Galaxy Watch Outbound Number
When away from my phone and calling out on my watch, the number the person I call sees is not my cell number but the watch line number. I am told by TMobile that the outbound calls will always use the watch line number. This seems ridiculous as now people will have two numbers for me. Has anyone encountered the same issue? Is there a work around?
Digital Touch Tone vs. Touch Tone
Technology can improve our daily lives and can also complicate them. Going forward at times, can result in going backwards. "If it isn't broke, leave it alone". Touch tone Old technology has a preprogrammed "tone" established, allowing a connection to be heard and passed through with correct information. Newer technology uses thousands of tones associated with 0-9 computer screen connections. " if you would like to receive this call pres 1", by pressing 1, this tone must connect with the exact receiving tone as the outgoing tone. If the tones do not exactly match, you mayfind yourself pressing "Beethoven" vs "Motzart". Your call will not connect if your note does not match the receiving note. How do companies address this issue? After several agents pass the buck, hang up on you and you finally manage an agent without preprogrammed bot mentality, you will discover a claim to their technicians will be processed for further review. Usually a 3 day or week process. Akind agent will brief you upon this expected length, though technically this is a breech in policy, some agents are actually still bread with human decency. A history of incomming lines will be viewed for their tone matching capabilities to rule out whose playing b flat. Once identified a tune up follows. However as with all instruments,those musicians know nothing ever stays perfectly in tune. Going forward can at times mean, your really better off sometimes with one octave than with multiple octaves, as there are less variables of your touch tone being unable to play the exact reciprocating frequencies needed to simply....connect calls. Life is a balance of machine and mankind. Machines are only as good as they are programmed. A good company will never put policy over their paying customers. A company is only as good as its character, not of its policies. Policies are fluid rules needing to bend with the tide of current needs. A company unwilling to address their outdated or unacceptable policies, will find their "product" will never support their character. But quality of Character will always support a product.
Apple watch roaming in India
I have an Apple Watch SE first generation, setup as standalone line, via family setup on T mobile Magneta X plan. Our phones have switched successfullyto local roaming partner (Vi India), however I'm unable to get Apple Watch to get to work, either phone, text or data. The Watch is on WatchOS 9.1 and has data roaming enabled. Cellular options shows Status as No connection. Multiplechat sessions with t-mobile rep has not yielded no results yet. They tried adding international data pass, enabling DIGITS, disabling it and putting line back to standalone line so far. I can see at least 1 bar of signal strength on Watch using explorer Watch face (phones show 3).
