Has anyone had success connecting their Gear S3 with DP3 on a Pixel 2 XL? For me the Samsung Gear App crashes after pairing.
Help?
Mine seems to be working perfectly so far (not tried taking any calls via the watch yet though), on Monday I was all set to return the 2XL as it kept dropping my watch constantly. Tuesday it did not drop at all on DP2, I installed DP3 yesterday it has also not dropped once. I took the OTA update, so did not need to re-pair with the phone though, wish I knew if it was going to be reliably connected long term. Mine does not seem to have any pattern as to when the phone drops the connection to the watch.
Of course, I have an RMA now to return the phone for a full refund so am now torn as to whether to return it or not.
Everything is ok. But recently i've downloaded custom samsung app set with fix. Here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/gear-s3/help/gear-s3-gear-devices-incompatibility-t3789231

Hi everyone, I received the Galaxy Nexus last night from Google Play. Out of the box, I was able to connect to the network (make calls, send texts, etc.). I was charging my phone at night and then I realized that I was no longer connected to the T-Mobile network. The triangle is empty now and I can't do anything on the network anymore. I ran the Jelly Bean 4.1 OS upgrade as soon as we took the phone out of the box. I checked the APN settings and I noticed that it was completely blank but I was unable to successfully add a new one. I can try to create a new one and input all the settings but it doesn't seem like it was saved.
I just took it up with T-Mobile and told them to update my line to this phone, and they assured me that it would work in 2 hours, but I won't be holding my breath. At the same time, I contacted Google and they unfortunately said that they cannot do anything in this case and I would have to take it up with Samsung... I don't really want to do that and I hope that I don't have a faulty device..
Also, I never rooted it and everything is completely stock.
ANY HELP??

I have the same issue on my international one. It has been decided it has a hardware failure. I have no warranty though. I might buy one with a broken screen and swap. You have a warranty use it.

Same issue here. I had the phone for months (stock ROMs) and was perfectly happy. Few days back, connection dropped at random and the only way to fix it was through a reboot. Then, after 2 or 3 days, no connection whatsoever, it doesn't even "find" the sim card, so it seems as it's no longer asking for my sim pin code.
Tried about everything, even wiping and reflashing every stock ROM and radio I could get my hands on (including 4.2.1, 4.1.2 and 4.0.4), to no avail. I'm about to give up and return it to Samsung for repair. We're not the only ones, that for sure...
I am on my 3rd GS3. The issue I am having is that my Navigation programs (default and telenav) will search and search for satellites, but won't connect. But when I restart my phone, it will work fine for a day or two then back to no connection.
I have spoken to Sprint and this is an unreported problem... until me. So, Sprint will replace my device. I am unrooted and completely stock. I know that Sprint is in Nashville, TN working on installing the 4gLTE towers. It isn't live yet, but they will turn on and off periodically.
I have searched these threads and I have not heard of any others with this issue. My first GS3 was rooted, but I have not done the two replacements. This has only occurred on an unrooted device.
Has anyone heard of this issue and know a resolution? I am considering rooting again to see if that is a fix. This is not a horrible issue, it is much better than a device that won't boot, but any help is greatly appreciated.

Currently Rooted running the people's rom (3.06) GPS works flawlessly. I have tested and used Scout (By Telenav) Telenav, and Google Maps with no issues at all (tested in FL, MS, And parts of AL during my drive there and back) Haven't had any issues tho.
Mine worked fine while unrooted but started not initializing for startup apps that needed it after i rooted it. I would have to go to the app directly for it to start the GPS. Otherwise the app would continuously look for location. Unfortunately I haven't been able to narrow it down to any one Rom or kernel. Any one else with this issue?

I have the same issue but haven't been able to figure out the cause either. Notice it mostly when I set my destination from my house, and wifi connected, then change location after leaving, and phone has kicked over to 3G.

Before I returned my phone for another replacement, I decided to delete all of the apps that I had downloaded. I then rebooted my phone. After 2 days, it worked fine. I then began installing apps one by one. I figured the problem had to be app specific and only apps that use gps. There was one of two apps I decided was the culprit: Facebook or JuiceDefender. I installed Facebook and it worked fine for 2 days. Ample time for the issue to appear. I have figured out that all along JuiceDefender is the problem. It is shutting off GPS like it is supposed to, but not turning it on when it is supposed to. The problem started when I reverted to stock and took the OTA Android update. I am just embarrassed that it took until now to look at the apps as the problem and not the phone. I am going to contact JD and let them know what I have found. I hope there can be a fix, JD really works well... except for my gps!
Anyways, look at apps first as the problem child before running to a repair shop (like I did!) .
Hope this helps others...

JD is designed to disable data connection to conserve battery, You can set it for a threshold where it will keep the connection alive if it's transmitting information back and forth.. (Must have Ultimate for that i believe) So if your disabling the data connection, then it'll kill GPS.
It is set on balanced. That is why I didn't think of juice defender first. Never had this issue until android updated.

