The watch does not display incoming phone calls from phone nor does it allow me to make calls from my phone.
I have a sim card in the watch (with a different number from the phone) and it does works fine but I would also like to see incoming call from phone as well use the watch to call from the phone.
My watch is paired and connected to my phone (Samsung 8)
Please help me to configure . Thanks

I have a note 3 stock 5.0 and stock gear 2 with all updates. My gear receives all notifications except phone calls. I even get missed call notifications. I can also use gear 2 dialer to make phone calls. I have tried restarting phone and restarting gear 2. Even tried connecting and disconnecting gear 2. Also toggle bluetooth. Watch is connected in bluetooth to phone audio.
Is there some setting I am missing. Everything works except I cannot reject or receive a phone call. Gear does not respond at all when phone is ringing. Please help if you can. I really need this function. I know it used to work. I cann9t find phone as a separate item on the notifications list. I don't know if it should be there to check.
I have the Gear s2 LTE working with my Note 5. Call forwarding (calls forwarded to watch from phone) is seamless and works automatically when the Bluetooth connection is disconnected and reconnected. Also, when the phone and the watch are connected via Bluetooth calls made and answered on the watch stay on the watch and calls made and answered on the phone stay on the phone. Works great. I tried it with my Nexus 6 and the the call forwarding and reconnecting is manual. The S2 works just ok with a non Samsung phone. I just don't like that's not Android. I don't think the app development will be that good. So I'm thinking that once the Urbane 2 LTE starts selling again , I might get it. But.. my question is to the current owners of the watch. How does it handle call forwarding between phone and watch and what about calling and answering, does it operate like how I described my S2 with my Note 5? Thanks
Hi,
By default when i use ok google call XYZ the call is being made on the watch itself and not on the mobile phone.
How can i make or switch between watch call or bluetooth call on my phone?

If you're paired to phone via Bluetooth, make sure you're not connected to number sync... In order to use the voice diameter to initiate a call from your phone: settings -> Bluetooth -> enable phone audio: ON
Note when you "OK Google, call Batman" it will dial through your phone (if data is enabled it will prompt you to choose phone or watch).
Two annoyances:
1. Even though it's now using your phone, it will default to the watch speaker and microphone- obviously you can change on your phone's call screen to phone. Unfortunately, without phone audio enabled in Bluetooth it will not route calls through your phone.
2. If numbersync is on, the watch will assume it's a phone, even if paired. But, you just have to toggle it off (rather than disassociating).
Good luck!

Hi.
I have a similar problem. In the LG Watch Urbane 1 gen all worked fine, in 2 I have a problem because I am using a Bluetooth headset. And I wanted to call with a Bluetooth set instead of a watch. If enabled "enable phone audio: ON" then the watch is ringing only by the watch, as I turn off it stops ringing completely. Is there any way to solve this problem?
Solved
I solved the problem using two applications "Bluetooth Auto Connect" and "MacroDroid".
Anyone else have this issue?
I get calendar , messages by text and email card notifications and it will vibrate my watch. If I get a phone call my phone will ring and\or vibrate but my watch will not vibrate nor show an incoming call.
I'm having the same issue with my zenwatch 2. Everything goes to my watch except calls. Never shows me who's calling.

I'll have to hook my ZW2 to my phone and test this myself.
Check whether "Phone audio" is enabled in phone's Bluetooth settings for paired watch.
Although this option should be checked only in case you want to use built-in speaker of watch (if it has one).
Did any of you guys set your phone up by NFC? There's a known issue, need too set it to manually.
I pair mine manually all the time. Never one used nfc to pair.
Hi all
I encountered "No signal" issue in my car handsfree system (I tried 2 different cars still the same) . I can pair and connect without any issue , I can even receive call or make call without any issue . The problem the handsfree system will always show "No Signal" but in fact my mobile phone signal is full . This issue made me fail to make call via the car handfree system, anyone encounter the same?
Yes. I have exactly the same issue on my brand new Volvo S90. It very occasionally says there is signal but most of the time reads "Emergency Call only". It all works though... I can always make and receive calls.

I do some more research just now and saw you and me is not alone , more and more user report the issue , hope Samsung can fix it ASAP. Although I can make and receive call without issue only if I want to make a call via the voice command then the car system will told "No Connection"
Hi Guys
I am having the same issue. I have a Renault kadjar and the Note 9 keeps saying the phone has no signal, when the phone is showing a number bars. I have tried disconnecting the Bluetooth on the car and disconnecting the Bluetooth on the phone and neither will re-establish a connection. The only thing that works is restarting the phone. That will force the car to connect to the phone.
It's a pain. I never had a problem with my S8 plus or my wifes Note 8.
Not just me then. Same issue with my 2012 Focus and the wifes 2014 Renault Captur. Phone connects fine, I can play media and answer calls but signal bar on the car display is zero so I cannot initiate a call from the car (only from the phone).

Hello,
I've the same problem with the same solution: turn off and ON the phone.
Anyone have a FINAL solution ?
Thank You
It is always a good idea to reboot your mobile device every once in a while as it will clear any data in the RAM that may cause issues.
