Question Issue with 4G on Galaxy Watch 4 Classic, non Samsung phone - Samsung Galaxy Watch 4

I have just received the 4G model through today and tried to connect to my phone to copy the EE plan details over. However it seems it only works with Samsung phones. I have a Pixel 5, is there a workaround anyone knows of?
Many thanks!

Same issue here too but I'm using Oppo. Would have thought that with it being Wear OS over Tizen that the cellular would be opened up to more than just Samsung phones. Very frustrating really.

I've ended up returning mine and getting the bluetooth version instead. Only possible workaround I found was someone mentioning was setting up the esim through a compatible Galaxy phone, and then setting up on the non-samsung phone. Not sure if this would work, and sounds like too much hassle!

Christ... cheers for the tip! Might give it a go!

You need to borrow a Samsung phone to do it.
But tbh, it does not work either at this moment.
I think the Watch is too recent and they can't recognize it yet.

I'm going to wait and see if they remove restrictions, if not then I'll wait for another watch.

Just for information, I successfully got eSim working with a Galaxy A40, factory reset without clearing eSim and pairing it with a OnePlus 7T Pro.
French network.

I use the GW4 LTE with my Mi 11 Ultra and eSim is working fine on the watch. Was easy to set up.
Didn't need any Samsung phone at all for the watch.

Was this on EE in the UK? Is this a network specific issue?

No, in Germany (Telekom).

I also used this procedure, I did it with my pixel 5 and it works fine with a Galaxy A51. French network (Orange).
One restriction : VOLTE must be activated with the sim card in Samsung phone, else, GalaxyWear displays error message.

Don't understand this.
I couldn't pair my watch with my Huawei phone, but that was because of the known Huawei block.
I've therefore decided to pair with another of my phones a Motorola.
No issue at all loading a vodafone eSim onto the watch (payg) with the Motorola having a giffgaff sim, also payg.
I only want to use the Vodafone eSim to keep me connected when out of Bluetooth range (apps and txt messages from my phone), and for voice calls I simply forward on when not answered to the Vodafone eSim number.
This way I don't need an expensive contract sim plan and add on watch sim plan.

I just bought the Galaxy watch 4 44mm and LTE activation is done easily with Mi 11x device Jio SIM(India),
I have not faced any issue, I had to wait for 5-10 minutes to open the Jio ESIM activation page to open.
Now it's working perfectly fine.
I have not used any Samsung device for this process

Wifi calling

Hi guys, new to here.
I've searched high and low and I can't seem to find an answer.
I'm from the UK and have a BTU galaxy s7. I've just rooted it and have downloaded csc feature expert. Tried to enable wifi calling but nothing appears under phone settings.
Has anyone had any luck doing this? If so, info would be much appreciated.
It worked for me in USA on t mobile!! i didn't do anything special just outta the box connected to wifi and boom
I'm in the UK too, vodaphone network with wifi callinging activated on my account and similarly I can't activate in on my phone, because there is no "wificalling" enable selection on my Samsung S7 Edge phone settings, did you have any luck finding out how you can do it

According to the Vodafone S7/Edge forum Wi-Fi calling needs an update before it can be enabled. No idea when this will be out.

It's working for me, but I got my S7 from EE.
OK Thanks. I contacted Samsung and they say wifi calling isn't part of their software, its a service provider software add on. I know EE have their wificalling working, where you download an App, whereas vodaphone are saying you don't need to download any app, so as you've said, vodaphone are advertising under false pretences, becasue their wificalling isn't up and running yet.....you'd think they'd get a system that works first, before advertising the facility......a case of waiting to see when Vodaphone get their act together

To be fair to Vodafone (which is very difficult) their web site doesn't mention Wi-Fi calling for the S7 - only the S6. Several people on their forum have claimed that customer service told them it was enabled which doesn't surprise me in the slightest. As the new flagship phone why wouldn't it be enabled out of the box? Especially given EE didn't appear to have any problem doing it.
Anyway, I'm sure it will be along any time now... What I'd like to know is when they're going to enable Wi-Fi texts as well as calls.
P.S. You don't need an app for EE either. I believe EE and Vodafone work in the same way as opposed to O2 and 3 which use a separate app.

I just flashed EE version (from here http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G930F/EVR/) G930FXXU1APB9 and WiFi calling options still do not show up. Please advice.

AFAIK, there is no way to get WiFi calling on the Exynos variant. Sorry, it doesn't sound like it will ever be possible, so don't get your hopes up.

S9+ Exynos on T-Mobile US Journey.

