Galaxy apps with Huawei P20

[trankilnet]

Hello,
I just bought a Huawei P20 that I received yesterday. I managed to connect it correctly to my Gear S3 but I can't install applications or any watchface because galaxy apps is not compatible with my phone.:crying:
Would you have a solution?

Thank you in advance.

Response from Samsung

Hi. I have received the following from Samsung. I wonder how long this will take as my new Gear Sport is pretty much useless without this fix. I have same issue, Gear app works on my Huawei P20 pro but the Galaxy app store from within won't. It doesn't even work on the watch.

I am from PORTUGAL and I am having the same problem with Huawei P20 Pro

 

[dam13nyap]

I contacted Samsung Malaysia and their answer given is tthat the device is not compatible. No solutions so far.. it's either they update a patch or u got a smart watch which is basically a watch which u have to charge.. and no other functions

The quick and dirty solution is described here : https://xdaforums.com/gear-s3/themes/how-to-gear-s3-unsupporteted-android-t3521532

But you have to change somthings in the APK APKSTUDIO before you can use files in the thread above
remove the line
android:sharedUserId="com.samsung.accessory.wmanager" i have got galaxy app store working now on p20 pro

Edit:
I have put de modded ready to use APK's in
https://1drv.ms/f/s!AqXzBH9JU0_h2Eyimok4hOj2Rej3
gear folder
I have installed them with adb
adb install -r "C:/apk/Gear S Plugin_2.2.03.17101341N_modded_mod.apk"
