Note 2 working with Galaxy Gear

Hi Guys
Today I update my note 2 with android 4.3,went to the samsung store and connected my note 2 with a galaxy gear,did some test and everything worked so I just bought one.
So far everything seems like working,but I can't really see many application in the store,maybe because I'm in china and they have less application?can I manually install some application or what should I do to change store?
Thanks

Hi, just some questions:
- I understand you have a non-official 4.3 in the note 2, could you confirm?
- If do you have a bluetooth headset, may I ask you to test if you do a call, or with the phone or with the galaxy gear, if the sounds goes to he headset?
I acquired a gear and check with 4.2.2. and 4.1.2 on diferent devices (installing the gear app) but the issue was with the headset. I need to have it running...

Yes it's a non official 4.3
So far when i made a call with the gear or note it only goes on the gear.I will try again and will let you know.

Plasee can check if receive the call with the note instead of the gear, goes it into the note or still going to the gear. In this last case there is a menú in The gear that can switch to the note or to the bluetooth, does it work? This menu appears on the gear during the call and is activated on the screen, upper right corner.
do you have last version of gear software in the note?
Thanks for your time.

So if I receive a call i can answer with the gear or with the phone,then from the phone I can push the Headset button and hear the call on the phone,or push it back and hear it on the gear.
Yes I have the latest version I believe.

You are my king....
A) If you receive a call and push your bluetooth earpiece, the call goes directly into this headset?
B) Do you have disconnections using the headset bluetooth earpiece?
C) May i ask you for a print screen of your bluetooth devices connected just to see what is blue color or connected at the same time?
D) What 4.3 are you running?
E) is running in your case the weather widget?
You have the secret to have running the gear. It is related to the 4.3 version but not needed any special sw from Samsung (except obviously the gear sw). If you confirm my question I think I will acquire again a gear (i returned due no way to have it running with my phones)
Sorry for this long list of requirements.

Download the gear manager app. You cant use the nfc tag because you dont have a note 3. Find the apk. Install it. Voila!!

Did you have the little charging cradle against the back of the Note 3? If not, do so, let it make the sound, make sure numbers match on Gear andNote. Next, hit ok on both and they should pair.
Plan B if they don't pair. Go to the Note Bluetooth settings and scan for the Gear manually. It should find it, hit ok on Gear and Note if numbers match on both and u r ready to go.
Let's us know if it does not work.
Also, in the Gear watch itself, go to settings, Bluetooth and make sure it is checked.

I am also having the same problem. Mine would pair if initially if using NFC but after ticking "agree" to all the terms and conditions the bluetooth will turn off (at least that's what it says on the gear). I can then pair up using bluetooth manually and get into the sychronisation graphic which does not ever go away. I don't get to see the watch face at all. It seems to be forever syncing with my note3. I think I might have to get a replacement. Resetting and repairing wouldn't work either....

Simple solution. Don't look into it to far. Just make sure you download and fully run gear manager on your phone before you connect. Simple as that. Same thing happened to me when I set it up.... got a little toy happy and neglected to run the proper steps

Disable auto-answer on Gear

Whenever I answer the phone ON my phone, it redirects the audio to the Gear. Is there an option to stop that?
I turned off Bluetooth Voice/Audio in the Bluetooth settings but then it completely disables the Gear. Any ideas?
I'm using the gear on a CM 4.4 S3, so no TW. That might be the issue right?

Ya that's exactly the issue. Your phone sees the watch as a headset so it will always send it to the watch.

As far as I know you need a Samsung device that supports it or If you do have the right device you need a two rom. I don't think there's any other way. Your watch is running tizen, not even Android so there isn't much you can do.

It works fine for me with a BT headset and a Gear 2. Just a guess, but make sure you do not have "Incoming calls" checked in Gear Manager>Settings.

I'm on the Nexus 5 for outgoing calls immediately translates into Gear 2 Neo. Nexus 5 perceives it as a bluetooth headset. Somebody decided this issue?

[Q] Galaxy Gear + Galaxy S6 Edge?

Hi guys,
Recently i went back to Sammy after a good time with LG. I have used my GG through my S4,G3 and now i want to pair it up nicely with my Galaxy S6 Edge. Hmm.. has anyone tried this? does it work? How can i pair it to have notifications and all, i have years away from the GG community !
I would greatly appreciate your wise suggestions and understanding to make my loved GG work with my S6. I'm running on Null's.

I have no solution, but I also have a problem with my S6 and Galaxy gear(SM-V700). In Gear manager they find eachother but it Always ends in Connection failed and they refuse to pair in gear manager. Bluetooth-pairing is no problem strangely enough.
I did manage to pair my galaxy gear successfully to my S6 when the gear was running Android, but this problem started when I upgraded it to Tizen.
-------------------------------------------------
Update: Solved it! And for me, it was very easy. I forgot I havent tried to clear the app cache. I Went though all gear apps and removed both data and cache for them. Now it works like magic. I hope this helps op aswell.

Hi guys i came back to say i have a fully working Galaxy Gear with the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge.
My S6 Edge updated it's software, and upon that the pairing with the Gear app on the S6 and the Galaxy Gear was seamless. Notifications and everything are fully working, i'm in Null's rom.
The only thing is that i want to install cool watch faces and new launchers to my Galaxy Gear. I've been away from the forums so i actually dont know... after all these years... what new android wear like features, and cool things i can install to a Null Rom, Galaxy Gear.

Watchstyler works perfectly!!

Original Galaxy gear bluetooth and app problems.

Hi I just got my old galaxy gear S1 sm-v700 out of the drawer after 18 months, reset it and then paired with my galaxy s6 edge. All looking good until I looked for apps....
Where have they all gone?! Clicking on galaxy apps store via the galaxy gear app brings up just a dozen or so apps, there used to be hundreds!
So I then thought I'd try pairing the watch with my bluetooth headset, only to find thats not happening either! Obviously I have bluetooth turned on for both watch and headset, but the visibility on watch is greyed out and wont let me turn it on, meaning my headset cant find it!
What happened, this used to be a fab watch, as it stands right now its just OK i guess.
