So I got the virtual reality headset for my s6 the other day and it isn't working right with my s6. I'm wondering if anyone else bought it and got it working? I'm also on the firmware that we can root so I'm wondering if I need to update to the most recent firmware so it can work right.
I'm on 5.1.1, but I had to do a factory reset to get the facebook app manager to install correctly. I'm not super thrilled about having to use all the facebook apps. (yes I know Facebook owns oculus now) If you used any of the package disablers, make sure to unfreeze all the facebook apps before you start installing the oculus apps.
I figured out what the problem was. I needed to update to 5.1.1 . It was hard for me to do cause I didn't want to lose root. I did the upgrade and it works great. For 99$ the gear vr 2 is really cool. The only thing that sucks is that the apps are pretty expensive.
I got a rooted (including eDxposed) Galaxy Note 10 Plus (N975F) and planning to buy the GW3 from the USA.
So far I am able to make the phone pass safetynet, work with Gpay. Samsung Health works thanks to the modified apk from xda.
Samsung pay doesn't work on the phone.
As my phones is rooted - Will I be able to use Samsung Pay on the watch? What about ECG, BP and other fitness measurements?
P.S. To the mods - I am not sure if this is the right forum for this question. I wasn't able to find any other GW3 Q&A forum. Please kindly move it to the right forum if this is not it. Thanks.
I have also a rooted phone and wonder if Samsung Pay, ECG, BP and other fitness measurements can be used or not with a rooted phone
I have the same problem, any solution? I was able to have the health monitor app in the watch, but I can't use it as the phone app says my galaxy is rooted.
This may be slightly irrelevant to you, but I'll share my experience. I have the Galaxy Watch 3 paired to a OnePlus 7 Pro, rooted with Magisk, passing safetyNet.
ECG is not working for me (not available in my region).
Samsung Pay is not working for me. I tested with friends' Samsung phones and they don't have Samsung Pay either (therefore not available in my region so I can't test).
I've read on the forums that ECG is not working with rooted Samsung phones. Rooting a Samsung (or unlocking the bootloader, generally) trips KNOX. If you have KNOX tripped, people reported ECG not working and Samsung Pay getting disabled as well. This happened in THE UNITED STATES where ECG and Samsung Pay are usually working.
Don't take my word for it though, read it for yourself

I have one plus 7 pro with magisk and galaxy watch 3 too... I can use galaxy watch 3 as well, no problem. but when I try to use samsung health monıtor app (installed as apk seperately) it says ''samsung healt monıtor does not work with rooted phone''. safety net passed, magisk hide is on and magisk manager packed with different name. no luck
If you have knox tripped phone:
1) rooted :
- samsung pay (watch) not working
- shealth working (including sync!!!) when ro.config.tima fixed using magisk and magisk configbuild module
- samsung health monitor not working
- btw gpay working using sqlfix magisk module
2) unrooted/official/relocked bootloader:
- samsung pay (watch) working
- shealth working partialy (no sync), to use latest version find xpirt patched version, install it, open, agree to terms...then download latest apk on apkpure, install SAI from google store, settings -> sign apks.. install/update using latest apk using SAI.. now you have latest shealth with no online sync working (so forget 3rd party integrations.. google fit, xiomi scale...)
-health monitor working, but doesnt sync with shealth
Search xda for details if confused..

Samsung pay watch depends on samsung pay on phone, so if the phone isn't working, you can't use it...
S Health works fine since it's tima in build.prop set from 1 to 0...
However, the BP and ECG in Samsung health monitor, you can grab my modified apk and it will work, the app is guarded against root, not just tima in build.prop, but root apps, busybox, xposed and su commands...
Hope that helps...
Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Rooted with Galaxy Watch 3...
@Dante63
Thank you.
I already have the watch.
Samsung pay actually works just fine through the watch, although the Spay on the phone doesn't work due to tripped knox.
I tried your modified SHM on the Samsung phone, but it seems to not only check for root, but on Samsung phone it also checks for Knox and then exits with the error that the phone has been modified.
Is there anything you can do to fix it so that it will also skip knox check?
Thanks again

SPay works?
EDIT: Yes it does, good catch... thanks for the info...
As for SHM, then i might have not seen tima and it actually checks build.prop... did you change your build.prop, set tima from 1 to 0 and reboot...? Does your Samsung Health work..?
Yes, I changed build.prop and SH works, but SHM doesn't. Can you fix this?

