    New Phone - watch no longer get notifications for incoming calls

    Hi Jaycemiskel, I'll double check that but I am getting watch notifications for e-mails that the phone receives so I don't think the phone app is blocked. As far as factory resetting it turns out I had to do that for the watch to pair with the new phone. Initially I had nothing but trouble...

    New Phone - watch no longer get notifications for incoming calls

    Hi Jaycemiskel, Thanks so much for all your help! I tried the larger one and it was too big for my wrist so I got the smaller one and it fits quite nicely. I would have liked to be able to talk on a call through the watch but being able to dismiss a call or accept it was good enough. And as...

    New Phone - watch no longer get notifications for incoming calls

    So I turned on my phone and ZW2 and connected them and went into the BT settings for the ZW2 but the only options were to rename the device and unpair. There was no setting to say it was a handset or anything like that. The ZW2 does not have a speaker so it cannot actually support a call. But...

    New Phone - watch no longer get notifications for incoming calls

    Thanks! I'll give it a try although I've been in the phone's BT settings and don't recall those settings, but I'm not that sure. I'll post what I find. Gerry

    New Phone - watch no longer get notifications for incoming calls

    Thanks for the reply, but I'm not familiar with that setting for a Zenwatch 2. Could you point me in the right direction to check that setting? Thanks, Gerry

    New Phone - watch no longer get notifications for incoming calls

    HI ALL, I haven't been to this forum for quite a while but since I bought a new phone I'm having some problems. First the new phone would not pair with the ZW2 and it couldn't even find it. Long story short it seems you have to go into the ZW2's settings and use "Unpair with phone and reset."...

    The two sizes - Anyone try them both? Which are you preferring? Thoughts?

    I'm not 100% sure but I think none of the Zen Watch models have a speaker, so even if the updated Android Wear app supports making calls I don't think the ZWs will be able to do that. Gerry

    Watch doesn't stay off when I connect pogo charger, why?

    Re: Watch doesn't stay off when I connect pogo charger Hi, That's the way it works. However even if the ZW2 is almost to 0 charge it will get to 100% in an hour or two - it charges very fast. So when you get home and if you don't need the watch start to charge it right away and by the time...

    Zenwatch contact problem

    Yes! I would also like to know how to get contacts to show up on the ZW. I have plenty of contacts in the "Contacts" app on the phone but none of them show up in the contacts on the watch. All the watch ever says is "No contacts . . . " Gerry

    Help with the 45mm from BestBuy

    Hi maher79, The band that comes with the ZW2 that I got (the 45 mm ZW2, Silver/Khaki Leather) was a rather standard band that is neutral in color - khaki. I thought it was not gender specific and could be worn by either a gal or a guy. I also had the same thoughts that the ZW2 was aimed at...

    Help with the 45mm from BestBuy

    Hi maher79, I originally bought the ZW1 from Amazon and it only came in the larger size and I'm a guy but have quite small wrists and it looked and felt HUGE and was uncomfortable to wear. Then the ZW2 came out in the two sizes and I ordered the smaller one from BB and I actually got it a day...

    Silly question - manual setting of time

    Hi Damn_Smooth, That's an interesting idea!! Could you point me to some watch faces with dual time zones as I don't think they are in the standard set of faces. Thanks, Gerry

    Silly question - manual setting of time

    Thanks for the suggestion. I don't really travel that much, maybe twice a year, so its no big deal but I would have thought there would have been a setting to manually change the time and/or date. Do you know that if you're in Airplane Mode in either the ZW2 or an Android phone does that shut...

    Silly question - manual setting of time

    Hi ALL, Here's a silly question! Is it possible to manually set the time and date? I realize the prime use of any Android Wear watch is to pair up with a phone and then it gets its time setting from the phone. But what if for some reason the phone is off and you need to change the watch's...

    Anyone pick one of these up?

    I bought the smaller ZW2 from BB as soon as it came out and it fits my small wrist quite nicely. The band is only ok but I needed an expansion metal band and got the one shown below for $8 at Walmart and it fits and looks quite nice. The ZW2 uses standard watch band spring pins to attach the...
