Using a different launcher, will widgets on "non used" launcher drain battery?

Lets say I set up the stock TouchWiz launcher, then decided to use the Google Now launcher... Will the widgets I set up on the TouchWiz launcher, such as the weather app, continue to work in the background or are they deactivated since the launcher is not being used?

[Samsung Gear S3] ttown:
With the latest round of smart watches launching now or coming soon, I am curious as to what type of people are buying the latest products. Since this is in the Samsung Gear S3 forum, I would imagine most, if not all of you, are interested in Samsung's latest offering. So my question is are you upgrading to this watch or would this be your first smart watch?

I currently have the first gen Moto 360. What drew me to the Moto 360 is the fact that it had a circular screen and Android Wear intrigued me. I've been happy with the Moto 360, but it is starting to show its age. I didn't think I would consider the Samsung Gear S3, but the looks and 3-4 days battery life definitely peaked my interest. I am not 100% sold on the Tizen OS yet, but from what I have seem so far there is a very good chance this will be my next smart watch.

Please post your response in the poll and share your thoughts below including your current smart watch.
[Samsung Gear S3] dersie:
3 or 4 days battery life but with screen Off like all other wear watch no ?

I have also the Gear S (first) it say also 3 or 4 day but in reality more one day than ..... or more if you do not use the watch ;)
[Samsung Gear S3] kronium:
I get a full day with Screen always on with my S2. The S3 should give a few hours beyond that.
[Samsung Gear S3] KiOtO:
Upgrading from LG Watch R to Samsung Gear S3 Frontier
[Samsung Gear S3] optimummind:
I would be upgrading from a Gear S2 3G. I like the Gear S3's design better and its improvements to AOD. Also, the inclusion of Samsung Pay MST.

With Always-on activated from 6 am to 11 pm, I finish the day with about 35% battery left. The Gear S3 should be even better.
[Samsung Gear S3] highaltitude:
My Huawei watch is at 50-60% by the time I put it on the charger about midnight each night. I wear it from 7am until midnight. So pretty darn good battery. I am interested in the GS3 because it seems to be more on the premium level finally. I had bought the S2 a couple months after having the Huawei, but returned it. The reason I didn't like the S2 was the cheap feel of it compared to the Huawei and I couldn't use other apps for text/email other than stock Samsung apps. Definitely interested to gety hands on the S3. My biggest reason for wanting Samsung is the e-sim. Not having to have a phone along could be a really nice option at times.
[Samsung Gear S3] ts-apps:
I've stopped wearing my Moto 360 afer not seeing any benefit wearing it. Oh and the menu was also very laggy.

But I'm very interested in a new smartwatch which could replace my phone during sports with GPS and a heartrate sensor, so hardware wise the S3 seems like a good fit but the software was holding back the previous Samsung watches in the past from what I've read.

I'll probably wait for the first reviews / sofware updates and then decide if it's worth another try....or wait for the Gear Fit 3 :D
[Samsung Gear S3] Naturesretard:
I've been in the market for a smart watch since the first iWatch. So much so, I've debated jumping ship just to get a half-decent smart watch. I just simply couldn't justify locking myself down into a cookie cutter phone, no matter how stable and fluid it is, just for a watch. So, I've been trolling here, other sites, and all developments of wearables. When I found out the S3 is featuring MST, and that it doesn't depend on the phone to have it (Looking at you S2), I just knew I had to have it. Then with the later reported music streaming apps, a true map app for the wearable, and how sleek and casual, yet classy, the S3 is, I just KNEW I had to get it. I didn't even hesitate.

On 24 hours now with it and besides the lack of music streaming apps (December can't come fast enough. I hate spotify, but hey, streaming is streaming) and FULL support for Google Messenger (stock texting sucks ass, even more so for group messaging) i absolutely LOVE this watch. I've tried Samsung Pay, it works. It's amazing. I think it's silly you can only do 5 transactions when in standalone mode, but I can kind of understand the reasoning behind it, to a degree even though it is still silly in my eyes (security issues).

