that's the tutorial for non-samsung- non nexus devices,

just remember this:

DO NOT download gear manager from samsung apps, use an older and working version like the ones posted in the first page, (1.6, 2.0) and in samsung apps disable automatic updates of the apps, with the new version of the Gear Manager this tutorial does not work, just remember to install an older one

Hey guys,

First I would like to thank every one for your input I read the forum top to bottkm.

I got my gear 2 neo for 2 days now and I have been unable to connect it to my Nexus 5 running KitKat 4.4.2.

I have emailed a couple to try to get some help but that didn't stop me from trying after several recharging and retry and deleting and reinstalling and then repeating everything over and over I have FINALLY GOT IT TO WORK !!!!!!!!.

so I decided I need to share my experience with every one here .

First of all I don't know if this changes anything but after the several retries of installing and deleting I decided to use it on my gf S3 and it worked right away and after that after deleting everything and a final reinstall of a few newer files i t finally worked.

So my method was to install gear manager 1.2 not sure if its the latest but that's the one that worked for me . Download link. http://www.mediafire.com/?yo17ta4qyrx50zj

Got that from http://www.tizenexperts.com/2014/09...092299-do-you-still-have-problems-need-a-fix/

After installing gear manager 1.2 I ran it.

And as usual I got and error

I decided to clear data through the app info setting

And then I decided to run the connect-fix.zip found on the first page of this Thread.

Also found here http://xdaforums.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=5775&task=get

After installing I finalized everything with unpairing my gear 2 neo from my nexus Bluetooth settings. And I did a reboot.

After everything rebooted I ran gear manager and scanned for my Gear and I found and pair it with my nexus and it finally initialized and voila it works.

I get SMS, Facebook , I can answer phone calls and talk using my gear .

Hear rate and other apps seem to work haven't tried everything yet.

I do have an issue how to sideload apps on my gear 2.

My gf S3 has an app store and I don't .

Any help would be appreciated and I hope this helps others.

[Samsung Gear 2] gypsy214:
I can confirm this one works... I tried to do it like I did before with this thread but gear manager kept telling me I had to update or cancel. And you all know the new version doesn't work for none Samsung phones.... hope someone can make the new gear manager app working with lollipop and none Samsung phones without host force closing.

I had to downgrade to kit Kat to use my gear .. I am tempting in trading it with a Moro 360 but the camera on this watch is good when you wanna take a quit picture without getting your phone out of the pocket.

Change the build prop entries like i said earlier

Then delete all gear manager, gear related apps and any samsung apps from /System/app and /data/app

Then restart your device

Then push gearmanagerstub to /system/app

install the latest gear manager (or whichever version works so that all necessary dependencies get installed)

push latest samsung apps to /system/app

restart device

reset gear and reconnect with your device and profit!
[Samsung Gear 2] mpogr:
I did it last night. Just decided to start from scratch after changing build.prop and pushing Samsung Apps to /system/apps and reboot. Removed the old Gear Manager and other APKs it installed. Cleared Dalvik cache , cache partition and fixed permissions.

Then searched for Gear Manager in Samsung Apps. Installed it and Fitness with Gear that appeared in the results of the same search. Reset my Gear 2 Neo and unpaired it from the phone. Upon firing up Gear Manager, it complained the app was not compatible with my device. Fetched the old Gear Manager Stub apk, pushed it into/system/apps, reboot. Now all good. Gear Manager comes up without complaining, paired and connected with the watch. Installed a bunch of additional apps without any prompts as it did before with the old version of Gear Manager. There is a crash in Gear Update Software, but we're not concerned about it. Now, I have access to Fitness apps from the phone. However, it's not very useful, as data can't be synchronized to Samsung account (clicking on Sign In does nothing). Also, there is access to Samsung Apps for the watch. Updated Watch On remote and installed Diamond watch, Glympse and FBQuickview . All seem to be working fine. Pity there are so few apps for Gear 2 now!

