Hello everyone
I bought Amazfit GTS 2 recently. It's a great smartwatch. One of its options is connecting the watch to the phone through Bluetooth and then I'm able to receive incoming phone calls on the watch, answer them and speak with the watch's microphone. It is a very useful option, however I have found one problem I need help with:
1) When I set the watch to receive incoming phone calls, as mentioned above, then the problem is that when I CALL someone (an OUTGOING phone call) I am NOT able to switch to speakerphone... What happens is that the phone call screen shows that the phone is connected to Bluetooth (GTS 2) and there's no option to switch from that to "speaker"....
Is there any option to keep the incoming calls through the watch option WITHOUT losing the ability to switch to speaker mode on outgoing calls?
Anyone has a solution?
2) Additional little question: I read that the GTS 2 is "5ATM" in water resistance.. now, this specific watch has a speaker and a microphone, so I was wondering- does 5ATM mean I can actually swim with the GTS 2 underwater in a pool? The microphone socket/the microphone itself won't get damaged from the water? Water won't be able to penetrate the watch through the speaker?
Any help with my questions above will be appreciated..
Thanks in advance..

I have the same and this feature only works for incoming calls.
The water resistance reaches 50 meters, there should be no problem in the pool.

I love the feature to mute the phone when the watch is paired, because the vibration gets to me each time, and I don't need the phone ringing.
The issue however, is when I put my watch down for charging every night, then I won't be able to hear any calls or messages.
Is there a way for the phone to unmute when the watch is charging? or not in hand?

I´m waiting for a tasker integration to do this, and autodisable the turn-on-screen-gesture by turning your wrist while I´m sleeping.
I don´t know nothing like this at this moment
Can anyone please explain how to make and receive a call on a watch with a speaker? I tried initiating a call on my ZW2 and it went to the phone. I then tried answering an incoming call on the watch and it also went to the phone. Is there a way to make it go through the watch (only if initiated by the watch)?
Yes, I do have Marshmallow on my ZW2. Yes, this is the model with the speaker.
I sideloaded the update and initially had the same issue, I would scoll to my contacts and then try a call, it would use the speaker on the phone.
To fix it I sweep to the menu on the right (applications), then scrolled down Phone. From the phone application I then placed a call from the contact list that came up. That activated the speaker for me.
On the Zenwatch 2:
-Go to settings then scroll down to "Bluetooth"
-Tap "Play phone audio on watch on"
-Go to settings then scroll down to "Sound"
-Make sure the volumes are high enough on all of them so you can hear
To make a call on the Zenwatch:
-You can either say "Okay Google, call ______" or you can keep swiping left from your watch face until you see a bunch of your contacts
To receive a call on the Zenwatch:
As far as I know, if you answer the call with your phone, it will automatically use the phone's speaker.
If you answer with the watch, it should be using the watch's speaker
Okay, I found it. Thank you, both KevOne and Bladder61.

I've got some questions also. I'm trying to decide between the smaller Zenwatch 2 without the speaker and the larger one. Wondering really how useful the "call from your watch" feature really is.
1) If I've got a bluetooth unit in my car, will the phone automatically switch over from the watch to the in-car system when I turn the ignition?
2) Is the watch speaker loud enough that you could carry on a conversation on the street? I imagine you might have to hold it up to your ear.
I got my s9+ and Gear S3 on the same day earlier this week. I paired them just fine and have been playing with them. I've been very happy so far. The only issue I have is that when I receive a call, it only displays on the watch - not the phone. I can't accept, decline, or end any calls from the phone as long as the watch is connected. How on earth do I change it to have the capabilities on both devices? I'm not Michael Knight and don't want to always be talking into my watch. TIA!
I have an Amazfit Verge international model A1811 running ROM 3.2.3.0.
The watch was working perfectly until yesterday when I realised that I wasn't hearing any notification sounds. I checked the sound & volume settings & nothing was muted. To confirm I had my wife call me & during the call she could hear me but I couldn't hear a single sound from the watch's speaker. The watch has never gotten wet in the circa one month I've owned it.
Apart from this the watch is a perfect replacement for my PACE & is fulfilling the purpose I bought it for ie fitness tracking.
Can any one help me figure out what is wrong with the watch before I try and see if Xiaomi Pakistan will honour the warranty of Xiaomi UAE?

When i calling to someone straight from watch i can heard it as normal call, if someone calling to me and i answering - i can't heard it, in caller phone at this moment is still ringing sound. This is probably update 3.2.3.0 issue/bug. Amazfit reported about it. As i saw Amazfit enough fast fixing problems, when was problem with double tap on screen probably update out very fast about 2 week later. So wait patience before you will do something extreme with yours watch like brining to authorized services Also try restart yours smartphone and see is any problem with Amazfit Watch app, version 2.7.2 after reboot of smartphone force closing, in screen is warning about that. Sometime restarting notifications permission and ect. Need to add it again. I already updated this app to 2.9.0 which you can find in https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/huami...ase/amazfit-watch-2-9-0-android-apk-download/ and all problems with that gone. I am sure it's issue/bug of software, so if you can straight from Amazft Watch app (i using android) report Amazfit about this problem too, coz if will be more report about this problem, Amazfit faster maybe will fix it
if all of your tests are not working, try to factory reset the watch first
Did a hard reset as soon as I noticed the problem.

This is Amazfit update issue/bug. Amazfit must to fix that with future updates
the sound bug was fixed in the latest OTA of the Verge, the cracking/distorted sound
Turned out to be an unrepairable hardware issue with the speaker. Received a replacement today & so far so good.

Probably yours problem was different as mine. I can listen music, to talk when i calling from watch to caller and others sounds is available, just when calling to me and i answering from watch i can't heard caller which still heard ringing sound. That's happen after update.
I already had a problem with my cellphone for a while.
On an incoming call the ringtone started, stopped and continued.
I'm not only annoyed by this fact but in the car the problem is that the carkit picks up and immediately transfers the connection to the phone.
This is pretty much useless behaviour.
A part of the wristband broke off so I had to continue without the Verge for a while.
When there is no connection between watch and phone the ringtone problem is gone too.
An incoming call gives a ringtone without interruption.
From the moment I connect my Verege to the phone again the problem reappears.
Does anybody else have the same problem and how to solve this, is there a setting that needss to be changed?
I'm running on a Samsung S9+ with android Pie (9.0) , is this part of the problem?
Thanks to anybody who can help me out.
