[MENTION=244402]apprentice[/MENTION]

I use "Gear Navigator Companion" and I also installed "Here We Go" both work really well, but Navigator uses Google Street View images which is awesome.

Hi mate, Could you run down how to get the maps to show on the watch, have tried and must have missed something. Thanks.
[Samsung Gear S3] Rob F1UK:
LTE on the UK S3 Frontier?
[Samsung Gear S3] the_scotsman:
Nope, only the US and Korea get LTE.
[Samsung Gear S3] obsydian:
First full use is 3.5 days using it 24/7.

I have found with every Gear watch Samsung issue an update that betters this, but more than happy.
[Samsung Gear S3] Dodge DeBoulet:
WOW. That is exceptional! I'm wondering how battery life will be impacted by LTE on models so equipped. I'm thinking we'll be very lucky getting a full day ...
[Samsung Gear S3] obsydian:
I would say after a few cycles i will get 4 clear days, which for me works, as i only charge twice a week.

Charged up just Monday morning (t get me through most the week) and Friday morning (to get me through a day and the weekend)

I setup my sisters Apple Watch (version 0 as they call it), spent time over two weeks tweaking and switching off all sorts just to get to the end of the day. I did not my to Google (Moto 360 or the LG) as i found again the o/s was battery hungry.

LTE - i don't know, but i'd say if you can get 1 FULL day (not an Apple 16hrs) using it fully standalone that is awesome.
[Samsung Gear S3] robsy:
Really

Could you explain to me how it's any good? I was impressed when I first started using it but now I realise it won't even send a text using s voice, just tells me I have no contacts or contacts syncing. Even tho I'm able to voice dial using contacts and s voice. I can open the message app then use voice to compose a message but what's the point of that, if I have to navigate through the watch rather than using s voice then it's pointless for me. Also I would like the simple ability to open apps on my phone using s voice on the watch, but no if the app isn't on the phone then that's it. To be honest in sorely disappointed as it's a lovely looking bit of kit but I didn't spend £350 for a fancy digital watch.
[Samsung Gear S3] BarryH_GEG:
Do you have your contacts synced and/or Buddys loaded on your Gear? I've never had a problem sending a text by voice with my Gear S2 to a contact locally stored on my watch. I can't imagine the Gear S3 would have changed for the worse.
[Samsung Gear S3] robsy:
Well my contacts are viewable on the watch but am unable to voice dial or text. It's a shame as that's a deal breaker for me, I've been trying to sort it out all day but no luck.
[Samsung Gear S3] JanGun:
Anybody using Gear with other than samsung phone? And if so how does s-health work? What about other features?
[Samsung Gear S3] apprentice:
Firstly, S-Voice is working fine for me. I can send a text message from start to finish no problem at all.

And I found it bizarre that you don't think dictating a message instead of using the tiny keyboard is useful?? And why do you want your watch to open apps on your phone? What's the point in that? And you are not just getting a fancy digital watch. What non smartwatch provides phone notifications, navigation, call making and taking, fitness tracking, music player, news, weather, games, apps and much more. Just what else did you expect?

A Smartwatch is not for you as your expectations are illogical and you seem to be doing everything the wrong way round anyway mate

.
[Samsung Gear S3] orlans21:
I haven't gotten mine yet but when I first power it on should i not charge it and let it go down to 0 and then charge to 100? Whats the proper way to do it these days when using a brand new product? I seem to forget
[Samsung Gear S3] robsy:
Well I'm glad yours is everything you dreamed it would be and thanks for your patronising tone but I'll decide what's for me or not unfortunately mine simply doesn't do what was advertised. No voice calls no voice text. As for why I want it to launch phone apps I have my wireless headphones connected to my phone, I'd like to be able to launch tune in radio my Audiobookplayer or my podcast player without getting my phone out while driving None of these have apps for the watch. At the moment I'm better off using s voice on my headphones which works about 50% of the time for launching phone apps. If anyone has any tips for getting s voice texts or callls working I would really appreciate it.

---------- Post added at 09:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:15 AM ----------

To anyone who had issues with voice our text I think found a solution. Disconnect your watch from your phone and connect remotely via Wifi. Then try sending a text with s voice, this should then pick up your contacts and it seems to still work when connected to the phone again.
[Samsung Gear S3] apprentice:
It wasn't meant to be patronising. It was more about how I still don't understand what you are expecting from a smartwatch. The fact that yours is not working the way everyone else's is, seems to indicate that you either have it set up incorrectly or it's faulty. Have you tried contacting Samsung support?

You are not going to get a lot of help in this thread. If you have specific issues why not post a new topic on the Q&A section?
[Samsung Gear S3] Efriday:
S3 with ATT - MST works

I was afraid ATT would work the same scam they did for the Gear S2 - NFC was not enabled for many months after release. But I tried Samsung Pay with NFC and with MST, and each worked on my new Gear S3.

Larger size is easier on the eyes. Nice selection of free watch faces. Battery life seems about the same as the S2.

Use caution - The Delete function for emails seems to delete messages ON YOUR PHONE as well as on the Gear. Haven't figured out how to prevent this yet.
[Samsung Gear S3] Tmel14:
Any feedback on how the GPS works? A large reason I want the watch is for fitness and tracking runs in terms of pace and distance. Does the GPS and S Health do this effectively?
[Samsung Gear S3] soundneedle:
Got the frontier non-LTE version. Using on my google pixel. There is no option for samsung pay. That sucks...hard. One reason I bought it. Samsung is misleading everyone by tweeting pay works with all android phones running kitkat+. I'm starting a "delete the tweet!" petition.
[Samsung Gear S3] JanGun:
Has anyone tried S-Health and Other workout mode?

And if so does it measure your HR on that mode too?

There was one review that said it does not.

If that is the case then it is a big turn off for me.
[Samsung Gear S3] orlans21:
what country are you in?
[Samsung Gear S3] soundneedle:
USA
[Samsung Gear S3] orlans21:
did you try side loading samsung pay?
[Samsung Gear S3] soundneedle:
Wouldn't bother with that since it apparently work via Gear app. I was told by someone who supposedly chatted with Samsung support that Pay on the gear will only work with samsung devices initially. The will/might? roll out to other phones later. Um. Sure. Ok.
[Samsung Gear S3] ITNV:
Wow, that does suck! So in the Gear App do you have anything between "S Health" and "Samsung Galaxy Apps" under the settings tab? On the watch, do get a message or anything when you press and hold the back button?
[Samsung Gear S3] soundneedle:
I only have the two menu items:

"S Health" and "Samsung Galaxy Apps"

Nothing in between.

Press and holding the top button on the watch does nothing. Doing same on the bottom button brings up "Gear options", and nothing about pay. Going to settings, connections, NFC, Tap and Pay results in "No installed payments apps".
[Samsung Gear S3] fraggel79:
Sonos?

Will it control my sonos ?
[Samsung Gear S3] MadLinx:
I was also worried about this & this is what I found. You can set which apps you want to receive notifications for. If you are connected via bluetooth & choose notifications for whatsapp & a 3rd party messaging app you will get notifications & be able to respond...but you CANNOT start a conversation using the S3.
[Samsung Gear S3] orlans21:
someone confirmed that samsung pay works on the gear s3 with non samsung phones.
[Samsung Gear S3] MadLinx:
I had the LG Urbane 2 & I have to say that the Gear S3 is far & away a better watch, as a matter of fact this is the best smartwatch on the market. If the Gear is telling you that you have no contacts, you may want to power cycle.
[Samsung Gear S3] coretech:
I've been using mine for a couple days now (T-Mobile LTE Frontier) I am coming from a Pebble Time and was expecting to have to charge the S3 more but I am impressed with the how long the battery lasts. I do have a problem I'm trying to figure out, sleep tracking or sleeping, in general, seems to destroy the battery. During a day of use from 8am until 6p my battery is around 60% not too bad. But if I charge it to 100% before I go to bed around 11 by the time I wake up it's dead.

I'm still figuring out the watch (I love it so far) but I kinda miss my sleep tracking that the pebble was able to do for a week without a charge. Anyone notice this?
[Samsung Gear S3] ttown:
You can control Sonos from the watch with limited functionality. You have to start Sonos from your phone first, then you can go to the next/previous song on the watch, but you can't change the volume.
[Samsung Gear S3] dkb218:
That's not good.
[Samsung Gear S3] Premier 1k Flyer:
LG v20.. Works like a charm
[Samsung Gear S3] the_scotsman:

[Samsung Gear S3] ThinkD:
The gps chip only gives the coordinates, not any map. You can see your route from walking or running (without phone) when you connect later your Gear with the phone.
[Samsung Gear S3] i_MoNsT3r:
Can I ask you for pictures of both watches together on your wrist?

I have the moto 360 first gen too and everyone says that the gear s3 is big, and I don't have a way of physically seeing it but I'm planning on buying it.

Thanks
[Samsung Gear S3] ttown:
Here you go. It's not much bigger in terms of the diameter, but it is a thicker watch which I don't mind.

By the way, this is the AOD screen on the Gear S3, so this is what the watch looks like when it's not on. Definitely one of the selling points!
[Samsung Gear S3] i_MoNsT3r:
Wow looks really good, I'm definitely buying it.

Thank you
[Samsung Gear S3] geovass:
Hey guys how to change the font type and size? I can't find the settings / display option? Is that on the gear app on the phone ?

I also can't find a way to get vibrations while receiving a notification? Any clues?

Last but not least, how do I turn on the always on option?

Many thanks
[Samsung Gear S3] yessirrom:
on the watch

settings >style > watch faces/ watch alway on/ notification indicator/ background style/ font (last option in list)
[Samsung Gear S3] Premier 1k Flyer:
Sometimes I get the host provider has stopped responding and notifications stop coming thru but it still is connected

A reboot of the phone and watch usually helps. Anyone else experiencing this? On lg v20
[Samsung Gear S3] geovass:
Many thanks. I had forgotten there were settings on the watch and I was trying to find them within the Gear App.
[Samsung Gear S3] Gooner4_1998:
Hi

How have you downloaded the maps onto the Gear please? I can only get the maps to download to my phone.

Thanks!
[Samsung Gear S3] Solis107:
Im loving the watch. Went out to best buy and got the BT only version. I couldn't wait for sprints LTE. SOLID build however dial seems a little cheap. Heart rate monitor is a joke. Ive recorded 1 HR on auto since friday. Will not work with tattoos at all. Steps are on point with s health. I LOVE THIS WATCH. My only suggestion is too add an option to record your HR every 30 mins or hour or whatever, dont leave it on auto cause it wont record anything.
[Samsung Gear S3] geovass:
Guys, I am unable to use my BT headsets for phone calls. It seems the voice goes either on the watch or my phone??

How to deactivate the phone option on gear s3? Or is there another way?

Edit: Fixed it. I had to disable the Phone Audio on my BT Settings (Phone)
[Samsung Gear S3] dkb218:
So far I'm enjoying my T-Mobile LTE S3. Haven't have much of a chance to go full LTE yet but I'll take care of that at lunchtime today. It's a little bigger than my 2 year old LG G Watch R with a MUCH BETTER SCREEN and that fact that it's not running Android Wear is a major plus for me. Battery life on BT is excellent. Off charger at 6 AM at 100%. Now at 9:40 AM battery is at 96%. I don't need Always On Display so that will save a ton of battery for me.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] mclmc:
Hi all,

This is my first post so if I'm doing it wrong, please bear with me.

I love my X2 but the only thing is unless rooted, it doesn't offer split screen or multitasking options, which is a shame considering its real estate.

Does the new Android update 6.0, beta or non-beta now include this split screen option stock?

If so, I am very willing to attempt the B211 upgrade first time...

Thanks guys.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] jasmithers:
Hi mclmc -- I've got the stock OTA update to Android 6.0 and EMUI 4.0 (B202) on the 702L. I haven't found any split-screen option but there is a type of "multitasking" similar to the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 I used to have: if you hit the lower right soft button on the X2's screen you can then flip horizontally through all the running app windows and click on the one you want (or close those you don't need anymore to save RAM space). Not sure if this is what you mean, and I don't know if this is different from Android 5.x because I did the OTA update to 6.0 before even using the phone.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] mclmc:
Dear Jasmithers,

Sincerely thank you for your response. I was hoping that there would be an option to run two or more apps simultaneously on the same screen... Somehow I feel restricted if I'm not able to eye running programs at a glance, but that's just me.

