Happy flashing.

Hi,
I cant wait to know if we keep bluetooth issues on this one.

The changelist number has quite a jump...

Began uploading, at around 10% at the time of writing this. I wonder about flashing it myself to see if anything is changed. If anyone knows if Saudi Arabia's N9005 needs another PIT file, now would be a good time to tell us.
Because among the first ODX firmwares were the German and Dutch T-Mobile branded ones, and they needed a PIT to flash properly. xD
ETA 45 minutes.

Saudi, and the whole Middle East fall under EMEA, and most manufacturers tend to divide continents through that regulation rather then actual continent itself.
It's XXU and that's how all the European roms begin with. I'd say your good to go as nearly all European roms have the same PIT (excluding branded firmwares as you said).
Whether it is branded, that remains to be seen. Someone from Saudi could inform us well if the users there dominate in Unlocked or Carrier phones.

Firmware uploaded, updated OP with the link. Is there any way I can edit the title of the thread to add a MEGA tag, too?
Edit: never mind, even if my profile says "Senior Member" I still gotta learn a few things around here. xD

Odin flashed it with all green and said PASS!!
But general stability and battery life, can't tell you those without using the thing for a couple of days at least.
Also, don't you think that without experimenting a little XDA wouldn't have been where it is now? Every time I flash, even though I've taken backups and whatnot, I've embraced the possibility that it might be the last thing I've done to the phone.
Phone just finished loading, I'm setting it up and seeing what's different. It's safe to flash.

What bluetooth issues? I'm on BOD6 and didn't notice any issues with my headphones, car or bluetooth speaker.
I'm also going to try this version soon.

Just read posts in any Lollipop thread for Note 3 and you will see people in trouble with Bluetooth
It might be that already the branded version you have sorted out partially those issues
Basically the problem is that using smart bands or smart watches the connection sometimes is lost and it is a mess to get them connected again
Even with my Plantronics earphone sometimes I need to keep trying many times to connect as it doesn't start
These problems are with the only unbranded Lollipop release that is the Polish one

I'm flashing this Saudi Arabia version as well, ad I understand from you that the bluetooth problems seem to have been fixed! Did I understand correctly?

You can always pick any branded version BOD6 or this one and uncompress all files.
Replace cache and hidden files with any of the unbranded roms (I use the less debloated ITV).
Re-tar all files and then MD5.
Then just install as usual via Odin, it won't trip knox as it's official.

No i wanted to say that im waiting for feedback too

Anyone knows which modem version is in N9005XXUGBOEA? Will it work well in Europe?

Fantastic!
The first tests are very positive. I went far from the phone a couple of times with my Gear Fit and the Note realized immediately the disconnection (it was not like that with the previuos version)
When I was back close to the phone immediately the smart band Gear Fit connected again both times.
Same test and same success with the Plantronics earphone, so indeed it seems that this new Lollipop version is managing correctly the bluetooth connections!
Also the gallery speed and the Chrome browser speed seem to have been improved

I don't know which modem version is there, I can only say that at the very moment it seems to work properly in Italy (TIM) where I am based... connecting correctly in 4G/LTE
This version shows again 4G as the icon, instead LTE at it was in the last version. But this is just a graphic difference. The internet speed is very very good

Can't download anything from the app store

After factory resetting my gear I can't download anything from the app store. I get a message saying "an error occurred while transferring files to your gear."
So what am i supposed to do about this? Now I can't get any of my apps or watch faces back. Also on the gear app when I go to select watch faces it just tells me to "please wait" and doesn't do anything after.

Can you give more details...
Exact model name... example
SM-R760
or
SM-R765
or
SM-R770
?
Firmware Version?
You are using with Samsung handset... or other manufacturer?
Only to be sure this is not something like incompatible with blabla

SM-R760. Firmware R760XXU2BQC5 Galaxy s7 edge. I've also noticed S-voice doesn't work for me when im connected through bluetooth and my data is on. It used to work with data on but now it only works when im remotely connected through wifi

Also I can't use S-voice. For some reason it tells me there isn't a connection but im connected through bluetooth and my phone data is on...Could it be something I disabled on my phone or I didn't agree to something after i factory resetted?

Sorry.
At the moment I have no solution nor "good" idea...
Only standard crap... like.
Start again from scratch...
Maybe you have chance to use second/other handset... to check if it is handset/Gear Manager problem...
Or problem inside Gear device...
Maybe deinstall Samsung Gear/ Gear Manager Software from handset... all parts...
And download again from Store...
I have at the moment no idea, if recently any changes happend to Gear Plugin or main app...
Good luck.
Best Regards

Any chance to test second device?
I mean maybe your friends or family have Samsung handset... to find out.
If problem is on Handset... or on Gear S3 site...
Most of my problems I can solve easier, if I have more then1 device for test...
It is much harder to find reason or solution... if you have only 1 device and nothing to compare...

