Dismissing Text Messages - S3 vs S2 - Samsung Gear S3

I hope I can explain this well enough for someone to understand, so here it goes.
When using the S2, I could swipe up to dismiss a text message and then I would look on my V20 and the message would show as being read.
Now.....when using the S3 the message on the phone still shows as unread. I can even reply to a text from the watch, but the phone still shows unread.
Basically I want both the watch and the phone to mirror one another.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I have notice the same thing I hope someone can explain why this is happening and come up with a solution

I'm not using the stock messenger, I'm using Textra. But I'm guessing they work the same.
I believe it's the difference between dismissing the notification (and/or replying from within the notification), and going in and reading and/or replying down in the actual message. Almost like layers. But it confused me at first, because the notification can "preview" the message with... the message! (Toggle "Always show details" in the notification settings)
Try tapping "Read more" before replying. Weird thing is, seems like you still have to go back and swipe away the notification after replying...

Text messages do not show up in "All Messages"

I just got an HTC Fuze yesterday with AT&T and I haven't flashed it yet but I was wondering if this was a 'problem' with this Raphael phone in general.
The problem I am having is that when in TF3D and I scroll to text messages, I see 6/6 for text messages that I have received. However, when I click on the "All Messages" tab on the bottom left, it brings me to Inbox where I only see 1 Conversation with just one recipient (the one I have replied to). The other 5 messages are nowhere to be found in there unless i get back out to the TF3D main message.
It is even worse when I slide out the keyboard to enter the other mode. I can't see any of the 6 messages in my Inbox. Is this a bug or something wrong with my settings? Are the rest of you guys able to see ALL of your text messages when you guys are in your Inbox?
Can you please let me know if this is working as intended? Or if I have a faulty phone?
Surely someone can just state whether or not they can see all their text messages when they click on "All Messages" on the Messages tab on their phone....
please? =P
It should be thatyou see every single message (sent and recieved) in your all messages view. Your situation is strange, unfortunately I can't tell you what to do. You might wanna try a hard reset, but beaware that it will erase all your data.
Hard reset fixed it. Thanks for the heads up!
I had the same exact issue when my friend told me to install this Diamond Tweak program. It has a lot of tweaks in it that I want but it has screwed up my texting so I can't afford that. A fix for this would be awesome if someone knows what's going on.

Text Message Threading Issue on new Rom

So I was able to update my rom to the new 5.11.502.2 rom for the HTC Fuze on At&t. I have been enjoying the update, and it seems like the reception is improved.
But I did run into a problem....iono if someone could verify if this is correct or not. So when ever i send a mass text, i would only get one thread for the message and not for each other person i sent the mass text to. With the original stock rom, whenever you send a mass text, a thread conversation starts for each person you sent the mass text to.
i think everything about the text messages in the update is buggy. when i get a text and then reply but still stay inside the thread, my text message icon in the status bar stays there and then when i get more than one text from the same person and then go back to the message list it says there there is still unread messages even though i already replied to them.
That's been an issue for forever.
Nah, this is different. In the stock ROM, it used to automatically show the message was read, just by opening it. Now I have to scroll up to the message to show I've read it.
Sure, it's not that much of a hassle by itself, but when you text as much as I do, pressing the up botton a few times and then bringing it back down, just so the notifications go away, becomes a daunting task.
It's almost depressing.
Not in this way though... it used to be that I could just open the message, and it would register that it was read. Now, I have to manually scroll up to show I've read it.
It's not a huge problem, unless you text as much as I do. It's a major nuisance. Is there a registry tweak we can change to mark it as read upon opening? NOT having to scroll to the message itself, in the thread?

[Q] New text messages dissappear. I am going crazy.

Ok, so I get a new text message.
I turn on the phone, notice in the lockscreen someone texted, and see an excerpt of the text. I say, ok, lets slide that messaging icon into the ring and read that message. Well, that message is not there. No message at all from that person. If its someone ive been talking to, it usually shows what i said last only, and their reply is no where to be found, although i just saw it in the lockscreen or the top bar.
I have also tried the handcent sms app to see if it could help me. same thing occurs there too.
ANY idea what could be causing this? It seems to be doing it all the time now. My only way around it is to use google voice only. ugh.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
What's the limit you have set for deleting texts after a certain period? Might have something to do with that.
I have this bookmarked from the xda portal. It may be relevant

yeah, ive been using it, but its still a hassle. My txts were coming through just fine the day i got it, then it got wierd afer 48hrs of use.
Thanks for the help, Ill keep looking as well for an answer.
I am a very similar issue, at first I thought I was missing text messages as well.
I got a few keywords from my friend who sent the missing text and when I did a search, the text was there, but they had the wrong time stamp.
For instance missing text was sent at 17:44, when I search I found the text stamped and threaded in as if it was received at 12:40.
The wrong time is variable, I have found other texts that was stamped received the previous day.
Unfortunately I don't have a solution, and quite frankly am getting really frustrated with this problem.

Removing notifications after seeing them on watch

Hey all!
I use watchit to display my notifications from my phone to my smartwatch..
i just wanted to ask, is there a way to make it act this way.
This way being:
. For example, when someone sends me a whatsapp message, usually, it displays a whatsapp icon at the top of my phone. With my phone, it still does that as well as watchit sending a notification to my phone.
Is there a way, so when i SEE the notification on my SMARTWATCh, it will clear the notification on my PHONE so they don't appear at the top. Kinda like, mark as read via smartwatch!
I hope i made sense
Thanks in advance

If only !!
I would like this too ... but even worse is the reverse. if you have a few messages on your phone the notifications build up on your watch and there is no easy way to dismiss all notifications .. you have to manually read (or swipe as fast as you can) every message in the list ... very pre-historic and should be addressed !!

Or go into the particular extension in smartwatch app, and clear all....
Awww lol
I was hoping for an app or something.
Guess we gotta wait till Sony patches it or something!

No one shows how it works.

I searched youtube high and low. But no one actually really shows how the edge works for things like notifications. The main things I want to know is how it looks or acts or works when someone sends a text message. Or in my case more importantly a KIK message. My partner and I use KIK to communicate all the time instead of text messaging. Does it pop up on the edge? Or does it only show at the normal top of the phone needing the whole screen turned on? If it shows up on the edge does it just say new kik message? Or does it show the message from the person?

I have a note edge G version.
To answer your questions YES , you get the message itself on the edge screen because of which i actually disabled the Heads Up display. If i get a message in Whatsapp and say i am in the homescreen, the senders name and the message first few lines only, is shown. This works on most apps but I have noticed that only the first few lines are shown and then a series of periods..
To get message on the edge screen while the phone is locked, you can search RuggedAutoHunter here in the forum. He has developed an app that can show you messages even if the phone is not unlocked. Pretty neat.
Hope it helps.

Thanks, And I clicked the thanks button lol. I'll search that. Is there a way to turn off showing the first few lines of the message? Some times I have to set my phone down in public at a job site and wouldn't want someone walking by while my partner sends me a sensitive message and seeing what she says. I mean I'd still like to see new kik message received or new text message received etc on the edge while the screen is off. But don't want private information to be seen by anyone and everyone lol. Thanks again

That's a question you have to ask RuggedAutoHunter because that would only apply when you have the screen off/phone locked.
