S3 FW update, R770XXU2BQH1, Aug 25 - Samsung Gear S3

Just got this update on my S3 Classic, only listed one change in the update message, extending vibration alerts to third party messaging apps.
That they don't fix the broken audio notifications for third party messaging apps is really frustrating.

Got the update too. Gear s3 classic

The update actually broke the voice to text fix they recently implemented, so now it's back to not recognizing anything at all.

Voice to text is still working on my end using Frontier and Galaxy S7.

After this update my battery drained like crazy. It was dead before I got home today from work and im pretty sure I had about 70 percent yesterday and I also turn it off when i'm not using it.

My batteries seems about the same as it was before the update. I know that after one of the previous updates my battery was just terrible for a little while, and then straightened out on its own for some reason.

This is still Running Gag with Sales Code...
If your SM-R760 has Sales Code DBT for instance... then NO update... BQC5 is still latest...
But our friends from US with Sales Code XAR receive also for SM-R760 FOTA update...
Code:
R760XXU2BQH1
After they received short time ago BQG4...
This has something to do with active CSC...
In theory you could also update... in alternate ways...
No idea if it is worth... as maybe more Bugs as Features inside...
Best Regards

Same here. **** samsung

Factory reset fixed battery issues that appeared a few days after the update - was going down to 15% in one day. Today, at 78% after 14 hours. Back to normal.

Huge battery drain after latest update

I got an update today in the morning that was like 7mb that fixed some sort of notification for 3rd party apps...or something like that I cant remember. But today my battery died before work was over and I'm pretty sure I was above 50% before I turned it off yesterday. I was getting more than 5% drain per hour. So what can I do?

Some USA customers have had reports back stating their motherboard or main boards have been replaced.
Which is probably a lie, as it's only been happening globally since the updates, my cousin has the Classic variant, and is on same firmware and his is still fine.

Samsung devices "select" Firmware by Sales Code/active CSC...
So not every Sales Code/CSC receive Firmware...
BQG4 and BQH1 are only for US CSC available:
Code:
XAR
Reading/detect active Sales Code is not easy... but not impossible.
Example here:
This should work with SDB without ROOT...
Code:
sh-3.2$ vconftool get -t string db/csc/salescode
[B]db/csc/salescode, value = DBT (string)[/B]
DBT is my German Sales Code...
Code:
sh-3.2$ vconftool get -t string db/csc/bincode
[B]db/csc/bincode, value = OXA (string)[/B]
All easy Codes are disabled and I know NO Tizen app from Store... which easy display Sales Code...
Only as info.

Edit 1.
Sales Code from Korea... also receive BQH1...

No idea if more countries... and when...

Tizen.
Corrected
I installed few hours ago and all seems to be working properly. First thing I noticed that changed was the first wuget which was 4 components which you could not change is now 6 customized and a center one which takes you to all apps. Also I could be wrong but it appears the Under Armour apps are widgitized and I think more adaptable to Shealth.
Also it seems SVoice was upgraded. Could be me but it seems to run a little faster.
Overall a large upgrade for the device
Where are you?
Upgraded now getting gear s plugin keeps restarting on my phone. USA

Also a very nice feature which android wear has is the ability to place in watch only mode. Basically shuts down all apps and connections and just coverts to standard watch. Great to extended battery life. When I messed with it it indacted battery life would be over 15 days

Hey neighbor! Well here is my ownership in the past 3 days. I had the ATT Frontier for sometime. Decided to test Huawei watch2. Used a day or so and returned it and picked up a S3 Classic BT version. Today I ordered the S3 Classic ATT version. Love the watch and figured go with LTE. .

The problem is.
Samsung has more then 10 different deviceS under the pet name:
"Gear S3"
And over 80 "different" CSC... Sales Code...
So for every Sales Code+ corresponding REAL device Samsung off Firmware update...
This makes around 90 Variants...
If I see Verizon...
Then I am 99,9 % sure you have:
SM-R765V...
Your Sales Code is:
Code:
VZW
So your latest available Firmware is:
Code:
R765VVRU1AQF4/R765VVZW1AQF4/R765VVRU1AQF4
Now you can check on your device... with easy peasy steps... if I dreaming or maybe this could be true...
Under Settings--> About device
You can find many infos...
Or you simple type:
Code:
*#1234#
Then you can try to compare...
Most users here report about Tizen 3 for SM-R760 and/or SM-R770
So check this post:

I installed 3.0 last night. Yesterday, on the previous firmware, my watch was generally using around 2% battery per hour. With the same watchface, using the watch in the same way, I'm now using more like 4-5% per hour. Might try a factory reset.

I performed the update yesterday, and I am also experiencing battery drain. After 2 hours off the charger, the battery is at 79%. You guys might want to wait on performing the update for now.
And I also updated yesterday fully charged at 10:30 p.m. woke up at 6:45 a.m. and the watch was at 97% so no battery drain here but I'm not running custom stuff

Wait...
Samsung removed ALL Tizen 3 updates for now... tooooo much bugs.

