I was told that the gear S2 is not compatible with the Tab S2, has anyone tested it, and can confirm this is true.
Update.
I have tested this and can confirm it does not work, not sure of the reason behind it.
That's odd... my gear live works just fine with it... I'm curious though why you would want it synced to your tablet and not your phone though?
I have Galaxy Tab S2 LTE and it's not compatible. Main issue is the Gear Manager app cannot load.

I have the international Galaxy Tab S2 (SM-T815) with voice capability, and it really irritates me that the Gear S2 is incompatible with it. It would be nice to use the watch and tablet together, instead of needing a phone simply to install Gear Manager. I suppose you can sideload the Gear Manager apk on the tablet, but it's inconvenient.

Side upload is not possible, it won't detect the watch, I have tried it at the samsung shop.
I had a S4 mini at that time with android 4.2 which you need 4.3 and above to work, thats why I tried to pair it with the tablet (Tab S2 SM-T715), now I have a V10 which should work, just waiting for the rose gold version of the classic, since the 3G version isn't available in my country.
Hello I have a Verizon tab s2 I sure no root at all. I have the gear s2 would love to get gear app to work. I can't edit buildprop.. maybe someone working on the gear app it self to help with this or am I out of luck......thanks
Yep Gear Manager - typical Samsung stupidity.
Now it's possible with samsung flow

Just need to change the device fingerprint, it should be fine.
MagiskHide Props Config v4.0.2 <-- Use that, switch your device to something that is compatible, install the required app. You may have to wipe cache / data to the play store, first.

For all owners of Smart TV 2014 and Galaxy Note Edge like me.
You can not install Smart View 2.0 on Play Store, because "This app is compatible with some of your devices."
I extracted the apk file from my Galaxy S5 and test it on the Galaxy Note Edge. It work's great!!!
The apk file is 46MB, so i can not attached it, but...
Here is a link to Smart View 2.0 apk for you...
https://www.dropbox.com/s/kg9szaz7712pk15/Smart View 2.0_1.0.17.apk?dl=0

Thanks a lot! It's working on my Edge and the galaxy Tab 4 as well.
Great...
I am happy that it works!
Smart view 2.0 on note edge
Funny thing is i was able to DL this 2.0 app on my edge from Google play a few weeks ago. - had no incompatabilty issues, Long story short i had to replace my edge from a camera issue(did not focus), then when i went to reinstall this app, it said it was not compatible, does anyone have any thoughts on this. It worked perfect before! Thanks for sharing , i will install it.:good:
I have no idea why, but in google play store i have a "not compatable" massege and can't install it. I was happy that still have the S5 to extract the app file

Google Play works fine
Just downloaded and installed the app from Play Store, no issue, .
Same issue here with my s6 edge. Beginning to think that I was crazy until I found this thread. Purchased a s6 and install the smart view app no issue then got a replacement now app not compatible on this device.
Android 6.0.1
On android 6.0.1 it doesn't work. I need it, please best app on my phone. Can you fit it to new android, PLEASEE
Thanks a lot! It's working on my Edge
I got the brand new T Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge and love using it. I figured out that S Beam option is not available in the device to beam photos or videos. I found out that S Beam app is
listed out in the Apps section under Application Manager --> Applications --> All.
So I think S Beam app is shipped along with the device but for some reason it was not installed or enabled. I would like to know why it was not installed on the device. Is there any way to install S Beam app. BTW, my device is not rooted.

Hi there, unfortunatly the cool S-beam Feature found on previous galaxy devices was not developed for the Galaxy S6 nor the S6 edge.
the S-beam feature was sacrificed in order to to launch the new Samsung feature of wireless charging . it is still a great phone though with many other awesome features and hope you will enjoy it.

I had no idea where you get the information that S-Beam is sacrificed for the wireless charging. I personally thinks that wireless charging has nothing to do with S-Beam whatsoever (S4 and S5 can still have S-Beam even after using the special case for wireless charging).
S-Beam is working in S6, just differently (you can find "S Beam" in the Application Manager). Try beaming photos/videos from another Samsung device, and you'll notice the File Transfer is very fast. However the problem lies with sending from S6. For some reason Samsung limits this feature to just receiving files. If anyone finds out how to access the S-Beam feature and enabling it for sending as well please share.
Edit: Wireless Charging is not a "new" feature. Samsung just decided to include it in the phone since it doesn't have removeable battery anymore = no more removable back cover.
Hey,
So the new update for the gear VR killed Note7 support, telling users to return their devices ASAP.
I plan on doing that but when my replacement phone comes in. I literally have no phone until then. So for now, how can we continue to use the gear VR? I only got a few days out of it and it was pretty fun to use.
you can't
You can still use your Gear VR with Galaxy S7 and Note 5 models. Your purchased Oculus apps and games stays with your account and not bound to the device. You need to download those again to your new Samsung device though.
Use an older version of the Gear VR app?
The Oculus app will work just fine if you change ro.build.model to SM-G935F (the model number of the international S7 Edge) in /system/build.prop and restart. This obviously requires root access and might cause some issues with other apps (but it's very unlikely since the Note 7 is almost identical to the S7 Edge hardware wise).
Edit: I also changed ro.product.device and ro.build.product to herolte (the codename for the S7 Edge), ro.product.name to heroltexx and ro.build.flavor to heroltexx-user, so if just changing the build.model doesn't work, try changing these too.
If you really want to use the Gear VR with your Note7, Package disable everything related to Oculus/Gear VR. That way when the devices are connected it wont launch Oculus. Then install other VR apps from the playstore, some have their own content, lets you play your own personal videos etc. Launch your preferred app, connect the devices, and do whatever you gotta do.
Side buttons doesnt seem to work, but you can make selections on screen by hovering your curser over icons.
Disabling Gear VR will disable ability use Samsung VR...
use an older oculus variant? Somenone can name the version that work last time with note 7? I may be able to find the right one if you can name the version or date n7 was blocked.

