Moto G & Disney Junior Watch

I'm rather disappointed. I purchased a Moto G for my son, in lieu of an iPod Touch. After configuring everything and installing aps, I see that Disney Junior Watch is not compatible with the device. This is one of the reasons behind the purchase.
Anyone else find a way around this issue?
Also, does anyone know which devices are supported by Disney Junior Watch? I know that the Nexus 5, Nexus 7 and the Samsung Galaxy Nexus are.
You can try downloading the apk

Thanks. Yeah, I downloaded the apk and side loaded it. The app executes but the videos only play with audio.

I don't even see the app on the maker, both on moto g and nexus 5. It must be some regional restriction?
Do you see it in the market?Where are you from?
United States
I contacted Disney support and they responded with a list of compatible Android mobile devices:
Kindle Fire (2nd Gen), Kindle Fire HD 7.0", Kindle Fire HD 8.9", Kindle Fire HDX (on the Amazon Appstore)
nabi 2, nabi 2 Disney Edition, nabi 2 Nickelodeon Edition, nabi Jr, nabi XD (on the App Zone)
Google (LG) Nexus 4, HTC One, Samsung Galaxy SII, SIII, S4, Samsung Galaxy Note, Note 2
Google (Samsung) Nexus 10, Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0, Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1, Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0, Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1
P.S. It works on a Nexus 5 and a Nexus 7 2012, neither of which are listed in their response.

Pairing Gear S2 with Moto G2 (2014)

Hello everybody,
I bought a Samsung Gear S2 Classic and wanted to connect it with my Motorola Moto G2 (2014) with Android 6. Unfortunately it did not work, even though I have installed the following apps from the Play Store:
- Samsung Gear
- Gear Plugin
- Samsung Accessory Service
The seller told me i could connect without problems with all Android devices. But now, I have found that there is an official list of compatibilty devices:
samsung.com/global/galaxy/gear-s2/device-compatibility/
Is it possible that my Moto G2 can not connect with the Gear S2? That would be a big disappointment for me.
Thanks & Greetings
Milo
Here is a thread with the same issue. It looks like the problem is regarding to the less RAM in the Moto G2 (2014). The Gear S2 needs at least 1,5 GB but the Moto G2 (2014) has only 1 GB. It looks like i need to buy a new phone to use the Gear S2.

Hi,
look to the thread you linked.
Now there is a working solution.
Best regards
I have removed the minimum RAM requirement check from the Samsung Gear app, so it's now also compatible with devices that have only 1GB of RAM.
Below is link to my blog where you can download the modified Samsung Gear app.

Problems Pairing with a Google Pixel 2 XL running Android P

I'm wondering if anybody else is having issues pairing a Google Pixel 2 XL with a Samsung Gear Fit 2 Pro? I have a Samsung S8+ and a Google Pixel 2 XL (work) phone that I bounce back and forth using as my daily phone. I recently signed up and are using Android P on my Pixel 2 XL. When I upgraded to Android P, the Samsung Gear app worked just fine and the Gear Fit 2 Pro worked fine too. Then, I went over to the S8+ for a few weeks (unpaired the watch from the Pixel 2 XL and paired it with the S8+). Now, when I try to go back to the Pixel 2 XL and pair the watch with the Samsung Gear app, it force closes just when the "pairing process" is taking place. It will show the 6 digit pairing number and when I hit "OK", it force closes.
Anybody else having issues with this.....or is it just me? I figured Samsung just hasn't updated their Gear app for Android P just yet?
I've been trying to pair my Gear Fit 2 since the second Android P beta. Samsung said that they won't release any support until the OS is final.
Thanks! Yes, I had to opt out of the Android P program and go back to Oreo to get my Pixel 2 XL to work again with my Gear Fit 2 Pro.
Guess I"ll just wait for the final version of Android P to come out...with Samsung's Gear app update....before upgrading to Android P again!
Ugh...thanks Samsung!
Hello,
Unfortunately I am also experiencing the same issue with my Samsung Gear Fit 2.
I have a Google pixel 2 and also on the Android P beta program. Ever since the launch of the beta 5 I have experienced this issue. Before the beta 5 update, I had no hiccupps whatsoever with my fit 2 on Beta 3 and 4.
Since discovering the issue, I've been able sync my watch with the Gear app successfully on an LG V20 and the latest Nougat version.
I have tried several workarounds that have been successful for the same issue when other Android versions launched. However I have had no success with any previous work around as of thus far.
I also forgot to mention that I factory reset my Google pixel 2 AFTER the beta 5 update. Could that be the problem completely as the app works fine with Android P before the reset?

Samsung Gear 2 [SM-R380] on Oneplus 7 pro [Android 10?]

Hello XDA members,
I'm looking for a way to connect my Samsung Gear 2 [SM-R380] with my Oneplus 7 pro. Tried the original Samsung
"other devices apk" but with no result. My Oneplus 7 pro is running on Android 10.
Looked on this site but couldn't find anything usable.
Hope someone has a solution, cause in my opinion is the Gear 2 one of the beste smartwatches ever!
Greetings
