Yesterday I flashed Google service to my Galaxy S6, which in 3rd party 's ROM. At first everything was OK. But today I found the app in phone was wrong. I can't manage my watch, and there's no information about my watch, but the watch is OK. I reset the watch and delete the app in my phone and pair them. The process is smooth even the watch was paired,but the app still wrong. There's nothing about my watch on it. Who can help me.

Hey guys,
Yesterday I bought Galaxy Gear. I currently own Galaxy S3 that I would like to pair with Gear.
I'm on custom SlimBean ROM with Android 4.3. I have installed the APK Gear Manager that is floating around the forum here (around 17mb), it installs without the problem, but when it comes to pairing I get a little popup that some part of Samsung SDK is not supported and the connection is being broken. Did anyone else get it to work with S3?
I have time till next saturday to decide whatever I will keep it or not, maybe there will be a solution by then. I can always return it to the store.

update us if you manage to get it to work considering samsung said that it will pair with teh s3 once it updates to 4.3 :good:
sure, no problem, but my hands are tied at the moment, unless someone have some other idea how i could possibly pair it.
Can I ask does the watch display basic functions I.e time,camera etc ? Or is it stuck a the pairing icon?

maybe there is a way to go further, but i don't see such option. it's stuck at pairing and only display battery left.
gear got gs3 and my gear paired without any issues. My gs3 is stock rom, downloaded the gear manager from Samsung app store and it all worked fine! There are some things that don't work - s voice, weather, can't install any new apps from Samsung app store but pretty much everytjing else works (calling, transfer of pics and videos, changing clock face, etc). Any questions, pls ask!
Rooted Stock Rom on my S3 and it paired fine with my 1st Watch (That went back to Best Buy, since I wasn't paying $300 until it was fully working - and my new one will be here tomorrow - had to take the 30% deal).
So it paires and the functions that worked, worked well ... Like the previous post - No apps / etc ... But Calls worked, pictures, etc

No, it's not rooted, I installed the earliest version of the manager and that one seems to be the only one that works. Today stupidly I went to Samsung app store and tried to install the new version... as the install wasn't working I deleted the version I had - and this was a mistake as new versions seem to be compatible only with 4.3. After searching this site, I've found the version that works again thankfully! so if you click here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2484065&page=4 and install the app from the last post - this should work. Let me know how you get on.
for anyone curious, using this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1910947 and this Gear Manager apk: http://depositfiles.com/files/pmgqxv9c5 will get you paired up with your Galaxy Gear.
Everything connected right up no problem.
The only issue is no notifications, which is the main reason I wanted this but its only a temporary issue. Hopefully.(c'mon 4.3 update :fingers-crossed
Camera, calls, even incoming calls, work fine, can change app settings and everything. I was even able to load GamboyColor AD and play some pokemon on it lol.
Every galaxy gear app is stuck at installing. The watch and phone are working fine together other than that. Non-Gear samsung apps install fine.
Anyone else having problems installing Gear Apps from Samsung apps?
This is on a stock note 3 stock gear. Installing eventually times out actually installing nothing. But then the samsung apps thinks it's been installed. Now I have 10 apps or so that are not on the gear that the app store thinks are downloaded and cant remove. Any help out there?
I have power cycled the phone and the gear. I have disconnected the Gear and added it back as a new gear.
Bump am I the only one with problems?

Had the same problem... when trying to install from Note III phone the Galaxy Gear Watch, the Samsung Note III phone software got stuck/hung. Also, calls out originating from the watch were not performing correctly. Lastly, I could not use the Samsung App store as it would show an error saying something along the lines of not being logged in to access apps or some such. Only remedy seems to be to wipe the Note 3 and watch and start over again. Here is what I did:
Backup everything to Kies 3 (though other methods should be ok I assume).
Reset Note III and watch back to factory.
After reboot I made sure the phone/watch interface worked. Verifying this, then restored phone using Kies 3.
Of course there is always a bit more work than this, as the Phone's home screen/sub-screens layout need to be redone and other bits needs to be manually changed back to your preferences. Also, some of your e-mail account may need to be re-entered/reconfig as they were deleted and not restored. Took me ~60 min and now everything, including sideloading with Wondershare MobileGo, works great.
Same here although I am using a gs4. Everything works fine but I can't install new apps I am using 4.2.2 I figured that might have something to do with it so I'll wait until 4.3 and go from there.

