Samsung launched its first smartwatch bearing the Galaxy Watch brand in 2018. Until then, it was using the name “Gear” in its watches and the last model of this series was introduced in 2016. Samsung Gear S3 was.
Although the Gear S3, which came with Samsung’s own Tizen operating system, was one of the remarkable models of its time in terms of its hardware features, it was seen as a significant disadvantage that it did not support the Android Wear platform. Even after 6 years, this wish of the users came true.
Samsung Gear S3 managed to run Wear OS
A developer from the XDA Developers team, Installing Wear OS 2 on Gear S3 succeeded. Although the smart watch, powered by the Exynos 7270 processor, has lost software and hardware support, it has been noted that most of its original features work seamlessly with Google’s wearable operating system.
Important name for the development of digital art from Samsung
Samsung introduced the dART Digital Art Platform, which will contribute to the development of digital art in Turkey. Here are the details…
While the sensors and heart rate measurement on it can be used as it should be, it was reported that many errors occurred. For example, your watch battery life is very poor compared to before and the audio output doesn’t work as expected either. In addition, the GPS feature is not available and other minor problems are reported.
According to the shared information, Wear OS 2 is the Samsung Gear S3 Frontier (model number SM-R760). Compatible with non-LTE global version. However, LTE models (like the Korean variants) unfortunately do not support it, as they have a different core structure. The operating system can be installed not only on Frontier, but also on the “Classic” version.
Of course, it should not be forgotten that this process may cause the clock to crash in software. In such a case, there is a possibility that the device may never be booted up again as Samsung does not provide official technical support.
