Just wondering if the Gear S has seen an update lately as in the past week or so? Thank you
I. Checked my att watch yesterday, no updates. Samsung forgot about the watch.
BOC1 came out awhile back, but I do know the Sprint Gear S hasn't received it yet. Of course, that may have been for the UK, not sure about the US. Currently, the Gear S doesn't work on devices running Android 6.0...............so Samsung may be holding off updating the Gear S until Android 6.0 starts being updated on their phones.

So i just came back from the US where i bought my tab 10.1 wifi. As we all know TW UX is coming soon. Question is, will my tab (KF3) be getting the update as well?

Of course it will. Just keep checking on XDA, someone will probably post it as soon as it starts rolling out
buy a ticket and get back to US and do the update
So for those of us who have done this (bought a Tab in the USA, but are now using it out of the USA), it's not likely that we'll see the OTA update anytime soon? If so, it sounds like it might be a good option to root and install it manually?..
I bought my Tab in US and Im using it in the Czech Republic (central Europe). When connecting to Kies I receive: "This device is not supported for update".
So Im not pretty sure that it will be possible to update before legal sale in the Czech Republic starts.
The Tab 10.1 doesn't update using Kies.
You go to Settings > About tablet and press Software update and then Update and it'll update using your WiFi connection.
Where you are around the world shouldn't matter since it'll end up connecting to whatever update server they're using in the US for WiFi Tab 10.1's.
The rollout for TouchWiz UX should occur August 3rd (in the US) but even if you're outside of the US like I am, you should still get it.

How do you even connect to KIES? Mine is not recognized. I just did the KIES update today... same old, same old. It used to be recognized by my notebook in the US telling me the same thing you saw, but here none of my computers seem to recognize it. Weird!
Back in late October, a leaked document had given us a look at the update schedule for the Android 4.3 updates for various Samsung devices by major US carriers, including the Galaxy S4. Now, a new document obtained by Android Police has revealed that the Galaxy S4 on carrier US Cellular will begin receiving the update from November 8th, starting from 9 AM in the morning.
The update – build R970TYURMJA – will add support to the Galaxy S4 for the Galaxy Gear, improve performance and display quality, add new camera and TouchWiz features, KNOX functionality, and more. Also accompanying the update will be a newer Kies version, so for those using their computers to upgrade, an update to Kies might be required as well.

This update has nothing to do with the SGH-I337. I know there isn't a forum for the US Cellular variant, but you should title the post of this thread accordingly. If you have a Galaxy S4 on US Cellular, then you model number is SCH-R970. The i337 is an AT&T only variant.
It probably makes more sense for this thread to exist in the Galaxy S4 international forums.
I dont understand what this has to do with the ATT galaxy s4 variant.
Yeah, move it to us cellular please, I got all confused

I put this update off until yesterday. I wish i had continued to put it off as this update is a hunk of garbage. My phone has rebooted over 20x and constantly crashes when playing games, and any other hardware intensive application.
No I am not exaggerating.
I booted into recovery, wiped 3x to hard reset it and still have these issues. I am now looking at a custom ROM from this site to install.
Do not install this update if you can avoid it.
Hi!
Bought à galaxy gear for à very good price, but i got the galaxy mega 6.3. So i can't use it yet, i ned android 4.3. I have searched around allt and i found that it was goding to be come out last month januari.... But it hasen't Do someone know when android 4.3 comes or how i can use my gear?
(Sorry for my bad english, hope you get the meaning!)
Fact is, no one knows. Except Samsung. And they won't tell.
I tried to track own this answer for the last 2 weeks. Several calls to samsung, a visit to the samsung experience guys at BestBuy, several calls to ATT, an att store visit. I invested at least 6-8 hours of my time between calls, online chats and personal store visits. Got the run around by everybody. No one is on the same page, and some just come right out and say it's not available.
I think we will get kitkat 4.4 first, and 4.3 will be moot.

Samsung skip 4.3...we will get 4.4 on march...but only for mega 6.3 9200&9205 and all us variant
The latest update for the Mega 6.3 does have Galaxy Gear support without needing 4.3.

Hi guys
Has anyone heard if there will be a newer version of the Gear S this year?
I think the sales of the watches were lower than expected according to Samsung on some "sites" I was browsinig, so
I was curious if they will releasing a newer version.
Thanks!!
I have only heard about an upcoming round watch that was named the Gear A. I am also surprised at no other info, as I bought Gear 1, 2 and S all in a fairly quick time period.
Hi Guys,
I just got the Samsung Gear S on Verizon model SM-R750V and I didn't know if the watch is running the latest software since I didn't activate it a store employee did so I don't know what that entailed. Could someone be so kind as to letting me know? Here is the software that is on the watch AR750VVRU1AOA4 it looks as if it was manufactured in April 2015.

Looks like Feb was the last update to the gear so it looks like I am running the latest software.
Looks like Verizon users got an update in early Feb that ends in 1AOA4.
Verizon: 1AOA4
T-Mobile: 1AOA7
Sprint: 1AOA7
AT&T: 1AOB1
Sadly, the rest of the world is already on BOC1 so AT&T's behind and the other U.S. carrier's are way behind. The Korean Gear's are already up to BOG1 so maybe some fresh updates are coming. As always, we in the U.S. who are dependent on our carriers will be the last to receive them.
