For it to work with the Nexus 6, you will need to download app called Samsung Galaxy Gear. To be able to download it, you will need a Samsung device. The only other option, if you have a Gear S would be to use the Gear S as a standalone device which would not communicate with the phone. If you want to use the Nexus 6 with a wearable, you will have to get an Android Wear device.

Someone got it to work with the Nexus 5, so unless an incompatibility arose with Lollipop it should work on the Nexus 6 - provided you are rooted.

I have the same problem. I just switch my Galaxy S5 for Nexus 6.. My Galaxy Gear 2 will not cooperate. I can't get samsung app on my phone. I tried Android wear instead, but it does not connect to the watch. My Gear 2 is looking for samsung app...Jack
