Nike + now sync with shealth? - Samsung Gear S

Got update today on Nike app, says syncs with shealth. Don't see how or where to sync

You need the update of s health as well. .. Just got it installed on my note 4. Now I see nike+ integrated in s health...

Thanks. Dumb q. How do you get the shealth update? My galaxy store doesn't show my apps some lollipop

I Dont see anything about sheal in the Nike + running app or s health and they're both updated

I updated everything and I see nothing.
Can you please tell us what to do?

S Health is not a simply app update. Samsung managed to create segmentations on S Health, e.g. each different phone models see different versions of S Health only. My Galaxy Alpha only sees S Health 3.5 that was last updated on Jan 2015.

I downloaded the new apk and updated by myself. Yes, now Nike is in S Health.

I don't know where to download it. My phone shows S Health app in Galaxy app store when it was on 4.4.4. But now with 5.0.2, it no longer shows. S Health is not a simple app to update. It depends on all kind of Samsung services to work. Samsung managed to get million different version of S Health targeting million different models of Samsung phone. I typically just wait and once in a while Samsung will push the S Health update to my phone.
Or you can search for S Health APK but keep in mind it may not work for you specific phone.

Odd thing. Updated to lollipop on my Note 4. S-Health is version 4.1.1.0037. It also now shows up in the Google Play Store as well as the Galaxy Apps store.

Casual jogging.
I've been using Gear S and Nike+ for running on a weekly basis. Here are some battery saving tips I have developed. My watch has no SIM card, so no battery drain that way. I use it simply as a GPS distance-measuring + MP3 player over BT mix.
1) Go to Settings just before a run and turn on "GPS". Usually it gets a signal pretty quickly. Then go to "motions" and disable all. Also, go to S Heath and disable the Pedometer.
2) If you jog with musicConnect your BT headphones. Turn on the Music from the Music player, as Nike does not know how to shuffle (whatever, Nike).
3) Go into Nike+ app, decline Music and Cheer requests. Wait a couple minutes, start your run and watch for the green GPS dot to appear.
When all goes as planned, I get more than two hours battery life (estimated). Went down from 90% to 40% battery life during an 1:25 hour 10 mile run. In theory, if you run fast enough Half-Marathon should be no problem, and if you do not use BT for Music at all, then it can probably go more than 3 hours on a single charge with Motion and Pedometer off. Good enough for casual jogging.
This watch is awesome for casual running. Share your tips, if you have any! Thanks!

There is a Running feature in S Health.

For those that updated, can you still use Nike+ or do you now need to use sHealth, because Nike is integrated into it?
I run every day, and switched from sHealth to Nike+ 2 months ago because the GPS signal would take forever to lock in sHealth. How are things after the update? Is sHealth faster? Nike+ slower?

I keep using the NIKE+ for running, but after the update GPS took about 5-7 minutes to lock...will retry again today or tomorrow.

Thank you thank you!! I have not even looked into possibly updating until I hear user feedback, as I was afraid it may slow down the GPS. Can't wait to hear back from you or others after you next run.
Is anything else new or different?
One more question: does Nike now track your HR? On my Gear S, it never did. Just wondering if that has changed since the update.
Thanks!

HR works for me sometimes, depending on how sweaty my hand is + hair . But it is imprecise, as far as I gather.
GPS lock now takes forever. .. ran yesterday and it pretty much skipped the first 750 meters + fooled around with the watch 5 mins beforehand. It still counts the distance though. I never carry the phone with me though.

Thanks strikey17. Is there any benefit to the upgrade that you can see, then? Sounds to me like I should make sure it does not install, if it only slows down the GPS.

How Can I use S health in my Gear S2 to running then sync data with nike+ App?

Nothing to do with the watch app. Nike+ phone app now supports sync data into S Health phone app. Not the other ways around. Your watch S Health app already sync data with S Health app on the phone. So here is how it goes:
Nike+ watch app -> Nike+ phone app->S Health phone app
S Health watch app -> S Health phone app

Lollipop update bugs

After taking update I got excited. Loved the theater mode and different watch faces. However two days in I'm having issues.
X1 remote will no longer work.
Gmail, hangouts, etc notifications are no longer working, rarely will get notified.
Also android wear app has issue forgetting and reconnecting to watch. Have to reboot watch to get it synced. Watch will not display the cloud with slash symbol and will act like it's connected to my phone even tho it's not online. Then after launching voice search it will finally say off-line.
So what should I do? Reset? Roll back to kitkat?
I have read some people with phones running lollipop that they aren't used to priority notifications. But my lg g3 is on kit kat so that's not my issue here.

Uninstall android wear app, reset android watch. Re-download android wear app from play store, re-pair watch with app. Start fresh...

