samsung gear s3 - Huawei Mate 10 Questions & Answers

Hi there,
my huawei is not compatible with the samsung gear s3.
Any help?

Hey tripple X man. They are lying, as always, everything is compatible, my Mate 10 works perfectly fine with my Samsung Gear S3. I downloaded Samsung Gear and S plugin from https://www_apkmirror_com/apk/samsu...msung-gear-2-2-17022862-android-apk-download/, installed both an everything is OK. Hope it works for you too.

i can confirm too my pro 10 works with my S3

So my gear fit 2 but with 127 firmware i don't get the calls.
With 115 everything is fine!!!!!!

Can you guys browse your phone to buy a watch face?it just freezes on me everytime I try and browse

Mine is working as well. I had to turn off automatic power management of all gear related apps to make sure the system doesn't kill the app in background. Now it works like charm...

With my Gear s3 connected to my Mate 10 Pro the battery on my mate drains really fast. Like 15% during the night (7 hours)
If I uninstall Gear S Plugin, Samsung Health and Samsung Gear battery is normal again. 1% down during the night
Anyone else with battery drain problem while running Gear apps on their phone?

I had Bluetooth issues with my Xiaomi smart watch. Constantly disconnected. I think it's the aggressive ram management system. Had to return it

I am having trouble receiving notifications with what's history and notification wear apps.
I only receive messages when my phone screen is on.
I then noticed that when I open up what Bluetooth devices I gave paired, select S3 I see that input device is not selected. But it won't let me select it.
Could this be the reason? If so, how to rectify it?

[Q] Notifications Details Not Showing Most of the Time

I have two Gear Fits connected to two non-Samsung phones (Nexus 4 and a Sony Xperia Z Ultra). Both have the same issue where most notifications will not show details, but just a message of: "For details, view this notification on your mobile device."
There seems to be no consistency of when I may or may not get details. Sometimes it shows it for a bunch of notifications in a row, but once it stops working, I have no idea when it might start working again. Anybody else have this problem and any ideas?
Additional info:
Gear Fits on firmware NG2, Gear Fit Manager 1.70
I have the same issue as well and no idea why it happens, I usually try to restart the phone and I think it gets back to working

I used to have this issue. It occurs when the host fit is connected back to the device after any loss of connection. The guy works everytime. Once you connect fit to phone, go to gear manager app, notifications, use the switch at the top to turn off all notifications. Wait 5 sec, turn notifications back on. Will be fine until next time fit disconnects. So repeat with each connection.

Make sure the notifications are set properly within those two applications to allow audible notifications and not just vibrate or system default sound. I have the same issue with my Google Now app.
How can i check that configuration? i have this problem just on the gear s, in my phone is working ok.

In the application on your phone, but if the audible notifications are working on your phone then thats not the problem. The issue isnt with your gear device its an application issue.
Are you connected via bluetooth or remote connectivity? Also try going into the gear manager and turn notifications OFF then restart both devices. Once both are restarted and connected via bluetooth again go back into gear manager and turn notifications back on and restart both devices again.

[Q] New battery drain issue due to Bluetooth

I've been using my Gear S in combination with a Note Edge since February 2, and the battery life was good (typically 50% or so at the end of the day). About two weeks ago the Gear S started draining really fast, running out of battery before my day was over. As part of my troubleshooting, I factory reset both the Gear S and the Note Edge, and ran several tests with and without Bluetooth and 3G (I left GPS and WiFi off all the time). The only thing that is causing the rapid battery drain is the Bluetooth connection to the phone (i.e., connected remotely via 3G = great battery life; connected via Bluetooth = crappy-ass battery life).
Is anyone else experiencing this particular scenario (Bluetooth connection recently starting to drain your battery)?
Thanks for any help you may provide.
Have you installed any new apps that could cause this and it functions only on Bluetooth? I had wearable widgets and clock which were not even active but seemed to cause battery drain and slowness.

No, I haven't installed any apps on the Gear S since I reset it. It would be nice to have a battery monitoring app.
OK, maybe the charger is different and the battery is not being charged at full power..

The battery gets charged to 100% using the original power supply and charging cradle. And like I said before, the watch lasts forever when connected via 3G, so it can't be a battery issue. I was thinking it was a bad Gear Manager update, but then a lot of people would be having the same issue.
There are many reports of BT battery drain after recent Gear Manager update (a month or two ago). Some solved it by re-install the Gear Manager. Not everyone is affected.

I guess you can count me as one of the affected ones. Reinstalling Gear Manager is not doing diddly squat. I ran another test: no apps whatsoever, the only variable being the connection to the phone via Bluetooth. 45% over 5.5 hours during the night, with Do Not Disturb on. Balls...

