Does anyone have further insight to any of the updates above?

I received this too... very vague. Anyone?

I just updated and now my numbersync doesn't work. It's as if it turned it off but watch says it's on.
Ughh. .

Same here. Watch updated and now numbersync isn't working and when I try to get a numbersync code, it always fails saying "Numbersync is currently unavailable."

Hi, where do you guys live? Where is this update released? Nothing here in Sweden

yeah

So last night I tried doing a reset on my active 2 watch to see if that would help. The Numbersync option in the watch no longer showed it was on so I tried turning it on but I would get an error message saying "Mobile network unavailable". Tested it out by calling myself and sending myself a text from another phone and nothing was received on the watch. So watch only worked independently using it's own phone number.
Here's the weird thing now... this morning I wake up and started receiving calls and text messages and they started showing up on my watch! So I go into the watch menu for numbersync and it looks as if it's not turned on but somehow it's synced with my phone?
So currently it's working as if it's synced. So now I'm wondering if I should even go thru the menu option to enable numbersync even though it's working as if it's enabled?
Edit: watch receives calls and messages but because it's connected via bluetooth to my phone. Once disconnected from bluetooth the watch just works independently. Still getting same error message of "Mobile network unavailable" everytime I go into the watch menu and try to get a sync code.

No fix that I know of. I did several resets and went thru 2 esim changes all at the AT&T store and nothing worked. The watch has no internet connection after this last update. Phone calls work but no internet. Test it by disconnecting Bluetooth and using it standalone. You should be able to get into the Galaxy Store or update Weather and nothing works because there's no mobile data.
I ended up having to file a warranty claim thru Samsung and my watch is in route right now to Samsung.

I have also experienced extremely long wait times for support, and usually just hang up now. I was told AT&T was aware of the problem and say it has to do with an update from Samsung and a new update from Samsung will be needed to solve the problem. I hope we can learn more!

Update:
So apparently my watch is in route back to me. Samsung repair ticket indicates the solution was "REPLACED PBA".
I don't know what PBA stands for. However, I could have sworn it was due to the recent software update since a lot of other people are having the same issue.

I received a call today and learned that AT&T was working on some "profile problems" in their NumberSync program that many are experiencing (such as those in this thread). The person called to verify my login name. Before the call, I did update the Galaxy Wear App (that I was told earlier should solve the problem), but that made no difference. I was also told that I would receive a return call in 24 to 48 hours when they had fixed the problem and they would help me connect to NumberSync. I am glad they escalated my ticket a few days ago; hopefully that means I am in the queue of known people with problems to have the problem fixed (if that is the problem and there is a fix). There must be hundreds or thousands with the same problem for them to give some attention to it????

“PBA” stands for Product Board Assembly.
I’m having the same problem as you. The watch works fine when paired with my phone, but in standalone mode I can’t get any mobile data, and I can’t activate Numbersync.
Do you know if your watch overheated when downloading the update? While the update file was downloading to my watch, it overheated and shut itself off because the file was so large. After I restarted the watch, the update completed and everything was working except mobile data. I’m wondering if this has something to do with it.
Please let us know if everything works after replacing the PBA. I may need to send my watch in to Samsung for a replacement as well.

I can't remember exactly if it overheated or not. I know it did reboot but don't remember if I myself turned it back on or if it rebooted by itself after the update...
I"ll come back and update once I get my watch back and can confirm.

Thanks! Also, what kind of phone are you using? I am using my Galaxy Watch Active 2 paired with an iPhone 11 Pro Max, or setup independently in standalone mode. You can set the Watch Active 2 up in standalone mode by scrolling down on the watch’s initial setup screen and pressing the “?”. Either way, I am unable to receive mobile data after the update.
The reason I ask about the type of phone you have is when I called AT&T support, they said it was impossible to receive mobile data if the Watch Active 2 is paired with an iPhone or setup in standalone mode, but this doesn’t make sense because it was working fine for me before. I’m wondering if the update disables mobile data unless the Watch is paired to an Android phone.

I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 8 and both my watch and Note 8 were purchased directly with AT&T and have had continued service since day 1.
That doesn't make sense at all actually because if it's an LTE watch and it has it's own line, it's supposed to have all the functions available - and that includes phone calls, texts, and internet (data).

Last Friday I called AT&T about my NumberSync issues after my Active2 watch update. They said they'd call back when they researched it. I received a call this afternoon from AT&T about profile issues due to the new watch software and now my NumberSync issue is resolved. I was able to get my Sync Code and sync up my Galaxy s20 Ultra without any problems. A minute or so after syncing, I received tons of text messages that were sent to my phone from last week before the watch update.

