How can I access the heart rate sensor on my galaxy s5 using the standard apis?

Starting from How to access Galaxy S5 heart rate sensor? I tried to access the S5 heart rate monitor via android API (not Samsung health APIs)

This other example, for samsung wear, https://gist.github.com/gabrielemariotti/d23bfe583e900a4f9276 does not work on S5.

In the meanwhile I listed all the available sensors on the S5 via code and found two interesting ones:

65561 MAX86900
65562 HRM Sensor

The S5 BOM says:

Biosensor (heart rate) – MFG: MAXIM INTEGRATED PRODUCTS INC – MPN: MAX86900 –

Using 65561 as sensor ID I get some data (and it changes if I move my finger over the sensor).

Using 65562 I cannot get call to the callback.

The other sensors I found:

    1 MPU6500 Acceleration Sensor
    2 AK09911C Magnetic field Sensor
   14 AK09911C Magnetic Sensor UnCalibrated
    4 MPU6500 Gyroscope Sensor
   16 MPU6500 Uncalibrated Gyroscope Sensor
    8  TMG399X Proximity Sensor
    5 TMG399X RGB Sensor
   11 MPL Rotation Vector
   15 MPL Game Rotation Vector 
   18 SAMSUNG Step Detector Sensor
   19 SAMSUNG Step Counter Sensor
   17 SAMSUNG Significant Motion Sensor
65558 Screen Orientation Sensor
    3 Orientation Sensor
    9 Gravity Sensor
   10 Linear Acceleration Sensor

So, is there a way to access the heart rate monitor of the Galaxy S5 using only the standard APIs?
