Gear S and Dual SIM phones - Samsung Gear S

Dear all,
I would like to share with you my experience with Samsung's Dual SIM phones (S5 duos and S7 edge with two sim-slots). Gear S is working quit smoothly however the automatic call divert no. Regardless if someone has both slots occupied or not, the automatic call devirt does not work. Actually, does not even appear on the menu. Neither on phone nor on the watch.

Gear S and DUOS call forwarding
Yes, I can confirm the same „issue“ on Galaxy Note 5 DUOS, it probably has something to do with the fact that every time I put manual call forward request on it is asking for selection which SIM (1 or 2) I wish to forward to the Gear S. Other than that it works like a charm and I really like it.

Gear S and dual sim Samsung phones

How does it work? Anyone tried? Is there any weird thing not working? If a call or message come in both phones will it show in gear or if you make a call from Gear does it take call from default sim?
Any one?
It is a good question. Samsung duos can forward a call from one sim to another when you are in a call. There is no option, as far as I know to forward a call to a Specific number. If that is possible gear s will work without a problem. Example: sim 1 - ongoing call, sim 2 call transfered to gear S. Superb situation. ( I just sold my S5 duos so I cannot try it, but someone will help us with an answer, I hope)

call forwarding from gear to phone

In gear manager or on the gear itself, there is an option you can forward cell phone call in to gear S.
But I wondering if there is a way to forward gear S call to cell phone?

I think it is a one way thing with the phone to gs.....via the software.
Since the gs is pretty much a stand alone watch phone........have you tried to call forward the manual way via the gs keypad, make sure your on the gs carrier so that it will activate. I would also make sure if your gs has the auto cf feature it is turned off when you are out of bt range. I have a att gs and a sprint note2. I don't have the auto cf feature on the gs and gear manager(the selection is missing) I have to activate/deact it manual when in remote via the swipe down menu on the gs.....no big deal.

[Q] Gear S - redirect an incoming call from Gear S on the phone

Hello.
I have a Samsung SmartWatch Gear S and Samsung Galaxy S4 (version 9506). Installed on both devices is the original ROM (including the phone is branded). The devices have two different SIM cards.
Is there any possibility of an incoming call forwarding Gear S on the phone? Eg. In this configuration: someone calls me on the SIM card into the watch, and I'll pick up the phone call. No matter whether the phone pretending BT headset (if at all possible), or on a redirect calls over the GSM operator.
I still have one question, we turn some situations. Currently, how to dial of a watch, I have the opportunity to talk by phone (until then is what I want), but displays the receiving phone SIM card number.
Is it possible to configure Gear S / phone to the receiving display the number you started dialing (ie with a watch)?
Thanks in advance for your help and sorry for my English.

Connecting gear s to galaxy s8

Hi, sorry if this has been answered previous but I can't see it. I've had a gear s before and recently purchased a new one however I'm sure the last one I had I was able to receive notifications on the watch even when my phone was not on me, I don't seem to be able to get this to work on my new one. Also my gear s won't allow me to set up the call forward from mobile feature so I can only receive calls and notifications while Bluetooth is connected. The only thing I can think I've done differently this time around is taken out a SIM on a shared plan rather than the SIM having it's own data allowance. Anyone got any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Galaxy Tab S7 - Root and phone calls

Hi I am evaluating the purchase of a Galaxy Tab 7S but I absolutely need to be able to make / receive phone calls and messages. I read that it is only possible with root permissions but I didn't understand how. Once you have rooted what should I do? Do I have to install any specific app? Thanks a lot
By calls, do you mean voice calling or video calling?
For the former you'll need the Tab S7 5G and your carrier will have to allow it. Not all carriers enable tablets to make voice only calls. This applies to texting. Your carrier must allow it from a tablet; meaning your tablet uses its own number and is not paired to your phone's number. Otherwise, you'll have to use an app like Google Voice. I'm not sure rooting will bypass the carrier.
If you just want to do video calls, then the WiFi only version will work. No rooting needed. Of course you would need a WiFi connection for that to work.
Hi thanks for the reply. I am referring to the use of the tablet at 100% instead of the telephone, therefore receiving and sending calls via the Sim Card with the traditional number. What you say I already knew and unfortunately at the moment the Galaxy Tab factory setting only allows you to call with the Sim only if paired with a Samsung smartphone. In reality, the limitation is not imposed by the telephone operator (except in the USA) but by the customization of Android and it is not clear why there is this trend in tablets. However, I have read that through root you can bypass this limitation but I did not understand how.
I think I have reached the end of my research ... Unfortunately it is impossible because the modem is not GSM compatible and therefore not able to access the voice. Clearly this is a commercial speculative choice to push consumers to have 2 devices instead of just one ... The usual sadness!
Evidently, you can if you had the LTE version of the Tab S7 (which I didn't know existed) and are in Australia.

I can see your point about two devices. I'd rather use one number on two devices than two devices with two numbers.
The tab s7 t-875 model has phone functions, so you can stick your sim card in it and use it as your all in one device. It's available in Europe if that helps?
