Does anyone know if the Samsung Gear S is compatible with BlackBerry 10? For the first setup a compatible smartphone is required...
I do not believe so. To my knowledge, you MAY get it to pair VIA bluetooth, but that will be the extent. I don't know of anyone that's managed to get it to work. I have tried the Moto 360 and was unsuccessful with it. The problem isn't the ability to connect, it's the underlying lack of google services and google wear stuff for the phone to communicate with the watch and tell it what to do.
The app is only needed for the first setup. The required app Samsung Gear is only available in the Galaxy Store. Unfortunately I didn't find the apk for Samsung Gear :(
Maybe I need a galaxy smartphone from a colleague to connect during the setup...
I believe Samsung wearables are only compatible to Samsung phones

Q10 with 10.2.x or 10.3x?
Finally I found the lastest Samsung Gear App apk. Hopefully I can connect the watch trough BlackBerry 10.3.1 with my Passport. Now I have to wait for my Samsung Gear S :D
I tried pairing my z30 using samsung apk. All works at first. It sees the phone and then when u first true to pair the app tries to install some extra stuff and that is when it fails.

Hello,
So does it work or not ?
Seems not to work. You can install the gear manager on 10.3.2 and it sees the Galaxy Gear S. The watch resets and tries to initialise itself... thats where the show stops... no installation of samsung apps, no connection :-( Would really like to pair it with my trusty Z10, but it seems I have to leave the samsung phone at home connected to WLAN to get the notifications on the go.
