Gear S2/S3 weather widget - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

Has anyone gotten their Note 8 working with a Gear S2 or Gear S3's built in weather widget? I thought it was my Gear S2 messing up, but reading through reviews on the Samsung app store it appears to be a Note 8 problem. I tried a few suggestions I saw on much older devices but none of them worked (I didn't try a full phone reset but I did factory reset the watch twice).

I just checked mine and it's working fine. I'm looking at it on my watch right now. It wasn't working before on my pixel.

My GS2 is 100% ok with my note 8

SG3 working fine in my note 8

Samsung Galaxy Gear Tizen Update Problem! SM-V700

Hi all at XDA,
I am using the Samsung Galaxy Gear 1 (SM-V700) I have been trying to do the Tizen Update using Kies but for some strange reason it doesn't have an update available and my Kies recognises my Gear as a ( C9FC ) model even though my Gear Info tab on my device says its a SM-V700 strange, I am using a Mac OSx so I have to use Heimdall to do everything I have gotten no where as I need a valid .PIT file whatever one of those are lol im a noob yes I've had the watch a month and I am fed up with not being able to do much more on it now.
I have used Cydia Impactor and no results, I have enabled the USB Debugging, I don't know what more I can do.
I have a few screen shots of my device and my kies and what it says.
First Image shows my device connecting this took about 20mins until it finally moved on to the second step:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Second Image Shows my device connected as a strange model number ( C9FC ) this also shows that my device has no new updates.
Third Image shows that I am using Kies 3.0 on my mac.
Fourth Image Shows my Samsung Gear is in fact the SM-V700 model.
And Finally the Last Image is in fact an image of my Gear's screen showing it's Gear Info Page.
If anyone has any information as to why my Gear cannot have the Tizen update or if in fact if I can, if I can please help me try and work it out as I have been sitting here on my mac for the last 6 hours trying to work it out and I am getting pretty frustrated now.
I am also in need of a .pit file if anyone has any way of getting one of these that would be amazing.
Many Thanks BonkerzHD

No pin option on action memo.

I recently was watching videos of the options on what you can do with the s pen. Notice on mine and a friend of mine we don't have the option to pin a action memo on home screen. As seen in this video around 3:50

That's strange mine is there.
I don't have it either. Even tried switching back to TW instead of nova, no change. I would actually use that feature too!

That's very strange. I understand some international models do not have that feature. What is your model number?
I found out it is nova, I deleted it. Rebooted and sure enough it was there. Evidently nova has to fix it.
I have the tmobile version, usa. I didn't try uninstalling nova, just disabling it and that didn't work. Hope they can fix it.
No pin for action memo
I have Note4 on Verizon. I do not use Nova. I have no pin option either. Verizon also chose note to have to tab view feature in settings, only list view. I wish carriers would leave the original features in and keep their own features out unless requested.

dual photo feature from Note 5 and on?

Is it me or does the Note 8 not have the dual camera feature like every device since the note 5?
(Front and rear photo)
Maybe I'm reading this incorrectly... This phone is the next Note after the Note 5. So I'm not sure what you mean by every device since. Unless you really mean EVERY single phone released since 2015?
Anyway, I've heard from other users here that the feature is not available.

I mean every Samsung device from at least the note for I believe.
Haven't used it since note 4, but had it on S7Edge, Note7, andS8+ after that. Not available on Note8 for some reason.

Note 8 Pie Issue

Hi all I'm like many others and I am trying out for note 8 android pie and one ui beta. Working great aside from one issue. I stopped getting text messages on my gear s3 watch. So I factory reset my phone and watch and now it says something isn't compatible. Won't even connect. I know it's a beta, just wanted to see if anyone else is having this issue or where to look for a possible solution aside from downgrading.
Thanks.

Install the plugin apk HERE, then navigate to Settings>Apps>Gear S Plugin>Storage then clear Cache and Data. You should have no issues pairing then.
Thank you
Could you kindly explain how do I enter/participate in the Android Pie beta for Note8?
I am really looking forward to this

Question Problem with Huawei GT Watch

Hello there to everyone.
I have a disconnecting issue with my watch and would like some help if anybody knows a solution.
I have bought the Find X3 Pro and paired it with my Huawei Watch GT through Huawei Health App. Everything ok till then.
The problem is that the Phone closes the Health App in the background whatever I do.
I gave it the permissions to run in background and auto start and even locked it in the recent tag but still no luck.
It keeps always disconnecting.
The Phone is great but my Watch is useless.
Thanks in advance for your replies.

I can't find the last option on my phone.

I too recently got an Oppo Find X3 Pro and had trouble connecting my HONOR MAGIC 2 smartwatch and solved it by installing Huawe's APP Gallery.... https://huawei-appgallery.it.uptodown.com/android
