Hi. Ive just added the $5 wearable plan to my account, but calls are not being forwarded to the Gear S2. I have set the option in the app on my S7 Edge to forward calls when remotely connected. Here is a summary of what happens:
Devices connected via bluetooth: When I call my phone line, both the phone and Gear S2 ring, and I can take the call from either
Gear S2 in standalone mode: When I call the Gear S2 number, the watch rings
Devices remotely connected (bluetooth on phone switched off): Gear S2 says it is remotely connected, and that calls are being forwarded. However, when I call my phone line, only the phone rings rather than the Gear S2
Can anyone help resolve this issue? Both the app on my phone and the Gear S2 have the correct number for the watch. I have logged the problem with T-mobile and so am waiting for tech support to get back to me. It seems unlikely that this is a problem with the device since everything else works, and is more likely to be a network issue
Thanks
You have 2 differents phone number ?
Call forward works with 2 SIM and 2 differents phone number. You forward your phone Number to the Gear Phone number.

I have 2 different numbers: 1 for the phone and one for the gear. I have set the Gear app to forward calls, and the gear confirms that calls are being forwarded when in the remote connection state. But no calls are being forwarded - thi is my issue

If you call are forwarded your phone do not ring. If it ring, it mean that call are not forwarded.
Try to find the UUI code for forward call and tap the code on your phone app dialer pad, or use Android phone setting to forward your call. Gear app use standard code for forward but this do not work with all operator. Forward call is an operator feature and not related to one specific app (Gear manager or other)

Sounds like you have t-mobile correct? If so the phone has to be on for the phone to forward calls to the watch. If the phone is off it will not work. The way it works is if you get out of bluetooth range it will forward calls to the watch
Yes, I'm on tmobile and the phone is on. Even though I have call forwarding set in the app, maybe there is a setting on the network side? I don't want to have to manually enter codes each time I want to forward/ stop forwarding so hopefully I can resolve the issue and just use the setting in the Gear app. Thanks

well there is a setting on the watch to turn call forwarding on. Maybe you should try that but other than that i would call t-mobile thats all i have turned on and it works
After the last update, I do not take calls on the watch.After the call is completed on the phone, I get a message about missed call on the watch,but I am not able to receive calls on the watch.Does anyone have a similar problem.My gear s3 is BT version.
My gear S3 sometimes become hang. Sometimes, when I receive incoming call from my Mobile, my Gear S3 still ringing during the conversation. Even, after finishing the call, when I receive another call, Gear S3 shows previous call with ringing
what to do??
Gear S3 frontier paired with new Note 9 causing issues in whatsapp. Everytime I make a whatsapp call the Bluetooth Icon is always on/selected and sometimes calls go on speakerphone. Also randomly WhatsApp hangs and no way to hangup the call but to request other party to hangup call and WhatsApp resumes. Making normal calls over GSM carrier works fine.

Also incoming calls go to speaker.. Outgoing calls are fine but show Bluetooth Icon as if it is selected. Tried Viber and that works fine. If anyone had a note 9 and a gear S3 do chime in.

Hi guys, when someone is calling me on my new Huawei Watch GT 3 on WhatsApp, first it appears a quick notification screen with the contact name and whatsapp logo on top, and under it it says incoming voice call, but after one second that screen switches to another one where it says Unknown number and I have the option to reject or answer the call. How can I fix this issue? I want that when somebody is calling me on WhatsApp to be able to see the name of the contact on the watch too and not just "Unknown number". On normal calls it's good without problems. Thank you!
I have the same issue but no idea how to fix it.
It is working perfectly only if the watch is paired with an....IPhone.
I have same issue
I am having the same issue with amazfit and huawei GTR 3. Is it related to Samsung phones? I am using Samsung S23 Ultra with my watches.
