Samsung Gear S2: "make a call to activate your Gear number" ??

[Ivan Berger]

From time to time, my Gear S2's screen tells me to "make a call to activate your Gear number." I can get a dialpad from there, and have tried dialing my landline number and my cellphone number (an LG Android linked to the Gear by Bluetooth), but just get a quick tone and a message that the call did not go through,

What number should I call?

you did not mention your service provider so cannot give specific help, but if you do a search for that error message, you will find the steps needed to activate based on the specific service provider.
