I just recently purchased a Galaxy Gear online and apparently it isn't a US model. I don't think it's a fake, it's just from another country. It runs Android with no problems, but I would like to upgrade to Tizen. When I connect to Kies 3 however, it doesn't show that there is an updated firmware available. I'm not afraid to flash Tizen manually, but so I need to flash the ROM specific to the country this device was made for?

Hi,,
I have purchased galaxy tab 7.0 ,, p1000 yesterday !
I know its too late but its OK , its not for me any way
but I tried to update the tab to android 2.3 , but it seems something is wrong
I have downloaded the latest kies from Samsung website , then I have connected my P1000 , and every thing is going fine , but the kies says this is the latest firmware!!
what does that mean?
I know how to root the device and how to get the update but I don't want to!
why I can't just update it officially from kies?? I live in Saudi Arabia , but is it really a problem?? as far as I know its available for everyone now
any suggestions?

keis looks at your model number. so it's saying you have the latest software released for your model. most of what you see on here is people rooting and putting whatever they want on thier tablets. rooting is when you hack your computer to get low-level system access. which voids your warrenty. and android is linux so you should be familiar with how a linux os works and your tablets hardware.
ok thanks for replying ,,
I know all these stuff , and i am familiar with Linux also
but isn't this update officially released?
why does it say this is the latest firmware if it looked at my model number?!
does that mean some models don't get the update?
It's wierd. is it a import from somewhere else?
Keis would only reject models from certain places.
or your model is not on the roll out yet too.
samsung is a wierd company. good but wierd.
go into your configs and look at about your device,
and see what model and revision it is.

Gingerbread is definitely not available everywhere just yet. Unavailable here on my Aussie Tab for example.
It's possible that you're Tab is coded to a carrier/region and would therefore be ineligible. For example, I have a GT-P1000T (nothing on the outside will tell you this. Try checking the box) which means I can't get the upgrade. Same goes for other models such as the 1000R/B/K type models. This could be an issue.
Also, if you're Tab is locked to a network, your carrier might have to sign off on the upgrade first.

Yeah, got the ****s wirth waiting for Telstra to release an update, went with ODIN instead, never looked back...
Apparently as I was browsing the telstra site yesterday, there is an upgrade available for the Telstra GT-P1000T now available for download through Kies.... If you are game...
I just brought a gear that come with software version v700xxuamii and I wonder if I can root this version to use the gear with an iphone 5s.... I'm new on android and galaxy if any one can help me....
Thanks in andvace....
Rooting won't make any difference when it come to compatibility
You can always downgrade firmware. Check the rooting and tutorial threads as they contain pretty much all the answers
i just installed that version on my Gear (after hosing it) then proceeded to flash TWRP then null 23 - no issues what so ever

It's for Romania (ROM) but I think all the regional ROM's are the same. Romania was one of the first regions pushed when the Tizen update was first launced. I installed it over XAC (Canada) and my Gear just updated; I didn't lose anything and didn't have to reset/recover. I've gone through it and have found anything different on it or in relation to Gear Manager. But I wasn't having any issues to begin with. It's still on Tizen 2.2.1.1 which is interesting since the Gear 2's are starting to move to 2.2.1.2. Anyone else find anything different between NE9<>NF1?
Here's the link from Samsung-updates...
http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SM-V700
Been playing around with this new build and the only thing I can see different is that kies has a problem with it, Tried the usual re-flash reset etc and still same error message?
Odin dosen't seem to be pushing the ROM's region file (ROM/BTU) for some reason?
Update: flashed back to BTU NE9 and kies now showing OK...

It's really odd that some people have issues and others don't when we're all on the same h/w and doing the same things (EG: Odin, Kies). My "official" CSC is XAR (US) and I was using BTU on Android. When I moved to Tizen I used BTU initially and then changed over to Canada (XAC). When Romania NF1 came out I just Odin'd over XAC. I had no problems with the update and have no problems with Kies.
I see your screen dump said the same as mine while testing it, i.e. "your devices current firmware version is not supported to update firmware via kies"
I was kinda hoping multi-watch may have shown with this new build, but watch styler is also good but eats my battery alive!!
Thanks again for the heads up on this release.

