Will it work with the S3 watch and Android pay? - Xiaomi Mi MIX Questions & Answers

I looked over compatibility at Samsung.com, however i also know that the phones listed there are not all the phones able to connect to the watch. Anyone who has tried using it with a Gear S3?
And anyone who can confirm whether this phone will work with Android Pay as well?
Thanks a million,

Can't speak for the s3 watch but my Pebble Time Steel works perfectly with it.

Yes, S3 works perfectly, no issues with Android Pay and I'm rooted.

Where are you using it? What ROM are you using. I have tried the stable ROM that came with it and now a beta ROM 6.11.10. Both have had issues connecting to Samsung app store. And cant get Samsung pay

Has anyone been able to get the samsung app store to work on this phone? I'm able to get my gear s3 working properly but I can't download any new apps or watch faces and thus can't use samsung pay. Gear store seems like an empty shell with no apps populating in it. I'm on 6.11.10 rooted.

Same issue with the S2. The Gear Apps just shows a blank screen. Tried deleting data, reinstalling, factory reset of watch etc with no luck. I am able to log in to my Samsung account and watch works fine otherwise.
This is frustrating as it's stopping me getting the S3. I am on latest EU rom.

I was on EU 6.11.10 and now on 6.12.8. I used Samsung Gear to install Samsung Pay but unable to get Samsung App store to load properly.

Can I ask how you managed to get Android Pay to work?
I'm not rooted but get an error message about the handset not being secure - I get something similar with AmEx Pay (in the UK AmEx have created their own app rather than use Android Pay).
Any insight you can offer would be appreciated.

I didn't do anything special, I'm on EU 6.12.8, rooted and installed Android Pay normally from the Play Store.

If you're rooted, you must have taken additional steps to make it work, regardless of the model of handset you're using - but doubly so with the Mi Mix, which is a handset with no official Google Services support and that throws up errors on un-rooted handsets.

I guess if you want to call it an extra step, I installed the EU rom version for Mi Mix from xiaomi.eu, TWRP rc2, dm-verify and SuperSu.

So, at last, the Mi Mix has a serious problem with the GEAR S3 and the last MIUI.EU.
The GEAR Manager does not open the App Store for downloading Watch Faces and other additional applications. Once you have done the Samsung Login when you enter in the Store appears a white Page.
Any idea to solve this annoying problem?

I'm having the same problem myself still.

I am also having this problem. Just wondering if anyone has managed to find a solution to this or been able to side load watchfacesand apps through a third party app or other method.

The strange thing is that on the Mix after a reset and removing the root the SamsungApp worked for a couple of days and then disappear again.

Gear Manager finally doesn't require Touchwiz!!!

Hi all,
Samsung have finally released a version of Gear Manager that doesn't require Touchwiz to be installed.
Version is 2.2.15100741N is out and even shows up on the Google Play Store. Installs fine on a Nexus 6 with 6.0 and a Oneplus One running 5.1.1
At the moment it only works with the Gear S2, but i wonder if Samsung will release a version compatible with our watch??
If not, do you think this version could be modified to work with our old watch???
Not showing on my google play.

The same here, Galaxy Gear 1
I see it on my play store but that's for the new S2 watch. I would update to it to see if it works with my Gear 1 but it was already a pain in the ass getting it to work correctly with my LG G3, and I don't wanna screw it up lol

Yeah everything works. Have to sideload apps because samsung app store doesn't work. Also, svoice doesn't work either.

i'm not sure how safe this rooting app is, its the first i've heard of it, but that post gives me a little hope. i checked the firmware build number and it does match.
is anyone willing to give it a try and use some root required apps to verify it works?

hey, thanks for trying, i just got my tablet today,...suprisingly, native hotspot works without any limitations or extra apps (i still have UDP), but i would like root so i can enable all apps to be multiwindow! i use in the car with waze for navigation split screened with my podcast/media player app. waze isn't enabled for multiwindow, and neither are some of my other apps i use on a daily basis. overall though, i am impressed with the tablet, except the frame is plastic-y, wish it had some kind of metal frame instead but still nice. "upgrading" from note pro 12.2 verizon, but i think i'll still hold on to it because i have it working the way i want, bought this new one specifically for phantom 4, until i get comfortable using it as my daily tablet.
thanks again for trying the srsroot app. guess we're still **** out of luck rooting.
i think there is an app out there that EDITS/MODIFIES an apk to enable multiwindow mode, but doesnt work with all apps, and some apps that depend on certain services or accounts and verifying don't work properly, rooting was the only easy way to enable multiwindow for everything for me.

