#2017 gear 360 actiondirector serial#
It was responsible for verifying users serial numbers. As I mentioned before the resource "/keydownload/c2" does not exist on samsungs server. Now if this were the only problem I give everyone a fix for this, however, There have been more failings on samsungs side. The request made by the app can be seen to generate a response when the host is altered to reflect this. The app tries to request from and there is only a record for. This is due to there being no DNS record on samsungs authoritative nameserver for the host that the app was told to look for. As shown in the screen shots below which shows the failed request made by the app at the top and the successful one made by a web browser to the same resource.įailed request by app and successful request from browser showing non existance of validation app on samsungs server Unfortunately the response I recieve back from the samsung key server lets me know that the application that they SHOULD be running to give people their keys, Does not exist. Well the request that is generated by the gear360 does not recieve any kind of response where as a request sent to the same resource (/keydownload/c2) from a web browser does recieve a request. This means the domain was bought in November 2008 and Samsung actively maintained their ownership of the domain again in October 2017.

The domain registration was last updated on. Looking at the whois information that was provided when the domain was bought, It was registered by "Samsung Electronics CO., Ltd" on. This request is sent to If you try to visit it you will find that the domain does exist but your browser dows not display anything. POST /keydownload/c2?device_num=SERIAL HTTP/1.1 Gear 360 sends out the following request to samsung when you enter a serial - The text "SERIAL" is a place holder for my or your actual serial. If you don't like or get technical jargon feel free to skip to the summary - in short you're doing nothing wrong and it's all samsungs fault. The gear 360 application takes your serial and checks it with samsung, Or rather it tries.
