[Samsung Gear S] jongilluley:
As long as u have WiFi on the gear s off and your phone is signed into your Samsung account it will connect remotely and show from your phones number and not the gear.

Also make sure u select connect remotely on the gear manager settings
[Samsung Gear S] jordant2:
No matter what I do, I can't change my outgoing number to my cell phone number. I logged into my Samsung account, I even set my number in my profile. I turned off Bluetooth to force a remote connection and I see that when I dial out, it doesn't contact my phone at all. I have WiFi off on both devices and call forwarding on. This feature just seems to be disabled. Might be a deal breaker for me. So on the call forwarding on my phone and watch, should both numbers show as my watch's number?
[Samsung Gear S] foxbat121:
Are you sure about that? Only calls are forwarded by the network. Text messages have to be relayed by your phone (there is no text message forwarding on the network level). If you turn off the phone, the text message won't come from my understanding.

It might be carrier related. AT&T version of the watch on AT&T network can't change the outgoing number on watch.
[Samsung Gear S] jordant2:
Unfortunately it looks to be this way. Maybe I'll use my phone's sim in the watch and just have a watch and tablet.
[Samsung Gear S] John822:
That's how I want it to work, I wont buy it until I know it will work for sure. What carrier are you on?
[Samsung Gear S] bogdan_wrc:
so, just to be clear:

when no BT is paired, only SMS and voice are forwarded to the watch? no email, no whatsupp?

what options on watch-SIM should i enable to sync with phone? more data transfer or more minutes? my SIM is prepaid and its independent from the phone.
[Samsung Gear S] John822:
Did you find a way to make it work?
[Samsung Gear S] jordant2:
Nope, I ended up making the watch my main number and now my phone is the accessory! Problem solved!
[Samsung Gear S] John822:
did you swap sims

I tweeted AT&T to see if it's a glitch or something they blocked. I'll let you know.
[Samsung Gear S] sbrownla:
Lots of AT&T folks, is anyone willing to extract a PIT file for me using Heimdall so I can get my Gear S back up and running? I can explain how to do it. Not trying to hijack this thread, but I'm not finding any AT&T people ... or help.
[Samsung Gear S] jordant2:
I didn't have an adapter and my phone is an s5 so I went to the store. But it actually works really well. The watch can even receive picture messages.
[Samsung Gear S] John822:
I have an S5 as well, but I'm still confused on how you did it.

---------- Post added at 10:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:26 PM ----------

Wish I could help but I haven't bought it yet, waiting to see if I can get it to work like I want before buying.

No problem, thank you! Sorry to interrupt.
[Samsung Gear S] greatg:
A question about call forwarding

Well it seems here in Canada the carriers are not too eager to spend the money on setting up the infrastructure to fully support the Gear S. My question is - If I took the SIM card from a mobile (rocket stick) connection dongle, could I use this in the Gear S. Would the software on the Note 4 be able to properly reroute calls then to the watch?
[Samsung Gear S] sbrownla:
If your phone works with call-forwarding by itself (your phone plan supports call forwarding), it will very likely work with the Gear S. But the Gear S has to have its own sim that support its own calling and its own separate phone number. So if you are trying to use a data-plan sim in your Gear S, chances are call forwarding and calling will not work.

I have a Verizon phone and an AT&T Gear S. My Gear S has a pre-paid sim from an MVNO in it. When I activate call forwarding using Gear Manager on my phone, call forwarding works as advertised. If I try to set it up using just the Gear S through the Call settings, it does not typically work, even though it dials the *##### or whatever it does.

TL;DR: Use a nano sim with a voice and data plan and activate call forwarding through your phone to get it to work.
[Samsung Gear S] greatg:
That's the problem over here. No carrier has a plan set up for the Gear S. I'm not going to get a "full-blown" 2nd cell phone plan just to stick the SIM in the watch! I was hoping there was a way around this with the data SIM...
[Samsung Gear S] sbrownla:
The worst that could happen (yeah, I'm one to talk, :silly:) is that the watch will pop up "SIM Not Provisioned" which is what my watch did when I slapped a random data sim in it. It may also ask you for an unlock code at startup for the SIM, if the watch came locked ... which only seems to be an American carrier thing.

If the SIM is activated on a data plan, it's likely that it will send and receive data, but not calls.

I pay about $10 for 100 minutes and something like 50 megs, for a prepaid SIM and honestly, I hardly ever use it. That's how much carriers are charging for add-on plans here (with a lot more minutes and data), but what I have is enough to satisfy my curiosity.
[Samsung Gear S] jordant2:
Since the s5 doesn't take a nano, I went to the store and had them move my number into a nano Sim and move the watch's number to a micro. Now I have data set to always on and the watch is set to use the it's own number. Now the watch IS my phone. The phone has a number but I only use it to sync my hangouts notifications mostly (using notifications for gear s) and sync emails. I now do almost everything from the watch itself. Of course if I'm replying to an email I have use the phone. I hardly even need a phone.
[Samsung Gear S] bogdan_wrc:
so you have to activate the call forwarding from GEAR MANAGER?

