Hello,
Sorry for my bad english.
As i told in the title, my gear s2 is unable to reconnect BT after i turn it on-off on my phone (or after i reboot my phone).
Every time i shutdown bt or reboot phone, i have to partial-restore my gear s2 because samsung gear manager cant reconnect (it sent to me a little viber without connect).
Please, do you have any idea or trick for solve this problem?
Is there any way to "freeze" BT situation during phone restart? Maybe it could preserve my connection.
Thank you all.
And thanks samsung, stupid cheater (universal smartwatch, yeah! )
I solved with a trick, but when i move myself in another room and i lost BT connection, gear s2 wont auto reconnect to my phone :crying:
New problem: impossible to pair Samsung Gear S2 with my phone while Jabra headset is connecting to my phone.
samsung equal ****.

Hi all I having a problem with a number of Samsung Gear S2. After updating them to the latest firmware version from with the Gear S2 app the Bluetooth stops working?
I cannot connect it back to the phone I was using or another phone. Nor can any Bluetooth device see it.
I have tried to reboot the watch and phone as well as doing a factory reset on the watch. I turned the Bluetooth off and left for an hour but nothing I can get it back.
I can use the wifi mode to down grade the firmware to ver. R720XXU2AOJ3 then the Bluetooth come back to life?
Any know anything about this problem, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hello everyone,
I have a Gear S3 Frontier bluetooth only model, and I noticed that if go outside the bluetooth range (10-15m from the phone) after I come back within the bluetooth range, the watch doesn't reconnect automatically, and I must reconnect it manually from the Gear Manager app.
My phone is a Samsung S6 edge+, and until now I had a Garmin Vivoactive which didn't had this problem.
I found in the Gear S forum a similar problem, and one proposed solution was to unpair it and pair it again.
I tried that and it worked, the watch reconnected automatically 2-3 times, but after 30min-1 hour the problem appeared again.
Does anyone else has this problem ?
Thanks

I did yesterday, all I had to to was turn on airplane mode then turn it back off, reconnected in seconds.
I also had this problem. Since I switched off WLAN, Bluetooth reconnects automatically.
Try this

I had this problem and it was driving me nuts but did a hard reset of my watch and now everything is working ok.
It looks though I had something else competing with my watch and by unpairing the watch, doing a reset and then resetting up my watch, cleared whatever was causing the issue.
I have nearly the same problem with watchmaker App.
When the Bluetooth connection is disconnected because out of range and the BT is reconnected again, the watchmaker has problems to sync with gears s3.
No data like phone battery, etc .. . Also sending watchfaces over BT is not working anymore.
But with other apps (Samsung Gear App), BT is always working great.
To solve the problem, I have to switch off BT on the smartphone and enable again.
After that the sync between watchmaker and Gears S3 is working well again until reconnect.
I have informed the watchmaker developer, but until now, I have gotten no feedback.
Android 6.0.1
Watchmaker App: 4.8.2
Thats a very old version of WatchMaker.
Hi.
Just got my S8 and tried to pair it to my Gear S3. All goes fine and both stay connected until I disable the watch audio function in the S8 bluetooth options (to not conflict with my car handsfree system).
After that, they just disconnect and don't connect anymore.
Any help out there?
Thanks!
Choose connect to another phone. Gear watch will ask you to light reset, after that you can reconnect your device to the phone. All your downloaded apps will be deleted on gear watch, but you can reinstall them.
Hi everyone,
Could you guys answer me this: Is the Gear S3 supposed to disconnect the bluetooth connection to my phone every 2 minutes or so? I can't get it to stay connected no matter what i try. I need to reboot my phone everyday because if i don't.. it won't connect at all.
After the reboot everything seems good and i can connect the gear through the Gear app. it only keeps disconnecting every 2 minutes... I've contacted Samsung about this and they told me that the bluetooth version on my phone was insufficient. They suggested i upgraded my phone from an Oneplus one to a Galaxy S8. I bought a Oneplus 5T instead but the problem remains. After i contacted Samsung for a second time they told me that's its probably a hardware related issue. Sounds unlikely to me since rebooting the phone allows me to connect to the watch.
Anyone having the same problem?
anyone?
no problems here, using oneplus 3T (so not the 5T) (On beta OS: A3003_28_180112) and gear s3 frontier on 3.0.1

Hmm ok. I think it's really weird i need to restart my phone every morning in order to connect to the phone.. Makes no sense
I am experiencing a similar issue with my 5T and Gear S3. Sometimes all the system sound (not multimedia ones though) are being routed to the ear speaker instead of the multimedia speaker. I missed an alarm several times. The fix for me is the same - to toggle BT connection with Gear S3.
I have lockscreen sounds enabled. So, I realize the issue reproduces when the lockscreen sound starts to be very quite and is being emitted via the ear speaker.
Another issue with the Gear S3 I am experiencing is as follows. If I start Google Play Music on my phone, Gear S3 does not see the player is started. Anyway I can start the player from the watch. Also, if I toggle the BT, everything works perfectly. Could you check this on your side as well?
I had a similar situation, the Gear S3 was disconnecting very often. In the end, I found that it was the battery saving settings on my N8 Sirocco that killed the connection to my Gear S3. I turned settings and blacklist off, and now it stays connected.
Hi, just bought the galaxy watch4, I can pair it with galaxy active tab 3 but wearable app gives error, I've read around that samsung tablet doesn't permit to connect to a samsung watch, it's abosolutely redicolous! How could I fix this problem?
Thanks
You can't pair the watch with the tablet, but if you want to use the watch without pairing it with the phone, you can hold press the galaxy wearable icon as shown on the video:
thank s for your kind answer, I don't understand the meaning of this video, it seams a way to skip the pair process present at beginning to use the watch. But I need werable app working on phone to receive notificationsm manage calls and so on. The werable app don't want to pair when is installed on tablets, that's amazing but true.
Maybe I can pair somehow, but to receive just datas about blood pressure and so on, useless.
As I know, the only way left is to hack phone and change its ID, so the app will believe it's a phone and it will work.
Samsung support is horrible, they just joke you, they promise they understood the problem and fix it soon, to reply within 24h, all bull*ts
Con somebody please tell me if I can buy a watch from another brand and have it working on this Galaxy tablet? Maybe through Google Waer OS app? Thank you for your kind answer
