Textra and Gear S3 with Huawei P9

Hello everyone =)
I was using Google Messenger with my Gear s3, but I had some problems with MMS not being downloaded to my phone.
So i tried Textra and was surprised how smooth and good looking it is, and it is able to show me history of my conversion when I receive a text and also show pictures of received MMS messages
My only problem is that i am not able to get any sound on my watch when i receive a message from Textra, other stuff like e-mail is working.
My phone is on mute, so when i turn on the sound on my phone I also get a sound on my watch when receiving a Textra message.
Any ideas? =)

Unable to Receive Text Notifications On Huawei Watch

I'm having a really weird problem right now. My Huawei Watch 1 was working perfectly before I upgraded my phone to the Galaxy Note 8 from the S8+ I reset the watch and notifications for text messages stopped working and Android messages won't load to the watch. At first I was getting text messages, but now it's not showing them at all. I checked the version after a factory data reset and I have the newest software installed. The other problem is that Android Messages won't install on the watch because the current version of it isn't compatible with the watch. I'm getting notifications for something else and full notification access is being given to Android Wear and Huawei Services. I haven't been able to send messages via other apps like Wear Messenger which works temporarily but then fails.
Has anyone had this issue and is there a solution? I haven't been able to find an answer anywhere for this.

Having the same issue. Installed "Feel The Wear" app and am now getting a notification, but the message itself doesn't appear on my phone.

Outgoing SMS Not Showing In Thread When Sent From MightyText/Pushbullet/MySMS

I just got this phone a few days and ago and it's working great except for one issue. I use apps like MightyText/Pushbullet/MySMS to send texts from my PC. These apps all worked fine on my last phone but not on the Honor 6X. I verified that the messages go out and the other person receives the text I send (and all of the apps say that the message has been sent), but the outgoing message does not show up in the conversation thread in my messages app. I've looked in both the stock app as well as my preferred app (Textra) but they aren't there.
At first I thought it was an issue with MySMS (my primary remote SMS app) but I installed and tried MightyText and Pushbullet as well, and all of them send the message successfully but none have the outgoing SMS show up, so I'm thinking this is an issue with phone. Not sure if it has anything to do with it being a dual Sim.
Does anyone know what's going on?

FWIW, I've kinda solved my own problem. Looks like messages will only show up as sent messages if they are sent through the default SMS application. I set MySMS to be the default SMS app and now outgoing messages are showing up. This isn't ideal because I prefer Textra, but I found an SMS app called Pulse that does the same thing and I like the SMS app more than MySMS. It's cheaper than the other options too. It's not a perfect solution but it will work for now.
Still not sure why this is an issue with the Honor 6X and not my last phone (Moto G4 Plus)

Can't reply to texts on watch.

So I just got the S3 Frontier yesterday, set it up and began using. Everything seems to be working great except one feature. Text messaging. I get the notification just fine, but every time I try to reply, nothing happens. It says that it sent, but if I open the app on my phone, it did not send. It won't even let me initiate a text message from the contacts screen either. Which is weird because yesterday that worked fine. I'm using the watch with a LG V30 and the stock LG messaging app.

Messaging don't play well with non samsung messaging app but you can try out pulse.

Question Messages on watch

Anyone got any tips on getting message notifications on the GW4? I am using it with a Pixel 4a5g. I currently have loaded the updated Google messages app on phone and watch. I have enabled notifications everywhere I can find for the app. I can open the watch app and read all my messages, but I can't get any watch notifications. On my GWA2, using Next, I was able to get the notifications and the message would pop up on my watch and let me read it. On the GW4 I have to open the app to read it. I am also open to any other messaging apps that others have found that work.
Update, I did get Next SMS to work, but I wonder if anyone has had any luck with VZW messages or Google messages?

You have to make Google Messages to the default text message app on phone to get notifications from it, and you can only use Google Messages for writing SMS after that.

The first thing I did was make Google Messages the default SMS... as a matter of fact, you can't even bring it up on the phone unless you do that. I know Google is just starting to roll out a new version of messages for using with watches, I don't know how to tell if I have that version or what that version number is, so I guess I will use Next for awhile longer and see.

This feels like a Gear app permissions issue. Check that the gear app on your Phone has permissions to read messages. Also it might be under device admin setting or something like that

I assume you mean the Galaxy Wear app, it does have SMS permissions enabled (actually all permissions enabled).
Note, as I said above, it works like a champ with Next SMS, so I think everything is enabled that needs to be. The difference would have to be with the messaging app itself.

You can also check settings on the watch itself. Settings/Applications/Permissions then scroll to Messages and allow everything one by one.
