I already have the Rom 156. now, and i can't find any app that can call.
I also tried calling the number of my sim in the xoom and it is ringing(in the phone i used)... yet the xoom(device) is not ringing and is not registering that i am calling to that number...
Is there a possibility that Xoom mz601 can call or receive calls?

No; afaik the xoom doesn't have the required hardware to make or receive phone calls. You can send and receive sms messages though.

You can make calls via third party apps like textplus at the playstore...
I have a new Samsung Galaxy S6, running 5.1.1. For a week, incoming and outgoing text messages have been registering correctly in the call log. As of today, texts are no longer registering in the call log (but they appear in the message log) and no previous texts are listed. I have spent quite a bit of time looking online for an answer - no luck. I would appreciate any help.
Best and thanks,

Thanks, but that did not work. Any other suggestions?
Try a full reset. Your problem may also be due to a rougue app. I hope this helps.
Nope, still did not work. Still not recording incoming or outgoing text messages in the call log.
Surely a 'call log' is for calls, therefore SMS messages aren't included?

I would agree but the oddity is that text messages were included in the call log (the log indicated that the contact was an SMS) for about a week and then they disappeared. I would like to restore that function.
Text not recorded in call log
Hello Ubi100,
I am glad I found this thread. I have owned a GS6 edge for exactly 3 days just because of this problem. I am a "veteran" user of the galaxy s line and the GS6 is the first one that does not show text messages in the call log. My GS6 edge running 5.1.1 did not show at any time sms in call log. I have also installed 3rd party apps for call log and it did not help. The GS4 and GS5 running Lolipop have no issue with this and they show text messages in call log , so I don't think that the software version is the problem. So please tell me that you found a way to fix this issue.
Thanks

Hi Forum_user,
Alas to no avail. I have spent a great deal of time online looking for the solution to this problem. I have never found anyone who has a direct answer to this exact situation. I have followed everyone's general suggestions but still no luck. No record of text messages in the call log.
The only thing that I can guess is that my phone was delivered with Lollipop 5.0.2 on it. With that version, the text messages showed in the call log. When I upgraded to Lollipop 5.1.1, the text messages disappeared from the log.
I would appreciate it if you could let me know if you find anything else out.
Thanks,
ubi100
Same problem. I think it is extremely convenient to hva both the cal and the SMS log in one list. I often answer calls with a SMS and vice versa. With a combined list as it was before I had god control whom I answered and whom not. If somebody has a solution to the problem I would be thankful.
Did anybody ever find a way to fix this? I'm dealing with the same thing on my gs6. It showed for about a week in the call log and now it doesn't. And I can't find anything online about what to do.
Yes. I too am a long time user of the galaxy series. Until the s5 the call log and message log was unified. Which does not seem to the case in s7. The new scheme is not convenient and is a feature downgrade in my view.
It's exactly the same on the S7, A royal pain & a massive step in the WRONG direction, even if they add it back in as 'activity log'
I use my S7 and miss the combined message/call log alot I stumbled in here seeking a solution. Hopefully a future upgrade will bring it back!
Some question I wish to know as I'm planning to buy Gear S3 Frontier in the future.
For example, I'm using Huawei Mate 9.
1. I'm confused in people saying making call and receiving SMS don't work, and some say work, exactly which one is true? Is it that you can accept call but can't start call from the watch?
2. Any one that uses What's App, Wechat, Hangout, specially Facebook Messenger etc, are you able to do reply to these apps(like in notification area)? Like not only the quick message, to be able to type manually on watch and reply (Voice or Keyboard)?
3.In relation to question 2, how well it work with remote connection?
Thanks.
I have a Pixel and a Pixel XL. I can initiate and answer calls fine on my non-LTE S3. I can start and respond to messages as well. I haven't tried the other apps you mentioned.
I'm on a htc 10, lineage OS and I'm unable to initiate calls or send SMS with s voice
I have HTC ONE M8, answer to both of your questions is yes it's working fine, connected via Bluetooth, phone calls sms replying as well as initiate call or sms. WhatsApp and other can receive and reply but cannot initiate new message.
(Didn't tested when connected to same WiFi network.)

Ah that's good to know. As for what's app or facebook messenger. Reply is all I need. Hardly initiate message on watch.
Thanks guys. Good to know it's working well with other phone.
Two more things I wish to know.
1. If I accepted a call with watch, can I redirect it to phone directly on watch or I have to manually go to phone and choose to not use Bluetooth in that caller screen?
2. If I have a Bluetooth headset connected to my phone for example. I answer call using watch but can the call go through headset instead? What if i accepted the call using the Bluetooth headset button instead of watch. Will the audio re route properly?
Thanks

I am using Xperia Z5 initiate calls works fine from watch by finding contact and tapping phone icon on watch, using s-voice its very hit and miss. Can initiate texts from watch by going to contact and tapping the envelope button, initiating texts with s-voice requires samsung phone ('send text message to xxxx' gives 'sms service is unavailable) can reply to texts, etc but only while notification is present, after notification cleared have to start from scratch. Its all pretty poor overall tbh.

