[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] SirDigitalKnight:
I have a question about this feature. I know the EU version of the SGW4 comes with the BP and ECG already enabled and it works with Samsung Health. I take it that this "[RESTRICTIONS-REMOVED]" option is only for SGW4's in other regions? Reason I ask is I'm trying to decide if I should buy the EU version or the US version when it goes on Sale for Black Friday /cyber Monday. If I go with the US version and down the road they add these features in once they pass FDA with this mode effect that in anyway?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] TheKerevas:
I also have the problem of the synchronization of the Body composition. As soon as I do it the data appears on the home page, if I click for details the last scan does not appear... After some time it appears
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] thechico1986:
Interesting. Yes, mine appeared too after about 2 hours. I've never had this issue before. It used to be instant. Not sure what's causing it.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] TheKerevas:
Same thing as me, never happened before. I hope there is a fix 🥺
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] neopolotin75:
Has anyone taken the new update and retained the mod working?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
On the BP sync section, I mentioned that updating may reset set features back to original values and disable the BP sync, change them again and BP sync will work again...

The mod won't affect anything, tale the case of Australia, they got BP and ECG approved, which means people now can switch to original SHM as soon as the update is released...

Also, the watch may have SHM but you may have your issues on the phone, for example, you open the app and it says service not avaliable in your country...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Guicholuis96:
Could you help me with this error please? I followed the whole tutorial step by step but that appears to me
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] nikos-p:
Awesome, thank you
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
Wrong thread, I answered you on Tizen thread since you posted there as well
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] TheKerevas:
For the problem of synchronization between the watch and Samsung Health regarding body composition, do you know if there is any fix? After the measurement, the results in the app also appear after hours...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
Maybe service is busy 🤔, try restarting phone and watch, if it doesn't work, sync Samsung Health to cloud then uninstall it and reinstall it, restore data from cloud and try the body composition
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] TheKerevas:
Already done but it didn't work, @thechico1986 happens too :/
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
Backup watch and reset it 🤷🏻‍♂️
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] TheKerevas:
Doing the backup just reset, do I have everything as before without losing anything? If so if I don't fix it with the next updates I will do it
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] razor26:
Hi, I have read that in order for SHM mod to work, the original SHM must also be present in the watch. I only installed the mod but it seems working. Am I wrong?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
Well, you'll need to sideload anything again, those won't be backed up, so shm mod you'll install it manually and anything else that is sideloaded

The video is outdated, it's no longer required to keep the original SHM...

Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] gerardo1000:
Hi Dante. Alright? I'm following this topic. I bought the watch 4 but I will return it. The battery is very bad and sleep monitoring is terrible. Can samsung fix this with updates? I know this topic is not for that, but I decided to ask you here if this smartwatch is going to be hopeless. A battery that doesn't last 1 day. If you use a little LTE... and other functions, forget it. I don't know why launch a watch with functions if you won't be able to use it even 01 day.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
To be honest, in Telegram people with watches, lte and bt, they have been sharing the watch battery performance and its showing over a day...

As for sleep monitoring, maybe the watch is loose or too many movements...

Or maybe you recieved a faulty watch 🤔
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] uicnren:
new watch update available. havent seen any mention, but thought I might ask. new update is available (R890OXM1CUID). Has anyone updated and does it affect the mod(s) here?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
I can answer the question about the mod and it's no, no effects on the mod since it's independent, feel free to update if you want...

Nothing will break the mod...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] uicnren:
Excellent, was thinking that would be the case, but wanted to check for sure. Thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] cmccarter:
so is the mod still required for other than samsung phones? no one has really said. really want to use the ecg/bp functions on my lg v60
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] danf604:
Installed it and works good. Thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] auhren1992:
Not working for me on pixel 4a 5g
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] auhren1992:
I have the pixel 4a 5g and when I install the app on my watch my watch will not connect to my phone thru Bluetooth as soon as I delete it off my watch it connects again
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
Not sure what your question is but this mod works on all devices

