12 am notice? - Samsung Galaxy Gear

Hey guys... I have my volume all the way up on the gear and notice my phone beeps at midnight the last few nights. It has been on the charger each time and I originally thought it was done charging and that's why it beeped. However, it doesn't seem to be the case. I have hourly notification off on the clock and don't know what setting I have that sets it off at midnight. I have not noticed it at any other time. Anyone experience this or know what it is?

I get a buzz at 12pm also. Usually asleep by 12am but probably then too.
Not sure how this got turned on or how to turn it off.

Ummm... Haven't noticed at noon but will see today.

Mine did not go off at 12 noon... Only midnight

Check if you have the time set correctly it should go off at noon not 12am check if you have am/pm set correctly

I think the question here is why?? Why did they set an annoying beep to go off at midnight?

I only get it at midnight and not hourly like one of the settings... I actually think I figured it out. It must be my Calander. If I have an all day event, I assume it goes off at midnight since that is the next day. I have nothing in my calendar tomorrow so I will see if it goes off again tonight. If it does, I have no clue what's setting it off.

Looks like it was my Calander... No beeps tonight at midnight.

I have my watch set to vibrate, and I keep getting a quick vibration at noon every day. The display doesn't come on, I don't have anything on my calendar @ noon, and I don't have hourly notifications turned on. Could be happening at midnight too, don't know, I'm generally in bed.

Yeah mine was doing that too. I think if you have an all day event scheduled on your calendar, it beeps/vibrates at midnight.

Mine required a reboot. First Android phone that need that. Even last fall, on froyo, it did it itself. Ha.
Hawaii doesn't recognized daylight savings time but mine changed anyway, then changed back to regular time lol.

Mine didn't change either. Funny thing is whenever it goes into it's random reboot mode it will say its like 7pm no matter what time it is.
So glad the bionic battery will be here tomorrow and I can get rid of this crap XD.

Unboxing

Got my Gear in this morning. Wanted to do an unboxing video. A first for me. Enjoy!

Give us your impressions.
So far, I am limited until my phone arrives later on this afternoon. Right now I am wearing it to see how it feels. I have large wrists so I had to use the furthermost hole in the band, but it fits well. It has a bit of weight to it, which for some, might take a little getting used to. The buckle also serves as the speaker.
If you're typing it can interfere with the wrist rests on your keyboard but your mileage might vary. I did power it on and take it outside to test outdoor visibility. It's sunny here in Houston today, I didn't see any issues, but again, it's just my preference.
It came with a 71% charge. I used the cradle to charge it to 100% which didn't take long at all. The watch is pretty much useless without the phone.
I want to see a pic of it on your wrist for size comparison plz ,,,,thx
Can you tell me if an MMS will show up on screen ?
How far away from the phone can you get before it loses connection ?
Thanks!

Judging from a few comprehensive review I've seen yes it does have limitations like for the email. However this thing does have potential... At this rate though, checking the battery life will have to wait till tomorrow as I still don't have the phone...

Great battery life!

I'm on my 5th day with the gear. Just want to say I think the battery life is great.
I've had it off the charger for 5 hours today and the battery is only at 96%, and that's with some good use of S Voice. Think I could make it two or three days, although it's no big deal to charge it at night when I charge my phone.
Same for me, 4th day for me - charged it every evening so far and every evening when I get back from work i'm on around 70%, which is great and unexpected. Won't charge it today, will wait to see how long it takes to completely discharge. Will update again here...
My battery life sucks! I'm at 84% and I took it off the charger 3 hours ago. I reset it last night, thinking that might help but it didn't. Am I the only one with this terrible battery life? I think I'm going to take this watch back.
Does anyone have any recommendations for me to get better battery life?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
The battery life is a lot better than I expected. Forgot to charge it last night and I'm still at 53%. That was with a lot of usage going home last night too.
Sent from my SM-N900P using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I charge overnight, wear it from 7:45am to midnight and usually end up with 40% left at the end of the day. I get between 20-40 email/texts a day, make few calls but spend a lot more time playing with the Gear itself.

