How can I connect my Gear 2 Neo to my HTC One M8?

Can't connect my Gear 2 Neo to my HTC One M8

Just got my Gear 2 Neo and can't connect it to my phone.

1) Tried to connect using NFC by touching the charging cradle to the back of phone as instructed. Didn't work.
2) Downloaded Gear Manager and it doesn't even see the watch when I manually try to pair it.
3) Trying to open Gear Manager this stops immediately.
3) Went to bluetooth in my HTC One M8 setting. Paired it (showed same bluetooth connection code on watch and phone and activated), The watch even beeped when connected. However, the Gear still shows its startup screen and hasn't started working.
4) The Gear Manager manual connect shows the watch but still won't connect even though the watch beeps.

What can I do? Any help? I'm using a AT&T Galaxy Note 3 with latest Kit Kat update.

Gear 2 neo only works with certain Samsung phones I believe

HUH?
The title says HTC one M8, your in the M8 forum, but your last sentence says your usinga Galaxy Note 3.

Gear 2 neo is TIZEN, which is Samsung proprietary. So for sure will not work with HTC. Its NOT adroid wear.
