I cannot seem to get the search to work and cannot find any threads searching manually.
My watch has started logging into local WiFi every time I wake it up even when it has a Bluetooth connection to my phone.
I was expecting it to only use WiFi when no Bluetooth was available. It seems to have started doing this recently and I seem to remember an update not too long ago.
Anyone else with this issue.
Yes it should as you have described. With my S7 it behaves like this. May be it's your phone losing or power saving Bluetooth signal. Which phone are you using?

It should work fine then . The only solution i can think of is to factory reset the watch and try again.

Factory reset rather than a restart

Would anyone know why my WIFI works perfect when Bluetooth is not on, then WIFI gets authentication errors when Bluetooth is turned on? Soon as I turn off Bluetooth WIFI works again when I reconnect to network. Thanks.
I've not noticed anything on mine. Have you done anything to it such as root/unlock/cwm/ROM?
Its unlocked, with CWM and doubleshot 1.5, but unfortunately I cant remember if it was doing it when it was stock.
Have you tried factory reset? Even reflashing the ROM? I just tested it on mine and it works fine. If not, you may have some bad hardware.
I just tested BT and Wifi on mine with 0 issues. Paired it with my s3 with wifi browsing a few websites and it didn't break.
Tried reflashing, ended up returning it. Thanks for quick reply and help. New one works perfect.
I messed up and didn't unlock the boot loader... Should I wait for stock firm ware or take it back to Verizon... And if so what should I say

I'm having trouble with my WiFi at home. When connected I can browse the web just fine with any browser (Chrome, Browser). However, when trying to use an app that needs the internet it refuses to connect and I have to use mobile data. Im not sure if this is a problem with my phone or my router. Anyone have any ideas?
My phone is running CM 10.1.3 on a Verizon SIII with no additional kernels (I do need one with fast charge however).
Could my AdBlock Plus maybe be causing the issue since it goes through a proxy?
Well a little update.
I disabled ABP and the problem still persists. This is really annoying and I have no other ideas.

Still no solutions or ideas?

Uninstall adblock plus then enabled WiFi hit th menue button and then uncheck optimize WiFi on battery and for adblocking use adaway

Tried those just now and of course my WiFi is down at the moment. Will post as soon as I can test it. Thanks for the suggestion.

Have a nexus 5 Sony watch wouldn't stay connected...after a phone call to tech support sony does not support anything above 4.3...why BC no sony phones are above 4.3 at the moment....
She said there is an update coming out but didn't know when or even if it would fix the problems....

I'm using it with my S3 running omnirom, which is at 4.4.2 so it's not that. There is an update coming but I doubt it would help you in itself. Mine disconnects from time to time, I've found the quickest way to reconnect is to turn Bluetooth off on the watch and back on again, it generally pairs straight away. Hopefully that will be fixed in the new version.

This is just what she said. Mine wouldn't reconnect.... To annoying

I'm running a Nexus 5 and had my SW 2 since December, never had issues with connection, aside from once with a botched custom Kernel. If you're not running stock, try running that, other than that I suggest faulty hardware on the watch's part

My SW2 and Nexus 5 work great together, no connection issues. I've had this combo for 2-3 months now.
Same setup here. Nexus 5 and Android 4.4.2, everything is working great. Have you tried resetting the watch to stock?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
Tried 2 different watched.. Bluetooth works fine.. Use Bluetooth headphones to work out with and those never get disconnected.
Reset the watch multiple times.. Would work and then lose connection even though the app still shows connected.. The apps would not communicate with my phone
She did say they were getting a lot of complaints about my issue as well.

^Same here... Sony SW2 with Nexus 5 (4.4.2) and haven't had any issues with bluetooth connectivity. As others mentioned, resetting the watch or unpair and re-pairing would be the first things I would try.
Best of luck... let us know how it goes.
Done that. I should say that I got a pebble and have 0 issues.. Don't know why it was not working,, tried 2 different ones from 2 different stores.. Bc of that sony refused to even send me another.. They pretty much forced me to return it
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
Try again? Some Sony phones were updated to 4.4.2 today.

no problems with my Butterfly S either, just recently got 4.4.2
i did read about wifi disconnects but i guess that's unrelated
Does anyone know if the gear s2 work with a custom marshmallow rom on the note 5. Mine is sprint but im guessing if it works on other versions they prob figured it out.
Sent from my SM-N920P using Tapatalk
Yes it works just as it should. I use mine with a tmobile note 5 and have had a custom rom since the day i nrought the note 5 home. No issues whatsoever.

So after flashing a new rom you just open gear manager, it scans finds and connects? I wonder why mine isnt. I have turned Bluetooth on and off from the watch...any idea?
Sent from my SM-N920T using XDA-Developers mobile app
Hmm. Yeah thats exactly what i did. Once rom was set up, turned on the gear and opened gear manager. it connected through bluetooth and did the light reset and was done.
Sent from my SM-N920T using Tapatalk
Maybe I didn't word it well. I was stating the light reset I'm trying to avoid. After doing your required to re-download apps. Thanks for your help man.

You have to do a light reset. Thats for every time you flash.

I've currently got a pebble steel watch which I can use to locate my phone if I lose it, but only if it's within bluetooth range, which it never is when I lose it.
Can the Gear 2 connected to wifi be used to find it's associated phone if it's on the same wifi network?
Thanks
Yes, just tried it out for you by switching off Bluetooth on my phone and then used the Gear S2 Find my phone feature successfully, while the watch was connected remotely, ie via WiFi.

Great, thanks for taking the time to test that
