I have a bluetooth headset for calls and music, and previously I used to pair it to the phone. Now I cannot do that because the Gear 2 needs to phone pairing, so I have paired the headset as media to the phone and then paired the headset to the watch.
However, when the call comes in, it doesn't direct it to the headset... does anyone know if this is possible?
My Gear 2 is connected to phone audio and my head set is connected to phone and media audio. When a call comes in is answered with the phone is goes to my bluetooth headset. If answered with the gear 2 i can push the bluetooth symbol that shows on the watch and it transfers to my bluetooth headset. This is with a Note 3 stock.

I am using GPE, so non Samsung TW. If I try and pair my headset to Phone and Media, the Gear 2 disconnects from bluetooth
There is an option to pair the headset to the watch, but that doesn't seem to do anything either
/Edit: I have the LG Tone HBS-730 if that helps and the S4.

Hi Guys,
I want to turn off phone audio on my watch so that it and my Sena Bluetooth don't argue with each other - pairing "through" the watch doesn't resolve it either. Problem is, if I turn off Phone Audio in Bluetooth settings on my S5, it disconnects the watch entirely. Any way to turn off phone audio and still keep notifications and apps connection?
Thanks!
Have you tried the notification settings in gear manager. Or gear turning them off. Limiting . Relaying etc
I don't have any conflict with my Gear 2 and Plantronics Voyager Pro. Whichever one I initiate or answer a call with doesn't affect the other. Did you happen to pair your headset with your watch? If so, that might be the problem. Mine are only paired to my phone.
Thanks guys!
I stumbled across the answer. It turns out that I had to remove the pairing with my Sena and then repair (after the watch). The Sena appears to now have full phone audio.
Hi there !
There is a way to set my Gear S3 Classic to default call and answer on my bluetooth headset when my bluetooth headset is connected to my phone ? Now every time when I make a call I have to choose and select from watch, those three dots from right and choose bluetooth headset instead phone which apparently is set to default ! In my older Gear S2 Classic when the bluetooth headset is connected all sounds and calls is redirected to the headset not phone !
Thanks !
I have the same problem with OnePlus 3T + bluetooth headset
any idea to solve it????
Hello,
I am having an issue with BT connection- I do not want take calls via BT on the watch but I still want to receive notifications (via BT). I connect to BT normally, and I go to settings, BT, and unselect "call audio" because I have a headset I use, but the watch disconnects completely from BT and the watch is now in standalone mode and does not receive notifications. So, how can I be connected to BT but NOT take calls on the watch? Any ideas?
I have my watch and my plantronics bluetooth paired to my S7 and what I do is when I get a call is see who calls me on the watch then I answer it with the my bluetooth. Only thing that kind of suck is when I have call waiting and it doesn't show on the watch.
Does it ever show call waiting if you're connected via bluetooth?
It doesn't show on the watch but you will hear a beep tone on the Bluetooth headset. Well at least on my Bluetooth it does.
CAn you connect the watch over wifi to the phone? Tot est, turn off bluetooth on the watch and see if it will connect via wifi - this might solve the issue
As a new S3 classic owner, after coming from a Moto 360, I have a ton of questions. Probably the most important one is this:
I'm used to using the watch to say "call {john smith}", and have the phone place the call. BUT, is there a way to NOT route the call audio through the watch speaker? I wear hearing aids that are also bluetooth headsets and that's where I'd like to route the audio unless I'm driving, in that case use the car. I have a S7 edge and while there are settings for my headset and car for call and media audio, there is not for the gear s3. Is there an setting somewhere to allow me to place calls with the watch and have the call audio routed to my headset (or car)?
Or is the answer to return it and get an android wear watch? I'm still within the 14 day window at best buy. I like the hardware features of this watch, but Tizen is making me a little crazy because I'm so used to the ease of android.
Thanks for any information.

Maybe Settings > Connections > Bluetooth > BT Headset?
Sent from my HTC 10 using XDA Labs
The key in my OP is that there are settings for the headset and car in bluetooth connections for call and media audio, but the only choice under the gear s3 in bluetooth is to disconnect, which disconnects everything. That means I CAN"T say 'call {whoever}' and have my phone make a call.
I know it sounds pointless, but still sounds neat and probably has its uses somewhere.
I want to connect my Bluetooth headphones to GW4 and re-route my Redmi 11i Phone's audio to the GW4 so that both audio outputs can be heard by one Bluetooth headphone.
Cause when I have connected my Bluetooth headphones to my phone and make a call from GW4, it will direct call audio to the watch (as the call was made from the watch), and when I switch audio from WATCH interface it will switch the call audio output to PHONE SPEAKER and Not the BLUETOOTH HEADPHONES I have connected to the phone unless I change that from the Phone itself.
So basically to avoid using the phone to make a call, I need my headphone connected to GW4 to get all the media/call audio into my Bluetooth Headphones. And the watch needs a Bluetooth speaker connected to play YouTube music ONLINE.
So ONE BLUETOOTH HEADPHONES = PHONE's + WATCH's Call/Media audio outputs heard.
You gotta hand it to me for thinking this. Please provide some solution. So I just an app to direct my phone's media (General audio) output to my Google watch 4 and I will connect my Bluetooth Speaker to the watch. I can accept ROOT solutions too, I'll just ROOT my phone IDC.
I have a Samsung Galaxy Watch4 and a Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra. I use Bose Buds and if I am listening to music from my phone and make a call initiated from my watch, it DOES go to the buds. Not sure if this is an issue with your phone or just the settings, but mine work as you would like.
