Which Android 10 Rom for use with Gear VR? - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Hello,
i've decided to quit the samsung stock rom and use custom fw with root for better privacy. I've installed the new Lineage OS (Version: lineage-17.1-20200415-UNOFFICIAL-dreamlte.zip) successfully on my Galaxy S8.
But i cant get the Gear VR Service to work. I've got all needed APK files but cant install a couple of it (gear vr shell, gear vr service). I've installed the gear vr setup wizard successfully but when i start it nothing happens.
Is is not possible to use my gear vr with this lineage firmware? If not is there any other cfw out there with newest android 10 updates and gear vr support?
Thanks.

Extracting gear framework to other android watches

I know this is probably not doable, but would it be possible to extract the gear manager connection apk from a galaxy gear to run on other android watches. Is there a standalone apk or is it baked into the rom?

Samsung Galaxy A3 SM-A3000 lack Google Apps

I have bought a Samsung Galaxy A3 SM-A3000 upgraded with Android 5.0.2. in China but everything related to Google has been removed. No Play Store, no calender and trouble with GMAIL. How do I get the Google apps/services installed?
Go the same problem with my SM-A7000. I Wish someone will port the rom with gapps. That would really work. Did you ever manage to get it working?

Essential Phone and Gear S Plugin with Oreo beta 3

I have install Samsung Gear APK from Google Play for use my Samsung IconX 2018 and my Samsung Gear S3 Frontier wear but the software crash during the first up and send feedback. Loop in Crash. It is normal ? or not work in Oreo beta ?
Suggenstion ?
I have the S3 Classic and it works perfectly with Oreo Beta 3. I would try fully uninstalling the app and starting from scratch. If you can, maybe even set up your phone again.
Mine also works fine with my gear S2. Bl unlocked? Rooted? I had that issue before rooting.
Solved ! The problem is in selected languages during the startup wizard of Essential Phone, when select languages there is two selection of the same languages, ITALIANO and ITALIANO (Italia). If i selected ITALIANO do not work Gear S3 Plugin and also Google Assistant, selected ITALIANO (Italia) work all well !
Solved. It is appropriate remove the selection ITALIANO in wizard !

Galaxy S10+ SM-G975F Galaxy Watch pairing issue with Magisk

Hello,
I am curious to see if anyone else had or still has this issue and if there is a fix for it.
Devices involved:
Phone - Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus (SM-G975F) Android Version: 10.0 Build Number G975FXXU4CTC9
Watch - Samsung Galaxy Watch 46mm (NO LTE)
Before rooting with Magisk I was able to pair the watch to the phone using the Galaxy Wearable App and use the watch with no problems. (And it still connects with my unrooted Xiaomi mi 9T)
After rooting my s10+ with Magisk (latest stable and also previous version) I was no longer able to pair the watch. It would start out fine by showing a matching passkey on both devices. I accept the code and they would begin to pair. Once the watch displays "Use phone to complete setup" is when the problems presented.
The Galaxy Wearable app will say its pairing the devices but shows nothing and keeps sending a notification saying it sees the watch and asks to connect or cancel. I tap connect and I get a white screen with a spinning circle. After 3-5 seconds the white screen goes away and 3-5 seconds later I am asked to connect the watch again.
If I go to Settings>Connections>Bluetooth (on the phone) I can see the watch is paired but the app will not complete setup. (I can pair to my car Bluetooth and JBL Xtreme speaker with no problems)
I am using Magisk Hide on the Galaxy Watch Plugin, Galaxy Wearable App, and Samsung Accessory Service but that hasn't helped. Nor does uninstalling and reinstalling Galaxy Wearable App.
Any thoughts?
Please help me, im messing around with this crap since 4 days. (I restored the phone about 20 times with odin an retryed again and again)
Could it be related to tripping knox through rooting (i.e. then some of the Samsung apps will not work e.g. Samsung Health)? I am unable to register S.Health and Wearable (on my rooted S7 edge) will not work.
However, working fine on non-rooted S10+.
Does this help?

My Galaxy S3 Frontier works fine on Stock rooted + Lineage OS 17.1 .
there is a mgaisk module you can try called "Bluetooth Libary Patcher". Find it in Magisk -- Downloads -- and search for it there (just type bluetooth in search panel on top)
as i said, my watch works as it should.
and for Samsung helath: if youre rooted you just have to add one line in build.prop: ro.config.tima=1

But do you lose the Samsung stock camera with this Rom? I have the same exact problem as you. When I was running the Evolution X custom Rom I could connect. But I wasn't happy with the camera that Rom provided. The stock camera on this phone is so amazing and one of the main reasons I bought the phone. I feel cheated when I have to give that up

I was having the exact same issue. I just activated magisk hide. And also installed the magisk module, Bluetooth library patcher. Now mine paired up first try. Not sure which helped or if it was a combination of both. But I'm paired up now.
Having same issue too. Tried changing props, tried multi disabler. Tried editing rules.
Now the app can enter but watch not connected

Hi! Given a Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2 (LTE) watch and a rooted Galaxy S10 (Android Q). Bluetooth pairing starts but does not end. Two Magisk modules id have been installed but I can't pair them. Is there anything you can bring together? So much for all the stupidity to read, but no answer or stupidity throughout. I can't install Viper4android on the same phone under Android 10. Magisk 21.4, but the 2.7 Viper doesn’t go up. It is installed by plugin, but not among applications. Can these be solved somehow? There was no problem under Android 9. Unfortunately, for the latest Android Q version, XEH version November 27, 2020, TWRP is not trable either. I download the right version, with Magisk, I boot into the AP with Odin, then start button, and odin closes immediately. Nothing goes on this ****ty Android Q. I am waiting for help together or separately! Thanks!

I have problem pairing my Galaxy S21 Ultra and Galaxy Watch Active 2.
No pairing issues before rooting (stock firmware). After rooting using both stable Magisk V22 and Canary 22005, it stuck on Finalizing Pairing screen. I also noticed that the Bluetooth and Samsung accessory icons briefly shown on the notification bar (appear part of the screen) and then disappear.
I hope someone has solution to this.
