Text Notifications - Gear2 - Samsung Gear 2

I think maybe since the latest update, I am not getting any text message notifications to my Gear 2.
(Samsung Galaxy 7Edge
- I have checked and unchecked the notifications
- other notifications seem to work (email, phone calls, facebook messenger)
- rebooted the phone and watch
- disconnected and reconnected
- did a light reset on the watch
all of the above have not helped resolve this.
Is there something i am missing? Is this caused by the recent update? I am currently using 2.2

As an update to this thread, after the light reset, i did a few tests, and that seemed to have worked. If anyone else is experiencing the same, please post and let us know.
Thanks

Do you do a light restart from the Gear 2? This has worked for me, but when i restarted the watch it seemed to have reverted back. So now i just leave the watch on for now. It lasts me at least 2 days before i have to charge it again.

SMS Notifications - No Vibration

Hey,
I am receiving notifications for text messages, however, the watch will not vibrate along with the notification no matter how I change the settings. The watch vibrates for all other types of notifications. I am using a LG G3 phone and the Gear S3 Classic Bluetooth version. Is anyone else encountering an similar issue?
To troubleshoot I have:
1) Double checked the notification settings in the gear app.
2) Ensured the notification settings are on in the watch
3) Made sure notifications and vibration are on in the phone.
Thanks,
K.schoff2010
Workaround
To anyone who is experiencing the same problem I found a workaround this afternoon. I switched to Google Hangouts and received notifications with vibrations. Unfortunately, I was not able to reply from the Gear. I then switched to the Google Messenger App, which received notifications with vibrations and I am able to reply from the watch. There must be a compatibility issue between the LG messaging app and the Gear. I will try to update the feed if I notice a fix.

Hello,
I've the same issue as you, with a Gear S3 and a LG V20. All notifications trigger vibration except SMS...
The point is that I don't understand your workaround.

Hey, basically I worked around it by downloading a third party messaging app and making that my primary messaging app on the phone. In my case I like the Google messenger app because I can respond on my watch and the notifications come through with vibration.
Good luck!
Kurt
This same issue plagues the default messaging app on the S7 Edge as well. Ironic seeing as it is the same company making the phone and the watch, both are its flagship products, and the integration with the native Samsung messenger app is supposed to actually provide more functionality. Also, it worked with the Gear S2.
Another Samsung QC fail.
Same issue...
Samsung Gear S3 Frontier watch
Samsung Galaxy S7 phone
Samsung Touchwiz launcher
Samsung Messenger app
No vibration with notifications. Very frustrating and disappointing.
I'm having the same problem with my Pixel 2. Has anyone tried doing a factory reset on their watch?

I have a pixel xl 2 and same issue with Android Messages. The vibration worked fine, then all of a sudden stopped about a week ago. I HAVE done a factory reset, doesn't help. When I did, I uninstalled all the gear apps from my phone, then unpaired the watch, factory reset, installed the apps in order, setup as new. Still not working. I have checked everything. All the gear apps, notification settings on the phone and watch, it just. doesn't. work... This is BS... I'm getting REAL sick of Sammy messing this watch up...
I haven't tried a different messaging app. I definitely prefer AM, soooo, I'm not so sure about installing anything else.

Glad I asked before I blew it up. I'm a fan of Android messages too. And I like the way the Gear S3 update has been as far as the work out modes and layout. But I'm not a fan of how they fix one thing and break two more. I've had this thing for over a year now and although it's been fun, I think I'll be looking elsewhere for a replacement when the time comes.

I've had mine for 7 months. It's been in the shop for repair twice and still having the same issue that I sent it in for. But, they won't replace it because since it was in the shop twice within 30 days, it counts as once... Seriously. So, I have to send it in again first. The weather app is broke, and now messaging doesn't vibrate or popup on my watch like it's set to. Yes, I WILL be looking at other smartwatches once some new ones are released (hoping MWC). The problems between the watch and their BS support just aren't worth it. Not for a $350 watch.
I can confirm that both Verizon messages and signal notifications and vibration work on my watch. I switched back just to see if AM would work after, no dice. So, apparently it's just Android messages and Samsung messenger that do not work (so far)? This really needs to be fixed. I miss my AM widget and app. Signal is cool, but doesn't work with my car. Verizon is not bad either, but it has some caveats as well.
So I have a pixel 2 xl was experiencing the same issue.... Watch all of sudden wouldn't vibrate for text. Factory reset watch numerous times... Still no dice. Figured I would try to uninstall the latest update to Android messages and sure enough that fixed it. So try that and see if it works.

