Samsung Gear Watch stuck on "finishing pairing" Simple Fix (Try before you resetting your phone)

Ғылым және технология

This might be a simple fix for your Samsung Gear watch if you have tried resetting your watch resetting your phone and clearing cache data and all of that but none of it worked. This could be the simplest fix you could try.
Do note that this does not require clearing any cache data or resetting the phone or uninstalling and re-installing any apps.
This worked for me and some people but it might not be the same problem for you in which case, it would not solve your problem pairing if you're having issues but it's worth a try to rule it out before you start with resetting your phone and watch, etc

    Trust me. THEY ALL SUCK! Not an apple fan but all this Android crap is getting on my nerve! 😡 Google has problems ppl have been complaining about for years. THERE HAS BEEN ZERO ACKNOWLEDGEMENT FROM THEM! Apple is not without sin, but I think they are more responsible. I'm the only Android user in the house. I'm strongly considering making that dreaded leap I swore to NEVER make.

    I think when it comes to device choice, you cannot afford to make emotional decision. The devides you choose must serve you at the end of the day. For many people, this will differ and while android would be perfect for one person, Apple would better suit another. So you really must look at what your needs are and make the decision based on that alone. Don't care about the company if it doesn't serve your needs because trust me, they do not care about you.

    I have the same problem, and thankfully resolved following your method. Samsung makes great hardware, but lousy software. My phone is paired to many other devices such as my car, my headset etc, and never had such problems unlike my S3 Frontier. It cannot be separated from my iPhone else it would either disconnect and unable to reconnect again (time to reset!) or it will reconnect (80% of the time).

    @Fylosofy I have a Galaxy Watch3 and a Galaxy S20 +5G. I had a Galaxy S9+ that paired perfectly with the watch. I have done all your steps several time along with suggestions to clear cache (as others in this thread have mentioned) in Galaxy Wearables and deleting all my bluetoothed connected items (as a referenced link in this thread advise). Still no luck. I can't believe how difficult it is to pair the same manufacturers devices. Any suggestions on next steps?

    For Samsung S21 Ultra 5G users. I finally figured it out! Months without using my watch was so ready to give up. While it was stuck pairing I unpaired the blue tooth, went to my watch which showed the disconnection, was able to scroll down and found a "?". I pressed that and I was able to get through settings of the watch and I RESET it. Boom, watch started up, pairing began and with a few seconds it was done. Holy shit finally. Apparently watch can pair to new phone but the watch doesn't like the "old phone" stuff on it. Must be reset.
