[Q] Why is my Gear S not able to register on TMobile's network anymore? topic

My wife bought me the international version of the Samsung Gear S (SM-R750W). She said that she researched and from her understanding it should work on the T mobile network. From what I've found though the consensus seemed to be it would not work, or if it did it would be spotty at best depending on the specific towers/area you were in because Tmobile utilizes different network types in different areas.

I decide to give it a shot anyway and went to the T-Mobile store where I signed up for the wearable plan and got a new nano sim card. I was crossing my fingers but as soon as they put the sim card in the watch it came to life. It looked to be working fine but as I left the store I received a text from T-Mobile stating " the SIM for your wearable devices is in an ineligible device. Services to the SIM are locked until it returned to your eligible wearable device".

I pessimistically started thinking well great, there goes that idea. But as I got into my vehicle I shut my phone down and tried to see if the watch can work on its own as a phone when unencumbered from my Note 4 bluetooth/WiFi data connections. It worked perfectly-I started calling my friends and they couldn't believe I was talking on a watch phone. Several I actually felt the call sound quality was better on the watch speaker phone compared to normally speaking on the Note 4. I called customer service but they told me they couldn't see anything and if it was working fine not to worry about it.

For the next eight or 9 hours it worked perfectly and I was using it a lot. I drove around large swaths of town and neither data nor call experienced even the slightest issue - for once I was happy to be wrong.
Eventually, as I am oft to do, I fell asleep. When I awoke this morning the watch was no longer connected to the network. It gave me a message saying it was unable to connect and did I want to scan for additional networks. I selected yes and it was able to find the T-Mobile and ATT networks. T-Mobile was selected and a "registering" notification was displayed. It took awhile but eventually said it was unable to register with the network.

I call T-Mobile and they said pretty much exactly what I expected them to say -that because it was not a T mobile device they could not ensure proper operation. But he said (and he characterized this as "good news", "light at the end of a tunnel" and "viable solution” Seriously said all 3 things.) I could either forget all about the cellular connection and just use this as a companion device OR go and buy a new Gear S from T Mobile if I really wanted that feature.
I’m truly and utterly baffled that he believed his suggestions merited the positive sayings from above. Never in my lifetime has my head been closer to exploding.

After I was finally able to speak again, I explained that it seemed unlikely to be an issue with the watch. If my Gear S was working perfectly yesterday and can still detect Tmobile & ATT networks, then something on your end seems to be preventing registration. He agree to file a ticket with the engineering team and tomorrow I should hear from them hopefully. He also told me to go and try another nano-SIM, gratis, at the Tmobile store. So today I went and as soon as I put the new card in all systems were go. I assumed that I somehow had received a bad card because here again now, data and voice are connected.

This time I didn’t even make it out of the parking lot before it notified me that that it was again unable to register with the network. There is conflicting information regarding the radio frequencies and bands that the different Gear S models have and I didn’t have high hopes. But then it actually did work, WELL, so any ideas as to what is going wrong?

[Q] Screen doesn't stay on anymore topic

When I bought the watch back in November, the screen would stay ON all the time. I know it to be a fact because I used to leave it on a desk without ever touching it (for hours) and it would always display the time (it was like having a desk clock, for when I would rather not wear it to have more comfortable wrists while writing or that sort of things).

Also in the train (I used to travel a lot in that period) I would leave the watch hung on the wall while sleeping (at night) and it would not turn itself off, so I could check the time in case I woke up in the middle of the night, without neededing to reach for the watch.

Recently (it was January) I noticed that it does not work like that anymore. After a very short time, the watch screen goes off. It is still in standby: it goes back on if I touch it or press the button.....but I want it to stay on 'without limits' (in dimmed mode). It was like that before.

Somehow this is the behaviour of the 'keep screen always ON' setting.....but in fact, that setting is already set to 'ON'.

So is there some kind of firmware update that changed this behaviour? I would like the clock to not go off when it is not on my wrist, sometimes I just need to keep track of time AND have my wrists free....and it is not possible anymore.

Everytime I try to flash one I get a red error message : " E:Error executing updater binary in zip '/sdcard/romname.zip' " I tried changing to an other custom recovery, got my phone back to stock but it's still doesn't work. Do some of you know what the problem could be? Thanks!

Urgent Help require: Note 3 “Smart Network Switch" not working anymore. topic

Hi there,

Recently I discovered this issue: the “Smart Network Switch" is not working anymore.

For me this is very important, as here wifi connection is not that great like the Mobile Data network here. Wifi internet sometime downs without any notification but Mobile data network is 100% uptime 24x7. But so far the " Smart Network Switch" helps me great as I’ve to stay online over skype always, if the wifi lost internet then it automatically switch to HSPDA which helps me to stay online always even if I’m unaware the wifi internet is down.

Earlier even if the wifi internet link is ok still sometime it was switching to HSPDA by saying internet is slow, I don’t mind that but recently I was noticing even if the wifi was down for long time it wasn’t switching to HSPDA.
In short the "Smart Network Switch" isn’t working at all at any condition. I doubt it could be due to any recent installed app. But I’m not sure which one could. I checked the all recent installed apps accessibility list and removed Airdriod and CM Security which had full network access. But still that didn’t help.

I’m sure this is due to a software bug not a hardware issue. For more input and clues:
# Since over last six month my phone lost the vibration, the vibration motor is not working, I tested with hardware test. I’m really not happy with this phone. Its not yet completed 1year and couldn’t find any nearest service center. So its still working without the vib feature.
# Recently I’ve upgraded the local WIFI setup with a primary dual band TP-Link router and another wifi router as bridge with same SSID and password, this is to get better wifi coverage. Due to this dual router the wifi coverage is at full bar everywhere and the phone has the same. But I think this is nothing to do with this.

Please advice. Thanks in advance.
