You're not supposed to need to do anything. Are you using a Samsung phone with Gear Manager installed? Or are you using a non Samsung phone ...
Also are you connected to the phone using Bluetooth?

Hm, I'm not sure of what's going on. So when you are connected to the Samsung phone with Bluetooth, and you try to send a text message with your Gear S, it says that there is an error on the watch and won't send the SMS?

Hi
I tried again and discovered that he is sending the sms via the phone but that should not be, the messages should be send via the gear S itself doesn't it

A normal Nano card. not the same as the one in the samsung but should that make any different. On this part the gear S should work stand alone or not?
Thanks for helping by the way

I mean what phone company is the Gear S Nano SIM from? Is it the same as the one who provides your phone service?
I'm trying to figure out where you are. Here in the US, the Gear S is available on our four major carriers, with separate versions for each.

HEY ALL YOU galaxy tab 10.1 owners...
was wondering is it possibile to insert sim and recieve sms...mms and make calls
thanks...
To be very short: nope. Not with the standard firmware.
Yes, you can send and receive sms and mms messages with stock firmware. It is not possible to make phone calls.
but is there a tweaked firmware that allows to make call

i really hope and i think it has the hardware.. as tab 8.9 has that call feature.
Is there any way to disable the SMS feature as well?
If I insert my sim into my tablet, I only want to use the data connection (incase my phone battery dies and I cant use wifi tethering anymore).
I want my SMS to stay with the provider and only be delivered to my mobile when I charge it and switch it back on.
Is this possible?
I think you can uninstall the message app, but i am not sure. But why dont you just get a simcard for data only, it will also saving you for swapping the sim

Samsung Galaxy 10.1 3G T-Mobile making VOICE CALLS
I just purchased >Groove IP from the Market for $5.99> went in to my gVoice settings and forwarded the calls to my mobile phone and gtalk> and I can make and receive calls. I have tried it over 3G and wifi and it works flawlessly and it is very clear. Good Luck and Good Calling!
Got the Galaxy Tab 10.1 3G here in Ireland and am wondering if this can send and receive SMS?
Cheers,

Why would someone want to use the 10.1" GT for voice - apart from being cumbersome and unwieldy even if there is bluetooth.... This is more personal entertainment and to an extent an excellent business tool alternative especially when you do not wish to lug the laptop but still need email and similar functionality.

Here's the deal...
Use SVoice on my Note4 and say "text this person" "my message" and then "send" all is good.
Use SVoice on my GearS and do the same using the same name and Gear S says that person is not in my contact list.
Check my contact list on the GearS and low and behold, they are there.
Any ideas? I've done a full reset on my GearS & it was working fine when I had my Note2 connected.

I am having this same problem connected to my S5, only for me not all contacts are showing in my Gear.
I attempted to contact Samsung customer support for this issue. They told me that only the phone contacts will show on the gear and synced contacts will not. I tried to explain that all of my contacts are synced via my gmail and not a single one has been entered on my device, but she insisted that only phone contacts will display.

I was able to find a work around. I edited the contacts that were not showing up (I starred the contact) and it then synced with my Gear S. I then unstarred the contact and the star went away on my phone and Gear but the contact remained.
To make it easier I starred the contact in my gmail and hit the sync on my phone, instead of doing it all on my phone.
Can I please ask, if someone calls your note 4 or whatever phone you have connected to your gear s does the call still come though to your watch
I use gear 1 with tab 10.5 s 4G and use this as my phone so u can understand why I use gear 1 to take calls, with gear s I would still like people to call my tab and answer on watch, is this still going to be possible
cheers

Yes if some one calls my phone the call can be answered on my Gear. If connected via bluetooth they will ring at the same time. If running in standalone I have call forwarding setup so the call will be forwarded to my Gear. One complaint I have at the moment and have not looked into a work around for is if connected via bluetooth and I ignore a call (either on the Gear or phone) the call will then still be forwarded to my Gear.
Do you have the Tab S 10.5, the Gear S does not connect to mine!!! So I have 2 standalone devices, I only bought into this whole smart watch nonsense because I use a tablet as my phone, so now I have ended up with 2 separate numbers????
I'd be keen to have the Gear S as my main "phone" - for phone calls and texts.
I'd have to tell all my contacts " this is my new number " or perhaps my telcos (Telstra Australia) could port my existing number to the Gear S.
I'd still (obvs) need to have a host Samsung phone on a plan, always charged / plugged in to the network - but I would still be able to utilise the functionality of the paired Gear S / Samsung phone ecosystem (including the few Gear S Apps which are useful) without say the call forwarding headaches or having two numbers?
would that work?

