Hi,
According to Samsung (I called support) there is an auto sleep finction, where the Gear Fit will detect when i go to sleep and start monitoring my sleep without having to press the button to activate sleep mode.
According to Samsung support you press "Sleep" then scroll to the bottom and after blocking mode there should be an option to enable "Auto Sleep" but this option is not there.
They advised me to return my gear fit to the shop, which i did, i have repaired this with my phone and the option is still not there.
Can someone please tell me how to enable this feature, because this is a very irritating thing constantly having to tell the Gear Fit that im going to bed, and when I wake up!!!
Please can someone help me out!!
Many thanks.

I have called Samsung, they have recognized the issue and they are getting the developers to work on the problem.
The more people that call reporting the problem the faster the developers will work on it

Awesome work mate, please make sure that you reference the link i posted because it is actually a guy from Samsung who wrote it!!!!
Please let me know how you go
The oddest thing. For the last week or so I've noticed this behavior. If I forget to put my Fit in sleep mode and roll over to go to sleep as soon as I put my hand under the pillow it vibrates. Although I don't see any message it things 2nd to put it in sleep. Anyone else experience this?

I returned my gear fit, it is the biggest waste of time, i was running it at the same time at a sony fitband SW10, and the sont is WAY WAY better than the samsung.
only thing it doesnt do it the heart rate..but it is so much better for everthing else, even the softwaare is 2000% better....
My advice to anyone with a gear or giear fit, get rid of that rubbish and get a proper fit band!!
SONY SW10 all the way!!!
(Also half the price!)
I am to late maybe...
but
is anyone here ?
I am using gear fit more than 18 months.
I now see that feature but as u said in ur message there is nothing on sleep menu like that.
do u have a soluion to this?
and how?
I have that issues too.... and it is a year after the original post, I will return this gearfit.
I just bought the Samsung gear fit 2 on July 6 specifically for the sleep feature and am returning it today. The sleep recording is way off. Brought it back to Best Buy and they said to try another app that would not find the gear 2. I used my daughter's Samsung gear fit 1 and it worked perfectly. It usually started recording 1 to 2 hrs late and once it started 6 hrs late. I have a slow pulse rate...not sure if that has anything to do with it. It is paired to a LG Android... The mileage tracker is not accurate either and once I am sweating from walking in the heat the heart beats per minute goes very high.
Walked into Rogers Corp store in Montreal today and bought outright. No pre-order.
I've set my device up. Took an update on first install (prob same at T-Mobile update)?
I've gotten Rogers Wi-Fi calling to work (though I have an annoying persistent Wi-Fi calling notification in Status Bar that I can't seem to eliminate even though I've silenced that notification).
Feel free to ask questions specific to Rogers here.

That's the cost of high-end phones these days (you pay it upfront or even more over time!). Jury is out, too soon to tell yet. I am coming from S7 Edge which is an awesome device. So far concerned about battery but too soon to call it.

Fair enough. I am currently on the S7 edge. Battery life never bothered me because we all have outlets or battery packs lol.
My gf has the LG G5 which is similar and I like to play with it.

I'm pretty concerned about the battery life as well. Been using my Rogers G6 for about a week and have to say the standby time is absolutely horrid, probably as bad as my G5. Other than the battery life, i have to say that i love this phone!
I think mine's going back. Battery life is < 8 hours with same usage pattern (exactly) as my S7e, which can last 15hrs on just 300mAh more. Something's wrong. I don't have experience with SD821 devices but based on some benchmarks, the Pixel XL looks like it lasts almost as long as the S7e.
It seems that Rogers permits "exchanges" up to 2 weeks - what if I want to take a credit on another device (I don't think it's my individual unit so don't want to bother with another one)?
I packaged it up to return it...Rogers F****Ed me off, too bad....Not our problem. Figured I would sell it, so did a factory reset and then decide to give it one more go. This time I didn't use the Google "move from another device" (don't know actual name) but rather manually reinstalled my apps (painful...). Much better results today (tho no phone calls as it's the weekend). I'm at 8hrs off battery, 2hrs SOT and still above 50% battery. Will see what happens Monday.
Hey everyone, just got that phone for free from rogers (Was 400$ but bring my Samsung Galaxy Alpha and they removed the 400$, can't belive it! Even the clerk was like "what? We do give something for that junk, and that much???"). I have a question though. How do we get the app drawer back? I've checked everywhere and all I see is go into settings, display, home then select home and app drawer. But I don't have that. I only have "Home" and "Easy home".
Thanks
Got a videotron version here...battery life is awesome in my case, standby is great.
Im still at the same charge from yesterday noon with regular use and minor gaming...still at 67%

In home settings you dont have select home ? Then home and app drawer?
Got the phone from Fido, unlocked, now using with Rogers. Only 2 days old but battery life is good so far, approx 50% after a moderate day of use.
For homescreen, I had to download an app from LG called "home + app drawer," before that I only had Home and Easy Home as options.

