Hi, switched over from a Note 3 and though I had been using both the stock LG keyboard and Google keyboard for a while, somehow am still more used to the Samsung keyboard in my Note 3. Was just wondering if it's possible to install the Samsung Note keyboard (which I saw the apk here) on the V10, and can it only be done on a rooted phone?
Samsung uses Swiftkey now for their keyboard. Just install the normal app from the play store.

Hello,
I am using a SMS 3 I9300 on CM9. I'm very happy with it.
But I have a question. Is there a way to install the samsung "app" that checks with the camera if you're looking at the camera before putting it to sleep.
If you also know how I can set back the auto dim screen with the light it would be perfect.
Thank you.
No because samsung apps relies on the samsung framework. If you want samsung apps you need a samsung rom

You can't use the exact app from Samsung, but there are multiple 3rd-party choices available at the Play Store.

Hi,
I recently migrated to Nexus devices. I have a Nexus 5 and a Nexus 7 2013 WiFi only. Recently, while I am working with my phone/tablet, the play store suddenly opens to a randon (usually Korean) app. I say Korean because the dev's website ends with'.kr' and the language looks like one of the East Asian languages (I am sorry but I cannot differentiate the very well).
I notice this happens when I am back to my home screen.
I suspected Ads and I have downloaded Ad Away and made sure I am running the most recent updates. I even installed Ad Network Detector by Lookout and even uninstalled some apps I suspected. But it still pops up.
This issue happens on both my Nexus devices. Now there is an overlap of apps but they are not exactly the same.
Please note that I am running rooted stock 4.4 and stock kernel on the Nexus 7 2013 WiFi only (Dalvik runtime) and I am running rooted stock 4.4 with custom kernel on my Nexus 5 (ART runtime). I have not updated play store manually. Everything is as is from Google. And the play store version is 4.4.22.
One last thing, yesterday, I noticed the same type of "ads" on my wife's galaxy s2 running Jelly Bam v10. There is very little overlap in terms of apps.
This is a very annoying form of ads. Anyone experienced this?
I appreciate your help.
Hi,
After the last update for Gear Manager (october 3, 2015 for me) my Gear S do not connect on my S4. Just previous day all is right. All broken after update. Same for my Gear 2 and my Gear 1. Trying to reset the Gear 2 but same issue.
Trying restoring previous backup and when launched the manager download automatically an update and after Samsung Manager app delete all my phone app with a Gear part. So delete :
- Wrist List (shopping list for phone and a part on Gear)
- Todo Gear
- Any list
- My Notes in Gear
- Gear notes
- GearTask
Counter for Gear
Samsung uninstalled all this app from my phone. So no watch and lost also android phone app, totally incredible, thank you Samsung.
Any one with issue after update ?
Same with me. My note 4 got ota 5.1.1 and update latest gear manager. Now it wont connect to my gear s.
been a week not works, remains only 51 weeks to wait
With Nexus 5, I uncheck auto update from Play Store, uninstall app from Titanium Backup then install old version and it works.
With Note 3 no problem (but Note 3 is simlock :/)
Gear Manager is not a PlayStore app
but even after a restore of an old app it not works again.
On "Galaxy Apps" I have the "Auto Update" unchecked but even with this when youn launc Gear Manager it start an update automatically.
You have a Samsung mobile, on other devices you can see it on PlayStore.
No problem with new Gear Manager on Samsung phone/tab?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Gear S and also Gear 1&2 are only compatible with some (not all) Samsung device
Sadly I have the same issue after a forced update of gear manager app. Note 4 doesn't connect anymore to my gear S... I tried to un install the app from phone but it's not working. I made a wipe cache partition via recovery it's not working too...
Anybody is having the same issue than us ?
Help would be appreciated
Nothing new. I tried to uninstall all samsung modules and reinstall all from Galaxy Apps Store, factory reset my Gear 2, launch manager, it found and pair the Gear 2 but when it start the manager connection it was unable to connect the Gear, it stuck on "Connect...." screen......
Incredible that Samsung phone can not connect to Samsung watch
We must wait maybe one year before Samsung correct this issue, but probably not have a Samsung phone or watch in 1 year
Has anyone found a fix for this yet? I'm currently experiencing this issue as well.
Simplest best answer, sell all your samsung stuff (phone too) and get a LG (phone) and Urbane 2.
Problem solved no more Shady Shenanigans from Samsung breaking their sh!t just in time for the release of the S2 and trying to force users into a unwanted upgrade.
Forget this having to wait 51 weeks for them to fix a problem they caused and created, as big of a company as they are they should fix it immediately, but they DGAF about it or the customers.
More power to LG!

