I have gmail running on my S8 and when I go to clear notifications (or access Gmail notifications via the pull-down) on my phone, suddenly my S3 will get multiple notifications from Gmail. Anyone else running into this issue? I get normal notifications from Gmail fine - just seems to send them again when I clear/access them on the phone.

I'm getting a similar issue with my S7 Edge and the Gear S3. I'll get a notification of having like 10-15 emails via Gmail, then if I try to swipe it away on my S3, I start getting essentially a countdown of email notifications all the way down to zero, with it vibrating or sounding with each one.
I have this same issue...did either of you get it figured out?

Just installed froyo 2.2 on my captivate and now my email notifications disappear. This is occurring with both pop3 and imap mail. What I have noticed is that when I get a new email I get the notification and it ill remain until the next time it checks for new mail. Once it does that and there isn't any new mail the notification will disappear. Has anyone else experienced this and do you or anyone else have a solution?
I have the same problem: email notification disappears shortly after email received. Indeed, the notification sound stops playing half way through.
Did you ever resolve your issue, and if so, how?
Thanks.

Mine too does this, but not all the time. Weird. I have found no solution.

I have two yahoo accounts and I got the same problem on kb1. With the yahoo app though it doesn't happen and it uses push notification and just seems faster than the stock email app. The other email apps might do the same thing, its worth a shot.
I'm having the same problem since the 2.2 update. No solution found yet.

Same problem here. Only happens with the regular mail app configured to use an exchange account, and doesn't happen every time. Gmail app works fine.
I have the same problem.
I have my work exchange email configured through the email app. When an email arrives, the sound plays half way through and the notification goes away.
It's really annoying, because now I can't trust the notification bar. I have to actually open the email app to see if I have a new email.... Which completely defeats the purpose of the notification bar.
Has anyone here been able to get Gmail notifications to work? I can get the native Samsung email to work sending to my Gear S2, but the Gmail does not work for some reason. I made sure Gmail is turned on/check marked in notifications. Is there something I'm missing?
Works fine for me. I wish there was a Gmail app so we could read emails like the Samsung email app, but the notifications appear on the notification screen. I have a S6 edge+.
Do you have notifications turned on in the Gmail app on your phone? Also I started a thread to make note that on my Nexus 5, I have to have the vibration setting turned on in Gmail notifications on my phone for my S2 to vibrate. I believe that is a bug that Samsung needs to address, as I don't want my phone to vibrate, but I have to to get my S2 to vibrate.
Yes notifications are turned on in the app. I just did a few tests. If Gmail notifications are off on the phone then the watch will not notify either. This is not surprising as it is the phone notification that triggers the watch. However if I turn off vibrate on the phone my watch still vibrates when receiving the notification.

are you using a Samsung phone? I'm using a Nexus, and S2 won't vibrate unless vibrate for Gmail is turned on on phone.

Yes, S6 Edge+. Just tried it again and it definitely vibrates even when phone does not.

Thanks. Seems like a bug for Non-Samsung phones.

It's not, I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 (not edge, not +) and I'm having this same problem where it only vibrates if vibrate is turned on for my phone too. My other email app (cloudmagic, for a different email account) doesn't have this problem. I had a gear fit for the past year and never had this issue... I don't know why it's messed up here. Has anyone figured out a way to fix this yet?
*edit* turns out this isn't just a gmail problem, just figured out that it's an issue for snapchat too. Still not an issue for cloudmagic though...
If you are using a Samsung device, and the devices screen is active then you will NOT receive notifications because it assumes you are looking at your phone and hence don't need the watch. Turn the devices screen off and test, your watch will then vibrate with a notification.
I've been trying to get this to work for days and I can't get it. I really hate the samsung stock messges app, and have always used textra. However since getting the gear s2, I've been unable to get textra notifications to show on my watch. I have the notifications set on the gear app for textra and it's set to the default messaging app... any ideas as to why it won't give me the notifications on my watch?
That's weird, do you get other notifications? Does the gear app have access to notifications in your phone settings? I use textra on a non-samsung phone and it works fine.

I have no problem with Textra and my watch, it works great all features are implemented. I assume you have Textra notifications showing on your phone. I am not using a Samsung phone, might be something TouchWiz is doing to interfere. I think the Textra team is very responsive, you may want to send them an email.
Not too helpful, I know but it is the best I can do.

Anyone else have this issue? When receiving an SMS message, I will get the pop up notification and sound, but then the notification will disappear as if it has been dismissed. The message will still be unread in the Messaging app, but there will be no notification either on the phone or on my Android Wear device. Strange.
Same here. Anybody find a fix? Driving me crazy
There's an option in settings to check notification access.. probably you can review the applications there or check the notification settings for messages app.. Maybe an alternate messages app is overriding it

