Gear manager apps wont open

[Justin Meiring]

I have the original galaxy gear and note 3. When i received the gear a couple days ago it paired and connected flawlessly. However, when i try to open samsung apps in gear manager, it will not open. I tap it and it flashes so i know its been selected, but it never opens up. I don't know what to do, i've uninstalled and reinstalled several times. Any advice would be appreciated. Im running 4.4.2 by the way.

i have the same issue and have been battling with it for about a week.

You guys might have uninstalled some key samsung apps. I had the same issue and it was fixed when I allowed them and installed them again.

How did you go about re-instaling the apps? I'm stuck! Thanks for your help.

I'm having the same problem with the gear 2 neo and note 4. I can open the gear manager and click on a menu item. The page flashes and then fades to white.

I also have a Neo and Note 4. Give me an example of a menu item you click and experience this. What version of Android are you on?

I was having the same problem. I could not open "Samsung Gear Apps" in the Gear Manager. I realized that I disable the "Galaxy Apps" app. Once I enabled this app, I was able to open the "Samsung Gear Apps" and search for new apps for my Neo.

Hope this helps.

That did the trick brother. Thank you.

Have the same problem, but how did you re-enable the app? I only see FORCE STOP under app setting?

 

[ssssssssssssssssssssssss]

Yeah, happens to me too. And there is no option to "enable". Could you guys please explain where did you enable the app? Thanks

So I finally figured out how to fix the issue. This was for my Galaxy Watch... For me... in settings I had to go to App Permissions > Turn OFF the permissions, then back out ... then go back in and turn ON the permissions ... then I got the error Network Cannot Connect ... so I had to go into the WiFi... Turn it OFF... back out... then go back in and Turn it ON. That somehow fixed it for me. Crazy ridiculousness.
