Galaxy Watch LTE duplicate messages
As the title says I am getting duplicate messages to my galaxy watch. When im connected to bluetooth everything works fine, texts sync properly when read on one device. However whenever i disconnect from my phone and switch to LTE i get every text ever all pver again. Literally 1000's. You would think the solution would be to leave lte on all the time? Wrong. When i leave lte on all the time then my watch and phone dont sync! If i read the text on my watch it wont update ththe phone anand vice versa. The point of the watch is to be able for the phone and watch to sync AND to leave your phone behind. Ive read dozens of users experienceing the same problem whats the fix tmoble? Ps this isnt an issue with the apple watch lte
@dupsla y @magenta6238774 , thank you both! I sent a PM your way which should be in your bandeja_de_entrada. I also agree about the latest update which is something I'll include in feedback because I do think @magenta6898941 has a great point.
I have the Galaxy watch lte and digits with t-mobile. I have had the duplicate text issue since i bought it in April 2019. i have read the whole thread and my questions is: do you recommend resetting watch and talking to samsung for set up or to t-mobile. i would really appreciate any help. thank you.
When I was on Verizon, I had this issue and there was a setting within the Samsung gear app. But I can't find it anymore. But I can't imagine that it matters what carrier you have since it is a Samsung profit and app. Has anyone tried contacting Samsung?
Hola,
I just got my Galaxy watch 1 weeks ago.
I am also having the same issue with duplicate texts coming through once my galaxy watch disconnects from Bluetooth & connects to LTE. It is very frustrating. I am happy with my watch other than this issue. Sadly I may need to return the watch if I am unable to fix this issue.
They lied. This was working a long time ago with these settings. It drains the battery.
I've had this problem since the beginning. The problem with leaving LTE on is the battery drains like crazy. I can get two days normally. But the batch messages coming thru is very irritating! I got the update yesterday and now when certain people text me it comes thru as my watch #. I thought this was fixed. Also some texts come thru as hidden sender. I am highly disappointed to say the least. The Frontier never had these problems and I wish I would have kept it.
I bought mine in Feb 2018 and I replaced it twice. Took 3 months to get it
homework right and that was all Digits problems. Seem ok now as long as I
stay connect thru BT. Drop that nd battery life goes to Hell plus all the
dupes come in.
Same here. It seems that TMO has their story straight at least now.
Somewhat. A few months ago talking with 5 different people would give you
like 8 different answers SMH. And the current solution is a work around at
best.
Same here. Someone said it's due to the watch being designed to work as a
stand alone number, not with Digits. Dont know about that. I've had issues
with connectivity and battery life since I've owned it. If I had to do it
again I probably wouldn't. A lot of work for good looks.
February 22 was the last watch update drop date. I dont know if that was 100% their version of a "fix" or if they have something going on the back end too.
Only issue with LTE always on is when I receive and pick up phone call on phone, watch give missed call notification. would rather have that then duplicate texts tho.
I haven't received a T-Mobile update in awhile. We'll see when I get it. Hopefully they ģot this fixed. When is this update supposed to be dropped?