That's what it says when the CSC and ROM region are mismatched on any Samsung device. I'm running Romania on a U.S. Gear.
Do you know how to change the CSC region settings on the gear, maybe an extra file to flash with ROM?
@gadjet try changing your build.prop on your PHONE to get Multi-watch
/system/build.prop

My galaxy note 3 is not rooted unfortunately, never risked it with the new protection and possibility of tripping my knox flag.
I guess as watch styler has now appeared on sammy apps won't be long before multi-watch makes an apperance.
Thanks anyway.

Ok so am on my note 3. Changed the build.prop with the phones text editor. Still no multiwatch. No new apps at all actually.....
Also can we root this new firmware? The old root image changes it back to ne9 (obviously).

Has anyone as of yet seen a worthwhile reason to change to the new firmware? What are the benefits?
My wife is half Romanian but I think I'll stay with my Canadian Tizen firmware as that is not a good enough reason to switch....

hi all, downloaded and flashed(PHN)[Holland]
Just received the update OTA on my phone (Note 2) for my Canadian Tizen Gear....The changelog said something about improvements to the interface....I see no material difference except that a Golf Nav app for $30 now shows up in my Samsung apps...
LOL.... I did notice one massive difference today...My Gear drained from 100% to 0 in under eight hours today...I guess you have to wipe in recovery after the update just like when we used ODIN to flash TIZEN...
I'll do that after it charges back up and hope that tomorrow is better..

I didn't wipe and after 8hrs I was at 73%. Come to think of it, I've never wiped coming from android.
Is there not a way to update the Gear One through (via) Samsung? I have checked their web site and I do not see a new update for my version Gear: V700XXUBNA6.
All the third party links I have found so far show it will take hours to download the file. How can it be updated directly from Samsung?
Are you looking to stay on Android or upgrade to Tizen?
Look through this site: http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SM-V700
It lists all the firmware versions, including Android as well as Tizen firmwares.
I do not recommend using Samsung Kies, as I find it too problematic. I recommend using ODIN 3.09.

I want to upgrade to the new Tizen. When I go to Samsung's web site and select wearables and then select the Gear I can find the SM-V700 series, like mine, but it does not list V700XXUBNA6, which is what mine is.
The new Tizen firmware is rootable...correct? And will it work with my Note 3 which is rooted running Hyperdrive RSL7 (4.3)?
I have about 5 minutes left on my download of the Tizen firmware from a third party site...hopefully it will make it
I have never used Samsung's websites to update my Samsung devices, and I have 4 currently, and about 8 in total (have sold or returned the other 4). The wonderful devs and users on this forum are very helpful, they have way more knowledge than Samsung's website, and they are more than help to lend a helping hand.
Don't worry about your current android version, the new Tizen can be upgraded from any Android version. Iike I said before, I'd recommend using ODIN instead of Kies. Check other threads in this forum, there are ones that discuss how to upgrade to Tizen with ODIN. The thing I do suggest is to make sure you read and understand the instructions before trying.

Hello,
I'm Korean who is living in Canada and I have a GW3 korean version (R850) which is not available Samsung pay but it has NFC. And Samsung health monitor doesn't work in Canada (my phone is S20+ 5G I bought in Canada). So I want to make my watch enable to use Samsung pay, BP and ECG.
I saw on youtube and it said find a combination firmware for my GW3 and install it.
Most of post is about R840 model not R850 so it is hard to find right combination firmware for me.
Can you let me know where I can fine it for R850?
Thanks for reading.

Hello,
Thanks for your answer.
I installed SHM successfully on my phone from your google drive
But my watch's model is SM-R850.
Can I use R845's combination firmware file instead?
If not, could you let me know where can I get R850's combination firmware?
Best Regards

Search the XDA, if you can't find, start a thread requesting the combination files and maybe someone can help you...
