Hi,
Has someone been abled to use a wear os smartwatch with the phone?
I tried to pair an oppo smartwatch (wear os 2) and the wear os app stays blocked on the launch screen, so I'm unable to pair it.
I also tried with a samsung watch 4 (wear os 3) and the galaxy wearable app launches but when trying to pair, I receive an error mesage saying the watch is not compatible with the phone...
So, for now, no smartwatch for me working with the phone.
If someone has been able to make things work, let me know.
Have a nice day.

Garmin Fenix 6 works a treat so assume the rest of Garmin is ok
Samsung Watch 4 Classic - There is a workaround that i found (can't remember where!) where you install Wear OS first and pair the watch through that then install Samsung Wear etc. (do some googleling ) --- However i still had issues with disconnects and notifications so not perfect
Same kind of answer, Garmin forerunner 945 is working smoothly here.
Galaxy Watch works flawlessly with notifications
I had the same issue with a LG Watch R: downloading Wear OS from the "normal" Playstore, when opening Wear OS I've got a stuck white screen. But I managed to fix it:
- Download Wear OS from OPPO App store (let's call it Chinese Wear OS) and install it but don't run it.
- Download Wear OS from Playstore (let's call it Internation Wear OS) and install it and run it.
After this, I was able to start Wear OS and pair my phone with my watch.
Don't forget to allow both Wear OS (chinese and international) to run on background and pin the international version only.
Never open the "Chinese" Wear OS; it will unpair your watch and you will need to uninstall everything and start all over again.
Also, allow all notifications.
Thanks for your answers.
Well, I'm not going to buy a new watch...
For the Samsung watch, as I'm not able to launch and use the wear os app, I guess the trick will not work.
For now, I've switched to a Fitbit which seems to work.

You just have to reintialize the watch and pair it with galaxy wear and the galaxy wear module for notification. You can restore via samsung cloud via internet and the watch is ok. I have The first galaxy Watch with 4G. I am on tizen and i see your problem is wear os related isn't it?

Heya,
A question for people here, I have an Oppo Watch connected to my Oppo Find N - I managed to get it working using the chinese version of WearOS along with the normal version.
Everything is working fine but my Google Pay on the watch constantly crashes or is in a setup loop on the watch, anyone else have this problem? If so any workaround to fix it? (FYI Google Pay working fine on the Find N)
Thanks, it worked
My Amazfit gts 2 is also working fine.
With Huawei and Harmony OS nö Problems too.
Found a solution for anyone that is using Samsung's Galaxy 4 Wear OS watches. You have to install the following apps from Playstore less No.4:
1. Samsung Gear (Samsung wearable)
2. Samsung Watch4 plugin
3. Samsung Health (SHealth)
4. Chinese version Wear OS (From appmarket)
Once the above are installed. Reset or reinitialize your watch, wait for the "Welcome" intro to start. Open up SHealth app -> click on 3 dot on the top right -> settings -> accessories -> Select Galaxy Watch4 or Watch4 Classic to pair up. Follow the setup accordingly. It's optional to sign in to SHealth for your watch btw. Everything will work flawlessly after that.
After you're done with the setup, close all apps via recent and you can launch Samsung Gear as per normal. If you're experiencing intermittent disconnectivity, launch Samsung Gear and lock the app in recents. Do not kill the app. I have not experienced any battery drain from it so far.
DO NOT uninstall the chinese version of the Wear OS under any circumstances. It will disconnect your watch and you won't be able to pair it back. Which means you have to unpair via SHealth, reset your watch and go through the entire setup again.
Hope this helps someone.

You could try to pair the smartwatch using the chinese version of wear os. It will tell you to download the international version or open it directly (if already installed) - worked for me.

There is a procedure call side-load (you can google it if you wish) but personally I don't recommend it. Apps published on Samsung Gear Apps pass a certification process just to avoid malware and incompatibilities with the Gear S device.
If you side-load apps from wherever you can take risk!
Hi, I use the Gear Fit with a Huawei Android mobile. Pairing works fine. Unfortunately the notifications don't appear on the Gear. I turned WhatsApp, SMS, Calendar and phone calls on in the Samsung Gear mobile app, but the only thing that works is showing an incoming phone call...
Any experiences or suggestions?
thx
Try installing Android Wear onto your phone. I've heard it somehow interacts with the phone to send notifications to Tizen devices. S2 and Fit 2. You don't need to open it, just install it.
Did that and it worked... though now the Gear App crashes when I try to open it. but for now I'm happy getting notifications and there are no apps to download anyway...
thx for your suggestion! ?