Bought a used Note 5 today for the wife, no Google Account restore upon setup

I guess I just assumed this was always an option, it has been for all my devices. My wife's Nexus 5x took a fall today and while I wait for replacement parts I bought her a used Note 5 for temporary use. During the initial setup I was surprised it never asked to restore from a backup on Googles servers after she added her account. So now she has to go through manually and re-add all her apps.
Am I missing something, is this not always an option?
Thanks!

Older android version means older google apps installed means feature you want is not available on older gapps.

I actually was playing around with the phone and I put Google information in during the new setup and it gave me an option for both my phone and my work phone. I'm starting to think maybe my wife just didn't have a backup account set up on her phone.
Regardless, I fixed her Nexus 5x and I will be selling this phone now

Package Disabler?

Does anyone know what package disablers work with the Note 9, it's been a year a so since I was with Samsung and package disabler appears to have disappeared from the Play Store.
Can I get it somewhere else? does it work with the Note 9?
It works but it also gets removed from Play Store periodically then it gets reinstated. People who purchased it its earlier reincarnations need to purchase it again, assuming they need to reinstall, if more than 6 months have passed. Needless to say a lot people feel peeved off (and rightly so) by the developer's attitude.

I had a look around at these but then opted to try the ADB route instead. There are various threads around on what to disable and it's pretty straightforward to do. I also wonder if just disabling the app via settings is similar or good enough. Haven't found enough info so far to confirm, but have disabled some apps this way too.
Is the ADB method the same as on an LG phone? E.g. pm uninstall -k --.......

Not sure about ADB, only time I've used ADB is for flashing recovery, I wouldn't know where to start.
I've disabled everything I can manually, although there are a few not sure about, after checking the play store via chrome package disabler pro is still available but not for the Note 9, annoying because I'm pretty sure I have the Pro version.
Also somewhat unrelated, why does the software on the Note 9 have such difficulty closing down background apps? even when you explicitly selected them to not run in the background, an hour or so later it's still active and using battery. :silly:

I know this is the US Play store,but,perhaps it'll re-direct to what you need:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ospolice.packagedisablerpremium&hl=en_US
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.powermanager.batteryaddon&hl=en_US
Only thing that works for me is if you do it through adb.

I don't know. I got everythjng through mail: a download link and a code to activate the app.
Maybe try and contact them?
Just in case someone needs the full tutorial for using ADB to uninstall a system app,check this link:
https://www.xda-developers.com/uninstall-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access/
If you're not familiar with it,it's worth your while to read everything.
It's not complicated if you're used to using command prompts/ADB,however,be warned that if you delete,it's actually just hidden from the user,but,once you do this,it can't be recovered/accessed/re-installed unless you factory reset (less root access,of course).
The article/tutorial states as much,but,we're all human & at times,TLDR.......... :good:

Adhell 3 has a package disabler. It works. Google "adhell 3 reddit" and you can find links to download the APKs. Then you'll have to go to samsung developer site and generate a knox developer key to plug into your copy of adhell 3.

There is a useful program called Adhell3 which does app disabling and ad blocking. It works a treat on my unrooted Note 9. It is linked over in the Goodbye Ads forum.

Galaxy Store - "Can't use credit card. Rooting detected..."

I have Note 9 rooted with Magisk. A few days ago I realised that I can't say anything on Galaxy Store or Galaxy Themes. Does anybody have that problem and is there any solution for this? I think Galaxy Store was updated just before this started to happen but I am not sure if that's directly related to my problem.
Thanks in advance.

i acctualy added it while settuoing my galaxy watch.
although my phone is rooted, launching spay from the watch allowed me to gain access and configure samsung pay on the phone. i initially did not configure spay on the phone.
i can maybe try and replicate the steps when i switch roms.
but anyways, if you dont have a smart smart watch then i dunno.
but when you are asked to pay on the galaxy app store, cant you choose from other providers?

because i had the exact same issue with you but was able to 'fool' the phone by using the watch and launching the the spay watch plugin to enroll spay

here is what happens, phone detects root but let's me continue then i try to use spay but says phone isint supported. but since i have the paypal option then in then end i just choose that to complete the purchase. i prefer PayPal anyways.
on the watch side, if i launch paypal on it, then my card that i added earlier using the watch plugin works fine.

So you had to Magisk Hide all these apps. I will try to hide all of them. I don't think it will give me the missing option of adding Pay Pal Account but it might give me to pay with already added Credit Card.