Mod doesn't affect the functionality of the watch, More details please, which file did you install on your watch?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] auhren1992:
I installed the watch on watch and phone on phone the watch showed the m
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
Would mind sharing a video of this issue, borrow a phone and use it to record how the watch disconnects because of SHM, it would help me understand more and hopefully help you fix it
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] fliptwister:
On your other post you mentioned "I had seen that restrictions were removed". Where did you see this?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] cmccarter:
one of dante's posts. but not sure if it applies to only samsung watches ie age, etc or all phones. will i still need the modded shm for my lg
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] davekaye:
Could not make it work using PowerShell. On the command to install would report "waiting for device." Finally decided to switch to CMD and then it worked. Galaxy Watch4 and Samsung Flip3 phone. Did the BP calibration and tested on the watch and it was remarkably close to my Omron BP meter. Not concerned with ECG as I'm in a permanent silent Afib (I'm treated with Rx) so it always just shows Afib as a problem. Much thanks to Dante63 for his work. I switched from the Tizen based Galaxy - never got around to installing BP on that watch. Didn't want to go through all those steps. Much better on the Galaxy4 Wear OS.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
Applies to all devices, not just Samsung
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
Tizen methods have changed and been improved but I agree, it's not as simple as this one and I also agree about PowerShell, it works sometimes and sometimes not but I don't want to repeat my previous mistake of not saying all avaliable methods, it's better to say everything and everyone can try and decide what is best...

Wish you health and safety, good day 😊
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] shawkes:
I'm going to go out on a limb and say the post you saw it on is this post. Restrictions removed refers to installing the mod removes all restrictions nowhere does it say Samsung removed restrictions.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] alfuture:
Hey i'm having a weird issue here.. i have Canadian 21 ultra and US watch 4, was able to sync BP to Samsung Health app, but the time of the data shown was 1 hour behind the real time.. any idea?

Oh sorry. juust found out someones already asked it before... guess im not the only one and just have to wait lol

Thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] auhren1992:
I'm working on video now
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] auhren1992:
Seems good so far will update in a bit
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] cmccarter:
I feel like a total newb but after serching high and low cannot find link to dante63's shared drive
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] demiller9:
Ha! Yes, I think it's hard to find, too. It's in the first post on this thread; scroll down to the part

~~~ FILES and Description ~~~ and it's the orange text right below that. There's a video below the link, too about ENABLING BP SYNC.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] cmccarter:
thank u very much. I had looked at that message a million time and didn't see the download link. my watch gets here tomorrow so wanted to get everything ready.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Koteza:
@Dante63 , firstly thanks for the great work. Wanted to ask if it would be possible to also add the spO2 functionality for regions where it's not available ?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] stoshiba:
Thank you very much, Dante63 for the modified software for the samsung 4 smartwatch, to measure ECG and blood pressure. I managed to install the application on a Xiaomi Mi Mix3 4G smartphone, and it works perfectly.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Rudy57:
Thanks it is working fine without any problems on my Oppo Find X2 Neo.

regards

Rudy
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] daasguy:
New Samsung health app update is available is it safe to update the app or will it break this mod? 6.19.1.001

Edit. I tried it, it still works just go to health monitor and turn on sync again from data and from Samsung health app settings: data permissions.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
Nothing yet about SpO2 till I get my own watch4...

That is already mentioned in the BP sync section
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Android-Vindi:
This looks great. I'm new and I just bought my mom Samsung Watch 4 trying to get ECG working on linked to her Google Pixel 3A. I saw the youtube video on install, but I do not know how to install at all on both the phone and watch. Where is the package files for phone and watch? Is there somebody able to help me with instructions on where to download the files and install? Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
It's literally in the files and Description, a Google drive link...

You're not the first person to miss it, is it really that not obvious...? I'll make the font large and try to make it very obvious...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
Ok for the phone, you just place the apk on the phone and install it (run it, tap on it, open it, all the same)

For the watch4, you could install Bugjaeger or any application that sends apps from phone to watch...

Or follow my written guide, and you'll do it just fine on your pc

PS. I hope the link is visible lol
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Android-Vindi:
You are the best dev. I see the link now. So so so appreciated with your hard work.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] cmccarter:
well my watch is delayed of course but hopefully only till saturday according to fedex. coming fro coppell, TX to SC
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] doro23000:
Can t find either
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] jtOttawa:
It's here in the original post:

!!!DON'T FORGET TO TURN OFF ADB ON THE WATCH, IT WILL DRAIN YOUR BATTERY!!!​

*ehm* enjoy the SHM MOD now 😆...

~~~ FILES and Description ~~~

Here is the link to the files I am using:

Google Drive - WearOS - SHM No Root, Country, Device, Update, Age Detection + Watch4 SHM MOD
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] doro23000:
Finally I found the files:p
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] jtOttawa:
If I helped with that link, a 'like' is always good form and appreciated...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] jtOttawa:
This is excellent work, thanks Dante63. I did find I couldn't get your ADB module to work (no doubt the solution is in the thread somewhere) - so I just downloaded the Android SDK platform tools and used ADB from there. Bought you a drink via PayPal! 👍😊
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] doro23000:
Sorry I didn't see the link I found by myself but thanks a lot for helping.

