Hello,
I was wondering if anyone can assist with this. I have a Galaxy Gear and upgraded from a Note 2 to a Note 3 now on my note 3 it is not transfering the photos that I take from my gear to my Note 3. The Auto option is on for the transfer and when i take a photo it shows a icon in the corner with a x through it which I assume is for the transfer. Ive made sure the gear manager s.w is up to date. v700xxubn6 is the current s.w version on the gear itself. The bluetooth is on as well. Is there anything im missing?
Thanks,
Shawna

There is no Gear manager app in the samsung app , when i try to download from my note 10.1 2014 edition.
I downloaded apk from internet and Gear manager can not communicate with Gear. I couldn't pair them ..
My gear is activated from one demo note 3 at the store I rooted my gear, still i can not connect with my note 10.1 2014.
If i flash my Gear, if i put custom rom, can i use Gear manager ? or at least can i have notifications ? is camera working with custom rom ? I do not interest in to install android apk in my gear. I want to get notification from my tablet and take photos Do you recommend me custom rom ? or i must wait for samsung official upgrade and use just as a watch until that time.
Thanks
If you want to connect ur gear with the note 10.1, you have to reset your gear. I have my gear connected to my S4, then, when i want to connect my gear to the note 10.1 2014, i have to reset the gear to connect. Gear can't connect both devices at the same time.

Hello, i have exactly the same problem. Did you solve it ?

The following are my questions:
1. Will the galaxy gear pair with lower end device?
2. Will the galaxy gear pair with devices without bluetooth 4.0 le? (Such as bluetooth 2.1+ edr only)
3. Will the galaxy gear pair with devices that doesnt have jellybean 4.3 and kitkat (jelly bean 4.2.2
4. Can the galaxy gear work as a standalone no paired phone? Just for taking pictures.
Thanks.
1. Yes it will work on older devices, but not all. (See note 3)
2. Yes, I've paired with a Bluetooth 3.0 myself. Not sure about 2+
3. I've paired with 4.1.2 on an original Galaxy note. Not all functions worked. Just about any device with 4.3 can enjoy the galaxy gear. However you need to jump thru some hoops in order to get everything working.
4 The galaxy gear 3 is a stand alone device. The gear 1 and 2 are not. It won't work out of the box until you pair, or install null rom. Then you can use the camera by itself. The time might not be correct though.

Sooo if the gear 2 isnt paired it cant take pictures? All i need is for it to take pictures and take the captured pictures via connecting it to the pc. Can u install android on gear 2?
I know this might be a lost cause but I will ask anyway. I had my watch and loved it(still do) but since getting the Pixel XL I have had issues. These are the steps I have taken so far.
1. turned both watch and phone on and turned on bluetooth
2. watch connected to phone and reset itself
3. connected to phone via bluetooth and got the passkey (stated it would be phone audio only)
4 launched the gear manager and it tried to find it but would not (even though the bluetooth did)
5. downloaded the XDA gear manager and installed it on the phone but it force closes each time.
So anyone else with similar issue? I suspect it is the app version not being for android 7.1 or the fact the watch is no longer compatible with other devices anymore (hopefully not).
Any help is greatly appreciated on this subject.
Thank you All.
I have a friend who is having the same issue, Gear 2 on the Pixel XL. We put the app on the phone, reset the watch, but I can't connect the two. Bluetooth connection seems to work, but the app doesn't pick up where it needs to in order to complete the process. He came from a Note 4 (with a Note7 in between). I have an S2 watch I need to try this on as well, but I figure I'll likely have the same issue. Eagerly awaiting an update to fix this!

