Does anyone know how to disable the auto answering of the watch. I don't want to have to switch every call to my phone from the Bluetooth menu when I receive a call. I can't find a toggle in settings on the gear app or on the watch itself.

I don't have it yet, but it might be in the bluetooth settings on your phone

What do you mean?
if you answer a call with the phone, it will use the phone for speaking with. if you answer with the watch, it will use the watch to speak with.
if you don't want to talk on the watch, don't answer with it.

Nope that isn't how it works. I answer on the phone and the call audio is on the watch. That's the problem I'm trying to solve. Then I have to manually switch it to handset.

I have call audio enabled in bluetooth settings.
And yes, that is how it works. I just tested it. I answer with my phone, I can speak on the phone. Audio doesn't go via the watch if you don't answer with the watch.

Did you ever consider that it might work differently on different phones? That isn't how it worked by default on my pixel and T-Mobile s3.

It shouldn't be any different.
It's a Pixel. Very basic device. Bluetooth works like it's 1999.
I have a different weird problem. I just got the S3 (T-Mo) came from the S2 (T-Mo). I have used the Note5, Note7 and S7 Edge all T-Mo with the S2. I got rid of my personal phone (T-Mo) and started using my work phone (S7 Edge Verizon) when I still had the Gear S2. My calls would sporadically auto answer or not be received at all; going straight to Voicemail. This phenomena never occurred when I had the T-Mo phones, so I am wondering if it has something to do with how the Verizon phones interact with T-Mo phones. This is now happening with my (T-Mo) Gear S3 connected to my Verizon S7 Edge. Is anyone having the same problem? Or anyone NOT having this problem but using a Verizon Galaxy phone with a T-Mo Gear S watch? I'm curious if I just need to tweak a setting I am not familiar with on the Verizon S7 Edge (some menus are different than the T-Mo phone) and the way they forward calls is different, as well and I don't completely understand how it works compared to the T-Mo phones.
I am having the exact same problem and my gear is identical to yours including TMO. I will try disabling the phone audio in BT but this should not be happening at all.
I have to disable this daily, horrible. Every time I leave my car it automatically switches bt phone audio back to the watch. What a bummer!
Same problem here. Nexus 5X and Gear S3. Even if I dial out from the phone, the call gets redirected to my watch. Same if I receive a call. Even if I answer on phone, audio gets sent to the watch.
Any solution?
I'm having the same issue. It does not matter if I answer on phone or watch, the audio is always on the watch. How do I make it smart to tell the difference? I'm using a Pixel. Thanks
Might take a look at this:

I had the same problem. I disabled the phone audio profile and it worked. However the second time this happened and I disabled the phone audio profile it turned the blue tooth off and I would not get messages or call notifications on my watch. I turned on the phone audio profile and now I get the phone notifications but also get the answering on my watch (even though I answered on the phone). I have tried disconnecting the watch, rebooting the phone but nothing.
Solved with MacroDroid:
Trigger: Call active (any contact)
Action: Kill application Galaxy Wearable
Constraints: Trigger fired Call active
AND In call
App Alive BG Galaxy Wearable

I am loving my Note 10.1 so far. I use an Att S3 daily and was wondering if there is any way for the two to hook up maybe to send texts from my S3 using the Note.
I paired them using bluetooth and so far as I can see, it does not do a whole lot. I have a voice and data SIM in my S3 and a Data SIM in the Note 10.1. I have been switching SIM's back and forth, but there has got to be a way to get them to work togther?
I kind of remember hearing about a companion app from Samsung. I have yet to find anything though. Any ideas?

I've heard an app called "Tablet Talk" works very well for syncing and sending texts over bluetooth or wifi.
I don't know exactly what it does but have you proved the Allshare Cast app?

I don't know if this is an ICS bug or a Samsung bug or a Verizon limitation? When making a phone call it is very easy to add another phone call and merge both calls into a conference call. But if one of the calls drops off, there is no way to add them again. There is also no way to hang up with only one of the people on the conference call, you have to end the whole thing.
This probably is on a stock Galaxy S3 on Verizon with the default dialer. I tried a different dialer but that function seems to be outside the dialer.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

I think this is a limitation of CDMA. GSM allows up to 6 simultaneous calls in a conference, and can individually disconnect calls too. Though I think at least T-mobile (maybe AT&T too) changed it to only allow a max of 2 calls. Eventually we'll have calling over LTE and that would I imagine provide better conference call services than GSM or CDMA.

