Where do you live?
SPO2 depends on your firmware i believe. Only BP/ECG can be installed via TPK/Samsung health apk.
I'm in France and cant get SPO2 neither, it is country based.

If you're in France and you want SP02 to work, you can try resetting your watch (make a backup first) and choose e.g. Spain as region.
Spain supports Samsung Pay and SP02. And as you said, BP/ECG can be sideloaded to the Watch.
I live in Holland, but chose Spain as region. I have everything working (SPay, SP02, BP and ECG).
Thank you so much @congusto, it's work for me, in France, that was a few week that i'm looking to activate this feature so i'm happy to read your tips.

Yes i already tried this, but i'm on note10+ with french samsung store, and my gw3 is LTE version. I had resetted mobile lte when i did watch reset wifi / BT off. Still didnt work.
Maybe i did something wrong...
If you have a clear walkthrough i'd be happy to test again.
Maybe need to change samsung store on N10+ to spain too?
You need this 2 apk :

When you have reset your watch with spanish region set, install this 2 apk and the widget will be in your watch

Maybe for BT version, but what about LTE?
When you did this, did you disable wifi bluetooth etc?
Do you have a Samsung phone? Did you reinstall Samsung health?
Want to make sure that i will not reset for nothing again ?
Thanks
I've got LTE version of GW3 and a Note 20 Ultra, not need to reinstall Healt.
I've do this yesterday, and trust me i was very boring to reset the watch, but it's work good.

Well i resetted, chose language french, region spain.
No O2 widget...
Install the two apps and then, on your phone in Galaxy Wearable, you'll see in widgets section.

Did all this but no widget.
I remember having it long time ago, but it would not show up on watch (french region).
Now i dont see it anymore in Wearable.
There must be a walkthrough to have it work... Maybe it's because Samsung Health is french store version. Maybe need to connect 1st time to the watch with no internet connectivity on the phone until all steps are done. Dunno, this drives me nuts!
i will give you the step by step in few moment...
I'd do last night so it's no pssible that don't work.
Did you have install the two apps ? Did you had activate ECC ?
When ECC is activated, go in Galaxy Wearable and let's see the new widget are comming, ECC, blood pressure and SPo2, just add, save and see to your watch...
Here you can follow every step, title is "Galaxy Watch 2" but it's exactly the same for GW3

Yup i've had ecg/bp for over a month already.
But no o2 widgets shows up.
Did you reset Galaxy wearable app?
The account im logued onto Wearable has parameter region France (same as the phone).
I think there's some region conflict but cant figure what, something that doesnt allow me to see this widget. I might try again without Samsung health app on phone just to check... damn
Is you watch connected to LTE? Mine is (disabled though for the reset).

So, my watch is LTE version, and connected.
Did you follow the steps in the Youtube video ?
i repeat one more time, after install the two apps, try ECG, it's work good, and go on your phone, check update Samsung Health (ver 6.12.1.001), Wearable (2.2.34.20091461) + Watch3 Plugin (ver 2.2.09.20090251) and watch firmware (R845FXXU1BTG7). After this, in Galaxy Wearable on your phone, let's see the list of widget available, and you'll see, when scrolling down, Samsung Health "oxygène dans le sang" , put the + button on the left and save, wait until watch and phone sync. and that's all.
That's exactly what i'm doing for have this feature.
@adfree that's why we use this method, to activated this feature, that's what i do last night and it's ok for me.

I think the LTE version of the watch is the problem. I have the BT version and all I have to do to change the region to a selected group of Western Europe countries is a reset. The watch asks which region you want when it restarts after the reset. LTE is not supported in Holland, where I am, so I guess the group of countries to chose from is even more limited (one only?) when you have an LTE version.
It's not the phone CSC I think. My Note 10+ is on PHN (Holland) and that is irrelevant for the choice I got on the watch.
There is no matter with LTE version because i've do it on mine.
Just follow the step in right order, and that's work find.
I've found the solution in a mix of a topic here on XDA forum, and the Youtube video that i linked here.
Work for everybody, no conflict with other region of the phone because only watch region is important.
So, for everybody want to have SPo2 available, just follow the step, that's all. You don't need to look for a problem, there don't have anyone.

