Get ecg , bp and samsung pay - Samsung Galaxy Watch

I just got my watch active 2 in india.
But it lacks features such as ecg , bp and samsung pay .
I was searching and found out that i can install 2 apps ( one of which is samsung health monitor and other one is tpk )
And get them both working.
But i couldnt find how to enable samsung pay..
Please help , i am new to all this coming from apple ecosystem.

Take a look at instruction on the forum and changing CSC to USA or Korean

I have active 2 and I am using it in india. Somehow all my attempts have failed in installing the bp app. Can you explain how you got it to work for your watch
Much thanks in advance

1. If you don't have Samsung Health Monitor (SHM) present on your watch as default app, you can get ECG and BP working with Indian CSC without any system modification simply by installing 3 apks (modified SHM, ECG and BP).
2. However, if you have SHM already installed as a system app on your watch (from Samsung firmware), then you can only get ECG working with the modified SHM apk and the ECG tpk method. The system app won't allow the BP to work (it's locked out by Samsung). You now have 2 options:
A. Use the alternate method detailed by @Dante63 in his thread (involves seting up a java environment on your PC, and using Tizen studio to sign your own apps)
OR
B. Change CSC on your watch to mimic a watch bought in countries where SPay, BP, ECG etc are officially unlocked by Samsung.
I've used the method in B and Changed CSC to ZTO (Brazil) and everything is working fine in India (I live in Chennai)
All this is much easier if you have a Samsung phone, but still do-able with other brand phones.
This thread by @Dante63 has all the information you need for getting ECG and BP working without modifying CSC: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-restriction-removed-11th-april-2021.4202685/
For changing CSC, follow the instructions in TechnoProz's video on YouTube:
You can choose to buy combination firmware and stock firmware files from the internet, or use files uploaded by @adfree and @Nmc_alves® on this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/firmware-r820-r830.4161883/
Just make sure to double and triple check your watch model number, and your firmware and Tizen version carefully before proceeding because a bad flash can potentially ruin your day and although recoverable, it's a pain to get USB Odin working on a watch.

I will also add that if you want Samsung Pay to work, and you do not have a Samsung Phone, running stock ROM, you will need:
Install Magisk (root/superuser access)
And then will need to:
check you pass SafetyNet (you might want this to test, as currently the inbuilt test in Magisk Manager is not working: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.scottyab.safetynet.sample ) Passing SafetyNet can very much be down to the ROM, so you may need to seek help from the ROM thread of the ROM youre using
enable MagiskHide under Magisk Manager Settings
enable MagiskHide for ALL Samsung related packages (Gear/Samsung/Watch Plugins)
enable Hide The Magisk App (call it anything but anything with Magisk in it)
reboot
then try adding card to Samsung Pay
If Samsung Pay even sniffs root you will NOT get Samsung Pay working - as it writes to a database somewhere and you will have to erase data for the Gear/Samsung/Watch Plugin apps and reset the Watch to start over
Im in the middle of doing a write up on how to keep the watch and Samsung Pay working across ROM flashes....i wont throw that on you in this post
p.s. Welcome to Freedom, from being stuck in the Apple cult. You've made it!

Looking forward to your write-up. Sounds very intriguing and I'd love to hear more about it. It's amazing to see how large corporations like Samsung employ sneaky traps to stop people from modifying their phones and how someone determined enough can figure out ingenious ways to bypass all that It's a perennial cat and mouse game that I quite enjoy.
Looking forward to your thread.

While i can maintain the watch connection and Samsung Pay across ROM's (it is just re-using the same Android ID and magisk.db (that stores the magiskhidden packages)), there doesnt seem any way (currently) to maintain BP calibration data ....so i do have to recalibrate that every time
I dont enjoy the cat and mouse at 50

For better or worse, heres a link to my "keeping your watch connection and Samsung Pay working across ROMs" guide:
Keeping Watch Connection And Samsung Pay Across ROMs
This is currently how i keep my Galaxy Active 2 working - connected and Samsung Pay working - across ROM flashes without having to reset it every time, because resetting sucks Please note: At time of writing theres no known way to keep BP...

At present when i am trying to follow dante's instructions to install 3 apps.. i get to do it successfully for shm and ecg but i get failed to install message for bp monitor app. Any clue why? I tried 3 apps from different sources multiple times.

Can you please describe what you're doing a little more clearly? Tizen 5.5.2.2 can mean one of many firmwares - DUA3, DUA7, DUD1. Which one are you running?
The SHM app you're installing - is it the phone app or the Watch companion app?
Are you trying to install ECG and BP standalone apps along with the SHM app for the watch? You don't need all three - either install the first 2 or the 3rd one (it has ECG and BP built in)
When I was on DUA3 firmware, I only installed 2 apps:
1. Modified SHM app for the phone (v189)
2. SHM companion app for the watch
This got both ECG and BP working.
After that I have changed CSC to get these apps natively and am on DUD1 firmware, so I'm unable to test for you if Samsung has done something to disable BP in the newer firmware.

I can confirm everything works, i made my Indian active 2 ( R825F ) working all things, lte works with JIO, samsung pay started working ecg and BP working with couple of apks, neither of them were working before here in my country India except the LTE, wow it was soo easy, just get that easy firmware membership and you can follow techno Proz youtube video, such a relief.

Hello I just bought Galaxy watch and I believe it was manufactured in Saudi arabia. I'm missing some apps such as spotify and galaxy app of my phone is in arabic and I can't seem to change that.
Is there a way for me to switch the region of my watch to something like USA so that I could install Spotify. and I know this isn't related but how do I change the region on Galaxy Wearable ? when I acess galaxy apps from it everything is in arabic which is really annoying.
Thank you !

