[Q] Pairing the Gear S with the Galaxy S4 from Verizon?

I want to get a Galaxy S4 with Verizon but I don't know if it will work with Gear S. I have a Gear 2 and plan to get a Gear S as well. Today I went to a Verizon Store and tried to install Gear Manager in a display model Galaxy S4 and couldn't find Galaxy Esentials or Galaxy Apps to download Gear Manager. I asked a rep there and he even tried to download the app in his personal Galaxy S4 with Verizon and nothing. Is it the Gear Manager isn't compatible with the Galaxy S4? Has anyone here been able to pair his S4 with a Gear S or a Gear 2?
Thanks

IIRC, Galaxy Apps used to be called Samsung Apps. Samsung just rebranded it recently. Launch Samsung Apps app on the phone and you will get updated to Galaxy Apps. The Gear Manager is still there regardless how the store names called. I don't have Verizon phones, so I can't confirm it.
I have a verizon note 3 and a t-mobile Gear S and paired them just fine. It is a bit confusing at first because I couldn't find the gear manager either. I went into Samsung Apps and didn't see it but it then asked me to upgrade. The upgrade ran and than Gear Manager was installed by default on my phone in the Samsung folder under name of Samsung Gear.
Thanks for your replies. Regarding the Verizon Note 3 paired with the T-mobile Gear S, can you use all the functions of the watch. How much do you pay to T-mobile month by month?
Yes, I can use all the functions of the watch. At least all that I tried so far. I pay them $15 a month.

Your Carrier should not matter anything Samsung S3 and up running 4.3+ will work fine. Demo probably did not work because it was in store mode/had a older firmware
I have an old rrrrraaaagedy Verizon Note 2 running a banging 4.4.2 ROM and you know what? The Gear S works with it like a damn dream. I may never need a new Note phone at this pace.
Why would you get an S4 instead of an S5 though ... eeeek.

Agreed. The S Health on the watch will only sync properly with S Health app on S5, Note 4 or Alpha. Older phones don't work. However, I found none of the Samsung phones attractive at all. I'd stick with my Nexus 5 instead

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?

Not sure what is Cyanogenmod for Gear S. I assume it is full blown Android OS? Gear Manager only works for Tizen based OS running on Gear S. AW only works with AW OS watch.

gear s connect to samsung tab a

Hi guys
I recently purchased a new gear s and thought i was doing the right thing by purchasing a samsung tab A t550 to run gear manager to get full functionality from the gear as i have a OPO phone. Problem is i cant get the gear to connect to gear manager. Gear manager is not available in the galaxy app store on tablet so i downloaded latest version from this site and installed but just says searching and wont find thd gear.... ive tried different versions and made sure bluetooth on and vusible on both devices etc etc. No joy. Is the tab not supported which seems silly and is there a fix? ? Im in australia too by the way...
Only Samsung phones are support. Sorry, no tab support.

Gear S and custom stock ROM

Dear wonderful people of XDA and experts of gear S devs, I have a problem connecting my note 4 to my gear S and it is mainly due to me using a custom stock rom(nameless ROM). It is very much debloated of most Samsung stuff.
Can anyone please enlighten me what is required for a Samsung phone to be paired with gear S? I want to find out what is lacking so that I may install it. I have also consulted the Rom dev for advice as well.
I think only gear manager and a Sammy rom
Gear Manager Assistant have you tried that? it's on Black Market if you don't wanna pay for it AND test it out first to see if it works correctly and then buy it...
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gear_installer It's the second one down but here's some others in the related tab bar. Then there's Gear Manager for All https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gearconnector it's only a $1.90, I can say for certain Gear Manager Assistant downloads and grabs all the needed files for ya.
Oh and here's official Gear Manager maybe it'll install all the needed files: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.samsung.android.app.watchmanager

Pairing with Samsung Gear 3 & App

Hi guys,
New guy here so hope i'm not doing anything wrong such as double posts etc.
Did anyone manage to use Samsung Gear S3 correctly with Xiaomi Redmi Note 3. Every time I try to pair device using Samsung Gear app, app closes down. So really starting to think it is not compatible or something. So getting to know some Xiaomi user managed to pair will be assuring.
Thanks

Ensure that you have plugins installed:
- samsung accessory service,
- gear s plugin.
Ensure that you use not customized miui firmware. Works on global stable 8.1 and dev 7.4.6

[Q] Can I flash a Samsung ROM to a non Samsung phone?

I have a spare Moto X Style which is not my daily driver. I also have a Samsung Gear VR but alas it is only compatible with recent Samsung phones. Can I flash a Samsung ROM (eg Note 5, S6 or S7) to my Moto X Style so it will be recognised my Gear VR and I can run the Gear VR apps? I don't want to have to buy a Samsung compatible phone.
I have tried installing the Occulus and Gear VR system files to some degree of success but I still cannot get any apps to install as I can't get Gear VR services to run as am missing the Samsung CSC feature files. So I think it would be easier to just clone the whole Samsung ROM to my Moto. Is this doable?
Any advice please?

Simple answer is no. Long answer is each rom is built for that device. Drivers, libs, partitions, os, etc are all device dependent.