I am having the same problem. My GPS will work, but for me, it's only for about 15 mins or so (while in an App that starts it). Then, if I stay in the app, it will just lose connection. If I exit the App, and the GPS turns off, then when I go back it, it will not turn on again. It isn't like it is searching and it doesn't get a signal...it never turns on. The only thing to bring it back is to reboot. I noticed it while on a custom ROM (TPR) and thought it must be that, so I flashed back to stock. Still the same thing. I then tried doing a factory reset. Still not working properly. Anyone have any other ideas?
Thanks in advance.

I took it in to Sprint they said it was the bad antenna and will give me a refurbish phone. This phone is less than a month old and why I will take a refurbish phone. Like I bought a brand new car and come in for a fix and they took me to the use car lot for a factory certificated car.
So I sent to Samsung and they claimed replacing a part and got the phone back, same problem is still happening.
Anyone can help us on this. It seems a common issue to a few of us.
Here is a simple GPS fix that works well.

Okay so i have a T-Mobile S4 it is now running 4.3, The phone was rooted and running the Google Edition custom rom on 4.2.2 when this issues started.
When i first rooted the phone and installed the Google Rom it worked fine, i could send pix to iphone and receive them from iphone (yes ive tested it with many iphone users and its always the same outcome) however a few weeks ago they stopped receiving any pic text i would send and i would receive theirs as well. I have tried this on wi-fi and just on my cellular network and it still doesnt work.
So last night i thought it might be due to the face i need to update to 4.3, so i un-root my phone, factory reset it so its back to 100% stock, update to 4.3 and im still having the same issue. It works fine with anyone using a Android device, but 90% of my friends and my GF have iphone so this is starting to piss me off...
any info would really help me out. and i didnt a search but nothing to the effect of my problem came up...
The problem is not with your phone, its because apple sucks.

I got my note 4 Thursday and rooted Friday night using the Tmobile auto root. Since then I am having problems making and receiving sms and calls. I am connected to wifi with no problems and can use regular data with no problems. I have AdBlocker Plus installed and thought that was the problem as I was also having the problem before I rooted. I have disabled ABP and still have the problem. Any ideas? I need my phone to actually work

I'm not rooted and I am having the same problems....using a landline I called mine and it went straight to voicemail. tried making a call and suddenly I was flooded with text I hadnt recieved all day.....Not too happy right now...
Are any of you on "spark"? I'm not rooted and I've missed a call and a few texts I've sent haven't gone through. Just got phone yesterday. My neighbor is on the s5 and has same issues with spark. Not rooted. Just curious.

what is "spark"? I wasn't having any problems with my note 2 prior to this. Since I did something to fix it this morning, I haven't had the problem. I have no idea if it's resolved or if whatever I did was just temporary. I've called from my other phone several times and have been getting texts since.
Does anyone have problems with the connection being stable? Or do I have a faulty device? When I'm out, my connection sometimes seem to be okay, but when I arrive home, that's when the connection doesn't work. I've tried restoring back to factory several times with rebooting of the phone several times as well with no luck.
I'm running Android Wear 1.3.0.2176821, Google Play Services 8.1.20 (2283517-534), and Android 5.1.1 on my watch.
On my phone, I have a OnePlus One running CM12S (5.1.1), Android Wear 1.3.0.2284253, and Google Play Services 8.1.15 (2250126-238)
Any help or ideas how to fix? Thanks.
Can't help you with a fix, but I can say that I have had no connection problems. I assume you are talking about bluetooth connection from watch to phone, not a wifi connection problem?

Yes, I am having problems with bluetooth connection. When I open the Android Wear app on my phone, it is constantly saying "Trying to connect..." =(
I would assume that the watches are the same as far as the software goes. I don't know what one plus one is, but my phone info is below. I took mine back because of HRM problems, the replacement works much better. I'd say to just take it back as defective and get a replacement....
On my Phone:
Android 5.01,
Android Wear 1.3.0.2250989
Play Services 8.1.15

I have a Oneplus One and it connects to my watch using BT just fine. The only time it has problem is when I put some distance between my phone and my watch (ie walk outside without my phone), it sometimes can't reconnect. Turning BT off and then back on the phone usually fix it. Now I leave WiFi on so as long as the phone and watch are within the same wireless environment, they wouldn't disconnect

Thanks! I've actually tried that too, and for some reason, it works fine at work. But when I'm home or somewhere else, the watch just has a hard-to-impossible time to connect back to my phone. Even at home, the wi-fi is so spotty with it that it constantly disconnects. I ended up just returning it and waiting for them to order it again. I hope my next one works better!
I've observed the same problem as OP, with the same mismatching versions on the phone and watch for Android Wear and Google Play Services [except Google Play Services that's at 8.1.15 (2250156230) on my Nexus 6, which runs latest factory 5.1.1].
Have needed to reboot the phone to sort it out. Also, a card appeared on the watch, telling me I had to install the Google Play Services on the phone, as the watch though it wasn't.
Similar problem
Hey, a similar problem here, I changed my ROM from Resurrection Remix to lineage OS (both on 7.1) and when I did it, my Android Wear app does not recognize my huawei watch, I went back to Resurrection but when I connected the watch, it did not received the notifications, then I updated manually to A.Wear 2.0 and the problem is the same, but now I can’t even connect to other smartphones, I do not know what it happened.
