Samsung gear s2 connected but always offline

Hello,

I finally managed to get my Samsung Gear S2 to connect to my Mac (Mavericks) via LAN. The computer is on a hard line (ethernet cable) and the watch is on wifi on the same network. I am using :

Tizen SDK for Wearable

Version : 1.0.0
Build id : 20140411-1445

Yesterday , the watch showed up on the SDK and i was able to run apps. I have my certificates in order and the watch has DEBUG on and has already alowed permission. 

Today, no matter what i do, i cant get it to work. The watch no londer appears in the Connection Manager. When i use the sdb tool, i see the device and i can connect to it, but it's always offline

kh-mac:tools juancarlosospinagonzalez$ ./sdb connect 10.224.189.40
10.224.189.40:26101 is already connected
kh-mac:tools juancarlosospinagonzalez$ ./sdb devices
List of devices attached 
10.224.189.40:26101 	offline

I already tried kill-server/start-server and restarted both watch and computer. None of that helps. How to troubleshoot this issue?

I think the sdb version of TizenSDK for Wearables is too old. U need 2.2.26 like in the guide described.

Use TizenSDK 2.3.1 to develop wearables application :)

correction: u need atleast version 2.2.67 of sdb.

You can check with "sdb version" the current version of sdb.

Ok. Now i did a reset on the watch. And i can't connect anymore. I switched to 

Tizen SDK

Version : 2.3.1
Build id : 20150721-1440

I am using "sdb version"

kh-mac:tools juancarlosospinagonzalez$ ./sdb version
Smart Development Bridge version 2.2.67

But connecting now doesn't work at all

kh-mac:tools juancarlosospinagonzalez$ ./sdb kill-server
kh-mac:tools juancarlosospinagonzalez$ ./sdb start-server
kh-mac:tools juancarlosospinagonzalez$ ./sdb connect 10.224.189.40
error: failed to connect to remote target '10.224.189.40'

DEBUG is ON and IP is correct.The computer is in the same network with ip 10.224.189.41. What other troubleshooting can be done?

Hi

It seems that you've activated bluetooth of Gear S2. I think that you need to turn off it to connect to Gear S2 on IDE.

Hi,

Just now, I've experienced same issue and resolved it after rebooting my PC and device as well.

Thanks for the suggestions but bluetooth is off and rebooting doesn't work. I think there are serious compatibility issues with this SDK and i'm gonna try switching to a PC rather than a Mac and see how that works out.

Hi,

According to below document, a version of sdb should 2.2.67 or later. so I would suggest you to check the version of sdb.

In my case sdb version was very low as I've installed different version of sdk and it caused the problem.
