Hello All,
Im hoping I can get some assistance with connecting my Samsung Gear 2 Neo with my phone. I am running Liquid Smooth 4.4.4 and I can get it paired to the phone and even get the phone calls to come thru on the watch, but I cannot get them to connect so the watch is stuck on the screen that explains how to connect the watch to the phone. Are there any tricks, tips, or anything I need to know to use a smart watch with this phone?

Just got my Note Edge yesterday and I love it. But I can't get it to work with my Gear S watch? Very frustrating and I can't figure it out unless they just aren't compatible. Can anyone help?
I have a Note Edge paired with the Gear S that works great. I can use the Gear S via Bluetooth or cell. When you said that you just got the Edge, it makes me think that this Gear was set up with another phone prior to the Edge. If so, you'd have to factory reset the Gear.
My Gear Neo 2 is really finicky with the Edge. I think it is the flakey bluetooth on the entire Note 4 line. Every once in a while (maybe twice a week or more), I have to restart the watch to get it to talk to the phone again. I am totally awaiting the official Lollipop update for my Verizon variant as there are a large number of bluetooth changes in it. I am getting a bit concerned that Lollipop doesn't appear to be on the immediate radar for Verizon now that the S6 is out there
Anyway, I would try and factory reset the watch and start the connection process over. A bit inconvenient but I bet it will work.
i've got both and they're work very well. the bluetooth connection is stable and the reconnection after a disconnect is very fast. i see no trouble

Hello All,
I recently purchased a Samsung Gear 2 running Tizen R380XXU0BOA2 and am using a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 running Android 5.0 and running Gear Manager version 2.2.03.16033141N with Gear Plug In version 2.2.03.16033141N
A full charge of the phone can last 2- 2.5 days with medium use and not connected to the phone. A full charge of the watch can easily last 3-4 day when not connected to the phone.
However, when I connect the watch to the phone using BT, I can only get 8 hours or so from either device. Both end up with less than 5% battery life after both sitting there overnight and not being used, but connected via BT
From what I been reading in the forums, this is not the norm.
Does anyone have any idea what I can do to remedy this?
Or is there another program out there like Gear Manager that may connect differently to BT and the Gear 2?
Thanks,
Also....FYI, neither phone nor the watch is rooted.
Well, I found out that Gear Manager version 2.0.14042803 is much easier on my phone and gear 2.... Only issue appears to be that if I go out of range, I get the message BT is disconnected. And when I get back in range the phone does not connect automatically.
I simply set the Gear Manager app not too look for updates, and when it advised me there is an update I am able to cancel it and it stays at the same version.
Hello…
I know it' isn't an Android phone : ) any help will be appreciated…I have an S3 connected to my iPhone but then when I open the gear app it’s isn’t detecting it? Attached SC
*iPhone, gear app and S3 are all up to date
Thanks
Reset the watch for new phone (in watch setting), erase BT connection in phone totally close the Gear app on phone and retry.
Just put my Gear S2 from my Galaxy S5 to my iPhone SE.
I have done that already and it seems okay for now, will the S3 drain it's battery more with iPhones vs Android because I turn off bunsh of stuff like HR, GPS...etc and I may make it 1 day with a single charge? I see other only are getting 2-3days with a single charge
Thanks
Hi,
Is there anything I need to worry about saving from the built-in apps on the Gear S3 before I trade it in, or is everything on my connected phone?
Thanks!!
My aunt is nearly 70 and prefer to use a tablet with her buds instead of a phone. Recently she got a watch 5 as a gift. But we get a message this type of accessory is not compatible or allowed when attempting to pair with Galaxy wearables app. I beg to know why from Samsung ? Is there a lack of hardware or can they please bring out an update to fix this ?
