Hello,
My girl rooted (root access is fully given (Zygisk, Ramdisk)) her Z-Flip3 some days ago. Now she can't connect to her Smart watch (Samsung Watch Active) anymore. There's always a screen which says both devices are pairing but that's it. The process keeps stucking there.
I've been plumbing away a whole day searching a workable solution but nothing worked.....
That's what I've tried so far...
Magisk Module - Use Galaxy Wearable App With Any Custom ROM

did you try patching the bluetooth library (it's quite an old patch but worth a try)

Before the update there was neve a Problem.

I have called the Samsung seevice but they cant help.
I cant use my Gear S2 with the Gear S2 Plugin
Have anyone the same problem can anyone help?
I have exactly the same problem. Received Gear S2 for Christmas and Gear Manager App has exactly the same problem as you. I have a Note 3 phone. It's a very bad experience when both my sons have iwatches and do not have any problems with their devices.

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?

This thread suggests that the option to answer calls on BT-only watches works only with Samsung phones: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gear-s2/help/question-answering-call-watch-t3251133

thanks for your reply and help. i did read that..but some people said it used to work..was wondering which version worked..
silly of samsung to disable this feature.
I still have an option to answer a call on my s2 classic. I hope it wouldn't just disappear like the messaging on the 4 app shortcut widget.
I recently went between an s7 edge and a pixel with my gear s2. I noticed I was no longer able to take calls on the watch when I went over to my pixel, but it was not a problem when using my s7 edge.
I figured it out. I don't know why, but I can say for certain that when a gear watch connects to a samsung phone, it defaults to the connection being a media and phone device (rather than the low-powered mode that, say, android wear watches do). Automatically. Always. On my pixel, the connection as a media and phone device must be initiated manually.
On my pixel I went to bluetooth devices and connected to my gear s2, which connected as a media and phone device. After that, the watch will answer phone calls on the watch directly. This all makes sense. The only difference is that on my pixel (anything other than my samsung phone actually), it does not default to connecting to the watch as a media/phone device (only low-powered peripheral).
Hope that helps.
I know this is old, but I wanted to offer a solution to the same problem I faced with a ZTE Blade Max. Goto bluetooth settings and click S2 in paired items then settings or options, then tick the option for phone audio. Problem solved!

Hi there! I've tried to use this solution but I can't find any kind of option as the one you suggest. I have a Xiaomi Redmi note 7. Is there any other option you can offer? Thank you so much for your time!
you have to change your build.prop to show a samsung device. cent remember where it is in the build.prop, but im fairly certain that this is the issue. This popped up pretty frequently back when the watches first came out and i had to do this myself as i was running an AOSP ROM on my old S5 when i got my first smartwatch (Gear 2 Neo) until i flashed android wear on it and no longer had the option to answer calls at all on my watch
So it seems that the Here wego maps/navigation app is not available for the s3 if you aren't using a Samsung phone. (I happen to use an LG v20)
Has anyone found a way to side load the app? Or what is the best alternative maps application for the s3?
Ok I found a way around the issue for anyone watching this thread... It's a little crazy and not for everyone.... I happen to have a Samsung Galaxy S7 as a work phone... I connected my S3 to that phone, where it installed HERE by default.... I then backed up the watch to my samsung account and then reconnected the watch to my LG V20 and restored the backup which included HERE.... Boom.... Problem solved
That's strange.. I got my S3 R-760 back in October 2017 from the UK. Immediately paired to a Sony Z5 and has been like that ever since, even after the ROM updates. One of the first things I did was to install HERE. Can't remember how exactly but it wans't a hassle so I assume straight from the watch or the store. I guess it has been removed after I installed it. Using it now as a standalone, no connection to the phone is required, just direct connection to the internet via wifi or hotspot. Of course I do not have the convenience of using it through the phone which could make it easier to search etc, but it is good enough.
Nice workaround you found, but for those that do not have the option of a Samsung phone, this thread could help: https://forum.xda-developers.com/gear-s3/help/wego-t3724511/page3
Hmm - I downloaded from Google onto my OnePlus 5T, installed on watch from Gear store and that was it.
UK / stock OnePlus 5T
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.
Hello
I have an active watch 2 and a watch 3 and I had no problem pairing them with my Note 10 Lite.
thank you, is your lite rooted?
No, I don't really see the point anymore.

Hi, I own a tab s6 lte, rooted with magisk.
My situation is that the tablet is my daily device, which does not support the galaxy watches series. The Wearable app does not show up options to pair with samsung smartwatches, and the galaxy store return errors saying my tablet is not supported whenever I try to use the "Watch" section in the store.
However, I followed this guide and got my watch paired with the tablet: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...h-a-rooted-galaxy-tab-s4-android-9-0.3931474/
So turns out this is just a cheap software-wise trick from samsung, my watch got access to the galaxy store, but not for long. As soon as I connect the watch to the tablet through bluetooth (after rebooting from resetting the custom fingerprint and props), the galaxy store stop working, for both of my devices. So every time I need to update my apps on galaxy store, or want to download an app, I have to change the fingerprint, and set custom props. I can't stay with the custom identity, as some of the props, especially setting "ro.build.characteristics" to "phone" make my ui looks weird and "overly compact"
So I'm looking for a solution to help running just 2 selected specific apps with custom fingerprint and props, hoping anyone can help.
