Can you stop your phone from searching for the watch? - LG Watch Urbane

I switch between my Urbane and a Galaxy Gear S2. When I am wearing the Gear, my phone will periodically tell me it can't connect to my Urbane and to click to reconnect. On the older version of Android Wear, I could switch off the connection. Now, I can't find anywhere to switch off the connection. Am I missing something? Thanks!

When I click the three dots, I get: VIEW TUTORIAL, HELP & FEEDBACK, ABOUT. No option to disconnect from the watch.

Ah. You have the older version of the Android Wear app. It's now 1.4.0 and that's when they take away the disconnect option (for whatever reason... no idea). Thanks for posting those though, did help.

I just got the watch so I might be too late to reply. I'm on version 1.4.0.2xxxx and I do have the disconnect option.

Calls not working

Okay - If I use the Gear to dial out or from log, it seems to work okay. When I receive a call and slide control to answer, I get the first word, like "hello", and then nothing! Connecting still shows live, but I can't hear them and it doesn't look like they can hear me. Happens every single time. Anyone else run into this?
Are you using the latest version of gear manager?

Not really sure. I checked for updates and it seems to be up-to-date. What is the latest version?

I am running 1.4.102504 - Came out 10/28/2013
I had that problem once and a simple reboot of my phone and a reset of the watch fixed it.

Two Gears, One Note

I am now the owner of two Gears thanks to AT&T. I have an orange for everyday and black for business/formal events. I am starting to explore switching between the two. Anyone else connecting multiple Gears to one phone, yet?
When you use Gear manager to switch back and forth it has to sync with the gear each time. I switched using the settings>Bluetooth and gear manager shows the new one connected, but it doesn't have record of the apps that are installed.
I guess you would just make sure the same apps are on each watch.
Looking forward to feedback
Well, you can only connect one gear to a phone or one phone to a watch. Can't see it being easy to work with both :s

I also have two and connected them both is no problem even at the same time but it sometimes makes you restore on reconnect to other device. loose all but stock apps.
Update
I was mistaken. Do not use gear manager to switch between watches.
Go to Bluetooth devices and switch there. I have renamed each watch for identification.
When you switch and go into gear manager, you will find the apps are now the apps on the newly connected watch

Not at the same time, was looking for an easy way to switch. Found it. Just switch in Bluetooth devices, not gear manager

Did you eve find a good solution! I have two gears and a Note 3. I am trying to find the correct way to get them to work without having to go through the Restore Process every-time I switch Gears. (I have tried using the Switch through Bluetooth Method) It is still asking to setup as new with option to restore.

Can't sync Gear Live and One Plus One

Guys,
Just got my one plus one phone and I cannot get the gear like WATCH to connect to it. Have already uninstalled the application from the phone and still doesn't work. Have rebooted the watch twice and still doesn't pair up with the app. Any other suggestions that I can try to make these to connect one another?
Ian. B
Fixed: reset Gear and all is working.

The Gear Live is an Android Wear device - it supports all Android phones with Android 4.3 and above. You probably have the Galaxy Gear or Gear 2 which is specifically for Samsung Android phones.

My Samsung Gear Live used to be paired with my Nexus 5 which got replaced by a OnePlus One.
Do I really need to reset the watch just to re-pair it with a different phone?
UPDATE:
I just found the answer @ Google's official Android Wear help page (https://support.google.com/androidwear/answer/6058799?hl=en-GB).
You can switch which phone or tablet your watch is paired with, but you need to reset your watch to factory settings first.

Profile "do not disturb" at work‏

Hi,
I am a profile "do not disturb" that automatically changes every two weeks.
The Week 1 morning from 6am at 13:20. And week 2, to 1:20 p.m. to 8:40 p.m..
I can try with the even and odd week? But I do not know how.
Can you help me please?
Is there wifi at work? You don't have to be connected, it can trigger your profile just by detecting it.
