Ive been hearing that if you dont use a samsung phone, the watches will not be able to use all of the features. Im looking at the new Galaxy watch or the older s3 frontier.
Everything normal. Sometimes do not show "aswer icon" on watch, but not all time. Multiple Bluetooth devices now works.
Incoming call notification from WhatsApp, skype, viber still not work, but this issue was with Samsung phone too.

None here. I do get random drops in Pandora while driving.
this is getting really frustrating, especially when my old galaxy nexus would auto connect with no issues. I've cleared the cars phone book and the previously paired phones and i unpaired and paired the phone several times and still wouldn't auto connect after its initial pairing.

I have the exact same issue. I too am coming from a Galaxy Nexus which would auto connect to a GOgroove FlexSMART X2 Mini in my car. Unfortunately I am unable to get my Verizon LG G3 to auto-connect. I am able to manually toggle it to connect. What is weird is that it will auto connect to a Logitech Mini Boombox that is also paired to the phone.
well it seems to be working now. Took care of some errands this morning and so far its been auto syncing every time i get back in the car. I didn't do anything to the phone. The battery did die over night and i fully charged it this morning while it was off prior to me leaving.
spoke to soon! after a while the phone stopped auto syncing. Seems the fix is the restart the phone and then all is well, i cycle the car off and on several times after restarting the phone and it would auto sync with no problems. I hope they fix this issue with the next software upgrade
Did some more troubleshooting and discovered something interesting. On certain paired bluetooth devices (e.g. Logitech Mini Boombox) it doesn't matter if the device is powered on before the phone's bluetooth is turned on, the device will auto-connect to the phone. On the other hand, other paired bluetooth devices (e.g. GOgroove FlexSMART X2 Mini), if the device is on before the phone's bluetooth is on it will not auto-connect but if the phone's bluetooth is on before the device is powered on they will auto-connect.
Mine is auto syncing with my Merc (Comand Online) but the G3 keeps having a popup message saying "headset disconnected" every 5 seconds...
But I can make extensive calls and everything is synced (call history, sms, contacts).
Any idea how to get rid of the annoying popup ?
Ok, found out by myself
Apparently the G3 tried to connect to bluetooth audio streaming mode... It's off by default on my car kit. I disabled the latter in the G3 bluetooth parameters for my car kit and now I don't have this annoying popup anymore !
Hi guys,
I have a Galaxy S4 T-mobile SGH-M919 and it's Android 4.4.4 from Samsung (Original ROM) right now. I also have a Moto 360 Running the latest Android Wear 4.4w.2.
I encountered a serious bug.
So when my S4 is paired to my Moto 360, and if I am in a phone call, after a few mins (usually after 5 mins in), the sound would suddenly disappear. The other party whom I'm talking to can still hear me but I hear nothing. Complete silence.
When the sound goes off, I can just hang up and redial and then the call would be fine for a few mins before the same issue happens again. This is annoying.
I'm not sure if anyone has ever encountered this. I tried googling this and it seems no one has experienced the same issue with the same devices (Galaxy S4 T-mo and Moto 360). I've read that some people had similar issues with other bluetooth devices and their phones (or cars) and some say that it has something to do with my phone being connected with another device (in my case, the Moto 360) via bluetooth. I think when my Bluetooth is off, there is no issue at all.
If any of you has the same devices (Galaxy S4 T-mobile and Moto 360) and preferably the same firmware versions installed in both devices, give this a try. Simply connect your phone to your smartwatch and make a phone call. Try to wait for about 5-7mins into the call and see if if you experience this issue as well.
Is there a fix or workaround for this? This is ridiculously stupid. I should be able to make calls while my phone is connected to my Moto 360 as well.
Hi there,
I am using the elephone p8000 and would like to use a notification watch.
Right now I have the mi band which is good, but a bit ugly and not able to show the time.
That's why I was looking for a watch that would vibrate when a call was incoming.
My first try was the cogito watch classic but apparently the Bluetooth didn't work good together.
Now I am about to order the Elephone w2.
Does anyone have any experience with that combo or has another idea for a rather simple notification watch that is working with this phone?
Thanks in advance
I have a martian smart watch this seems to work fine with the p8000