Of course i did follow, i have also the same versions as yours. the widgets BP and ECG appear but not Oxy.
But blood oxygen will not show up, whereas it was fine before. Did you use language : France (France) and Region : Spain ?
I remember that i used to see this widget some time ago, when i had chosen region France i could see Oxy in Wearables but wouldnt show up on watch.
Now i just dont see it anymore in Wearable.
I"m going to restart and retry over... Been like 4 times already
Anyways thanks much for your help. Hope i get it solved.

Not a problem with region, read above
Region Spain and language French, that's right.
When your watch is reset, for the first connection with your phone, in wearable you need to add new device, and appair as a new, of course. And when it's connected, you can run save. After install the 2 apk, run Samsung Healt Monitor freshly install, from your watch, launch ECG config, run one time, go to your phone apps Wearable, widget etc... That's what i do.
I can try to make real tuto, maybe a video to explane all process step by step, but really, i don't want to reset my watch now 'cause everything is done, save and more but if that's the only solution, i think i can do.

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?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
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.
Hi all,
I've had my LG Watch Sport since the beginning of the year and Android Pay worked fine in Android 7.x on this device. Since the update to Android 8 it is always disabled. I have manually re-enabled it and updated it which then it works for a short while, then it disables itself again.
I've used it fine and the bank I am with supports this, but it is starting to frustrate me that this function has now gone (well, not really, just have to re-enable the app every time I want to use it so not convenient) when I have gotten so used to it. I can use it on my phone fine.
The Android Wear version from the watch information is 2.7.0.1778645119 and there do not seem to be any other updates available at this time.
Someone on one of the Google threads has indicated that it is due to the region being locked on these devices - so if you are not in the US or UK, you cannot use Android Pay.
I am curious to know if you are experiencing this issue if you are located in the US or UK. There doesn't seem to be too much noise in the forums here about this, so I am guessing it is working fine for the US and UK folks where this is supported.
Also wondering if anyone knows how it determines its location - whether it is like the Microsoft Band 2 where you can set your phone up as US first, then change your time zone, etc to your location and keep using it, or if the new Android Wear and Android Pay do a GPS lookup on the watch before operating.
If this works fine for all our US and UK owners, maybe we can set the watch up thinking it is in a different location and see if it gets disabled? It would seem silly to have it disable once set up, as I would forsee travelling with this device and just being able to conveniently use this for both store cards and credit card without having to bring anything else.
I can not believe this, it do not want either.'
Any country that supports Android Pay the app should work

I have the same issue. I have had LG Watch Urbane 2nd before and there had been Android Pay working well. Now I have to enable it after approx. 1 hour.
I've got the watch one week ago, there was Android 7.1.1. I had to join beta testing, then I got Oreo.
My country is suported by Oreo and also Android Pay is supported (Czech republic)
Has anybody an idea how to fix this? Very annoying.

I purchased the watch because it has NFC and Android Pay support.

LG or Google should face & fix this problem.
It's a problem for all devices with Oreo, not only LG Watch Sport

Do you mean all devices or only all wearables? Should I stop upgrading to Oreo on my phone?

Lots of good info here.
Having read this and upgraded both my smartphone and my watch to Oreo 8, I tried Pay today. And it did work with both the LG watch sport and my Oneplus 5 (rooted). Suprisingly, the Pay on the smartphone now worked in a shop where I could not pay with smartphone/smartwatch before.
.....
Keep in mind only Non-Americans seem to have issues

Android Pay on Android Wear supported only in US and UK
I'm Huawei Watch 2 user also probably soon affected by this. To work around this, I prepared a proxy app that takes only two more taps to enable and launch Android Pay. https://forum.xda-developers.com/android-wear/development/app-pay-enabler-android-pay-oreo-t3750815 Any thoughts/feedback?
Thank you. I appreciate it but we should pust to Google to enable it.
I tried the application and I like it.
One suggestion: is possible to check if Android Pay is enabled and if not, display the page for enabling, if yes, start AP? Then I could set hardware button to your application and it would start what is necessary.
EDIT: I checked source code and you alreadyd did it! Thanks, it works well!