Samsung's now used planned obsolescence card.
I can't believe I used to think so highly of this lowly company and recommend them to everyone who asked.

I have a Gear S SM-R750A and when I try to install apps from the Gear Manager App Store they stick on Installing. I can use the Galaxy App Store to download normal apps to my Note 4 without issues just not to the Gear S. I am currently running Software Version R750AUCU1AOB1 and running 5.1.1 on the Note 4. Please let me know if anyone has found a fix to this issue. I have tried resetting my Gear S and reinstalling the Gear Manager as well.
I'm running stock rom on note 4 and I have this happen from time to time as well. Haven't found a fix other than canceling the installation and waiting a while to try again.

I have the same issue with my stock Note 3 and Gear s. Sammy has been no help. I have reset my phone and watch but that didn't help. I stay stuck on installing. Canceling doesn't help. Frustrated as hell. I won't buy another Gear x until they fix this. Don't get me started talking about Tizen. Not a fan.
Hi this happened to me. I did a restart of the phone and gear s and that fixed the problem.
I've tried restarting and reinstalling my watch to my phone several times. No luck. I am running stock everything with the most current firmware updates. No luck. Not rooted. My watch worked before I reset my phone using Kies and that's when everything stopped working. I can't even run opera mini. My watch gets stuck on installing. The phone says it downloads then goes to installing. ..forever. When Igo to my app manager, the apps I installed are not there. Btw, I have a note 3 along with my gear s.
Fixed
I finally fixed this problem. I did a total reset of my phone TMO Note 3 and my Gear S. I backed up my files on my computer, not using Kies. Reboot and reinstall all my apps, check for problems after every 3 apps. Works. I'd like to send a shot out to Samsung for their assistance. However, anything I shouted would need to be edited for expletives. Uncle Sammy was no help. Tizen still sucks. The app store is crap.... unless you want a watch face.
OK, this only took me all night to solve, and since I couldn't find anything in all of the Samsung and other Android help forums, I thought I'd put this here, just in case it might help someone else.
Just got a refurb Samsung Gear S, which I like quite a lot. Have a Samsung Galaxy 3 phone, so I figured I was set. I downloaded Samsung Gear Manager App from the Play Store. It recognized my Gear S, set up the preinstalled apps, and I thought all was good. Tried to download the tizen endomoto running app through the Gear S, and it says I have to do it through the Samsung Gear Manager.
Fine, go open it up, and touch the "download galaxy apps" button, and it flashes, and does nothing. I can update the smart watch software, communicate to the phone, etc - but the "download" button just flashes at me. Tried everything - reset the Gear S, re-paired, nada. Set the Galaxy 3 back to factory settings, reinstalled Samsung Gear Manager, same problem.
Turns out you have to install the Samsung Galaxy App store. You'd think this would happen automatically on a Samsung phone, but no. And of course, if you go to the Google Play Store, there is no Samsung Galaxy App store to install (except in Spanish, go figure). Since I don't read enough spanish to understand that this would work, I uninstalled it. But Samsung does put out apk's to install the Samsung Galaxy App store in English. You just have to find them. In this case, they are here:
Well, ****, XDA won't let me put in a URL because I'm a newbie. So do a Google search on "install samsung app store apk" and the top hit should be to apkmirror.com. You'll find it there.
Installed this (which also installs Samsung push and a few other things), and tada! you can donwload through the Samsung Gear Manager.
That was 12 hours of my life I won't get back - I hope this save you all some of yours.
BTW, really like the watch.
you rock
