i have the samsung note AT&T with ICS 4.0.3 and i cannot answer my calls from the MOTOACTV or return calls from it. the call back button is grey out i can't press it to received calls or to call back. i also have the motorola sf600 bluetooth , i can see the call on the device but i can't answer from it i have to use the button on the bluetooth to answer my calls.
I have a MOTOACTV and did some testing last night using my Note and my Motorola Atrix.
I have a bluetooth headset, and after connecting it I could not answer calls using the MOTOACTV with EITHER phone. I then connected a wired headset and was able to answer calls using the MOTOACTV, but only on the Atrix, not on the Note.
Just curious--did you install the hacked app before Moto released the new app that is supposed to work on any phone?
I tried it with my Gnote and I coulldnt get ANY notifications from the phone at all. And yes its connected. I have tried both the modified version and the newest version of the motoactv app. I also clicked yes and no when deciding what phone I have. ie with motorola phone ver2.1+.
My motoactv is rooted with Cleardroid 1.1.2A rom. Firmware version is 1.1.6. Any help to even get the SMS notification would be greatly appreciated.
Updated: Turns out Handscent SMS is not supported. Now I can see notifications, calling and text. However I cannot answer through the motoactv. I dont even know if i can do that...Any answer would help.
i have since returned my to bestbuy
i don't think it's possible to get all the fuctions working if you don't have a motorola phone. i gave up i went and got all my money back from them. **** this, i'll wait for samsung to come out with one that does with everything or at lease works with samsung phones.i'm not about to buy a motorola phone just to get this thing to work lol.
I have been using the Sony Smartwatch for the last week on the note and been working great! love it! havent charged it in 5 days!
yep the Sony watch looks nice but it is really a different device than the Motoactv.
Primarily the Motoactv has a GPS. I the Moto for golf, marathon training and bicycling. It has wifi auto connectivity and upload and auto sensor connections to Heartrate monitor, bicycle cadence, etc.
It does have a few software issues such as interval training, short battery life, and i can't get it to work at all via bluetooth with my Note. IT connects but that's it...no messages, etc. LUCKILY the problem areas aren't of interest to me but I can see where it is frustrating for those who do need those features.
For my activities...golf, running, bicycling...it's awesome. Was the gorilla glass since it can break...just like smartphones.
where did you get from ?

Have you tried using the earphones that came with the device? (ie. sf200)
Also try this: Go to bluetooth settings on the Note and click on the Motoactv. It should say something like "Connected to phone audio" under the device name. That's how I got my wired earphones to work. For some reason it doesn't automatically connect.
Haven't tried it with a bluetooth headset though.
Sorry for posting here. Old thread, but I think this is going to help.
Tried this with My S3 and my motoactv and worked well. You have to sync your headset to your motoactv AND your gnote.
bit . ly / OaSFJQ (put it together, cant post links 'cause im a newbie)
Not what I wanted but It works and I can answer calls right from the Headset (i'm using a jaybird freedom btw)
hope it helps!!
:good:

Sorry this is a reply to an old post, but I was really interested in getting the Sony Smartwatch but was a little let down when the site sad it would only work with certain phones and the Note wasnt listed. Have you have any issues?
I have a stock AT&T S4. It is running 4.4.2. I picked up the Gear Fit yesterday and it took an entire day to get the Gear Fit manager to finally recognize the device. Bluetooth picked up the device no problem and the pair was successful, but the Fit Manager would not proceed. I was running the latest version (from 4/25/14).
After about 100 attempts (literally), it finally recognized the device and updated the firmware. That seemed to help and I was able to perform the initial configuration. Now the device constantly disconnects. I can only get it to stay connected for about 5 minutes. This is after multiple device and Fit reboots.
As of this morning, I have tried about 20 times and it hasn't connected once. This is VERY frustrating. Samsung really needs to get their act together here. I was super excited when this came out, but if things don't improve I will be forced to return it.
Has anyone else experienced this? Any tips to get this thing working?
I would advice you to try and connect it to other device and see if that helps, maybe there is something wrong with your S4 and not Fit.

I exchanged it at Best Buy and the new one has been working flawlessly (so far).
IT doesn't play well at all with other bluetooth devices trying to connect at the same time - this may be the problem. Everytime I get into my car, there is a tremendous battle between my handsfree and the gear fit, lol, each one keeps disconnecting and reconnecting, fighting for supremacy!

I have the same. If I start the car with Gear Fit off, let the bluetooth car kit connect and then connect Gear fit, everything is fine. But if I try to connect car kit with Gear Fit connected, car kit is simply go into infinite loop connecting/disconnecting. I am pretty sure it was working at least once without issue in the past, so it might be related to update of Gear fit management application. Hopefully Samsung will fix it.
I bought a Gear Fit from Best Buy as well, and it did the same: connected with bluetooth no problem, but would not connect in the gear fit manager. I messed with it for about 2 hours and finally gave up and returned it back to Best Buy.

Hi, i been trying to connect my samsung gear s2 with my tablet sm-t377v but the gear app said no found any device, i been trying to root the tablet but i don't find anything neither, any suggestion will be great.

Hi all,
Sorry if this has already been covered, but all the info I can find is for the original Gear Fit.
Has anybody been able to get the Gear Fit 2 working with a custom rom on a Samsung Device? I'm trying to run LineageOS 14 on my GS5 but have had no success getting Open Fit or any of the Samsung Gear Manager APKs to talk to the gear. Bluetooth connection works fine, but can't get past that. I managed to get Gear Manager installed, but get a message "The operating system on your phone has been modified..." and I can't get past that screen.
Anybody had luck on the GF2 on custom roms?
Gear Fit2 works on ALL android phone with the PlayStore Gear Manager version
Ok it seems to work with some editing of the /system/build.prop file, then re-downloading the Samsung Gear app from the playstore. Works for CM14. See this thread:

Hello,
I've been trying for days to connect a Gear Fit 2 to a Galaxy S 3 Mini.
I have tried on the S3 Mini both a 5.1.1 as well as a 6.0.1 of CM.
The build.prop I have modified and all "samsung" replaced by "htc".
Various Samsung Gear Apps I've tried (including Gear Plugin).
The app can not find the Gear Fit 2, pairing works
With an iPhone it works, as well with the S 7 Edge of my wife.
Any ideas ?
Many Thanks
Thomas

LOL. Of all brands, iPhones! Clearly you haven't heard about Louis Rossman's vendetta against Apple, hehe. While Samsung sucks regarding this issue in particular, it's still leagues above Apple. Though give it time and I'm sure it'll get worse. I really think we can't appreciate enough how valuable it is that Android is open source.
I have just aquired an Honor 10 and gear s3 watch. Try as I might, no amount of clearing data/cache has worked. Everything reinstalled multiple times... I have upgraded the firmware on the watch by pairing with another phone.
Basically the watch will pair with the phone, but the app/plugin crashes as soon as I accept the pairing. I think the S plugin fails to open, and the galaxy app then crashes. I'm not sure if this is better posted here or in the gear s3 forum, but to be honest this is driving me mad.
I would really appreciate it if anyone could throw any light on this!!

Don't really have experience with this myself but I heard that majority of non-samsung phones have issues with Samsung galaxy gear watches. You might consider refunding them and getting some wear OS watch instead, snapdragon 3100 for watches is launching soon and it'll be better anyway.
