SOLVED

First of all thanks for you support and reply @Dante63

I don't know exactly why is that stopped working but with the following "method" I could solve the synchronization problem. I think that was totally independent of your amazing apps, but I share my experience, hopefully, that could be helpful for others.

So these were my steps:

1. Watch factory reset

2. Delete the following apps AND before it, their data (I don't know is necessary but I don't trust in Android :D ): SMH, Galaxy Watch 4 Manager, Galaxy Wearable

3. Delete the Watch from paired devices on PHONE

4. Start the set-up of the WATCH and after the language selection, search it and pair it with the PHONE.

The following 3 steps' order is extremely important, otherwise, you will get the "That device isn't supported.." etc error message.

5. on PHONE: install Galaxy Watch 4 Manager, Galaxy Wearable, SMH

6. go to Samsung Health ---> Accessories ---> Find new devices ---> Select your watch, OR just select it from the device list.

7. go to Galaxy Wearable and let it go through the set-up method.

8. delete official and install modded SMH on your Watch according to @Dante63 description (I did it manually)

9. Enjoy.

Not magic, but I played some hours to go through all of the permutated order opportunities till I finally found the right one.

Hopefully, that could be helpful for others. :)

Have a nice day guys

After installing this (using the .bat file) on my S21 and GW4 (country mismatch meant I couldn't use the native apps), I seem to have lost access to contactless payments in Google Pay (says my phone is rooted, which it isn't). Not trying to start a witch hunt but I can't think of anything else that has changed in the last week, has anyone else experienced this? I've since uninstalled the app, re-installed google play services etc., but it's still not working.

FWIW, it still works fine on the watch!
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] rroyy:
Works for me. Thank you op.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] uvitor:
Dante63, thank you very much for your work. I'm coming here just to thank you. I got the watch 2 days ago and immediately installed your mod, worked flawlessly.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Geoffxx:
This is probably a stupid question

Is there any need to have the original SHM on my phone or can I just uninstall it or never install it (Sony Phone) and just install the modded version
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] tiho5:
Just install the modded version. It will anyway "overwrite" and replace the stock version.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Geoffxx:
Thought I would update and share my experience

Got the watch today, I have an Experia 1 III

I had already installed the modded apk on my phone and uninstalled the official SH Samsung app which I did not need to install in the first place as I found out - anyway I removed it

So I unpacked the watch and connected to my Phone and let the watch connect and update to the latest firmware etc which all went great

so far so good

so I have my phone with the modded SH app

all the updates installed on the watch as of yesterday, just let it run and do it's stuff

So now I have a fully updated watch and connected to my sony - all good

Next I did the ADB update to the watch using the Batch file provided which all went perfectly

All of this took about 30mins

Result

absolutely everything is working perfectly and I even have the O2 sensor which might be because my watch has HK formware

so many thanks to D'man that has spent many hours making this possible, I would not have bought this watch unless I could have all these features ....................Samsung take note

I have 2x Fossil watches Gen 5 that I have been using for the last 3 years, they were great but this Samsung 4 is just in another legue

I started off tonight with 50% battery and 7hrs later still had 20% (I didn't have time to charge it)

I guess technology moves on, it is very impressive with all the features this watch provideds

I hear some reviews talking about battery life not being great - well having smart watches for the last 7 years - this so far blows everything clean out of the water, my gen 5 fossil was ok and I generally charge everyday anyway but I was very surprised just how long this watch lasted tonight

Thanks all ................just sharing
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] CelesteD:
Thank you for your work. I have not been able to get the ecg or bp to work for me. Went through the setup loading the apps to the phone and watch and got to the set features. However it didn't let the app work. US based, Galaxy Watch 4 just purchased, LG G8 phone. Here is where it got stuck. Any way out? Thank you.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] ceferdous:
How can I download this?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] DADER:
Unfortunately I had the same issue but to solve it I had to forget the watch from phones's BT devices then clear all the watch related apps data which will reset the watch upon reconnecting to phone to get it working...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] x2wolf:
Hi Dader,

I did try the same steps what you mentioned. But still i am getting the same error mentioning No Compatible what found.

