[General Questions and Answers] somnambulistic:
Friends,

I have been trying desperately to get my Genius Bluetooth Mouse Navigator 900 to work on my Micromax P480 tablet which is powered by Android Kitkat.

There is no problem whilst detecting. The mouse is correctly identified as "Genius Bluetooth Mouse". The problem begins when trying to pair this device. The proffered options of "1234", or "0000" do not help at all. The communication is not established. And, an error message is displayed stating that the PIN provided is incorrect. I have also tried using "1111", "12345", "123", "000", and "111" as possible options. But these have been to no avail.

Pressing on the connect button provided underneath the mouse is also of no help. The communication is instantly disconnected on using this button with an identical error message.

The mouse, however, connects to Android Jelly Bean powered Samsung Galaxy DUOS 2 (GT-S7582) without any issues.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Sorry for bumping such an old topic, but did you try pairing after upgrading to Lollipop?
[General Questions and Answers] somnambulistic:
Would you believe it if I told you that Micromax does not seem to offer relevant updates to Lollipop for this model?

I am sorry, too, for responding late.:p
[General Questions and Answers] Ibbi786:
I have lollipop currently installed, I've made a thread about it too. Let me send the link, wait.

[General Questions and Answers] somnambulistic:
Seems interesting. However, upgrading to Lollipop at this point has taken a backseat for me insofar as this device is concerned. What I am more concerned is with the battery. In its stock mode, the tab does not offer much by way of battery backup. Thank you for sharing that guide. Will check it out as soon as I possibly can.

I'm having a problem. I got the code from Sony. I installed the Android SDK. I downloaded the drivers set off of the Android site. then I downloaded the patch. I got my phone in fast boot mode. I go into the system to update the drivers...

This happens:

Being a stubborn man, I then download the Flashtool driver pack and attempt to install all the drivers. Doesn't work as for some reason it rejects most of them as being unable to install. So I simply force-extract the EXE and point Update driver at it in hopes that it will work.

This happens.

Please help.

Managed to get it in... but now it's telling me "OEM unlock failed!"

... and it was because they are case sensitive. Well. That was a trial but thanks to everyone here and your previous discussions I was able to get it. Thank you.

Hi Guys...

Just got my Gear S2 4G. from one of the nearby T-mobile Store.

I am just loving it.

best thing we can receive calls..

also we can see whats app notification and reply them.....

loving my Gear S2.... :):laugh:

:good:

How are liking the extra bulk in th rear of the watch?
[Samsung Gear S2] rawdaddymagraden:
I just received mine last night but sadly I have to return it today. Mine won't connect to tmobile network I went through troubleshooting with both tmobile and Samsung but still no result. I get full bars but says no service and can only make emergency calls when not connected via Bluetooth. I love the watch and otherwise it works great when connected to Bluetooth.

I am currently trying to find a store with another one in Stock to swap mine out because I got the last one at my tmobile and no other local stores have them.

As for the bulk on the back of the watch I just came from a moto 360 so I was surprised at the bulk when I first put it on but have since got used to it. I'll deal with it a little bulkier for a speaker to make calls and play music and also for 4g connectivity.

Anyone else having activation issues? Seems with a quick Google search I'm not the only one with the issue
[Samsung Gear S2] jutaejrtouch:
Shipped

Mine shipped today! I currently have a Gear 2 so hoping there won't be much of a learning curve
[Samsung Gear S2] ocjelf:
Everyone is having problems with the network the esim isn't letting it conect to the network call and they will prorate the cost
[Samsung Gear S2] Bladder61:
Just picked one up at my local store. As stated above they are having trouble connecting the S2 4G to the network. It works great on BT using the mobile phone to place and take calls. Did a couple calls in my car with it and the speaker was loud enough to hear over road noise.

The T-Mobile Manager got on the line with support and a service ticket is opened up on my watch as well as many more over the stand alone network problem.
[Samsung Gear S2] ocjelf:
On Android central forums a tmo employee said it would be couple days until they get the fix
[Samsung Gear S2] vaiopeanut:
Got my S2 in the mail today. Won't connect to Tmobile network either
[Samsung Gear S2] Bladder61:
When they opened up my support ticket at the T-Mobile store they told me it might take up to 72 hours (3 days) before it was resolved.
[Samsung Gear S2] ocjelf:
Yea hopefully sooner I'm gear s less ( in repair) and the gear s2 isn't working on 3g so Im without a stand alone watch atm
[Samsung Gear S2] Lucent:
I could call 611 until they associated the eSIM with my line, and now it's emergency calls only. Talked to T-Mobile and they say they're going to manually provision it and it'll take between 2 and 48 hours. We'll see.

