Hi,
could anyone help me? MY S7 has stopped sending me notifications for text message arrivals.
I am using the standard app which worked fine, now doesn't notify at all. Neither notification or signal or blue LED.
Message notifications are all turned in in settings.
I also use whatsapp which notifies fine as does facebook messenger.
Anyone help at all thx?

Hello,
Recently I've been having issues with the notifications on the Gear 2 with Whatsapp+
I had my groups inside the app set to Mute and to not recieve notifications, it worked perfectly until one of the recent updates, which one, I'm not sure.
What happens now is the following:
Whenever I have no group messages I receive notifications from regular chats perfectly displaying who sent the message and the preview of the message BUT .....
Whenever I have unread group notifications (of which I have removed from pushing beyond the app) and a regular message is sent, the gear 2 pops up notification from the GROUP which is muted and notifications turned off.
Its annoying because I have to check who sent the message due to the fact that somehow the group notifications take priority in the preview of the message even though they are turned off..
Its really specific issue and hard to explain, I've searched forums and what not and I've yet to find anyone with this issue. Ive tried reinstalling gear software, resetting to factory settings, turning on/off notifications, installing regular Whatsapp to no avail.
I can't see the message from my contact whenever I have unseen group messages. very friggin frustrating....
Anyone know what causes this issue? Any help would be appreciated.

I've noticed the exact same thing
I have even upgraded from an S4 to an S5 and the problem is still there
For Whatsapp I have different LED settings for group messages and personal messages. However it seems that the notifications for personal messages are displayed instead of the group ones.
For example if I have a purple LED for private messages and white for group. The purple will still shine for all group messages
Does anyone else have this problem? The same happens with the vibration and notification sound.
Thanks very much guys!
I have the same issue.
A green light for normal WhatsApp messages and nothing for group WhatsApp messages, but the notification will still flash green when I receive messages from groups.
Note that I have disabled notification light in WhatsApp itself.
I have the same problem. Happened after I went to Lollipop.
Then I switched to a Moto X (2014), and still the same issue (group notification causes personal notification).
I'm having the same issue, this makes it hard to use Light Flow with all the group messages coming in. Suppose there isn't anyone who found a fix yet?
Making a profile for whatsapp group messages with everything turned off doesn't seem to work either...
UPDATE

I've got a fix coming for this very soon. Just finishing testing that group notifications still work when stacked up with other notifications. Whatsapp with lollipop actually raise several notifications for each message you see which is what causes the issue.

hi guys, I have the gear s2 for about a day only so far, and is hoping some of you can help me with the issues I'm experiencing.
1. When I receive a message on Viber, the watch doesn't vibrate (have read through similar threads on this already and have tried factory resetting and uninstalling the gear app on my phone). Watch vibrates fine when I receive messages via the default messaging app. I did add Viber to the notification apps on the gear app.
2. Checking the notification area, it just shows me "NAME has sent you a text message" instead of the actual message itself. At first I thought this is as good as I can get it to work, and that it isn't compatible with Viber to show the actual messages, but last night when I went to sleep, I received 3 Viber messages, and this morning, when I checked the watch, all 3 "actual" messages were displayed on the notification screen. So there must be some ways to make this work? New messages I've received thus far this morning have reverted back to "NAME has sent you a text message" notification. I think it is kind of pointless to have a smartwatch that doesn't vibrate when someone sends you a text via Viber, and when you do check your watch, you only see a notification that someone sent you a text message instead of being able to read the actual message.
3. The watch forces you to use the default messaging app, and won't work properly with Go SMS Pro. I've always used Go SMS Pro, because the default messaging app is very slow on threads with a lot of messages. Any workaround for this?
4. Is it safe to use the dock with my Samsung quick charger adapter or do I have to use its own adapter?
I pair the watch with a Galaxy Note Edge. Thanks!
EDIT: Fixed the Viber issue by enabling "Show Message Preview" on Viber settings within your phone app. The downside is, when enabled, the notifications on your phone when you receive a Viber message will also show the whole actual message.
anyone guys? especially #2? Is there a way to make viber messages show the actual message itself and not just a notification? thanks

After using the watch for another day, I found out that Go SMS Pro works with the watch, and you don't have to use the default Samsung Messaging app.
Also found out that when you receive a Viber message from 1 person, the watch will only notify you that you have received a text message. But if another person sends you a message through Viber as well (without you opening your phone yet), then both "actual" messages will start to show on the watch. Replying will still require your phone, as you can't reply though the watch. Weird that this happens and I hope it can be fixed.
Thanks.
Hi,
get my Honor V10 today and the first thing i recognized, that notofication LED is not working for Gmail. Same as my other Huawei/Honar devices before.
Is there any solution to make it working?
I think you can see in settings-apps-gmail and notification, or direct in gmail app
I have the same problem. Everything is checked for notifications including inside the gmail app. I do get led notification for phone and messages but not gmail. Does it work for anyone else?
Works for my gmail.. I do get led notification
