[Samsung Gear S2] Bladder61:
I have an S2 4G on T-Mobile and it works fine with my Samsung Note 5. The 4G version should work fine with other android phones, that is what they are advertising. We will hear from lots of 4G owner very soon as the T-Mobile versions are up and running now.

I did not realize you don't get the green slider on the BT S2 when you are not using a Samsung phone.
[Samsung Gear S2] ksahrakar:
Gotta chime in

I have been struggling with this for days now. On Nexus 6 with lollipop and Nexus 6P with gear s2 Verizon version, you cannot answer or make a call on your phone. the audio and mic will default to the watch as if it is a BT headset. this is very annoying. With all my other gears I have not had this problem. To answer the original question of the thread: go to BT on your phone and check phone audio on the BT settings for the gear s2. then you can receive and make calls. But, for my issue, Verizon does not know what's going on and sent me a new phone which does the same thing, then blames Samsung, who then blames Google's M, who then blames Huawei, who then blames Verizon. I have been instructed, now, to call higher level support with Samsung... Will give an update!

Go to your phone's BT settings; select the settings of your gear s2 and check the phone audio box.
[Samsung Gear S2] wase4711:
nexus 6, rooted, with a custom rom, on T Mobile, zero issues making or receiving calls from the watch, either in Bluetooth mode or stand alone mode.

I also successfully paired my Moto Bt headset to the watch, so I can make and receive calls from the watch, with my bluetooth headset on!!

so far, everything works exactly as I hoped!
[Samsung Gear S2] Baladew4:
I had same problem, there's no green tab to pickup phone call on my BT S2

And i had try to change BT setting but there's no Call Audio or Media Audio check Box. Just Edit device name, Unpair and Connection access on the list.

Is there a bug or what...?? Please help...

FYI i used LG G3 phone...

No Green Answer Button available for non-samsung phones.

Hi,

Tested Gear S2 wifi only model (Non-sim model) with Nexus 5, Huawei p8, Samsung S5, and Samsung A5-2016 models.

Green Call accept button is available only with Samsung S5, and Samsung A5. In other devices only Red Reject button is Available.
[Samsung Gear S2] laky29:
You are correct I tested with galaxy see & LG G3

The Green Call accept button is available only with Samsung mobiles

[Samsung Gear S2] Gamesoul Master:
Not true, at least with the 4G models. It's worked just fine on my HTC M8 and my HTC 10. Very recently it stopped working (long after this thread was created), and I haven't done any major updates to my watch or ROM. So it must be something else, at least for some of us.

Edit: And... Now it works again. Very weird.
[Samsung Gear S2] laky29:
I have the S2 classic without Sim card connected to lg g3 and I don't have the answering option..

Can you please tell me what is the difference?

I'm going to install a different ROM on my lg g3, first stoke ROM and then costume ROM to verify if it's related...
[Samsung Gear S2] Fritz_Frigursson:
hey there, I just wanted to know how you answer calls with a smartwatch that doesn't have a speaker.

Thanks, Fritz_Frigursson
[Samsung Gear S2] wase4711:
the 4g model does have a speaker..
[Samsung Gear S2] guyladouche:
I found out that on my samsung phone, the gear s2 automatically connects as a phone and media device by default. On any other android phone, the connection is low-power non-phone non-media. In order to take calls on the watch, you have to go into bluetooth devices on your phone and manually connect to the s2 as a media and phone device. After that, answering calls on the watch will work. Tested this with my pixel, and it behaves as described. When not connected as a media/phone device, the only option is to ignore the call. When connected as a media/phone device, the green slider to answer calls on the watch appears, and sound comes through the watch.
[Samsung Gear S2] newkydawg:
For non-4g watches paired to non-Samsung phones, the last software update (PK5) removed the capability to answer phone calls from the watch. You can only reject calls now. The update also removed some messaging and email functionality.
[Samsung Gear S2] pxl2562:
I have GearS3 but had the same issue on my Nexus 6. I've found that there are two different bluetooth "modes" to connect to the watch with. In one mode, you connect to the watch via bluetooth menu on the phone and the bluetooth on the phone says it's connected to the watch. In this state, the watch can answer a call or reject it, but the phone will not connect to any other handsfree/calling devices (will not connect to the Uconnect in my jeep when connected to watch in this mode). However, if I disconnect the bluetooth connection to S3 through the bluetooth menu on the phone, the watch is actually still connected in what I only assume is a lower power state, even tho bluetooth menu says it's disconnected (I'm still getting notifications on the watch, and the watch still says it's connected). In this state, my phone will connect to my jeep, but the watch loses the option of answering the call, can only reject. I guess you can only have one calling device connected to the phone's bt at once.
[Samsung Gear S2] enettrek:
This is exactly why I may turn my Gear S2 back in and go with my OG LG Watch I've had for fracking 6 years. I use a plantronics legend headset for hands free as I'm a taxi company owner and driver.

