Have you figured out how to enable oxygen blood saturation in active 2,?
I heard about face watch that has spo2 whats the name of it
Hamid, be aware that SpO2 sensors on watches may not be as accurate as those on medical devices. Again, the GWA2 does measure VO2 which is not the same as SpO2. Finally, as far as I know, the GWA2 only has two photodiodes, one green for heart rate and other red. A pulse oximeter needs two diodes, one red and other infra red.

4I hope someone smarter than me can crack this problem and spread the fix to make SPO2 sensor work on Active2 Watch. Samsung is acting like *ssholes to block this good feature just to sell more expensive (and heavy) Watch3. This feature could be valuable to detect sleep apnea and low SP02 in Covid-19 virus cases.2I had previously left this issue in the form of a comment Here, but I think that considering solved the issue of BP/ECG, it is better to have a separate thread for this issue.
It may have been forgotten, but according to previous samsung's announcements about regarding the ending of the ability to measure blood oxygen in the previous phone models, Samsung uses a blood oxygen sensor to measure stress level right now whether on cell phones with this sensor or on the galaxy watch /GW active/GW active2 / or other Models.
So we can be sure that this sensor is already embedded on the watches!
another reason is the measurement of blood pressure by the watch because the method of measuring blood pressure is obtained by combining the measurement of heart rate and blood oxygen with special formulas based on my research!
So it is clear that "samsung" will not enable this feature right now (or maybe never) (Remember: like enablting touch bezel on galaxy watch Active!) to sell more galaxy watch 3 !
because in the galaxy watch active 2 sales advertisements, there was no claim by Samsung to measure the amount of oxygen in the blood, and only the ECG was mentioned that now launched!
From now on, friends who are active in this field may be able to port this feature to galaxy watch/GW active/GW active 2/other models/ by extracting related files and create moded shealth tpk or creating a moded ROM.
I hope and thank them in advance for their efforts
sorry for bad english because i am from "iran" that NOT Terorist :laugh: just oppressed

I once read an article on reddit saying that Sp02 sensor Active 2 weaker than Watch 3 Therefore, Samsung has not enabled the Sp02 feature2
AFE4920 versus AFE4930
This is 1 reason why it not work on GWA2...
And remember ECG was disabled before Tizen 4.0.0.8 Firmwares...
Sams.ng spend enough time to crippled/block/kastriert/removed/disabled Driver Support...
Only as tiny info...
Best regards
