Anybody know if there's a limitation on cancelling a line and re-adding it? I was already about to cancel one of mine anyway (giving Project Fi a trial run). If I cancel it today, will adding a another one before the 8/31 deadline still qualify? Just checking here before I... *gulp*.. call them...

Don't wait. Replace it ASAP. It's pretty much confirmed to be a hardware issue. The quicker you get it on the books and replaced, the better.

Add me to the list. I had the exact same, mysterious Bluetooth performance drop off on my original Note 5 about a month ago. AT&T handled the warranty replacement, and it worked perfectly... until yesterday. Last night, I noticed my Hint couldn't seem to auto-connect to the phone, and my Urbane...

This is my experience exactly. I've blamed everything from a WiFi conflict to Android Wear to a software update. I initiated a warranty return today, but I'm still curious as to what could cause this sudden drop-off?

You can have multiple Wear devices paired and connected to a single phone. You just can't have a single Wear device paired to multiple phones. If you switch phones, you have to wipe the watch and start over.

Mine is going back, and I feel similarly as to why. It has some nice stuff going, but most of it is just "different" as opposed to "better". It just doesn't do enough to make me change ecosystems or reinvest into Samsung's. It's definitely not a Wear killer, and for $300 - $350, it needs to be...

Ok I'll eat some crow here. Add me to this list. After 2 days, there are 3 things that are screaming "return" at me, and S voice is one of them. I tried to give it the benefit of the doubt, but I went back to the Huawei Watch for a dinner I attended last night, and it just solidified how much...

Yeah... I'm kind of with you with the calls. I was really banking on the call functionality and NFC bringing enough new features to justify another $300 watch, but so far I'm not quite seeing it. Don't get me wrong... It's a solid device. It's just that the new/different stuff I've seen so far...

What app do you use for SMS? I'm pretty sure what you're looking for only applies if you're using the TouchWiz messaging app on a Galaxy device. That said, the S2 seems to work well with Hangouts. You can read, quick reply and initiate SMS just fine through the watch Sent from my...

It's workable and not completely useless, but it pretty much makes Wear w/ Google Now look like JARVIS. It's slow, has limited functionality and just seems disconnected from Android as a whole. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using Tapatalk

You can. The whole thing actually if you're using the Gmail app. I use the Inbox app, and unfortunately, you only get the first few lines and the option to mark the email read. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using Tapatalk

Not sure if this is related to my Hangouts setup ( I use Google Voice and Hangouts as my default SMS app), but it does appear that Tizen can interact with those notifications just fine. I've sent several "Quick Replies" from the watch in response to SMS messages I've received. I'm not sure if...

We probably need to clarify what we mean by "compatible". No you can't run Android Wear apps on this watch, but it seems like some of the native Google apps interact just fine. I think what will really drive this is how dynamic the notifications are. Tizen seems to be able to handle at least...

If this is truly the case, it's just flat out asinine.

First, I'll have to admit to be an Android Wear diehard... by which I mean I've had several of the watches... not that I think it's perfect. That said, the Tizen experience so far for me has been a little jarring and disorienting. The rotating bezel navigation is cool, but for some reason, I was...