With my LG Watch I was able to swipe to answer and make calls with no problem what so ever directly from the watch screen, no touching my phone at all... With the Gear S2 in order to answer the call or make a call using the watch screen, I have to have the watch enabled as my bluetooth "phone audio" device on the phone. How the frack was the LG Watch able to send the command for the answer on the phone via the bluetooth data connection but the gear S2 is only capable of sending the ignore or sending a text remotely via the phone.. Guess the dinosaur LG Watch is going to defeat the Samsung giant! Good thing I'm on the 30 day return window at Verizon (business account)

On a side note, the LG G Watch I paid $150 for during the black Friday sale in 2011 (100 after the $50 play store credit) is still the same price new on Amazon ($110) after 5 and a half years! Still the best watch on the market for the money! After using the Gear S2 for only a week I can say there's some features I love but the features I rely on aren't working properly so the LG Watch is making a come back on my arm and I'll get my $150 back from verizon!

[Sony Xperia L] T33L:
So I was hanging out on my phone one day and it started freezing, I had this ROM for about 2 months and my phone shut down as it always used to do. Problem I was never able to power it back on. I've been to different mobile services but no-one could help me. The only life sign my phone gives is when I plug it in the LED light shows as it was mid-charge like a yellow-green light. Other than that, no vibration ever, the computer never recognizes it and only makes sounds randomly when I plug it in. I was hoping it wasn't a hard brick since it happened long after I installed the ROM and it happened all of a sudden like that. Please share your knowledge with me if you have something I can know it would help so I can stop trying.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lonewitness:
I just purchased the Shield TV remote to replace my broken Nexus Player remote and the volume control doesnt work because NP has it locked. Any ideas how to unlock it so I can use the remote to change volume?
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxbat121:
Since it has HDMI digital output only, the volume is at your playback device, e.g. TV side.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fontong:
Has nothing to do with HDMI. The Chromecast & Shield are also HDMI only. It's locked down by Google who thought it was a great idea, it's not.
[Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] foxbat121:
It is. By having the volume control on the analog side preserves the full fidelity of audio as much as possible. Doing so on a digital audio path reduces effective bit-depth of the audio as well as dynamic range. Almost all HDMI source devices have locked volume control (cable box, DVD/BD players etc.).

It's a paid theme from theme store. If you cannot see paid themes in your theme store follow these steps from this thread... http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s6/themes-apps/paid-themes-theme-store-t3182910

If you don't want to buy the theme, download the trial version and then disable the theme store. If you are rooted do the next step...

After installed, go to /data/overlays/jsonfiles/trialjson and cut the json file of the theme and paste it to /data/overlays/jsonfiles/userjson folder.

Then reboot. This is to remove trial tag

[Verizon LG G3] Tweek900:
Hey guys, so the last phone I rooted and had a bootstrap on with custom roms was the Motorola Droid x2. We couldn't even get into the kernel. So with that being said I've acquired super user on my g3 months ago to freeze apps. But now I don't depend on my phone like I did then for work. So I want to do the whole thing and I'm unsure what choices to make. I'm not looking for a guide for installing stuff (at least not yet :P) just trying to get suggestions and hopefully good recommendations.

So here's the main point for the post

TLDR!!!!!

Current android version 5.0.1

kernels- unlock it? Change it? Not sure what all you can actually do with that.

Bootstrap- clock work mod? Or any other one can't think of names but need something to load roms

Rom for battery and power- cyanogenmod is what I use to run on the x2 not sure if it's still one of the best?

Anything else I missed that I should get and check out?

Thanks in advance

Put TWRP custom recovery on your phone with the autorec TWRP app by [MENTION=3279781]bender_007[/MENTION], in the General section of the non-variant specific G3 sections. Once you give the app superuser permissions it looks like it's hung up but give it 10-30 seconds because it's backing up your current recovery. Then click the button to install TWRP. Download the latest TWRP v2.8.7.0 from its thread also somewhere in the G3 sections, and flash it from your current TWRP.

I use [MENTION=2941286]xdabbeb[/MENTION] 's VS985 v2.0 ROM, which is based on the latest official LG ROM, build 35B, based on Android 5.1.1. Very happy with it, very smooth and great on battery.
