Hi
I am also having same problem, with my new Galaxy A3 2016 phone. when i go to to galaxy app, i can't find Samsung gear app in galaxy app, where as at the same time i can find it on my galaxy note 3.
I downloaded Samsung gear from play store. But when i try to pair with Gear S, it says either phone is not compatible or the Samsung gear apps need to update.
Can any body help??

I called to samsung and they told me galaxy A3 DUOS can not pair with Gear s becouse it has 1 GB ram only. Gear S needs at least 1.5GB ram...so you can not pair booth devices

I don't think so...becouse if you visit samsung website you should download app for other devices... apps.samsung.com/gear ... try it

Hello,
I had the same problem with gear s2 and the galaxy a 3 2016. According to samsung website the cell phone is compatible and it has all the technical requirement but it is impossibly to connect both devices. Then I talked with samsung customer care and they told me that A3 2016 was not compatible with gear S 2 because it was not designed for that purpose. So f..ck samsung but the previous version A 3 2015 is compatible no sense.

I have samsung Gear 2 neo, and Gear S , its not working on A3 310 , now i bought a new A2 2016 - A310F the same thing, not connect in gear manager . only as bluetooth audio ... ****.. both watches worked full on S5 mini, HTC one mini ( old version android 1 gb ram ) on S6 ACTIVE , on A5 , but on A3 not at all , i think its a bluetooth hardware incompatibility problem...
