Good Evening everyone.
How is it possible to do this?
Thanks.
Can you more explain?
From Firmware files?
Or you wish to attach or connect your Galaxy Watch device with Computer... and dump... """backup""" something?
Best Regards
Is there root yet I'm new to this sdb I've done developer mode sdb connected to watch it's confusing on xda so many watch names lol
I'm confused at what you are asking, if you are looking to make custom watch faces there is a software for that in order to do it. If you are looking to backup, the only current way I know of this is using a Samsung Account and having that control your app and file backups for the watch. As for installing third-party apks, first you need to enable unknown sources in the watch settings and then you can adb push the apk through cmd prompts to wifi upload it or use an app like Apps2fire to push the app to the watch through wifi, but will have to use a file manager on the watch to install it that way and it doesn't require a pc. Hope I was able to at least answer one of your questions.
Good info! Your saying use adb from pc... right? What file manager u recommend?
why use extra app set up sdb_home path in environment variables so you can use anywhere on pc I use power shell windows 10 not the best but I can easily turn Bluetooth off contact to same wifi as PC use sdb connect iport to root send files pull files learn it's harder to understand Amazon app on watch

I found this playing with watch tapping open source in settings doing the dial codes under hidden menu youll get this fast I did this will help https://developer.tizen.org/development/tizen-studio/web-tools/running-and-testing-your-app/sdb

I put the platform tools 28.1 extracted over the adb in c:/ also downloaded sdb command tools to same place set environment so powershell will run easier to drag app location if I can help just ask I'll do the same

Not specifically to backup, but only to extract the applications (.wgt) or the watch faces of the Galaxy Watch.
watch faces has a thread very easy to do go to your watch find about watch in settings find open source license click it and it tells you basic setup to sdb pull file if that's what you mean

Is this method possible for galaxy watch? And can you explain how to push apk thru apps2fire app
I have gear sport with a certain app on it that for some reason when restoring a backup from it to my new galaxy watch that app doesn't install.
The store now shows it as a pay app which it was free when i got on my sport. Trying to figure a way to export it from my sport to my galaxy watch. Is there a method?

You could try pulling the .tpk through SDB on the gear sport, then installing it to the Galaxy Watch through SDB
after signing it.

Is there anywhere that I can read how to do what you mentioned. I tried to pull what I thought was the app and I got some file but I was not able to install it onto my device and it did not have a tpk name to it.
how can I figure out which file to Paul via ADB from my gear Sport and how would I sign it and install it onto my Galaxy watch. Links to any tutorials or anybody providing instructions would be greatly appreciated.

I'm sorry I'm posting so late to this thread but with the Galaxy Watch 5 pro coming out I'm considering switching to it from my Galaxy Watch 3. As other users have mentioned, I would like to transfer my tizen based watch faces to Wear OS. These have all been downloaded from the Galaxy Play Store. A user, ecmompton59, mentioned a thread that told how to do this but I don't know where to find it. Any help would be *greatly* appreciated. Thanks!

Hello guys I need small help, what is the best file manager application for mac? o wanna transfer music videos and pics between GN and iMac

You don't need a file manager per se...
This is the app you use to connect your GN to an OSX machine to transfer files. Google created this for the specific reason of interfacing with android devices that use MTP and not UMS.

You can also transfer over WiFi with an FTP setup. But this is easier.

Lol he doesn't need all that. If he just wants to move pics/music/vid/files back and forth, simple download from Google. Done.
And another thing on that post, I don't see how having to connect your phone via USB to sync with 'Mail', 'Address Book', iCal, iPhoto and iTunes is more seamless than simply letting everything backup wirelessly and automatically with Google services. You're making it harder on yourself by relying on your computers built-in apps. You don't buy an Android phone so that you can go back to the 2007 iPhone strategy and start plugging your phone into the computer every night to sync. That post is basically showing you how to step back from all the great things Android does.

Anyone know of a root explorer type app for OSX that will let me view the system of the phone?

I'm trying to figure out how to remove a specific watch face. Uninstalling the app won't work in this case because it's the wearfaces app, and there are some faces I don't like that came pre-installed with the app.
Does anyone know if there's a location on the phone? If not, how do I access the internal storage of the 360 so I can manually delete faces??
No one know the answer to this? I'm guessing the only way is to adb in thru BT, but I was hoping there was an easier way, like some trick within root explorer, but I haven't figured out a way. =/

I've been wondering the exact same thing. I've written to the developer several times and have not gotten a response.
I also want to get rid of some of those faces from wear faces.com. I don't see any specific identifiable way to delete this and it's driving me nuts!!
If you uninstall wearfaces it should uninstall those r.kelly faces too, I didn't like wearfaces TBH
Try Facer and search reddit, or just search the play store for "watch face", much more enjoyable way of changing faces than wearface IMO
Where can I get the Watchmaker companion app? It doesn't show up on the galaxy store and the actual Watchmaker app says I need a companion app in order to send faces to my watch. Does anyone know how to fix this? Or if you can upload the companion apk, that would be amazing.
Phone:
Samsung Galaxy S7 (SM-G930T)
Android 7.0 Nougat
Watch:
Samsung Galaxy Watch (SM-R810) 42mm

The only solution is "Download watchmaker companion watchface on watch http://apps.samsung.com/gear/appDetail.as?appId=slide.watchFrenzy" but that doesn't work for me. I was hoping for a direct apk if possible (the companion app is free as far as I know, I just don't know how to get it installed through galaxy app).
Update: Never mind, another forum post says it'll cost $3USD for the companion app. I don't mind paying that except I don't have the option to find it. I already have the paid Watchmaker app from Google Play, finding the Samsung companion is difficult.
For some odd reason, WatchMaker isn't available in some countries. You could try one of the free VPN's and see if that works.

Has anybody ever found a solution to this? In my country, the Galaxy app store only shows free apps and the watchmaker companion app is only available for payment through the Galaxy store. I have tried VPNs, registering the Galaxy store in the US but nothing works. I am ready to purchase the companion app but it is not available anywhere. I cannot use the watchmaker app on my Galaxy watch3 without it.
If anyone is still struggling with this the companion apk is available inside the phone apk under res/raw/android_wear_micro_apk.apk then you can adb install it over WiFi.

I would be very grateful if you could share the file.
With which app I could get into folder on watch with installed watch faces to copy face to PC?
I would like to edit one of the faces as I saw one guy on the forum did. I couldn't get to him for details how he did it.
Maybe someone has a clue?
Is it maybe possible to catch face on the phone during installation from Galaxy store? I tried to check gear app folder while installing but nothing appeared there.
got Active 2 and have got watch faces onto it, if i delete the ones which i have paid for or used coupons to download them,
If i delete them form my watch or phone will they be deleted completely or will stay in my galaxy store.
I am trying to do the BP buy it says delete some of the application as not enough memory.
Any way to work around this
many thanks

If you look under receipt's the faces you purchased should be there.
Thanks for the information , I'm using note 10 plus
Just checked and they are there.
1)Will the free watch faces be there as well.
2) what's the best way to delete a watch face from the watch or your phone.
3) how many watch faces should you keep max on your watch to be safe with memory.
4) can you use Google pay on the watch and if yes how.
