Looks interesting and I'm not using a package disabler now. Does this app do anything more than if I just manually go in and disable apps or System apps?

I like how the Gear Manager app allows you to backup and restore your S2 configuration. However, after a successful backup, I'd like to copy the file to an off-phone location. But, after searching everywhere in the phone's file structure I can think of, and also checking Smart Switch backups of...

Update & happy ending to this thread: After talking to Samsung Pay support, I was asked to send in my Gear S2 3G to the closest services center, which I did last week. Today, I received the watch back & after inputting my card info and thinking the card validation process would fail again - IT...

Slightly off topic, but, have you gotten Samsung Pay to work on your Gear S2 and successfully added a debit/credit card? I'm using an AT&T S2 3G paired to my Note 4, but I'm not on AT&T, so the watch is just functioning as a bluetooth-paired device. But, I can't add a card to Samsung Pay.

I thought that might be a problem, too. So, using the AT&T SIM I kept, I went through the process of adding a new card, while using the AT&T SIM - same result.

Just as the T-Mobile users have been receiving, I got the Samsung Pay Beta install notification, and have successfully installed SP on both my Note 4 (AT&T, but using Cricketwireless) and S2. On the watch, I can press & hold the back button & SP pops up, and the SP app appears to be fully...

Here's the last few paragraphs of the article: "Official pricing and availability for the Samsung Gear S3 hasn’t been announced yet. The Gear S2 cost $300 and $350, therefore, it is very likely that Samsung will price the Gear S3 along the same lines. It could be more though, we’re not sure...

Re: Note to Self: Going forward, never purchase a Samsung device with a "promised" sofware feature. Agreed. But, here's the original review of the Gear S2 on CNet: Samsung Gear S2 review - CNET And, the important part of the review (page 2), as far as this thread: "Mobile payments via...

Re: Note to Self: Going forward, never purchase a Samsung device with a "promised" sofware feature. Actually, I can and do read which models Samsung Pay works on: Samsung Pay - Safe and Simple Mobile Payments And, since I have one of the 3G versions, as I stated in my OP, I understand that...

Note to Self: Going forward, never purchase a Samsung device with a "promised" sofware feature. Just a rant, but I'm annoyed that now well into the 3rd quarter of 2016, my S2 3G (AT&T) STILL doesn't have Samsung Pay (SP). I realize that SP on the carrier devices would be slowed by the...

I've been looking at stepping up to the N7 once replacements are available here in the US. But, then I watched this Youtube video (found it on the GalaxyNote 4 subreddit). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0pCnCPNEcc For me, the N7 does perform slightly better, BUT, not US $900 better, so I'm...

Same here (and I used it when I sent the Gear back to Samsung to repair the screen). If you haven't found this setting yet, you CAN increase the vibration intensity on the Gear: Settings > Sound > Vibration > Intensity > Strong.

I'm using the same face & have had that problem in the past. However, I just got my S2 3G back from Samsung repair & AccuWeather-based weather data is again being sent to my S2. I'm pretty sure it was working for me most recently (before the repair) - I'm pretty sure I did at least a "Light...

Same setup as yours - AT&T with Numbersync. I hadn't thought much about it until you mentioned it, but yes, my Gear S2 does the same ding with "new" messages (that are definitely not new) when the S2 transitions from bluetooth to Remote connection. I just dismiss the messages, now that I've had...

Having the ability to add a SD card to the Note 4 worked great for me, just yesterday. I've been using it since it first came out without an expansion card. But recently, I've been on a quest to rip my local CD/vinyl collection and copy those albums to the Note, eventually getting to where I...