If you've thought about getting this watch for ANY reason, stop thinking about it and go get it. You will love it. I'm SO glad I waited for the s3 and didn't rush into any other wearable.
[Samsung Gear S3] tstint:
Upgrading from the Gear S
[Samsung Gear S3] Outbreak444:
I was interested in the Gear S2 when I read it had Samsung Pay, but found out it was not MST capable so I decided against it. Then I stumbled upon the Gear S3 details and anxiously awaited until its release. Now I feel safer using it to pay because I don't have to pull out my phone or my wallet.
[Samsung Gear S3] afblangley:
Have you actually triggered the 5 transaction limit? What does it say when it happens?
[Samsung Gear S3] TTBlu:
First smart watch and will probably return it next week for a refund as:

1. Basically it does not work as a watch as the turn on gesture is not sensitive enough. I do not want AOD as that will kill the battery and lessen the screen life / burn in.

Looking at a blank screen instead of the time is frustrating I suspect this is true for all smartwatches though with wake up gesture not just the S3.

2. Notifications are too unreliable.

3. Samsung Pay is not available in the UK - I knew this before I purchased but Samsung will not state when it will be available if ever.
[Samsung Gear S3] peewee2:
This will be my third. Had a galaxy gear and currently wearing the gear 2. Still 1 week to wait here in the Netherlands.

I enjoy the notifications on my watch and don't really expect much else. So I'm easy to please :)

[Samsung Gear S3] atomic2mod:
This will my 4th upgrade. I missed 2 things from the Gear S2: a speaker to let people know I'm fumbling to get my phone out; and Samsung Pay. I love how strong the vibration setting is on the S2 and hope it will be just as great on the S3.

Now what REALLY bothers me though is that this watch is completely geared for males. I don't mind the size - but goodness gracious Samsung - do we just count for nothing???? I will not rock the robust look of the Frontier. So I'm just left with a silver Classic Bluetooth only version and very masculine bands with the original order. I have the S2 in Rose Gold and a white leather band and LOVE the look!
[Samsung Gear S3] Naturesretard:
I have not, I was merely reporting documentation I've come across.

"Make at least 5 payments on your Gear S3 without a Galaxy smartphone nearby after initial setup. Number of transactions varies by card network and bank. Reload payment capability by connecting to a Galaxy Smartphone via Bluetooth. Only compatible with select cards, carriers and Android smartphones; see the Samsung Pay Support page at www.samsung.com/us/ support/owners/app/samsung-pay#compatibility for compatibility information." Found at the bottom of this link denoted by the 2.

What this means is after you setup Samsung pay to the Gear s3, you can then depending on bank, make up to 5 or more* transactions without needing to sync your phone via bluetooth to the watch. After that, you apparently will be unable to make any more payments until the S3 is then resycned to the phone.

* denotes bank and card limitations, defaults to 5.
[Samsung Gear S3] ab30494:
for the only being able to do 5 transactions with the s3 on standalone. With the phone if you have no service I believe you can only do 10 transactions. Because it stores tokens to use with s-pay, and once those are used you have to replenish them

---------- Post added at 07:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:47 PM ----------

I upgraded from the Huawei watch, to the s3. The Huawei looks plain and boring compared to it.

water even after drying can make a little corrosion on the mother board contacts which acts like a resistance conducting electricity to your flash light.

Hi guys,

I read a lot of your wise threads while trying to save my phone but unfortunately I didn't find an answer.

I tried to upgrade my LG G2 mini (D620R) from official stock ROM 4.4.2 to official stock ROM 5.0.2 using the LG flash tool (phone is unrooted).

At the end of the upgrade I got stuck in bootloop. Maybe b/c I chose "normal flash".

1) The stock recovery mode only offers me a factory reset - It didn't help.

2) I'm not able to go into download mode.

3) The computer doesn't recognize the phone. It recognizes it as a USB power device.

4) Even tried ADB, but it doesn't see the phone.

Do you have any suggestions? :confused:

Maybe the bad flash damaged the memory hardware?