Congratulations and thanks for this helpful information! I have yet to receive a call to finally resolve the issue, and I just tried to get a code and still get the same error message. Perhaps tomorrow I will be fortunate to receive a call too. I will let everyone know. I will also be curious to know if those who sent their watches in for warranty work will have a seamless syncing with their new or refurbished watches. At least I now know where the problem lies and that AT&T has found a solution at least for some! Thanks again! BTW: I was thinking of upgrading to the s20, but did not want to do so if this problem continued..

guys can u tell me in R825U unlocked which csc u used ...as iam on R825F (XSA) and want to shift to USA..unlocked
And do anyone has the latest firmware that can be used to after changing the CSC region.

As of today, August 7, no one has called me back to resolve this issue and numbersync still does not work for me. When trying to call or chat with ATT Support, I am told they have a high call volume. So, I have been promised by tech support that they have a solution and that I would be called within 48 hours and still no call. After trying several times, it appears they have to fix the problem and call you to fix the problem, because I still cannot get a code. I hope we can hear some good news from someone that we can finally get a code without needing a tech support call. I suppose we will get no tech support calls over the weekend.

Numbersync after MM update

Anyone getting issues with setting up numbersync following the update? I keep getting a backend error.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using Tapatalk
I work for ATT (and use a Note 5 ATT variant with number sync to an Gear s2). We have noticed some issues getting number sync functioning on our phone after the MM update. Some things to check to help ( I did get mine working after a few headaches):
- Does your phone line have the cloud message backup and sync feature on it? (It's required for number sync to work)
- Are you using a unique MyAtt account, the way number sync works, it requires a separate MyATT account using a separate primary phone number for each device trying to setup number sync.
- Are both the watch and the phone fully updated (both firmware and gear manager need to be on the latest version)
If all else fails, factory reset the watch and then attempt to connect number sync again. If that fails its gonna end up being a factory reset on the phone, but only use that as a last resort.
Unfortunately customer care is very undereducated on the numbersync feature. If your in an area that has a device support center you may catch an employee that knows their stuff - but even that's rare. Feel free to PM me if there's anything else I can to to help out.

Chat Features in Messages

Anyone else have the issue with enabling chat features in Messages? I'm not sure if it is a carrier issue or an issue with Messages or the device? I've tried contacting my carrier and getting them to reset my RCS profile, but apparently they are having "issues" with doing this. I have read that others have had this issue and replacing the sim card has fixed it. I tried doing that yesterday to no avail. I get the attached message and then nothing ever happens. I've tried clearing cache and data for Messages, trying again, rebooting, etc. No go. This was a feature I really wanted to get enabled on this device. My carrier (Rogers) does offer RCS messaging, but this simply is not working or not provisioning with the carrier server.
Since no one ever responded here and the carrier still hasn't come up with a fix, here is what I did to enable chat features and get past that "excuse the wait..." screen:
Restarted the device
Go to settings-apps-android messages and then force stop
Launch Google Play and uninstall messages
Then go back to Google Play and install latest version again
Chat features are then enabled. Not that it's that big of a deal because if the people you are texting don't have a phone that supports RCS and even if they do, if they don't have chat features turned on, then it still won't work. It was simply bugging me because the option was there and I couldn't get it enabled.
I am with rogers and have same issue. How do you uninstall messages? It only uninstall its update. Do you root to uninstall complete messages app?
I'm also with Rogers, and this is the solution that worked for me. I found it on the Rogers Community forums.
You have to disable the app called Carrier Services, now setup RCS through the Messages app.
Then you can reenable Carrier Services.
I also rebooted, but I don't know if that's necessary. I hope this helps.

If you force stop it, you can uninstall. It may only uninstall the updates, but it does uninstall after you finally get it to force stop. I had to try force stop a couple of times.

I didn't have to do this portion. When I went into Messages after doing my steps, chat features were automatically enabled.
What was really funny is Rogers kept sending me emails telling me they were "working on a fix but hadn't found one yet." When I got another email yesterday stating this from them, I chatted with tech support and told them I had fixed it myself so they could stop sending me emails about them working on it. Then I get an email from them stating that "they had fixed my issue..." LOL. Sure, sure you did.
I can't honestly say this was the cause, but my issues didn't happen until I updated to the January Security Patch. I'll try these steps tonight to see if I can get them re-enabled.

Does Rogers sell the Pixel 3 in their stores? I'm curious because I have purchased my Pixel 3 from Google and I'm using it on a carrier (T-Mobile) who doesn't sell the P3, but is starting to support RCS. However, their version of RCS support appears to only be enabled through a carrier supplied software update to T-Mobile branded phones. I'm afraid I'll never be able to use RCS on the ONE phone that comes with RCS support out of the box.
But if you were able to get RCS support without Rogers selling the phone, then there may still be hope for me someday!