Maybe a better question is is there anyone with an S2 active on T-Mobile right now.
[Samsung Gear S2] adeelfaizi:
So the answer is "No"

The launch is a disaster....... the problem is not the network failure but its the loss of all the technical department to even understand it. You can't fix something without knowing whats wrong with it

---------- Post added at 09:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:27 AM ----------

You might be the only Gear S2 user with a network connection

Have you tried making a phone call (without bluetooth)

I am connected to the network now and can only use data, no calls though
[Samsung Gear S2] Lotusmaster:
Let's trade!

So I have a silver S2 sport comes with a spare white band, so I'd like to trade straight up my spare white band with someone who has a spare black band. Any takers?
[Samsung Gear S2] Lucent:
I'm online now with T-Mobile. Everything is fully functional.
[Samsung Gear S2] Lotusmaster:
Yeah me too thanks for making me check.
[Samsung Gear S2] geekaren:
Bear in mind, the spare band is smaller (the Gear S2 band is marked "S" or "L" at the clip ends). Unless you have a small frame, you probably want to swap with someone not using the main band because they need a smaller band (like me).

If you'd like to swap your "S" band for a black "L" band, feel free to PM me.

---------- Post added at 06:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:26 AM ----------

If I turn off bluetooth, I have to set mobile networks to "always on" (from the default "auto on/off") to make calls and connect to data in stand-alone mode.

I figured this out based on an androidcentral forum post:

What finally worked for me was settings>Connections>mobile networks and I changed it from "auto on/off" to "always on" and it worked almost instantly.
[Samsung Gear S2] wase4711:
mine came yesterday, and they sent me the wrong color!

Hopefully, it wont be a nightmare getting the replacement watch activated when it comes today

Its not encouraging to see these network issues right out of the box, but setting the watch to "always on" seems like a decent option until they get a fix out..

Did any of you change your watch phone number to something else instead the one they gave you, or do they give you one similar to your cell phone number right out of the box?

If you change it to "always on", does it only ring when someone calls the watch phone number, or will it work when your cell phone is called as well?
[Samsung Gear S2] adeelfaizi:
i am in :)
[Samsung Gear S2] Bladder61:
My T-Mobile S2 is now up and operating on the network. They opened my support ticket yesterday afternoon, and this morning it was working. I can do everything (Call/answer/text/use web apps) when I am in stand alone mode (Phone off). Under connections I have my network set to auto on/off. Call forwarding works great.

I had an original Gear S, so they gave me the same number I was using on that. The store reps were great, but initially both they and myself were looking to where I would insert the nano-sim from my old gear. Finally figured out that it was e-Sim only.

Initial battery results are OK, From a full charge at 6:55am until now (1:50pm) I have used 34% battery (remaining 66%). That works out to just under 5% drain per hour. I have NFC, Wifi, and tilt to wake are

off

, network set to auto (I have walk away from my phone a couple times and the watch has gone into stand alone mode), I am also running screen always on with a Clocki face that has large hands, number, and day/date showing in ambient mode. I get about a 3% per hour drain on my Moto 360 2015 using always on with a detailed ambient face.

So, the S2 battery seems good for first day use, should only get better over the next few days with a few more charge cycles (at least that is what I have seen on several other smartwatches I own).
[Samsung Gear S2] wase4711:
Did you have to call in to get a different watch phone number?

After you initially pair the watch to the phone, is it a good idea to turn off the phone completely and test whether stand alone mode works properly, or should you leave them both on and talking to each other for awhile?

I've had many smart watches, but never one with a stand alone dialing function, so I apoligize for the n00b questions..
[Samsung Gear S2] Bladder61:
The watch needs its own phone number. Part of the set up on the Gear Manager on your phone is to put in the watches phone number so it knows where to forward calls when you are not with your phone. If you have the watch paired properly with your phone through Gear Manager and have all the settings you prefer set up, then try making calls/texting/using web apps on the watch. These should work fine as you are BT connected to your phone.

Now either turn off BT or power down your phone and see what you get. On your watch when you are on the home/clock screen swipe down and see what it says at the top. It should say "Connected Remotely T-Mobile". Also, under Settings/About Device/Gear Phone No. you should see your watches phone number. Give the watch a test with a call/text/use of web app (CNN News).
[Samsung Gear S2] wase4711:
perfect answers man, just waiting now for the UPS truck to get here so I can start the setup!

how long does it take, when you get it for the battery to charge 100%? I assume its best to charge it 100% before first use..

also, I think I want to make sure my watch phone number is close to my cell number, so I assume I should call them if its a weird phhone number assigned to the watch, and have them change it before the first setup attempt?

thanks again!
[Samsung Gear S2] xzero425x:
Mine comes in tomorrow in black and im so excited!
[Samsung Gear S2] wase4711:
mine just showed up, and charging it now..
[Samsung Gear S2] Bladder61:
Good luck on the setup. Does the paperwork you get from T-Mobile show your phone number for the watch? I set mine up in the T-Mobile store and they used my number from my Gear S.

