Connecting Gear 360 to Galaxy Tab S4

[Brew Swayne]

Hi guys. Wondering if anyone has successfully connected a Gear 360 to a Galaxy Tab S4?

For some dumb reason, the Gear 360 app isn't even compatible with the Tab S4, so I loaded the .apk from the app on my phone. The app installed and opens up just fine on my tablet. I was able to easily pair the camera to my tablet via bluetooth. But in the app, when it's time to actually connect to the camera, it keeps failing. Very annoying. Would love to be able to review camera footage and edit the videos on the much larger tablet screen. Any ideas?

welcome to AF!!!!!!!!!!!

well i found this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/mod-samsung-gear-360-manager-device-t3400383

let us know if that works or not

Nope, no luck. Does exactly the same as my own .apk that I tried....pairs just fine, but won't actually connect to the camera.

The search continues....

well that's a bummer. that is the only thing i could find that's out there. maybe get a different device?

Lol...nah, I'm not buying a new device just to use this goofy little camera. I'll just keep using the camera with my phone. I've got a Note 8 and it works just fine with that, I was just hoping to take advantage of the larger tablet screen for reviewing and editing the videos.
