Installed fine on my.. I did get an unknown sources error because it seems iheartradio comes with iheartradio for the gear smartwatch and I guess it tries to sideload that maybe... otherwise, it installs fine.
Thanks for the feedback. I wonder what's so unique about my setup. I do have the Samsung gear neo 2. So maybe there's something conflicting going on. Android wear vs tizen.

Yea, I have a Gear 1. I think it's trying to sideload the Gear app, but Android isnt letting it.
I went back and checked "unknown sources" and reinstalled it, now I have an iheart radio app on my watch..
I Am Having the Same Problem
Verizon Galaxy Note 4 with Samsung Gears app installed for Gear S watch. IHeartRadio fails to install after getting an error associated with the Samsung Gear app. I have changed security settings to allow unknown sources both in the Samsung Gear app and the general settings on the phone. No luck. Still fails.
I wrote to IHeartRadio technical support over the weekend and received this prompt reply:
I apologize for the difficulty you are experiencing with iHeartRadio. There is currently a known issue with iHeartRadio disappearing or failing to install when connected to a Samsung Gear device. We are working to resolve this issue.
However, you can still enjoy iHeartRadio with your Samsung Gear not connected to your mobile device! I know that this is not the most optimal solution, but we appreciate your patience while we work on resolving this.
So let's keep an eye out for an update to IHeartRadio.
I have the iheartradio app installed from the play store without any issues. Installed fine and works fine.
Not sure whats up with yours.
Good luck

Do you have the Samsung Gear app running on your phone and a Samsung Gear S watch connected via bluetooth? If not, your situation is irrelevant to this issue.
Im getting the same issue, and it started aftet connecting my gear 2 neo. Very strange and i hope they fix this soon.

Possible Solution
A poster on another board came up with a solution which I do no take credit for, but share here for the benefit of all.
After the Gear S software "uninstalls" IHeartRadio, leave the Gear S watch connected. Then go into the Samsung Gear S manager on the phone, select "Settings" (scroll down to he bottom), then select "Security". Uncheck the option to allow applications to be installed from other sources. Back out of the menus and then go to the Play Store.
Install IHeartRadio from the Play Store. When you receive the dialog that IHeartRadio will NOT be installed on the Gear S, select "CANCEL". Do not select "OK".
The install of IHeartRadio should complete without attempting to side load on the Gear S. Just leave the "install from other sources" option off until you need it.
I have encountered a similar problem with TripIt being uninstalled by the Gear S manager. Here, the solution is to simply install the TripIt app from the Galaxy Gear store (preloaded on the phone) instead of the Play Store. This version from Galaxy Gear appears to play nice with the Samsung Gear S manager.
Good luck!!
As was posted earlier this is a known issue which we're working with Samsung to resolve. Our next release should address this issue but there is a workaround which you can try (same as was posted above) if you'd prefer not to wait (with the caveat that we're not responsible for any issues that might arise from this workaround).
Pair your mobile to your Samsung Galaxy Gear or Gear 2
In the Samsung Gear app on your phone, visit Settings > Security > Unknown Sources
Install iHeartRadio
When the unknown sources message is displayed, select CANCEL

ok tried that it still failed...it will install the app then clean master says its safe to open then you get a message from gear manager that says failed to install the app.
now i tried to side load the app still failed if its recent but if you install from amazon app store it works fine but no gear application.
if you turn bluetooth off and install iheart from the play store it will work just fine even play music but soon as the neo connects
the iheart app fails to install to the gear watch and then removes the app again.
i even tried to go to the samsung app store to get iheart but its not in that store at all.

From what I've seen this happens on some devices, you can always try installing from the Amazon App Store (it's an earlier build of iHeartRadio for Android).
We have fixed this in our latest build, I just don't have a date yet for when we'll be publishing it to the Google Play Store. It'll be soon though!
rp is not good, Mine is fine

Yesterday I had some apps that had new updates on the play store, so I started to update them.
I started seeing one wouldn't go through because it was giving "Package file invalid". So I tried over WiFi and same issue.
Got home and looked at my two tablets (Nexus 7-2012 and asus tf101) and they were having similar issues with updates, but different apps. I was also even getting download error #497. Sometimes just trying over and over again would work but now it seems like some apps just wont go due to the errors.
I tried clearing the cache/data of play store and download manager as google suggests, but that did not help. I've tried to use google's contact us form but I type this lengthy description of my issue and it tells me that I need to type more... (probably a glitch in their contact us form...) So I cant get something sent to them.
My girlfriend just got the S4 for sprint yesterday and now she is having the same issue, some apps wont download due to invalid package.
Is anyone else having this issue? Any suggestions on what can be done? Anyone think this is a issue on google's end?
Also, of my devices only the tf101 is rooted at the moment. Had some issues where I had to do factory restore on my GS4 and haven't rooted it again yet, and nexus 7 I kept reverted back to stock to get official 4.3
If they're system apps use a root explorer and delete them and install them again (if they're available on the playstore) if they're not then install them delete data and cache and remove your account and launch playstore and sign in and it should fix it... Remember if u delete an app with a root explorer you have ti reboot for it to take effect... And also fix permissions...

