Having trouble syncing gear 2 steps to s health - Samsung Gear 2 Neo

I programmed the gear to sync data every 3 hours, but it doesnt work. Even if i press "sync now" it doesnt take the data from the watch. It seems as if the phone and watch each calculate my steps in their own way and never talk to each other... Anybody know why? Honestly, I'd stop the phone from counting my steps because its inacurate as it sits on a counter for most of the day, the watch is always on me so i know i can trust its data.

It does not sync with s-heath, at least the original version on your note, instead you should download Fitness with Gear app from Samsung store. Everything will be fine.

What note? I have an S5

I just found the source of my problem. In the step counter on S-Health, i had to touch the 3 dots and select data from device for the phone to use my gears data.

What version of S Health does the new S5 have as it seems older phones like the Note 3 are currently limited to an older version that doesn't have the same level of integration with the new Gear 2 devices?

Here's the one on my Note 3

Look on the forum, the s5 apk is avalable for sideloading
Sent from my SM-G900W8 using Tapatalk

i work for samsung. again if you have other phones including the note 3 they work great with fitness with gear and sync perfect. if you side load s-health and the health services app you will have trouble with both apps. s-health works with kitkat only properly as it was explained to me. if you have side loaded s-health and health services delete them and use fitness for gear as they have almost the same function and it works perfect on my note 3 and has most of if not all of the functionality of s-health

Samsung dude you need to suggest a web or pc interface where the data is useful and importable to other apps

i agree totally

Still bugs in Fitness With Gear app: can't change Miles to Kilometers on Pedometer screen and Last Update time on that screen is listed in UTC rather than local time. Also, no data is reported on Sleep Monitor screen for hourly reporting.

I'm not sure fitness app works with s5, i dont see it in playstore, samsung apps, and i even tried to sideload it but the install fails

GN3 isn't connecting to Gear after gear manager update

Okay, so I'm running X-note (on the latest RED Saber Kernel) on my (Canadian Variant) SM-N900W8 and my Gear worked just fine, until about 10 mins ago when the Samsung App store told me there was an update, I updated and now it's saying my phone is not compatible with the Gear... which is impossible....
Attached is a screen shot of the message I get when I open up Gear Manager to connect my watch.
Does anyone else have this problem???

I got this same message after I completed the update. I reset the gear and still got this same message. Finally I uninstalled Gear Manager and redownloaded a full install of the updated Gear manager. This worked.
I think the new gear manager is comoatible with devices on 4.3 not too sure... I have a GS4 and could access the app but with the new update it shows the same pop up msg... Revert back to the previous version...

There is another thread, where is same message mentioned, look for "cannot connect rooted devices" or so. Anyway, can I ask you about battery life on Note III with Gear connected? I using X-Note too with stock kernel and its very poor. And I have prevous version of Gear Manager.

What version of gear manager are you referring to? I'm running 1.4 on 4.3 (PACman which is AOSP, CM, Paranoid Android). I have a few issues both nothing major. Pairing was tricky but it worked once I figured out the dependencies and tricks.

Correct. Also no Weather or SVoice. I'm guessing that they are relying on resources from their own framework.
As much as I like this thing, I think I'm going to have to return it out of principle. They're trying to drive sales of specific devices with this approach and that's an Apple thing to do; not in the spirit of Android and I don't want the device enough to allow that kind of behavior. Anyway, this will likely just prompt a competing company to release an even better piece of hardware that won't pull such a stunt with the software and I'd rather put my resources there.
Same for me using x-note firmware

I dont see the need for a Gear 2. A software update could fix most if not all of the current gears downfalls. The hardware is spot on.

They have to do something better with the battery life as well as charging the thing. They couldn't put a port in the watch itself to charge it?

Saw this today but I thought it wasn't as feature rich as our gear so I didn't play around with it as much. And I just grabbed the brochure. After reading it when I got back to the hotel, it's actually a pretty Damn good alternative to the gear. And it's water resistant. When I played with it I saw it had an option to reply to text and a keyboard came up. But I was in a rush. I will probably go back tomorrow and take some pictures and video. Also check out the pricing.

Questions for Note 3 Owners

When you guys were on the Note 2 before updating to the Note 3 (or any Galaxy device), how long did it take for the update(s) to come out where you would get the UI from the Galaxy S device? For example, the phone, web browser, texting UI, etc updated for the Note 2 and it looks similar to the S4. Like I understand it's hard to explain, but I was wondering when will our Note 3's look like the S5's TW ui?
The answer is maybe never. Think about it you buy a device with one look learn it then they force a whole new look on you. This would outrage probably most novice users.

There's a way to get the s5 look on the note 3. I currently use it now.

Can I get this without rooting or voiding my warranty? I hate Knox, but I don't want to trip it and I rather keep my warranty intact. I rooted my old Note on Verizon, but then unrooted it later and it's warranty is unvoided, but I rather not root alltogether and keep it clean.

I hoping it fixes the random disconnects. Never happened until the last FW update, then I got one every other day and it was pretty tiresome. Also never tracked it down but I keep randomly seeing something about host stopped working as well as "cannot install app to the Gear" when turning on the phone after being off or something of that nature.

I'm in the United States and have the Gear 2. I don't even see the US listed as an option on sammobile.
Seems to be improved user interface, havnt seen any difference yet, and S-Health performance, that i also have yet to see any difference in.

I can see it but still can't access the clocks in my gear manager after installing it. I am going back to d8. I downloaded the dd firmware for the UK and it gave me a fitness manager app. S health works now and syncs. But I started having an issue where my phone answers automatically or disconnects whenever I get a call while connected to my gear 2 neo. Also there is no us update for the dd firmware. I have searched high and low, but the knowledge and support for the gear 2 is very limited. Too many issues being reported out the box. My assumption is people who are rooted or using custom roms are having the most trouble. Good luck early adopters.
Thank you for the heads up. I'll wait

Camera controller missing - any downloadable apk?

Hi,
I have 2 galaxy watch 3 devices (my wife and me), one paired with note9 the other one with A50.
I've noticed that the one paired with A50 does not have "camera controller" app (the one included free - Samsung app) and it cannot be found in galaxy store.
Ive tried another app (partly free) in store and it works with A50, so I don't understand where is the problem, because my watch has the app and I'm able to find it in store.
Anyway, how could I get the app from my watch (paired with note9) to send it to my wife's watch?
Both watches are LTE, same model SM-R845F.
Or maybe there is any "repository" where I could download the camera controller app?
Thank you

Install the apk on the phone that you want the watch to have the camera controller...
Thank you for your effort an sorry for late reply,
Unfortunately it gives the message to update the firmware on my note9, and I do not want to update as I do not want to loose the call recording capabilities.
Found a third party app in galaxy store that is working, even the free version, One Camera.

Fair enough and call recording is a CSC line feature, unless you're saying your note 9 is not rooted...
installed but didn't worked for me ... can't find de app after that and also i don't have a samsung phone...that should be the reason why ....

THX for your effort. But doesn't work on galaxy S8 (stock no-root) android 9 (I think). Just says to update the phone's system software... Maybe it is looking for android 10 and up? Maybe it is possible to just let it look for android 8 and up on the phone instead?

Sadly, tpks/wgts are unmoddable, the things you can change are limited, and shm mainly depended on the phone app, hence it was easier to play with
I have the S22 ultra, and the Watch 5 pro, and this app doesn't work, and I can't install it from the official store, it says my watch is not compatible lol.