I did try that, didn't work for me. I just got an update for it two days ago too. This problem is almost two weeks old. Thanks though. I AM trying it again just to make sure.
Verizon messages stopped working this evening too... What in the actual eff is going on???
Well, I'll be. I tried uninstalling the latest AM update and now it works again! I bet I uninstalled them updated again right away the first time. That makes 2 Google apps that I can't update until they fix problems... Thanks greenlantern5!
Soooo, there is a new update as of yesterday for Android Messages Has anyone taken it to see if it fixes the vibration problem?
I have the same issue. YAATA text messaging vibrates on the watch, but I can't reply from those notifications. Since everything else alerts properly on the watch, it is probably android messaging. I wonder if we could find an old version and see if functionality is restored. I'll post here if I find something.
Edit : I uninstalled android messenger, downloaded and installed android messenger version 2.7.028 from apkmirror.com and back in business. I have nexus 6P which is 64 bit, so downloaded that version... so if you try to install an older version, make sure it is the right one for your phone. Of course I had to turn automatic updates in Play store too.
I am having the same issue. I have used Verizon messages, Pulse, Android Messages and none of those will alert me on my watch. The messages appear on the watch, but it doesn't notify me. The only one that is working for alerting is Textra. I also have the Ring app installed and it doesn't alert me via vibe or sound, even though I see the alerts on the screen. Other apps work just fine, such as pushover and Google calendar. My phone is a Pixel and running the latest OS update.

Uninstall updates for android messages, then go to apk mirror and install android messages version 2.8.040. That is the latest version that works. (I'm on a pixel 2 xl)
I noticed that the Gear Plugin updated recently and now my notifications are working again, even on Android Messages. Has anyone else seen a recovery?

What all did u do? I have no yellow notification indicater anymore-
Check that in settings in watch you tyrned on the yellow indicator.
I have updated and have an lg V20. After S3 feature update my messages app no longer works with messages app on phone. Texts do not alert me and only show up in notifications when swiping right. They do not record in the messages app on the watch. Anyone else have this issue?

No Push notification when app is not running.

Has anyone figured out the solution for notification issue on Mate 9 AL00.
Currently on: B153
Android Authority said today that an update is coming to fix that, but I haven't read that anywhere else.
They said it in the article about Mate 9 issues and how to fix them, also the touchscreen issue.

Notification bug:
The aggressive RAM management and battery optimizations that cause the issue with third party launchers (mentioned above) also results in notifications not coming through. An update to fix this problem is rolling out now, and you should receive it shortly.

I've got the same problem with AL29 B126.
In fact if I don't receive notifications after some hours the system will close automatically the app.

where did you get B183 Im still on B175 in my AL00 and Im able to receive notifications once I locked the apps I want to receive notifications from
I hate being that guy but for the record I have no notification issues.
I've set Facebook, Messenger, WhatsApp, Trigger, etc. to not close on screen lock and after a month of owning it I guess EMUI's learning algorithm got a hang of how I use my device and now it never kills those processes from memory.
I did find that after not using WhatsApp for a couple of months it DID start killing it from memory so it does seem to be constantly evaluating my usage patterns.
I'm on B156.

Hallo, last night I received B182 update , install it , and now everything seems to be solved
I briefly want to describe my experience to help those who are getting crazy with that issue like us .
Got my Mate 9 one week ago and immediately get the bad experience of notification problems (Whatsapp at first, Telegram later. I'm not a Fb user) . Delay of all notifications when the phone were in stand by mode (screen off) after 10 minutes. I've tried ALL that was described in the several forums I searched to solve the issue and that you confirmed: NO WAY to get rid of that
I've noticed that when the function - "app gemella" sorry- "dual app" was on (I use two sim's and whatsapp account) the problem was really big. I tried phone hard reset, reinstall latest version of Whatsapp apk but nothing changed. Yesterday I contacted Huawei service assistance but they were only able to tell me to wait for an upgrade that fix this bug... They even didn't know when the upgrade could sort...
And magically , last night , it came the new MHA-L29C432 B182 . The phone seems to be re-born , very fast and reliable in giving all the notifications I got.. If I think that I was about to sell it...
it was working fine with me on B186 (chinese version) but after fw update to B213 gapps notification and auto sync are acting up, sometimes I got some notifications but not all the time, I re-applied all the settings as described in other forums and still issues is not fix
Update: after reapplying notifications and permissions settings to the apps I want to get notifications, deleting and adding my google accounts, lock them in my phone, complete depleting my phone battery and charge it again..my phone is back to normal again, battery last the usual 2 days under moderate/high usage, notifications and autosync working, not sure but I'm under the impression that after a major update it takes some time to the AI of the phone to get back to what it used to be or maybe I was just lucky, still Mate 9 rocks !!!

Not sure if my issue is the same but I'm losing notifications randomly. I've tried loads of things also from forums but it seems without any lasting success. However after a restart I'm keeping the notifications for the moment and they're not randomly disappearing.
Not sure if this is of any lasting help mind and that they will again start disappearing randomly.
My next step is a factory reset but what a pain that is!
I'm on B182.
Update: so far so good. I now have notifications that are 12hrs old and still visible. I'm wondering that if you make settings changes, they aren't picked up unless you do a restart!?

