[@Motorhead__]

You're such a saviour. The fact that you made this whole process even smoother conpared to what it used to be earlier with the companion makes me appreciate your efforts more. Thanks a lot my dude

[@fawzi199910]

Very true this man is a genius samsung should hire him

[@mostafaahmed3199]

Can l do it by just phone?

[@scottgraham5543]

Thank you DANTE63 for your tireless efforts and continual support of your SHM program & companion app! You are very much appreciated and help in the community is awesome. I have used your programs since the Galaxy Watch3.Your videos and instructions are spot on!

[@bdmdrp]

Wow! This was a great tutorial, and I would really like to thank you for not only making the mod but for recording the processing in this video. I really cannot explain to you how much I appreciate this.

[@marklorden1]

Hey Dante. After numerous attempts at activating BP and ECG functions on my Samsung Watch Pro 5 using other KZbin videos, I came across your video and finally got it done! Many thanks for developing this tool to enable these functions on my Watch 5 Pro. Unlike other videos that involved downloading dubious apps, etc, your video instructions were clear and concise and all necessary downloads were linked and actually worked! Again, thanks for providing and maintaining this service!

[@sujoysengupta2734]

Fantastic apps and an elaborate, easy to follow tutorial. Good job, mate. Never fumbled through any of the steps and got the tiles enabled within 15-20 minutes (I did pause and rewind here and there).

[@mohamedabid1544]

Thank you Dante It looks like a lot to do, but the video and your explanation step by step made it so easy. Honestly one of the best tutorials on youtube. SMH was geolocked and now i can use my watch to it's full capacity

[@TheDeLeG3nD]

Can't thank you enough for this tutorial, and quite frankly I accidentally stumbled upon this video. Wouldn't have known that I can measure ECG and blood pressure with my GW6 Classic, since they're region locked features... Thanks again, works flawlessly!

[@nbernaz]

WOW thank you for doing this for us. It works a charm if you follow the instructions to the letter. The only slight issue that I had was at wireless debug connection time as I made a note of the com port, but it changed it at pairing time. Be very careful about the port diplayed on the watch just below the connection code. Apart from this, absolutely fab.

[@Sir.Charles.]

Thanks for the additional video guide! Very concise and easy to follow the steps.

[@ashaasha3117]

Thanks a ton for this. This tutorial reminds me of my maths teacher of grade 10 who made things like so simple. I wish i had enough spare money to support the work and for your incredible efforts. Cheers mate.

[@richardpirolt5625]

Thank you so much for the app and the tutorial plus transcript (I really needed the multi-mode explanation to get things going). Just great!

[@josiahstearns9615]

Followed this step by step, word for word, and it work flawlessly. Thanks, man!!! And for others reading, my configuration is a Galaxy Watch 6 Classic paired to a OnePlus 12.

[@indecisions99]

Thank you very much for the update, was as easy to follow your instructions as the first time !

[@sae4842]

I got the galaxy watch 6 working on the Oneplus 8t. Followed the written instructions without hiccups. I bought the watch without realising it was missing the feature. I was sceptical to do this but it worked well. Thanks!

[@LethargicSquirrel]

Massive thanks for creating this video, and specifically reiterating that a person may need to restart their devices in order for a successful WiFi Debugging Pairing. I couldn't for the life of me get it to work, so I looked up this video, and when you mentioned restarting them, I did just that-and the two paired just fine immediately afterward! I'm going to look into how much a standard BP cuff and stethoscope cost. Might get my own set, or may just rely on the doctor's office for calibration. We'll see. Thank you again! (And damn Samsung for restricting a potentially life-saving feature to those who buy their phones! That was really a d-bag move on their part.)

[@adamszendi452]

Works on Redmi Note 10Pro + Galaxy Watch 5Pro combo. Nice tutorial with clear instructions, I really appreciate the great work you've done. Thanks a lot!

[@udayu6208]

Thanks a ton. The way you have made the video made it so simple to execute. Can't thank you enough.

[@csm1813]

Thank you, again. Things have changed since I did this on a prior phone so this video was essential. I needed to pause and rewind a lot but I got it done on my tracfone Samsung A53 phone. Skipped the hotspot stuff because I don't have one--worked fine on home wifi. Sent you a few coffees in appreciation!

[@matejmucska2569]

Huuuge thanks man, I was angry and disappointed as I didn't know that these functions are exclusive for SG before buying the watch and you totally saved the day...

[@kepasacolegui9732]

After many attempts with videos from USLESS, who have no idea and copy your videos badly, I have finally managed to activate ECG-BP. THANK YOU SO MUCH

[@ronan_ie]

Thank you for all your hard work and ease of use in following the steps to enable ECG and BP on my samsung galaxy watch 6! It worked perfectly and saved me having to sell the watch or buy a compatable samsung phone! You are a HERO!! :-) - User from Ireland.

[@chandevabhayaratne9827]

Oh wow! Really good directions, spot on. Searched a lot to find this mod. I have hypertension and bought this watch for the measuring... like everyone else, didnt realise it was country specific. Im in Sri Lanka. Works great! Thank you so much!

