So I downloaded quite a bit of apps for my gear 2 from the Samsung store e.g. appy geek. They don't show up on apps and if I click on the app from the store, it says view app in gear manager, but just shows gear manager home page. Any suggestions ?
Thanks

Same here! Did anyone solve this problem? Sometimes I download and install an app but it isn't visible in my G2. And in this way, I can't even uninstall it, since the problem is the same mrsimpson described.

Check your device is compatible, as the connection of your gear to your phone would depend on your version of Android. Also check in the samsung apps (galaxy apps) store instead of the Play store
Anyone found a solution yet?
I managed to run my gear 2 on my htc one m7, i installed apps to my phone but it creates no Icon on my watch as it should...
Anyone knows how to fix that?

I have a VZW S4 (SCH-i545), running Hyperdrive RLS19 and a Samsung Gear 2 Neo (SM-R381), Samsung Apps v14040104.21.007.1, Samsung Gear v2.2.14110499.
I cannot seem to dl and install gear 2 apps and have those apps show in gear manager or on the gear 2 itself.
I even tried moving the apk from downloads to system >apps, but move fails.
The process shows the black, "save file" then "install file" windows, that take up the entire screen
In what folder are Gear apps supposed to be stored, for use?
ETA: So I changed phones. I am now trying the Neo with an S4 on MDK and the Bonestock 1.1.4 ROM.
Every app I have tried has shown on the Neo. Both Watcher and Watch Styler.
The issue now is that when I get out of range and the Neo disconnects BT, it does not auto re-connect upon returning within range.
With the other phone it auto re-connected every time, but most apps would show. GRRR!
Hello,
I try to get the "S Health" version 3.2 working on my Samsung Galaxy S4 active (GT-I9295) with Android version 4.4.2, because the old version is not supporting my Samsung Gear Fit. I downloaded the health version from:
Update for S Health (3.2.0.0014), Health Service, Group Play (3.0.200)
S Health & Health Service --->
Unpack the zip, Install S Health, Open it (it won't work), Install Health Service and finally re-open S Health.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So I deactivated the original version on the S4 active (pre-installed) and rebooted the mobile phone. Then I installed the S Health and started it. I got a message that the version needs to be updated. The first time I ignored the message and installed the health service, but the software didn't run (message: "S Health was stopped"). Then I tried again. The message popped up again and I pushed OK. But next was an error message "Product not available (4002)". So I installed the Health Service afterwards. But the same result. S Health is not going to run.
The "fitness with gear" is also not running correct. It is not showing the history and the synchronization also doesn't work.
So please does anyone has a solution to get S Health running on a S4 Active?
I can check in a days time. My Girlfriend is running stock GT - i9295 with gear fit and s health
I think the solution for now if you have an s4 active and want your pedometer stats, go back to a 2.1 level of gear manager.
I think Samsung assumed most of their phones had a more compatible version of s health
Media fire links of gear manager:
https://www.mediafire.com/folder/e7h23e12rzesi/Gear_Manager
Uninstalling all the new gear apps from applications, and there are a lot of separate ones now, installing 2.1.14071502, factory resetting gear and reinstalling fitness with gear got me back, but on any relaunch of gear manager attempts to update to the new version. I have an old gear plugin app open in recent apps and can still modify by that...
Samsung really overlooked the s4 active with the new gear manager update.

Hi, this is good news. So there should be a solution. Can you look up what version of "gear fit manager" and "S Health" is installed and also the "Health services"
Thanks

Gear app is also running on my wife's device, but the history is not working right now. You only can see the data of today.
I got the gear fit running with S Health on my S4 mini, but not on my wife's Samsung S4 active and she is not very satisfied with the situation.

You will need to uninstall the old version before installing the new version and even freezing can sometimes create conflict.
You can try Super WizCyan ROM and install working SHealth 3.2 from the add-ons package.

Sorry... my bad, had forgot to update the link to the add-on package which is now updated, the add-on package also has the gear apps from S5 (not tried as yet, but you can give it a try and let me know )
I haven't seen any more recent posts on this. Does anyone know if there have been any new releases from Samsung or a workaround? My wife and I just picked up a pair of the Gear FIts. Her's works great on her S4. My S4 Active still doesn't work. I cannot get the latest version of Gear Fit Manager or the latest version of S Health and the version of Fitness with Gear I have will not sync with my Samsung account to preserve history.
You MUST NOT deactivate or remove old version.
So, uninstall new one, make old version work, than update from Galaxy Apps.

