Hi!
I like S health app on my samsung gear s very much. But what can I do with data on my gear? Nothing. Because I don't own S5. It cannot be transferred to S4 Active or PC... Other sport app that I used to use (Runtastic), needs phone connection all the time. So whats the point hawing wach if you have to take your phone to a run anyway? What are the solutions for this problem. How can I syncronise S health to my mobile or PC? Any suggestions?
S Health was updated a month or so ago. Now even my S3 can sync and display S Health data. Your S4 should no be a problem
I'm happy for you, but in my case it's not working. Now i have Android 4.4.2 and my S Health version is 2.5.4.168 and cannot be updated.

My GS3 is running 4.4.2. You will need S Health 3.xx to get full support of Gear S. As far as I know it was available to all Samsung phones S3 and newer. Not sure why your didn't get the update. It was pushed down automatically from Samsung.
See this http://forum.xda-developers.com/gear-s/general/s-health-3-5-app-finally-available-to-t2945386
I have dowloaded 3.5 version and updated current (2.5.XXX) version, couldn't start the app...(I didn't download it from the store. It can't be found in the store.)
it needs bunch of services to be updated first. not an easy install if you manually install. It's a mess.
Now I'm thinking about to buy S5 active, would S health app in S5 Active synchronise data from my gear S?

It should as all S5 era phones (note 4, Alpha) come with S Health 3.xx. But with Samsung, you never know.

Anyone else having this issue? Tried unpairing, rebooting, restoring, uninstalling fit manager and s health on my S5. Nothing...

I am having the same problem, have pressed transfer on the phone and it says it works but can't see anything on the phone, all the notifications work correctly, but not the data transfer. Anyone have a idea how you see your sleep stats on the phone as well?
I have the S5

Have managed to get the pedometer to work, when on the pedometer screen, go to the settings top right corner and select device data to view, you can then pick the gear fit. Not sure if you can view the sleep data anywhere on the phone yet.

THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH!! You have no idea how long I spent trying to get this damn thing to work. When you pair a Fit it should ask you if you want to view it from phone or Fit. I actually had a support rep in their chat room tell me it's not possible.

I have also problem with S Health on my S4 (I9505). I can't connect Gear Fit with this app. But if you check Gear Fit Manager on S5 there is option S Health right in the main menu. But this option is missing in Gear Fit Manager on S4. And I don't know why? Also Gear Manager (not Gear Fit Manager) is not working on S4 with Gear Fit.

Wish i could offer more help, but the generic completely unsync the fit and try a resync. You would have thought the S health app would be the same. To import the details make sure you are on the pedometer screen and the pedometer is enabled on the Fit.
I hope there will be a lot of updates for S Health and Gear fit, as the sleep stats dont export anywhere and you can only view one days pedometer stats. I wish there was an exercise mode to monitor heart when lifting weights.

I tried to reset Gear Fit, re-install Gear Fit Manager, but nothing. I also reset all in S Health. S Health app needs still Gear Manager which is not working on S4 with Gear Fit and after this installation S Health writes only that I have to update Gear Manager but I have the newest version.
Why is Gear Fit Manager different on S5 and S4 ? Which version do you have?
They will probably fix it since people with s4 are a lot so I doubt Samsung will abandon them (us).

Are you on JB or Kit Kat? I think that has something to do with it.
hello guys, question, everytime I shutdown the gear fit and reboot it, I need to setup the settings all over again (wallpaper,profile, etch)is this normal? or just my unit? its annoying and the security pin is useless when you force shut it down, all the setting is reset

Hi, got the Gear Fit and used it with the S5 for a few days. Now I went back to my Note 3 and must recognize that the S5 Health App does not work the way it works on the S5
I finally managed to get the Pedometer info from my Fit to the Note 3 after downloading the new apk from this site. But there is still no Sleep button in the S Health App. Any idea, why not? Does the sleep information not sync with the app? Or is there a different work around for that.
Thanks

The S Health app does not have sleep tracking. To track your sleep (as well as heart rate and pedometer info) you need to uninstall the S Health app and install Fitness with Gear

