How to install samsung pay gear plugin on Oneplus 5T

[Android Central Question]

No matter what I do I cannot install the Samsung pay plugin for the gear s3 frontier on my OnePlus 5T. Samsung support completely ignored my request. When I try to install the plugin, nothing happens and I cannot open it on the watch or phone. Any solutions to get Samsung pay for my watch? It's brand new and now seems a bit pointless compared to the Huawei watch 2 I was going to get.

This seems to be an older thread but it addresses the same issue with OnePlus phones. Apparently the newer versions of the plugin are incompatible, but users have been having success by manually installing an older plugin (just careful where you get it, this IS a potential risk not only for your phone but for your credit card information).

I moved this to the Gear S3 forum for more specific traffic.

I'm not positive but I think you have to have a Samsung phone for Samsung Pay to work on the watch. I have a Moto X4 and could never get Samsung Pay to work.

That's not correct. I used an SP on an LG V30 with a Gear S3. Now I use my Gear S3 with an S9+.