Well I can’t even update, when I launch Gear manager, it says there is a update, it downloads and when it starts installing app crashes… And if I cancel the update it won’t let me go in the manager.
So I can’t use my Gear manager, the notifications are still pushed to the watch.

Thanks for heads up, I have succeeded to update from Samsung Galaxy Apps, so updating directly from gear manager fails and after update it wouldn’t connect to my Gear Neo after couple tries it is connected now.
And now I was trying to open up Gear manager again it said there is a update… Again it fails through the app itself but when I open it from Samsung App store it updated another 3 files. It connects again to my gear and app version is 2.2.14092499 now.
So I thought it is working and tried to open Gear manager and it says still there is an update, checked in Samsung App store and there is no update there, if I try to update from the Gear app itself, I get same problem as above.
I will wait to see how Samsun fix these issue, did reboot and cleared the cashes several times on my first try too, it doesn’t help. I am not going to install the ones you posted above, not that I trust that but just to wait and see what Samsung does about this.

I had the same problem as you. The only thing that could solve my problem was to uninstall Gear Manager from Samsung store and install it again.
Maybe you have have tried this already.
Skickat från min GT-N7100 via Tapatalk
There was a reason why I didn't do that. I didn't want to loose my Gear apps.
But after your suggestion, I removed the app and reinstalled again. The app version is still same as the one I mentioned above. But I had to install all my Gear apps again because Gear is pushed to factory reset, which is not so big problem if the Gear app store didn't have constant network issues.
At least after a while I could install everything back but now I didn't have the wstheme files on the watch. Put those back on the watch again and I can use my favorite app Multi-Watch again.
Bit stupid of Samsung, if you ask me. Pushing a update which cause problems. I am not the only one since in the app reviews at Galaxy app store more people complain about it.
I had to factory reset two times in two weeks because of Gear Manager updates.
As you said I needed to install everything again on my Gear. But I haven't seen any improvements with these updates and Gear appstore and Samsung Galaxy appstore sucks with network connection. At least they could send us an update log.

Totally agree with you. It is not like I am side loading apps on my Gear, 4 of these apps are paid apps so a better restore abilities wouldn't hurt anything, and time consuming installs with a lot network issues on Samsung server side is really annoying.
I think my Galaxy note 2 will be my last Samsung phone for a while. I have had too much problem with their own software since I've started to use Galaxy S and now Note2. Problem with the phones software, problem with Kies and now with the Gear's software.
Good hardware, but bad software.

Is there a way to sideload apps to the watch. As i don't have all the apps is the gear store. it seems there are regional restrictions
Do You have any app You want to install in file?
Because there is this app - Filesmaster - which will let You upload any file to the GearS2 and view it in the smartwatch (not sure about installer though).
Yes you can with sdb.
see here for how to connect the gear s2:

no i dont have any apps by now. i searched the web a bit but have not found any. i would like to get yelp! its not available in austria. and i guess there are many more not available
hi,
I have found just one watchface that fit well on GearS2.
it's deskclock (present for free on the store)
you can download here :
http://gearfaces.com/?p=13645
you can sideload it with sdb. but before I think you must obtain a certificate file for your watch from samsung
I have a question about possibly plausible.. I have a Samsung gear s2. Bought it to access Google play.. is there a way to get Google play on the watch?
Just flashed stock Android O to my pixel xl then rooted. Samsung pay doesn't seem to even start whereas before with root it would start but then say it doesn't work on a rooted device. This would leave me to believe that SPay didn't work yet on Android O. Can anyone offer input on this? Thanks
Was just about to come and ask the same question. I know it was not working at all on the Beta of Android Oreo but I thought it would on the official build but nope, looks like we gotta wait for Samsung to update something...the Spay app or the gear app...dunno.

