Samsung Gear S2: How to replace glass screen on Samsung Gear S2 Classic watch face?

Sun, 01 Jul 2018 22:19:25 -0700

Glass on Samsung Gear S2 Classic Watch is cracked on edges and has been slowly falling away (There is a screen protector on it that has helped keep it together, but it is slowly falling away in bit). Touchscreen still works perfectly, so the digitizer seems to be fine. I just need to find a way to replace the glass, and did not know how easy or hard it may be. Thanks!

Samsung Gear S2: How to fix the accelerometer

Mon, 05 Mar 2018 03:24:49 -0700

I have a Samsung gear s2. The accelerometer stopped working, then starting counting way too many steps, and now stopped working again. Consequently, the pedometer doesn't work and the wake up gestures do not work.

Any suggestions? I don't think the watch is under warranty anymore.

Samsung Gear S2: Gear S2 Classic Replacement Bezel Rings

Thu, 18 Apr 2019 15:20:36 -0700

Hi, I have the Gear S2 Classic (SM-R372), and somehow the top of my bezel, just the bezel's cover ring, came off while it was in water. Is there anyway a replacement top ring is sold anywhere?

I've only been able to find the entire bezel assembly, which on mine still works, and I don't want to buy an entire new bezel just for the ring.

Thanks for the help!

Samsung Gear S2: Button fell out of Samsung Gear S2

Mon, 15 May 2017 04:59:08 -0700

I have a Samsung Gear S2 and the back button on the side of the unit fell out. The dinks at Samsung deemed it as "physical damage" (I'm a magician, so it can be considered damaged without having absolutely any signs of actual damage) and are avoiding it like the plague, like the good capitalists that they are.

Anyways. This is still a fairly new product, but does anyone know how the button is fixed into the unit? Like a gasket or something? The button and pin still fit into the unit and make contact with the solenoid (or whatever) inside the unit, but it will just fall out if faced with unfriendly gravity..

Samsung Gear S2: Won't charge. Says battery too hot.

Tue, 14 Jul 2020 12:08:51 -0700

I jumped in the pool with my watch on and found out it didn't like it. The screen flickered, but wouldn't come on. Using the tear down video and a 64 piece bit set both from ifixit, I was able to take the watch apart and let it dry out. After that I tried to charge it but got a triangle symbol message with a thermometer in it and it wouldn't charge. I left it off of the charger over night, then put it on the next day and it charged right up and behaved normally! Sadly, when the day was over and I went to charge it back up I got the same warning and it wouldn't charge. I employed the same method as before and it does charge after a few hours off the charger to "cool down"?? Has anyone else had this proiblem? If so, any advise?

Samsung Gear S2: Gear S2 Listen to Music on BT Headset Spotify Offline Without Phone

Sun, 26 Jan 2025 05:04:16 -0700

Hello

I want to buy a Samsung Gear s2 to use it at gym, so I don't have to carry my phone with me.

I was wondering if I can use it without phone to listen to music. I also want to make sure it has ability to have spotify offline, and connect to bt-headset.

I looked up internet, but I think my case is so specific.

Thanks
