Interesting. Just tried on my Bluetooth S3. The last calibration was 10/22/2018. Tried calibration and it failed with "Network unavailable".

Looks like it might be a common problem -> https://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/gear-s3/set-altitude-network-unavailable-t3895946

Finally solved this with the help of the Samsung support site. Need to clear the cache and data of the Galaxy Wearable app.


1) On your phone, navigate to Settings.
2) Click on Apps
3) Navigate to the Galaxy Wearable app and click on it.
4) Click on storage.
5) Clear the cache and data. Touch CLEAR CACHE, and then touch CLEAR DATA > DELETE. All of the Galaxy Wearable app's data will be deleted permanently. This includes all files, settings, accounts, databases etc.

You will then have to open Bluetooth on your phone and click on the watch to connect it again.

No, that's NOT the solution. Made ZERO difference.

Sorry that it didn't work for you. As I said above, it solved it for me.
I made no claim that it was "the solution" for everyone.

No joy here either. I can get a calibration once in a long while, but next time it's broken again. This is clearly a bug Samsung needs to fix.

Turns out only a temporary solution for me. Now back to the "Network not available"
