Hello, I recently got my dad a LG G Watch R, and it seems that his work phone does not allow data transfers over bluetooth. I was wondering if there was any other way to update the watch without using bluetooth, or if it's possible to update the watch with my phone, and then transfer the watch back to his phone? Any help would be greatly appreciated, I would hate to have to return the watch because of technical difficulties.

If the work phone does not allow data transfer over Bluetooth, then why are you attempting to connect the watch to the phone? Without Bluetooth, the watch won't work as intended unless you connect it to WiFi which requires a Bluetooth connection to initiate it anyway.

For all who cannot connect G Watch R to phones, here is my guide to help:
1. Reset your android wear device.
------------------------------------------------------
2. When prompted, USE ANDROID WEAR(not bluetooth menu) to connect the Android device to your watch.
------------------------------------------------------
3. Make sure to say yes to the connection if it is indeed your two devices.
------------------------------------------------------
4. Boom, and whenever they cannot connect again or you get a new phone, repeat these steps.
Hope this helps the many of users having problems.(Included me at first) Please give me thanks if this helped you. Glad to help!

Hi All,
I just had my LG G4 few weeks now with no rooted but I am running into an issue.
I try to connect to my PC but the tethering keeps on/off non-stop. PC can't do anything to connect to G4 if I need to transfer large file, like songs.
what happen to my G4 or is it any special way to connect to PC ? I am new to LG. ( I have no problem with Note 3 whatsoever)
any suggestion will help
Please help, Thanks
Hi!
I have an lg g watch r, the device works with LeeDroid Urban Port ROM. I would have liked put on the device another rom but i can't connect the device to my computer. I have tried everything what i read in the xda forum that i would solve this problem.Nothing helped. The debugging mode is enabled in this device and adb mode is working, windows 10 op.system runs in my computer and newest google drivers are on it. Everything is ready that two device will connect. When i connect the device to the usb cable, nothing happened.
I think that the lg g watch r dock is wrong altough the dock charges the lg g watch r.
Please help me.
Thanks
Hi!
I carried my watch in the LG central service. I said the assistant that the watch was working, i can pair it with the phone, almost everything was good except i can't pair it with the computer. The computer can't see the watch.
The assistant said that the mainboard of the watch was wrong, despite of he didn't investigate the watch, because i used LeeDroid rom it messed up the watch.
Is it possible?
as title
it shouldn't be more difficult than connecting it to a phone. Simply install the Galaxy Wearable app on your tablet and make the connection.
If your watch is already connected to a phone or another tablet, choose Connect to new phone on your watch (Settings, than the last option).
You cant connect your watch to more than 1 device.

hi
galaxy wearable app on tablet dont show smart watches.
Hello All.
I'm quite new in this Tizen world. don't know if someone worked to make it work.
Is there any way to switch my paired GWA2 from Samsung phone, where it loads the SO with the plenty of apps and health options like ecg an bp, to iPhone, without wipe and loose all "Samsung Exclusive" options?
I know it is not possible to do it the regular way. I'm able to pair my watch with Samsung and change it to iPhone, but it didn't get anything from there, like notification and even connection with the Samsung watch app, exception by receiving calls, cause it is done by different bt connection.
Is the only option using the watch as an standalone device in such case?
You will loose the BP,ECG but there is a tutorial step by step how to install them back in your phone manual,if you are worried about your achivements and other STATS they are saved in your account (samsung one)so make sure you log in with the correct details
Thanks for answering @oache . However, this is exactly what im trying to avoid. Even disconnecting from bluetooth via shell, when I connect to the iphone, it shows connected through the bluetooth (both connections), but completely dead, no traffic at all and Galaxy watch app on iphone can't see the connected watch.
