gear s3 not connecting galaxy s10+ - Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers

Hi there,
I recently got a second-hand gear s3 frontier off of a family member who had used it with two different phones with no problems (Galaxy s9 and iPhone 12), but when I tried to set it up with my galaxy s10+, it connects but gives me the error message "unable to install. Unexpected error." setting up and downloading the gear s plugin. I tried connecting it to a pixel 3 and also to the iPhone 12 that it had previously worked with, but it also says that it isn't able to connect. We have hard reset it, multiple times, but it still doesn't work.
Any help in fixing the problem would be greatly appreciated .

Hi Jeremy,
I never had this problem with any of my Samsung smartwatches/smartphones, but i have a friend who had the same problem.
He managed to connect the S3 after resetting his network connections.
Verify also if you have the latest Gear (Wear) software installed on your S10+.
Good luck!

Hi there Florio,
Thank you so much for your reply
We tried resetting the network connections and master reset the watch once more for good measure, and I verfied that I was using the correct app. Unfortunately none of these were successful.
Thanks for your help,
Jeremy.

[FIXED] Cannot create Activesync account - Activation failed !

I removed my ActiveSync Email account on Friday evening as part of a system test.
However, whenever I try to re-setup the account, at the last step in the process where it says "Activation - By activating this application ....", when I press YES, the screen shows "Checking incoming server settings" as normal for a moment, but then a popup dialog appears saying
Setup could not finish
Activation failed. Unable to
connect to network. Try again
with network provider's
default APN
[OK]
I have tried a "Factory data reset" - same result
I have tried setting up over both Vodafone network, and known good wi-fi network - same result
I have tried reflashing the firmware - same result
I did find a thread on the Galaxy S II forum that has about 10 reports of this issue happening to other people over the weekend.
Hopefully Samsung can fix this quickly, as I need my email.
In the meantime, if you need Exchange Email - I would advise not changing anything on your phone.
I have exactly the same problem on my i9100 stock ROM 2.3.5. I was thinking if it was my problem but after trying the same procedure on 3 of my colleagues i9100 all of them get the same error. Obviously there is something wrong with Samsung activation (???) server.

" Hi All,
I had already mentioned that inspite of factory reset, the problem persisted. Then how can by unistalling the profile, reboot & installing it again will work ????
"The problem has resolved only after contacting samsung service center. They took the remote screen of the mobile & asked me to setup my email & to my surprise it worked this time. It seems they have made some changes in their server which made it work though they didn't mentioned this "
Thanking all for your support
Same here - how did you resolve the issue?

Issues connecting to Verizon jetpack

I have a 16 GB Samsung galaxy s5 on Verizon. I've been trying to connect my phone to one of the jetpacks from Verizon and every time I try it doesn't give an error message it just refuses to connect. The jetpack will allow every other device on it to connect except for mine. Any help is appreciated thank you

Are you sure the passcode is correct for you to be accessing it? AFAIK you have to have them passcode locked.
Yeah it wasn't the password. I found the reset on the jetpack shortly after posting and after holding that for 10 seconds everything started working fine. Thanks for the help though

[Q] WiFi Disabled

I have just recently purchased a Samsung Galaxy Note 4. I love this phone and didn't have any problems until now. My phone will not connect to any WiFi and it will either say "Saved and Secured" or "Disabled." Either way, it won't connect. I've looked on some different websites and some suggested to reboot my phone. But, I don't know if they are a safe website so I didn't do that. Please help me.
No harm in rebooting, give it a shot.

Note 4 Disconnects from network

Hello,
I own a N910CQ for 1.5 years now.
Two days ago, suddenly my phone started to disconnect from the network. Neither incoming/outgoing calls nor mobile data works *seamlessly*. The network connects momentarily and disconnects not so long after.
Some non-authorized fixer said that that was a typical Note series problem and asked me if I wanted to proceed further because he had to remove the front glass to try to fix it. I did not allow him to do it so I am stuck with a working but useless Note 4 right now.
Have you ever encountered such issue and if so how did you overcome it?
Thanks in advance.

Go to settungs/back up & reset and factory reset erase everything and try diffrent sim card also.maybe software or sim card issue.
No luck.
I switched from Polish ROM to Turkish one (both 6.0.1), do you think modem files might be causing such issues?
Fixer said nothing visible seemed like the root of the problem and that if I took it to a Samsung Service they would most probably like to replace the motherboard and that would cost almost as much as a new phone.

Can't access wifi or data to set up recently bought galaxy s5 neo

Hi. I just want to say thank you to the help I've gotten from xda over the last few years.
I just bought a used galaxy s5 neo that has obviously been rooted. It boots up with Lineage logo and TWRP is installed. The problem I have is I can't get past the beginning of the phone's set up, specifically the 'checking for updates' screen. My WiFi is working correctly and my data is working but after 1 min or so I get a message to change the network because there's no connectivity with the one I'm using. It doesn't matter if I set up using wifi or my data. After searching and being told to reset the network settings or change the APN settings, I'm not sure the search engine gets my badly posed question. I can't get into the phone to change anything or even be more specific about the phone.
Is there a fix here that doesn't require super techy abilities? Thanks