[@minoth]

From SL too! All the credits to this absolute chad, Dante 🥳

[@Sharkwedge]

Followed the steps and everything worked flawless 😁 Have my Watch 5 pro synced properly to a Nothing phone 2 🥰 Ecg and everything else also works fine Thank you

[@DuskSlayerYT]

Thanks Dante. My friend just had two strokes. He bought the Samsung watch not knowing that it would not give him the atrial fibrillation alerts that he desperately needed. I set this up on his phone and works perfectly. Great job 😊

[@XDA-Dante63]

Please do make sure the IHRN is running from time to time, because Samsung introduced it recently, it's not fully stable and gets killed/suspended, when that happens, he needs to turn it off and on again... May he never ever get stroke...

[@DuskSlayerYT]

@@XDA-Dante63 HI Dante thanks for the advice. So to do that on the watch I just need to make sure the Samsung health monitor app (modded version) is running? Since the IHRN is part of that app?

[@XDA-Dante63]

@@DuskSlayerYT on the phone, ecg tab, you'll see IHRN last updated, if the date is old, the watch most likely stopped checking, so toggling off and on will make the watch start measurements again, I haven't checked the new version of shm mod for the watch, but I'm hoping they fixed it... And I should work on it this coming weekend if my health allows it, had a small setback...

[@DuskSlayerYT]

@@XDA-Dante63 Oh very sorry to hear that about your health. Please do take care. Thanks for the info I got it now.

[@DuskSlayerYT]

@@XDA-Dante63 just mentioning my friend that had the 2 strokes was amazed that someone was able to figure out something as complex as modding a Samsung watch and removing the country/age restrictions. Appreciate your time spent. God bless wish you good health also.

[@wyleyrabbit]

Fantastic job. So frustrating that Samsung prevents access to important health features if one doesn't have a genuine Samsung cell phone. Your work proves their insistence on having a Samsung phone is not a hardware requirement at all. Keep up the great work!

[@waikitlin]

Thank you so much, you're a life saver, I really appreciate the work you've done! Keep up the great work! Love it

[@SathyavageeswaranR]

You are simply AWESOME. People should learn from you on how to create 'How-to' vidoes! Thank you so much!

[@Wolf89b]

i was so close to buy samsung for my watch 6 but now it works AMAZING ON XIAOMI 11T PRO!! Thank you my friend! - ure a hero!

[@joelmorales388]

Thank you so much for this video!! I just got my watch and this was very helpful, I actually did this during work haha quick and easy to follow ❤

[@luissaraiva5175]

This tutorial save me! What a master you are, EvilDante! Ty so much!

[@emilienchang6833]

Merci pour ce noveau tuto, je l'ai suivi à la lettre, cela marche Nickel. Le TOP...

[@fyourpolitics]

Awesome, thank you so much, will send you some drinks via paypal soon! I Bought a watch4 because my BP is too high and found out that BP measurement is only supported with samsung phones. Found this great tool and this great guide - it took me just 20 minutes to fix the "unsupported" blood pressure on my pixel8 :) One thing I struggled with for a minute during the process: I had to turn off bluetooth before starting the wireless debugging, because while bluetooth is connected, the watch would turn of wlan...

[@gabrieltagarro9882]

Thanks a lot, you're great! Amazing tutorial, easy method. Working fine! Keep up the great work, please 🙌

[@DeepHouseX]

Thank you very much! Your help is highly appreciated! Keep up the great work!

[@maelc2430]

Thanks a lot for your video. I dont have a sg, and at first i didn't think i could find any solution to install this app. Your video is just perfect, thank you so much!

[@MrArmorcat]

Worked like a charm. You're the champ :) I will sent you a tab for a coffee later this week.

[@davidpaul768]

Thank you for the great video!! You explained everything in this video perfectly and made it so easy to follow...

[@Bandit26-wq1eb]

thanks friend ! Europe was not yet ready for Galaxy watch 5 Pro, now it works perfectly thanks to your help!

[@whodisnewphone]

Works on android 14 GS23Ultra 12/09/2023, Follow instructions (pretty easy) delete old versions of Samsung monitor from watch and phone as not to be confused. Also Fully scanned the apps and downloads in a secure sandbox and all is Safe and sound. Thanks so Much for the rott free MOD. love it

[@mattiasnord2309]

Thank u so much. Ur the best and im gonna give you a few coffee soon. Keep doing what you do. You saved me and my combo zenfone n Galaxy Watch 5 pro

[@hsy1133]

If there was a superlike, this is it. Thank you so much. Subscribed!

[@yancem1553]

Thank you so much, this worked on my watch 6 and Android 14 (pixel 7).

[@StewartMidwinter]

Thanks for this video and the detailed instructions. I installed your app on my phone and read through the detailed guide there as well. That was especially helpful as I could go back to it over and over again rather than rewinding the video. I could not get the phone to connect to the watch after several tries but then saw a tip somewhere else and turned off Bluetooth and that seemed to help. Mind you, I'm living with quadriplegia so I'm not very fast or accurate on entering port numbers etc. I now have blood pressure and ECG working on Motorola razr+ 2023 and Galaxy pro 5 in canada. 🇨🇦

[@XDA-Dante63]

You can use network discovery next time, you just need to enter pairing code, the rest the app will handle, and you just keep watch screen on...

