(LTE version only.)

 

I just figured out why it wouldn't work with calls.  For me, the solve was to disconnect the Bluetooth connection between the watch and my phone.  My watch is now a stand alone, I then connected to my Bluetooth earbuds and made a call.  It worked. I could hear through my earbuds. I could also hear music through spotify.

@sparkyram: When the call come through, can you try accepting/answering it on the Watch 4 by pressing the green phone symbol, as opposed to answering the call on your phone? If this doesn't help, check the Quick Panel on the watch to ensure that the headset is connected (it should show a headphone symbol with the Bluetooth 'B' as one of the earphones). If it isn't connected, head to Settings > Connections > Bluetooth > Bluetooth Audio to select the headset from here.

Hi!

I have the same issue, have not found a solution yet.

(Using OnePlus 5t and 1More headphones, Spotify is working great, but not calls)

The Bluetooth earbuds connect to my watch 4 classic, but I can't use them for phone calls. Its on for calls and audio but will only come through on watch speaker.   The earbuds connect for music but not calls.  It was the entire purpose of purchasing the watch. Please help

Are you answering calls on your ear buds and making them through the ear buds? You phone will automatically route the call through where ever it was initiated so if you called someone via the watch it will go through the watch speaker, to change where it has gone you click on the Bluetooth icon and select the ear buds and it will route the call through there.