Just received my S9+ 256GB Korean Variant SM-G965N. This is going to be my experience with this particular variant and its compatibility with the T-Mobile network. Currently it shows I'm connected to Band 2 LTE but the speeds I'm my area are very slow. Withing the next couple days I'm am going to test the network throughout my area in Cali and test speeds and connectivity and report back. Unfortunately the build of Samsung pay is customized for S.korea only and not compatible here in the US.
Current build after first update is G965NKOU1ARC7
Baseband versions G965NKOU1ARC4
I have some data speeds this afternoon while out driving. The long screenshot is from my G965 and the short list of from a T-Mobile variant S7 . Connection to the network itself has been stable with no notice of dead spots or issues switching towers, if anything I'd say the switch is faster from what I've notice between devices.
Excellent...a lot of us have been waiting for this...thanks for testing...
I was curious about this. I have a G965U1(S9+ Unlocked North America variant).
I have a second phone with Ting GSM(T-Mobile), and I tried a few speed test. The phone configured it self to send calls over wifi when ever I connect to wifi. I found that peering with Sprint appears to be an issue.

Hey guys,
I also got an international S9+ (SM-G965F) but from Germany Unlocked (DBT). So far the signal seems to be great. Will post some Speedtests later. The only downside is that wifi calling and VoLTE is not there. It was working with my German sim. Other than that it's been great.

Have you flashed T-Mobile CSC? I assume you have to root and make a custom zip to flash the files. If the phone thinks it's a legitimate T-Mobile phone then it give you full speeds.
Also is the Korean phone a duos? Dual SIM?

I dont think that is possible. Isn't the Korean version run on Exynos? Flashing a Snapdragon CSC for TMB would be wonderful but I think would mess lots of thinks up. Hopefully someone will be able to change the CSC to work on the exynos processor.
Okay so the weirdest thing happened to me. I tried to use Samsung pay a few days ago. I used app cloner to copy the working version of my note 8 snapdragon and sent it to my S9+. It didn't work and gave me the connection error. Now I was just on the phone and out of boredom I tried to open Samsung pay again while on the phone and it magically worked. It asked me for my Iris and fingerprint and I was able to add my cards again. Again, this is on exynos DBT from Germany without any modifications or OEM unlock.
Hope this will help at least with Samsung pay.

Yes am looking into seeing how I can configure the CSC to achieve full T-Mobile speeds. The Korean variant in not a duos.

I have a friend that works at Sammy S. Korea that picked it up for me, as for Samsung pay the apk is specifically built for the Korean market and has a different activation process which requires a text from one of the local carrier networks which I cant bypass.

The build is completely different and won't work because of the region and coding in this software build. I am not ready to root yet so I'm going to tinker with software that's official and see what I can get working, improve on for now.

Not really. I'm also on T-Mobile USA and have the German exynos. The apn settings were loaded correctly. Maybe check them in the settings and make sure it's set correctly. The only thing that is not working is VoLTE and wifi calling.
Samsung pay finally works with the credit cards but the membership doesn't work.

ow did you do the initial setup with or without the T-Mobile sim inserted ? I noticed when I originally set my Korean variant up without the sim, for some reason I did not connect to LTE in my area and after oem unlock and restart/ full wipe it connected perfectly since.
I've got the same model, I'm with ATT, speed test shows 31m down and 10m up, but actual downland from play store is less than 2m...
Hi do you receive benefits in your samsung members app?
Yes if we can get T-Mobile CSC settings to enable VoLTE and Wifi calling then I will root.
I am recently realizing Samsung Pay is not everything it's cracked up to be. It doesn't seem like they have many 3rd party companies registered, so I made a custom loyalty with the barcode, but it doesn't work when it's scanned at checkout. Funnily enough, I have the loyalty in GPay as well, and it works just fine. Also SPay doesn't seem to work in gas station cc readers where you stick the card in and pull it out instead of swipe. Unfortunately it just doesn't seem like the technology is there yet where we can ditch traditional cards.

Unlocked on T-Mobile

Hi!
Hey any functionality lost by using the unlocked version on T-Mobile ?
Thanks
When speaking to Samsung about this, they told me all T-Mobile bands are supported including 5G on the unlocked versions. What you may lose is video calling (who cares) and possibly wifi calling. But in the past I've seen threads were talking to higher-level techs at T-Mobile can enable those features.
I noticed Samsung checkout page didn't ask if you need a SIM for the unlocked phone. In the past it would give you an option. So curious if you will need to go to the store for a SIM.
Thanks . Video calling is big with me . Rats
My Note 9 was unlocked from Samsung but video calling and Wi-Fi calling work fine. Not sure about this phone though.
Won't you just be able to flash the T-Mobile firmware via Odin if you get the unlocked? Then you get the best of both worlds. This is what I did with my Note10+. Got the Unlocked from Samsung then used Odin to get the official T-mobile firmware.

