Thanks for reminding me. Has been available to download since 18 April, but I forgot to update post
Update: v1.7.042803 (Gear 1) | v2.0.14042803 (Gear 2)
Finally
Just updated to the latest and S Health is now updated to allow you do define which pedometer data is shown.
And at last the basic function of the phone and watch syncing is resolved.

Pardon my ignorance, are you using S5, S4 or Note 3? I am using ATT Note 3 (N900). I updated gear manager to v2.0.14042803. Still having trouble syncing pedometer on Neo and S-Health on Note 3.
Gear manager indicated installing additional software updates; rebooted and open gear manager > fitness > check for updates > "This is latest version"
Open Note 3 S-Health App > settings > check for updates > "This is latest version"
Still unable to sync Neo pedometer with phone S-Health.

I am using an S4, I have my Samsung apps set to auto update, so it prompted.
Only other difference which may explain it, is I have installed the latest S5 S Health.

v1.8.022599 (Gear 1) | v2.2.15022599 (Gear 2)
From v1.7 onwards, GM has 2 version numbers in the same apk as it includes the files to connect both original Gear and Gear 2. v2 is also used if running Tizen on original Gear
Download
You can download the installer (and secondary apks) here:
https://www.mediafire.com/folder/e7h23e12rzesi/Gear_Manager
v2.2.15022599 includes all the apks that GearManger attempts to download. I'd suggest installing all of these before installing main GearManager apk. You'll notice there are 2 plugin apks. Gear Plugin is for newer devices (Gear 2/Neo), Gear1 Plugin for original Galaxy Gear
Notable changes
1.5.111304
Expanded notifications
Exchange Email blocked in US
1.5.120601
Exchange Email unblocked in US
v1.5.121601
Very buggy - suggest not installing
v1.6.111801
Leak. Support for ML1. Exchange email body blocked gm1.6 plus ml1
v1.6.131003
Leak. Support for NA3. Support for KitKat
v1.7.031004
Leak. From Galaxy S5 stock rom
Other devices
As of yet, it is not possible to get Gear working fully without a Samsung device running 4.3 TouchWiz rom
To install on other devices, make sure you put GearMangerStub.apk in system/app. Then you can install GearManager and the secondary apps (music and weather won't install without dedicated samsung apps also on your device). You will not get notifications and it is very limited, but it connects
Suspect the issue is related to tight integration with TouchWiz framework and Samsung apps

Installs fine on N5 (apart from music and weather - however you can get the Samsung apks for this and it works somethings). The key is gearmanagerstub in system/app
Then install gear manager
Then install other apks
Then connect either by nfc or manually
If you get to restore page, you should be able to choose reset

Updates will likely be blocked through the Samsung App store because your device is non standard, but there's no reason you can't go about updating it yourself.

i noticed today, my gear manager updated to a new version and downloaded and installed 3 new items, im guessing theyre overwrites to previous software, anyway
its updated again today, and again downloaded and installed another 3 items,
i never had a problem with my gear manager, so the question im asking is, has this fixed bluetooth disconnect for non samsung devices, and are the signed apps, working more consistently

Some of the data in that 159mb is only download as a package to install the software. And then deleted. So don't worry about the size. The problem gear manager has. Well that samsung has. Is they don't update the software so to speak. They release a new one. So to overwrite our already installed they need to rename the files while installing . And sometimes it conflicts cos of the filenames . It's best to just uninstall all. Then install fresh. Pain in the are. But clean installs always more smooth

Last week I got the Gear 2 Neo, and was using it with my Note 8, which wasn't fully supported. Spec wise it seemed like it should work, but I had to change the build.prop to make it work. I purchased a watchface that I really liked.
Today I got my Note 4, and when I went to go find the same watchface in the store, it's no longer there.
Is there a way to transfer a backup from one device to another device?

So I actually need to change my build.prop to the same model S5? Gear Manager doesn't work with the Note 8, so I had to change it to that to get it to download and setup. I did everything I wanted while the Note 8 was an S5, but changed it after. Almost everything worked then, except the app store.

New 5.0.1 update did it change something?
I can't speak for the Gear S, but I have a Gear 1 and it works well with my S5 running on Lollipop.
So Gear Manager is actually LP compatible.
And if it works on an old smartwatch like the Gear 1, I assume it would work (or otherwise very soon) for a completely new smartwatch too.

Gear Manager used to be a full package installer.
Since a few months, the initial package is way smaller.
When the installation starts, it downloads other apps and installs them.
Which packages exactly, I don't know.
So you need to have the full package of apps which are installed by Gear Manager.
I don't have those for you, I'm sorry.

It's actually quite simple :
1, First I removed all apps that was Gear related.
2. Secondly I removed my Gear BT connection, both on phone and on the Gear.
3. Put the phone in Airplane mode or disable internet connection completely (both wifi and mobile data).
4. Then I installed an earlier version op Gear Manager (2.1.14071502) which was one of the last "full" installes before Samsung decided to remove the additional apps in the installer. Also in this version the full preview still worked.
5. Once installed, turn on BT and connect to the Gear. NOT ENABLE INTERNET YET !
6. When it has found the phone and Gear Manager is working, set up the notifications the way you want it. It won't tell you to update to newer version as it doesn't have any internet connection yet. Also make sure you disable automatic update in Gear Manager
7. When everything is set up completely, you can turn on internet connection(s)
8. When opening Gear Manager, it will most likely ask to update (as it now sees that an update is available). It's up to you if you want to update.
The older version has worked on my S5 for some time, but suddenly it stopped transferring the notifications to my Gear.
That's why I updated to latest version.
I hope this works on a Nexus 5, but it did work on my S5.

That's why I updated to latest version.
I hope this works on a Nexus 5, but it did work on my S5.

It's actually quite simple :
1, First I removed all apps that was Gear related.
2. Secondly I removed my Gear BT connection, both on phone and on the Gear.
3. Put the phone in Airplane mode or disable internet connection completely (both wifi and mobile data).
4. Then I installed an earlier version op Gear Manager (2.1.14071502) which was one of the last "full" installes before Samsung decided to remove the additional apps in the installer. Also in this version the full preview still worked.
5. Once installed, turn on BT and connect to the Gear. NOT ENABLE INTERNET YET !
6. When it has found the phone and Gear Manager is working, set up the notifications the way you want it. It won't tell you to update to newer version as it doesn't have any internet connection yet. Also make sure you disable automatic update in Gear Manager
7. When everything is set up completely, you can turn on internet connection(s)
8. When opening Gear Manager, it will most likely ask to update (as it now sees that an update is available). It's up to you if you want to update.
The older version has worked on my S5 for some time, but suddenly it stopped transferring the notifications to my Gear.
That's why I updated to latest version.

It's not this simple.
You're running the latest S5 SAMSUNG 5.0, so you have lots of stuff in place that others don't. I tried your steps and it failed, it wouldn't even load Gear Manager for me.
For instance, I'm running a Note 4 (T-mobile US) on CM12... There's a big difference in Lollipop on your device and others'. I believe you have the only device that runs official Samsung Lollipop. I've tried loading Galaxy Apps, other touchwiz stuff, and installing Gear Manager many many different ways with no success.

This is pretty much as far as you can get without an official Samsung Lollipop
Ok
Here is the latest version of the GM 2.2.141128 and apk 's all of them, even Saproviders and samsung store pay apk. I used build.prop twicks for S5 and tizen gear1 on a 5.0 lollipop gpe rom.
Unfortunately although GM didn't crash, it got stuck on the hostmanager apk fc.(haven't tryied null rom that uses the older host providers).

I just wanna try your .zip but I have a question: should I install all apps or copy them to system folder?