I wasn't concerned about my Gear phone number as you really don't need to know it other that for setup. When people try to text or call you and you don't have your phone due to it is not physically with you or it is turned off, the call will be forwarded to your watch seamlessly.

People can call directly to your watch number, but I never bother giving it out to anyone, just call my normal phone number and I will either pick up on my phone or watch.

When you have it set up on call forward, if your phone is off it will instantly ring to your watch. If your phone is on but not with you, it will ring on the phone for several rings and then forward to your watch. You will need to setup your voicemail for the watch. If you don't pickup on your phone or watch the caller is sent to your watch voicemail.
[Samsung Gear S2] wase4711:
no, I had to call in a get my phone number from the dept that activates your sim..

I dont use t mobile voicemail normally, I use YouMail, but I dont think I can set that up on the watch at this point..I wonder if I can have t mobile voice mail on the watch, and YouMail on the phone itself..

Oh well, alot to test and figure out, but so far, everything works as expected; I've even used the Mr. Watchface app or what ever its called and tried a few nice watch faces!

thanks for your help with this stuff!:good::good:

---------- Post added at 04:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:04 AM ----------

Come to find out they messed it all up and they put the worng sim in the system tech support said I have to take it back to the store :/
[Samsung Gear S2] Greatbape:
My experience with this watch has been horrible so far. I ordered a black watch online but it was back ordered. I called my local tmo store and they had a black watch in stock. I get there and the manager says they can't put it on my smart watch line so they open a new line and charge me an activation fee. I found that odd and called CS. She said they have been having problems with that in the stores with employees opening new lines just to get commission. My old line was perfectly fine to use. The CS rep told me to go back and close the line. I was closer to another tmo store so I stopped there. I told the girl there what happened and she called and got the line closed but she also closed the sim card. This was after I explained to her for 5 minutes that the sim was embedded. She then opens the box which was still sealed and there is a silver watch in the box. At this point I'm just done with the entire situation. I call the first store and ask for a refund. They want to charge me a restocking fee of 50 dollars even though they wrongly opened a new line and gave me the wrong watch. Then I had to call CS again to get the sim fixed. But since it was tied to the new line they had to reopen that line. Now I have a silver watch and a new line. Both I no longer want. I'll be returning it tomorrow and promptly calling my bank to dispute the charges. Fraud and incompetence on so many levels.

On a side note I got a LG Urbane 2 from an att store and it blows the S2 away on all level. It's cheaper, has android wear, looks better, bigger battery, waaaay more apps, and just all around better in quality. Wish I went with that first. I'll play with them both for night but the S2 is vastly inferior.
[Samsung Gear S2] ocjelf:
Sounds like what happened to me
[Samsung Gear S2] Avatiach:
I'm debating between the two myself. May I ask - Is your phone on tmo? Does the LG play nicely with it being on att? Did you need a new data plan from att?

Any impression you could share comparing the two would be greatly appreciated!

Many thanks in advance and happy to move this to pm if this isn't relevant for folks on this forum :)
[Samsung Gear S2] wase4711:
I'll just say two words, "rotating bezel"..

S2 Gear blows away all other smart watches; you're just mad because some stupid Tmo store employees..
[Samsung Gear S2] geekaren:
Thanks for sharing this... are you using the AT&T LG Urbane 2 on TMobile? Did you have to unlock it first?
[Samsung Gear S2] smooth6652:
this was a global problem bro with the watch they fixed it now
[Samsung Gear S2] Greatbape:
I had one of my phone sim in the Urbane and it worked flawlessly. It stopped working on the smatwatch plan though. Since tmobile can't tell if it's a smartwatch or phone they blocked my sim. I have one of my phone sims in it and it works pretty well with it. I can't get LTE, but the 3g is working very well. I don't have att and never tried it with a tmobile phone. I would hold off on the LG watch for tmobile until they figure out that it is a watch. Unless you want to use a normal phone sim in it.
[Samsung Gear S2] phxtravis:
How's the battery life for everyone? I took mine off the charger at 6:00AM and here it is 11:45AM and I'm at 46%. Watch was fully charged(all night) and I've seriously been trying to avoid using it much to test the battery. I turned the brightness down to "4" at about 75%, and I have vibration and sound on.
[Samsung Gear S2] wase4711:
its impossible to gauge battery life at this early point, since we (I) am playing with it alot all the time, so I am gonna wait at least a week before I pay much attention to battery life; obviously, with 4G/phone useage, you're gonna eat more battery than with a non 4G model..
[Samsung Gear S2] Avatiach:
Thanks for the additional details! How did you get them to sell it to you? I went to 2 att stores today and both told me I had to be a cellular customer of theirs to buy the watch.