what if i had the call forwarding activated from my private phone to my company phone from settings?

which one of them will work?

i plan to use also o prepaid SIM in gear S... and i want to figure out which plan to choose, more minutes or more mega of data transfer
[Samsung Gear S] sbrownla:
I just remember having to do call forwarding on my phone. Since my watch is bricked I can't describe it to you in greater detail.
[Samsung Gear S] foxbat121:
There is only one call forwarding entry per line. So, whoever sends the commands to the network last wins.
[Samsung Gear S] John822:
In the manual it states "If a Bluetooth connection between the two devices is not available, outgoing calls

will only be made from the Gear." that blows
[Samsung Gear S] foxbat121:
Why? Unless you have an AT&T version of the Gear S, you can choose to show your phone's number for outgoing calls. For AT&T version, it is disabled (I suspect it has a lot to do with AT&T network that won't allow you to change outgoing call IDs).
[Samsung Gear S] audri5:
I have T-Mobile and it looks like an option that is greyed our but in reality it is just information. If my watch and phone are connected via Bluetooth the watch shows my phone number if I make a call from the watch. If they are connected remotelly and I call from the watch it shows up as my watch number. Texts always show up as my phone number unless the watch is not connected at all, remote or Bluetooth and then they show up as the watch number. I too thought nobody needed to have the number to the watch but some people I know won't answer the call if it is from an unrecognized number.

---------- Post added at 10:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:10 PM ----------

Also, when I first got the watch I had to do all kinds of things to make it connect remotely and even then it was iffy. It seems as though the watch and phone have truly fallen into sync now. If I get to far away from my phone it automatically turns on call forwarding and cuts it off when I get within Bluetooth range again. And I didn't know until day before yesterday that if you turn off Bluetooth and wiFi on the watch it connects remotely and then you can turn the phone completely off and it still works perfect. All calls and texts come through. I had to call T-Mobile and have the ring time shortened on my phone so the watch had time to ring. Maybe when I did that it got them both in sync.
[Samsung Gear S] John822:
so T Mobile can't do it either? it's bizarre that some people have a watch from AT&T and a phone from verizon and they can get it to work. Screw it I'm not buying it, I'm not telling a hundred people I have a second phone number
[Samsung Gear S] gobraves00:
Weird Verizon works how it was intended. The main thing I see is different is Verizon watch doesn't need a Sim. I have had zero issues with my Verizon watch on Verizon network.
[Samsung Gear S] foxbat121:
It all comes down to a network feature that let you change your outgoing number/identity. It seems that GSM carriers don't support it while CDMA carriers do.
[Samsung Gear S] audri5:
I'm not sure this person reviewed the watch that is on the market now. You can not choose which number the call comes from when remotely connected. It shows the watches number if you call out from the watch. And I don't think people can "call your watch in the middle of the night". In test calls I did, if the watch number was called they went straight to voice mail. For the watch to ring the caller has to be calling your main phone number. I admit I have not tried this in "gear only" mode. I have only tried it when the watch was connected remotely whether the phone was on or off. Either way I think it was a preconcieved review and am not convinced they really tried the watch at all.

Are there things I would like to see changed? Absolutely. Would I give up this watch now that I have it? Never! (Until the next "best thing" comes down the pipeline!)
[Samsung Gear S] sweets55:
The auto forwarding doesn't work for me that much. I had T-Mobile just forward my phone to my watch. You can have them set the rings to go to your watch. Seems like this is better way then doing the auto forwarding from the Gear. Yes or no?
[Samsung Gear S] rcprater9:
T-Mobile & Samsung Reporting Connectivity Issues

I am rocking a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (Unrooted and Stock, So unlike me) Anyways, I have not had consistent luck in making the device forward calls to my Gear S when I am not in a Bluetooth Connection state. After T-Mobile sending me another device, and 2 phone calls to Samsung, they are saying that there is a known issue with calls not forwarding.

I thought it odd, because no one at T-Mobile mentioned that, and the Blogs aren't saying anything either. I am far from a noob, but I am starting to think that I am the only one that is having this issue. Please tell me that I am not crazy...

Somebody.
[Samsung Gear S] BACARDILIMON:
The watch will never show the phone number of the actual phone when you are connected remotely . It would create such issues with emergency call feature and the fcc would be fining left and right. The other thing is voice mails when I am away from phone get saved to watch not my phones voicemail. Sucks.

BAD ASS NOTE 4 + BAD ASS GEAR S
[Samsung Gear S] faded03cobra:
I got the same issue
[Samsung Gear S] rcprater9:
I tried that option device side (meaning I went into the call settings and forwarded the calls to the Gear S) but if you power cycle the phone it of course resets back to its regular settings. Here lately, calls have been forwarding on a regular basis. Perhaps T-Mobile got everything worked out.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] binary_mind:
I think i may have come up with a way to CID unlock the G4 version of HTC Prophet, but i need help to complete some gaps.

As far as i can tell (and please correct me if i'm wrong) the only reason why the "downgrade&unlockcid" procedure doesn't work is because "pdocwrite.exe" can't write back the unlocked file. So, if we could find a way to write that information the problem should be solved...

