How often does your Gear 2 disconnect?

[genepool99]

Has anyone found a solution? My Gear 2/Note 5 disconnects constantly after the last update. I used to get ~30 ft range now I can't put my phone in my pocket. Is it the phone or the watch?

My Note 4 and Gear 2 Neo randomly disconnect then reconnect frequently. If my phone is in my hand or in my pocket makes no difference. Frustrating, but I don't think it's just the watch. Forgot to grab my ipod the other day when heading out so I connected my Note 4 to my car stereo and it dropped the connection too. I'm thinking this is a Marshmallow problem. Note 7 here I come.

Shut the Note 4 and Gear down. Rebooted the phone and then the watch, hasn't been an issue since. Thanks LowIQ for the tip!

Tried Low IQ's tip from down the page and my issue has been solved. Try it.

Your tip worked for my Note 4 Gear Neo 2 problem. Thank you LowIQ!