me too. s4 first i was on 4.22 and couldn't instaal anything on the gear, then upgraded to 4.3 rooted it, but the problem is still there - can't install anything on the watch. even svoice wouldn't work
Samsung apps
After some tests I think that the problem is located in the Samsung apps itself.
Since we (may be all of us) have custom ROM, Samsung apps is not correctly installed or is in a older version. Remove the actualization of the Samsung apps in the app manager and restart the phone.
After that open again the samsung apps and it will install actualizations.
Some force closes after that open the gear manager and you will be able to install apps to the watch.
Seem confusing but worked for me. Already in tall ever note and line after that.
As title says I can't get the navigation cards to appear. They used to work initially on the original LG G Watch but since upgrading to the G Watch R I can't seem to get it to work. I say "OK Google navigate to ..." And it starts the app on my phone just fine but nothing pops up on my wrist. Am I missing something?
Same problem for me. Android 5.0.2. Latest Maps, latest Android Wear.
Same was here..
After i bought my watch it was on Android 4.4, after setup it with the phone it was updated automaticly to 5.0.1 and my navigation doesn't work. But today i've reset my watch and setup up again, and navagitaion works just fine. Maybe after system upgrade of the watch is good to do factory reset to effect of the new android.
Thanks for the reply lostindark, was hoping that would work for me but unfortunately it didn't. Just tried it and it still does the same thing. Just to confirm, you just tapped the reset from the settings menu on the watch right? I did that and it didn't work, then I also cleared the data on the wear app, re-paired the watch and still didn't have any effect Does the same thing mentioned in the OP, works fine on the phone and starts the maps app there but no cards on the watch.
Sorry to heat this, i reset my watch only through settings and notting more but it was worked for me. After the reset and pairing again android wear app put other apps automatically on my watch after that everything works just fine.
Thanks anyways for the suggestion mate, I ended up getting a Nexus 6 today and it is working just fine paired with this phone. Must have been something with my OPO but I have no idea what since it was 100% stock other than root.

I have LG R watch paired with Verizon HTC One. It was working fine until recent Android Marshmallow upgrade. Now the watch does not get the calls, but does get the messages but only via Coffee app. Also test notifications from Android Wear are not received by the watch, but updates for watch faces are coming through. One app, that I remove from the phone (Apollo Wear Launcher) still on the watch, even though I already went through factory reset of the watch and reinstalled Android Wear app! Also, weather updates and stock updates are no longer received by the watch...
I really like the watch, but I don't know now if it is the phone, new Android or the actual watch that cause all such problems. I think it is something to do with Android latest version since nothing else was changed for the phone or the watch.
Anyone have any suggestions? I tried everything possible except factory reset of the phone (I did it for the watch), but no luck.
Thank you for your help.

Just got my new Galaxy Watch 5. It looks great, very smooth appearance
Installed it in the usual way after removing all the old apps and starting from scratch including Watch 5 patch.
Good news - Galaxy Wear found the watch straight away and did the bluetooth pairing.
Bad news - Galaxy Wear immediately said "This watch is not supported on this phone."
I'll be having an other go later on, but it's looking like the watch will be going back.
If you have an older copy of Wearables try that after uninstalling the new version. Make sure you get all the apps for the watch.
Firewall block the old version's updates though before opening it... or it will update.
Conversely try updating everything including the watch firmware. Sequence* of your actions here can effect the outcome. Wearables can be quit the terror but I've always gotten my Buds+ to work right, one way or another
Samsung tech may be useful as may Samsung forums. It sucks but so does a lot of things; bennies for success, nothing for failure.
*trial and error, and yes it can take multiple attempts. DO NOT factory reset!
Clearing the system cache and especially a network reset may help. Make sure Wearables has all its permissions, CHECK!!! It will puke on you if it doesn't! No warnings why either
I've been back again, tried everything I learned in getting the Watch 3 to work. But this one is different, it's not like the failures before when something just doesn't work or goes into a loop. This is the first time Galaxy Wear has connected to the Watch and then said definitely that it is not comparible with the phone. I'm having bad feelings about it.
The other thing I would say though is, are Samsung going to sell the Watch 5 into China? If so it should work with Chinese phones - unless it has different firmware.
Watch 5 returned. Waiting for Pixel Watch.

Another horrible news about Vivo Security and policies.
Anyone had the Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 to work with the Wear OS version from Vivo app store?
yes i have the watch 5 pro working i have had vio x fold,vivo x fold plus and now vivo x fold 2 and it worked on all
what you have to do is uninstall all the versions you have of samsung wearables and plugins then go to this link and install this version of wearables http://samsung-gear.apk.watch/2.2.41.21071361/for/huawei-honor-8
once that is installed open up the settings of ur phone go to bluetooth and connect to your watch then open up the wearables app and it will download an update follow it through and it will work perfect for you
just remember to set the wearable and watch os apps to be locked in the task killer screen and set the battery management to high power for the wearable and watch os apps to make sure you get all your notifications and for it to stay connected

I have both watch 4 and watch 5 connecting to vivo without any issues. Do not use the Samsung wearable app from the play store but use the above apk. Once the phone is synced, all the Samsung plugins gets updated to the latest version.
