I am aware that you can connect your gear and Bluetooth headset to share with your phone via the gear. However my question is...is this a feature specific to the note 3/Samsung phones? I am on a nexus 5 and am unable to share the connection. Unless I've missed a step can anyone tell me if I can do this on the N5 and if so what the process is? Thank you in advance.

If you accept call on the phone it will direct call to your wired headset

Hmmm let's say that I have my phone on the pocket, handsfree connected to my phone and I accept call from gear. The sound goes to gear or the handsfree?

... To the Gear. But the gear doesn't ring quite often. At least for me. It doesn't show all the notifications..
Ok. I got it. But my question was if the sound of conversation will go to the hands free or not....

In my car it seams to go to both. When someone is calling me both the handfree in car and Gear are ringing. I have not tried to answer from the watch, but I assume I can talk to whatever device I answer on.
When I would connect my GN2 to the stereo in my car, it would work fine hands free while mounted to the dash. Sound came through speakers and if I talked somewhat loudly, people heard me fine. Now when I do the same thing with the note 3, people complain of echos and talk back no matter how much I turn down the volume of the stereo. Am I missing a setting or this yet another step back for the Note 3?

Is there a way for the gg auto reconnect to the phone if it goes out of range and then comes back in range? Not sure it is something I need to do with the gear or the phone itself.
I hate having to manually reconnect my gg.

Mine reconnects automatically. Wonder if it is buried in the settings somewhere.

Good to know... You using a note 3? I have a gn2. Maybe the issue. Will have to do some digging.

The problem is not to have Android 4.3
On S4 with 4.2.2 it did not reconnect itself. With 4.3 it does.

it s true: with 4.3, reconnection is done, and, surprise: I can connect my S4 with my gg AND my car at the same time !! (not with 4.2.2) => very useful.

I had no problems with 4.2.2 reconnecting or car, but 4.3 definitely more reliable reconnecting to watch
Thanks guys... Guess I will have to wait for update

The issue is because they updated the gear manager for the phone but not the gear software itself yet for the United States. There are fixes for this in this forum do a search for Official update for the Gear November 15, or look for a header with that in it. Basically the fix is putting the UK or British version of the gear software onto the gear and the notification start working again. You do not even have to route the gear to accomplish this. Sorry I'm too new to know how to post links to those articles but searching you'll find plenty.
Thx

Hi all..
Managed to get this phone on early upgrade as my S4 wifi broke after an update.
Anyway very pleased to see that it can pair a dualshock 3.. I tried this and connected it up and phone recognised it then said Unplug to use wireless..
After unplugging the dualshock it won't pair wireless
Any ideas guys..
Cheers

Do you mean Bluetooth, right? The bluetooth have to be on.