Also, additional built-in apps became available: Schedule (works), Messages (works, can send text messages to contacts using templates), Media Controller (works!). Email still doesn't work as well as alarm notifications. Missed calls notifications work, but you can't browse call logs. Weather doesn't work either. Regarding S Voice, it's available on the watch, when activated, opens Samsung Apps on the phone and asks to download it. It downloads and installs fine, but then fails to open. The S Voice binary posted up this thread doesn't crash, but it's not recognized by the watch either.

Last, I also briefly played with making device model in build.props SM-G900F, which corresponds to S5 (the currently suggested GT-I9500 corresponds to S4). With this change, Samsung Apps allows me to download and install S Health. However, it crashes upon launch. So, at the moment, we're better off with Fitness for Gear, which, at least, synchronises to the watch, although can't do anything beyond that. More findings to follow...

Try closing out of the application completely, and then reopenning and connecting again. Make sure you're on the connecting screen of your G2 also

---------- Post added at 02:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:14 PM ----------

BTW, after build.prop change and all new installation, 11+ hours since the last phone reboot, the notifications are still arriving at the Gear. That's probably longer than I've ever experienced so far (without need in phone reboot). Can be attributed to the newer version of the Gear Manager though.

Let's see if it'll hold...
[Samsung Gear 2] thesparky007:
Apps are still there and I never experienced notifications not going through before or since

Everything works, only Samsung Apps doesn't - maybe there is any version for 4.2.2 or something?

Gear 2 and Huawei Mate 7 Dual-Sim

Many thanks [MENTION=1664413]fariswheel[/MENTION] (& everyone in this great community!) for sharing your experience! It helped me a lot!! :)

I've recently given my Galaxy Note 3 to my wife and got myself a Huawei Mate 7 dual-sim, also a really great handset...I used to be a happy user of my Gear2 and regretted losing all its functionalities due to not having a Samsung phone anymore. I did some research and couldn't find any reference of other Mate 7 users pairing it with a Gear smartwatch until I found your post here...

I followed your instructions and after many retries and tentatives (reinstalling, replacing, etc) finally I got it working!! ALMOST EVERYTHING is working, except SMS notifications (probably due to the fact that Mate 7's default SMS application is not called "Messages"). Also still need to work out the S-Voice, as it seems to be working but the voice recognition is not picking up properly the voice commands. Other than that, I was able to re-install all my Gear apps (from my existent Samsung account) using the Gear Manager (recently installed on my Mate) and they're all working fine including the ones making use of watch's camera (Undercover), infrared (Smart IR Remote Lite), microphone (Gearam Music ID)...

p.s.: I'm very pleased and surprised that my Gear 2 works with BOTH SIM CARDS, so I'm able to talk/answer phone calls on both SIM's!!

Many thanks again and in case anyone has a tip on how to fix my SMS notifications, I'll be very grateful to learn how to!!

Guys, keep up the great work in here!! Cheers!

Build.prop

I just thought about changing the build.prop of my Oneplus One to an ID matching to a Samsung device, like the S5.

Could that make my OPO able to fix the "I will only connect to Samsung-devices"-Problem of the Gear Manager?

Just an idea... correct me if I´m wrong :)
[Samsung Gear 2] fernandogdl:
yes

Yes it will, it is posted on the first page of this post, to be able to use apps that communicate directly to the phones is recomended to change de build.prop i changed mine and i have my gear s 2 neo working 100% on a motorola moto g with 4.4 kitkat

[Samsung Gear 2] fernandogdl:
i really don't know as i don't own a bluetooth headset, but i really think it will not work as the gear is in permanent connection to the phone, and the phone uses the gear as an external bluetooth speaker for calls....

way to much work...

Have a Mate 7 non rooted all I did was install the gear manager apk and found the watch then it auto installed like 7 additional automatically and everything works fine for me accept weather and svoice. Mate 7 is on 4.4.2.

Here is the gear manager I installed. After it installs the additional apk's and phone tries to connect hit cancel then relaunch gear manager from phone and done.

