Anyone using OB1 succesfully with Galaxy Watch 46 LTE/4G?
For me everything is working except Gassist and mobile connection.
The first one says BT is not connected (even thought phone says 'connected' while the second hangs on Galaxy Wearable app on setting up mobile connection (eventually saying service could not be setup )
I am running OB1 with xxx_nolimits mod.

How did you setup the mobile connection?
Can you use online functions outside of wifi and phone reach?
Is your phone rooted/unlocked?

i can't connect my watch to my phone, it says the version is not compatible with the system. have you reset the watch while installing OB1? Or It was associated before upgrading to OB1?

Galaxy Wearable is latest from play store.
Watch software is latest according to softwareupdate.
Model is SM-R805U

To OP, I have the wifi version and it works fine on ob1. Your post is a bit confusing, you say everything works except Gassist (bixby?) and LTE. Then you say the first one hangs on Bluetooth...second one.....etc. So I'm assuming you were able to pair and that LTE is the only thing that doesn't work. I'm also assuming you got a smart watch LTE plan from a compatible carrier separate from your phone plan. Try this link, it might help
www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00082122/
Also remember, if you reinstall the Samsung apps (i.e after u reset the phone), you have to reset the watch and go thru the pairing process again.
Also make sure 3 apps were installed : Wear, wear plugin and Samsung accessory plugin and that all permissions were granted.

Unfortunately i don't get any connection with my Gear S2 and my Note edge. I have the Gear Manager from the Samsung App Store and Android 5.0.1 (no root)..
Maybe some of you have the same problem and a solution.
Thanks and sorry for my bad english...

Go to http://apps.samsung.com/Gear and click Samsung device. I think the Gear S2 has a newer Gear manager which is not on Samsungs app store. It should be on Google Play store.

Thank you for your replay. The App in the Play Store is only for non Samsung phones. I can not install this Version on my Note Edge.
The other Version is the same like the App in the Samsung App Store.
I'm having a similar issue on my SM-N9200. No matter what I try when attempting to connect the S2 with gear manager nothing works. From everything I can tell I have the latest version and there are no updates available in the Samsung store, or software updates. Very frustrating.
Okay, and im assuming you have tried to factory reset the Gear S2 and toggle the Bluetooth on and off on your phone? When the gear manager app scans for devices, does your watch show up as discovered? Or does it not show up at all. Can you search for the watch by going to the Bluetooth utility on your watch? I guess the last step would be to contact Samsung support on this issue. It seems like there have been a lot of known bugs since the release of the watch.

I already speak with the samsung support. BUt they know now soluton. The will check my problem and maybe they will fix the bug.
When i scan with bluetooth directly i can find the watch but the gear manager will not find the watch. i also make a factory reset after i check if the watch works with an old LG G2, it does, but not with the note edge.

Yes I try it a lot. Also with older versions of the gear manager. But nothing works.
Thats really weird. Im wondering if the watch is defective? Can you swap it for a new one?

No, I think the watch is okay because the watch works with the lg g2 and the gear manager for non samsung devices but not with the note edge and the gear manager for galaxy devices.
I think it is a software problem from the gear manager.
Oh yeah, if you can connect with another device then it has to be software.

What Android version and gear manager version do you have?
An update to Gear Manager has been released and the Note Edge can now connect to the Gear S2
And the Play Store update to the Gear app from yesterday has borked my BT connection on my Nexus 5 that I also upgraded to Marshmallow. S2 will no longer connect to Nexus 5.
I can't seem to get my S2 to connect to my LG G3 running 5.1.1 BLisspop.
I think I might just have to return this.
schitt.
Connection to Note 3
I can confirm this does not work on my Note 3 unless I'm running a Touchwiz rom. I had (and loved) the AICP rom and none of these files will help it connect. I get the standard "modified software" message. When I installed the stock rom w/tweaks, it connects fine.
So I couldn't use the "Samsung phone" version of Gear manager because while it's a Samsung phone, it wasn't running Samsung software. But I couldn't use the "Non-Samsung phone" version because it still sees it as a Samsung phone and I get the "incompatible with this device" message.
I have to decide between the AICP rom and my old Gear Live or the touchwiz garbage (w/Nova launcher to hide it) and the Gear S2..
same problem here
Hi Guys,
I have same problem. I got Gear S2 Classic from Korea and it won't connect to my S6 Edge. I downloaded to latest gear manager app version 2.2.15092142 . but it still won't connect and give message "check if your phone is compatible and if the gear manager app needs to be updated, then try again" I have factory reset both the phone and the gear but still same issue.
anyone got a solution?
Thanks
There is a paid app by Mobiteka called Gear Navigator Companion on the Gear S2 app store. The app needs a free app by the same name to be installed on your phone https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobiteka.navigator&hl=en
The app supposedly uses the Google Maps api to offer navigation and street view on your Gear S2. I installed the free Android app on my Galaxy Note 5 and purchased the app for the Gear S2. However the app always fails to get installed on the watch with the message "Unable to continue without your Gear connected. Connect your mobile device to your Gear and try again". This happens despite the fact that my Gear S2 is very much connected to my phone and is receiving notifications just fine.
I have left a negative review on the Gear app store and will update this post if and when the problem gets fixed.
Update (on 01 December 2015)
The developer contact me within 10 hours of my review and offered some helpful suggestions on how to get the app working. To be on the safe side, I conducted a factory reset of my Gear S2 and repaired the watch with my phone and the app managed to get installed on the first try. It works well with the companion app on the phone and I'm pretty happy with how things turned out. I have modified my review to give it 4 stars.