Glad that worked, but Gear App should not be crashing. You may want to try and reinstall it if you have not. There are a lot of new faces in the Gear store now as well.
Unfortunately it still crashes after clicking the icon. Connection is working though. I uninstalled both Android Wear and the Gear app, cleared cache in the settings but didn't help.
I have a Huawei Mate S...

Okay, it could be the phone then. The app doesn't crash on a native Samsung phone from my experience.
if I turn off Bluetooth and disconnect, the app works fine. As soon as I turn it on it crashes so I never get to install apps and watch faces.
maybe it has something to do with my recent Marshmallow update that came in the middle of playing around with the Fit2...
Ever since I got the most software update earlier July 2017 on my Zenwatch 2, my Zenwatch 2's battery is horrible, it barely last 10 hours with a little usage with brightness set to lowest. I did factory reset hope to fix the issue, after I did factory reset I was trying to download my watch face back to my watch, I noticed it is not showing up at all so I try download any other watch faces and none of it are showing on the Android Wear app. Currently I am stuck using only stock watch faces. Anyone else having similar issue?
You have to add the custom watch faces in face designer on the watch. Swipe left and tap add more watch faces at the right hand end of the list of watch faces. You need to also have the custom watch face app or apps installed on both your phone and watch.
You will need to go into your play store on the watch and add the custom face apps to the watch. You should see any app that is on your phone and which has a complimentary watch app in the list at the bottom of the scroll called apps on your phone.

I did do that, before the new update any watch faces I download show up in the Android Wear app, right now none of the custom watch faces I download are showing in Android Wear.
They won't. It works a bit different now. You have to use the app that comes with each one to manage them and then add them to your watch as I detailed.

I noticed only the watch faces I download directly from the Watch's Play store showed up on my watch and my Android Wear app, but any watch faces I download from Play store on my phone is not showing up on neither my watch or Android Wear, so base on what I found out is that if any of my previous purchase of watch faces didn't found on the app store on my watch that basically mean it is not supported in the latest version of Android Wear.
That could bead well. Just like anything the app developer has to update his or her app to work with aw 2.0

You must go on the "PlayStore" app on YOUR watch and look at the section "app from phone" to install faces/apps wich is yet on your phone. With Wear 2, phone faces/apps are not automatically installed on the watch. Users must install all or only the one they want.

If that the case then I will say I HATE this update, it used to be so easier if I want to download watch face on my watch I can download on my phone Play Store then it will automatically add to my watch. Also I quite sure new update rendered my Zenwatch's battery unusable, my battery drop 100% to 5% within 10 hours, I used to get to able through almost 2 full days without charging it.
Have you performed a factory reset on the watch?

Yes, twin already. Didn't helped for now I am force to turned off ambient mode and set brightness to lowest just get watch with usable battery life again though still no luck getting back the watch face "LED Time" I purchased download to my watch. I am currently addressing this issue to the developer who made that face watch so hopefully that issue can be fixed from the developer who design the watch face. I am extremely irritated with new update that screw up my watch. By the way trying find watch face on my watch by typing in name with small tiny screen was fun! (sarcasm). I wish someone would make those developers who released the latest Android Wear update to type on their Smartwatch with their life depend on it.
Turn off automatic wifi as that uses lots of power and likely you did not have that turned on with 1.5
My battery life was pretty bad for a few days after the update, but once I let it run down completely and die, then charge to 100% it was back to normal.

I hope that is the case, I charge my watch to 100% took it off the charger around 1pm by 11pm my battery life down to 5%. Since I turn ambient mode off battery seen to getting better even though I previously had ambient turn on the entire time before the update and my watch managed to last almost 2 full days.