I am using S22 Ultra. Any idea what can be done next to fix ?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
He should uninstall the original and install the shm mod because:

1. It can't overwrite original due to having a different package name so both will exist on the phone...

2. It can't overwrite even if it had same package name, signature mismatch...

Clear cache of the shm mod app on your phone, restart both phone and watch and try again, I recommend opening BP on your watch and shm mod app on the phone to allow them recognize each other

From the Google drive link on the thread?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
Instead of posting of a very unnecessary comment that has no use, why don't you right click the bat file and open it with notepad to see what is inside, it's written in English, and pretty much it's the manual adb, instead of you typing, you just press one key...

It's very sad for me to see when some people post a comment without exploring, checking and investigating a bit...

and everything in this thread has nothing to do in anything you're talking about...

My best guess is you have installed a blacklisted app which says rooted (devs are lazy or maybe they don't want to tell you which app is responsible) and you having issues with your phone might be a bad messed up boot that corrupted the Android DB, kinda very rare thing to happen, I'd suggest a backup and reset the phone, I do recommend flashing latest stock OS image to fix whatever damaged files on the phone as sometimes reset doesn't do much if the system and other partitions are damaged, reset will only clear and rebuild data partition...

If you have other "concerns", please use whatever tool you want on the files I worked hours on to find the answers you need...

This MOD is being used since December 2020 and this is XDA community, everything is checked...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] x2wolf:
Hi Dante,

Thanks for the feedback. I tried the below steps:

1. Clearing the cache & data for SMH, Wearable, Wearable manager, Samsung Health App.

2. Resetting the watch & Removing the Bluetooth setting from phone.

3. Setup the watch again using Wearable app.

4. Install the SHM MOD on Watch.

5. Open the SHM app on the Phone & Watch .

And it started to work. Thanks a lot buddy for all your efforts :)
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] 73sydney:
Having used @Dante63 's mod for ages, and especially having a lot of experience with Google Pay (given i have a module for it - which most people shouldnt need anymore btw), i feel confident in telling you nothing in @Dante63 's mod will NOT have had any effect on Google Pay on your phone. Theres also the fact i have had it all working fine since Watch 4 came out without issue.

As i always tell people in the Google Pay threads, better than 97% of all Google Pay issues are resolved by doing this:

Clear Play Store & Play Store Services Data & Check Play Store Certification

Toggle Airplane Mode on

Clear data and cache of:

Google Play

Google Play Services

Google Pay (note: may/will remove any cards previously entered)

Usually this will be achieved by (exact steps and terminology may change per device or ROM):

Opening Settings

Going to Apps, choosing Show All Apps

Enabling Show System Apps via a menu option

Locating the app, tapping it and then finding Storage/Cache

Tapping Clear Data

Reboot

Toggle Airplane Mode off

Open Google Play Store, wait 5 minutes, go to Settings and check Certification at bottom, it may take some time for "Certified" to appear, but as long as its not "Not Certified", and just showing version info, you are good to go

You can also check the most recent advice i gave someone as for what else to check here. Note that number 4 in the things to check (1, 5 and 6) is the above post...

If you have further Google Pay issues, post in the linked thread and you'll get more help than here, as its off topic here
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Jelly4000:
Thank you for the reply, I'd like to apologise for how my first comment came across. It wasn't my intention to insult you, simply a lack of knowledge and a hope that someone might be able to help - which you have. I'm very grateful to people who make these kinds of things, which I know didn't come over previously. I didn't think that there was anything malicious about the MOD, but I've seen stranger things happen before with no ill intention (and probably user error!).

I've not gone as far as a full reset yet, but if 73sydney's suggestion doesn't work that's my next step. Thanks again.

