The same problem I've..... After turn off bluetooth and than turn on i can only see "Gear Fit Manager was closed" and again and again... Please help.
I called Samsung I was told to send back my phone with watch but I think I have found solution. When my Fit was connected with phone I connected to phone my headphones. After this operation everything works great. Gir fit manager is no more close. Maybe it' ll help you as well.
I encountered a strange problem that happened at the beginning when my Gear S was connected to my Wife´s Note 4 and now it happened with my Note EDGE:
On Saturday connection was just normal (as it was for the entire week since I have my Note EDGE), but when I tried to connect on Sunday the pop-up window "connecting" with the circling circle appeared, never vanished and Gear Manager hung up, BUT: when looking into BT-connections it stated: connected, when looking on my Gear S BT-state told me: not connected.
Had to uninstall Gear Manager, reset Gear S, reinstall from scrap, now it´s working again.
Anybody has a clue why and how this happens and how to solve ? It is tremendously annoying to reset the Gear S once a week and reinstall everything from the scrap, loosing all S Health data on the watch .............
(Sorry: did a search in XDA on this topic but did not find anything, so if already a therad concerning this exists: maybe I am too dumb for a correct search.....)
I think I am having a similar issues. My excercise is logged on my watch, but won't sync with shealth.

how can I fix it, please help me.thx.
I've found that there are apps that cause the Bluetooth not to automatically reconnect once you're back by your phone. Is this what you're talking about? If so start deleting one app at a time and reboot every time.

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
After a fresh rom wipe it was connecting awhile in gear manager and then one day led to two days and then three days to four days and so on no successful connection in gear manager...
I don't wanna have to custom recovery wipe my phone every time I want it to connect, I really wished they would've locked a connection to the watch and phone...
Not sure if it's cause of my custom kernel, kernel settings app.
Is there a way to lock in a connection, I noticed sometimes on my watch while trying to connect to gear manager if I stop it the watch says bluetooth lost or something along those lines of not connected.
I'm running Hyperdrive Note Edge N915T KitKat 4.4.4 NK3 Low Lying Fruit Kernel and Gear S TizenMod Experimental Build OA7 R750T.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Even with older Gear Manager every time I click connect I get a message that says Bluetooth has been disconnected WTF samsung you're doing it backwards!!
Hi,
I have my Gear Fit 2 paired with my Galaxy S8. Everything worked just perfect until now. I used to disconnect Bluetooth on my phone to save battery, when I know there is Wifi available, so my Gear Fit 2 can connect to my phone Remotely.
But today, all of a sudden, this stopped working. Even at home, where I know wifi works perfectly. The watch connects fine to my Home Wifi, as always, but never connects to the Gear App. I have reinstalled the App and Restore defaults on my watch (twice) and can't put it back to work. The option is obviously enabled on the Gear App.
I have no idea how can I troubleshoot this further. I am realy frustrated. The only thing I didn't do is Wipe the S8... which I would like to avoid at all cost...
Some help, please? Thank you.