Hello,
I try to transfer photos from my Galaxy watch to my S10, but without success ... (in the other direction, it works without problem)
The tests I have already done:
- install different explorers on the watch > same result
- connected my S10 to my wife's P30 Pro > same result
Then I cut the BT, cleared the cache and deleted the data from the BT application.
After that, I reactivated the BT and reconnected the watch and the P30.
From there, transfers between the P30 and S10 worked in both directions and the same for the watch!
So I thought I had fixed the problem ...
This morning I wanted to transfer a photo from my Galaxy watch to my S10e again and it no longer works .... I did the same attempt again by deleting the data and the cache of the BT application, restarted the phone and the watch, but nothing to do ....
I even made a Wipe Cache Partition, but that didn't change anything ....
I specify that the "dialogue" is established between the watch and the phone, when I send the photo from the watch, there is the notification on the phone (and I can see the watch in the Galaxy Wearable app)
The only difference is that when the transfer works, there is a request for acceptance on the phone then, after validation, the transfer is executed.
Conversely, when it does not work (as currently), I have a notification on the phone of a transfer from the watch, but not the famous validation request ....... and after a moment I have the message of failure ....
And today, I made a factory reset on the watch and my S10e, and after restoring everything, the problem is still the same.... I can't receive file on my S10 by bluetooth...
Any one can give me some advice?
Thanks...

Sadely I haven't any smartwatch to test that but I would like to know : which firmware did you flash to get One UI 2.1 on your device ?
I red in your signature that you're currently running U4CTC9 firmware version that isn't rolling out yet in France on XEF CSC (France unbranded like me xD)
that's right, i used the latest DBT
DBT is a multi-CSC firmware (XEF is include) and if your current CSC is XEF, after flashing this one with the file named "Home_CSC_xxx" you'll keep your XEF CSC.
If you're French, you can have a look at here.
Hello,
The issue seems to have been fixed with the latest update of the Galaxy Wearable app....
I have been using the Galaxy fit band (R370) and recently upgraded with the Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 (R840). I have noticed that samsung health does not connect the watch3 as a heart rate monitor (HRM) during running workouts.
Steps to reproduce the problem:
0. Pair watch3 with the galaxy wearable app.
1. Open Samsung Health app on phone (N10+ in my case).
2. On the home page, click the running man icon under "exercise" item. This should open the Running workout page.
3. On the top left corner of the map, there should be the words "Detecting...". This should be for GPS location.
4. Under "Detecting...", there is no "HRM" connection when I use my watch3. Heart rate also doesn't show in the Samsung Health app when I start the workout.
If I pair my Galaxy Fit with the phone, HRM will be connected and the band will have notification. There is no notification on the watch3 when I start the running workout. See screenshot attachments for details.
I am not sure if my particular watch3 has problems or its a samsung health issue. Can someone check if they have the same problem?

Have you installed the latest version of Samsung Health on both watch and phone? I wasn't notified of the updates for these and just stumbled across them by chance. I assume you also got the firmware update, what country are you in?

I have updated Samsung Health on phone (v6.11.0.061) and watch (not too sure how to get version number, but there is no update in galaxy store - Hong Kong version). My watch is running the latest firmware R840XXU1BTG6.
In the Samsung Health phone app, The Galaxy Watch3 is connected as a registered accessory. All stats sync from the watch to the phone like HR, stress, blood oxygen, sleep, including workouts recorded on the watch... The watch does not connect to the phone as a heart rate monitor for my run.
Hmmm, not sure then. I don't know if it's a regional thing. There have been a lot of discrepancies on health features depending on the country you are in., could it be that?
Maybe you need to speak to Samsung support, as painful as that might be!

I have the TicWatch 3 PRO Ultra and although it was a pain in the ... to make it work, Managed it with both the Chinese and Play versions of the Wear OS app installed together. it is fiddly but eventually, it works.

