Looks like you bricked it. To recover, you will need to:
1. Put the Gear S into download mode via some kind of button procedure. I don't know anything about it. Try Google it. It must be in download mode before you can proceed to next one.
2. Find a firmware file for your specific model of Gear S. Once the watch is on download mode, you can use ODIN to flash the new firmware.

This is assume you didn't mess up the bootloader. If you did, throw the watch into the trash.

did you ever find a solution to this. My watch is doing the same thing and I can't seem to find a fix. there has to be one out there somewhere.
