[Q] Galaxy Gear + Note 3 - Samsung Galaxy Gear

Hi guys,
A family friend has recently purchased the Galaxy Gear but is having problems with the Note 3.
He can't hear the other person on the other end of the line, but they can hear him perfectly fine.
We have tested it with an S4 and a Note 2 and they work exactly as they should, both people (caller and receiver) can hear and speak to each other.
I have reset the Gear, and uninstalled/reinstalledthe software multiple times but to no avail, it just doesn't want to output through the gear speakers.
Is there anyone else who has experience this or knows what could be the cause of it not working with the N3, but working fine on the S4/N2.
Thanks to anyone who can help out, really appreciate it!
Cheers

perhaps try to raise the volume on the gear?

Look under Bluetooth settings and make sure call audio is checked.

Hi, just some questions:
- I understand you have a non-official 4.3 in the note 2, could you confirm?
- If do you have a bluetooth headset, may I ask you to test if you do a call, or with the phone or with the galaxy gear, if the sounds goes to he headset?
I acquired a gear and check with 4.2.2. and 4.1.2 on diferent devices (installing the gear app) but the issue was with the headset. I need to have it running...

Plasee can check if receive the call with the note instead of the gear, goes it into the note or still going to the gear. In this last case there is a menĂº in The gear that can switch to the note or to the bluetooth, does it work? This menu appears on the gear during the call and is activated on the screen, upper right corner.
do you have last version of gear software in the note?
Thanks for your time.

So if I receive a call i can answer with the gear or with the phone,then from the phone I can push the Headset button and hear the call on the phone,or push it back and hear it on the gear.
Yes I have the latest version I believe.

You are my king....
A) If you receive a call and push your bluetooth earpiece, the call goes directly into this headset?
B) Do you have disconnections using the headset bluetooth earpiece?
C) May i ask you for a print screen of your bluetooth devices connected just to see what is blue color or connected at the same time?
D) What 4.3 are you running?
E) is running in your case the weather widget?
You have the secret to have running the gear. It is related to the 4.3 version but not needed any special sw from Samsung (except obviously the gear sw). If you confirm my question I think I will acquire again a gear (i returned due no way to have it running with my phones)
Sorry for this long list of requirements.

Thanks a lot for your time. And sorry because I am pushing you. It is not the objective....you are really great.
I am running the gear on my stock 4.1.2 note II if you're interested. Thread here:

Smartwatch With Bluetooth Headphones?

Hi
I was just wondering if this, or any other smartwatch, can be used in conjunction with bluetooth headphones? Or can only one bluetooth device be connected to phone at the same time?
This could prove to be a massive dealbreaker for me.
Cheers for any info
Good question as I have a set of Motorola Bluetooth headphones.

I could swear that I read somewhere someone has a note 3 paired with a gear and using some Bluetooth headphones. I believe they claim they can user the controls on either the headphones and watch to make and receive calls. So, could use the watch to answer and would be using the Bluetooth headset for the mic and speaker.

I have been only able to connect my bt headset for music while the gear is set to phone audio. I really wish there was a way to disable that.

I mean it doesn't really make much sense to not have that. Would be ideal being able to see who is ringing via the watch but speaking and listening via the headset.
That IMO is what it's all about. Not many people are wanting to talk into their watch and listen via a loudspeaker

That is not possible except if you have a Note 3 or a Note 2 with the leaked 4.3 from Samsung
I have a Note 8 3g with I use as main phone-tablet during working days, 4.2.2, and acquired a gear. Everything (more or less....) was working except the handling of the bluetooth headset. It maybe related some software piece from Samusung included on the official 4.3.
I have seen the update on 4.3 plan and my device looks not included until maybe end of the year or early next January.... uff, sami, you are loosing a customer.
Finally, after test with 2 diferent gears, I have decided to acquire a sony smartwatch sw2 which works like a charm with the note 8 3g. You can imagine for me, using the tablet 8" as phone, that no possible without a bluetooth headset. The other option was to talk through the watch and it looks stupid and no possible to have confidentiality in the calls.....

I used my LG Tones+ headset to pair up while my watch was also paired. It does work, but I had to press a button on my headset to let it know to go to that device. By pressing the headset button while in the call, the watch picked up the phone call first, then I pressed a button on my Tones headset to get it over to that. By answering the the Tones headset, it goes straight there.

