I've searched a lot and there are many threads about this issue, but didn't find a solution.
The problem is that when data connection is active I cannot receive calls in my car. The phone is connected vie bluetooth with the stereo, the phonebook is synchronized, but when I receive a call it just hangs up.
If I turn data connection off everything works fine and I am able to make and receive calls.
So, the question is, is there a way to use my phone in the car while data connection is ON?
i have the same issue , there is a registry change that is supposed to work...either i'm not editing correctly or the registry fix does not work.

Is there away to set the data connection to NOT connect while I am on a voice call?
Every so often ill be on a phone call with a client and suddenly my data connection activates.. probably from active sync... and it drops my voice calls.
Will I have this issue if I switch to HSPA on bells new network?
has no one else experienced this?
you need a GSM phone.
CDMA is ballz.
i hate bell.
so is there not away to set the phone not to connect while its on a voice call?
Will HSPA suffer from the same thing?
None of the roms I have used allow data to disconnect voice, but works other way around.
What rom are you using?
hello all,
I have just updated my TP to 3.0.4 and was eager to see that we can now connect none palm phones to the TP and send/receive phone calls and sms via the TP. THe good news is that now my TP does recognize my Evo (running Decks ROM / CM7 based) but I can not use it for anything, not even to transfer files (pictures, documents, etc...) does anyone know how to correct this? Or is this feature still not supported for the Evo? TIA.
Having same problem with EVO and TP paring.
I have also been able to pare my HTC EVO with the TP as a phone but cannot make or receive calls, send or receive sms messages. Every time I try the TP has a pop up that states Must be connected to phone, I click on this and verify that the EVO is connected but still cannot do anything?
If your touchpad is connected to your phone via bluetooth, and you have that blue check on your touchpad saying your connected, then you're good to go.
However, I believe your only limited to receiving phone calls on your touchpad, nothing else. No making phone calls, no sending/receiving files.
Give it a shot: connect it via bluetooth, make sure its connected, and call your cell phone from a house phone or something. Your hp touchpad should light up prompting you to receive the call.
The bluetooth profile required for all of this to work properly is implemented on very few handsets. It doesn't work properly for most people.
A number of recent HTC handsets supposedly support it, but it sounds like the Evo doesn't.

you sir, are correct. I am only able to receive phone calls. Anyone referencing this thread should know that (at least with the evo) you can not make phone calls, send/receive sms or mms, or transfer files via Bluetooth. You can only receive calls. Maybe someone in the dev community will create a fix or patch for this in time. In any event, its an improvement.
I was able to pair my HTC Sensation to my touchpad and was able to make/receive calls and send/receive text messages
Mods for EVO?
Are there mods that can be made to a rooted EVO that would allow to both send and receive calls and sms? If so what and where would they be found?
Sorry if this has been asked and answered already, but I couldn't find anything.
When I receive TXT messages while connected via bluetooth, my Samsung Focus would give me the option to read the message. For some reason my Titan doesn't do this on the same BT devices I was using with the Focus.
I can compose TXT messages and do other voice functions via BT, but I never get that new message notification and it never gives me the option to read the messages. Is there a setting or something that I am missing?
Thanks
Yes. Setting->Speech. At the bottom of that page is how you would like incoming text message be read.
Thanks. It was set to Bluetooth only already. I'll try Bluetooth and headsets and see if that fixes it.