[@mohdfahimabdrahman]

Can we used network discovery for 1st time set up? ​@@XDA-Dante63

[@jeedi]

You are a LEGEND! Thank you for this.

[@davin8r]

Thanks so much for all your hard work! Enjoy the coffee!

[@patrick03vargas]

This is an amazing video. I greatly appreciate you putting this together.

Great video, great companion app. I followed along and it worked flawlessly. Like and subscribed. I'll be checking out your other apps as well. Keep the amazing work sir!

[@user-eu4mq3pd4h]

Amazing!! I have no words... 😀😀😀😀 Very Happy. Thank you!!

Thanks mate, very easy to follow! Great job!

[@odellcrews7525]

Thank you very much! Now I can use the ECG and Blood Pressure feature even it is not available in my region. Thanks a lot Dante! 🙌

[@Ruoppo]

You are a legend mate, thank you so much and keep up the good work.

[@harshshah5147]

Thank you. I tried some other method, but that didn't work. This one worked very well.

Absolutamente incrível! Thanks from Brazil

[@aditya_on_youtube]

You're amazing! Not only did you create the modded app, but also the wonderful companion app. And now, you've even created one of the most detailed tutorials I've seen to date! Thank you! Also, which watch face do you use? Looks great!

[@bayoneye447]

God Bless you bruv, you are a real life saver

[@Damien1_1]

Hi Dante, I want to let you know that you are my hero for doing this for us. I just followed your shm mod youtube video on my galaxy 6 classic. I have now got both bp and ecg. Just one problem. I charged my watch to 100%, wore and went off to sleep. Within 1.5 hours the battery drained to 0 and the buzz woke me. I have again charged to 100%. Let's see what happens.

[@XDA-Dante63]

Rest assured, shm mod has nothing to do with the drain, make sure your adb and wireless debugging both are off

[@fruitycoconut]

when I saw all the post on Xda I was like 'wtf is this non sense' but watching the video made it cristal clear !

[@huihuang5871]

太感谢了，优秀的教程

[@meindroid]

Gracias, me fue perfecto para mi galaxy Watch 6

[@diegolara1050]

Thanks Dante!! Just a question, It´s possible to have a BP/ECG face in the watch? Now I am only available to see the recording measurements from the samsung health app on the phone.

[@XDA-Dante63]

Not sure what you mean by face... There is a tile for both and there is app shortcut...

[@Bob_Squared23]

Thank you so much for this!

[@the_wardaddy]

Thanks a lot for the mod and tutorial.

[@user-ml7fo1sc8z]

Thanks bro! U just made a useless watch useful bcuz of regional restrictions ❤❤

Thank you very much!

Thanks King

[@Sharkwedge]

Because i have heart rythm issues i got suggested to buy a capable wearable However i did not know the features are locked for non Samsung phones I hope i can get it to work with the 5 pro (got i used for cheap but still..) Thank you in advance for that tutorial,will report back :)

[@133has]

Hey Dante, thank you verry much for this. THis helps me decide to go for a samsung watch afteral! Can i ask wich tool you are using to get your phone screen on the PC you use? It seems you have wide screen mode instead of just a screen mirror. It looks nice!

[@XDA-Dante63]

It's Samsung Dex, Most new Samsung Phones are not equipped with it: www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00062657/

[@Matthie27]

perfect thank you for your work

[@mattwalsh25]

Fantastic thank you!

[@bautiii23]

Very great video, thank you for such good explanation and amazing job. Only one question, SHM MOD Companion app can be deleted or is it neccesary to make it work? THANKS

[@XDA-Dante63]

You'll need the companion for updates and future sideloading, it doesn't drain battery, but you can uninstall it, and check for updates manually by checking XDA or Telegram

[@AdalbertAlexandru]

God bless you man

sos un genioooo. gracias por tanto

[@vivekps1991]

Thank you so much❤❤❤❤

[@athmanouazzani9852]

Hi Dante, I loved the work you've done, it's impressively clear ! But I also have a big question : you seem to use a Galaxy Tab with Dex in the video, and it seems to connect to your watch. I've tried every possible way I could think of to connect my GW6 to my tablet (since I have an iPhone) and I just can't find a way to synchronize my watch to my tab, how did you do it ? Would you do a tutorial to connect a galaxy watch to a samsung tablet ? Thanks again for all the work you've done, you make the world a better place

[@XDA-Dante63]

I already mentioned in the video description, Samsung Dex and my phone screen, not a tablet... Tablet can never connect to watch, it is hard-coded condition by samsung to accept only mobile devices...

[@athmanouazzani9852]

@@XDA-Dante63 Thank you for your answer, I feel bad for buying this watch thinking it would work on iPhone or my tablet like the airpods work on any device, I think it's a shame tbh (I had a mi smart band and it worked perfectly fine on my iPhone)
