You may try to upgrade/downgrade the Samsung gear manager that may help you clear cache and data under phone settings for each gear app then delete it and reinstall
It's dead, confirmed by service
Hello everybody. I received a new Gear S has a present. Yesterday it was working, but today everytime I connect it to the phone, a message appers saying "The program saproviders has stopped", making the phone unusable. every time I click ok it keeps popping up agian until I disconnect the gear.
I have a Samsung S4 with Thunder Universe Rom, that I was using with the Gear 1 with no problem whatsoever. The fact that I don't understand is why it was working yesterday with the gear S (just paired and use it out of the box), but it is not working today. I did not do anything exept charging the gear.
i tried unpairing the Gear 1, I thought there could have been some conflict, but did not make any difference.
I tried to uninstall and install the gear manager and pair the Gear S again, same problem. I tried uninstalling the saproviders application using TB, it reinstalls immediately by itself and keep crushing as soon as I connect the gear.
it works only if I freeze saproviders, but of course this limits some functionalities (like controlling music from the phone, for example).
I don't think it has anything to do with the ROM, because it was working yesterday with the same ROM. It is driving me insane.
Any ideas?
thank you very much in advance!

Try to Reset your gear S to factory definitions.
I have the Gear S and the Note 4 (both through T-Mobile). I have noticed that when I move out of bluetooth range of my phone, the watch connects remotely so that I can take calls on the watch, but when I come back within bluetooth range of the phone the watch will not automatically reconnect via bluetooth. It remains connected remotely (even when the phone and the watch are sitting right next to one another). Am I doing something wrong, or am I just going to have to reestablish the bluetooth connection manually?

It not gonna reconnect right away. Blue tooth would have to be scanning non stop. Then people will complain about battery dying fast. Also it takes about 10 min for it to search and connect depending on your phone.
BAD ASS NOTE 4 + BAD ASS GEAR S
Thanks a lot. That explanation actually makes a lot of sense.
That's not quite how Bluetooth works, however this fix for this issue is straight forward.
Un install Samsung Gear from your phone. Reset your Gear S, install Samsung Gear, reconnect phone and restore data.
Bluetooth should re connect within seconds after you walk away from your phone.
This broke because of an issue in an update patch to the Samsung Gear software. The patch does not upgrade the software properly, and a re installation is required.
I had the same issue with my Note Edge and Gear S.
Fixed now though.
I had the same issue and re installed yesterday and it connected. What I found to be annoying was I had to completely delete Samsung app store from note or I couldn't install apps from Sammy. It would download then during install process it would fail with error code -112 . It may have something to do with when I fix permission in recovery but it only started doing that after latest update. It's annoying but I guess the temp solution is easy to fix
I have similar problem with bluetooth. When I turn off bluetooth and then turning on the Gear won't to connect. On the phone request pair code for bluetooth appears, but on Gear appears: GT-I9301I is attepting to connect to your Gear. To connect to GT-I9301I, the gear will be reset to its factory settings..When the device is reset, it connect properly and everything work fine until I turn bluetooth off. Then again want to reset the device. My Gear is SM-R750A and phone is GT-I9301I. I try to re-install Gear Manager, reset phone, reset Gear, but still have tis problem.

I have made a thread describing how to fix this....In a nut shell you need to completely uninstall gear mgr and galaxy apps and delete the apps in gear manager under the manage apps then click all which is beside the updates tab. Also uninstall all updates to galaxy apps. This will fix issue. here is the xda thread link. Follow it to a t and you will be good l. Let me know your outcome.

I try this, but didn't work. I think the problem is Bluetooth of the phone, becouse I paired Gear S with two different phone and work fine. Also when I try to pair phone with bluetooth in car it appears same problem - connect only first time. Is there any way to re-install the Bluetooth or to change driver or something like that.
Try deleting data in app manager for anything bluetooth related. Factory reset phone if that doesn't work. If you are on a custom rom reinstall rom and see if that helps, research if a different kernel works better. Good luck
Turn off "Use Remote Connection" in the Gear S app settings on your phone. Problem solved
Actually, ignore my previous response, that did not solve the issue.
What did, however, was unpairing then reparing the Gear S to my phone. No problems since

I had the same issue and used the suggestion above and it didn't work.
I uninstalled on the device, reset gear, then reinstalled on device and reconnected...bluetooth did connect. I walked away came back and the gear didn't reconnect automatically. I had to reconnect from the phone side. THIS SUCKS!!!
Anyone have any other suggestions? i have gear s and NOTE 3 (android 5.0)

Note 5 and Gear S not reconnecting automatically
My New Note 5 has the same problem, not reconnecting after phone and watch are back together. I have to manually flip on phone use in bluetooth settings. This is still after factory resetting phone and watch. Is there any updated fixes

gear s cyanogenmod os unable to connect to galaxy s4
Hello
I have installed cyanogenmod 12.1 in my gear s. Now trying to pair the gear s by installing samsung gear app in mobile (S4) but mobile is unable to find my gear s. then i tried android wearable app. In android wearable it detects the gear s but for long time unable to sync the data. I also found that bluetooth gets disconnected (either from gear s or S4 that unable to understand). Please help how do i pair my S4 with gear s. DO i have to install any software in gear s?
Hello someone managed to solve even me notes 3 and gear s when disconnected with the bluetooth will not re connects
This all started when I reset my phone and watch. I restored the phone through Kies (I have a Note 4). The apps I downloaded from the Gear Store no longer work after reset so I uninstall from the phone and reinstall. When this happens, my notification options in Gear Manager for Email and Messages disappear. So I no longer get alerts for these 2 apps (using stock on both). This is what I've tried so far to get it back:
Force stop Gear Manager, clear data
Stop Bluetooth on phone and restart
Reboot Watch
Reboot Phone
Uninstall/Reinstall Gear Manager
The only way to get it back is to reset the watch. I don't know if it has anything to do with the phone backup I did in Kies, because I reinstalled CarOO Gear and it didn't mess up. The app it just happened with is Wrist List
Do I need to have a active sim card in it, it connected to gear manager got 4 files pushed to it and then my note edge sat there for at least 30 minutes I guess saying connecting to gear s still when I got back from leaving them at home and running to the store.
Gear Manager shows the Gear S but its just a blank Orange titled and white bodied app page with nothing on it however after rebooting the gear s it still shows me the welcome setup page.
What can I do, I've said it once and I'll say it a thousand more times, Gear Manager and Samsung really made a epic fail at the software and syncing side of these damn watches, made it such a pain in the ass that they almost aren't worth owning cause of it.
Really guys, no one??? XDA's evergrowing helpful community at it's finest!!!
I tried resetting all the gear manager related app's on my phone, but now it won't go through initial setup it just loads Gear Manager and then asks me to choose my Gear device either Galaxy Gear or Gear S
Then when I choose Gear S it loads a new screen that acts as if it froze and never fully loaded with a orange title header that says Gear S and a blank white body
Gear Assistant and Old Gear Manager is giving me a bluetooth pairing confirmation pin.... Getting a lil closer, but then out of nowhere something happened and bluetooth started turning off in the middle of everything on the Gear and now I'm not getting the pairing pin again and getting bluetooth timed out error message.
Had to factory reset my Note Edge in order to get it successfully connect in gear manager(Latest version)... Which is stupid.