Now if they will update the Wear app so it's compatible with Android Q...
Well, I don't like the screen staying on while charging with the little charging symbol scrolling around the display after this update! The display only goes off once the watch has a full charge. I can't find any setting to disable this stupid display being always on while charging as I do not use the always on display setting at all anyway. I really hate it when they change the simplest things which make no sense at all. I probably wouldn't mind it that much if it was displaying a number for amount of battery charge instead of a stupid charge symbol. Oh well, they added one annoying thing with this update!
Update non-US watches
Being curious about this update I changes my CSC from PHN to XAR. The update was offered to me (with release notes in Dutch) and successfully installed. Afterwards I changed my CSC back to PHN. All working as expected, but to early to tell something usefull regarding this firmware as it is running for just a few minutes.
If you can't wait for this update for your region, you could try the method mentioned above and update to Tizen 4.0.0.4 and One UI 1.0.
Be careful as usual and remember your watch will be reset.
CSC changed using this guide:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/gear-s3/guide-how-to-change-gear-s3-r760-csc-t3784226
just out of curiosity, did this update fix the sensor not working issue introduced after tizen 3.0.0.2 update?
Try to do it, but nothing works :/

I am not an expert enough to guide you through the whole process, but these were steps I took:
- changed CSC to XAR as described in the post mentioned
- phone resets
- connected watch to phone
- restored backup
- changed CSC back to PHN
- phone resets
- connected watch to phone
- restored backup
- configured some stuff like widget order on my watch and installed some additional watchfaces/apps form the Galaxy Store which were not restored from backup.
- back in business and all working as expected.
Hope it helps.

Just updated my AT&T S3 Frontier to One UI version 1.0, Tizen 4.0.0.4 (R765AUCU2DSD7) - Everything appears to be working fine except for the Alarm App 1.1.56 and Widget. Getting error: "Unable to load data. Tap to retry" when I tap on the Widget and nothing when I click on the App icon. If I set an Alarm on my S9+ the S3 displays/sounds/vibrates the alarm just fine. I just can't set an alarm from the S3. I have restarted the watch and my S9+ is running the latest version of Android Galaxy Wearable. Anyone else experiencing this issue with their Frontier? - I noticed that updates for the Stop Watch and Timer apps were added in the Galaxy store, but not the Alarm app. Maybe there's an Alarm app update in the pipeline.

After this update my Alarm app is showing version 1.2.64 and appears to be working. However, the Galaxy App Store showing the other version 1.1 56 though. Strange...
Installing now
Notifications got slightly changed if I see that correctly. With previous version, multiple whatsapp notifications from different chats only showed the latest one (at least for me).
But now I was able to select between single notification. Maybe someone can check that for themselves.
News Briefing widget does not work for me. Just says could not load, tap to retry but never reloads. Just FYI if anyone cares.

Will test it tomorrow. I used to have display always on almost everyday
Battery life seems much better for me. I installed the update late afternoon, explored the new UI a bit, installed all my apps and now I still have 38% battery in the morning. However, I did reset the device two times - before and after changing the CSC back and I leave the watch in goodnight mode overnight. I'm sure resetting helps avoid certain battery issues.
You are correct...

So yesterday my phone was at 15% by noon after removing it from the charger at 0530. I thought maybe I thought it was on the charger overnight but wasn't. So now today I charged my watch on my drive into work and removed it from the charger at 0730 this morning... But 1330 it was dead! So yesterday was no a fluke it was massive battery drain from the latest update. I do use always on because it's easier for my job but I have never seen drain this past from this watch. I did a master reset to see if that resolves the battery issue. So far it appears to be working because it is draining at a normal rate again.
So far, so good
With AOD, brightness at 7 and heart rate monitoring off it seems to be promising
yeah i am luckily having no issues with the update. all my apps seem fine. it is way more responsive with less lag. battery seems to be about the same although i have only had it since yesterday but comparable so far. i am really liking the new oneui. feels like a new watch.

Question Gw5 pro notifications question?!

my gw5 pro doesnt get notifications when am not using it for few hours(not waking the screen....etc).
am also having another problem notification dont vibrate on the watch although its set to vibrate and i never changed settings!
Have you restarted the watch since making the changes?
I tried setting developer mode a couple times. Said it was active and never showed the option. Restarted watch and there it was.
Same thing happened after I set up Samsung Pay. Held the watch to pay and was getting an error on the card reader. Did a restart of the watch and it worked.

I noticed the notifications does not come thru after recharging the battery and i have to restart to fix the problem so you are right but its very frustrating to keep restarting a 500$ premium smart watch every time there is a glitch or error.
Oh, that is a problem.
My issues worked flawlessly after the initial restart.
Did you get the latest update for the watch and install it? Did that help?