Yup. Both the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL in their stores, online,etc.
If anyone's RCS won't work after clicking "yes, I'm in", just disable carrier services, go back to messages and opt in again. Once working, enable carrier services.
Chat features work in Messages App by Google LLC for me nearly everywhere now:
- Huawei AL10 P9 running Emui 8 Oreo on Telekom network in Hungary on WiFi (no Data subscription)
- Samsung Note 4 N910V LineageOS 16.0 Pie on Telekom network in Hungary on WiFi and Data
- Samsung Note 4 N910V LineageOS 16.0 Pie on GoogleFi roaming in Hungary on WiFi (cannot get LTE Network/Data connected to any tower)
- new device Google Pixel 2 XL Android Q on GoogleFi roaming in Hungary (will test in July)
On my home MikroTik router WiFi, where I run a domain and webserver, i forward port 80/443 to the webserver.
This is the only WiFi network, where I cannot use chat features for unknown reasons.
QUESTION: WHAT PORT(S) DOES RCS / CHAT FEATURES USE ON A WIFI NETWORK FOR COMMUNICATION TO OTHER PARTY AND THE PROVIDER SERVER (IN CASE OF FILE TRANSFER)
Google Fi support and Telekom HU Support dont understand the simple question or they resist to answer me, by replying constantly with the copy/paste of troubleshooting guides that I read all already. Either those are bot replies, or Google started to employ Level 1 people that are forced to reply automatic text. Telekom HU Support always was a big pain in the ass.
did you every figure it out?
Did you ever get this figured out? I've put my router in full DMZ and I still can't get RCS chat features to work on my home WiFi … but They USED TO WORK until a month or two ago... not sure when, It was my wife who noticed. tred 4 phones on 3 carriers, non work. many businesses have notices on the front doors too because it's killing employee's batteries while they work all day. Google refuses to answer.

I never succeeded yet
I assume (as a RCS novice) support has no idea what RCS is and Google has support agents that have also no idea and the people who developed this left the company or got kicked out...
I also think that my webserver port 80 and 443 causes this, I will try disabling the forward cause my webserver died waiting for replacement unit

I changed the forwarding to not forward ports 80 and 443 to a dedicated IP, still did not help
the router behind my mikrotik router and its wifi is capable of getting a status Connected
the mikrotik router itself and its wifi cannot get beyond Connecting...
I wonder if that might have to do something with IPv6?
Hi. After resetting the phone to factory settings, I can not turn on the chat features, the message configures is displayed, after a few attempts the message "confirm your number" appears, after three attempts the message "limit exceeded try again tomorrow" and so on overnight trying.

Hi,
Do you have Data activated during setup? Could help.

Yes, I have, matches have been with this for a month and I even turned off the chat for 8 days as I write in google help, but it did not work. of course, cleaning the data did nothing

Galaxy watch Reactivation Lock : ON (SM-R800)

I have a Galaxy Watch SM-R800 and the Galaxy Wearables app installed on my S10+ but couldn't pair my watch with my phone. Both my phone and watch were bought in India, but I use them here in Italy cause I live here.
I used this watch for many days with no problem at all and then one day I upgraded my phone to One UI 2 (beta) and I encountered this bug with security module, which locked me out from entering the phone even though I was entering the correct Pin or passcode.
After that I rolled back my phone to Android 9 (stable) version.
So my assumption is that the procedure that I followed to upgrade my phone to One UI 2 might have caused this issue with my watch.
Firstly I created a Samsung account with my email which by default is Italian cause of location, but I had to sign up for the beta program using an India account. No beta testing in Italy.
As suggested on XDA forums by someone I had to delete my Italian Samsung account and create Indian account with same email if I want to enroll for the beta program, which I did.
So I didn't use the watch for few days and later when I tried to pair it with my phone it says, "Couldn't Pair your watch" (Try Again/ Cancel)
I'm using the same email Id for Signing In to finish the setup of pairing with which I initially setup both the Phone and watch. It sometimes says I am using a different account from the one I used earlier to setup. I'm definitely sure that I never used any other account of mine or a friend. (No others)
I need your help if someone has a solution for this situation.
Thanks,
Akhil Bellam.