Hi,
Today someone told me via Google Plus how to install Gear Manager on non-Samsung mobiles. His name is Serge Berig. So 100% Credits go to him. I am just posting here what he posted in Google Plus. His Phone is Moto X and Mine in LG G2. Worked perfectly fine.
My Test Scenarios:
1. LG G2 D802 Rooted. Rooting is not required as his Moto X is unrooted.
2. I am using a separate SIM on Gear S.
3. I have disabled mobile data and Wifi on both Gear S and my mobile
How it Works:
1. Download Gear Manager Latest Version and GearManagerStub.apk from this link: https://www.mediafire.com/folder/e7h23e12rzesi/Gear_Manager (Credit goes to the uploader)
2. Download these APK Files: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3uemtAJSY3PVDFiY0FsVGRLN28/view?usp=sharing (Credit goes to Serge)
3. Move these files to your phone.
4. 1st install Gear Manager, then GearManagerstb.apk, then all remaining apks.
5. Open Gear Manager on your phone and viola. It connects, Resets your Gear S in case you used it before and as far as i checked everything Works
I did not test each and everything. As far as i know most thing works. Previously i had "Connecting Forever" Issue, now it connects straight away. I am using my Gear S as complete independent to Mobile Calls and SMS from my Mobile. I have not set any forwarding options or notification for Call and SMS from my mobile to Gear S.
Pls post your results
What's not Working:
1. Can't Transfer Music/Images from Phone
2.
I was just coming here to post this.
I can confirm this works on my stock G3.
Works:
Calls work, but i had to switch to the phone then back to bluetooth. Initially there was no audio. However that may have been a glitch, because it works after that without flipping back.
Notifications (you have to allow Gear Manager access to the notifications in Android System Menu)
Home Screen Styler
Find My Gear
Contacts pull down to Gear
Not Working:
Music player seems to be controlled through Gear Manager and not A2DP. So we may have to install Samsung Music player. Still investigating.
Transferring files to the Gear through Gear Manager crashes goproviders.apk. This also broke my notifications. Had to reboot the phone to get it back working.
Call Logs dont pull down
Weather app is missing
Receiving SMS in the watch SMS app. You get the notifications just fine, but the GEAR SMS app can't sync your conversations

I would imagine there is a newer goprovider.apk. The one he posted is 2.0.337.337. Thats the older one from the Gear 1/2 Gear Manager.
All the Samsung Gear S apps are version 2.2 and up. I was experimenting with the old Gear Manager and got similar crashes.
Just thought I'd chime in and let you know that I have the same version on my Note 4 with the Gear S. 2.0.337
Thanks for checking on that. It's got to be a missing lib or some TouchWiz framework.
It's not even a feature I care about, but i'm sure it will be needed later.
I'm still trying to find a fix for the music player controls.

Did you install the Stub Manager and all the 8 or so other APK's?
If you skipped the initial activation screen, make sure bluetooth is on, on the Gear S.
Also, try unpairing in the phone bluetooth menu then reopen Samsung Gear manager.

yes i installed the latest gear manager app as well as stub manager apk and other apks provided
this is my first time setting this watch up. my devices pair up but when i go to paired devices in the gear manager and try to connect, on my phone it says "connecting to gear" and the gear just has the "to connect to your mobile device, select the name of this gear in the samsung gear application" message
*EDIT*
got it working . i uninstalled everything that dealt with the gear under app manager in my phone and unpaired the device under bluetooth and re-installed everything again. it re-paired itself and it is working now.
I must have missed an APK somewhere
Glad to hear you got it working. Try some of things I listed as not working and see if you have different results. The more info we have, the better!
Music and images not worming here as well.
if I disconnect from Bluetooth my calls don't get forwarded to my watch. Can't send out text messages as well
Yeah I just want to chime in saying this isn't a fully working solution, but it works enough to keep me satisfied for now.
I'm sure as we get more people wearing these, more will jump on board to fix the issues we have.

