app for some reason), and can confirm Samsung pay does work. Only tested Samsung pay at one location, and I will say that it did fail multiple times before I found the "sweet spot" and it went through.

Same problem here, force close with gear manager from play store... Any solutions ?

I run a stock LG G5 non-rooted with no issues with any apps or watch functions. The issuesnis more than likely root and/or a non-stock rom being installed. I suggest flashing backk to non-rooted stock and that will probably resolve both issues.

Do you have calls and text message working?
I can't call from the watch neither reply to a message from the watch since I have my mate 9.
Worked fine with a S6

I have a Oneplus 3 on android 7.0 oxygen OS unrooted paired to gear s3 frontier, been using this set-up as previously trying cyanogenmod 14 rooted (resurrection remix) found one annoying issue.
The phone dialler just freezes as soon as you dial someone. This works perfectly fine on stock rom.
I'm not sure but will try rooting oxygen os and see if this happens, to determine if rooting causes issue. Also using third party apps for texting seems to have better compatibility.
Will try this theory on phone dialler to see if it works. I hate the fact it wont dial phone numbers presaved with #* or 2 second pause.
Also noticed I don't see anything on gear manager for Samsung pay set up.
I had a gear s2 previously and worked prefectly on stock or custom rooted roms.
Still with its faults I love it. samsung as always has to mess up with small but simple things ;(

Xebec, I am having the exact same issue on my Galaxy S6 Active with nougat beta3 not connecting to Gear S3.
Worked perfectly when I was on 6.0.1!
Do you know of a thread where this is being discussed, or an available workaround?
Much Thanks

I have not found any workaround. I did actually contact Samsung and they were surprised that it didn't work, though they had no solution.

With Nougat official OTA I'm having no problems.

Cancel phone alarm from watch?

Hi,
Just got an S3 Frontier.
When a phone alarm triggers, I can cancel or snooze it from my Android Wear watch.
How do I do same on my S3?
Thanks,
Dave
