hey there!
so i want to flash a costume rom to my Note 4, but i'm afraid that its gonna disrupt the my samsung gear s connection
is there anyone who did it, and it work for him? (i mean, without any third party apps, with the original samsung gear store and all that)
thanks!
Tal.
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.

Problem solved! I followed the procedure reported in another thread :"Tutorial: Install Gear Manager and connect to Non-Samsung Devices" and now all seems to work perfectly. Fortunately XDA exists. Thanks
Hello everyone,
I finally gave up with a problem that is driving me insane, and decided to seek professional help on this forum!
My wife's father just gave me, as a present, a Samsung Gear Fit.
I was very happy, at least until I discovered that I cannot download Gear Fit Manager on my device (which is a Samsung Galaxy Fame, Android version 4.1.2).
I read some threads within this forum, and found links to a number of APKs that are apparently designed to install the Gear Fit Manager to devices that would normally not support it.
I downloaded some of the APKs on my device and...none of them works!
I can't even open the APKs after the download, my device shows the error message `There is a problem parsing the package`.
So, I am in a situation where my device does not support the Gear Fit Manager, and I can't fix the problem with an APK.
10 karma point for who can help, really frustrated!
Thanks,
Alekos
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.
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
