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 currently just got my new S6 edge here in Australia on OPTUS network.
The problem I am having is I transferred my sms messages from my old S4 to the new S6 and now for some odd reason when I go into the contact to msg someone it hangs for a bit before it reacts to my inputs? Any idea what it might be?
I have the exact same issue. Everything about the messaging app is slow, even typing messages is horrible.
Hello,
I've updated my s6 edge to this official 6.0.1 Rom .. but since then I am having connexion problems .. facebook and messenger for exemple lose internet connexion sometimes and i must wait until reconnect again.. I cannot also recieve my emails due to this lost of connexion.
Anyone can please help me.
Thanks.
Sent from my SM-G925F using XDA-Developers mobile app
a friend came to me today with SAMSUNG GALAXY J7 SM-J727V his mobile phone was connected to the internet (sending whatsapp messages, google search) whilst the Wi-Fi and mobile data is off, the same thing happened to a SAMSUNG GALAXY S6 SM-G920V
can someone plz help me with this problem?
I've searched the different forums for the S3 without luck, so please if this has already been answered let me know what thread.
I am moving from an AT&T branded Tab S to a US Cellular branded Tab S3 on AT&T. I've asked and confirmed they updated the IMEI on the AT&T side to reflect the Tab S3. What I would like to do is get the same calls and texts on the Tab S3 as my S8+. I know I can get other apps like Google Voice to make calls but I would like to connect the Tab as the primary bluetooth device in my car (along with other reasons) so would like in those cases to just use the Tab for all actions.
I know the Tab is not AT&T branded, but wasn't sure if the AT&T Phone Tablet apk has been extracted and possibly installed on another unlocked device.
Have you checked any of the apk sites like apkmirror?
AFAIK there are no phone apps for tablets. The Galaxy Tab S3 I have doesn't have a SIM card but I see the uscellular site has 4GLTE version but my understanding is that is data only, not phone calls. You would have to use any VOIP app like Google Voice, Hangouts, Allo, etc to make "calls" but as a phone and receiving phone calls I don't think the Tab S3 can do what you want unless you are on Project Fi and can use hangouts to receive calls. I know when Project Fi gets a call on my number I can also have hangouts ring on my tablet. But I think that is Project Fi specific. I'm not aware of any ATT app that can provide that functionality.
Thanks @aspexil I was looking for something similar to what the AT&T branded Tab S has. There's a phone app that when clicked launches their NumberSync configuration so calls from your phone can be routed to the tablet if needed. I'll check apkmirror and see if anything comes up!
@alfredtv if you still have the Tab S you could get the apk from there? There are plenty of tools and sites that describe how to do that even on a non-rooted device. Good luck it sounds like a neat app.
