    Battery Life Suddenly Gone

    On Monday morning I noticed the same problem. During the day the battery is discharging normally. Over night is when I am noticing a 70% drop. I'm turning it off tonight so as to not further run down the battery until a fix is identified. I typically have DND on at night. Gear S3 classic.

    Verizon security patch update

    I have mine off because my phone switches between extenders and thus get weaker signals at times. Results in dropped calls or bad quality. Maybe I'm doing something wrong too, lol

    What happened to Gear S3 and connection with Note 8

    I have the N8 and I am not experiencing the same issues. I know it may be a stupid question but do you have bluetooth toggled on and did you toggle your phone app notifications you want pushed to your watch within the Samsung gear app on your phone? Go settings> notifications> toggle on and >...

    Voice Input Unavailable

    I have this same problem in 2.3. Updates have nothing to do with it. Works whenever it feels like it. Hopefully fixed in 3.0.

    Firmware Update Gear S3

    The watchmaker developers issued a notice last week that they have their app under review by Samsung for approval of inclusion of their companion app into the Samsung store. They seemed to think that it would not take much more time to resolve various issues and get approval.

    S3 sent in to Samsung repair center
