Sync3/Samsung Gear issues
Anyone else here having issues with Sync3 and their Samsung smartwatch playing nice together? I have had this truck for a little over a month now. At first I didn't have any issues. Now a majority of the time when my phone connects via Bluetooth to sync it will disconnect from my watch. After turning the truck off it also fails to reconnect. Thanks.

It's not. Just to clarify...my phone used to stay connected to my watch and pick up sync3. Now it drops the watch and won't reconnect.

I have the same problem but it doesn't do it all the time. I also noticed the same problem connecting if it's between my Android phone (Samsung) and an OBDII bluetooth adapter and Sync. I think the issue is with the phones ability to manage more than one bluetooth session.

Phone and watch software are on the latest updates. So that's not it. Like the other poster mine doesn't always disconnect...maybe 7 times out of 10 it does. Very frustrating.

Bluetooth. It just works great, except for when it doesn't. Hey, at least its not fire-wire or some of those other protocols they were pushing 15 years ago.

hey, don't knock firewire. in my line of work (and many others) that was a critical technology for a long time. It gave us faster transfer speeds well before USB caught up and lapped it. Faster speeds is a huge deal when time is money and you need to transfer a few TB of data.
Anyway, what kind of phone is doing this? I assume Samsung, but which one? My S9 doesn't do that at all (yet?). It will disconnect call audio and media but the notifications etc still work fine. afaik, no samsung devices support two connections to remote call audio at the same time. I'm not sure *any* do