Is it confirmed that no more users can get the update?? So basically rollout has stopped??
This explains why my replacement watch that I got yesterday kept saying it is up-to-date.
If rollout has stopped then samsung is finally working on a fix for battery woes. Although a friend of mine conformed me that he got update on Sunday morning..here in Pakistan. Not sure if updates are still coming through in some regions he is good so far in last 8 to 10 hrs as he resrt right after update

I have yet to see a new csc..even version of new update
So I picked up an S3 from the Mrs for Xmas
And apparently it's on Tizen 3.0.0.1.... but I'm not sure if this is a good thing or not? Have they paused this update due to battery issues?
I can't tell yet as it's brand new but I have most of the settings turned off (AOD, heartrate etc) and apparently it's got 2 days in it. Perhaps cos I've been messing with it so much. Maybe on everyday wear it'll be better. Time will tell.

Revised tizen 3.0 update? (New gear s3 owner (need help))

So I just got my shiny new bluetooth Gear S3 Frontier for Christmas and im loving it. And I can see that the tizen 3.0 update is available for download through the Gear app but there seems to be some battery drain issues related to this update. So, does the update that I see in my Gear app also include the battery drain fix that has started to roll out or is it still the original Tizen 3.0 update? Btw I am located in the U.S. if that helps.

I just got a Classic for Christmas, so my experience is also limited. I updated it right out of the box. However, after two days of heavy use getting all the aid set up and such, I used it more normally today and still had 50% battery. That's still pretty great imo since I just put it on my charger every night. It's a significant improvement over my last watch, the LG Urbane running Android Wear.

They first released a fix for the old Tizen 3 and pulled the full update. If you're on Tizen 2 now and see an update for Tizen 3, it should be for a fixed version and not the old battery killer version.

I'm going with something I read from Samsung about them pulling the bad Tizen 3 download. I can't guarantee that though. If you can get it and it isn't the fixed one, then the fix should be available for you shortly. The fixed download would be the same as the original Tizen 3 plus the small fix.

Nothing here in U.K as far as updates concerned...
Update available for me in California - US. Wifi version of S3 Frontier connected to my T-mobile Note 8.
Hopefully it fixes the damn lag issues with Tizen 3.0.0.1, My S3 went from being amazing pre-Tizen 3.0 to a steaming pile of **** with 3.0.0.1... it Lags increadibly HARD. I wan't to downgrade back to 2.3.2.0 but from everything that I've been reading, its possible but we loose S Pay... Anyone have any info if there is a downgrade available with SPay still functional?

I'm in CA too with the Bluetooth version and I got the update yesterday and it has destroyed my battery life. 4 hours tops. Perhaps they pulled it because of this issue. I wish I knew how to roll back, it's not even worth taking it off of the charger its so bad.

3.0.0.1 made my S3 Frontier lag like nasty... On 2.3.2.0 it was amazing, snappy, responsive, could get rid of the S Health b.s. I commute over an hour to and from work and use my watch to control my music on my phone. After a certain time, the watch just gives me the notification that I've been sitting for over an hour and doesn't let me swipe down and click on the music tray to quickly get to the music controller. If I pick up calls using my watch, it takes over 3 seconds before the mic begins to work... it just lags and is over all slower than crap... Makes me want to chuck the watch. I love S Pay though, but at this point I'm willing to forgo S Pay and just downgrade Tizen to have a good functioning watch. My batter went from 80% to 74%. I'll let you know how the battery performs with the update. Hopefully the response is snappier too, but I'm not expecting much at this point.
Nothing here on my T-Mobile Gear S3 frontier. I'll keep a look out, while I continue to hunt down the internet for a downgrade to Tizen 2 without bricking this thing again.
I miss the days with the Gear S where I could just plug in the watch and get the files easily off of SamMobile.

Is there anyway to go back to old firmware? I bought the watch on 3.0.0.1 and everything seems to be miles out...steps....floor count....ect.
Wonder if all that was better on old firmware?

Hey PiperGCA,
So I've been testing my S3 and with 3.0.0.2 seems to be a little bit snappier than 3.0.0.1 (No where near as snappy as 2.3.2.3 but improvement is improvement!) The battery is also doing really well! Have you tried to factory reset your S3 Frontier since you upgraded the firmware?

If I pick up calls using my watch, it takes over 3 seconds before the mic begins to work... it just lags and is over all slower than crap... Makes me want to chuck the watch. I love S Pay though, but at this point I'm willing to forgo S Pay and just downgrade Tizen to have a good functioning watch. My batter went from 80% to 74%. I'll let you know how the battery performs with the update. Hopefully the response is snappier too, but I'm not expecting much at this point.

Hey mates!
as per my own experiance with gear s3 frontier.from the first 2.3.2.3 version to 3.0.0.2 is that-
1.sammy made very much disappointment in tizen 3.0.0.1
which was seems to be better.
2.in my experiance over tizen 3.0.0.2 is now sammy have implement quiet better battery life and connectivity improvement.
3.if anyone wants to revert back then he can revert but i would suggest all of members to reset your watch when u get an new update.first update and then reset it.so,you can get max. profit from your update.
4.there might be some issue can be found with tizen 3.0.0.1 or tizen 2.3.2.4 while adding spay cards.because software with server is upgraded but not your firmware.due to that it might not get activated.
The Samsung announcement mentioned in the OP appears to be only for the R760 (Non-LTE model) - Is there a similar announcement either from Samsung or AT&T for the R765A (LTE model sold by AT&T)?