Here's what I've found being with a Gear since V1 was first released. Gear Manager is a PIA and when updates to it or the device occur flaky things can happen. Whenever I update either I always do the following in the order shown:
Unpair the Gear in BT settings so it's no longer a connectable BT device
Hard reset the Gear by long pressing the power button and doing a recovery
In application manager on my phone I go through each Gear-related Samsung and/or third party app installed and delete it making sure the core Gear Manager app is the last uninstalled. Some of the secondary Gear apps come back after they're are installed but get removed with the removal of the core Gear App at the end
Reinstall Gear Manager from Samsung Apps on my phone and go through the whole pairing process again with the Gear being seen by the phone and the phone being seen by the Gear as "virgin."
Even though my G-S was virgin, I set it up enough to take the AT&T update and once it was updated went through all the steps above.
I've had no issues like call forwarding not working, connections are fantastic, and battery life seems reasonable (I've had the G-S less than a week so don't have anything to compare it to). I never had some of the other issues people reported on the Gear I either.
The main difference I would think between connecting via BT and 3G would be the sync of the notifications - on BT it would be synchronous and trying to get all notifications and on 3G the phone just pushes notifications and possibly the watch is not waiting for them.. maybe check the application list in Gear manager to see if any app could be sending a lot of notifications or continuously running..
I recently just did a factory reset on both the Gear S and the Note 4. I used to have around 300 apps that would auto download every time I logged into my Google account. I deleted my Google back up so those apps wouldn't download again. I don't have nearly as many apps on both devices and my battery life has improved dramatically. The more apps you have, the more your battery drains. It doesn't matter if its a smartwatch or a phone.
Thanks for all your suggestions. I had no apps installed on the watch at all, and I only had notifications turned on for texts. Since I had just factory reset the Note Edge, it was also a fresh installation of Gear Manager, and only one Google account set up on the phone - no other apps. So, empty phone, empty watch, and the battery was still draining like crazy when connected via Bluetooth. Then all of a sudden, it fixed itself, without me doing anything. No new version of the Manager, no changing of settings, nothing.
I'm glad it's fixed, but it's bugging me that I have no clue how it got fixed. I've been installing apps on the phone, and everything is still OK. Now I'm going to install apps on the watch, and I have a feeling it'll all be OK with that too.
I have had the same issue and in fact the battery drains fast if gear s bluetooth is on even without it being connected, I have factory reset it and reinstalled gear manager with almost zero apps connected and still get fast drainage, battery dies in less than 3 hours, no idea what to do next apart from Samsung warranty

Smart watches compatability

I had a Ticwatch E before switching to the mix 3 but using it on the mix 3 now I've had so many connectivity issues. Sometimes I'd get notifications and then sometimes the watch would disconnect, just wondering if anyone is using a smart watch that doesn't have these issues or if this is just an issue with the mix 3 and ticwatches.
Thanks
My moto 360 1st gen has also some issues.

I have Huawei Watch GT, no problems at all.
No problems at all here with a Huawei Watch 2 Classic
Amazfit Pace and no problem
Dont know what happens but now All Apps works and the notification grafics are now perfekt again. No more Problems with transpatency

I had some connection issues as well.
I figured out that it only loses connection when I kill all apps and so i tinkered with a few settings:
- disable power-saving for wear OS app
- enable auto start for wear OS
It still loses the connection if you kill all apps but reconnects as soon as you check your watch.
It never loses the connection if I don't kill apps (anymore?).
Hope that helps!

Open recent apps, long press Wear OS app, and tap on the lock, now, even if you kill all apps, Wear OS won't be killed

True, but than you have to open the app in general while it is never actively opened otherwise.
Same thing with automatic started music that gets killed, even when you don't have your player open.
I've got the Galaxy Watch (46mm) and I am able to use it but with a caveat; if you unlock the bootloader you MUST root with Magisk in order to hide the fact that the bootloader is unlocked. Otherwise, the Galaxy Wear app and Samsung Pay with not even open, and you won't be able to connect the Galaxy Watch to your phone. If you keep the bootloader locked and don't want root access, it works normally.
I have a Gear 2 I flashed with Android Wear and it's been working perfectly.
My Watch GT doesn't automatically reconnect after I go out of Bluetooth range.
I've whitelisted all apps from the MIUI battery saver and granted all permissions.
I have also LOCKED the Huawei Health app to stop the system from closing it.
Once Bluetooth has disconnected, The ONLY way to get the watch to reconnect, is by opening Huawei Health or toggling the phone's Bluetooth off & on.
Unsure if it's the Huawei Health app or MIUI that is at fault.
Very frustrating.
Also using a Galaxy Watch (46mm) and it works great for the most part. You do have to root with Magisk to hide the unlocked bootloader (if you unlocked it). Other than that, for some reason I lose notifications on the watch almost every time I reboot the phone or put it in battery saver/extreme battery saver. This has something to do with the way MIUI handles notification access and is very annoying since the only way to fix it is to disconnect the watch from your phone (as in unlink it which wipes the watch NOT just turn off bluetooth), uninstall the Galaxy Wearable app completely, reboot, then re-install the Galaxy Wearable app, reconnect the watch, and restore my backed up data to the watch. It only takes a few minutes now that I know exactly what fixes it but it is really annoying that I avoid using battery saver and rebooting just to not have to deal with uninstalling and reinstalling the watch. If anyone has any better fix for this please let me know lol.
Does anyone use a FitBit? My wife bought a FitBit Versa and it constantly shows and error about the notifications not being available. She has to constantly reboot the phone to get notifications working correctly.

I bought the FitBit Versa and had to return it due to notifications never working, even with all battery saving options disabled it just didn't work. Picked up the Galaxy Watch Active instead and that works perfectly, I'd recommend it instead if you still have the option of returning the FitBit. Used it with MIUI at first which worked perfectly after disabling the battery saving features.
I'm now rooted with Pixel Experience, had to download an older version of Samsung Pay to get it to work without detecting root and it's working great on that too.

Well, I've been trying to get her to return the watch, but she's looking at other phones instead. Left her to it. Ha!

Full functions with Non-Samsung phone?

Just switched from a bootloader locked Samsung to a oneplus phone (should have switched looooooong ago!) and have 2 gear S watches that both connected and functioned fine with the Galaxy Wearable App which would let me receive notifications, send/receive SMS and phone calls. The oneplus with Galaxy wearable app does not see the Gear S whatsoever. The only thing that works on the watch is to connect it via bluetooth directly to the phone, which offers almost no watch functionality.
I have tried older versions of the gear app on the phone with no luck.
Moral of the story: I will send $50 to the first person able to get the wearable app to connect to the Gear S watch and function as it did with a Samsung phone.
Love this watch and miss having it working already!
Thanks in advance!
This old Samsung watch works only on Samsung phone. there are some hack but almost none of them works.