By the way in my country ,before I had to use this file Samsung unlocked this morning the app!
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] jtOttawa:
That's good news! Maybe more countries will be unlocked soon...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] jtOttawa:
I must say, it sure is nice having BP and ECG working (and BP syncing)! It's extremely frustrating waiting for Samsung to get the official approvals here in Canada (supposedly they've been working on that ever since the Watch 3 came out) - and not having to put up with that frustration is a real treat. 😊
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] razor26:
Thank you to the dev. Been using the mod since last week with my Xiaomi phone
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] howdidoo:
Hi @Dante63, am new here and signed up just to thank you for the solution you created. Although I have a doubt, I bought my Watch4 Classic in Canada last week on holiday impulse without knowing that ECG & BP isn't approved. And I live in Singapore where the local watches have these approved. I also downloaded the official Samsung Health Monitor but it doesn't recognize my watch although Wearables App does and it works well. Do I still need to download the Mod App and go through this whole process or is there easier way since Singapore has it approved and I can somehow just activate via some firmware.

(I also use Samsung S21 Ultra so phone family is not an issue)

Attaching screenshots for reference. Sorry for my long post. Not sure if I was able to explain my issue.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
The method of installing the mod is very easy and few steps shouldn't take more than 10 mins and probably less...

To use the mod, you'll need to have the mod on both watch and phone, you can't use the original with the mod
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] howdidoo:
Yes, I'm not worried about the mod. Just trying to understand if I need this or is there any other official way to turn these features ON since my country (Singapore) has the ECG/BP function officially approved. I just made error of buying the device in Canada where it is not approved.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
No, there is a way to change csc except lte but someone got stuck on the selected csc and can't change it back or receive ota, so not sure if it's safe and still there are no firmwares to install, I recommend waiting for firmwares to be released
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] howdidoo:
Understood.. Although it would be nice to know if someone managed to change firmware successfully
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
It will happen once official firmwares are released
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] saspipi:
Hi! Thanks for you work @Dante63!

Do I have to install mod on watch 4 if my country is approved (I just don't have Samsung phone) or is it enough to install mod on mobile phone?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
Yes, the mod works with mod only
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] antonkulaga:
As there was no Linux tutorial, I installed with Bugjaeger Mobile. However, after running mod on my watch and your modded Samsung Health Monitor on my phone (as I am OnePlus user I have no other choice), the latest complains that my watch is released in a country (Romania) where the feature is not approved. As in the header you mention that your mod gets rid of country restrictions I am puzzled why I have them :_(
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
Are you sure you opened the right SHM?

Could you share a screenshot of what you installed?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] antonkulaga:
@Dante63 as you may notice on screenshots above it is 1.1.1.157.wearos.dante63 version. I used the data from the google drive you provided ( https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/138thPYPMbZIp2Us0Unx_h-SqJQEDxZ-0?usp=sharing ).
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
Open the mod on your watch4 and your phone will recognize the watch4
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] antonkulaga:
@Dante63

I did it multiple times before writing my post and it never worked (reboots of the watch and phone also did not help). Here is the version I am running on the watch to make it clear for you
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
Watch is connected via Bluetooth?

This is a very odd case, how about open app on the phone through the watch shm
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] cmccarter:
Dumbguy time. I can go thru all the steps up to the install I then get an error: device not found waiting for device which never happens. everything worked perfectly up to that point. anyone have any idea what i am doing wrong. I have adb debugging over wifi turned on as well as adb debugging. blue tooth is turned off.

I have dane a hard reset and started from there but same error
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] cmccarter:
OK reset watch again. uninstalled then reinstalled wear OS on phone. deleted original shm from watch installed modded SHM on phone went thru complete procedure of installing modded shm on watch and everything is perfect til i try to install the apk

C:\adb>adb -s 192.168.1.167 install watchSHM.apk

error: device not found

- waiting for device -

the modded app on the phone says "no compatible watch found"

have i missed something?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
Did adb connect execute correctly?

I mean you're struggling with ip at installation step but didn't struggle when connecting?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] aamadorj:
I just installed your SHM Mod on a new Watch 4 40 mm without issues, @Dante63, and it's working perfectly with your SHM Mod on the phone, which is not a Samsung.

