Cannot change "Standalone" to "Integrated"

For the Round 2, our app DrinkMinder (which will change its name to WaterWatch because of new exciting features other than reminding) changes its type from Standalone (wgt only) to Integrated (wgt inside apk)

When I about to submit it to Samsung Seller office, I cannot change the "Gear App Type"

[Disabled] Integrated [Disabled] Linked (Follower) [Selected] Standalone

Please help, since we are nearing the deadline.

Thank you.

    Note: this is about how to submit the app to the SAMSUNG SELLER SITE.
    Changing app type is allowed for the competition, but what I don't know is how to update it to the SAMSUNG SELLER SITE, since it is disallowed. Do I need to submit the app update as a new app on the SAMSUNG SELLER SITE?

    Hi yukuku and gear2apps,

    Thank you for your questions. I’m sorry to hear that you’re having trouble! For information on configuring Gear apps with a host-side provider, please refer to page 14 of the Programming Guide (http://img-developer.samsung.com/contents/cmm/Samsung_Gear_Application_Programming_Guide_1.0.pdf).

    The guide states:

    “If you want to make a host‐side provider for a wearable‐side widget, you must provide Android manifest.xml.

    
To register your application with Gear Manager, add "com.samsung.wmanager.APP" to the uses‐permission (highlighted in yellow) element of the host‐side application’s Android manifest file.

    If your application is a Linked (Master‐Follower) application, add the master app information using metadata tags (highlighted in green) to the AndroidManifest.xml. Gear Manager uses this information to notify users if the master application is absent or is later uninstalled from the Host.”

    If you have further questions about development, please feel free to post them on the Samsung Developers Forum: http://developer.samsung.com/forum/en

    Best,
    Serena

    Hi Serena

    The problem is not with the development. It is with Submission to the Samsung Seller Office. Please check the screenshot link that I sent.

    Hi yukuku,

    Thanks for that information. If you haven't already, please post your question to the Samsung GALAXY Apps Seller Office Support (http://help.content.samsung.com/csseller/main/main.do).

    Best,

    It seems that I need to submit my app as a new app at the Samsung Seller Office. It will have a different Content ID. Should I unpublish the existing (Round 1 winner) app when the new app is approved, or just leave it as is?

    Hi yukuku,

    There is no rule saying you need to unpublish your previous version - that is up to you. Having a new content ID is allowed. Please be sure to include it in your challenge submission by September 30th, 2014 at 5pm ET.

    Good luck!
    Serena

    Yukuku, be aware that if you submit your integrated app now, there's an excellent chance that it won't have passed certification in time for the Round 2 deadline. On that basis, I would strongly advise that you do NOT delete your Round 1 app, so that you will still have *something* to submit to Round 2.
