Is it me or are there more people with this problem?

Galaxy watch uses tizen OS so don't think Google wear will work. You need to use Galaxy wear app.

I see a press release on the Fleksy website saying that the keyboard is now available for the Gear 2. I would like to know how to install it. I see videos and such showing how to do it on the old Galaxy Gear but since the OS change I am not sure the same ADB process is the same. I would like to know how to install this and see how it works.
Since I am a new user I can't post links but if you search gear 2 keyboard you will find it.

Not out yet. They sent me a message on Twitter saying very soon. They are working with Samsung.
Some phones can't install Samsung gear and Samsung accessory services from play store. The one plus 2 is one of those device.
Here is the two files needed.
Install gear and services and your good to pair. I hope Samsung makes this work with every phone.
Here are the updated APK's (as of this morning): 10/26
Gear Manager

Samsung Accessory Service

Hi, Where did you get these files from?
Nexus 6 and Google play. Copied the apk
Oh cool. I've just sent you a message
I got the message I don't have time to do any of that.

Samsung Pay
Does anyone when our what's up with samsung pay app for the gear s2 is it out yet my watch says no payment app installed in the tap and pay section
Same issue!!
Same problem here. I tried to use the tap-n-pay at a location where I normally use my Samsung Pay on my Galaxy S6 Edge, and nothing happened. On my Gear S2 watch I went into Settings/Connections/NFC, then scroll down to Tap and Pay - and I get a screen which says, "Tap and pay (then shows sketch of tap n pay) No installed payment apps"
And unfortunately there is no Samsung Pay app in the Gear app store. So upset about this.

Not for me. If the screen is on the always on clock then I get notifications. If its on the black only screen I get nothing. This isnt working like it should. Ive tired everything. Ive turned on always on mode and then turned of wrist gestures and the always on clock will only stay on for about an hour and then it will just be a black screen and Ill get nothing. With always on set to on and wrist gestures to on I will only get notification if the screen just turned off or always on clock showing.
Are you using the Oneplus 2?

Yes. You think thats the issue?

Hello Guys,
I have a rooted Samsung Galaxy grand prime (SM-G530H) and I bought Samsung Galaxy Gear S2 classic smart watch. I tried to download the Samsung Gear from the internet. I can pair the watch with my phone through Bluetooth well, but when I use Samsung Gear application to connect to my S2 watch, a message appears "Gear Not found".
please, try to help me to connect my phone with the watch, since I can't buy another phone nowadays, since I'm really broke. I just wanted to try out that watch and paid all what i had to get it.
Thanks in advance
Peter
Are you just rooted our have you installed a custom Rom? Also have you disabled any apps/services?

Hello Tapatalk,
Well, my phone was rooted long time ago. I know now that Samsung Gear S2 is only compatible with Android phones with RAM bigger than 1.5 GB, but I'm sure there is a solution so that my phone can be connected to the my gear watch, since it's just useless now!
Kind Regards,

Try to pair the phone to the watch using the Samsung Gear app first, do not pair the watch to the phone under Bluetooth connections.
Also, there are files that many people remove when they are trying to lighten up roms. Your best bet is to backup your current Rom and flash a pure stock Rom. If you can't get things connected that way, you know it's a device compatibility issue

Hey guys I know it's unrelated but do you think there's an app that can emulate hard keys ie. Volume/Home, so I could like use it for the camera or some kind of camera app.
There're paid apps for it. But I have a non-samsung phone, I can't purchase any.

You may be able to do that with Task2 on the S2 and Tasker running on your phone. I use Task2 to set my phone on vibrate and to do some other things with it.

you can only see how long the watch has been on through the gear app on the phone. click on the watch battery percentage and it will tell you.

Has the app changed in a year? The Gear app doesn't currently display uptime when viewing battery info.

Smart watch.
It looks like you don't need to do a full reset.

This is correct. I have done it each time I upgraded my Samsung phone(s). Works for GS3 and GS2.

Should be the same if you're using the Gear manager app. Backup to Samsung account first.