I'm at 81% now, that's 3% drop in 15 minutes. What are your settings? My brightness is at 3 an I'm using the wake feature. I am also using the shortcut watch face with the media control shortcut.

I have been off the charger for 5 hours now and am at 85%. Using the brightness setting at 2 with amber text.
Getting a lot of notifications constantly. It's not too bad~
I'll try the brightness at 2 and see how that goes. Thanks for the feedback.
How do you guys check the battery percentage? I thought that you put your finger at the top of the display and held it there for a few minutes. Not working for me.
Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk 4
I'm also using 3 with awake and shortcut. Did you let the battery drain completely before charging the first time? Sadly the gear outlasts my note.

No, should I try that? I never have worried about how I charge a device. I've never had a problem with anything else. What watch face are you using?

Press screen w 2 fingers for few seconds and will display apps running. Swipe LT or RT to close out. 2 finger tap will show percent and if bluetooth connected.

Here's the watch face I'm using. I don't know if you have to drain it completely before charging but I've been told that it does help condition the battery. It's something I have always done and I've never had issues with the battery draining too fast.

I charged my Gear last night for the first time. After which it has been on for 15 hrs now and it's at 89% battery. I have played with it some to. GREAT BATTERY LIFE!

this is day one for me, 8 hours in and i'm at 70%, brightness is at 5 and i ahve the auto awake feature. I get alerts almost constantly with vibrate turned on. I am constantly turning the watch face on ether by moving my arms around or just the alerts. I would say this thing has pretty damn good battery life.

Wow! I would love to have your battery life on my watch.
10 hrs of operation, with brightness at 2, and 58% remaining now.
It appears that there are some variations in different batteries based on what I am reading.
YMMV applies here.
I think it's calming down now. I'm at 56%. I unplugged it at around 7 this morning. If I can make it a full day I'll be happy. I will let it drain all the way down tonight and see if that helps.
It's the stock shortcuts face. Left to right is media player, contacts, and dialer.

Just curious, were you not at home? If you were home, why would you not just put it on the charger? I've always thought this was odd, especially when people complain about a phone not lasting 3 days. They have access to a charger, but they don't use it. I put my phone on the charger every night when i go to bed so it's always fully charged in the morning.
Again, just curious as it's your phone so i really don't care what you do. lol

Less charge cycles on the battery? Data disables? Maybe he was charging his phone and/or he just leaves the option on unless he needs the other features of a smartphone.

I noticed this the other day. Just to be safe I added the Clock app to the list of allowed apps, and it still didn't buzz.
Many years ago when I bought my first "smart" phone, I turned my old Sony Erickson phone off and put it on the shelf. The next morning it turned itself back on to ring the alarm, so I wouldn't miss my appointment. That sweet thing was way ahead of its time , and it wasn't even supposed to be "smart."
I can confirm the alarm does go off and sounds off while your phone is in UPSM. every night I go to sleep wether it's charging or not I turn on UPSM and every day my alarm wakes me up, and when I wake up before it it'll still go off. So may e it's the way u set up ur alarm that caused the problem. Hell, I can even use the facebook app while in UPSM. Good luck man.

If you want to know why, it's not good practice to leave your phone in the charger for many reasons. Some maybe superstitious to others and not to many.
I just wanted to put it in the mode to try it overnight since it only drains a single percent like in 8 hours.
Lastly, I'm not the type of person that complains about battery anyways.

I don't have any problems with battery life, but a lot of people seem to complain about it. At midnight last night I was at 28% after taking it off the cradle at 7 am. Right now I'm at 80% at 3:30pm EST after taking it off the cradle at 7 am. I don't let the screen stay on and I keep my brightness at 3.
Does this update break anything.. Root wise? I just got notified about it
I got the notification
I'd imagine that if rooted, it wouldn't install. Just like a nexus device. If it did though, root would usually be lost. Give it a go and let us know
