Will Galaxy Watch 7 get the Update ?

Why shouldn’t the GW 7 receive it?

There is currently a rollout in the USA

Hi @SGWatchDesign . I sort of meant when ? . I know Ultra is on line for an update . I just wondered if GW7 would be left on the Legacy list . I wonder if the FE range would get the update . How far back will they go . All the way back to Tizen . The previous deprication .

Yesterday, I received my new Watch 8 with One UI 8.

For my old Watch 5 Pro, I developed a watch face with Watchface Studio. I tried to upload this to the Watch 8, but without success.

Does the Watchface Studio need an update to work with the new One UI 8?

WFS 1.8.10 will do the trick . You might need to include a WFF tag to elevate the file to 33+ .

Thanks for the quick answer.

At first I had to find out, what a WFF tag is :face_with_open_eyes_and_hand_over_mouth: . And I found that several are used in the watchface like [DAY_WEEK_F], [SEC_Z], [HR] and others.

Then the problem is obviously, how to get an connection to the Watch 8. Debugging mode is activated, ADB Debugging and Wireless Debugging is switched on. When I get the window entering IP, Port and other addresses, I always get the error “Failed to pair a device”.

What’s wrong?:face_with_bags_under_eyes:

Check the obvious things first, can you still make a connection to your Galaxy 5 Pro? This could help indicate if its computer related, or watch related.

Unfortunately not possible anymore. I had to send back the 5. It was a Trade-In by Samsung; thus I got the 8 cheaper.

For your information: I tried it with a notebook (WLAN), PC (LAN) in the same network, and a hot spot with my smartphone, where I connected the notebook and the watch 8. In all cases the same error.

Have you checked the port number is correct for the watch .

Yes, IP address, IP port, pairing code and pairing port, all correctly entered as shown on the watch.

I also tried the pairing on my windows PC. According to

I opened a powershell window in “<WFS installation folder>\tools\window” and entered

.\adb.exe pair IP address:port

then I had to enter the pairing code. The following answer I received:

Failed: Wrong password or connection was dropped.

Any ideas?:face_with_bags_under_eyes:

I had success!:sweat_smile:

Had to use the powershell. But I did a mistake! The first command

.\adb.exe pair IP-address:port

here the pairing port has to be used.

The second command

.\adb.exe connect IP-address:port

where port is the value shown after switch on the wireless debugging, the IP-port!

Also this command was successful and my notebook was shown on the watch as connected device.

Now my watch was directly shown in the WatchFaceStudio, when I clicked “Run on device”.

Many thanks to all!:smiley:
