What version of gear manager are you using mine is 2.1.14062401. I'm using gear 1 with tizen and my note 3.
I don't see anything new in Samsung apps, I have nowhere near the number of avalible apps you do. Maybe the uk is just lagging behind.

Turns out I needed to spoof my build prop so that my Note 3 looked like a Sprint Note 2. Seems Samsung are being weird with their restrictions.

Have a look towards the end of the show us your Gear Watch faces thread. I posted how I did it there.

Thanks for buid.prop edit solution. I'm in the USA on a Verizon S4, edited my build.prop to look like a Sprint note 2 and tripled the number of apps available in the store. I did notice I am not seeing a few of the apps that Phil999 posted pictures of and he is on a stock S5. I can see a clock face called Notification Watch that Phil posted but it is not showing with my note 2 workaround. Gotta do some more digging in the forums to see if someone has posted what the S5 build.prop edit is.
If Phil999 could post the values from his build prop we should be able to get the same apps as he sees.
Phil999 could you post the values for the following from your build prop
Code:
ro.product.model=SPH-L900
ro.product.name=t0ltespr
ro.product.device=t0ltesprIt would be a big help to us all.
I wonder if we could mirror some of the free app somehow , not sure on the legality of it though.

I think Phil is on a stock S5 probably not rooted so he may not be able to get into the system folder to look at the build.prop. The model number for the Sprint S5 is SM-900PZKASPR, so it may be we just need to change that in the build.prop. I will give it a try when I get home tonight.
I was thinking it might be useful to have an app that gave you a list of phones /models and set the build prop appropriately. This could significantly simplify the process.
I'll be looking into creating this over the next few days, the hard part will be building a database of models with settings that work.

If you have root access to go into your system/build.prop file then go to the below linked post. All you need to change is the model then save and reboot. You should have access to more apps. I change my model to a Galaxy S5 which I think gave me access to all the available apps.
ro.product.model=SAMSUNG-SM-G900A (this is the only line in build.prop you need to edit)

It is possible to sideload apps onto the gear with tizen. I've done it for a few things I've found around the boards here, watch faces, apps, etc. You need to download the tizen sdk for wearables. Then you can use sdb install <wgt file>
The problem would be in getting the apps from the store and distributing them. Not to mention people here who have done this havn't managed to get interaction between a phone app and the watch app to work. An example is the fleksy thread where you can get the wgt file and the apk for both watch and phone. They are useless because they can't talk to each other and the watch app sits at an empty contacts screen.
In short yes it should be possible but some apps that work with a counterpart on the phone may not.
I'd be happy to help transfer wgt files from my watch if I can get at them and if someone can clarify the rules on posting them here for me.
