Same problem with me and joytest

I never tried but I got pair my previous Gear Fit and 2 to my OnePlus, notification work but all Samsung app can't.

Hi, you need to download the map directly from Here within the Gear S. It's 200Mb+ I can't recall...

Yes, GPS does not seem to work for Here, and this has been reported worldwide. It seems that Here worked for some early firmware version in some European countries, but later updates borked it.

I posted a thread in XDA about this and it is fairly active.


You can receive notifications, but probably can't install other Tizen apps without some manual workaround.

I just realized the charging cradle for this thing hold 300mah battery on its own. So it also can be a portable powerbank for the watch.

Can it be pair with any samsung phone, example like samsung galaxy note 3 neo or samsung galaxy alpha. Tq

I think any phone which have S Health app.

When switch to remote connection/pair it won't auto connect via Bluetooth back. Need to disconnect and reconnect.

It does, I tried it last night, purposely left the phone at home. When I reached home, it connected via bluetooth automatically.

I think it can be intermittent.

Yours 3G and WiFi active?

Yes, all connections active. It was on Bluetooth first, the it was remotely connected when I was out. When I reached home, it automatically connected to Bluetooth again.

Mine also auto reconnect back when I try it last time. Only wifi is on. I didn't use sim card.

I'm experiencing this since note 4 update few days ago. Mine auto call forwarding is enable.

Phone left inside office. Went to toilet less than 5 minutes. Gear S switch to WiFi then 3G, Auto forward calls enable successful. Then come back still in remote connection.

Hi, i just bought gear s white and successful connect to my z3, my question is how to install app to gear s such as whatsapp.. when i go to menu and click get more applications, and it mention to download by using mobile device. What does it mean. When i open gear manager, i dont find any option for get applications. Tq loved it

I kinda like the Gear S.. But is it gonna be good without any note 4 around? Or should i really grab note 4 to pair with it?

Hi it won't fully pair without a Samsung phone.

You also can't install any IM apps like Whatsapp, but you can install "Notifications for Gear S" app in Playstore to get the reply functionality from Whatsapp notifications.

See page 1 for links to XDA showing how to pair without a Samsung.

It doesn't need to be a Note4. A Note 3 will also do, or any recent Samsung mid-to-flagship phone.

See page 1 for links to XDA showing how to pair without a Samsung.

Joy is it possible if i only use it as it is? I mean like a stand alone device not pairing with any other samsung phones? as using iphone 6 currently and want that watch badly =(

Just to inform that Xtremeguard Screen Protector for Gear S is now available. Check this link if interested.. Thanks.
