Hi,
I own LG smartwatch without sim card paired to iPhone 6S.
When the phone rings, the watch doesn't show the call notification, if I reject\not answer the call, missed call notification is sent to the watch.
Has anyone with the same configuration gets call notification to the watch?
Thanks.

After having a few issues with my Gear S I thought I would share some tips in case others have an issue. Please add your own tips to help others.
Set up email on phone (S4) but Gear S does not vibrate on email, but does pop up. Other notifications vibrate ok.
Turns out that if you set the notification on the phone to none (in samsung native email client) the Gear S will not vibrate. Even if phone is silent and you have chosen a melody the Gear S will then vibrate.
If you have a BT headset connected to the Gear S it will only work when the phone is connected remotely not by BT.
If the Gear S is connected by BT and you answer on the Gear S the audio will route through the Gear S and you cannot use the BT headset. If you answer on the phone the audio will route through the phone.
Two Possible work arounds
1. Buy a multipoint headset and connect to phone and Gear S (I havent tested this but should have a new headset arrive today so will update)
2. Permanently forward calls to the Gear S phone number but does mean you have to have the GSM from auto on and off to always on. (So far no noticeable battery drain from this)
Hope this helps out a few others.
Thanks

Thanks you for the notification tip.
Regarding the BT headset case, there is also a scenario where the BT headset is connected only to mobile device and the the device is connected by BT to Gear. Then if you opt to reply or initiate a call from your Gear, you just tap the small icon on the bottom left corner and you keep on using the BT headset although you originated or answered the call from Gear.

How do you do this scenario. Every time I try to answer a call thru the watch the audio goes thru the watch and not the bluetooth headset. LG tone pro 750 is multi point

I use a "single" point BT Sony BT headset (MBH20)
I have paired it only to the mobile device (Samsung Note 3 Neo)
The mobile device is paired to the Gear S through BT 90% of my day
When I either answer or initiate a call using the Gear S (through the Note 3 Neo SIM), I get a small icon, at the lower left screen of Gear S, depicting a headset.
If and when I press this icon, the voice which you correctly state that "...goes thru the watch..." is transfered to the BT Headset. So I do not have either to reach for the mobile device or to go on with the "audio which goes thru the watch".
I have not tried to use a multipoint BT headset. I will do it later and tell you how it behaves.
The only, very annoying, situation that I have not managed to sort out with this watch, is how to terminate a call either initiated or answered through the watch. The initially available phone screen, making available the green (CALL) and red (END CALL) icons, disappears a few seconds after I initiate (or answer) the call through the watch! There is no watch gesture to make it again available. I need to reach for the mobile device to terminate the call. Any tips on that?
I have the gear s watch, s5 and the lg tone pro 750. I cannot answer my incoming calls thru my headset if I use the watch to accept the call. Any help would be appreciated.

I had the same issue. I bought a different headset (Motorola Hint), and now the watch answers by simply saying "answer".

Sounds like a compatibility problem you had. The headset works with both devices fine. Other then when I try to answer a phone call. The audio goes to the watch instead of my headset when I accept using the watch. If I accept the call on the phone it goes to the headset

Same here, I have a motorola whisper headset. While it is paired to the phone......if I answer via the gear.....the call will not go thru the headset.
So what I do when someone calls is look at the gear and see who it is and if it is someone i need to talk to I answer it via the heastset and not the gear and the call goes thru the headset.
Hello!
My Samsung Galaxy Note 5 it's my life
Since yesterday, I noticed that the voice messages in the messenger (facebook) app, the sound was in the cellphone's speakers while the headphones were connected. But with the Music app and the Whatsapp voice messages, the sound was in the headphones. Also, the icon of headphones in the notification bar appears no more.
I need help, I really love my phone and I want it to be perfect :crying:
