Hello all,
I've been using a non-rooted Galaxy note 3 and Gear combo now for a while, but recently decided to take the plunge and flashed Tizen onto my Gear. However, after the upgrade, I can no longer access any of the gear apps in the samsung app store. The initial app store homescreen displays a few apps, such as the editor's picks, etc. but once I select any of the displayed apps, it gives me a "no data" message. It also displays the same "no data" screen if i hit the "Top" or "Category" tabs at the top of the screen I've tried reflashing different versions of Tizen, and presenty have a rooted version of NE9 running.
Has anyone else come across this problem? or better yet, has anyone actually been able to remedy it?
I am getting the exact same problem. Note 3 and Gear 1, just upgraded to Tizen last night and now Gear Manager apps show no data. Hope someone can provide a fix.

Hello!
I was playing with rooted image and decided I do not really need that. so i reset my Gear, reflashed with stock and wanted to set it up to my liking.
Turned out that the Featured Apps list now is not including some of the apps - the ones I had installed on the rooted image. Of course this are the ones I really want......
I was able to install ebay, runtastic and spedometer from apk's I found in another thread. But Evernote and Glympse will not install, they just say "Not installed" at the end of install.
Also - when I go to Samsung Apps in Gear manager the apps I want are impossible to download as they just say "View in Gear Manager".
Also - the apps mentioned show in Notifications section of Gear Manager but not on the watch.
Any idea hot to reset Gear Manager to get rid of the problem?
BTW: I tried removing GM and reinstalling - of course the problem is still there.
Thx.

While on idle on my AT&T Note 3, I eventually and regularly get the following message:
"Samsung WachOn isn't responding. Do you want to close it?'
Then I select either 'Wait', 'Report', or 'Ok'
Is anyone else running into this? I have cleared its cache, deleted it's data, re-set-it-up, but this still occurs. Outside of disabling the App, does anyone have any suggestions?
I do like this remote app given its show views and suggestions. It integrates well into my Cablevision box, Panasonic TV, and linked Denon receiver.

The last update that I received for WatchOn completely broke the app for me. It is 100% useless as it sits on my device, not that my device isn't bricked anyway. Could always do what I did and get a different 3rd party remote app.
While it is running it is very good. Basically in the background it cannot be left active and needs to be turned off or archived. Just surprised others in this forum aren't also complaining.
as title, I have just installed wondershare on my pc and sideloaded mx player, angry birds and a couple of other apk files. my watch and phone (s4) are both stock unrooted and running the latest gear manager and watch software.
now after about 5 minutes I get a notification on the gear that it has disconnected from the phone and the sideloaded apks have gone. they still show up on wondershare but have to be uninstalled and reinstalled to show on the gear.
The installed apps work fine after installing them, and I didnt I have this issue when I 1st played with it at Christmas on my wondershare trial , but the trail ran out and I updated things.
So is this a problem with the gear manager software? or the gear itself? or me?
Use an older version of gear manager

hi ,
first ,it is not a Wondershare "problem "but i think its just "Sammy" that not to happy to let us sideload on Gear ??
As this issue with apps, worked 100% on previous rom and Gear Manager software untill a" few " versions" back .
yes ,i have same problem ( using rom NA6 and Gear Manager v1.6.132701 )
but it does not worry me ,as i know apps are working ..etc
i use a workaround , Thus having benefits of latest software /ROM and gear manager (unless its really buggy )
if you want to ,all you have to do is reboot Gear and if you look in 'apps 'section on your Gear ,
all your sideloaded apps should show ( before they evenually disappear from "apps " section.)
i launch each app once and close it straight away .( the reason is that it is in memory of recent use app )
if i need to launch a sideloaded app i tap screen with 2 fingers on screen , and hold to bring up all recent used apps and select relevant app ?
(No need to reinstall etc .)
also yes,
you should get it right, with previous version of Gear manager
but you would have to go back 2 ..3 versions mabe to vers .1.5......?
(but you are going to lose other" improved benefits eg. like better bluetooth stability between phone and Gear ? etc.
just an alternative suggestion if you interested
Previous posters solution works however.....I have experienced the same issue tonight after the most recent upgrade to Gear software. Rebooting worked also. My fault as I wanted to restore to factory settings to remove QuickTwit from Notifications (a bug). The upgrade did offer a restore which I didn't take D'Oh!! I then did a restore via Wondershare.
I found that the approved Samsung apps like eBay for Gear and RadiOn although restored to the Gear via Wondershare had to be installed to Gear Manager by installing the apps from scratch.
Now all the apps don't disappear after 5 mins. Co-Incidence?
However, they do not appear on the list of downloaded apps, as they did with the previous version of Gear Manager.
Do also make sure the 3rd party app permissions box is ticked on the Gear Manager too.