Are you able to identify your exact Watch Model Name?
Example...
SM-R800 or SM-R810 or SM-R815F or...
Best Regards

Model: SM-R800
Serial No : R5AKA0NGARA
Tizen version: 4.0.0.1
Software version R800XXU1BRJ4
and it's the 46mm version
I hope that's helpfull

You can change to XAR, this is the CSC/Sales Code for USA...
With Tool SDB...

This is not temporary... this is static...
To Reset to "default" you have to know your CSC/Sales Code... and go the same way to choose it...
So I suggest first... identify your active CSC...
Code:
launch_app csc-manager.csc-[B]verifier[/B]
Then NEXT step to change...
Best Regards

Thank you so much. Last couple of questions. excuse my noob tech skills :silly:
but will this void my warranty ( as far as I understand I can switch back csc to what it was and they won't notice I changed that). and will I still get future updates or is this process is similar to rooting on android phones
again.. I'm noob at this

excuse my noob tech skills

NO problem.
Please remember thes tiny hints...
A
I am User... not Samsung Seller nor in any other kind married with Samsung...
B
What ever you see CSC/Sales Code related... is "against" Samsung policy/rules crap...
Otherwise they would give you official instruction.
C
CSC/Sales Code aka region lock/crap Branding Warranty Tales...
Serial Number detects Original Factory CSC...
This is why they ask you about Serial Number...
D
OWN RISK
What ever I say/write...
and if you fail...
You can never say... but adfree told...
Please choose wisely...
Or ask Samsung and/or your Seller...
Best Regards

Some dude, did you need to change your Samsung account region to the United States as well?

Hi There: Is this procedure still possible - I`m from Germany and we over here can`t use Samsung pay - will it be possible to use S pay after changing the region ???
AND what will happen with the sim card - will it still be in Germany - silly question...

How can I know which region my watch is set on? I'm from Mexico and I can not use samsung pay, the model of my watch is SM-R800. regards

Only as hint...

hi guys sorry i have a concern, maybe it is also the wrong place to post this question / file, I am the owner of the galaxy watch active 2 with the latest US 5.5 update
when I install the classic ecg via sdb the icon appears for a moment and then disappears, on the various telegram groups this tpk has been posted in which it is stated that it works but I am doubtful about its origin, can you kindly check this file? thank you so much.
I don't have the tools to be able to analyze this .tpk files so I rely on you, and be aware that it could do damage to your smarthwatch

What kind of phone do you have?
This only works on Samsung devices

After trying ALL manual and futher investigation I found that on SM-R830 there are already installed tpk with id com.samsung.health.samd.bp, and it is system one.
It is not possible to remove it without root. And it prevents from install blood presure app and samsung health monitor. Both have the same id [com.samsung.health.samd.bp].
So there are two possible ways to fix that:
1. Change firmware to remove them (both ecg and bp apps present in CSC file with the same id com.samsung.health.samd.bp (probably it is bug)
2. Somehow get root and remove app from watch
Any idea how to do that? Did any one have expirience to change firmware?
P.S. also I see that there are no such apps on older firmwares, will try on them to solve the problem

I have only Root for CTI4 Firmware Version both:
SM-R820
AND
SM-R830
CTJ5 not leaked yet... so harder to modify rootfs.img...

Hello all,
I hope you are all good in those times.
I am kindly asking for help to make Samsung Pay work on my SGW R-810
I`ve tried some decisions (some from here some from else) to change country, but it seems not working for me.
Could some one be so kind to point me thread with tested/working guide ( for newbie) how to make Samsung pay work on my watch.
SM-R810
One UI Watch version
2.0
Tizen version
5.5.0.2
Software version
R810XXU1GUJ3
Knox
2.5.0

Answering to myself:
Based on this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/galaxy-watch-sm-r810-flash-for-samsung-pay.4233587/
I`ve used this tutorial: https://www.phonandroid.com/forum/t...firmware-stock-sur-votre-galaxy-watch.203922/
After that i did the following from this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/samsung-pay-galaxy-watch-not-visible.3877498/#post-79537852
I make my watch Italy country - ITV
And yes it works.
If you are with different phone than Samsung (like me i am with Xiaomi) you have to manually install Samsung Pay (watch Plug-in) https://m.apkpure.com/samsung-pay-w...android.samsungpay.gear/download?from=details
The only problem is that i am not able to load any card cuz Samsung Pay does not recognize my banks (I am from Bulgaria) tested cards are DSK OTP , Revolut and Skrill card none of them works
If any one know fix on this any advice is appreciated.

Hello everyone, for some time I have been looking for an answer to the question related to the removal of Root Magisk from my Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Exynos [SM-N975F | d2s] because I would like to go back to the original software that runs Secure Folder, Samsung Health, etc ... I tried to do it according to this guide: Link but after restarting and flash the phone shows information that it was previously Rooted.
On Friday I called the samsung hotline where I got the number to the nearest service center, by calling the service I found out that they can fix it but I will have to bear the costs.
I am asking for a hint because I don't have the strength to look for it anymore, maybe I'm doing something wrong?
I install and root my phone witch this tutroial: Link

The root is hardware fused. there is no getting back to stock. You can look up some software that can mask the previous root to start Health and some other apps, secure folder will never work again but there is a alternative.
Sorry M8

Not sure about android 11+ but on 9 i have root and secure folder working.....never tried health though. I think i remember 10 was able to get secure folder working, I'd guess 11 does or will, but can't say for sure.
This might help to get health app working