I currently use an unlocked note 10+ on tmo that isn't flashed. The only limitation is that I cannot do tmo-to-tmo video calling. It may simply be a setting on my end but I never looked into it as there are so many options. Everything else works fine and I seem to get every update at the same time.

TMO user with S20 Ultra here. Don't use video calling so I could not say. Wifi calling works.
Third party VVM apps do NOT work and TMO's downloadable visual voice mail app is garbage IMHO.
When I put my VZW sim in the same phone the Samsung VVM app works beautifully.
Unlocked S20 Ultra 512GB here.
"5G" works on TMO where there is coverage however the speed tests show LTE as connection type. Interestingly enough some of the speed tests actually show 5G. Not sure what's going on with that. Have reached over 200Mbps down on TMO "5G" a few times. Most of the time it's the same speed as LTE. Don't care, it works, hot spot works nice too.
If you were to (properly) flash TMO firmware (in theory) it SHOULD make your phone just like a TMO bought phone including the cheesy jingle when booting up. Never tried it, I like the slim as possible approach. Plus the ability to drop in a VZW sim and it just works IS a MUST for me.

Only if you use TMO's downloaded app which is utter $4!+ IMHO.
I hate it so much I just dial in to listen the old fashioned way. I screen calls anyhow so the ONLY time it rings I know who is calling so not really a big deal. If callers don't have the secret PIN they get hung up on! F robos!
What about roaming on T Mobile partner network? Will I get a network on my UNLOCKED Galaxy Note 20 Ultra if I am roaming on US Cellular or any TMobile partner Network?
Will my Unlocked Galaxy Note 20 Ultra support all 5G bands from TMobile? (Low, Mid and High ) Layer Cake so to say.
What about SA 5G (Stand Alone 5G) that TMobile just launched. Will the Unlocked Galaxy Note 20 Ultra support it?
Sprint frequencies
I'm mostly concerned about the Sprint frequencies T-Mobile is picking up.

Question LTE different country

Dear all, I need your help. I bought a Samsung galaxy 4 LTE in US, when I tried to use the LTE here in Brazil it says there is no mobile plan for this watch in your country. I am wonderig if is it possible to change the region? install a new firmware? The modal of my watch is SM-R865U. I really apreciate if anyone could help me with this. Thank you
its not the problem with the watch, your mobile service provider has to support it as companion device
ok, I got it, thanks for your help. However, I also have the active 2 and I was able to set up the LTE service on it. People that bought the same watch here in Brazil are able to set up, only my watch that can not do it. I was thinking if I needed to change the region or to install a new rom or firmware
I had setup issue on my OnePlus device.

I also face the same pb with a pixel 6. I ve read about the trick to set it up by pairing gw4 with a samsung phone...then switching the sim. the pb is that I have esim. not to say that reset&pair it takes a lot of time. and if you have music and other stuff to restore it gets even more complicated.

Question Adding eSim without a samsung phone ?

Hey guys i was wondering if anyone had any luck adding watch plan to their watch 4 without a Samsung phone at least here in UK I can't do it no matter how hard I tried gives me error -1 and tells me to go away
Are there any other options to try other than buying a Samsung phone on the side to set it up ?
When I setup my watch4 I did it with a OnePlus 8T and I never had it tell me it requires a Samsung phone. My carrier set the watch up for me, I didn't have to do anything besides give them the IMEI off the watch. After they got it done on their end, I went through the setup with the app and when it came to the part about activating the network, I picked my carrier and it just worked. But I am in the US.
My only advice is contact your carrier

I'm getting the same issue connecting my Watch5 with my Vivo X80 Pro. Trying to sort it out with EE but they've not even gotten to the point about me not having a Samsung phone, so that's something to look forward to.

So its just a classic EE moment (just like how you cant add your watch plan to non approved watch as they dont do qr codes) they added intentional restrictions to shift more samsungs
in the end i bought a s10 from giffgaff refurbished set up my watch then returned s10 reset watch without wiping esim and set it up with my current phone and works fine

Managed to borrow a Galaxy A41 from a friend while I was waiting for the returns pack from EE; set up the watch no problem. Reset to transfer to my Vivo - doesn't even see the phone in Bluetooth menu now, so won't pick it up in the Wear app
I did manage to repair it with my old phone though (Realme 8 Pro), so not sure if a hard reset on my phone is needed. I'd rather not have to do that though, as it's a faf to have to set up banking and stuff again after
Sorry for hijacking the thread, but I got it working.
I connected the watch back to the Galaxy A41. All good so far.
I then connected the watch via the watch's Bluetooth menu to my Vivo phone.
The Wear app on my Vivo then saw it, but couldn't set it up (assuming as it's already set up on the Galaxy).
I reset the watch again but left the Wear app on my Vivo with the watch visible in the "pick your device" screen.
It worked, including the mobile plan. All good. What a fecking nightmare.
