SW2 Notifications - Sony Smartwatch

Hi All,
I have had a Smartwatch2 for a week now, and noticed that over the last few days I no longer get any twitter @ replies or mentions pushed to the watch (using the Sony Smart Accessory). Also when managing the twitter preferences I experience a lot of FC's (could be due to the number of followers etc?).
My question is , how is everyone else handing notifications , using the individual plugins , or a third party app (i tried Watchit , but nothing ever got pushed).
Cheers
Gavin

I've been using watchit! both with the smartwatch 1 and 2... works great once you tweak it. remember you have to enable it in accessibility like the instructions indicate, otherwise it will not work.

Cheers - do you use any of the sony watchapps , or just let watchit control all the notifications you want?

It will be great if the notification counter would be visible on the digital clock in standby.
So i don't press button to control notifications.

This is a very good suggestion, a functionality that I don't think should be too hard for Sony to provide.

Re: Sw2 Notification
I also using this smartwatch, i also want this fuctionality on my smartch watch... Thanks for suggesstions

Watchit also works perfectly on my SW2

Watchit FTW. Don't waist your money on the other paid apps(unless you want to), Watchit is awesome.

+1 to WatchNotifier.
Its a paid App, but i like it much more.
I tried watchit, but i must disable the Message Information for every App manuelly. I will only get notifications from whattsapp. So i must disable 200 Apps!
Then i tried WatchNotifier and there i have an option to disable all Apps at once! Great, fast, stable and no problems. And 1,49 Euro are not much money.

Ant suggestions for an app for emails? There is already a task extension for gmail. But I need one for regular work emails. I am not on an Xperia. The standard email task extension won't work on a non xperia device.

The free k9mail extension works very well on the SW2, but of course one must also use k9mail on the smartphone as email client.

Yeah! Watchit is really good and free! I turned off all apps notifications by default and only had to select one by one those I wanted to be notified. And it's awesome. The only thing I miss is to be able to get rid of the default notification app of the sw2 ?

[Q] Plugin WhatsApp for LiveView

Hello everybody,
I'm sure we have here some WhatsApp lover. And of course some who have the liveview from Sony Ericsson
I love my liveview because i can leave my phone in my bag like in school and just watch what happen on my mobile with it.
But i use really often WhatsApp and I could be glad to have notifications on this little gadget
First of all, anyone knows if there is a plugin for it?
And second, is anyone interessed in making this?
btw, thank you to have read what i've wrotte :
PS: Or what about a simple plugin for every notifications, just showing it have a notification on the phone?
+1, I'd really be interested too
Same here. I would really love to get a notification on my liveview from whatsapp.
Tasker
Hey,
i try to realise it with tasker.
At the moment i read the notification, write it into an var and push it via OpenWatch Plugin to my watch.
Problem:
I cant read the message text. The only thing i can push to my watch is: "You have new mail from %%%%.". How could i solve this?
any progress?
Anyone found such an app now? Any progress in developing? Would be really, really cool to show whatsapp on my wrist!
+1
Just bought the liveview and I think it could be good...
So, I also would need a Whatsapp plugin
Me too.

Asking again: any news about Whatsapp support for the LiveView?
I don't have one (waiting for the sony smartwatch i think, if that turns out any better)
But i'm guessing a whatsapp plugin would be very possible, especially since whatsapp stores the messages unencrypted on the sd card last time i checked..
me too

also willing to pay for it or do it my self as soon as my liveview as arrived.
but would realy be nice to have it soon
luck_u
There is a reverse enginering project going on XDA somewhere, it that proves succesful, I think the WhatsApp plugin is not far away
Ok guys. I have this working. And here's how.
1 install a plug in from the market called Custom Notifier
2 allow the plug in to read your notifications by going into Settings, Accessibility
3 enable the plug in, in the LiveView app
4 select which apps you want to be notified about
5 press the thanks button
6 enjoy

[How To] Fix push notifications in the official Facebook app

Hey guys,
So, you know that official Facebook app is supposed to have push notifications, right? Yeah? Well, it apparently does, they just never worked for me at all. Turns out, there's a fix, and it's quite the strange one - you have to sign into the Facebook app on a Blackberry. Once you've done that, you'll start getting push notifications for wall posts, comments, and event invites, with an entirely new notification icon. Weird, no?
Of course, it's not like I had a recent BB device just lying around.. Thankfully, the Blackberry emulator software, available from RIM's site, works just fine for our purposes. I've written up a guide for the curious, with links to the emulator downloads and so forth.
Seems the fix was found in May over at AndroidCentral, but I'd certainly not seen it posted anywhere I frequent, and had to spend some time searching for a fix to stumble across the post - hence this topic.
Let me know if it works for you.
I saw this a while ago. I stopped by an at&t store, used a display blackberry, and yes, it works beautifully!