No its not that. The little button on the circuit board is messed up so even when its not pressed it thinks it is pressed and it thinks its staying pressed so it turns off and on by itself

You tried meanwhile second Handset...
To be sure your handset/Gear Manager combination is fine... and problem is on Gear...
Or maybe your Gear is supidupi okay... but something happens to your handset...
Maybe any kind of Updates...
Maybe it is some Security "magic" like this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/gear-s2/general/gear-manager-modified-device-t3637273
Only you see no Message...
Without Logging or without trying every possible Combination it is hard, to find solution...
If you are not able to find self solution...
Visit Service Center or talk with your seller... or any friendly people with advanced skills and maybe with Samsung handset...
Best Regards

I can't install the gear app on my galaxy s3 because it's rooted but I have a feeling the problem is the gear app itself...maybe there is a bug and it will work when it is updated next. That's the only thing I can possibly think of

Also I have problem with galaxy app to gear s3.
I can't update and download application on galaxy app to gear s3. My phone is note 3 and rooted.

Tizen 4.0.0.7 upgrade ...?

Any chance that our Gear S3 Frontier will get the Tizen 4.0.0.7 upgrade like the Galaxy Watch ?
They are almost the same watches... and the new upgrade would bring some interesting things ...

Chance is very low in 2019... because only 1 month left...
But maybe in 2020...
Best Regards

I see many people buying S3 still. Prices are way down now so its a good deal. Would be shame if they wouldnt update. Im still waiting for HR alarms they promised long time ago. Manual of the device got already updated to have this functionality but the watch did not.

whats the difference between 4.0.0.4 and 4.0.0.7? I have both and the Galaxy watch did got an update few days ago(didn't checked the version tho) but not the S3, still running 4.0.0.4

I can't see any "signs" on SM-R600 nor Gear S3 family...
Maybe reached End of Live...
So I am pretty sure NO Firmware updates in 2019... for Gear S3.
whats the difference between 4.0.0.4 and 4.0.0.7?

I hear a lot of concerns about battery life, but on my G3 Frontier, which stays on 24/7, is worn all the time, save for a shower, having the flip wrist to wake up and rotate the bezel to wake up off, I'm getting a little over 3 1/2 days of battery life. My phone goes off at 11pm to 6am with no wi-fi to keep it connected. I can charge it on Sunday night, take it off the charger and put it on, and Thursday afternoon, the battery will be at 18%.
Anyone else get that kind of battery life?

Tiny steps forward...

Maybe 1 reason could be... Tizen Version 4.0.0.8
GWA2 have only 4.0.0.7 as latest...

Had to reset watch but now....

Samsung galaxy 9s+ connecting with Samsung frontier s3. Watch was starting to lose connection with phone. I did a reset on the watch but now when I go to start setup phone is not finding watch at all. Steps I've taken: clear cache on both Bluetooth and wearable, deleted and reinstalled wearable app, restarted phone and watch multiple times. But still the phone does not see my watch. My wife has the exact same watch and my app does see hers but not mine. Real head scratcher. Any help appreciated.:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

Welcome.
Please remember nobody of us have Crystal Ball.
"Frontier" means more then 7 deviceS... so Model Name is better.
SM-R765? Or SM-R765A or SM-R760 or?

Sorry again. I feel so dumb. Phone is SM G965U and watch is SM R760. Thanks again for your help.

Can you configure SM-R760 Standalone.. WITHOUT Phone... like in this Video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JmgmUW1lyyo&t=58s
Then check for:
Code:
WiFi/MAC Address
BT Address
Serial Number
No need to write here... I not need your Serial Number...
Only if these 3 infos avaliable or gone... then something happens to CSA partition...
Without BT Address SM-R760 can not connect...
Best Regards

Thanks for the quick reply. I had already configured without watch. All three numbers are there.

General Down side of this phone and review !!

Crazy throttle. cant even have a stable 60fps gaming drop frame frequently unless remove game optimise service. Hope for fix in future ota. Gpu speed wont even go more than 500mhz when we have 840mhz max speed. I know because i rooted my phone. Tested game pubg, freefire, lol wildrift , mobile legend
Small battery. if u use 120hz adaptive mode it wont even last for 3 hour normal usage. Fb whatapps kakao youtube etc...
Takes forever to charge. 0 to 100% 2 hour with my 90watt charger and 5a cable since this phone only support 15w
The rest is nothing major. Awesome phone.

It takes 1h 20 minutes with an 15W pd compatible charger. Battery is better then I expected. 15 hours with 5:30 SOT on second charge. It will get better when it's done learning your usage patterns. This is with adaptive refresh rate and enhanced processing on.
I don't know, nor do I care about games. This is not a gaming phone .

How’d you root it if I may ask? Do you have the snapdragon variant or is it exynos? (If the latter variant even exists)

All flip 3 use snapdragon no exynos.
Unlock bootloader power down and press both vol key and plug in usb after that follow on screen instruction. Same step to lock back for warranty purpose. After unlock still able to recieve ota.(unless install magisk)
Download flip 3 firmware according to your firmware model use google search for firmware or use frija.
Extract the firmware AP file and copy boot.img file then patch it with magisk. And flash the patch boot.img using odin

There are a couple for European countries. I'm waiting for sammobile to publish them.

Hi, have the Z Flip 3 Korean edition. No way to merge call?

Almost 1 year with it. beside the batery problem, I find the camera in this phone to be basic. I come from having galaxy s 21 wich has un amazing camera. There is only one thing why i have this phone. the size is so conevenient it fits in almos every pocket. when samsung find a way to add a great camera and great battery, the z flip wont have competitors.