Does the Rogers G6 have any Rogers branding in the software when it boots up? Considering getting an unlocked Rogers G6 off of Craigslist to use on AT&T.

I would recommend boycotting Huawei. Even if you get it fixed, there is a 100% guarantee that the phone will fail at some point with bootloop issue (usually within 2, years of manufacturing date).

Sorry to hear, I cracked my Nexus 6 and sent it to Moto for warranty and when I got the replacement, wireless charging didn't work. I ended up keeping it and down the road, after cracking the screen I decided I'd try and call Moto & do it again but when I called they said the warranty had just ended and I would have to pay full price for their or another phone. If I could go it again I would have sent it right back. I had three of the Nexus 6's not including the warranty exchange. Nice phone & wish I still had.
**UPDATE** Got my 3rd 6P today, so far so good, fingerprint works, camera works, calling works. When I get home, I will unlock the bootloader, but other than that, I'm not sure if I want to root or not.
OP. I bought a second hand 6p and I am about to swap the battery and do a black body swap. A brand new unopened dbrand came with the phone I got. I’m not gonna use it so if you want it it’s yours just pm me your info. It’s the white marble back setup. I’m not into bumpers so I can throw in the rhino shield too if you want.lmk

There was an article about how they will overtake apple on here. Good luck with that one, they wouldn't stay at the top long with their poor quality control and terrible customer service.
Wow, sorry to hear OP. I keep hearing terrible stories about their customer service.
For at least a week my notification alert sounds off at least a dozen times a day! I check the phone and there is no email or text message.
I've had McAfee Security installed since I bought the phone. Ran a deep scan twice. I checked battery and data usage, nothing out of the ordinary.
Driving me crazy, any ideas? The phone is about a year old.

Thank you! I was able to find the culprit. Under Screen Wakeup History it shows Android System, (date stamp), key input.
This happens whether the phone is on the table or in my pocket. I've had it in the same case (Otter Box) without a screen protector since I bought it. Now if I could find a fix....
New one
Better cameras
Better fast charging
Better screens
Better snapdragon
Is anybody ordered? From where?
Giztop maybe?
I just placed an order at Trading Shenzhen. They're usually a bit cheaper than Giztop and offer Global shipping with no added import duties. I bought the Find N with them and do far I'm satisfied.
Thanks for the tip... Looking now...

I ordered mine through Wonda Mobile. Just received it yesterday. I have google play services installed and everything seems to be working fine so far. I have not tested Android Auto yet, but normally it won't work on CN ROM phones.

Yeah, Android Auto doesn't work. The error message says that it was not pre-installed. It must be bundled with the operating system.
Anyone else getting a message saying “Messages” wants to send a payment request message…….
When using Google messages as default messages app? I’m getting that error every time I mention something involving money like “I got a visa gift card for Christmas”
Anyone know how to turn that off or any work around?
Running latest software

I got the green one. I'm coming from a rooted Xiaomi Mix Fold 2. At first, it got super annoying going back to the CN strict-heavy rom but, it doable in the US
Cons:
- Launchers still don't work without work around.
- Google messages doesn't send messages to non-RCS users if you send a message with hot words that have to do with money.
- Only 5 apps can be locked (running fully in the background, auto startup from boot) at a time.
- Even if notifications are set AND you chose to never revoke access, some apps still won't send notifications unless you mess with the setting again (usually toggle on/off)
-default messaging app doesn't allow group sms (all messages are recieved separately)
Pros:
- super duper compact and perfect in every way (hardware wise)
- 5g is a major go (reason why I sold my first oppo find n)
- everything else not listed above runs super smoothly (in California, on TMobile)
- Pictures are really good and videos too
I have my Xiaomi watch running on it fine, when my notifications don't work on the phone sometimes, it always does on the watch.
Unboxing was crazy, holding the little green hulk felt perfect. Really hope a global rom gets released or someone finds a way to root this phone.

The price for N2 and Mix Fold 2 are more or less the same. Which do you prefer? Really tempted to order one of these two foldables.