Thanks a lot.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] jtOttawa:
Yeah, I read that error as you're not connected to the watch. Also, where did you get that file name for the .apk? That's not the file name in Google Drive...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] cmccarter:
adb seems to be working fine untio i try the install command

C:\adb>adb -s 192.168.1.167 install watchSHM.apk

here's my install attempt:

=========================================

C:\Users\Chestor McCarter>cd\adb

C:\adb>adb kill-server

C:\adb>adb start-server

* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *

* daemon started successfully *

C:\adb>adb connect 192.168.1.234

connected to 192.168.1.234:5555

C:\adb>adb -s 192.168.1.234 install watchSHM.apk

error: device not found

- waiting for device -

======================================

as for the name I just renamed from the original name to be shorter. can try downloding the original again and using that name
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] jtOttawa:
Try typing the adb.exe devices command after you connect to see what you get - that is, to make sure your watch shows up as a connected device.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] cmccarter:
C:\adb>adb devices

List of devices attached

of course the last octet keeps changing after every reset so pay that no attention
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] canadoc01:
The permissions are off and greyed out can't turn them on Samsung health monitor app
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] cmccarter:
may have found issue.....had to use the port number in the ipaddress of the install shows success

all appears to be working... just another ID10T issue. I worked over 20 yrs in IT and should have known that
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] jtOttawa:
Interesting. Obviously, you want to make sure (and no doubt you already have) to turn on 'adb debugging' and 'adb debugging over wifi' on your watch. Also, when I tried to connect to my watch - even with those two turned on - I ran into the connection issue shown in this video at the 11:50 mark, whereby I had to authorize the connection on the watch:
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] jtOttawa:
Haha! Great! I was going to mention that too although I had read it wasn't necessary with the '5555' default port...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] jtOttawa:
I ran into this issue too - I think I solved it by force stopping SHM on the phone again, and closing and re-opening the mod on the watch - something like that. Oh, and don't forget to clear the SHM cache.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] jtOttawa:
BTW, are others finding that they need to unlock the watch again after running BP? Anyone know if this is a bug, or a feature?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
Many reported it, and I think it's suppose to be a security feature so no one sees your results and it is possible to remove the lock but I'll do it when I get my watch4 god knows when Samsung will bring the watch officially locally already lol

Ps. Thanks for answering and helping, I was literally hitting the add to quotes to answer everything, got everything correct 👍🏻
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] jtOttawa:
Thanks Dante63! And it's my pleasure - although I don't know how much help I am, as I don't really know what I'm doing... 🤣😉
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] victor64:
I keep getting can't find file. I've tried moving it to C also program files that adb is running on. I tried the phone method didn't show up on the watch, and free program only lets you use it once to transfer a file. I'd pay but don't want to give the cash if it's not going to work. I type Watch4.SHM.MOD.1.1.0.175.APK I do have both healths on the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] jtOttawa:
Put all the files you need in the same folder (preferably at C:\ for simplicity, but it doesn't have to be there - for example, if you're using the ADP platform suite of tools, put them in that folder). And don't type the file names, copy and paste them to avoid errors. And what do you mean the 'free program only allows you to move it once'? What 'free program'?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] SpasilliumNexus:
adb -s <IP> install <EXACT location of APK (Example: C:\Users\*Name*\Downloads\WatchAPK.apk)>
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] victor64:
Thanks for helping out the old guy! Got it on my watch, the app I was referring to was bugyaeger the app for moving the file from the phone to the watch I tried it last night.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] jtOttawa:
Anytime - although I haven't used Bugyaeger - and I'm not sure I see the point of it if you're using the PC anyway? Have you tried again? Where are you in the process now?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] ajp558:
Thanks Dante63. Installation worked perfectly first time and I now have BP & ECG working on Watch 4 Classic, and synchronising perfectly with Samsung Health on a Huawei Mate 20X. I'm very happy and glad to make a donation.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] victor64:
Thanks again it's working I calibrated it and unfortunately it's been a little high even with my meds. I'll check the calibration and use it for a while before I call my doctor, this was 1 of the main reasons I bought the phone. I used the phone last night that's why I tried the app way.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] lassetth:
I get this message ip "xxx.xxx.xx.xx unauthorized"

when I trie to send the apk file.

My watch is locked with pin code, opend before I try to send the apk file.

Solved!
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
I have created a bat file that has all ADB commands with the ADB tool,

all you need to do is type the IP address of the watch and drag and drop what you want to install...

You'll find it inside the Drive with the name "READ ME - ADB Auto instructions",

Old READ ME folder has been changed into "READ ME - ADB Manual instructions"

Hopefully next posts would be supporting languages...

Stay tuned,

Languages coming soon are: Hindi, Punjabi, Japanese & Malay...

Other languages are being proofread (Indonesian, Arabic, Persian, Slovak, Turkish)

Hello @Dante63 ,

First of all, thank you for all your work!!!

I have doing all the steps and everything goes well, but I have an issue when I try to perform firmware update via wifi, any of two latest updates are available on my watch, I am still on BUI5 version, do you know if can be something regarding this procedure?

Thank you in advance.
