    Email notification broke with new Gear phone app

    After updating the Gear app on my S7 phone I now get "Can't show email for security reasons. View it on your phone..." on the Gear S2 watch when I get an Email notification. Before the update I would get the subject and the beginning of the email. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks, -Greg

    Syncing contacts from Note 5 to Gear S2

    I don't think you can. From what I have seen it always syncs all contacts from you phone. What about adding a 2nd number to your top ten, like mobile2. Then you use S Voice and say, "Call Bob on mobile2." Then it dials the mobile2 number you have in your contacts for Bob.

    S Voice Won't Text or Call Contacts

    So I did a factory reset on the watch and is back up and running as it was, but now when I say to S Voice, "Call Polen", it complains it's not in my contacts instead of "Contacts syncing..." Tonight I'm going to try the Wi-Fi trick again and see if it now works after the reset.

    I have also heard that it will last longer after a couple of battery drains and charge.