Ended up getting the S2, and will give it a shot for a few days, but still quite intrigued by the urbane 2
[Samsung Gear S2] Bladder61:
Let us know if you get a new Urbane 2 LTE and set it up on T-Mobile. I went to an ATT store and looked at the watch. Two different Reps told me it was the new Gear S2, I showed them my T-Mobile S@ and had to explain to them that it was a new LG watch. They did not have it set up to sync so I got no experience with the new AW on a cellular device.

I still have my nano-sim from my original Gear S. they put my new S2 on the same number. I might see if I could get an Urbane 2 LTE and pop the sim in to see how it works. I may have to sign up for an ATT plan, I and then cancel it if I ended up keeping the watch and putting it on T-Mobile. Those pesky restocking fees ($50+) make me hesitant to do it though.
[Samsung Gear S2] jez924:
got my Gear S2 yesterday. I actually jumped from the Gear S so transferring the number was pretty easy. I made sure I tested making a call from network before leaving the store. Even only using it for a day I'm not happy about the battery life but perhaps I have to tweak it some and like another user said its hard to gauge battery life when testing it all day.
[Samsung Gear S2] Greatbape:
The first store I went to said the same thing. I called ahead to the second store and told them I was buying it as a gift for a friend. At the current time I'm leaning towards returning them both. The S2 just looks like a little girls watch on my massive wrist. Also the functionality and lack of customization compared to android wear makes it a no go for me. I really want to keep the urbane, but if I can't get my wearable plan to work with it soon I'll be returning it too. I also tried to get a single plan at att for it but they don't allow it without a normal phone plan attached. I just put my note 5 sim in it again it it works without a hitch, so T-Mobile is blocking the sim.
[Samsung Gear S2] HolyGrail:
Thanks for this. I didn't know about this other watch until you posted this. Went by the At&t store to check it out, played around for about a hour, and walked out of the store with it. Bought full retail, no plan. I was fine with keeping it bluetooth to my phone, but a good friend of mine has a At&t account, so I'll probably just pay him $10 each month. Gear s2 went back today, good watch, but I just like the LG Urbane a lot more.

Seems there are some issues with that watch.
[Samsung Gear S2] Avatiach:
Whoa, that sounds serious, thanks for sharing! As for me - I visited 2 at&t stores today, both refused to sell it to me unless I become a full at&t customer. Ended up going to a tmo store and picking up an S2 to try. So far I like it, but still too early to make up my mind - I'll try to share some initial impressions after a day or two of using it.

So ends up store messed my account up switching Sims and getting new line and everything locked the sim on the watch tech support called me told me to exchange it went to the store dude called tech support and waited an hour + tells me to wait 3 more days and it will work mind u u have had it since Sunday wouldn't exchange it or give me my 404$ without taking the restocking fee emailed the tech support person thay was helping me called me as soon as I left the store with my watch she called my local store and they fixed it right away lesson is stick wi7 your local tmo if I just waited a day longer I don't I would have had such a headache

Purchasing 3g version

I have some question before purchasing 3g version from T-mobile.

In europe we don't have support for e-sim for now, so my questions are:

1. Is it necessary to register phone number to e-sim when starting gear?

2. Can i make call on watch without e-sim activated, just when watch are connected with phone?
[Samsung Gear S2] Bladder61:
#1. Not totally sure what you are asking, but the esim and activation are really only necessary for standalone mode of the watch. Everything works when you have a BT connection to your phone.

#2. You will be able to place and receive calls from the watch on Blue Tooth only without a network connection on the watch.
[Samsung Gear S2] kkbarrier:
Terrific

I'm coming from a Gear S and I loved it.

Gear S2 software is smooth. And the hardware is as professional feeling as I've seen. It functions very well and the round screen is a good trade for the larger Gear S screen. I'll miss the sleep tracking (yes they took it out of the S2's S Health for some reason. Call Samsung and tell them you want it fixed if you do. Squeaky wheel might get the attention.) It should really have a night mode clock while charging like the moto 360 but that's a minor thing.

I'd really like to see a dev crowd hacking the rom but I don't know where to begin with Tizen and man is it crazy cool and easy to use as it stands.

No issue in Fort Collins, CO with connection on TMO.

Like my Gear S, I added the watch number to my google voice numbers account to ring, as well as called TMO and had them conditionally forward the watch to google voice mail. So all VM goes to one place. Seriously functional product.

In the music player, click on menu (the little dots on the right), then the first item on the menu allows you to choose if the player controls the watch or the phone
[Samsung Gear S2] wase4711:
I cant get the watch to play music on my phone, only music that I have transferred to my watch..

Maybe because I am not using a Samsung phone?