Another bug is the voltage between pins on lollipop (we lost the lg fix), that causes deterioration; and while theater mode is activated, the alarms will not vibrate.
I didn´t have any problems with gmail, hangouts, or disconnections.
Today no issues after following reset and reinstall instructions. I have been able to receive vibrations with theater mode.
Will research this deterioration thing. Haven't heard of it.

I obviously can't complain about battery life. I get 3 or 4 days easily with it turned off at bedtime, always on screen disabled,and brightness at 1.

[Q] Synchronising S health data to Galaxy S4 active or PC

Hi!
I like S health app on my samsung gear s very much. But what can I do with data on my gear? Nothing. Because I don't own S5. It cannot be transferred to S4 Active or PC... Other sport app that I used to use (Runtastic), needs phone connection all the time. So whats the point hawing wach if you have to take your phone to a run anyway? What are the solutions for this problem. How can I syncronise S health to my mobile or PC? Any suggestions?
S Health was updated a month or so ago. Now even my S3 can sync and display S Health data. Your S4 should no be a problem
I'm happy for you, but in my case it's not working. Now i have Android 4.4.2 and my S Health version is 2.5.4.168 and cannot be updated.

My GS3 is running 4.4.2. You will need S Health 3.xx to get full support of Gear S. As far as I know it was available to all Samsung phones S3 and newer. Not sure why your didn't get the update. It was pushed down automatically from Samsung.
See this http://forum.xda-developers.com/gear-s/general/s-health-3-5-app-finally-available-to-t2945386
I have dowloaded 3.5 version and updated current (2.5.XXX) version, couldn't start the app...(I didn't download it from the store. It can't be found in the store.)
it needs bunch of services to be updated first. not an easy install if you manually install. It's a mess.
Now I'm thinking about to buy S5 active, would S health app in S5 Active synchronise data from my gear S?

It should as all S5 era phones (note 4, Alpha) come with S Health 3.xx. But with Samsung, you never know.

I'm convinced the Gear S was an excellent purchase for me

After 2 days I can say with conviction that the Gear S is a worthy investment for the money.
A little research and I've got it all set up to my needs.
- Getting Hangouts, Facebook Messenger, & text messages, all with the ability to reply
- Getting my Google Now alerts (traffic, weather, etc)
- Streaming Milk Music as standalone
- Opera Mini browser enables me to check/reply/send Gmail, browse/interact with Facebook, Google Search, etc
- Enabled continuous swipe input in the stock keyboard in settings
- Changed my voice-wake to "OK Google"
- Battery easily lasts me almost 2 days entire day with moderate use
I can't think of a single thing that I am disappointed about. And that's saying a lot as I had high expectations.
If you're on the edge of buying this, I say go all in. Speaking of which, I'm on the Edge as well. T-Mobile
I just got mine today and so far I'm loving it. I only wish you had a manual to show me how to set mine up like that especially replying to Facebook messages.

I'm using Gear Notification Extender (Play Store, have to purchase but worth it) Plus install Android Wear but don't set it up. Open it then back out.

My question is...IF the app shows in Gear manager and in Extender, why is extender needed if GM says it will notify?

After testing today I answered my last question. You, sir, just kept me from returning the watch. With this app I no longer need to touch my phone. I can do everything directly from the watch, by way of responding. I have had my phone on silent all day and managing all things via watch.

Glad I could help. That's what we're all on XDA for!
I think the GS is the most amazing piece of personal tech I have ever come across (IT technician by profession).
I used to carry two phones, one personal and one work, which was a pain. Now I carry a Note 4 as my personal and the GS as my work phone. I run the GS in remote connect mode during the week so it acts as a stand alone number, then on weekends I run it in Bluetooth mode as a companion to my Note (I don't take work calls on the w/e). My exchange account syncs mail, contacts, appointments, etc across all my devices. Emailing, appointments, adding contacts, etc I do on my Note which syncs with the GS. Business calls/msgs I take on the GS and private calls/msgs on the Note.
This solves all my problems and works fantastically.
The GS is incredibly versatile and that may be it's biggest fault - too complex for the average user. Just read many of the posts on here and it is clear that people have no idea about it's features and functionality.
I feel same as you guys. I enjoy my phone everyday. Makes life easier for me. Only issue I am having is that if I get a text message and I go to reply the keyboard won't pop up. I have to go and close all apps thrn go back into messaging app then it works. Any ideas?

I'm having some issue getting what looks like a duplicate for email alerts.
GNE Notifications in Gear Manager = ON
Email Notifications in GNE = ON
Email Notifications in Gear Manager = OFF
I get the email alert 1x with the reply arrows, then again with an "open on Android" at the bottom. Not sure where I'm failing the process. Very excited to get this sussed, this may keep the Gear S in my hands, was getting pretty discouraged!
Thanks for the help.

