Hi all I have a galaxy gear watch, but can't pair with my galaxy mega 6.3 for sprint... Is there any custom rom or work around to get this to work? I do know once watch is rooted, can work with other devices.,. But I have to pair to a device I don't have to get this freaking pair screen to go away first... Just trying to save hassle of going to bestbuy and pairing to their devices or someone else just because of the lock screen..

You can try installing the Galaxy Gear Manager app from the Samsung Apps app, you should be able to sync the Gear with the app. If it doesn't show in the Samsung Apps Store, you would need to search for, download, and sideload the apk file. If not, flash the "_null rom" onto your watch...

Get the apk from your friend and install it on your phone.

I wish I could. But he figured out what I was talking about and his update won't install either. I just converted him from iPhone so he doesn't really know much about what he is doing.

Noooooo its a Mega problem. Note 3 has version 2.5 and Mega has 2.0. They won't work together properly when you can actually get in the megas group play app.
I pulled the group play from her note 3 and it will not install on the Mega. Check the group play feedback in Samsung apps store. Almost all complaining Mega so t update

The problem is the app shouldn't be attempting to update in the first place. If you are quick enough to select one of the options before the update message comes up then you can bypass the update and use the app. The problem is on Samsung's end and is not the device itself. As stupid as it may sound the app is only supported on Galaxy Note 3 and the S4. Why that is I have no idea but its a joke on Samsung's part since they preloaded it on the phones. If you go to samsung app store on desktop computer it shows this as well. F* you Samsung you suck in my book now.

i got it all worked out after rooting. backed up the group play, removed it, installed the note 3 group play and it worked but would force close creating. removed note 3 group play and reinstalled the older version the mega came with. went into samsung app store, update still failed. uninstalled via samsung market, while staying on the group play app page, reinstalled and now it works normal with the updated version
confusing i know. its not as good as the note 3 group play. i grabbed the games thru the wifes note 3 too and it plays well with the mega note on group play games. Mucis doesnt work between the two.
Group play is a joke on the mega. I read somewhere the 4.4 update supposed to fix it all. so 1 more year before att update mega to 4.4
New at&t ota update fixes the problem. I dont have any issues with Group Pl a y since updating.
Hi,
I have the chance of buying a Galaxy S4 zoom but need to know whether it works with the Galaxy Gear or not? I have a Galaxy Gear (Original Galaxy Gear 1) already and don't want to render it useless should I chop in my Galaxy S3 for the S4 zoom!!
Thanks
Yes it does. I have gear version 1. Works fine with zoom S4 on latest 4.2.2

Thank you for letting me know. The version I have a chance of getting is the SM-C105 presumably that's not going to make a difference?!
Did you just download the Galaxy Gear app from the Samsung App Store? Or did you force install the Galaxy Gear app itself?
Also do you have full functionality or have you lost some features like people say the weather doesn't sync, the notifications, etc...??
No you don't need to download gear manager. Just follow the instructions in the Gear box. Turn on nfc and it will connect and start the Gear manager download for you.
I have full functionality. I think people with issues have either messed with or installed non standard software first.
My phone and gear are absolutely stock firmwares with no mods.

I don't understand how you were able to get the Gear to work with the Zoom running the stock rom 4.2.2. When I use the NFC to pair the devices, it opens the Samsung App store on the Zoom and attempts to download the Gear Manager app but I get an error that says "Product does not exist in this store. (4002)"
Is there something that I am missing? Could it be possible that there's a difference between your stock rom 4.2.2 SM-C101 and the one I have SM-C105A?

Hmm ok, this doesn't sound as promising now!!
I don't suppose anyone is able to definitely confirm that the Galaxy Gear works with the Galaxy S4 Zoom?
I've double checked today and its actually the SM-C101 model I have a chance of getting... OR I can now get a Galaxy S4. So I need to be absolutely sure that I can use my Gear with the Zoom, otherwise I'll go for the S4
After extensive research and numerous attempts, I finally broke down and decided to root my sisters S4 Zoom so that it would be compatible with the Gear.
It was really easy to get setup and probably took 45 mins total, I just never did it before because I tried to get it connected without root.

I didn't need to root to get mine to work. Worked straight out the box.

Thanks for the replies. Hopefully the SM-C101 will just work on stock then?
Its odd as there is hardly any info on people sucessfully connecting their Gear to the S4 zoom. Maybe its just because there wasn't many S4 zooms sold??

Is that from the 'Samsung Store'?
I'm getting the same error message when it asks me to download an update for their Video Editor!
Yes. That was from the Samsung store. My FW version is C105AUCUAMJ2 if that helps.

Hi,
I just noticed that fitness with gear is no longer available on the german samsung appstore/galaxy store.
Its still listed in galaxy essentials, but if i click on the list entry for details it say "no data".
Searching after the app also brings no results.
Tested with galaxy s4 active on kitkat 4.4.2
2 or 3 days before it all did work...
Is samsung preparing for something in the background?
Can anybody confirm my observations?

I was so glad to find that someone posted the Samsung Fitness with Gear App. Thank you.
It's actually still there, but you have to look in Exclusives then Galaxy Essentials. You can't really search for it anymore. Really annoying.

I broke out my old S2, rooted it with CM11, running KitKat, edited build.prop to reflect an S4. Once I edited build.prop I was able to download and install Gear Manager directly from Galaxy Apps. It launches fine, but I can't get it to find my Gear S, any ideas?
Galaxy 2 has bluetooth 3.0, I think the S is on 4.0

What build of gear manager are you using? I was successful in getting the Gear S to mate with my Note 2 using 1.6 or 1.7 (can't remember) but then it auto upgraded to 2.2 and the watch still worked.
Now that I'm using a note 4, I have other issues with the watch and the phone such as the contact list and s-voice.
Root works fine for me all my Android gadgets have been rooted no problems here. If you need a Specific gear manager let us know I'm sure someone can come up with one for you. the GS will work on S3 and up you can spoof all you'd like but the hardware is needed for the models of S3 and newer
You can also grep logcat for "Host" (adb> logcat | grep "Host") and check out the HostManager output. When I tried to run Gear Manager on an AT&T S3 mini it was spitting out an error that told me why it wouldn't show the S. (The error basically said that the host needed 1GB of RAM.)
Worked great on my note 4 rooted. Had to reset both watch and app on phone.
BAD ASS NOTE 4 + BAD ASS GEAR S
I loved my s2, this looks like the best solution for hooking it up to your Gear S.
You have to get up to bluetooth 4.0 it allows for data collection.
