Can I use my Samsung Gear S to make calls if it is out of range (bluetooth) of my Note 4?

[Leebc]

I have a separate SIM card (different number) in my Gear S. It is linked via the Service Provider to the SIM in my Note 4.

If I'm in range of my Note 4 I can make and answer calls on my Gear S. As soon as I move out of the Bluetooth range or I leave my phone at home and go out, I am unable to make calls on my Gear S.
Should I be able to make calls? or is this not possible?


Leebc.

You should be able to make and receive calls. Make sure your mobile setting is set to auto switch. Once out of Bluetooth range a message will appear saying mobile will be turned on in one minute

Thanks. Where do I find the auto switch setting?

Go settings, connections, mobile network then choose auto switch