Hello. did you tried to reinitialise the watch?
The watch is locked (reactivation lock (not other security lock)) by original samsung account used when it was locked. You MUST NOT DELETE this account UNTIL the watch was UNLOCKED. If you delete the original account you will (never) not able to unlock the watch. (or use hack (paid) method))
I can help u have to use netodin and install combination file and then u have to remove reactivation lock and then install official firmware. Indeed a long and complicated process. Msg me on whatsapp 923107671256

It doesn't work if you try anything else other than flashing it.
By the way I fixed my watch finally.
I had to use the firmware and other combination files, but I couldn't find them anywhere on the web.
And then finally I found this video on Youtube showing how to remove that re-activation lock on Gear S3. youtube . com/watch?v=Afx3RWWFSfg&t=1s
and I contacted the guy on Facebook.
He redirected me to his website, where I paid him a little money $15 and he provided me with the necessary files to do the task.

'Call not sent' error on Android 10 beta

Anyone having this problem where call doesn't connect with error of 'Call not sent'? This is doesn't happen when connected to Wi-Fi but happens most of the time otherwise and I have to re-try 2 times (sometimes 10 times) to get the call connected. I have tried clearing data for phone app but it didn't help. I am not seeing any reports on it in any beta discussion so I am guessing its not a beta problem? It never happened before the beta update and I installed the beta update from total reset instead of just updating.
Yes. Only happens when I am on Bluetooth connected to my car. I gave to call from the phone app instead of my driver control.
"Call not sent" error on Samsung Note10
I'm having a similar issue with my Note10, just shows "Call not sent.", whether connected or not to Android Auto or any other dock/bluetooth, it doesn't seem to fix the problem.
I have tried several active sim cards from different carriers which work fine in other phones, but in the Note10 I can only access the web and text. When trying to make a call with full signal bars and LTE next to it, it just shows "Call not sent". I've done all the usual restart, full factory reset from the recovery menu, even reflashed it via Odin with the latest firmware (N970U1_UES2BTA1) three times, then factory reset again, but it's doing the same. It seems to be a hardware problem, not a software glitch.
By the way, my phone is unlocked and I have checked the IMEI to make sure it's not blacklisted. I have also examined the charging port for any liquid damage, but it's completely clean and shiny. When I dial the test code *#0011# to compare the network status screen against a Samsung S9's, I've noticed that the "MIPI TEST SUCCESS" and "ASDiv: PASS THROUGH" at the bottom of the screen are MISSING on the Note10, which might have something to do with the failed calls.
Also, out of curiosity I have installed a couple of different phone dialers (Google Phone and Simpler Dialer), but the outcome is the same "Call not sent.".
Evidently there's a hardware problem with the Note10 series (some or all), because Samsung's own forum full of similar complaints.:=(
Same problem. Getting call not sent
Was not issue in Android 9. Only Android 10.
Galaxy note 10+ unlocked version on tmobile.
I've also had other random Bluetooth issues.
this issue got so bad, i am not able to make calls, unless i make multiple attempts.
so i just upgraded to the S20 Ultra. Same issue!!
Here are other factors and connected devices.
Connected to a Ford vehicle (Sync; 2017 Explorer)
Connected to Samsung Active2 smartwatch (but issues remained even when watch disconnected).
I've also tried to unpair / re-pair. To no avail...
Help!

I have an Exynos Note 10+ I don't seem to have this problem and when I did the test you did I got "MIPI TEST SUCCESS" but nothing about ASDiv.
Could this be a problem with the Snapdragon chipset?

It certainly could be, on all other phones I always see the "MIPI TEST SUCCESS" in test mode, but not on the N970U.
It might be fixed with a new update, unfortunately there's still nothing newer available than UES2BTA1 as of right now.
I have the feeling it's a hardware issue rather than software, in which case it's not going to be fixable, short of replacing the main board.
No idea, why this started happening mostly after the last update.

Are you able to rollback?
As long as the bootloader is the same you might be able to go back to an update prior to the problem.
Not 100% sure but I believe the 5th number from the right in the build number is the bootloader version. Just need to make sure it is the same and you might be able to fix...
Sorry if I'm rambling, working on 3 hours sleep...

Right, but usually same bootloader version updates are just maintenance or critical security updates only.
Looks like some major changes have happened in the latest update, which could be causing the no call issue.
Just checked, and it's still the same version available.
Version: N970U1UES2BTA1/N970U1OYM2BTA1/N970U1UES2BTA1/N970U1UES2BTA1
OS: Q(Android 10)
I found a solution!
Google Voice app was the culprit. I uninstalled and so far it has been working for 2 days without issues. Tried this on both my new S20 and the Note 10+.