ive also been having errors with this. im on revolt 8/6 build and using PA gaps. but i have also tried with normal gaps, and get the same. its funny because it only happens with certain apps, and the apps that have the error change everytime i flash a different gaps. And yes, it even happens on newly installed apps.
Though to fix, i just turn off wifi and use data, its inconvenient but its a workaround until the actual problem is identified

I dont think that will work because if it happening across multiple devices with and without root then I'm thinking it's a issue on Google's end. Plus my phone is not rooted anymore.

go to play store, open menu go to settings and there is an option for auto update. I believe the default is to update over wifi only.
I was reading something earlier tonight (after having problems with 10.2 unofficial and getting error 497 with every file I tried to download) that Google was having problems with a few different ISP's and the Play store connections. Some people with the Nexus 7 (2013) were getting this error straight out of the box. Updates sometimes worked via Mobile network, but WiFi would fail with an error code or say package invalid every time.

Yeah, I just saw some articles on it finally. Sounds like everyone is reporting the same issue no matter what version of play store etc.
Use a VPN. Apps that refuse to update on my Wi-Fi network seem to update or download successfully if I use something like Hideman or Hideninja. I've not had problems with either. I can't vouch for their security, but Play Store reviews seem mostly positive for each. I use Hideninja VPN because it's free without time restrictions whereas with Hideman, you're limited to 5 hours each week and the shortest length of time you can activate is a 1 hour block.

I had read about using a VPN over the weekend, just needed to find a app to use. Hideninja did the trick and my apps all updated finally.
The hardest part was trying to download hideninja... it wouldn't download on my phone haha but luckily I have helium on all my devices and its set up with my google drive so it thankfully downloaded on another device.
Edit: Problem solved itself over time.
Hello everyone.
Like mentioned in the title the tablet only shows apps under my Apps in the Play Store, I downloaded or updated manually in the Play Store. It also doesn't show preinstalled Apps like Chrome,Gmaps or YouTube in the Application manager, unless I looked them up and manually update them in the Play Store. I had exactly the same problem yesterday with an Samsung Galaxy Trend (GT-S7560), but after some messing around and several restarts the apps suddenly showed up and everything worked fine then. Sadly I don't know what fixed it on the phone. Does anybody have an idea how to fix this problem? It isn't a huge problem, but with all the Android devices I set up, I never encountered this except with these two Samsung devices.
Many Thanks in advance!

Sorry forgot to mention that I already tried it, sadly, without success. It was one of the last things I did before it worked on the phone, didn't worked on the tablet yet.
What play store version do you have?
Sent from my GT-P6210 using Tapatalk
The problem solved itself again! Just as I went to look up the Play Store version (4.5.10 btw.), the apps appeared under the "All" category and in the Application manager, could update them and everything works fine now. Really strange that this occurred with two Samsung devices on two following days. Thanks anyway for your help!
Nice!!

How the Netflix app running, smooth?
Netflix runs great on mine. Depending on your connection. If I use my phone for connection and in Sprint spark territory I receive HD content. Same for home network.
Yes Netflix is gorgeous on the 10.5. Give it about 30 seconds or so for the HD movie to buffer and it looks incredible.
The Netflix and youtube apps have been optimized by Samsung for this device. They look spectacular. It's third party video apps that suffer with extreme Pixelation and ghosting in dark scenes. Such as Crackle, Cable Provider Apps and other streaming services.
Mine doesn't even let me activate it, I mean, I'm just entering the app for the first time, when I enter my Email and password is telling me that the device can't be activated, I called Netflix and the only thing they told me was to uninstall it and reinstall it and when I told them that this one came pre-installed that I can't uninstall it just turn it off, he didn't even know what to tell me.
They are telling me to contact Samsung, so go figure...