Happend to me plenty of times when installing an app on the watch. Sometimes a reboot helped and sometimes a soft reset. Not the fault of the app developer... If you must, blame Samsung

What phone are you using? As already mentioned all over this place, you won't see any fee-based apps with a non samsung phone... and no, there isn't a feasable way around this by now.

That's the problem. I'm using an LG V10. Wonderful phone and works well with watch. But I guess there are compromises. No way to sideload at this point??

Nope. You can try using sdb over wifi... (http://developer.samsung.com/technical-doc/view.do?v=T000000251&pi=1&ps=10&pb=Y&ct=CT030000&sc=) , but you would still need the app...

I have exactly the same problem, very disappointing. Only received the watch for Christmas and straightaway I hit a problem.
I'm sorry to of your problems, I too received mine for christmas this morning. Have root s5 and connect right away and updated not a single problem so far.( Other not enough apps for my likeing )
Going to ask the obvious, have you tried reseting the watch ?
Hi all,
Mine was just the same issue, after reading a bit you should reset the watch after updating and the phone too. But disconnect and erase the connection phone <-> watch too. After new pairing all was ok.

Can you explain steps required? I have same issue after gear manager update. I would like not to hard reset my phone. I'm on non-rooted Note 4 with lollipop 5.1.1. It used to work excellent until last update.

I did back track latest apps installs and updates on my phone and I wonder if Gear Manager is main source of the problem.
Night before I discovered that gear manager stopped working correctly, I did mandatory update for few of Oculus apps for my Gear VR.
My question is: do people with Gear Manager problem have any Oculus apps installed on their phones?

Hi, I have a Xiaomi 10 pro
just updated to MIUI12
ever since then my watch has a "watch" logo on top which means is not not connected to bluetooth.
I have reset the phone's network setting a couple of times.
the watch is also reset.
I have used the Galaxy Wearable to connect the watch. It detected the watch and seems connected (but under bluetooth menu it just saved the watch setting without indicated connected)
the it stuck at the "finishing pairing" page.
Whenever it asked me for permission i either allow it when the apps open or allow it all the time.
but it just stay in that finishing parining page over 20 minutes.
any body faced this problem after updated to MIUI 12?
I am still on Miui 11 but after last security update for June had loads of issues with constant disconnect and errors with Samsung Galaxy Active 2 watch.
Gonna get rid of this and get a Mi Band 5.
I know it's totally different device but not using all the functionality currently.

I want to stick to a watch instead of a sport band.
Anybody could hint me?
I have tried to connect the watch to an earbud, it works perfectly fine. quick pairing and working.
however it is just not the case with the phone.
again my phone is pairing perfectly with other devices too like my car, earbud, headset.
As i do workout quite often, all the data are store in the watch and not going to the phone. also it is not uploading to the database when it is already connected to WIFI.
I have the same problem, after MIUI 12 my galaxy gear s3 can't connect to the phone, bluetooth is trying to connect but connection failed.
Tried to factory reset phone and watch - nothing helps.
I have the global rom on my mi 10 pro. I was getting the watch not staying connected. I held down the Galaxy Wearable app, hit info, and turned on auto start, and I've been fine since. Oh, I am using Galaxy Active 1 though, not 2.

But it doesn't make sense when the bluetooth connection is not even staying conencted, there is not going to help with the app with auto restart. I have still gave it a try which didn't help much.
But Thank you for the input anyways.
i thought its only me but yes i have samsung watch active 2 after miui 12 update i cant connect my phone gives a pincode to connect to the watch but the watch isnt showing any pincode to pair.

Hi, as you said there is no pincode popup, but can you see the device (in this case your active 2) when you open the bluetooth list from the PHONE?

Disabling MIUI optimization SOLVES the issue!!!

Try clear WhatsApp App data, it will reset permissions and it should work again. You'll just have to backup and restore your whatsapp.

Thank you, looks like it is work so far.
Also do you have a solution for the keyboard - when you reboot - it goes back to the default keyboard and not my preferred. Sugou Keyboard is therefore re-enabled as the default keyboard
Thanks again for your help

and no problems with pairing? I can't pair my watch with 10lite. In the last stage of pairing it remains endless. I tried with newest and older galaxy wear app+watch plugin, but allways the same. On my other phones (Note 3 and Xiaomi) no problems.
Could root or open bootloader be the problem?
Solution found in: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...nd-probably-other-samsung-weareables.3931738/
and in
[GUIDE] Stock FW: rooted, debloated, storage encryption, G-Pay, S-Health, Wearable
(used link2 for getting samsung health to work, perhaps this would also work for gear, but i had paired my watch with link 1 first.)
I have the 46mm version and no problem connecting what so ever. my phone is unrooted though.
I faced a problem when I migrated from my old S8 to the N10L which was that the watch was locked to my Samsung account and that I had to have the same Samsung account that was on the S8 logged in to on the N10L but that was it.
Thanks for your feedback. I also have the 46mm, and i use the same samsung account on all my phones. Also i tried to pair with and without internet-connection with no success. So maybe it has to do with root.
Perhaps i will try again after receiving upgrade to Android 11 before rooting that.