But it's happening for others with or without the Google Voice app installed.
You may have had a different issue.
Chiming in late to the game with a Samsung Galaxy S20. I never had this issue with the new OS on my S10 but it started happening with the S20. It's also intermittent. Sometimes it works. I have tried unpairing and repairing. I have tried deleting the bluetooth device and reconnecting it. All to no avail. At least other folks recognize this issue and hopefully Samsung issue an update soon.
i have regerts (spelled wrong to be funny)

As nice as this phone is--I am annoyed with myself that I upgraded to Android 10--everything worked so great with 9!!! I wish there was a way to go backwards. I might investigate that, actually. I have a little downtime as of late.
I finally updated to android 10, ui 2.0, and, luckly, all is working fine, only thing I notice is that battery seems to last a little bit less…
i have Android 10 ui 2.1 with infinity rom 6.0 rom N975FD and everything works perfect including goodlock 2020

For me, Android 10, whether UI 2.0 or 2.1
battery.... standby, is exceptional good .!
I am a power user, eg theming etc
so i don't worry or have time to worry,
about SOT ETC....
For me what matters is when , my device is sleeping.....!
/ if anything
is draining my device battery etc.
( Ihave about 200./300 apps.)
Suggestion... factory reset or did you already done that.?
See examples of device overnight
standby etc.

THIS WAS THE FIX FOR ME! I'll have to research why Android 10 isn't playing nicely with Google Voice, but I'm glad I can hit call and it goes though, instead of hitting "send" over and over and over again!!!
S10+ Exynos, running Android 10 stock - same problem. Annoying as hell!
I can't uninstall GV because I use it for international calls.
Edit: BTW - it definitely seems to be affected by connected BT headset. As soon as I turn the BT headset off I am able to make the call (using MPOW headset, don't remember the exact model).

I have had this issue so many times on my S20+ unlocked. Swipe and touch to call just doesn't work. I saw this thread today when I had multiple call not sent instances. I force stopped Google voice and the problem disappeared. If I have to make an international call, I just to start Google Voice.

Are you (were you at the time) connected to a BT headseat? It happens to me only when my headset is connected, and not just one - two different types of headseats and also happened once or twice when the phone was BT connected to my car. As soon as I disconnect the BT, all calls can be completed without a problem.

Galaxy Watch 4G LTE

Hello everyone, I've had a problem for a few days. (I am from France)
I have a galaxy S10 running Android 10
And a Galaxy watch under tizen 4.0.0.4 (I'm waiting for 4.0.0.7)
The stand-alone mode works, but the remote connected mode (4G) no longer works. However, I am good in 4g on the phone and on the watch. Also, I have activated on galaxy wearable, the remote connection box. (see picture)
Is this a problem from Samsung? Watch? Phone? Thanks for your help ?

Have you enabled it with your carrier? Mine required an extra plan to be able to use the 4g with my watch.
Thanks U for your Answer.
Of course, it s actived
Sometimes I have to reboot watch to make it work
Good day to you I'm working on the assumption that it is something that has worked and stopped functioning temporarily.
I wouldn't worry about it too much to be honest.
The watch connects to the phone over LTE via some cloud servers, occasionally they have issues with getting the watch to connect with the phone effectively, it happened to me a few weeks back but sorted it's self out after a few hours.
If it's something that's been going on for a longer time than a day or so, then it's time to start troubleshooting.

thank you for the answer. I also think that it comes from samsung servers because even when my watch is connected by Wifi and the mobile in 4g (or wifi because I also tested) it does not work anymore. However, it's been over 2 days now, so I don't think it comes from the watch ... Am I wrong?
Hmmm, try uninstalling the wear app, then reinstall again, if that isn't working you can try resetting the watch to factory settings and try again, it is possible it's a Samsung service issue, definitely something isn't handshaking somewhere, 2 days seems a bit of a long time for it to be a service issue though :/
Well, I tested everything to find out where the problem could come from. However, less than one could say is that Samsung technicians are not ... How to say ... Responsive! And that's a shame. That said, the main thing is to have found (I hope) the solution, and that it could help people.
The problem came from the toggle of the request "notif arriving on lel" and which is sent to the samsung account and then that the watch receives it and by analyzing my samsung account (with a pc on the samsung site), it generates that the "cloud" part of my account was not active but in error (and no response from samsung on an e-mail that I sent to them, hence my amazement about the reactivity).
Suddenly, I had a second samsung account, I re-paired everything, put this new account in wearale (essential), checked on the samung site that cloud state "active" and the ca worked direct .....
So the mystery: why my cloud (which is used to receive notifications) was in error .... I would never know lol. Or was it a confluence between the 2 accounts? I don't think it worked before ... In advance, I completely deleted this account that had the error.
I hope this solution will be eternal lol and that it will help
