[Q] want to dial out from Gear 2 ($100 to make it work) topic

When I got my gear and Note 3 (from a guy on Craigslist) it worked perfectly. My very favorite App was "Pattern Dialer", which made it possible to speed dial from the Gear, and launch/hear the calls on the gear.

Then, I switched from Page Plus to Verizon, and the phone upgraded to Android 4.4.4. And pattern dialer stopped working.

I purchased another note 3 running 4.3, (and rooted it to prevent upgrades) in hopes that would solve my problem, but it didn't.

Does anyone have any ideas as to why this isn't working or what I should do to make it work? I've got 0 if someone can make it work on one of my phones.

I have a toddler, and being able to answer and make calls from my wrist was really amazing. Please help me get it back.

Thanks so much.
