I have both SGS and SGT.
SGS is used as a phone, has a sim in it. Tab does not have a sim and doesnt need one since its used as WiFi only.
My question is can i use Tab as a dialling/speakerphone device via bluetooth ? Curiosity mostly, but i would use the feature if its possible.
I used my Garmin Nuvi 765 as a handsfree device in my car hooked to my old HTC Touch Pro.Can i do something similar with tab being handsfree part ?
I would like to know as well. It would be great to be able to answer calls on the tab via Bluetooth from my phone.

hi
i would like to use my asus transformer as a hand free bluetooth handset
i paired my tablet with my phone, but it always said 'paired, but not connected'
i can use a app to do file transfer between my phone and the TR so i know that the two can work together
i just want to receive my phone call on my transformer..
someone can help me ?
thanks
this has been a common quesiton. from what we've seen, there is an app called syncsms to get your messages. As for taking calls, you probably would need to use google voice and forward your calls to the google voice number...
thanks....
Is anyone aware of a way to use the Nexus 7 as a hands-free device? I use it in my car for music, radio, GPS, etc. I would like to have it talk to my phone (Galaxy Nexus) over Bluetooth and allow me to make phone calls.

An app called Vlingo should be what you're looking for but I have no idea whether it's compatible with the Nexus 7.
Update: Probably won't work. Was updated last at mid-June. Skyvi is probably your best bet but also try out Jeannie. I say Jeannie and NOT Voice Actions plus because voice actions plus hasn't been updated in a while.

Just checked it out, Vlingo is a third-party voice assistant similar to Google Now. It's not really what I'm looking for.. thanks though.
I have the new Note 4 and now I have problems using it in the car with bluetooth.
My previous Note 2 worked perfect, any suggestions?
1. audio streaming from the default app works great, no problem ( I know the Samsung Song now very well)
2. calling is a problem, the connection bluetooth - no bluetootj connection is flipping each 2 a 3 seconds......
Anyone has this as well?
I have a Mitsubihi Outlander PHEV model 2013.

Yesyes,
Your answer to this problem is to flash it to 5.01 if you didn't uograded it yet.
I have an Edge and had 4 months of trouble all over now.
Ordered the 6P last night, who knows when it will arrive. Wanted to see if anyone has paired a Gear S with the device to see how it works, what features don't work, etc. I currently have a Gear S paired with my Galaxy Note Edge.
I would like to know this as well. I have my 6P, and I am thinking about buying the Gear S.
I kind of got it working. Issue: if it's connected via bluetooth to your phone, any incoming calls you answer are through the watch (although incoming calls display on both devices). So, for now, I have bluetooth turned off. Since the watch has its own number, that's the only way to receive/make calls if you're not connected to your phone. I'm trying an SMS forwarding app so that text messages go to the watch as well as the phone, however the text shown on the watch comes from your phone's number, not who originally sent the text. Basically, I have the watch as a stand-alone device. The Gear Manager app doesn't work although you can get it installed on the phone..........just doesn't find the watch. There's a way to get your watch past the screen that says "use the Gear App to connect". On that screen you see an icon of the watch, tap on that about 25 or so times until you see the bluetooth message, afterwards, press and hold that watch icon until the next message appears and you're ready to go.
Question for anybody using any of the other ROMs, will the Gear S work with any of the rooted custom roms?
I got a gear s2 working on my Nexus 6P rooted rom

Were you able to have it working prior to rooting?

I'm on a stock, bootloader locked 6P and have a Gear S2 working perfectly with it. However, there's a caveat. When I first got the watch, it pairs up just fine, but there's an update that you're prompted to take but can't because the phone is encrypted. What you need to do in that case is pair it with a phone that's on the Gear S2 supported list (http://www.samsung.com/global/galaxy/gear-s2/device-compatibility/), in my case a Nexus 6 that's stock and encrypted, take the update, then reset the watch and pair it with the 6P again. If you don't have this update, any time the watch and 6P become disconnected, whether because they're out of range of each other or because you intentionally disconnect them, you have to reset the watch and pair it again. After this update, that's fixed.
It seems odd because both the 6P and Nexus 6 I have are encrypted, but because the Nexus 6 is on the list of compatible devices, it works while the 6P has the connection issue without this update. But simply pairing the watch with any of the phones on the compatibility list above, taking the update, then resetting the watch and pairing it with the 6P again fixes this.
Other than that issue, the Gear S2 works flawlessly? Receives notifications for email, text, calendar reminders, phone calls, etc.?
Would pairing it to my son's Galaxy S4 receive the Gear S2 update?
I tried the workaround in the Gear S forum, and couldn't get it to work. I wonder if Gear Manager needs to be updated for 6.0?
If there isn't a fix soon, I will probably sell my Gear S.
The Gear Manager app was updated for Android 6.0., but appears they only have it working for the Gear S2, not the Gear S.

As far as I'm aware, the gear s is only designed to work with galaxy devices. I had the gear s2 & had nothing but problems with it. The disconnect>reset bug did my head in. Wasn't worth the hassle in the end. Got rid of it to a mate who has a Samsung phone & bought the Sony smartwatch 3 instead. I'm happy, he's happy. Everybody's happy.
Does the Sony Smartwatch 3 have a speaker?
