Got the new Gear VR for the S6/S6 edge .
They gave it to me at launch to the first 12 customers that bought the S6/S6 Edge in South Africa.
Yes I know weird !
A product that's not even launched as yet !
Insane.
Anyways guys am having issues after I put the S6 in the gear vr device in it tells me to take it out as it needs to Run the setup process and install the apps.
No matter what I try after doing that it always says no connection. Yet I have a working WiFi connection as well as mobile data connection from which I've tried it numerous times.
Any ideas what I can do to make it work.
I've also downloaded the Oculus mobile apk and installed the Oculus Cinema Apk on the phone. Still nothing works.
Any help will be appreciated .
Did the vr come with SD card? If so, put the SD card in and it should install and setup. At least that's what I did on the note4 vr. It might be different.

People with the wrong CSC have run into that issue on the Note 4 as well. Download Phone Info+ *samsung* and check your active CSC. Had the same issue with a custom rom, and had to reinstall the full firmware via Odin in order to get the error fixed (flash the firmware under CSC in Odin).

Shouldn't be a problem. Try downloading the official rom from sammobile and installing it from ODIN's csc field. That's at least how I solved the same error message.

Just download the tool I mentioned earlier to see which one. If that doesn't work you could also try one from one of the supported regions and changing the CSC to match (US/UK primarily).

I am already storage challenged with the Note 4 and a 128gb sd card and have to content juggle with the Gear VR. The S6 would be too constrained for me without the sd slot. Even the 128gb model, since I already have 23GB more storage than that with my Note 4 and 128gb sd.
The Gear VR2 needs a micro sd slot so people can put content on that and not hog up internal storage space. Very shortsighted of Samsung not to do that for the S6 version and will constrain consumers loading content. Especially for video content.
They released an update on the Galaxy App store yesterday
So all is working now
It's really awesome.
Pixelated tho .
But the experience is overall really impressive !

Welcome to the club! Now go buy yourself a decent controller and set up an american credit card (to get the US paid store just download freedome from the play store and use code “w9f4ct” to get a couple of months free use). There was another thread which detailed how to set up an american credit card.

I just bought my gear vr today for my note 4 and for the same problem, all I did was restart the phone and the went through the setup again and it worked. Maybe try restarting the phone first before making the solution more complicated?

It's really immersive.
Lacks picture quality . But is basically a glimpse into the future.
I know Samsung is going to make one without a phone and slap a curved oled 4K screen in one.
That's the only way to solve the pixel story with the lenses.
But over all . If you're into watching movies and series on a huge screen with watchable quality videos then it's pretty insane.
Games too are insane.
Lacking in the graphics quality but that's because of the pixel story.

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 screwed up. I bought the Gear 2 Neo & thought it would work with Nexus 5 Lollipop
There is no option to return it because I bought it from another country.
Do I have any recourse or way to use the device? Even with limited functionality?
Any help you can provide would be appreciated. Are there are foreseeable plans of a Samsung update to allow pairing with Nexus 5 Lollipop?
Thank you.

How likely is it? Is using Gear Manager a compromise compared to Android Wear?
Would it be better to just sell the watch and get one that is more compatible?

I tried it on a very early alpha version of lollipop on my Samsung device and it worked. But I hate to burst your bubble, it will be at least another couple of months until it is stable and more generally available. It relies heavy on gear manager which relies on the touchwiz environment. Why, for Pete's sake, this route was chosen is maybe one of Samsung's downfalls. Within two years they will be out of the market if they keep going with their business model, this consumer market does not care, but like you, will remember. Examples of such electronic giants reduced to rubble? Nokia, Nortel, Blackberry
Consumers want stuff to work, simple without all these prerequisites that are in fine print.
Tbh you are best of selling or donate it to a family member with a Samsung phone that has to be running Jellybean 4.3 or KitKat. Preferably a galaxy phone so S4, Note3, ß5 or Note4. Others.... Will not work without breaking their OS
Sad but true
Anyone tried Gear 2 Neo to see if it works with the newly pushed Android 5.0.1 on i9500 and i9506?
I'm curious if it will work from day 1 on i9505 when 5.0.1 will be pushed to these devices.
Thanks!
I have i9506, nordic edition and gear 2 neo, and they work together. Even better than on Kitkat, as s health was not receiving the Gear data for pedometer and such.
Now even that works. My s4 on the otherhand is laggy as hell with 5.0.1 , but that is not the issue here
I've installed i9505 5.0.1 and Samsung Gear doesn't work anymore. When started, it blinks a 1-2 times and crashes silently. I cannot connect to the watch with anything else (Android Wear for ex.) either.
Any ideas?
Later edit: I enabled bluetooth debug in Android Wear and tried several more times to connect through S-Gear and now it seems it connected and is trying to install additional software... hope it works out.
Haha, phone did a factory reset on the watch and now I'm trying again to connect to it .
Later edit: after managing to soft brick my phone, I reinstalled the 5.0.1 and this time, amazingly enough, Samsung Gear worked as it was supposed to so my watch is back to normal functions again.

