You need a Samsung phone to set up the watch and use it...

With limited functions you can setup it without samsung phone... For example I use it with Sony Z1 and notifications work, but all samsung apps(which need samsung account) do not work...

I don't know if firmware update work on application because my watch has been shipped with R750XXU1BNJ7 which I think is latest version... Gear Store doesn't work...

Check out "Notifications for Gear S". You can download it from the regular Google Playstore, and it allows you to answer texts/whatsap/viber, etc. I don't know if it will work with your specific phone, but it's only $1.25 I think, and does more than the native notifications do.
ETA: Sammy also offer it in their app store, but the dev says update cycles take much longer there.

Thanks for your fast reply xendula & _Dejan_ ,
I think that on android 5.0 don't work the "Gear Manager" because I follow step by step the instructions and don't work for me. When I open the app Gear Manager, this stopped with an error. I think that this error is produced by Android Lolipoop.
Tomorrow, I try with motorola moto g to view if it is posible work with this smartphone.
Thanks for all !

Application/Widget .wgt files for non samsung users

Hi,
Can someone upload .wgt files for most usefull applications or widgets for gear s that users which have non samsung phones can use some applications/widgets on their watch?
I like design of Samsung gear S watch more than LG or Motorola smartwatch but I don't wan't change current Sony z1 phone only for reason that I can install additional widgets/apps on watch... Notifications already work as must but for example I would like setup:
Endomondo

THIS is true you can blame that on the DEVs most of the Gear S apps are just re branded Gear 2 apps it seems as if these app developers don't even own a Gear S they just make an app and assume Tizen is universal well it is not and they need to actually make apps to fit and work properly with our Gear S

[Q] Unable to pair Gear S with S3 neo

On November 2014 I bought Gear S which i paired with my samsung galaxy s3 neo. Sometimes the smart watch stopped to work and I was able to reactivate the Gear S only after resetting it.
On 23 February after experiencing another arrest of the Gear s I downloaded from Galaxy apps the latest version of gear manager (2.2.14110499). After I have installed the gear manager I wasn’t able to reactivate my gear s although it paired with my galaxy S3 neo. In particular the gear manager is not able to download the additional software and I receive the following message: “Unable to connect to the gear. Connection to the gear is not supported by your mobile device…” Moreover just beneath the above message appear a writing during just some seconds stating: “Download url not available, can’t launchPlugin!”
What is not working? My gear s or the new gear manager?
Can someone help me? Thanks

I'm using Android 4.4.2
Hmmm. Well, in order for the S to be compatible with your Samsung phone, you have to have 4.4+, non-mod touchwiz, and the gear manager (and the supporting apps... Sam Store, IAP, etc).
Is it a custom ROM or stock? If stock, when was your last OTA update?

I think I found fraud. For some days now in the official Samsung website (at least in the Italian site) neo s3 is no longer listed among the smart phones compatible with Gear S. Is this behavior legal? I hope Samsung solves this mess as soon as possible.

Maybe you can install apk first form google play and the wgt from app ?
I might have the ability to get a samsung phone from a friend for a short time, how do you pull the wgt files from the watch, where are the wgt files located on the phone?
You must root and all files you find in /data/data/com.samsung.android.hostmanager/files/hmBackup/SM-R750

This app is only available if you reside in the U.S. And only available on select GALAXY devices..SEE HERE.
Even further complications to get this app on a Non-Samsung device are as follows;
1 - Samsung account is required.
2 - One of the supported devices must be registered via Samsung account.
Basically unless you have one of the supported devices the app wont even show in the app store to download. The app knows the device your using and syncs via Samsung and account.
The only way youre going to be able to trick that app is to manually change your build.prop device name to a supported samsung device, somehow register a supported samsung device on your account, as well the regional location issue if located outside U.S which Samsung will know via ip address.
Good Luck! And no offense to anyone but that app is by Samsung and for Samsung unfortunately, if you want/wanted that specific app you should/should've get/got a Samsung device.

SHealth available for all Android devices

Yesterday SHealth app became available for all android devices to prepare for Gear S2 to work on non-Samsung devices.
It works also with Gear Fit. If you have a non-Samsung device, you need to change a ro.product.brand line in build.prop to:
Code:
ro.product.brand=samsung
Now after reboot you should see all compatible devices in Accesories tab in SHealth. You need to have Gear Fit Manager installed and connected with your Gear Fit.
I have 5.1.1 stock Sony Xperia Z ROM with Gear Fit Manager from here and SHealth app always shows 0 steps in pedometer tab and doesn't get Sleep/Heart Rate data, but received weight info from Gear Fit. Maybe it will work on non-Samsung devices with another version of Gear Fit Manager or another ROM, you can try and write here.
Play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sec.android.app.shealth
Nope. Your solution doesn't works for me.
OnePlus One 5.1.1
What do you mean? If you don't see Gear Fit on Accesories list, try to change ro.product.manufacturer to samsung, ro.product.name and ro.product.device to zeroltetmo.
I have this configuration and Gear Fit is on the list:
Code:
ro.product.brand=samsungs
ro.product.manufacturer=samsungs
ro.product.name=zeroltetmo
ro.product.device=zeroltetmo
ro.build.product=zeroltetmo
zeroltetmo is the code name of Galaxy S6 Edge.

Ok, I saw all accessories but the fit manager doesn't pair with FIT now.
I get back to my original build.prop.
Hope Samsung will release an update soon for Shealth that allow us to fully sync with FIT.

Maybe this happens because you do have a Samsung phone.
Do you still have TouchWiz ROM?
I tried but it fails on my OnePlus.
Can someone else try with a not-samsung device?

yea i using stock touchwiz rom , but a3 does not support gear fit
so i use the patch version on xda , modify build.prob samsung to blablabla
TouchWiz is the secret.
I think this sync will never work on any other ROM unless samsung release a fix.
@garrax do u mean s health is working with a non samsung device when touchwiz is running?
is it possible to install touchwiz on htc one mini 2 ?

Gear Fit Manager on Nexus 5 (Marshmallow)?

Has anyone gotten the Gear Fit to connect to the Nexus 5 on Android 6.0? I've tried everything I can find and nothing is working...
You can use My App Open Fit Until there is an Official Fix:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gear-fit/themes-apps/openfit-source-gear-fit-application-t3005697
That's what I've been using, it's GREAT by the way!
Open fit has stopped working for me date and time are not updating
I thought it was just me. Stock, rooted Marshmallow.
Sent from my Nexus 6 using XDA Free mobile app
Any new progress on this topic?
My gear fit has a default language of Chinese and though open fit allows me to connect my nexus 5 w/ marshmallow, it does not switch the language to English like the official gear fit manager does.

I was thinking I need to add this feature. I will try very hard to get it in, as my last feature.. How do I go about changing the language via Gear Fit Manager? I need to do it to reverse engineer the packet. thanks
