It look similar but not the same.
Two months ago is not material design, most obvious in header where got multi color tones.
Now is single colour tones.
It is not old and different as two months ago.

Gear Fit Manager hasn't been updated.

New screenshots on top. (set lang to english)

מI also got a S Health Material update

Me too, just last night. It doesn't look massively different but definitely more refined in terms of design.

[REF] Gear manager downloads, current version: 1.7.031004 | 2014-03-16

Please read first:
I have moved on to the HTC One M8, I don't own a galaxy phone anymore, and have sold my gear. I won't be keeping this thread updated anymore, but please refer to Brendo's thread (link below) which he appears to be maintaining. Cheers. ps, i really miss the gear, but am just sick of samsung phones for the moment. can't wait for the moto 360!
Brendo's gear manager thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2573200
Hi All,
Here's some versions of the Gear manager APK I have managed to collect. Hopefully the historical versions might be useful to some, and the current version useful to people wanting to run Gear manager on a non Samsung/Touchwiz phone/ROM.
Latest version, 16th March 2014
1.7.031004 - poor watch battery life? I would stick with 1.6.132701 right now.
Historical versions
1.6.132701
1.6.131003
1.6.111801
1.5.123002
1.5.121601 - this version was a bit buggy
1.5.120903
1.2.131013
If you have other versions feel free to send me a link and I'll host.
For those running non-TouchWiz phones, you might be able to get the Samsung Apps app working by having a look HERE.
HTH.
Changelog
As usual with Samsung, we don't often get real changelogs, but occasionally people work it out or Samsung's PR team let it slip.
2.0.14031004
Watch manager that comes with the Galaxy S5
1.7.031004
Unsure, but I have gotten pretty bad watch battery life with this version. I went back to 1.6.132702 and battery mostly went back to normal.
?? initially I thought this would be for 1.6.111801, but I installed it and it doesn't feature these updates. So possibly this is a future changelog of an unreleased version
Improved pedometer accuracy
Add setting menu “Motions”
Change motion menu for wake up gesture
When connecting to device again (example: after powering on), send notification of all unread messages
Changed to send notification only for new message
Fix to add popup message for BT connection without GM in setup wizard
Implemented standalone alarm
Add additional PIN lock
Changed and improved notifications menu
Implemented more notifications
Gear shows the messages of the notification of quick panel displayed on the phone
1.6.132702
First official 1.6.x release.
1.6.131003
Optimised for KitKat phone ROMs
1.6.111801
Fixed GMail notification repeats
Applies new functionality when used with ML1 firmware (eg native alarm)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2573200
cool, you need to advertise that better, maybe put some search terms or something? Make it obvious that older versions are there too.. i searched a lot when i first got my gear (for Christmas), and i didn't come across your thread
Mods, feel free to delete this thread.
I don't think that we should delete this thread. I think that we should take all the apk's for gear manager and put them in this thread for reference and keep this thread going because it is very clean. thank you Mods and thank you Omni wolf

yep neither. I guess the changelog that the Samsung rep posted in that facebook post was for a different version. Maybe it's what we have to look forward to?
Keep getting parsing error when trying to install the latest two versions. Any ideas?
Just checked-U.S.east coast-1.6 not showing
Updated through posted apk-see no difference-cnn still has no connection, weather and voice assist still in whatever language that is-no idea why these can't get straightened out-wish they would just open up app store already

Gear 2 now that Android wear is out.... #failboat

So I bought a Neo and played around with it on my work Note 3. It has fair amount of apps. Well today I bought a S5 Active. I moved my Neo over to it (requires reseting it.) and got gear manager installed. Surprise to me... It seems even though things like the clock face is an app that runs on the phone if the developer doesn't select that it works with a phone you can't use it. Which should be a simple change for most things however it doesn't seem that developers update their Samsung store apps. For the S5 active there are only a handful of apps even though I am sure 99% all the apps would work if the dev would click the "it works with an s5 active"
After dealing with Samsung support (or the lack of it) I tried to get on the Samsung app store webpage. It seems they are having server errors so it was been working like crap. I was kind of able to get contacts for a couple of the app dev's to ask that they update their app to work with the S5 active. Samsung app store doesn't provide contact information unless the dev adds it. One of the devs linked to his google+ page. Which showed he is working to get the same app with improvements to work on android wear.
This got me thinking. Who is going to mess with this crappy half baked Samsung store with Google coming out with Wear? I'd guess we won't see anyone making new Apps for the tizen watches, they don't even update it to work with new phones it will run on with no changes...
I just got the Neo and I am on the fence of returning it. I figured I could get by with apps I had on the Note 3 until someone got a Wear rom for it. With the lack of apps when paired with the s5 I am not impressed at all and after my research today I am liking it less. I got it over the wear because it was only 150bucks vs 225, it has a speaker and IR blaster and Android wear is lacking in features (sure to change in 6 months to a year). I figured by the time wear got up to speed there would be a rom. Thinking about it some I am doubtful, I think the speaker and IR blaster (camera if it is a gear 2) will prevent it from ever happening. None of the wear watches have these so I'd guess there isn't low level support.
I guess I need to return it and wait for the 360 come out.
I had the same problem with my active. I modified the build prop to identify my device as a regular s5 and have all the apps again.