[Samsung Gear 2] fernandogdl:
Hello

Yes, this happened to me the first time i tried to install the gear manager to the moto g, but with multiple error, notifications didn't worked correctly, and the most important, i couldn't install apps, so then i uninstalled, and when i tried to install again the method you mention did not work anymore, gear manager did not autoinstalled anything anymore, and besides if you don't have the gearmanager stub commmunications won't work, so you are one of those lucky guys that got it working, the easy way, for the rest 99% of people, we have to do it the hard way if we want to even use the gear.

One question tho, can you install apps from samsung apps directly to the gear? and purchase? i have never heard of anybody that was able to do that without changing the build.prop and giving root permission to some apps.

Hello My friend

I have purchased a new phone, and unfortunately i could not got it to sync with my gear 2 neo, the only solution i had to be able to use the the Galaxy Gear neo again (and not sell it) is to port it to Android wear.

Yesterday i installed unofficial android wear in the Gear 2 Neo using instructions on this post:

http://xdaforums.com/gear-2/development/please-help-kernel-compiling-android-t2992953

Be sure to check the Q&A section to see a youtube tutorial.

Now i can pair my Gear 2Neo with any phone i want with a few drawbacks, i can't use the IR blaster for example, or the Mic, BUT it is a work in process in a few weeks / months it will be working.

So Far the only advice i give to you is to do the same, Android Wear works good and it's actually A LOT easier to install and pair that with tizen.
[Samsung Gear 2] PoopDonkey:

got it working on my OnePlus One

Hey guys,

just wanted to share my experience i had with my OPO and my Gear 2:

So far some Information about my devices:

OnePlus One OS:

CyanogenMod 12.1;

Android-Version 5.1.1;

rooted

Samsung Gear 2:

Software-version: R380XXU0BND8

status:

after fiddling around for a couple of hours, i made my gear work so far, that i could even use the s voice commands like "call daddy" and whats the weather in mannheim (the city i live in). That worked quite well and was surprising because i often read about the svoice not working.

But in that time the notifications wouldnt work so i began fiddling around another couple of hours removing and installing different version of apks and following different tutorials.

Now i got it working like most of you i guess:

Notifications work, calls work, contactlist etc. but no svoice anymore...

How did i come that far?

Well...

After reading lots of posts and trying this and that, i can't give you a straightforward explaination of what i did but i can explain the rough way i went :

What i did is a mix of the following instructions (thanks to mr8th and zelduy):

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=60671070&postcount=357

until about point 9. Where i stopped because the 30-times-tapping wouldn't work.

As he said he replaced the hostmanager with an older one (you need to change build.prop to the orig one when installing the hostmanager) and also the saprovider and goprovider files with the one you can see in his list above the explaination.

2nd Instruction: http://xdaforums.com/gear-s/general...er-connect-t2934307/post59855236#post59855236

I'm not here for explaining how it works (i really have no idea anymore on detail, but don't you give up!).

The reason i post here is to tell you guys out there that it still works (i wasn't sure when reading those 4 months old posts) and that there seems to be a possibility to make svoice work and maybe has nothing to do with touchwiz?

If anyone has a clue on how to get access to the samsung apps and the svoice i would appreciate it very much!

If you have any further questions let me know!

Excited about your thoughts and hope this helps,

in regards,

Can you tell me something about that fact?

Thanks in regards,

[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
Yes you're right, that might be a show stopper for gear2 users wanting to use Android wear.

But still worth concideration..

Flashing AW on the gear2 is a two minute job, going back to Tizen I don't know, haven't done that ;)

I'm (that is: my sons) use the gear 2 Neo, so that is not an issue for us.
[Samsung Gear 2] tembares:
I agree. Today I installed Android wear on my watch after it had been on my night stand for more than half a year.

It is really great. I hated to call from my phone. Everybody can hear you talking. The camera inside the watch is bad quality. I don't miss it, only for some soy functionalities ☺

I am really happy I made the move. Well... A round watch is nicer. So maybe I am going to switch later.
