Anyone else having problems with the watch loosing connection to the phone? And only solution is to power cycle the watch.
I had it happen once over the last week I had watch (got it on 8/26). It connected then unconnected repeatedly. After I power cycled phone and watch it never happened again. I'm connected to watch via bluetooth. Did you have issue once or repeatedly? Since I cycled powered it has been rock solid. I let my watch get to 1% on last charge and I never lost connection.
Drops a least once a day. Toggling Watch BT off then on restores it. Don't need to pwer cycle. Got an update today, maybe that'll fix it.
only happens for me when i'm too far away from phone... BUT is there no way to disable this annoying vibration on disconnect?
setting in developer settings isn't functional.
if anyone finds out how to disable this PLEASE let me know

Hello Z3 owners,
I know this is probably only 1 setting but I can't find it.
What I ment was that when I'm connected to a WiFi I'll only get messages from Whatsapp for example when I'm turning
on the screen for about 3 seconds.
Is this an energyoption ? Didn't found anything till yet.
Sorry for my bad english
Thanks in advance

Have you got stamina mode on? That mode stops the data communication while the screen is off.

Your English is better than my Spielergesprechan.
Go to the battery manager, then scroll down until you see Whatsapp (for example), and ensure you don't have `restrict background data` set for it.
In WiFi advanced settings there is an option to set if you want WiFi always on, or always on if connected to charger or off with screen off. I'm guessing its set to turn off with screen off.

Guess this was my mistake, it was set to "None ( Higher Datavolume )"
Nevermind, even with this Setting it doesn't work..
I could record my screen ( for example if I get a mail or sth ) and show it to you if needed
The messages only arrive if I unlock it.
I'm an IT-Specialist so I think I'm not that dumb :|
I really don't get what's the problem :s
Anyone else experiencing this ?

Did you try a full data reset? Maybe something got corrupted.

Turn off WiFi power savings in advanced and see if it helps....and keep WiFi to always on.

Got the solution. I had some other energysettings on.
For example: I had WLAN-Energyoptions turned on while my Stamina-Mode was off.
Or my stamina Mode was on and my WLAn-Energyoptinos were off.
Ridiculous..
My problem is solved now! Thanks for all your help.

Does anyone else have this problem or know how to stop it?
The schedule function is off, so it can't be that. I've enabled the exception for alarms within it since this keeps happening, but could be dangerous for some people if it does enable on its own like this.

Yeah I get this too. Looks like it's enforcing the schedule to me, despite it not being enabled. Really annoying

I figured out it was automateit, the app. I had it set to turn the phone down to silent at a certain time of night, but apparently this option enables do not disturb mode on this phone instead of just silencing it. Just poor handling, can't blame the app though, phone is still very new.

I'm having the same problem but its also happening in the middle of the day. I've tried to schedule when its to turn on/off but this has not helped.
"Do not disturb" setting turns on randomly
Same problem. Any advice appreciated. For the moment I've gutted the DND setting by telling the phone to let calls, texts, and emails through when in DND mode.
Are you sure its not some app you have installed on the phone?
JuiceDefender for example does this for me, even when do not disturb is turned off in the main settings.

Thanks. Yes, it's an app, though I don't yet know which one. Restarted in Safe Mode and issue went away.
Do not disturb coming on by its self .
I had the same problem on my Samsung J7 .
What I did to solve that problem was I uninstalled all my apps and reinstalled them one by one and watched which one was giving me problems .....And the app TrackR was my problem now I have no problem with my do not disturb ...The app TrackR seems to have a bug .
Happens w the S8+ too
I have tried and tired to figure this out. I am missing important texts because my DND is turning on in the middle of the day randomly despite turning it off. Any ideas?
I bought a Samsung S8, and immediately started having this problem. It stumped me for a while, until I found this thread. I had installed Tasker and imported the settings from my old phone. It turns out that the action to turn on silent mode was turning on Do Not Disturb instead. The actions that used to say Silent Mode "On" now said "Mode 2". I tested it out and, sure enough, it went to Do Not Disturb. For some reason, "On" no longer appears in the pull down box for silent mode; only "Off" and "Vibrate". For now, I'll switch all the broken actions to say "Vibrate".
so my phone just. recently started beeping sporadically with 0 notifications. I made sure notification alerts and nfc were off. any ideas
Check the weather.

Check and see next time it happens if any of the weather apps updated.
Mine was doing that after I did a factory data reset and turned bluetooth on. It kept on beeping and letting me know that there was a bluetooth connection available to my home phone, a panasonic link2cell, it about drove me crazy until I figured it out.

Mine was, once I paired it with the home phone the beeping stopped. You can turn your bluetooth off and see if that's it, if not, I wouldn't venture a guess.
Hi,
I got the Huawei watch 2 with latest software installed. However my watch stopped showing if I get a call, additionally if I start the call on the watch it's still calling with my phone, not the watch. I had this issue 4 days ago and fixed it by resetting the watch. Sadly the issue is back now and I really don't want to reset my watch every 4 days Anybody an idea how i can fix it?
Thanks in advance for any help

I have exactly the same problem. My solution is to disable and enable back the bluetooth on my phone (you can do it also on your watch) so that your watch will attempt to connect again. After re-establishing the bluetooth connection, it works fine for some time, but then the issue comes back. Did you find any better solution to it?
Me too. Really winding me up (watch pun unintended).
Toggling BT or restarting either phone or watch fixes it.,but only for a while.
I also can't choose to switch to the watch when on a call on my phone.
My idea is to run on the phone MacroDroid script that will disable BT and after 5 seconds enable the it back. And to let it run every 30 mins. But i would expect it to be fixed on the Huawei side...
The only way to fix this is to let huawei Wear OS team know they're messing up. But first need to know the correct contact for that team.

How would that work? I've installed MacroDroid and see that I can set a macro to disable BT every half and hour but to set a macro to turn BT back on after 5 seconds means you need to set it to work every 30 minutes and 5 seconds.
By my reckoning that 5 second gap will go out of sync meaning that the time with BT disabled will get longer...
Also, it will disconnect from other devices every 30 minutes which will do my head in when I'm listening to music! ?
I know it's not your problem dude and if I'm wrong or there's a simpler way to go about it than please let me know. It's very frustrating having a device that doesn't do what it's meant to ?

[update] I've answered my own question by looking at the MacroDroid app properly. There's an action to toggle Bluetooth at a chosen interval.

[(another)update] This doesn't work. All any of the attempts and permutations I've tried on MD do is turn off Bluetooth - it won't seem to toggle back on,even when I set that as a separate macro.
I give up
Calls on the watch sound crap anyway! ?
I like to connect for emails, texts, and apps, but do not want voice calls going through watch. This is the first time I've had this happen, and hate it. I don't see anything in settings for phone or watch to eliminate this without disconnecting watch from phone. Help please
Go to settings then notifications and find phone and turn it off

Thanks, I'll try that. Although it seems like more than a notification when the actual call goes there

I had the same issue. Just figured out the solution: Go to the bluetooth settings of your phone and disable call functions for your watch 4.
Thanks. I never would have found that. In several years with a Samsung watch, this is the first time I've had this happen