Cheers and much appreciated for clearing this out.
[Huawei MediaPad X2] jasmithers:
No problem. I'm a neophyte on this device so don't take my word as gospel. Do a search in the top Mediapad X2 forum and you'll find people showing how multiwindow can be done if you're willing/able to root the device (although they may not be talking about 6.0/4.0 build). For example, check out:

http://xdaforums.com/mediapad-x2/general/emui-3-1-apps-multiscreen-t3193389
[Huawei MediaPad X2] jasmithers:
Yes, Android 6.0 has split-screen!!

I stumbled on this by accident, but Android 6.0 on my completely-stock Mediapad X2 GEM-702L (Build number GEM-702LC158B202/EMUI 4.0/Android 6.0) does indeed have split-screen capability. This is how it works:

1) Touch the screen to get the row/column of soft buttons to appear (you know the ones -- triangle=back, circle=home, square=multitask).

2) Press and HOLD the square (multitask) button. After a second or so the currently-open application will be shunted to a half-screen window, leaving the other half open for a second app.

NOTE: Not all apps are compatible with split-screen. For example, I've had Google Maps and Waze sharing the screen in split-screen mode -- very cool -- but my default music app (Poweramp) does not support split-screen.

LG Unified Driver installed.

I opened command prompt, locate adb platform-tools. Ran the following commands

adb reboot bootloader.

The phone rebooted to bootloader.

On the bootloader mode on the phone, I typed

fastboot reboot

The phone rebooted properly

Does it work right?

Currently the phone is not ready to unlock bootloader until there's no problem, especially speaker problem, found.

[Android Auto General] swooc:
anyone have problems getting navigation to re-route to a no toll road? i use the voice command to avoid tolls, navigation will re-route, but it will re-route to the same direction as the previous direction with the toll roads (so in essence it did nothing). if i choose route options, my navigation will just hang on re-route. all of this works perfect on maps on my phone where i can manually selet no tolls or motorways in the route options.

both maps and android auto are the latest. have tried re-installing both, no luck. using it on a z5 with the latest firmware.

edit: found out it was because i was using offline maps which does't allow alternative routes such and toll avoidance. however i'm forced to use offline maps because going online means endless reroute hangs and the can't connect to google server error. wtf google. ****, android auto and maps gets worse with every update.
[Android Auto General] Nova5:
Data connection issues? Need stanle fast data for mapping.
[Android Auto General] swooc:
hmm could be, but i doubt it. it use to work flawlessly on older builds.

my workaround for this is to load up the no toll route (still offline maps) on my phone then connect it to AA and have it shown on the navigation panel. a bit of a pita to do. but better than nothing i guess.
[Android Auto General] doitright:
I might suggest that you look into a more robust offline mapping system, like ALK Copilot.

I personally use a combination of google maps (for in-town and traffic sensitive routing), and Copilot (for out of town bad/no network situations).
[Android Auto General] swooc:
thanks for the suggestion. but google maps is really the only mapping system i want to use since i only really use it in my car as navigation via android auto (unless you can have alk co pilot running via android auto?). the no network problem is easily solved by downloading the offline portion of the map. good thing is that it seems to re-route even if you go off course a little. it really is just the crappy online syncing that i'm having problems with. don't know if it's the app, googles servers, or perhaps my mobile connection/phone.

My LEX727 only gets AnTuTu score of 154416, I never get in the range of 165000.
[LeEco Le Pro3 Questions & Answers] Joms_US:
Free up memory, disable services and make sure the phone idles for 30 mins or more before running the benchmark.
[LeEco Le Pro3 Questions & Answers] Scitzofrenic:
I literally did NONE of that with my x727 and I got 164,000 and some change on my benchmark. I literally turned the phone off for about 5 minutes, turned it back on for about 10 minutes and let it sit there for 10 minutes, then ran the bench and got 164,000 and some change. No need to try to artifically inflate it by disabling anything. The hardware on this phone is amazing. It should easily be scoring low 160's with no hiccup whatsoever, if you're in the 150's and the phone is not hot or throttling something is wrong with your hardware.
[LeEco Le Pro3 Questions & Answers] Joms_US:
My phone is running 3 emails, fingerprint gestures, power toggles, antivirus, facebook, messenger, hangout and many more browser tabs etc. so dedicating resources to benchmark app and making sure phone is not throttling helps. Not following this is a common mistake of 99% reviewers out there.