Thank you too, that's really helpful! I tried something similar when I first encountered the problem, but again almost definitely due to user error, a) it didn't work and b) I wasn't able to connect my watch until I repeated the process of reinstalling play services twice, which wasn't much fun. I'll follow the steps listed and if no dice have a look at the thread.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] 73sydney:
Worth pointing out you'll save time clearing data on an app over reinstalling it, it will do the same thing without removing the app
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] p51d007:
Amazing how easy this was...AFTER I read the DIRECTIONS. I wasn't aware I had to install SHM on the WATCH because mine already had the app on the watch. But, AFTER READING THE DIRECTIONS, using the auto ADB bat file...BOOM! Works perfect!
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] edwaine:
Thank you for this! I was able to do it right on my S22 Ultra after I discovered that it has this kind of functions out of the box but is disabled due to certain country certification restrictions. Which is kind of a bummer. Good thing both my Phone and Watch doesn't have any original app of it installed so I was able to skip it right away and straight to installing the mod.

For those new to this you just need to:

1. Know ADB installation & ADB commands

2. Able to install APK on the Phone

3. Read all the instructions and ask for clarification if needed

4. Or just watch the tutorial

Edit: I've also just enabled sync so thanks again.

I hope you can also create a region-less mod Galaxy Store App & Good Lock App.

I've always been a ADB/Root guy depending on PC for everything but with Bugjaeger things are just fast and easy doing this type of stuff.

[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] edwaine:
Yeah I am fully aware of this and even purchased the paid one. What I am trying to ask for at least a modded one that doesn't check for region
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] uicnren:
Ummm thats exactly what NiceLock is, region free GoodLock.

NICELOCK

Good Lock 2019 Launcher

What is NiceLock?

This app is only an alternative to main Good Lock app for the regions that it is officially unavailable.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
I already worked on it before and got stuck a bit, it's a bit hectic because of many hidden checks, aside from being obscured...

It needs someone who has enough time to explore everything till it works...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] edwaine:
I'm willing to test it let me know if you want me to check the modded app
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] TalRash:
I am having issues after decompiling it. I added the .wgt but it gives me an error saying that the compiling has failed.

I have followed every step. I am stuck on this one.

Please help. @Dante63

Thank you in advance
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
Wrong thread, this is WearOS (Watch4 and newer only), kindly move your comment to the Tizen thread and explain more and I'll try my best to help

Edit: the path is very long, I stated many times, keep things on C drive, long paths break any program..

I am not able to install the APK on the watch. I am getting a Read/Write error from both the PC and S22 Phone adb installer.

And from your error, it could be:

Are you extracting or modifying the apk...?

Certificate failure is caused by file being tampered with or corrupted, it has no signature...

[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Freon949:
Good catch, let me try it on a different computer.

I gave you the standard MD5

And you gave me SHA1, so here is the correct SHA1:

[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Freon949:
Yep, grabbed the wrong hash, though it was wrong either way.

So I tried it on another computer and - SUCCESS!! - thank you!

My guess is my Antivirus or something was corrupting the file.

Anyway, Thank you for all the work and time you put into this and thank you for your support!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
Yes, some anti-virus has the capability of extracting archives and repacking it, apk in a way is an archive and can be extracted, this breaks its signature...

Glad it worked for you
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] danw_oz:
I have the same issue as mentioned here in a few posts. I followed everything to the letter from Videos and text files, all the latest apps, zips and text files 23/03.

After completion I could not get the watch to connect to the phone again so had to fully reset it and set it all up again.

I have a pixel 6 pro phone March update, and the SHM phone app 1.1.1.191 for me will not select the slider to allow all permissions just get the lovely samsung spinning blue and green dots.

Let me know if there is anything else I can provide
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
Not sure which problem you are referring to from few posts ago...

Not sure what you mean about the slider (unless you're talking about Samsung Health sync, then there is a section for that)...

Not sure what you mean by unable to connect to your watch, i mean, you installed the phone and watch shm mods so surely you were connected...

I might take a guess and say you connected through Bluetooth instead of galaxy wearable 🤷🏻‍♂️
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] ROfficerBR2019:
Hey friends,

My watch no long connects to my phone anymore. It was working fine with my Huawei phone until early today, but now when I go to galaxy wearable app on the phone it says my w4 is not compatible.

What should I do?