What I found interesting of this feature is that while connected to my home phone's built-in cell phone BT gateway (which supports headset profile only), it will announce it via phone's speaker once. Then it rings my home phone until I pick it up, then announce the same thing through my home phone (via BT).
Unfortunatly that still doesn't work. Very odd
One Crucial thing that I have noticed with the reading text messages out feature, is that it Won't read anything unless you have the ringer set to sound. And I mean actually Sound not vibrate. It makes Sense, as if you don't Want your ringer to Sound, Why would you want the phone to yell out your text message?Try that and see if that Works.
Ah good call. I'm rarely more than a few feet from my phone, so lately I almost always leave it in vibrate only.
Thanks, now I can txt in the car again
Hi,
I've noticed that on my SGS3, when Wifi is on, the phone isn't ringing at all and the calls are forwarded to my VM. Only after turning the Wifi off, the phone starts receiving the calls.
Did it happen to anyone else here?
I would appreciate any info how to resolve this problem.
Thanks!
no it's strange , meter read anything like this before , take a backup using kies and reset your phone
to get smart relay activated properly you must first turn on the mobile data connection on your phone then the mobile data connection on your watch. if the gear s has auto mobile data defaulted, in 60 seconds you will not have to activate it manually.
This method is to get the calls forwarded. Again, to establish the remote connection both phone and watch mobile data connections must be established. If youre connected to wifi the remote connection will not work.
Once call forwarding or remote connection has been established it is not necessary to keep the mobile data connections on either the phone or watch. The remote setup has been worked out through your cellular provider and there isn't a need to keep data on if you don't need them.
This must be done every time to get it working. I'm using both a tmobile bought gear S and note 4. It all works brilliantly.
if i have the phone and watch connected, and i receive a call, and answer it from the watch, will i speak from the phone? its easier to slide from the watch...
Hello I'm having great problems with remote connection. All I get is error message when I try to activate it. all it says is error has occurred please try again. I have note 4 and tmobile. I'm stuck and been researching for 2 days now. Any ideas?

Redo call forwarding setup both on gear manager and watch itself
Mine takes 2-4 tries to connect but after that its flawless
It has to have remote connection first to do the call forwarding
Any ideas?
A good reset/Uninstall the apps always helps me
Yeah tried. Nothing. Now its not recognizing my sim card
i get the same error forwarding calls when moving from BT to mobile connection. although the watch shows me the notifications, it keeps the error.try again.
how do i redo the call forwarding protocol on both devices?

I am nor completely clear.....are you saying that each time you know you will be leaving your phone at home, you must manually set up Remote Connection and then turn it off when you reconnect to the watch via bluetooth? I thought is was supposed to be automatic. Also, does this Remote Connection require a data plan to allow it to function? I am in Canada and none of the carriers have a "wearable plan". I just purchased a prepaid nanoSIM from Rogers and signed up for a talk & text plan but no data and I don't want to be paying big $ for data if the watch requires data to function with Remote Connection. HELP!

As far as I'm aware there are actually two separate issues to consider here.
1) If you turn on Call Forwarding in the Gear Manager app on your phone, then calls to your phone (using your phone number) will ring on your watch when not connected through Bluetooth (by being forwarded to your watch #). This is simply call forwarding and all you need is a watch plan that allows voice; no data plan required. You would normally use this when you want to leave the phone at home and receive calls on your watch while you're out, etc. The forwarding isnt automatic, you turn it on or off as required in Gear Manager.
2) If you have a plan that allows data (or have access to a wifi connection) then you will be able to receive texts and all notifications from your phone on your watch when connected remotely. You won't be able to receive calls in real time with only a data plan though, unless you also have a voice plan and forward calls as per #1 above. On the bright side, you will still get the missed call notification if your watch plan allows data, so while you can't answer the call you can always call them back right away. Data plans (or wifi) allow for the remote connection to your phone when out of bluetooth range. This remote connection is possible because without bluetooth, the phone and watch can only sync up through your Samsung account, which is why they need some sort of data connection. Once you've set everything up on your phone and watch, the remote connection will happen autonatically within 60 seconds of losing bluetooth connectivity.

Thanks for the clarification. I currently only have the Talk & Text plan so I will have to see how much data is used to push the information. I may have to get a data plan as well.

So to further ask questions about these things..
I just got the watch today and have been searching and trying to find tips on it...
If I am connected via bluetooth.. why does my watch not ring? I thought I could pretty much leave my phone in my pocket all day and do everything through the watch (receive calls and what not). I notice the "messages" app ONLY has messages in there sent from the watch itself. If I get a text message I can view it (not reply..) and it does not show up on the actual watch texts... ideas?
Thanks in advanced.
Hey all,
I just have a question. Lets assume we do have a phone with SIM-A and the Watch with SIM-B. They are connected via bluetooth and for a reason, bluetooth connection get lost. Theoretically, the calls from SIM-A should be diverted to SIM-B. Automatically. Correct?
Because, practically, I am trying this with the Galaxy S7 edge with two sims (SM-G935FD) and it is not working. I got only missed-call notification. The call is not diverted and the phone is still ringing. However, I can do it manually, which of course is not as advertised.
