Just got a Samsung Galaxy Active 2 and it won't pair.. I had to manually download the galaxy wearable app from apk mirror when I went to setup my Samsung Gear Sport but that was the only hurdle. Magisk hide isn't helping, manually updated what I can tell are the plug-ins, removed everything to start fresh and still no luck. I think it sees the unlocked bootloader and that's causing this. I would hate to have to go that route to even use the watch. Any suggestions?
Edit: well crap, now my gear sport won't connect. Only difference between initial setup and now is that I'm on Android 10 and had set the sport up on 9. This sucks.
Edit 2: Got it. Samsung Accessory Service app needed to be installed. 3 apps to get it to register, new watch is working now.

I have bought the gear sport but unfortunately, I am unable to connect it with my honor pro. After installing the gear app, while I am trying to pair it with my phone, the app is asking to install gear s plugin and samsung accessory app. After installing both the app, the main gear app is crashing instantly. My smartwatch is now a fitness tracker only, can't connect with my phone get use any smart watch feature.
Any solution will be very much helpful. I have tried resetting the gear, reinstallation of all the app, clear data/cache .. nothing worked. :crying::crying:
Sorry, double post......
Hello, i've bought a tab s4 lte, i'd like to use it as a phone connecting a galaxy watch lte (i will buy in the next months), now i have a gear s3 but i don't find the galaxy wearable in the play store, i found the apk and install it; the app start but doesen't connect to my Iconx 2018 or my gear s3.

i have the same issue i think there should be a way. Also you do know Gear needs to be rested it’s only 1 profile at a time ? Also make sure you got all these APK'S installed as I’ve mange to connect to my TAB S4 But I’m still having problems it’s not fully connecting, i think i need to update the APK'S
You need 3 apps. Samsung Gear Apk, Gear S Plugin Apk, and Samsung Accessory Service Apk let me know if you have any success..
(Check your phone to complete setup) That’s where I’m stuck!
I've tried installing all the apk but with no results, i've decided to return the product......that's incredible, a samsung watch is not compatible with a smasung tablet!!
Samsung as learned the Apple's lesson
Successfully paired S3 watch to Nexus 7 tablet
Download a build.prop editor app from the Google Play store and install it
2) Change the Phone model (ro.product.model) to 'SM-N910W8' (this is the Note 4 model number) and also change the Phone Type (ro.build.characteristics) to 'phone'. Save and reboot your tablet."
I used the Nexus toolkit so this was very easy for me. Then I installed the Gear apps like N1NJATH3ORY said. I used Aptoide to search for Samsung, Galaxy, Gear, etc. and downloaded the plugins and apps. You'll need those.
Tab s6 got the same issue
Excuse me can you elaborate more on which app to change and how to change?
just got my tab s6 lte and got the same issue.
Thanks
What is the proper procedure, for changing from one Samsung watch, to another and not receiving the notification to turn on notification access for the Samsung Galaxy Wearable app?
The connected phone is a Verizon branded Samsung Galaxy Note 9 on Android 8.1
I have Gear Fit2 Pro, Gear Sport, Gear S3 and Galaxy Watch Active, with a Verizon branded Samsung Galaxy Note 9. I wear the Active or Fit2 Pro to bed for sleep tracking and the Sport to work the next day. The S3 is worn on non-work days.
When the Fit2 Pro was connected, the Galaxy Wearable app changed to an older version than when the other watches were connected.
I bought the Active so that the modern version of the app would be in use with the Active, hoping that the notification access would not be removed.
I have AUTO SWITCH turned on, in the Samsung Galaxy Wearable app. If I switch, either way, between the Gear Sport and the Gear S3, I do not receive the notification. If I switch either way, between the Gear Sport and the Fit2 Pro or Galaxy Watch Active, my phone receives the notification that turning on access to notifications is needed for the Samsung Galaxy Wearable app.
How can I prevent having to do this, in the morning and at night?
I returned a BT only version of the Galaxy Watch and replaced it with an LTE one. My old watch kept showing in the Wear app until I deleted the Bluetooth entries for it in the phone settings. You might need to delete any backups for the old watch as well in the Wear app.

I have three current watches that I switch between for different purposes. See my third paragraph in the OP.
There are no old watches to remove from Bluetooth settings, but maybe I will try to find where to delete backups. I have cleared data in the wearable app, but maybe they are in my Samsung account.
Thanks, for the idea!

Did you ever find a fix for this? I'm having the same problem. GearS3 and Active2
Right so there’s 2 parts to this, I want to know if the Samsung Galaxy Watch works with a Vivo V9. And secondly, to confirm before buying, I downloaded the Samsung Wearables app and opened it. It’s showed some options to connect to different Samsung Gear devices, but the Galaxy Watch just wasn’t on there. I even tried and downloaded all plugins, and all other related apps but none had the option to connect a Galaxy Watch. I’d appreciate if someone could help out as soon as possible. Thank you.
I have a xiaomi and watch just works perfectly, i guess it is the same on vivo.. galaxy wearable shows galaxy watch, no issues there either.
Worked on my OnePlus 7Pro and 8Pro...
Hello
There is still a problem, to use S Healt, you have to connect to a Samsung account but there is a two-step security and it only sends the code to Samsung phones!
Sorry for my English.
If someone wants to use the Samsung Gear 360 camera, they will get a non-compatible message when they want to download the app from Google Play. There is a solution to this problem. You download the app to another phone, get the .apk file. You copy it to your Z Fold 2 phone, install it and it works.
good to know i will try it out this week.
Installed the Gear App, which errored out till I discovered that I also needed to find and install the apk for the Samsung Accessory Service as well.
This allows me to connect the camera to my phone, but will not allow for any kind of live feed or access to the gallery. I CAN however still take pictures via the dropdown notification.
Anyone figured out a way to use the actual app?