What phone and android version do you have?
Ok well its good to know it can work.. I will wait until my Note II gets updated and see if the agent smartwatch/gear 2 have to offer before I decide.
In no rush but I'll probably get a smartwatch at some point. I just don't want it to affect usage of my bluebuds x bluetooth earphones.
On my N3 I have both a Gear and my car stereo blue toothed at the same time. All works fine.

This. I forgot about this. I have Ford Sync and it works fine as well. I answer texts using S Voice on my watch and still make phone calls over Sync.
I am using the Gear in combination with a Note 3 and a Pair of Sony MDR-1RBT's and they work flawlessly. The Gear doesn't interfere with Bluetooth Audio on the phone.

Hi,
IF this is the case why spend a fortune on the gear and not make use of its potential? Why not purchase the new Sony 11? That would give you the notifications you require plus the ability to use a BT head set?
Just a thought.

I don't think its very feasible for the vast majority of people to use the watch as a loudspeaker/phone for privacy issues + annoying everyone else.
I wasn't planning on getting the gear anyway as I don't think it's a good buy. (Given its price). I plan to wait until the gear 2 or agent smartwatch arrive. It would also be nice to also be able to use it see change tracks, view album art/info for music too while listening to music through bluetooth earphones too.
In essence, I don't agree that being forced to speak to the watch on loudspeaker in front of everyone is using the watch to its potential. I find this more a massive drawback than a positive. Being able to use my earphones to listen is, IMO, the full potential.
Hopefully this will be the case with all these watches, as it is the most logical.
It works for me now. The gear and my BT works now since I got back on to MI9 firmware

Hey There - I have the Sony SW 2, but was thinking of selling it to get the Gear, my question is how do you pair both the smartwatch and bluetooth to work simultaneously (to have the ability to use the watch to screen calls, and the headset to answer calls)?
Thanks

I use the set of NOTE3 + MW600 + Gear - so far it works fine.
However - I have MW1 headset and .... it does not work with NOTE 3 - each time You start the phone call it is necessary to manually activate "headset" on the phone!

What year sync do you have? I have a 2009 Sync and mine disconnects Sync from phone audio whenever I try to make a call. Reconnecting works for 5 seconds then disconnects. Even after disconnecting the gear from bluetooth, sync is still doing this now.
I am wondering if i can use the Galaxy S as a standalone after pairing it with my N4. I would like to use a bluetooth headset paired with the watch so i don't have to use the speaker mode. IS that possible? Has anyone tried this?
On GV09 the BT headset works

On the chinese GV09s / (U8 ?) phone, you can successfully connect a BT headset directly
In BT dialer, you can select 'new device' and next put your BT headset in pairing.
The BT headset can be used for 'local music', (SIM) direct phone, radio etcetera. It works nice

[Q] Headset not clear

Hi guys,
I am facing trouble while using a head set with my phone for making calls. The person at the other end is hearing noises and distortions making the call quality really poor and making the headset useless. I tried with many headsets but its it till there. Without the head set the call quality is pretty fine.
The odd thing is that while doing voice calls through Skype, this issue does not pop up.
I am using 16gb s advance running stock JB android. Does anyone else face this issue?
Thanks.

I was using headset that I got from the phone, white one. And I did not have any problems before. On stock, did not try it on CM ROMs.

well if no one can help wit this can someone at least help me with how to change the dialer in the lg because just downloading a dialer app when i get incoming calls it still uses the stock dialer
I'm positive most can't help with the watch because they don't own a knock off Samsung gear smart watch. Without owning one, there's no way to know anything about your issue. In regards to the dialer app which one are you using? Sometimes they require root but they'll tell you that in the description.

Mic doesn't work in some calls... ?

Friends... My note 8 mic stopped to work.
In some calls... I can ear the person who is calling but they cant ear me.
Have the latest software installed. Nougat.
Should i wait for oneui to came out in March for Portugal?
Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance.
In my experience, I have had some issues like you describe, but I have found, in my case that they are most surely carrier-related, as they have happened since the days of my old beloved S3
Try using a different Cell Provider's Sim card and see if that works better. If it does then it is an issue with your Cell Provider, you woudl haev to contact them and ask them to resolve it.
Hi guys
I have a galaxy note 8 with a bad mic (the upper one) it just record static, but the lower one is working well... When I'm on a call or recording a video the audio is very bad due the defective microphone is used for noise suppression, anyone know how to disable the upper microphone? Or set the source for just the lower one?
