Another big problem with voice call in 1.4 release. In I enable voice call on watch, I can't make voice call with Viber, because sound always goes through watch. Only i can't change to phone loud speaker, but not for ear-speaker. I don't know does other app's like skype has same problem, but I think can.

I'm not sure if it's the same thing but what I find to be frustrating is with the gear 2 I could go back and forth. But with this it's one or the other. If I initiate the call with the watch it disconnects the bluetooth call audio on my phone and then I have to manually reconnect them. but if I do this I can't have the watch answer an incoming call (when I answer using the watch it is picked up on the phone only)'
I guess what I'm saying is that with the gear 2 I can have bluetooth call audio connected to both the watch and the phone at the same time (maybe because watch and phone were both samsung). With this bluetooth audio can connect to only one device at a time..

Hey guys, so I am using my headset to activate Samsung Voice Talk by holding my BT button for 2 sec which works great! The problem is that when I have a missed call, Samsung Voice Talk will keep notifying me even though I've already cleared notification and even viewed the call log! WTF! I have to actually delete missed call so clear the notification! Any advice???
Stop using voice talk

What do I use then? I can't set default to Google Voice Search
I want to say that the bluetooth quality is terrible. I'm using the brand new jabra sports too.

Do you think it is specific to your device (jabra sport) or a problem with the phone. Is it bad enough to change your opinion/review of the epic touch ?

I don't have any problems with hearing people / them hearing me. I use BT530 by Jabra. I'd try Plantronics Savor M1100 before complaining about bluetooth.

I'm going to be doing a lot of testing with these Jabra Sports. I'm actually reviewing them because they were just announced. But I was listening to Pandora on my E4T with WiFi on, and the quality was terrible. I'm going to test them with other devices just to ensure if it is the E4T or the Sports.
I am having the same annoying issue with Samsung Galaxy SII ATT, so it looks like a software glitch...makes using voice dialing etc... ridiculous......I have to delete the missed call from the log to get it to stop announcing it.
lol, after a while you just get used to it. Waiting for fix... patiently...NOT!!!
Same problem.. help?
What is the benefit of accepting a call with the Moto 360?
Lets say my phone is in my pocket book, and a call comes in.
My watch buzzes and lets me know a call is coming in. I accept the call, and then I try to get into my pocketbook, find, my phone and speak before the person on the other end hangs up???

this happened to me, though im always using a bluetooth headset aswell so, everytime I answer the call using the moto360, it pops up in my ears the person who is calling, so pretty awesome. no need to check the phone who's calling

O.K. but wouldn't it be great if the Moto 360 could have answered the call directly. It already has the Mic. It is just missing the speaker I think.
Maybe the next version (Moto 720) will have that!!! lol

God I hope not..we will be back to the Nextel days.
I don't use it when my phone is in my pocket. I look at my wrist to see who it is though and to decline it if I choose. If I happen to have a corded earbuds with mic in, I'll use my watch to answer and I use it in my car as well. For me its a situational feature.
I would love to control the ability to mute and unmute my phone from my watch. I couldn't find any app that would allow me to do it. Has anyone found one?
Simple. ..wear mini launcher

Sorry, I should have been more clear. I want to mute/unmute my phone during a phone call. I generally use a bluetooth headset to take my calls so it would be great if I can mute/unmute the call from my watch instead of getting my phone out.

Why not get a headset with that capability? I can mute/unmute calls with my Plantronics Voyager Pro.
Unfortunately, my BT headsets don't have the mute functionality.
We finally have our watches updated with the long waited 1.4 internal speaker enable firmware.
I was so excited to side-load the update to my watch and seeing the new features activated, but with more usage to the watch/phone (note5) I started getting frustrated.
Phone calls cannot be received (heard or voice out) from phone if bluetooth (Play phone audio on watch) is selected. (unlike my previous iWatch)
2nd flaw is the strange behaviour using Facebook messenger calling when audio is diverted to watch, but this time the calls fail.
I thought i would see if its only me facing this, is it the combination of my phone/ watch misfit? or its the update?
I have already factory reset my watch, to no avail.
Please share your experiences guys.
For me this works super cool, no problem. Speaker is very loud and clear. I use it 50% volume at home, whitch is enough.

When you accept phone call on a phone voice is automatically directed through phone's earpiece. When you accept it on the watch, voice goes through the watch.
You can also switch voice direction during call using button having BT icon within in-call screen. This is how it works for me on Nexus 5x and I find it quite consistent.

Unfortunately answering the call from the screen doesn't activate the ear speaker in my case, but I can activate the loud speaker!

Answering the call from the watch screen will answer on the watch. To me that is as expected. If you want to answer it on the phone use the phone to answer instead of watch.

I guess it's dependent on a device type, Android version it is running and most importantly a dialer app that it is running.
I can imagine devices having custom dialer supplied by a vendor that significantly differs from the standard Android one could yield different results.
Anybody else encountered FB messenger crash?
I'm facing very serious problems while trying to use HWatch to make/answer calls.
1. Without activating "Play phone audio on watch" everything works as before (no way to answer the call without pulling the phone). Somehow expected behaviour.
2. When I activate "Play phone audio on watch", I can answer the call on watch and apparently it thinks the call is going normally. Byt nothing can be heard on either side of the call. On phone the in-call UI is also displayed and no sounds played or recorded.
3. What's even worse, when I conventionally answer the call on my phone, it's somehow answered also on watch, with result being similar to 2 - no voice whatsover on either device - for about 10 seconds. After that the call is hung up on watch and starts to be hearable on phone. This is very annoying.
I admit, I have an old Samsung Galaxy SII running SlimKat 4.4.4 (which should include standard AOSP dialer). Maybe it has an old version of Blutooth or something screwed elsewhere. But for me the new 1.4 functions are now plain unusable.
Edit: Point 3 somehow fixed (or demonstrates randomly). But still: no audio stream between phone and watch.

Well I am somehow facing same issues with my GN 5 with the latest MM, in addition to crashing of FB messenger... Line and other voice calling apps are running fine.
I noticed what could be a bug regarding bluetooth and voice dialing. When the screen is locked and I use voice dial it would always route the call to the speaker phone instead of the Bluetooth. After doing some digging I noticed this happens when I have media unchecked. When I have media check it wouldn't route my calls to the speaker phone. This is very annoying and I don't know what to do to fix it. I don't always want to have media checked because I don't like having notifications playing in my ear all the time.

why do you want it to go threw speaker phone if your using your bluetooth.
wouldn't you want the calls to go threw the bluetooth?