Congrats to the Gear S and the S6 Edge. May your battery last a long time!
I found Opera in the Samsung app store, that I accessed through Gear Manager. From within Gear Mgr, once connected to your Gear S, you can install all the gear apps you want (not that there are that many). Hope this helps.

I just checked and you are right: Samsung seem to have removed the app, and I can't even find the other browser I saw in there.
It used to be one of the very first apps popping up in the store.
I'm sure we can share the Opera file with you, I just have no clue how it's done.
Damn--looks like I missed it by a matter of DAYS...
Well, at least I know I'm not crazy now. Thanks guys!
Does anyone know a way of manual installing the app into the watch?

Finally updated s health but

Couldn't wait for this. But
1) s health now has splits - but they are wrong! Gives splits by miles which are all 1.3 mph lower than my average for the run. Also my fastest mile (I sprinted) has lowest mph. Can't confirm if it will happen on new fresh run but when I updates s health on verizon note 4 it converted my prior runs. May have been a math error on the conversion.
2) Nike integration. I linked them AMD my entire Nike hx is wiped out. Hope this comes back.
So if I run on a health, can I see the run on Nike app? Or just the other way? Or both ways?
I haven't gotten the update yet on my note edge
Sent from my SM-N915V using XDA Free mobile app
Update. So my Nike app reconnected and I do have my stats. The integration of the two apps is marginal - there is simply a link in shealth to open Nike app. Cannot see my bike run stats in shealth stat area.
I wonder if new Nike runs will be further integrated.
Unsure about new rings

Downloaded Watch Face is not showing up on Android Wear

Ever since I got the most software update earlier July 2017 on my Zenwatch 2, my Zenwatch 2's battery is horrible, it barely last 10 hours with a little usage with brightness set to lowest. I did factory reset hope to fix the issue, after I did factory reset I was trying to download my watch face back to my watch, I noticed it is not showing up at all so I try download any other watch faces and none of it are showing on the Android Wear app. Currently I am stuck using only stock watch faces. Anyone else having similar issue?
You have to add the custom watch faces in face designer on the watch. Swipe left and tap add more watch faces at the right hand end of the list of watch faces. You need to also have the custom watch face app or apps installed on both your phone and watch.
You will need to go into your play store on the watch and add the custom face apps to the watch. You should see any app that is on your phone and which has a complimentary watch app in the list at the bottom of the scroll called apps on your phone.

I did do that, before the new update any watch faces I download show up in the Android Wear app, right now none of the custom watch faces I download are showing in Android Wear.
They won't. It works a bit different now. You have to use the app that comes with each one to manage them and then add them to your watch as I detailed.

I noticed only the watch faces I download directly from the Watch's Play store showed up on my watch and my Android Wear app, but any watch faces I download from Play store on my phone is not showing up on neither my watch or Android Wear, so base on what I found out is that if any of my previous purchase of watch faces didn't found on the app store on my watch that basically mean it is not supported in the latest version of Android Wear.
That could bead well. Just like anything the app developer has to update his or her app to work with aw 2.0

You must go on the "PlayStore" app on YOUR watch and look at the section "app from phone" to install faces/apps wich is yet on your phone. With Wear 2, phone faces/apps are not automatically installed on the watch. Users must install all or only the one they want.

If that the case then I will say I HATE this update, it used to be so easier if I want to download watch face on my watch I can download on my phone Play Store then it will automatically add to my watch. Also I quite sure new update rendered my Zenwatch's battery unusable, my battery drop 100% to 5% within 10 hours, I used to get to able through almost 2 full days without charging it.

Yes, twin already. Didn't helped for now I am force to turned off ambient mode and set brightness to lowest just get watch with usable battery life again though still no luck getting back the watch face "LED Time" I purchased download to my watch. I am currently addressing this issue to the developer who made that face watch so hopefully that issue can be fixed from the developer who design the watch face. I am extremely irritated with new update that screw up my watch. By the way trying find watch face on my watch by typing in name with small tiny screen was fun! (sarcasm). I wish someone would make those developers who released the latest Android Wear update to type on their Smartwatch with their life depend on it.
Turn off automatic wifi as that uses lots of power and likely you did not have that turned on with 1.5
My battery life was pretty bad for a few days after the update, but once I let it run down completely and die, then charge to 100% it was back to normal.

I hope that is the case, I charge my watch to 100% took it off the charger around 1pm by 11pm my battery life down to 5%. Since I turn ambient mode off battery seen to getting better even though I previously had ambient turn on the entire time before the update and my watch managed to last almost 2 full days.

Actually I did have my wifi turn on as well as ambient turn on before 2.0 update. that was my setting and it lasts me almost 2 days. I don't use my watch to make call or send text message, I mainly use it just to check a few notification though out the day and obviously to tell time so I don't have heavy usage on it.
The latest update to the Android Wear app on your phone.should allow watch face modding and changes once again from the app.