Just to be sure, you grabbed the files from my google drive...?
If you grabbed the Carabana Mod from androidfilehost, that has root detection...
OK, what's the link and which file should I grab?
@Dante63
Just wanted to thank you for modifying the file and removing the root detection.
I downloaded it from your drive and it works perfectly!

I know it's off-topic, but is it possible to remove root/knox detection from Samsung pay app as well? (the one for the phone, not for the watch)

Samsung pay and any banking apps are heavily guarded against tempering and modifications, so it's not possible...

Yes, and still we can get safety-net to pass with the new safetynet-fix magisk module, hide magisk from other apps (including all my banking apps) and able to use them and google pay without a problem now, except for Samsung Pay app. What makes this app so special compared to the other apps I mentioned?

Samsung Pay rely on several Samsung services and framework apks which are also guarded against tampering and have root detection which is not the safety net...
Root detection comes in forms of apps installed, as you can see from Samsung Health monitor, it also would attempt to look for busybox and attempt to call "su" which is Linux command to get root access and try mounting partitions which all on success would trigger flag rooted...
So Samsung pay has additional protections aside the Samsung Health Monitor ways, it is also guarded like all banking apps with encoded strings, in other words, things you don't know what they stand for and the apps names get encoded to be compared with the provided...
Also, as long in download mode it shows custom and not official, Samsung pay won't work, it is not linked to the knox trip since official Samsung ROM works fine with everything despite the device was rooted before, knox now is mainly for voiding warranty...
I'm not much of an expert in this so some of what I said about know and Samsung pay may not be accurate...
The only things I'm sure about is how strongly they are secure against tampering and detection of root in different forms which even by having a folder named "magisk" on the internal memory believe it or not...
Thanks for the thorough and modest answer.
I personally want to believe that nothing is impossible, I guess it's only a matter of time until this will also get hacked.
The only question is - who will really want to use a hacked samsung pay app when it may contain some malwares or god knows what...

I'd rather not use modified apps related to banks and cards or anything sensitive... there is a reason why they tightened the security on them but SMH or apps that have no important info, well I don't mind if my BP or ECG is leaked lol...
Good morning. You can somehow install the Galaxy Store app on xiaomi. My watch works poorly without this app. The watch is a samsung watch 4. Measurement functions not working.
you can install this application somehow on xaiomiplease help

There you go, I have Samsung Watch 4 classic + Xiaomi 11T PRO. No need for root.

He meant Samsung Health Monitor. It is separate app which normally works with Samsung phones only.
Thank you very much, it worked.
And now I look for ROM with call recording.

No need to look for the rom, use dialler with call recording. I use True Phone. It is much better than standard dialler, and way more advanced.

Hi all.
I've spent hours trying to get the app to work with my S20 Fe rooted with magisk.
It gets stuck at the finishing pairing screen. I believe this to be a common problem
I've tried installing the modules that hide root etc. I am passing the tests in the YASNAC app if that's important.
During attempts, I have managed to get my banking app (Halifax) to work perfectly.(it previously wouldn't work because of root detecting) but now works fine. I tried the exact same things with the wearable app but no joy.
Does anyone have any ideas what else I can try please? I'm not particularly advanced with this stuff but can follow instructions and happy to play around.
Tia!
Install magisk delta they have a new way to hide,passed all applications I needed.
magisk delta link with tutorials you need: https://huskydg.github.io/magisk-files/
Yeah, Delta might work.
Weird though, I've been using the Galaxy Wearable app with my Watch 4 Classic on several different rooted phones, Oneplus 8 Pro, Pixel 5, Pixel 6 Pro, now Pixel 7 Pro and have never had a problem with root, don't even try to hide it from Galaxy Wearable. I have once or twice had pairing issues but due to other reasons.
