    Inconsistent Volume

    Argh - me too! System sounds show up, but there's no music volume or YouTube - any ideas? Posted via the Android Central App

    Remotely disconnected when away from WiFi

    Gear S, Note 4 I have a Sim installed with its own phone number, but the data plan on it is shared with my phone. Away from home my watch becomes disconnected. Why? (I don't want to use Bluetooth as I need my phone connected to my car). Spent a long time searching, sorry if posted elsewhere...