Hello,
I tried every possible thing I found on the internet. Even went to change the name of the phone and model in /system files, without any success. I did manage, after downgrading to 4.4.4 to connect to the gear 2 neo, but I couldn't use any of it's features except answering the phone via the watch. I'm thinking maybe I can change the ROM of the watch to tizen and then make a connection with android wear. I searched but didn't find anyone who did this on gear 2 neo. Theoretically, it should work. I will post if I manage to do something.
Cheers,
Alex

Answering calls work with Lollipop too,just pair watch in Bluetooth settings. Second... You should install Android rom on watch,not Tizen. There is also Android Wear mod possibility... Roms for Gear 2 should also work on Neo (except camera)

i acctualy added it while settuoing my galaxy watch.
although my phone is rooted, launching spay from the watch allowed me to gain access and configure samsung pay on the phone. i initially did not configure spay on the phone.
i can maybe try and replicate the steps when i switch roms.
but anyways, if you dont have a smart smart watch then i dunno.
but when you are asked to pay on the galaxy app store, cant you choose from other providers?

So you had to Magisk Hide all these apps. I will try to hide all of them. I don't think it will give me the missing option of adding Pay Pal Account but it might give me to pay with already added Credit Card.
I received my Galaxy watch three yesterday here in Canada. I know officially the new features such as ECG are not available here. I'm doubtful they will be anytime soon. How can I somehow get these features outside of the US on my device? I'm pretty sure it's possible but I'm not sure where to start and look for proper watch three instructions that won't mess up my device. Thank you.

There's some discussion on the subject here

I still can't figure out the proper procedure for the Watch 3. ?
I was using online chat to Samsung support yesterday in the UK and he told me that the ECG and blood pressure monitor would be working when I receive the watch next Friday.
Unfortunately, I didn't get a copy of the message transcript although I guess I could ask for it.
Does anyone know if this is true?

One question: will there be app updates available for the patched versions?
WIthout PC option worked perfectly on US BTE model.

I know the contacts do not sync for us pixel 4 XL owners, but Samsung store person told me that other features need Samsung phone. Hope someone can confirm.
I followed the video and the new SHM app appeared on my watch for a second but when I clicked it, it just closed and then disappeared.
Now, whenever I try to install the "Retailmode" app, I get the message on my phone that the APK was installed, I see the samsung accessory service transferring it to my phone but the the wear app pops up a toast saying "failed to install the app".
I checked under my wear app's list of installed app and it's not there (should it appear there)? Any idea what's going on? This is a US model GW3.

Can you give maybe additional and more specific background infos?
GW3 means what?
BT like SM-R840 or LTE device like SM-R845U?
Firmware Version?

Hey
I am using Google Pixel 4 phone and i dont see the contacts showing up on my GW3
I have checked the appropriate permission settings on both the devices and it looks good. I see some people in reddit posted this as well with a Google device. Does anyone else seeing this or found a solution.
Samsung says: reset your device
Because your not using a samsung device, well phone. Certain service apps only work on samsungs osapk.

That's incorrect. This worked well with the same phone and Galaxy Watch.
Thank you for trying to correct me, yes the newest version of tizen is limited to Samsung only.

Samsung support does not know about it may be then. They should have told me right away that this is a known issue. Thanks for correcting me.
Have you gone through and made sure you have everything downloaded? This year seems to require samsung accessory service to work right.

Yes, looks like i have done everything. I do see the Samsung Accessory service running often. Able to transfer file and install apps to my watch from the phone.