Can't help enough as not tested in detail.
In Bluetooth settings headset gives both options for phone audio and music
But watch gives only phone audio (so music sound can't come from watch, only music control possible)
And
If I select phone and music both for Bluetooth headset, then watch disconnect by itself as it wants phone audio.

The way notifications reply work seems similar to my pebble. Except I can't type manually on pebble. Thanks for info

You can use on screen KB, handwriting recognition (us english only), smileys, canned response or s-voice to reply.

Btw. When you set the reminder, are you able to set for example. Today February 1. And I wish to remind myself to buy something on February 3. Can I do that? I hear it's strictly within the day only.
How many languages to the watch support tho? Does it support Japanese by any chance?
Does it have auto brightness?
I can say now that I went back to full stock rom, everything is working fine now. I can make and answer calls. I wished someone had told me earlier. I been calling Samsung support for days and they havent been anymore useful then the manual, telling me I needed the lte model to answer calls
On my mate 9, I can Not make a call through the watch neither reply to message text... Things I was able to do with my S6.
Probably due to emui and his special dialer.
But I can read SMS and email anyway

Oh Dang. The inability to make a call due to mate 9 might be deal breaker. Are you able to view incoming caller name/number and accept call? Had you try third party dailer to see if it work? Since you have mate 9 and gear s3. Are the reply options from notification work? Like manually type or hand writing reply incoming What's app, hangout and Facebook messenger. And also, do the music player remote control work with stock music player? Do it display the current track playing properly?
Thanks
Just to be clear, there are two versions of the Frontier, one has an LTE radio. The LTE model is able to handle calls, texts, and run apps like Spotify without being connected to a phone. The BT model must be tethered to a phone in order to do these functions. Both models need to be connected (via BT or cellular) to a phone in order for notifications (ie. Hangouts, email) to pass through.

I know this question was from weeks ago but as I also have a S3 with a Mate 9, maybe I can help a little bit:
Everything works, including getting all notifications and asnwering them from the watch, and making and receiving calls in the watch. I have the S3 BT only model. My Mate 9 is with stock rom. Samsung Gear Manager working perfectly.
I have just one issue: sometimes, when I make a call using the phone, the call is automatically routed to the watch, without my permission, and it seems there is not any configuration or parameter to force all calls to not be routed to the watch. Of course it is easy to bring the call back to the phone (using the BT button in the dial), but as I initiated the call from the phone, it should not be redirected to the watch at the beginning. And this is something that happens eventually, not allways. It seems to be some kind of bug. I read about the same issue in other threads (S3 with other non-Samsung phones) here in XDA but could not find a definitive solution yet. If somebody can help on this, I would appreciate.

I'm using a Pixel XL as well and I'm planning to buy one. What limitations do you encounter when pair to the Pixel? Samsung Pay is also one of my reasons to buy this. Is it fully functional?
UPDATE:
Samsung Pay fully functional. But there are limitations if you use Gear S3 with non Samsung phone and BT headset (mine is Level U Pro ANC).
1. Call profile could only be activated either on the watch or level u pro, but not both simultaneously. If you choose to keep call profile on BT headset, you can use the headset for calling, but you cannot initiate call or answer call from watch. If you choose to keep call profile on watch, you cannot use BT headset for calling. That's also the case with car BT.
2. You can receive and reply to SMS on watch. But initiating SMS is a different story. No built in SMS so on watch so you can use watchface with messages shortcut to initiate sms, BUT all sms you initiate thru the watch WILL NOT REFLECT on the sms thread on the phone itself (Android Messages).
3. You cannot see your SMS history as well.
Hi guys, when someone is calling me on my new Huawei Watch GT 3 on WhatsApp, first it appears a quick notification screen with the contact name and whatsapp logo on top, and under it it says incoming voice call, but after one second that screen switches to another one where it says Unknown number and I have the option to reject or answer the call. How can I fix this issue? I want that when somebody is calling me on WhatsApp to be able to see the name of the contact on the watch too and not just "Unknown number". On normal calls it's good without problems. Thank you!
I have the same issue but no idea how to fix it.
It is working perfectly only if the watch is paired with an....IPhone.
I have same issue
I am having the same issue with amazfit and huawei GTR 3. Is it related to Samsung phones? I am using Samsung S23 Ultra with my watches.