I haven't found anything amiss in the notification settings.
My hangouts won't notify me like it used to (on Silent, but with LED), and I've been missing text messages/gmail as well. When I turn on the lockscreen voila! all the crap you've missed. I've flipped every setting known to man. Cleared my cache from recovery. In my frustration, it seems like the only thing left is to drop this brick out the window and get something that isn't messed up by the carrier every other firmware.
Nougat sucks for me. I had to download a samsung theme, to replace the crap they did with it. I am honestly surprised that there are so few people complaining.
Strange. I never have issues with Hangouts. It's only the Samsung Messages app that self-dismisses notifications. I've tried just using Google's Android Messages or whatever they are calling it these days and I actually like it better. Unfortunately, I frequently utilize WiFi Calling/SMS and Digits for a second line and the stock Samsung app is the only text messaging I've found app that does both. This T-Mobile integration is the same reason I switched back to Samsung from my Xperia XZ and why my next phone will probably be Samsung again unless theses features ever become usable on an unlocked phone.
Okay, slightly different problem, but weird and perplexing. Running U firmware on an AT&T A. Stock Email app on mobile data only will show a badge notification for new mail, but no notification sound or light flashing. On WIFI everything works as it should. On AT&T firmware it works fine as well either way. Hmm...
As the title describes, although I am using a Pixel 2 rather than a samsung phone. Gmail notifications will not vibrate on the watch but will show notifications dots, etc. Other apps' notifications will vibrate properly, even the Google Inbox app. I figured this could be something widely discussed as most people use Gmail, but searching in the forums didn't really show a lot of results. I am wondering if anyone has encountered the same problem and is there a fix to it. Gmail notifications come through, but just won't vibrate the watch

I also found out that this is a android thing as well, I have an iphone laying around and will work just fine with the gear, vibrations and notifications.
Same here
I'm also getting this issue with Gmail only(email comes to watch but no vibration to let me know if phone isn't nearby), has anyone found a solution? For my text messages I found that enabling Textra, and the default Android messages made that now vibrate when I receive a notification. But I can't find any default Android mail on the app list?
Same problem here. S3 Frontier with a Pixel 2 XL. Knowing that Inbox (Outlook works as well) works helps, but I'd like to use Gmail since it gives the full email to my wrist.
EDIT:
Just noticed that Hangouts messages don't vibrate or make sounds either. Anyone else found other apps? I'm wondering if it's a Google thing, though Inbox working would argue against that...
EDIT AGAIN:
Hangouts message just vibrated. It's definitely consistent with Gmail, but now I'm wondering if there's some random element to this. Or if I'm just going crazy. lol
Hello. Same problem here with my Samsung Gear Sport and Oneplus 3T. It's driving me crazy. I haven't tested the Inbox app yet, but I installed Outlook as an alternative to Gmail (which I didn't uninstall). I received one vibration for one first mail via Outlook and then it stopped as well, no vibrations anymore for incoming mails. I have verified all my settings in the Gear app and in the Gmail, Outlook app. My phone is getting the notifications (sound, vibration, icon on top), but on the watch I only have a pop-up of the mail and the small dot on the watch face, but no vibrations. Vibrations work fine with the calendar and the step counter.
My Gear recently (I'm not sure for how long really) stopped giving ANY notifications at all. I've checked all the setting in both the Gear app and Oreo to no avail. It's not much of a Smartwatch if it won't do notifications at all. That's half the reason I bought it (HR monitoring is the other 50%).
I had the same problem with Gmail on my Sport 3. I also use TypeApp as my default email client on phone linked to Gmail. If you allow notifications for this app on the phone (in settings>notifications), then allow notifications in Gear you will get vibrations for all email received. Its not quite as fast at receiving email as the native Gmail client, but it does work. I don't have any other notification issues other than the Gmail one.
I use Inbox (by Google) to receive Gmail emails, instead of Gmail itself. The notifications work for me.

I also have the same problem using my Honor View 10 with my GS3.
When receiving GMAIL new email, the message shows directly on screen without making my watch ring or vibrate.
Using Inbox solves the issue but :
- messages are truncated : only few lines are displayed, there are less options.
- Inbox notifications on my phone (android 8.0) are different : it only shows an small icon on the upper notification bar whereas gmail shows a full popup with message and action buttons. So using Inbox is not good for me
If anyone has a full workaround, please get my thanks in advance.
I have been having this issue since I went on the beta Oreo on my S8. I thought it was an issue with that and I am hoping once the official Oreo comes my notification vibrations will return. After reading this I am now not so sure.
Definitely a problem within Oreo. No vibration on Gear for gmail for me and also not for Viber, though reverting to older Viber helped but I noticed differences in notification options between older and newer Viber. My guess is that Oreo tries to manage notifications differently for some apps that allow it to and this messes up the Gear notification somehow.
Same here. Was working fine with Note 8, switched to Pixel 2 XL and now I'm not getting vibrations for Gmail notifications. Everything else appears to be notifying correctly.
Similar issue for me
I have the original Pixel XL and everything has been working fine for 3 months. Then about 3-5 days ago I started not getting notification sounds or vibrations on my Gear s3 frontier for gmail or text messages. I have tried resetting both the phone and gear multiple times and starting over completely and it doesn't work. Pretty useless when those two are the most important to me.
Try uninstalling updates for the app. Worked for me with android messages for the exact same problem. It's the only thing that worked actually. Hope this helps!
Seems to be related to native Google apps running on Oreo devices. I noticed that my Google Assistant Reminders also don't vibrate on my watch but Google Hangouts is OK - so hit or miss. I use Textra for SMS so no issues with that.
Same here. Since I updated to Oreo gmail vibration stop working. Galaxy s8 + Frontier
Same thing here, I updated my S8 to oreo and gmail nots don't vibrate. I realized that from time to time incoming calls neither. Even some kind of reminders do the same. Before updating the phone everything was running ok...
I'm having issues with email notifications from the stock Sammy mail app not showing on my Gear....
It's not even listed in the Gear app.
Tried reinstalling the app and resetted the watch.
This issue appeared when I resetted my phone after flashing oreo.
Any suggestions?

Gear S update resolved Gmail notifications for me.
