TIZEN OS on Galaxy Gear - Drawbacks

[Paulo Ruy Barbosa]

The new OS is fine and it's a worth upgrade, but there are two major drawbacks I really don't like.

First, the new standalone music player is almost useless, since it doesn't play the files stored on the telephone, only music files stored on the Galaxy Gear. It was very cool to control the music played on the telephone thru the Gear, including the cover photo displayed.

Second, when I have headphones connected on the telephone, and I have an incoming call, I can't answer it thru the Gear anymore, because the sound is mute on the headphone. Before, I could talk on the Gear and hear the conversation on the headphone.

I hope Samsung fix these issues soon.

Welcome to the forums.
Have you emailed Samsung about this issue?

With the music player. Is there still an option to control music from the device though? I enjoy the media controller feature.

Yes, media controller is still there and at least for me, it's more responsive.
