So I just got an update on my Gear S2, SM-R720. I believe this is the one that brings features from the S3?

I'm assuming your Gear S2 is BT/wifi, not 3G/4G? Has anyone in the US on 3G/4G gotten the update on T-Mobile? Thanks.

Not for me yet.
Just a heads up. My battery life tanked after the update regardless of what I did. What fixed it was recharging a couple times. For some reason that worked.

No, it's really crazy that the $300 version of the Gear S2 still does not have automatic sleep tracking. I wish I could just flash it to the generic Samsung 3g firmware and be done with T-Mobile, but it doesn't seem to be a possibility (I started a thread here, but no responses so far: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gear-s2/general/gear-s2-3g-t-mobile-version-flash-to-t3518844 ).
I'd also complain to T-Mobile directly, maybe if enough of us complain, they'll do something about it.

Hi rogerperk,
I have same Gear S2 732 in same firmware as you (in France), and for me too, battery drain is present
Sure, not as much as you, but now, I've got a "low battery alert 15%" at 23h00 when, before, I get to bed at 00h30 with 35-40% battery left ! For sure, there is something that change (same watchface as before) !
Sadly, 2 charging (and even more than 10 actually) dont change anything for me
Best regards
Not good. I recharged mine a couple times and did a factory reset and that seemed to do it. I'm actually getting far better battery life now. Over 24 hours and I'm only at 77%! I hope that keeps up! I cut out alot of stuff I don't use like NFC and constant wifi and heartrate checks. That sort of stuff.

Thanks for asking : finally, it seems that, little by little, I get back to normal battery life. I can't figure why, but it's a fact.

It seems you could clear ram through your phone. You might need to delete some stuff to free up enough memory

Hey guys,
I wanted to share my experience with my note 3( from India )
Its amazing phone. After using for about a month, Note 2 seems bulky and FAT
Note 3 looks stylish
Now about Kitkat update. I got it yesterday it was OTA update.
The battery backup has gone amazingly wild.
It used 50% battery overnight with wifi on, BUT now it spends on 20% WOOooooowwwwwww!
And in my normal usage battery went to about 15% till the evening, when after the update it is still about 60% left
I love the KITKAT, Overall Speed seems to have doubled in response.
Apps open in almost half the time.
Thats it.
Share your experience too
How come that you missed any of already active kitkat threads?

Received following update today.
Improves battery usage: Should have been implemented on the initial release. Samsung really dropped the ball. We should all get a new Gear S3. Wait!! I DID!!! Only took 3 returns, 3 different repair center results. Only one of the returns was battery related. All were result of heart-rate-monitor issues.
Received new watch from sammy on December 13th with tizen 2.3.2.1. That tells me sammy had no confidence in tizen 3 up to 7 days ago (adj for shipping).
I won't be updating to the full tizen 3 anytime soon. Ain't going through that battery crap again.

Where are you from? I heard that only Canadian Gear S3 are allowed to receive this update yet. Tks.
Well, I took my S3 watch off the charger this morning with battery at 100% and performed this small update right then. When it was done with the update, the battery was then 56%. Interesting... Now I hope there's enough time to charge it back up to 100% before I leave for work this morning. Hum...
Update: In the few minutes time it took me to type up the reply above, my S3 watch is now showing 72% after just a few minutes on the charger. Hum...

I Have the latest (?) version Tizen 3.0.0.1 (BT version watch).
R760XXU2CQK3
When checking for update (tried more than ones and more than one day), I get notification:
"Unable to update the software. A network or server error occured. Try again later".
Watch is connected to network. Tried also another network. But same result.
Checking if watch makes a good network connenction: I can install watchfaces etc. So this is not the problem.
Anybody any idea? Someting wrong with de Samsung server?

I received that a few times. Maybe it's something to do with them updating their servers with the new Tizen 3 they're releasing now for the people still on Tizen 2. I'd give it a few days if it keeps up.
For anyone wondering how battery life is after the mini update, it has been absolutely amszing. Any questions just ask away friends.
I did the battery fix update two days ago. With AOD on, my battery is draining fast. Did a reset 1.5 hours ago, and the watch is at 85%. I was getting the same drain before my reset.
KingVekxon, is your AOD on?

Not at all, no need for an AOD. Especially when I have my phone on my person so much and I'd rather just press the button on my watch, if I don't have my phone. No need to waste battery unnecessarily ya know?
With AOD you're never going to get a good battery life

Hi, bought a gear s3 a few days ago and will recieve soon, after looking for a bit on the forums i had to ask if i should update to the latest tizen os version when i recieve it, but sounds like the battery issues are a big problem and i dont want to mess up my new watch, so is it worth it to update or just skip and wait for a new version to roll out in the near future? Thanks

Hmmm nice battery life... Remotely connected is when your out of bluetooth range and your gear connects to wifi. Youd still be able to recieve messages. Handy if your charging your phone, when your in the gym and have to leave your phone in the locker and connected to the wifi, etc....
Will move again to version 2.3 coz its not working for me using 2cqk3 and 2cql1.
Will just wait for samsung to fix it in their next update

Ah i see, sadly i still dont have wifi at home 4 months after hurricane maria wrecked puerto rico, heck not many places have wifi yet
Looks like it's not in the news yet, so here we go.
Got an update this morning: tizen 4.0.0.2 has arrived! Software version R760XXU2DSA1! :victory:
File size approx 300Mb
Pretty stoked to see Samsung taking care of more/less dated watch. Probably last update before new Galaxy sport rolls out.
Thoughts, ideas, etc..?
@adfree, it happened!
Nice, saw this on SamMobile. Does anyone know how to force the update? I have the S3 Frontier on Verizon.
They started to roll the update out a few hours ago.. give it a few days, I'm sure you'll get it.

It probably doesn't help you since I have the s3 frontier but I hit the 3 dot menu on the side, then I hit the phone looking icon that says music player. That brings up where you can select the source app

Thanks for your answer. Just minutes ago, there was no 3 dot menu on my watch. But now, after updating the gear s plugin on my phone, it is there. Now I am able to choose, too!
No update here. Frontier s3 watch only. Ireland.
Not that i need it.. 3 days battery is enough for me so far.

Any chance that our Gear S3 Frontier will get the Tizen 4.0.0.7 upgrade like the Galaxy Watch ?
They are almost the same watches... and the new upgrade would bring some interesting things ...
Chance is very low in 2019... because only 1 month left...
But maybe in 2020...
Best Regards
I see many people buying S3 still. Prices are way down now so its a good deal. Would be shame if they wouldnt update. Im still waiting for HR alarms they promised long time ago. Manual of the device got already updated to have this functionality but the watch did not.
whats the difference between 4.0.0.4 and 4.0.0.7? I have both and the Galaxy watch did got an update few days ago(didn't checked the version tho) but not the S3, still running 4.0.0.4
I can't see any "signs" on SM-R600 nor Gear S3 family...
Maybe reached End of Live...
So I am pretty sure NO Firmware updates in 2019... for Gear S3.

I hear a lot of concerns about battery life, but on my G3 Frontier, which stays on 24/7, is worn all the time, save for a shower, having the flip wrist to wake up and rotate the bezel to wake up off, I'm getting a little over 3 1/2 days of battery life. My phone goes off at 11pm to 6am with no wi-fi to keep it connected. I can charge it on Sunday night, take it off the charger and put it on, and Thursday afternoon, the battery will be at 18%.
Anyone else get that kind of battery life?
Tiny steps forward...
