How to Activate Samsung watch LTE
I need to activate a Samsung watch LTE
Just got the problem resolved. The message had been that the network
couldn't be set up from this device... So I took it to a T-Mobile store and
had a great manager who figured it out. We needed a device to activate the
cell network. We popped out the sim from my phone, put it in his Samsung
phone, went through the process, got the network activated, put the sim
back in my phone. Just re-paired it and it's all good. It's crappy that
it wouldn't set up. These should come already set for the network so that
they just need to pair it and customize it. But it's working now. Jay at
my local T-Mobile store was awesome and determined to solve this puzzle!
Seems to be doing exactly what we'd expected!
Ack! That's crazy! Is this a screen from your Samsung Galaxy Watch app? @kronikole o @magenta2848034 , have you seen anything similar? Please forgive my ignorance, but there is literally nothing whatsoever regarding a needed software update to function with LTE anywhere on the internet.
My thought were if this were a nationwide problem, there would be articles, blogs, ... more publicity from such a huge flaw in a device release that has been advertised far and wide as being LTE compatible out of the box.
I reached out to Samsung support and she was pretty confused as well, but said it might be a regional issue. (Really wasn't sure)
All I know is that my good friend and co-worker loves her watch and has had no issues with it at all since purchase on release day. I've also spoken to a couple of reps from T-Mobile and they've not had any calls regarding the issue either. I'm pretty stumped in your case.
