How To Change Time On Samsung Gear S2

Hello,

3 days ago my Gear S2 started showing a diferent time as the one that my HTC A9 shows. It shows 1 more hour.

I have tried reseting the watch more than once and the problem continued. I have tried setting the time manually on the phone but i have to have the time on my phone 1 hour less so that the gear shows the correct one.

I tried using network time and also no change.

Here the time zone is -4, the actual time is 5:35 pm on my phone but the watch shows 6:35 pm. If I manually change the time to 4:35 o the phone then the watch shows 5:35 pm.

I last made a downgrade of the firmware on the gear and the problem persisted, after doing the actuallization it continues.

I do not know what else to do.

Please someone help me,

Thanks

Hi there, I'm having a similar problem to this, but my watch is four hours slower than the phone/real time. This is with a Huawei Mate 8 - which already requires the use of an older version of the Gear Plugin app to even let it connect! (With the newest version of the plugin the time is correct - it just won't let the the watch connect to the phone).

Did you manage to sort your problem, and if so are you able to share the answer?
Many thanks

Same here

Same problem as Robert, surprised nobody has a fix for this. It has been driving me crazy. Should I call Samsung?

I have figured out a way of solving this case,
(1) Go to settings - Go to connect to new phone.
(2) Once Your watch has reseted, it will take you to the start menu(where it tell you to download the samsung gear app), if you notice, there's a question mark in the corner, click it, then scroll to the last section of the menu, and click the , I am not sure the exact name, connect-by-itself option.
(3) Once you accepted, then it will tell you to set up the watch manually, Date, GMT, and even the time.
(4) Once you've done that then your watch setup process is complete.
(5) Then go to setting and scroll to where it says "connect to phone" (as your watch is on permanent standalone mode, currently)
(6) The watch will then restart and take you to the same menu from the first place.
(7) Make sure that your phone bluetooth is on, and go to the settings in your gear s app, on the top right corner you may notice 3 dots, click it and select connect to new gear.

It worked with my watch successfully, however my watch is 5 minutes behind... so give it a try, if it doesn't work, then I can't help you further than that, I'm truly sorry.

All was fine, until I connect my Gear S2 too my Galaxy S8 again. Then time was set 1 hour + again, and date/time options are gone. That's a DST issue. Brazilian law has changed the date of DST start from this year on...