I would like to know if there's a solution to this as well. I upgraded from a Note 4 and haven't had any luck getting my Neo to show up in Gear Manager for my LG V20.
I came from an S4 and had the exact same issue as stated. It will connect through bluetooth devices, but the Gear Manager app refuses to find or acknowledge it exists.
I suggest doing a factory reset. I have to do a reset every time I flash a new rom on my phone. I have to do this on both the tizen rom and android wear.
Has anyone figured out how to connect pixel XL to the gear neo 2? I am having the same problem. Can connect to watch with Bluetooth, but will not connect through the app.
Thanks for any help.
have any of you with this problem flashed android wear to the gear 2 neo? i use it as a daily driver and its very stable, might be the solution for your issues
Had it but lost it
I had my pixel XL connect to a flashed gear2 Neo
I reset my phone and know no matter what I try it won't connect this happened at the same time they updated Android Wear. W os . I installed an old version of Android Wear could not connect I flashed different roms
I'm giving up
Hello! I just bought OnePlus Three A3000 Android 6.0.1 and I'm wondering if it's possible to connect it with my Gear S. I have a Samsung Gear app (from auto-backup from my last phone - Galaxy S5) but it can't find my smartwatch (yes, I made it visible). But apart from that I can connect with it using Bluetooth menu but as you know it gives nothing...
So, is there a way to use my Gear S on OnePlus Three as I used to use on Galaxy S5?
My Samsung Gear S3 does not connect with my Mi 8 device. When I try it with Gear manager, it was connected well but suddenly it was disconnected. I think, there is a bluetooth issue.
Are there any people have this issue?
Same problem Samsung S3 Frontier and Xiaomi Mi 8 won't connect
I'm having the same problem with my Xiaomi Mi 8. The moment I try to synch the watch with Samsung Gear S3 Frontier, the app crashes and I can't reopen it.
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Also have tried activating all permissions in the app settings, even tried the same for Samsung Gear Plugin and Samsung Accessory Service.
and did you deactivate any battery saver functionality in miui?

Did you reset your s3 to factory?
After you reset, unpair,reboot phone and gear
Now it will show up again.
I had the same issue, if it still doesnt open, you have to give more permissions to gear s..
That did the trick for me, and yes you also need to do for samsung accessoir services
Good luck
Im having tje same problem but with my Mi 8 se. When it attempts to pair and connect at setup, the app just closes....
Ive tried all the solutions above but not success. Im not sure if im missing swthing here. I
same problems here, with Mi max 3 and Gear S3 - Miui 10 (8.8.23)
Gear S PlugIn crash at startup
Samsung wearables app does not appear in Xiaomi mi8
Apart from the Bluetooth connection problems, the Samsung wearables app is not downloading from the Google play store displaying the message "version not compatible with this device". Guys, "ok Google" command does not work, Netflix app does not work, and now Samsung wearables app is not working either. I am putting my Mi8 for sale right now. If this is a strategy from Xiaomi, I can assure it is suicidal!
Problem Solved - Can connect my gear S2 to my Mi 8 lite again
I have updated all three applications to latest version.
1. Galaxy wearble 2. Gear S2 plugin and 3. Samsung accessory service
I give all android permissions in the setting menu of these three apps.
And, I set the battery optimization to "no restrictions" for all three apps.
And, boom. I can now connect my phone again to my Gear S2.
My android version is 9 pie and my MIUI is 10.3.5 global and my phone is not rooted.
Welcome back my galaxy.
PS. You need to update the galaxy wearable first and then Galaxy wearable will automatically download the suitable gear s plug in for the watch.
thanks for solution... its work (set the battery optimization to "no restrictions" for all three apps)
now i can use gear s3 on my Mi 9
Make sure Galaxy Wearable is installed too

I have a Redmi 8 running Android 10 MIUI Global 11.0.2 and a Samsung Watch. I gave the apps all permissions but it still didn't detect from Samsung Health -> Settings -> Accessories. I think the BT actually did pair but Samsung Health did not take it further. I went into BT settings and told it to unpair.
In my case, Galaxy Wearable (used to be call Samsung Gear) is somehow missing from the Google Play Store. The Galaxy Watch Plugin is available though but after installing, it would hide so I cannot run it. The same happens with Samsung Accessories Service. Looking into Settings -> App Settings, the apps show up as installed.
I ended up extracting the Galaxy Wearable APK from my old phone (a SONY) using APK Extractor, selecting it from ES Explorer, and then sending it through Bluetooth to my Redmi 8, installing it from APK. Then I ran Galaxy Wearable and was able to pair it with the watch. I lost my downloaded watch faces in the process though. Good luck.