Is your gear S3 actually working on Android O? When I was on DP4 on my Pixel I could not even connect it to my phone and the gear app wasn't compatible via the play store either

Mine is working on O. I get all my notifications and everything like before, just SPay won't even start.
Same Here cant get Samsung Pay to install on Pixel running Oreo then obviously cant setup on my Frontier
Same here with my Nexus 6P, everything except Spay seems to be working fine.
Joined the Android Beta program last week in order to get the 8.0 OTA on my Pixel without waiting. As others have noted, everything else works fine (mostly) but Samsung Pay doesn't open and delivers a crash dialog when opening the Gear app. Also visiting the Play Store no longer shows the Pay app at all, and going to the Play Store on my PC while logged into my Google account lets me get to the Pay app page, but it's marked "This app is incompatible with your device." So, no way to reinstall. (Also, the Pay app is no longer in the launcher or in the Gear applications list.)
I assumed I was out of luck probably until Samsung releases Oreo on their phones, when I'd expect an 8.0-compatible version of the Gear and Pay apps to be available. HOWEVER, in scrolling through my running apps today on my Pixel, what should I see in the list? SAMSUNG PAY. Running in the background. Well, I thought, what if I just access the Storage page and clear the cache and data and restart it? VOILA! I used my watch (not the phone!) to launch Pay, and it immediately opened the setup dialog on my phone. I was able to sign back into my Samsung Pay account and re-add all my credit cards without any problem, and everything is now working fine.
EXCEPT -- the Pay app still doesn't appear in the Launcher or in the Gear apps list, so I guess it's running in some weird stealth mode. But it's running, which is all I care about. So if SPay isn't working for you after updating to Oreo, try Settings > Apps, find the app in the list, go to Storage, and delete data and cache. Launch Pay from the watch and see if it works.
(Note that I am on the OTA install, which means my phone wasn't wiped to install Oreo and the Pay app was still on the phone. If you flashed from the bootloader and you are installing from scratch I think you're out of luck since there's no way to reinstall Pay just yet.)

I accidentally uninstalled Samsung Gear trying to fix this issue. How can I get the Samsung Gear apk again? Is there any way you can pull the APK (AirDroid makes this very easy) and you can upload it?
Found a solution on Pixel XL using Oreo (OPR6) which is rooted using SuperSU and has SU Hide.
1. Download Samsung Pay for Android Wear
2. Download Samsung Pay framework
3. Install both
4. Hide both in SU Hide (tap each app once)
5. Turn off AdGuard (probably just me) to connect to server
6. add cards and let the cashiers be wowed by the magic of the gear S3
*Edit*- I will add that Samsung Pay doesn't show up in the Samsung Gear app or in the apps listed on the watch (shows SPAY version 0.0.1), but SPAY will open when you use the watch.

That's really strange -- I'm on 8.0 and never had any problem seeing the Gear app in the Play Store, only the SPay app. Have you tried accessing the Play Store from your PC while logged into your Google Account? When you do that, the Gear app will always show up -- it will just tell you if it's able to be installed on your device or if your device is incompatible. What does it say?

Just wanted to say thanks for this!! Works a treat! Even asked me to update the app, which it did and worked straight away!! Finally!!! Shocking it's still not officially available on Oreo!

Found a solution on Pixel XL using Oreo (OPR6) which is rooted using SuperSU and has SU Hide.
1. Download Samsung Pay for Android Wear
2. Download Samsung Pay framework
3. Install both
4. Hide both in SU Hide (tap each app once)
5. Turn off AdGuard (probably just me) to connect to server
6. add cards and let the cashiers be wowed by the magic of the gear S3

anyone managed to get this to work with the latest version
i'm on pixel but since there's no magisk yet
we can only use suhide but samsung pay still detect root
maybe it's because of busybox but i can't find busybox anywhere
does supersu use busybox? i looked in xbin, system/bin. still nothing
Hi there,
running OmniROM without root, but the Samsung Pay still shows me my phone is rooted. Is there any app to trick the Samsung app? I see you are mentioning SUHIDE, but I don't want to root. Thanks

I believe omnirom has busybox as part of the ROM itself. SPay detects Busybox as root and therefore won't work.
Hi, I have a Pixel XL running Oreo 8.1 DP2 and planning to ditch my Huawei watch for a Gear S3 Classic.
1) Is the compatibility good between Pixel and S3? (Accessing messages on my watch and customizing the watch faces are not big deal for me). Notifications, health tracking are what important for me.
2) Is Samsung Pay working on 8.1? SPay is the main reason I want to switch other than the better battery.
Is it a good idea switching from Android Wear to Tizen if my phone is Google Pixel?
Thanks in advance guys.
FYI, used this tutorial for my Huawei Mate 10 Pro and it worked like a charm! Thanks!!!
