I preorder the X and 360 and was wonder if its possible to use the hint as well?
Are there any pros and con's in using them at the same time?
Will one be disable?
I have all three and they work seamlessly together.
You can still use the Bluetooth on your phone with other devices are connected?

Yes, at least in the case of my GS3. I can have a car stereo, headset, and pebble "now 360" paired up simultaneously.

I have a X and S4 active and my 360 can only connect to 1 without resetting and pairing. Is there a way to connect to both phones without having to disconnect and pair each time.

I don't think you can connect the Moto 360 to two phones. You have to choose one

I would prefer that Motorola gave an option to permit touchless control to work with passwords - but that is not the case
I decided to explore finding a Bluetooth dongle I could carry as a trusted Bluetooth device and found http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008NH3IEW/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 on amazon. While this works, there is a gotcha. What I am looking for is the dongle to keep the moto x unlocked while in my possession. When I am in my vehicle - I want the moto x to pair with the vehicle bluetooth.... The trouble is that the dongle I found presents itself to the phone as a headset, the same device type as the vehicle and I believe that the phone can only use one headset at a time. I could explore prioritizing the vehicle as higher than the dongle - but the dongle acts as an alarm and beeps if it loses connection with the phone....
soooo - does anyone know of a bluetooth dongle that is priced at throw-away prices that I can use as a trusted BT that I can carry - while permitting me to ALSO use the BT in my vehicle? This has to pass the "wife" test and just work without doing anything as it is for her phone.
The BETTER solution would be for Motorola to permit touchless to be configured to work while a phone is locked. I do not understand the security issues with enabling this functionality -- and even if there is to permit a user to make a decision. Afterall the touchless control is supposed to only respond to the owner - and while it is not perfect, it is not so bad. Come on Motorola - give us this option.

"Works with iOS and Android 4.3 devices" so it wont work on the Moto X until it is updated?

doh... missed that. lemme take a look
after reading it a couple of times it looks like only the gesture control requires 4.3. i can't imagine that just hooking up a bluetooth dongle would require that much
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 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
Hello people, i have a big problem with my G2,it can stay connected with Galaxy Gear and a bluetooth headset...Anyone here who manage to connect both of them?I can connect each but is easy to me to answer from the Gear and to speak at the headset(with the Gear all people around can hear my conversation).Can this phone connect with 2 bluetooth devices at the same time?

For the final question; yes, I've connected to my Bluetooth GPS and Bluetooth tethered to my Nexus 7 a few times.
As for the rest; no idea. Since they're both audio device you might have to choose which one gets the audio etc.

I have the same problem using G2 with my Sony Smartwatch 2 and my Volkswagen Golf VII.
I can connect each but not at the same time.

I have no problem, with pebble and BT plantronitsc voyager pro HD.
Or with pebble and my BT car setup.
ouu and I had even connected the third one but I could not get it pair, I dond0t know my pin number. (But to think of it maybe it was the nr.3 BT that didn't want to connect)
I connect my LG Tone BT headsets and my MacBook and can hop from one to another without problems.
I can connect to my Bluetooth speaker and car ODBII scanner at the same time.
Yes bluetooth 4.0 can support 7 or 8 connections
I am experiencing issues with streaming audio via Bluetooth from my phone (HTC Jewel) while connected to Samsung Gear Live; audio streams but pauses literally every second. Anyone else experiencing this?
No probs with my s4 i9505
NO issues with Galaxy S5 streaming to the car
Thanks for confirming folks! I'll try with a different rom & if persists, it is just the reason I need to upgrade (S5 or Nexus 5 - decisions, decisions).

So just to confirm, you can pair this watch and your car to your phone at the same time? I am thinking about getting this watch but not being able to do so would be a deal breaker.

Hey, I am new here. I purchased an LG G Watch R and will get it in a few days!
I am planning to use it at the gym. Will I be able to connect my phone and my Bluetooth headphones to the watch? I want to use the media controls on the watch to change the songs that are loaded on my phone. I know Bluetooth doesn't usually allow you to connect to more than one device; so I was wondering if this would work?

Thanks, I am supposed to get it today, so I'll post back what I find.
Using Sony BT with watch on note 4, works a treat.
Plantronics BackBeat Go (PLT_BBTGO2) are great for this.
what does the music playback do to the battery life?