Actually I did have my wifi turn on as well as ambient turn on before 2.0 update. that was my setting and it lasts me almost 2 days. I don't use my watch to make call or send text message, I mainly use it just to check a few notification though out the day and obviously to tell time so I don't have heavy usage on it.
The latest update to the Android Wear app on your phone.should allow watch face modding and changes once again from the app.
Just noticed my watch is downloading a system update, ut has paused as battery is too low, I am already on the December Patch, is this just a security patch or something else?
Wear OS 1.0 with the February security patch.
I look on the internet and see it keeps saying the lg watch style having the Wear OS 2.0. I look at my watch and it is the Wear OS 1.0. I see listed above Oytsejam1138 mention Wear OS 1.0 with the February security patch. It is bragged about how 2.0 is so much better, that it is such a leap forward. So anyone knows with the situation is? I see they sell them with 2.0, at least that is what I believe I am reading.
Another question but a change of topic. I have the lg g4 h811 phone and the lg watch style. I can use my phone to add to the grocery list or my other lists but the watch cannot through the Google assistant interface. On my watch I have to open the "Keep" app. and choose the list I want to add something to then hit + and one by one add to the list. That is so slow. I grab my phone and say "Ok Google, add to my XXXXX list" and is asks what I want to add. I say something, the app. asks "what else" and I go on from there until I tell it I am done. The question is, shouldn't my watch be able to do that? On my watch I can say, "note to self". My watch (typed text) asks me what I want inside the note to be. I tell it and it saves it in the "Keep" app. I can see them when I open my "keep" app on my watch or phone.
Change of topic again. (I should really make different posts and not compile all this here). Suddenly my watch has started to something. When I open the "Keep" app. it starts to sink and it never stops until I close it and randomly when I reopen it right back up again it is all synced up. Lots of times it never syncs.
Yeah, I'm also wondering about wear 2.0. Just got this along with a Huawei Watch 2 Classic, and I cannot get the watch to update to wear 2.0, event though it says everywhere it is supposed to have it.
I contacted technical and they said to first go into settings of the watch and do an update. I went into Setting./ system / about then chose update. The next step they said in the software in your phone OS to disconnect your watch. Now the next step really did not make sense because they told me to factory reset my watch. Now uninstall the app from the phone and reinstall the latest version. Now lpair your watch with your phone and let the watch update.
My results were bad. My wach went back to when I first bought it and I had to reinstall everything I had on it again. Waste of time. Since than I see my watch updated to 1.1. I don't understand because no where does my watch tell me I am running 2.0... It says Wear OS by Google 1.1.
But it does have Home App 2.11.0. xxxx Are they trying to say the term Home App is the Wear OS? then what does the term Wear OS by Google mean.
Same here Wear 1.1, no updates to Wear 2.0
What the hell? Why is nobody talking about this? Well, except from us.
Edit: I think I figured it out. Wear OS reset and renamed Android Wear. So Wear OS 1.1 is the update to Android Wear 2.0. No?
I think your right. I looked at the Wear OS app on my phone and it shows that it is Wear OS 2.11.0.XXXXX and on my phone that version number matches the information given by my watch as: Home App 2.11.0.xxxxxx. I think the watch Home App is the same as saying Wear OS. and our Wear OS on the watch is what you said, version 1.1 is the same as Wear OS 2.1.0.XXXX. I think our watches are up to date. The terminology is screwy. The watch titles one way and the phone app title's the same thing a different way.
On the watch: Home app 2.11.0.xxx
On the phone: Wear OS 2.11.0.xxx
On our watch: Wear OS 1.1
Hello,
I knew that this kind of subject have been posted here few times, I've checked each of them and tried to make steps that have been showed in answers on my device. Unfortunately nothing have worked.
I will try to describe the issue with all possible steps that I've made before posting this subject.
1. I've received an Amazfit GTR 47 mm yesterday, I'm using an iPhone 7 (iOS ver. 13) — everything looks fine, no pairing problem via amazfit app, but when I've tried to check the notifications I saw that. I can only see when someone is calling me and if the alarm is on. WhatsApp, Facebook, SMS doesn't work.
2. All the notifications in the app (tried on amazfir and mifit (was using miband 3 before the watch)) and on phone are on — like they were while i used the band (with shown all the notifications on it).
3. I've tried to pair the watch with second phone based on android - of course everything works fine ( made the factory reset etc)
4. I've deleted the watch and app from android phone, again factory reset, installed the app on iPhone, restarted the iPhone, added the watch as a new one - and still nothing.
i dont have any idea what can i do... if You need and it will help i can make a hundred of screenshots with my settings.
Mine is the same. I'm on IOS 13.2 Beta and I no longer get SMS or phone call notifications. It works fine on Android. I am waiting for the next update so I can go back to a stock IOS 13. Hopefully this will fix it though not holding my breath.
FYI I was having SMS notifications issues with my Garmin Vivoactive 3 as well.
Same here! Doesn’t work on iOS 13!
hi,
I have a iphone, 13.2 beta rom and the solution for your problem, that I found is:
- first you must be loged in amazfit app
- then go to Iphone>Bluetooth>Amazfit GTR> Share system notifications
- there you must turn off, and the turn on, the button for share system notifications, to restart the notification protocol
Everytime you close the app amazfit or reboot the system, you must do this procedure.
I don't know if in the next 13.2 iOS public release the behavior will be the same, but this way we can fix this anoying bug.

unpair the watch
uninstall amazfit app and install the app again.
before connecting the watch give all the permissions and then connect.
I've done that, but not have fixed. For me is worst, because i've bougth a Mi 9t 128 G and i have an Amazfit GTR. Some one have any information if Android 10 block this?.
Same here. None of the suggestions worked for me...
