Notification Icons Not Showing - Samsung Gear 2

For some strange reason, my notifications icons are showing when I receive a notification
Anyone have an idea on how to resolve this?
Thanks in advance

I don't know how you have yours set up. Mine is stock with a note 3 and it stopped doing some very basic thighs after that last gear manager update. I uninstalled gear manager and reinstalled it and everything is back to working like it should.
Try that.

Notifications not showing

Hey everyone,
I was using my Xoom earlier today when I noticed that my notifications were no longer being shown on the bar even though I had notifications. At first, I thought it may be an app I downloaded recently that caused a problem but after uninstalling all my recent apps my notifications would still not appear. The only recent thing I have done to my Xoom is put the recovery onto it but that shouldn't have changed anything. Anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Do you have notifications turned on?

The notifications still show up when I click on the clock but what I don't get are the icons on the bottom bar indicating I have a notification. But to answer your question, yes I do have notifications turned on.
problem fixed... started working out of nowhere I don't know why...

[Q] Messaging problem?

The problem is notifications aren't showing up unless I open the messaging app then the notification in the status bar comes up. What is the problem? I went in settings to make sure the notification box was checked and everything. How do I fix this? The only way the notifications show up is if I restart the phone.
Oh and also it doesn't vibrate either even tho my phones on vibrate
Played around with it and found out all I had to do was force stop the messaging app. Now it works perfect.

Notification bar stopped working

Hi people!
Suddenly, my notification bar has stopped (vertical and horizontal), so, I cannot receive any notification.
I did a dalvik caché, or even check in settings. But I couldn't see nothing that made it be stopped.
Do you know something about this? I'm using XtraSmooth ROM.
So ask in the rom thread... It's likely rom-dependent.
I checked everything, and everything was good configured.
But, I solved it in the most strange way ever:
- Changing the phone to "guest user".
Now, the notification bar is working again! :victory: (You cannot know how annoying is see your phone vibrating and you don't know which notification is.... )

Gear 2 only displays preview to notification in stock Messaging app

Hey guys,
As the title says, I'm unable to get previews to messages on my Gear 2 anymore. I used to have a Note 3 which worked perfectly with it, all apps displayed a brief preview when the notification pops up on screen of who messaged me / what was said. Since I've upgraded to the Note 5, I was initially only able to get the previews on things like Instagram posts and Facebook notifications / messages, and only on the stock messaging app. In the last couple of days I've had nothing but the stock messaging app work with previews - everything else is just an empty notification.
I've tried resetting the Gear, uninstalling and reinstalling the Gear Manager app, leaving all settings as default, removing phone lock, enabling and disabling preview settings on both phone and watch... nothing has worked.
Has anybody else had issues similar to this? Could it have something to do with upgrading to Lollipop? Any help would be greatly appreciated

Where's My Yellow Dot?

Can anyone help.? I have seen others have the Yellow Dot showing they have unread notifications. I have the S2 for T-Mobile. Just got it. I don't get that dot for unread notifications. Anyone else have this issue? What did you do to resolve it or could you not resolve it? I am running the most current software too so I am up-to-date. Thanks!
I'm assuming you have activated the yellow dot notification in your Gear Manager app settings?

Do you have apps selected to send notifications to your watch?

The 3g version hasn't received the update yet.

I just got the bluetooth version and its updated to the latest software. I have the option checked in both the gear app and on the phone. Have tried factory resetting the watch and also clearing data on the gear app. I can't seem to get the yellow dot. Any suggestions?
Update: I figured out that if the "turn on screen" option is enabled in gear manager, then it automatically dismissed the yellow dot, the same way it does if you go over to the notification screen and back to the watch face (but without actually clearing the notification).
Anybody know if this is a bug, a recent change, or has it always been like that?

I have the sim enabled version on T-Mobile and I have the dot. You need to activate it in settings.

So I guess you didn't see the date that I posted that? The 3G version from Tmobile has only had the update for maybe 2 weeks now.
I tried everything in this post and a few others on this forum and nothing works for galaxy note 4
Fixing yellow dot on your Samsung gear S2
This is such an easy fix!!! Go to your device (for example I have Galaxy s4) and go to your gear app and go to notifications and scroll down to turn on or off the yellow dot.