Root your phone and flash cm9 or 10. The dialer on this rom allows merging and adding afterwards if one drops

Even on Verizon? I read somewhere that even the iPhone doesn't allow that functionality on Verizon because of how their network works.

Anyone knows if it will be possible to make or take calls on the none 3g version when tethered to a phone?
I think the first generation gear s was able to do that but I can't find any information on the gear s2.
All the reviews mention that the 3g version is able to make calls when NOT tethered to a phone, no mention about the none 3g version when it is tethered to a phone.

You can make the call but the watch doesn't have a speaker so you won't be able to actually talk on it. You'll have to either pick up your phone or use a Bluetooth headset.

Is this verified or an assumption ? Do you currently own the watch?
The standard bluetooth models, regular and Classic, cannot make phone calls. There is no speaker on them. If you want to make calls from the watch you need to pick up the 3g model that comes out next month. That one has a speaker.
This is based on spec sheets. This is based on tutorial videos. And this is based on personal ownership and experience with an S2 Classic.

It's been verified by multiple sources. That's why I think I'm gonna skip this watch. Classic doesn't come in 3g and I'm not a fan of the way the sport version looks.

Yes, sounds like android wear is doing it today.
I wish they would do it like Apple is doing it with their watch. You can take and make calls regardless of the watch having 3g connectivity.

If I see someone making a call on their watch and obviously the call will be on speaker you'll get a slap on the hand. If you're going to have a conversation don't be that guy and have it on speaker.
I rarely talk on the phone in public and when I do, it's NEVER on speaker. That's just obnoxious. I think it would be good for when I'm at the house and my phone is in another room and I can't get to it in time. I could answer on the speaker until grabbing my phone.

the Gear S2 cannot make or receive calls. if you get a call you will get a notification and if you slide to answer it tells you the call is on your phone. when you try to make a call it says that its dialing on your phone.
this is the deal breaker for me, Im returning it this Friday. the Gear 2 is much more functional while the Gear S2 just looks better.

It doesn't matter on the phone as the sport/classic doesn't have a speaker, only microphone so it won't be able to handle an actual call. It can initiate one and you can have the actual conversation on your handset
agreed, this is a huge deal breaker for me... just picked up a refurb gear s for $150. Now I wait for speakerphone support through android wear!

The LG Urbane 2 does this with android wear. However, it has its own Sim. Not sure if that it what you are looking for.

I think speaker support will be coming to Android Wear sooner than later. Thought I read that a tear down of the Huawei watch showed an unexplained speaker present in the watch.

Don't want/care about sim card support, not until carriers allow sim card cloning so your watch and phone have the same phone number. At this point, I want BT, WiFi, and voice calling.

You can make and receive calls with the T-Mobile S2. Not that I plan on doing that but nice feature to have. It also has 4G.
I was really bummed my S2 didn't have a speaker and couldn't talk on phone calls via the watch. Still the same with the S3?

The several sites I've seen don't mention a speaker, but I finally found this on Samsung's website. "*Bluetooth model requires Wi-Fi connection and a voice call app for phone-free calls."

That's for call capability true. But I think the OP was asking about a speaker?
The S3 has a speaker on both models. This is the main reason I will be upgrading my S2.

Both models will have a speaker, but everything I've read online says only the Frontier will have 3G/LTE capability. Thus able to act as a standalone phone.
Correct
"Bluetooth model requires Wi-Fi connection and a voice call app for phone-free calls"
Why does it need Wi-Fi to make a call? Can't it just use the phone line and relay voice over Bluetooth like the previous models?
"phone-free"...

It only needs wifi for "phone-free" calls - ie only when you're not connected to your phone via bluetooth.
I have the latest Galaxy watched and just connected it to the 7. I get app notifications on the watch but no calls or texts. I checked the settings and did all I can think of. Is this an incompatibility issue or is there something I'm not doing?
Thanks!
IIRC, the calls only come to the watch when you're away from your phone? That's how it was when I was using it on my Note 9. Haven't tested calls on my 7 Pro yet with my GS3 Frontier but texts came through.
Texts and calls come to mine no problem. Works pretty flawlessly.

I don't get anything as calls, call log, messages or inbox. Very weird because on my s10+ it was working fine.
I completely reset the watch. Didn't think of that at first. I just "connected to new phone" before this. I'll keep everyone posted.
Yeah when you change phones you have to reset the watch. I have the GS3 Frontier and this was I had to do. Mine works with getting notifications from textra, WhatsApp and calls no issues.

Do you have the Samsung Accessories plugin installed? And the Galaxy Watch plugin? You need both.