I'm definitely going to sell my Neo and wait for the Moto360. I like the Neo fine, but am getting sick to death of having to run stock based ROMs. I will miss some features of the G2, but damn that 360 looks beautiful and development should be great

Phone is rooted, not the watch. I rooted by using towelroot. Look in the particular forum for your phone for instruction, I don't want to give bad advice.
I understand how to root. My question now is, will this work with any phone?

Lockscreen "My Interest" will be closed by Samsung on 17.12.2015

Today I received a message from Samsung that the lockscreen "My Interests" will end on 17.11.2015.
They do not tell the reason.
See my screenshot for the message.
I haven't found anything about this in the web.
I'm really upset about this. Samsung has promoted the feature especially.
Edit: It is 17.11.2015. Maybe a mod could fix this in topic

I care! This used to be the "Travel" wallpaper option (Note 2, Note 3) powered by TripAdvisor. On Note 4 it changed to My Interest and added new categories for image sources. I've been using it since Note 2.
Any good alternatives for Lock Screen wallpaper cycling?
I am actually using the other weather wallpaper can it is currently working
I just started using it a few weeks ago.
I mean its no surprise, Samsung backstabs customers wherever possible.
First the updates, then the stupid exclusivity (themes/slimTouchWiz), and now this?
Its just not surprising anymore.
Bought a Z3C recently, it OWNS my Note 4 Exynos regarding multitasking and performance. Never again - even if it means I have to give up my beloved ZeroLemon.
I've been using it since the Note 4 came out, I absolutely love it (used it for landscapes, night shots and travel). I will sorely miss it. Anyone have any interesting substitutes.

Yeah Exynos sucks pretty bad. My snapdragon Note 4 dances circles around my Exynos Tab S
I also tried to setup different backgrounds for launcher and lockscreen, but didn't succeed.
My idea was to use the Muzei wallpaper as a substitute for the Interests lockscreen, and have another wallpaper for the launcher (Nova, in my case).

Go to your stock camera and swipe to the left and you should see a blue box that says create my emoji. Click on that and it should redirect you to the samsung galaxy apps page. It's really useless to be honest with you. Animoji for iphone is a lot better and innovative.

Yes they did! I was cursing and saying the exact same thing.. It's just like the device manager that they took from us for well over a year.. They are always messing with something and taking it something.. And if you look at the date on the kernel, they took a good month to pull things. They're not trying to make sure anything works on their silly network.. They are just trying to remove features in the frail "hope" that it will make people upgrade to the new models.
Same thing for security patches.. Notice we didn't get one at all for 3 months, while Samsung had been rolling them out every month steady. All you have to do is either read here in some of the other threads, or simply sammobile. The latter always tells when they're is an update our patch to any Samsung device. And I just sat, read, and observed. They do this every year, with every single new devices far as Samsung is concerned.
They let Verizon do that to us. But yes, Verizon is as crooked a carrier, as a bent telephone pole.. I feel you what though, it makes me feel just the opposite. Why in the world would I, as a consumer keep investing money in a device that isn't cheap by a Longshot as far as cellular devices are concerned, when all they're going to do, is disable features, that the device was designed for by the manufacturer..
It really, at this price point to me is simply sickening.. And I really and utterly refuse....

Question Colour Pallet not applying on samsung keyboard

That looks burn your eyes out horrible without dark mode.
Other than the keyboard settings some Galaxy Store themes will change it as well.
Lol, I've used this keyboard scheme since Kitkat.

S21 firmware, compared to that made available on Note 20 (but also on S10/N10), is about 1 month old. Think how many changes can be implemented in this time frame, especially if we consider that S21 firmware it's affected by stuttering.
Unfortunately you (like me and other users on main thread) have to wait and hope that the January update arrives soon and integrates all the necessary fixes.

Could...but at this point, if issue still persist after a full wipe, it's just a firmware bug.

Sounds like a firmware bug, maybe...
Double, triple check settings including Developer options... Samsung's infamous buried menus.
It a carrier or unlocked version?
Maybe flashing another official version get it.
It almost sounds like a Good Lock module should cover it, but no such thing that I'm aware of.