thanks for the reply, however your method does not work for me, after a reboot of the watch the sideloaded apps are not there??
looks like I am going to have to root the watch.

Going back from Gear Manager v1.6 to v1.5 fixed issue for me. There's a nice collection of Gear Managers in this page:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2593066
I hope it was just a bug in Gear Manager v1.6, and Samsung is not really trying to prevent sideloading.
I always used to be able to read any short gmail message in my gear 1. Now it just says Gmail but nothing else...no body nor even who it is from. I still get complete messages from samsung note 3 stock email app. Outlook app also only notifies how many messages I have. Does anybody know why I don't get complete gmail messages in gear 1 any more? I am on latest version of gear manager.

In the latest versions of Gear Manager, Samsung disabled the option to view full notifications for several apps (the apps you have installed onto your phone, not the ones already implemented onto the Gear itself).
Here's how you can revert back to older version and get back all full notifications : http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-gear/help/broken-notifications-gear-manager-heres-t2915460
Only "problem" is that it keeps nagging, after you are back to old version, to update Gear Manager.
Just ignore those nagging messages untill a newer version is out which enables full notifications again.
It wouldn't work. Perhaps because I'm not rooted? I uninstalled everything. I believe it was 5 different apps. I shut off watch. Shut off bt and data. Installation went fine. It showed my watch as paired but would not allow me to change any settings until it scanned for device....so I let it scan but watch off so it found nothing but finally shut itself off. Next I turned on watch and scanned several times (scanning from gm automatically turns on bt). It could never connect to watch. Watch on, bt on but it just could.not find watch even though it was already listed as paired. I tried resetting watch and restarting phone but nothing helped. Finally I turned on data and I could not cancel the forced update.
Are you on Tizen or Null ?
Watch doesn't has to be rooted, I performed same procedure both on my rooted S5 as well as on my non-rooted S4.
Both have older version now with full notifications.
I'm on Null and not Tizen
Tizen
100% stock qnd updated note 3
Maybe you should "downgrade" (although it's actually upgrading) to Null.....it's better anyway
Nah, maybe the next gm update will fix. Thanks anyway. Wish this forum were more active. Folks may know other solutions but nobody reads it anymore
Hi,
I decided to clean up My Apps on the Play Store by going into the Play Store App, selecting My Apps and then hitting the "X" to drop those I no longer require.
That all worked fine but on my Galaxt Tab 8.9 there is one application called "eBook Application" from "Samsung Electronics Inc" which has me puzzled.
I have no recollection of ever installing this app and now it seems there is no way to get rid of it.
It appears only on the Play Store list, I can not find it anywhere on the device.
The attached screen shots should explain the problem.
When I select from the list I get the second screen saying that my device is not compatible with this version.
It's not a train smash, but it is annoying.
ANy advice or info will be gratefully welcomed.

Hmmm have you tried checking your Applications list?
Settings > Applications > All > look for "eBook Application" or possibly "Samsung eBooks" etc. > tap it and then select Disable (that is, if it'll let you uninstall it, Samsung can be crappy like that )
Hello,
I think this app is part of the Samsung apps installed by default on your tab.
Samsung has a "Samsung app Store", and a manager app on the tab for this store.
The eBook app you're talking about is certainly part of that samsung store. I don't know if you can remove it, maybe you can only uninstall updates that have been automatically installed.
Try by using the Samsung app Store, if there is one on you tab.
Hope that helps
If you're on stock rom, you probably can't install it, as it is part of the factory preloaded apps. Still, you can disable them in Settings -> Apps or uninstall updates. Hope this helps.