I just got what I believe is my second firmware update to ANJ7. (Not a Gear Manager update)
Got update today on Nike app, says syncs with shealth. Don't see how or where to sync
You need the update of s health as well. .. Just got it installed on my note 4. Now I see nike+ integrated in s health...
Thanks. Dumb q. How do you get the shealth update? My galaxy store doesn't show my apps some lollipop
I Dont see anything about sheal in the Nike + running app or s health and they're both updated
I updated everything and I see nothing.
Can you please tell us what to do?
S Health is not a simply app update. Samsung managed to create segmentations on S Health, e.g. each different phone models see different versions of S Health only. My Galaxy Alpha only sees S Health 3.5 that was last updated on Jan 2015.
I downloaded the new apk and updated by myself. Yes, now Nike is in S Health.

I don't know where to download it. My phone shows S Health app in Galaxy app store when it was on 4.4.4. But now with 5.0.2, it no longer shows. S Health is not a simple app to update. It depends on all kind of Samsung services to work. Samsung managed to get million different version of S Health targeting million different models of Samsung phone. I typically just wait and once in a while Samsung will push the S Health update to my phone.
Or you can search for S Health APK but keep in mind it may not work for you specific phone.
Odd thing. Updated to lollipop on my Note 4. S-Health is version 4.1.1.0037. It also now shows up in the Google Play Store as well as the Galaxy Apps store.
Casual jogging.
I've been using Gear S and Nike+ for running on a weekly basis. Here are some battery saving tips I have developed. My watch has no SIM card, so no battery drain that way. I use it simply as a GPS distance-measuring + MP3 player over BT mix.
1) Go to Settings just before a run and turn on "GPS". Usually it gets a signal pretty quickly. Then go to "motions" and disable all. Also, go to S Heath and disable the Pedometer.
2) If you jog with musicConnect your BT headphones. Turn on the Music from the Music player, as Nike does not know how to shuffle (whatever, Nike).
3) Go into Nike+ app, decline Music and Cheer requests. Wait a couple minutes, start your run and watch for the green GPS dot to appear.
When all goes as planned, I get more than two hours battery life (estimated). Went down from 90% to 40% battery life during an 1:25 hour 10 mile run. In theory, if you run fast enough Half-Marathon should be no problem, and if you do not use BT for Music at all, then it can probably go more than 3 hours on a single charge with Motion and Pedometer off. Good enough for casual jogging.
This watch is awesome for casual running. Share your tips, if you have any! Thanks!

There is a Running feature in S Health.
For those that updated, can you still use Nike+ or do you now need to use sHealth, because Nike is integrated into it?
I run every day, and switched from sHealth to Nike+ 2 months ago because the GPS signal would take forever to lock in sHealth. How are things after the update? Is sHealth faster? Nike+ slower?
I keep using the NIKE+ for running, but after the update GPS took about 5-7 minutes to lock...will retry again today or tomorrow.

Thank you thank you!! I have not even looked into possibly updating until I hear user feedback, as I was afraid it may slow down the GPS. Can't wait to hear back from you or others after you next run.
Is anything else new or different?
One more question: does Nike now track your HR? On my Gear S, it never did. Just wondering if that has changed since the update.
Thanks!
HR works for me sometimes, depending on how sweaty my hand is + hair . But it is imprecise, as far as I gather.
GPS lock now takes forever. .. ran yesterday and it pretty much skipped the first 750 meters + fooled around with the watch 5 mins beforehand. It still counts the distance though. I never carry the phone with me though.

Thanks strikey17. Is there any benefit to the upgrade that you can see, then? Sounds to me like I should make sure it does not install, if it only slows down the GPS.

How Can I use S health in my Gear S2 to running then sync data with nike+ App?
Nothing to do with the watch app. Nike+ phone app now supports sync data into S Health phone app. Not the other ways around. Your watch S Health app already sync data with S Health app on the phone. So here is how it goes:
Nike+ watch app -> Nike+ phone app->S Health phone app
S Health watch app -> S Health phone app

There is a procedure call side-load (you can google it if you wish) but personally I don't recommend it. Apps published on Samsung Gear Apps pass a certification process just to avoid malware and incompatibilities with the Gear S device.
If you side-load apps from wherever you can take risk!