Thanks in advance for any help
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
Did you by any chance, accidentally connect to your watch through Bluetooth settings...?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] ROfficerBR2019:
Maybe.. but i dont remember.

What should i do now???
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] danw_oz:
Where people are no longer able to connect to the watch at all from the phone, and had to reset watch delete bluetooth from phone, and set it all up again from scratch.

Doesn't galaxy wearable use bluetooth for connectivity? becuase if I disable bluetooth on the phone the watch disconnects in Galaxy wearable application.

I will see if I can find the specific information you refer to for Health Sync, and see if it differs to what I did.

Update so they say if you do the same thing multiple times then the result will be the same. Well this was not the case for me following the instructions again now the health sync is working and was able to get all the check boxes, not just one as previously shown
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Icetea:
@Dante63

First of all, I have to say thanks for your great mod!

I tried to install the mod to the watch using the bugjaeger app and this way works easy as expected. I have used a hotspot of my smartphone for it because this works without to be connected to a computer or wlan router.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
Reset the watch, because when you connect through Bluetooth, you override galaxy wearable connectivity and the pairing key changes, galaxy wearable no longer recognizes the watch...

Galaxy wearable uses bluetooth, yes but it adds more than just a simple pairing keys...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] ROfficerBR2019:
Thanks! I´m gonna try that. After the reset i must install the mod again, right?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Icetea:
yeep! because the old version was deleted during the factory reset.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Gary02468:
I'm trying to install the SHM mod on my new Watch4. I've enabled ADB Debugging and Debug Over WiFi. When I adb connect to the watch, adb says "connected <IP>", but I do not get an Allow Debugging? request on the watch, and "adb devices" lists the watch's IP but says "unauthorized". Did I miss a step somewhere?

EDIT: Solved--I had to run adb from an administrator account on my PC (Windows 11).

Need help for some reason I can't get notifications on my watch from my Huawei phone even though its connected to the wearable app and notifications are on

I don't think so, it has to be reset

Restart the watch and phone, make sure the watch isn't loose when worn, notifications per app are active...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] sbc1:
Didn't work mate still not getting WhatsApp notifications etc
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
Check battery settings, whitelist the plugin and galaxy wearable, it is possible that they're being killed
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] sbc1:
On the phone or watch
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] sbc1:
On the phone galaxy health is 1% and wearable is nothing as it's not running
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
Phone, battery managers tend to put apps and services to sleep as "optimization and power saving" which lead to killing some functionality, I know this for OnePlus user, his watch kept disconnecting because galaxy wearable and the plugin were both being killed by the battery manager till he whitelist them
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] sbc1:
Was working before I started all this ha, should I reset the watch don't really know if I'm bothered about blood pressure and ecg
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] sbc1:
It's working now for some reason but my ecg/blood pressure isn't showing in samsung health ha think they've got a mind of their own
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
There is a section for enabling Samsung Health sync, it's very short and simple steps
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] sbc1:
Yeah I've done that but it's not showing even though its enabled
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
Not showing what exactly...? Setfeatures are enabled and configured to DEV and developer mode & SHM has permissions...?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] sbc1:
The results in samsung health

So Setfeatures are enabled and configured to DEV and developer mode & SHM has permissions...?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] HaPeWe:
Is there no longer a version for light mode of the phone-app available?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
Something wrong you're facing in darkmode...? The app is following system default, so if you have darkmode enabled on your phone, it will follow that, if you switch to light mode, the app will switch to that
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] danw_oz:
It is all working now after the second attempt, the phone SHM behaved as it should the second time following the procedure
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] HaPeWe:
The previous version had a "DARKMODE"-APK and an APK without this addition. I liked the normal version though with the ..191 I only found a "DARKMODE"-APK, hence the question. I'm guessing your answer means that now there is only a DARKMODE version.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Dante63:
The previous version has both yes, because initially it was only light mode and I patched it to follow system mode (dark or light)

And from now and onwards, I patch it all once instead of doing it twice till I have time to add a mode selection to set a certain mode, light, dark and system, right now, it's system
