Help... just bought a galaxy gear
I am using rooted z1 with stock rom
keep trying these two days
all of the solutions pairing on non samsung devices was tried
but never success
everytime trying to pair
it displays "connect fail" or "xxx force closed"
if these don't happend
it will display paired, but disconnected
choosing connect will cause gear manager or gear1 plugin freeze or FC
what should i do?
I think there is no way to sync GG with sony z1 coz samsung allready mention that GG will fully sync with samsung phone only.. peace

Updated my gear 1 to tizen and also my note 8 Ltd to 4.2.2 using the official Germany dom. ...
Watch pairs with phone both showing code but then......nothing.......tries to connect to watch and fails.....
am I missing something
please help cos right now I hate Samsung so much for making this gear not work
I had that happen while trying to flash a custom recovery and failing which resulting in the watch hard resetting itself. My phone would recognize and pair with the watch but it would go in an endless connecting spree. The solution is to go into your Gear manager and gear plugin app info on the phone or tablet and just clear the data. Or you could just uninstall/reinstall the app and it should do the trick.

Hi Guys any of you encountered getting stuck on Samsung Gear manager when tryin to connect to Samsung gear 1? Im on DN3 V5 Rom with Agni Kernel and I have Samsung gear 1 running Tizen. I tried clearing Rom/Cache/Dalvic, reinstall gear manager app a couple of times including from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2677686. I reset my gear which makes it unusable it can pair through bluetooth.
Before reinstalling gear manager did u try force closing it and reconnecting? That usually fixed it for Me. Worth a try it. Sometimes it takes a couple tries to connect to my phone
Thanks for your suggestion. Ive tried that already but it just stays connecting.My bluetooth detected and paired my Gear with no problem.

Make sure your build.prop DOES NOT claim your device is a Samsung. (and reboot for reverted build.prop to take an action) That fixed an issue for me

I have the same issue with a BQ M5, and One Plus One too. The gear manager was working before with both phones, but when I upgraded gear firmware with first the BQ , gear manager doesn't connect anymore. Then I reset my watch, delete apps, clean mobile... restart... etc with no luck. I try to install old firmware and an old gear manager app (the one that worked before with this phone and gear firmware) and same result, stuck on "connecting...". This has happend with both phones after they both upgraded firmware on the gear s2 using gear manager. I think it's something with the upgrade process, that makes the gear manager unusable on the phone that downloads and performs the upgrade on the watch. I have to initialize the gear with a friends phone so that I can almost see the time...
searched the internet for a solution but same issue is happening already with Samsung phones to some people.
If someone have any clue on how to debug or try to trace this bug, any suggestion will be appreciated.
hello everybody,
untill last week my gear was working fine, but 2 days ago i wanted to flash null_rom because i was interested in the function on internet bluetooth tethering
i flashed the rom, i connect the gear to my note 3 ( rom s5 ported) and all was working fine, except for the fact that i couldn't use bluetooth tethering.. i don't know why!
so i decided to wipe all and reflash the rom from recovery. Then i reboot the watch and i tried to reconnect phone and gear, and i couldn't! i opened gear manager, find my gear e and paired with my device: the phone said "connecting to gear" and on the watch there was the symbols of connction between the devices.. the gear stuck on this but my phone said that was connected, but i couldn't use the watch beacuse i had always the animation of connecting devices on the gear!
i didn't know what to do, so i decided to reflash the last firmware for gear (android 4.2.2 nc1, not tizen, i don't want it!). Now the problem is worse, i think, because the gear and phone try to connect but the phone says that "the base that i tried to connect could be wrong :/ , while the gear doesn't show nothing! i have always the 2 icon of demostration of connection by bluetooth or nfc: when i try to pair the devices, both phone and watch vibrate and show the code of pairing, i accept in both of device but nothing happens! could someone help me? i also tried to unpair the devices and downgrading the gear manager to reconnect devices, but the older gear manager says that i have to upgrade the software of the gear, but i don't want tizen at all! i like android
Help me please!!
Did u use custom rom on your note 3 ? If yes try to reinstall back that rom and if still cannot then u must use original stock rom before can sync with your GG.
Hope this can give u little bit idea..... peace
So I went back to Null Rom 23 from Tizen because I got an Iphone 6 and wanted to at least use the watch with it somehow or other. This is probably a real dumb question(Most of mine are) but how Do I get past the screen at boot up where it is looking for a Samsung Phone with gear manager on it> I saw in a Video from "didi" I believe where his gear watch boots straight to the home screen without the annoying "play screen" showing how to connect watch to gear manager. Thank you all very much for answering my stupid questions... I did try and search forums for an answer but no luck. - DjSkipEllis
I try it before to connect my GG with iphone via bluetooth and it works.
But the problem is u can use it as a phone only not fully sync as u use samsung phone
and now im still try to figure it out how to fully sync it.
Hi guys, i hace this galaxy gear since november 2016
when it came i couldnt use it to pair my phone, i tried with an S7 and it didnt work, i used the stand alone mode and made it able to pair only for phone calls and sync contacts, but sometimes works and some times not.
when i factory reset the gear i get this message
"failed to connect to your gear try to connect via samsung gear refer to the manual for more information"
i know it works but i dont know if its the software version 2.2.1.3
i tried the ATT device unlock if it has something to do but in google doesnt says anything about the conectivity issue.
the bluetooth works with any android but not with my samsung or related, the website says its compatible gear s1
i give up i hope i can get answers