Tutorial unfortunately no as I did not follow any... First tried installing Wear OS from the Play store but it was not finishing the setup. Then I downloaded Wear OS from the Vivo store (the so-called Chinese version. This one does not have any Google Account integration) I gave all possible permissions to both of them (yes, they can be installed at the same time.) Then somehow the Play Store version worked and connected to the watch. I installed also the TicWatch App that is needed (in my case. Guess TAG has one too) and after some more fiddling with notification permissions, it just worked. I get all my notifications and everything seems to sync properly.
I hope that they will really release the phone in India next month, as usually, the Indian releases are Global ROMs with more compatibility with everything. Then we should be able to flash it on our devices...
I have my Galaxy Watch connected.
First loaded the Chinese Wear app, then the Galaxy Wear app.
BUT it won't stay connected. It's OK while the phone is open, but as soon as the phone logs off the Bluetooth disconnects.
I've given the Wear apps every possible permission and power settings but it just won't stay connected.
Just to update from my last post, I've decided to trade in my Galaxy Watch 3 for the new Watch 5. Will be interested to see if that makes any difference. Probably not
I have the same issue - cannot keep my galaxy watch connected (it's the 1st gen)
All is fine and after a while it just disconnects.
The galaxy Buds Live are fine and keep connected.
I'm using the Galaxy wearable app. (as these devices are not Wear OS i think)

No success with the Watch 5, as I reported in a separate thread. I'll wait for the Pixel Watch.
Got my Galaxy watch (1st gen i guess) successfully paired and it keeps connected. As long as the 2 devices are bound. (once disconnected i have to reconnect via the wear app - no big deal)
Thing is though - battery usage of the watch is through the roof. I hardly get a full day out of it.
Anyone know what might be causing this?

First gen Galaxy Watches did not have a very good battery life to begin with... 1.5 to 2 days at most with good use. Another thing is that the connection between the watch and the phone is not stable for some reason (probably due to the stupid Vivo battery optimizations or some Bluetooth issue)... For instance, my Ticwatch Pro 3 Ultra GPS (names those things) lasted about 3 days with my old Galaxy S21 Ultra but now I struggle to get 2 with the Vivo X Fold...
Which Watch work with X Fold ? It seems no one actually. i have 2/3 Xiaomi, nothing work and it's not Band !!
Samsung Watch 3 works. Samsung Watch 5 does not work.
I now have Huawei GT3 pro and it works perfectly. Does not use Wear. Great battery life, eight days so far !
I agree nt so bad... nothing better than others... But qualitative.
Everything work ?

Tutorial unfortunately no as I did not follow any... First tried installing Wear OS from the Play store but it was not finishing the setup. Then I downloaded Wear OS from the Vivo store (the so-called Chinese version. This one does not have any Google Account integration) I gave all possible permissions to both of them (yes, they can be installed at the same time.) Then somehow the Play Store version worked and connected to the watch. I installed also the TicWatch App that is needed (in my case. Guess TAG has one too) and after some more fiddling with notification permissions, it just worked. I get all my notifications and everything seems to sync properly.
I hope that they will really release the phone in India next month, as usually, the Indian releases are Global ROMs with more compatibility with everything. Then we should be able to flash it on our devices...

I have a Vivo X Note and also a TicWatch Pro 3 Ultra. Wear OS works well together with the Chinese version. The only and for me the biggest problem is that I cannot pay with a card via Google wallet from watch. When I open the apk and want to add a payment card, it says a connection error with my mobile phone, and on my X Note Wallet does not open through google play services, and I cannot add the card to the watch. I have no problem with paying on my mobile, Wallet works ok there. If I connect the watch to the Lenovo Yoga Tab tablet, Wear OS from the Google Play Store works there without any problems, and I also add all the cards to the Wallet in the watch. I read on the forums that the problem is with the new versions of the Google Play services and that it will help to downgrade the older version lower than 21.26.58. The problem is that when installing, the system gives an error and cannot be installed... So at the moment I have a working watch, but no payment, which is frustrating. Have you tried paying with your watch?

I will never work, as Android Auto, Google backup, Google Timeline and Ok Google activation.
Vivo doesn't use a full Google Play Service framework as they have Jovi application instead of Google one.
Hello
Does anyone manage to make the Remote Connection work? It's missing in the Galaxy Wear settings.
I'm guessing it's related to the Wear OS China version app.