I think that by performing the following steps one could do the unlocking:

- create an ActiveSync connection;

- run "unlockcid.bat" to get the "acidunlocked.bin" file;

- get the checksum of the "acidunlocked.bin" file;

- restart Prophet in bootloader mode;

- run "Rom Update Utility" and cancel after a successful "Verifying information..." window;

- use a TTY program to connect to the PDA and issue the following commands:

>ruustart

>ruuformat ???? 10000

>wdata ???? 10000

>HTCS

>"acidunlocked.bin content"

>"4-byte acidunlocked.bin checksum"

>HTCE

>ruuflashdoc ???? 10000 "4-byte acidunlocked.bin checksum"

>ruurun 0

>ResetDevice

The knowledge i lack is the exact memory address to place the information.

Also, is the data retrieved by "pdocread" in a "raw" format? And can it be directly written to the DOC by this method?

I think i'm very close, but i really help with these few things before taking the last step... i don't want to end up with an expensive brick.

PS.: i would like to thank all the people in the xda-developers, modaco and spv-developers forums, and all the other guys who have been "burning their brains out" to find solutions, and without whom i could never have gone this far (if one can call THIS "far"... :o )

camera and internal memory

Hello, I have installed two cm11 versions, the latest from this thread (11-20140216-unofficial-ruby). Both cases there is no internal storage. I can use my external sd and my podcast app uses it just fine. I am not able to mount this internal sd (labeled sdcard0) in cm recovery either. I can live without the few gigs in there, but I need to be able to get the camera to work and it just seems like it should be as simple as me finding the right place in the system files to change the path to sdcard1. The stock camera crashes every time. I have tried other camera apps and some give the option to change save directory, but it is like they can not see my external card because it will not give me any options to change. I have looked and looked, but I am hesitant to try solutions geared towards other phones when this cm11 version has working camera on other people's phones.

thanks,
[HTC Amaze 4G] pbergonzi:
Camera

This cm version has a working camera only if the not-working exposure sensor is okay with you--is that what you want--it won't take pictures you can do anything with, or working videos. A number of people have written about it, else everyone would be using it. The only perfectly working cameras are back around 4.0 ICS--CM9. CM10's camera was mostly functional with an occasional inability to focus, and no 1080 video I believe.

In installing this ROM, you need to be coming from ICS or JB, not GB. It may be helpful to WipeData/Factory Reset and Wipe All Partitions except SDCARD. This may prove more likely to function using 4EXT recovery, not CM.
[HTC Amaze 4G] berralac:
Well, i had ics on my amaze but did a factory reset prior to install of cm. I guess this could cause some problems? I may try to go back to stock this weekend and maybe do a cm10, tried to do this last weekend but could not get the phobe to use the ruu i downloaded. I liked the cm11. Does the other recovery save my intetnal storage? I was looking for bluetooth metadata and lockscreen widgets, and something new.
[HTC Amaze 4G] pbergonzi:
internal storage

The other recovery will preserve internal storage. The "Format all partitions except SDCARD" leaves the fat systems and concurrent data thereon, of the internal and external sdcard intact. I've gone through 15 rom's recently, using that and the "Wipe data/Factory reset" option and my permanent data hasn't been touched. I thought it would with the Factory reset, but it wasn't--don't know if that's a feature or an accident.
[Shield Tablet General] Voltron ish:
I am very upset about Nvidia not commenting on the new batch of shield tablets cracking, even though they said they would not crack. The warranty is one year, so after that cracks from a known manufacturing defect will not be replaced by Nvidia.

I also am concerned that if I sell my tablet, the next owner will not be covered for cracks.

At this point, Nvidia should offer anyone a refund, if they want it.

I will be contacting the law offices of Nicholas Koluncich. They won the class action suit against Nvidia. I'm sure they'll love to find out Nvidia is up to their old ways again.

They replaced mine in a hurry and no issues with the replacement. The corner in the picture is a scratch not a crack also I agree that it looks like a drop.

[Shield Tablet General] Voltron ish:
A class action would be in the future, if nvidia decides to screw us.

As for your replacement, from what I've seen on nvidia's site, if will eventually crack again. And, so far, they've only mentioned replacing cracked units for 1 year! For a known manufacturing defect!

They also have not said if 2nd owners will be able to RMA for cracks.
[Shield Tablet General] dibblebill:
True. We'll have to see.
[Shield Tablet General] Shaitheatery:
I bought one of the 16gig wifi models and had the cracking problem on two of the corners, and I was one of the lucky ones that had it replaced via RMA with the 32gig LTE model. I can say from my experience, I'm using the tablet much more intensively than I did with the 16gig model (I believe they attributed the issue to a mixture of a bad batch of materials used for the corners as well as heat from the tablet causing the cracks) and I have not seen any cracks on the replacement. If it still had the same issues, I for sure would have noticed them by now. Not saying all replacements/newer models won't, but just speaking from my experience. From what I can tell Nvidia has been doing everything possible to do things right and acknowledge, apologize, and attempt to correct when things go wrong related to their shield devices.