From the endgadget video you can see the samsung notes is still there...
But I wonder if there has been any tip if it has been improved or if it has recovered some features from the s-note app.
Maybe they will say something else during the the note 9 presentation.
i'm wondering this too. in the app drawer for the Tab S4, i saw Samsung Notes, but who knows what they've done with it. call me old fashioned, but the S-Note app on my now dead 10.1 2014 was already pretty much perfect for what i needed.
also seems like Sammy is really flogging the Book Keyboard + DEX experience, so that makes me wonder if they are hyping typed notes apps, especially since MS Word is pre-installed?
hope i'm wrong.
Actually didn't think MS Word was pre-installed as I thought for devices under 10" it was free, but anything over there had to be a license to run it. MS said this a while back maybe something has changed.
Anyways when typing something I can see them pushing the Keyboard aspect more since the keyboard can take up a good chunk of the screen. I'd be curious if you can still do note taking by just writing it on the screen with the Pen. Also saying that curious if the pen is similar or the same to the one that is coming with the Note 9? Doubt it, but it would be nice to have that function.

The samsung notes app is still there and you can install s-note app from the play store (whose last update is around last year note 8 release), which is still one of the best options for note taking (both in android and ios). However, samsung seems more focused in selling a stylus which can do tricks than in improving (or at least maintaining the original quality) the note taking process.

This guy gets it
Well actually, if you go to user reviews for the samsung notes and s-note apps you read always the same: "Bring back the old functionality".
Apparently, S-note app is not compatible with the tab S4. I tried to install it from the PC play store and says it is not compatible with the tab s4 but it is with my note 8. Such a shame, I really miss the one on my note 10.1 2014 too.
I successfully installed S Note. I downloaded the apk here:

If you go into the Samsung Store, you will find the majority of updates for the Samsung Notes app there. For some strange reason, Samsung doesn't post the updates for the Samsung Notes app on Google Play.
I sideloaded Samsung Notes 3.0 that you can get from APKmirror.
New design and a few new features.

Use my apk mirror link to get 3.0.
The S3 got a lot of bad publicity because some of the available apps for the watch could only be installed if the wearer's watch was paired to a Samsung smartphone. Is this the same with the Galaxy Watch? I am seriously thinking of getting this watch but lack of access to the available apps could be a deal breaker for me.
You can install apps from Galaxy Apps in a Samsung smartphone, but you can download them also directly from the watch, even if you are not connected to the phone with Bluetooth.
The bad thing is that when you download an app from the watch, you cannot see the screenshots or detailed information, and I think paid apps are not shown.
So basically you can download free apps from the watch, but the functionalities are very limited (I don't know if Galaxy Apps store can be accessed through the Galaxy Wearable app in non-Samsung smartphones)
Thanks for the insight. I've read a lot about this lately. I bought an old Samsung Galaxy S5 on EBay for €30. I hope to initially pair the watch to this phone, install all the apps I want. A lot of users say that you can then backup the watch to your Samsung account, unpair from the Samsung Phone, repair to another Android device and then restore the backup. I hope this actually works.
You can access Galaxy Apps from the Galaxy Wearable. There is a link in the Settings. Works on my SONY Xperia XZ Premium.
I have no problem accessing Galaxy App Store on Lenovo P2
I have been researching on other forums and it seems that some apps on the galaxy app store will only be shown if the connected phone is from Samsung. The Here We Go app is apparently not availabel for non-Samsung phones.

That is not true. I have 'Here WeGo' on my watch - and my phone is a SONY XZ Premium.
- and the app 'Here WeGo' (on the watch) got an update the other day.

I think it might be regional issue. For example I'm not able to find Samsung Internet Browser or Speedo On apps. Although, I'm not even sure it the latter is available for Galaxy Watch. If someone has that could you send it for me.

From Speedo FAQ: The Samsung Gear Fit2 Pro and Samsung Gear Sport are compatible with Speedo On. Other Samsung watches are not compatible due to lower water resistancy.

I know the FAQ but I have read from Reddit that someone has installed the app for Galaxy Watch in Canada. But I'm not sure if that is correct info. Also Samsung is advertising Speedo On for Galaxy Watch on their webpage.

without connecting to a mobile device.

I use this app on my phone and I have the map downloaded, which is over 1gb. Can I use the watch to navigate with this map, instead of using my phones data?