Huh??
Just put your phone sim in your GS. Use the same number.
Just have your phone at home with no sim connected to your WiFi.
There are some issues that you might be willing to live with or you could always fall back to the normal setup with two Sims.
The call forwarding and two numbers is not a headache in the least. Works brilliantly.

i have that on a high data plan which was originally used for my ahem iPhone + tethering that to my laptop. I can now downgrade that plan as my contract time is up - which is part of the reason why i ask my question now
- if my operator has a suitable shared data plan i could presumably change to that and swap sims

It did seem to work for me like that at first, but if it always worked brilliantly I wouldn't be asking the question
I've tried giving my Gear S number to work colleagues, told them to use that number especially when I'm travelling in and out of cellphone range (er check the flag and the location)
what happens is i return to a load of missed calls & messages on the Galaxy S4 host phone some of which were important
(+/- notifications on the Gear S - I still can't figure out if they reappear when i get cell coverage again or when I reconnect to the S4 host phone via BT)
I was kinda asking / trying to articulate: if the Gear S had my "one & only" official personal phone number, would that work as a simplified personal use case scenario in line with my Gear S as my one phone zeitgeist with no obvious drawbacks
I might still have occasional use for the host device - but its only essential function would be a Gear S enabler (ok something of an expensive function)
bookmark to Android central Gear S discussion
Go into the phone settings >Call>Additional Settings >Call Forwarding >Forward when unanswered & Forward when unreachable, then enter your Gear S number. You can also use Forward when busy, if you want to bypass voice mail.

Following this advice I've set my Galaxy S4 to Always forward to my Gear S number and will see how that works.
I also done gone ahead with a shared data plan.
Some of the call forwarding options previously greyed out or otherwise denied now seem available - whether through following the advice in the link above or through the telcos allowing more options on that plan versus the Gear S being on a prepaid/ PAYGO i dunno
I also ordered an S6
Apologies for grouchy reply above but I don't think I've been alone in having erratic call-forwarding issues
i'm still puzzled how your suggestion to have a sim-free Gear Manager compatible phone plugged in at home & connected to wifi would work - the host phone would still need a GSM connection for the few useful apps to work - and indeed a number for my telcos to redirect from?

Yes, you can receive and also I believe make phone calls with the Gear S without it having a SIM car as long as it is connected via bluetooth to your phone. It will use your phone's number and cellular connection.
The advantage of having a SIM car in your Gear S is that is gets its own phone number and cellular connection. This means that you can leave your phone at home or whatever and use your Gear S for phone calls, GPS, texting, web surfing with the Opera Mini browser. You can also have phone calls forwarded from your smartphones phone number to your Gear S phone number when the bluetooth connection is lost, but that means that your smartphone will ring, than instead of going to voicemail like normal, it will ring on your Gear S, than you can answer it there or after that it will go to voicemail.
Thanks for informations
Yes, you can both answer and make calls from your synced cell phone on the Gear S. I have a data only SIM in my Gear S and it still makes calls through my phone by default. Note: I and using it with a Lumia 1520, so that's about all it does with my phone.
My Tab S6 LTE (T867) does not have Samsung phone app. But has messages app and it receives SMS. I tried to load the latest Samsung phone app from apkmirror but it failed.
On its box there is a writing "LTE Data Only".
How can I receive and make voice calls with my tablet?

Not for me. I have this feature since Android 10 update. That's why I have started this thread about 3 months ago.
What region are you located in?
SM-T865 can be used as a normal smart phone. Doesn't need any extra features.
The feature sms/calls on other devices requires Samsung account and a Samsung phone. It will work on devices without a SIM card or with a SIM just for data when it's connected through Samsung account with a Samsung mobile phone. It's quite that simple