Thx for the feedback. I hope that there is no problem with watches I'm general then and that the w2 will work.
No loudspeaked
Hi,

Oh wtf?
Hi,
I have that watch now and am more or less happy with it. More because it seems to be working, less because it really lacks the vibration on new notifications for me.
That is all I'd need from a "smart" / notification watch, but I don't get it in the w2.
And as the bluetooth apparently is really bad and my last other watch wasn't working, I won't check other watches on the P8000 anymore and wait unitl I have another phone.

I use a Huawei watch with P8000 and it works perfectly.
Oh, would you mind telling which one exactly?

There is only 1 Huawei watch. Different cases/straps but internal hardware is same throughout. Had a LG Watch R before and this also worked. No problems using watch for notifications and car Bluetooth for calls simultaneously.
Ok thx
I've been using a Huawei Honor Band Zero for months. In the beginning it didn't work with the P8000 but did ok with other phones. It was solved after Huawei released the first firmware upgrade (there have been around 6 more updates after the first one). No problems with calls, since the Honor Band Zero doesn't have a microphone and only allows you to reject calls, and not answer them. It's more like a Mi Band but with wristwatch functions and appearance
Can you tell something about that watch? Is it good with vibrations when receiving also WhatsApp and so on?
Hi, right more I have a Moto 360 2nd gen and it works like a charm. Just for reference if somebody is looking into that thread
Hi everyone,
I'm having a problem that I think shouldn't happen on this phone.
I'm stock with the latest January update on Android 10.
Info: this problem was present before the update to 10.
Whenever I connect any Bluetooth device (airpods, car, moto intercom ,etc) I have to manually unpause the music to get it to start.
This happens on every player (Samsung Music, Google Play, YouTube premium, etc)
This is the first Android phone I have that doesn't do this and that shouldn't be seeing it's top tier.
I've looked online and it seems that all Samsung phones have this feature and the only topics I get are how to disable it !?
Can anyone shed some light ? Is it happening to you as well ?
Thanks
I may not have the answer that you want to hear but I did find a temporary solution. There's an app in the play store nRF Connect that works. Slide over to bonded, put devices in pairing mode and hit scan and wah lah. Any questions I'll do the best I can to help.
I've noticed the same on my galaxy buds, but when I connect another pair of wireless earbuds that i sometimes use they connect as soon as i turn them on when Bluetooth is activated, without me manually having to go into the settings and do it. Not sure the reason for this. Would've thought the earbuds that's actually made by Samsung would be the ones connecting right away.

Hej...
I don't if this would help You...
When I got the Note 10+ there's Was, out of the box on initial settings, active few Bixby Routines... and that, till i figure out this, was driving me crazy... When I turn Bixby Routines off everything back to normal...
Well I've had a similar problem. For me the issue is that it always autostart even tho I have BT autoplay unchecked in the car. If I have listen to any music, audio books, podcasts and turn them of when I exit the car, not leave them in the background, they will start playing even if the cars media system is offline.
Works perfectly with my wifes OnePlus 6, but not for me. Extreamly annoying to noticed that the audio book is playing after a 60min drive and I haven't heard anything..
I tried the app Tasker, it was a compleat waste of $4 for me anyway, didn't work, will try nRF Connect now.
I don't want to have BT of due to that I aways have my Jabra buds with me so that I can talk while driving if needed.
Is there a way to turn off call connection under the Bluetooth settings? When I do this the watch disconnects. For some reason every time I'm on a call. Sometimes the phone will switch to the settings as if I want to talk through the watch. I literally never want to talk through the watch. It seems like this is the only option to keep the watch connected through Bluetooth. I'm using this watch with a oneplus 7t. When I was using it with the Galaxy note 10 plus the same issue was happening.