Please call Netflix and/or Samsung so they know that this isn't an isolated problem and worth together to fix it.
I called Samsung and basically told me to reset to factory, I asked them if they guarantee me that doing that will fix my issue and they couldn't, so I told them that I wasn't in the mood of just wasting hours that took me to set this today just to see if that fixes it and if at least they have a reliable backup solution where I could simply reset and restore I'd do it, but not with the joke they call Kies, and that I have had all their Galaxies s, both Gears and now the Tab S, so I do like them but must admit that their backup solution is a joke and is a shame that they seem to not care about do something at least like LG has.
I called back Netflix and this time they were asking and escalating the call and in waiting for a call back.
Just for curiosity and trying to cover all the bases, are you on the Continental US? I live in Puerto Rico and I'm just wondering if this could be some Region issue.
Just to let you know that after trying all day at the office where I'm the System Manager so I have full online access as usual with all my previous and actual android devices, and after talking to Samsung and Netflix guys I just cane home and guess what, I could activate Netflix without a hiccup, so what can be different with this Netflix app on this Tablet that is the first device that I couldn't activate the Netflix app but everything else was working perfectly, even more, I used the OEM browser and Chrome and went to Netflix and login from there and saw everything perfectly, so the proviene was always the Netflix App.
Let me wait for Netflix call as they haven't call yet and see what they think after I explain this to them.
The Netflix app has worked flawlessly for me from day 1.
Netflix worked for me right from the get go and it was one of the first things I tried when I got my 8.4".
The picture looks great, I'm not even sure what the highest resolution one can stream using Netflix.
I was able to get it working as well. I went into the application manager and uninstalled the update. Then, let it reupdate from the Google Play store and it worked fine.

They never called me yesterday, but after trying at home and worked I'm sure they just re-adjusted something on their end, that's the only explanation why suddenly it worked after not working for a full day, I'm assuming that they just changed something and let me try it again by myself instead of call me, that can explain why yours is working now also. I did what you are mentioning here about 5 times and nothing worked before, so if now is working then maybe something was changed after my couple of calls.

Netflix streams 4k video now, breaking bad, and ghostbusters I know for sure are 4k. I don't know if it will convert or look better though on the Samsung tab S? Let me know if you notice any difference?
I picked up the 8.4 S yesterday and I think it's clear that this is the best device for Netflix I have ever used. I checked out both the 8.4 and the 10.5 at the dealer and felt that the 8.4 was superior due to the pixel density giving it a sharper look.
To some extent I didn't feel the 10.5 was any better than the Note 10.1 2014 and I have always felt that video was a bit blurry on the larger screens. The display density on the 8.4 is just perfect and Netflix and Youtube are impressive.
I got the 10.5. 32Gb. Love it. No problem seeing up Netflix. When I started the the stock Netflix app it requested an update. After that it run smoothly.

I noticed some of you said that Netflix was already installed. For some reason mine wasn't.
I wonder why?
As I thought there was an exclusive Netflix app for the tab s. If I download Netflix from play store is it the same app?
Also for those that have the Netflix app pre installed is it not deletable then?
Mine came with Netflix pre installed. I can't delete it, only uninstall the updates.

Yes, but only issue is in going to settings
Hey. ..I have the AT&T Note 4 paired with the Galaxy Gear 2 and so far, everything seems OK except when I click on settings in the Gear Manager. When I do that, the app force closes.
I am getting the same thing. Force close when clicking on settings.
How odd, you would think Galaxy and Gear should go perfect together... my moto 360 paired right up, but it uses motorola's connect app instead of gear manager
I uninstalled and re-installed the app today. All is working well now.

Crap. Sorry. I.ment to post about that. Yes if you uninstall and reinstall it works again
I am currently on an HTC 10 running the latest version of LeeDroid, rooted. Ever since I flashed the new ROM, my Gear S2 Classic was unable to connect, but I left it like that as it still showed the time. After getting frustrated with not receiving notifications, I reset the watch and uninstalled everything related to the Gear off of my phone (Samsung Accessory Service, Gear S Manager, Gear S Plugin) and reinstalled everything. I attempted to connect to my watch for setup afterward, but every single time it prompts me to connect to my watch, the app crashes and the whole process has to restart. I can confirm that the watch can connect to my Note 5. Is this an issue with root?
Since a couple of the gear app updates the download of the depending software failes.
I was also on leedroid but I have had to rollback to stock to make everything work properly with my S3 frontier. Sh.. t happens. I rooted my device by myself
I had this info from Lee directly.
So we aspect the hTC N update next week... Hopefully.

Hello, i use the Gear S App with the Gear S Plugin App from the Playstore with my HTC 10 and my Gear S3 Classic works fine with them..
So i will think, its a Problem with the Rom.
Did all Services for the Gear S App was installed, or was they removed by the Dev?
Nice Greets
Custom roms have a problem with the Samsung gear S plugin. Maybe it's because they are all deodexed? The only rom working for me is the nougat port for Verizon from santod040
Sent from my HTC6545LVW using Tapatalk
Anyone figure this out?
I read somewhere on another forum that the issue is some rom ID or device ID. Samsung Gear App or Plugin reads this ID and depending on the ID does this or that (checking if the device supports "something" - can't now remember what). Problem is that custom ROMs have IDs which this app doesn't recognize and gets into a piece of code which crashes. There was a patch to be applied to the Samsung App or Plugin to ignore the ID check which made it work OK, but it was a patching process one would have to repeat each time a new version of the app comes up.