Works for Nexus 1 using CM7, did it with the emulator
Cool cool, glad to hear it's working.
Has changed the way I use Facebook on my phone, really, nice to have a functional app instead of it just occasionally telling me something I already knew.
Hey thanks! Its working

How do you get Android notifications for other Facebook notifications, such as people commenting on a photo, etc? I'm still reliant on email for that.

That only has options to enable email notifications, nothing else. Am I missing something?
As a separate issue, I can't get these push notifications working in the first place. My settings have the Blackberry app listed, I don't know what is going wrong.
I've NEVER received notifications from facebook until now!! My phone just came alive and notifications started to flow. The Blackberry trick works.
One thing though, I had to open the Options dialog during BB Facebook app and check the "Blackberry notifications" option.

Then why do you state that you 'prefer' WhatsApp if you have not tried WatchIt!?
I tried them both and 'prefer' WatchIt!
I tried Augmented Smartwatch, but it kept locking up and crashing. Even without the crashing, I believe I prefer WatchIt!
I'm sticking with WatchIt! for now. Simple and effective. :good:

Google Now notifications ?

Unless I'm configuring it incorrectly, Watchit and watchify only say there's one alert rather than presenting the actual alert.
I will look at Notify

Yes, I found this, but like the others, didn't appear to handle Google Now cards. I've tried about 6, but not very scientifically, so perhaps I've rushed the tests a little, I certainly can't recall which did what.
Will give it another try this evening thanks
Lightflow can do this. You can set which cards do and do not get sent to the watch. It comes across as text, not an interactive card (but I don't think any app does the interactive card thing) . Plus lightflow is awesome for your phone notifications.
Light Flow!
If you purchase the full version of light flow you can push alot of notifications to your watch, including google now.

Doesn't it push the notifications? Or are you looking for something more then just getting the notification, like actual swipe away cards?

Hi, though cards would be nice, I would be happy with a text style alert/headline for each google now card. For me the whole purpose of the smart watch is to leave the phone in my pocket as much as possible. I like the cards but many are irrelevant or not urgent (like many texts and most FB posts) so if I can casually glance at my watch to confirm this, then it's work is done.
and no, it didn't appear to push the alerts individually.

It does. I do it. You need to go into settings and switch on what you want to come across. It works well - it even sends me traffic alerts while driving.

Then I will buy and try again, I was most impressed with it's configuration anyway. Will let you know how it goes, thanks
Apps like e.g. WatchIt have two different methods of getting the notifications from the phone to the watch: Notification access (under Security settings) and Accessibility. Only the latter one can get Toasts and thus Google Now cards. At least it was like this for me.
OK, I give up, I will live without GNow notifications till the Moto is on my wrist.
THanks for the suggestions

Push Notification of Facebook Official App Not Working

I use Samsung Galaxy Note 4 SM-N910C that is rooted and running official marshmallow. All was going well for 6-7 months. But suddenly I am not getting push notification from the facebook app for the last month. The only time I am getting push notification from the facebook app when I try to login from another browser and a code is needed from code generator. Push notification from other apps, email, instagram etc are working. I have tried clearing data of the app, turning off platform, uninstalling greenify. Butnothing worked. What to do now? Please help.
Hi there so generally the facebook app is unliked around here because it takes up a huge amount of RAM. Many people here prefer to use an alternate client for facebook I've heard of some I think you should try some out if you feel you have done everything to activate push notifications. Here is a rddit link in case you are wondering about some opinions https://www.reddit.com/r/androidapps/comments/3k2ol0/facebook_app_alternative/

No, I don't have another android device. When I use swipe pro, push notification works in that app. and in facebook app itself, for code generator notification and someone is live notification, push notification works immediately. Someone told me that this is facebook's problem. He faced the same problem. After his reporting for 2 times to facebook, they resolved it some days later.
Then you should probably contact Facebook if its a problem on their end that way you can now for sure if you can fix it.
