Clock face is not seen - Samsung Gear S3

As of the last update, I noticed that by turning the watch face towards me it no longer goes on and I need to push the button to see the watch face, yet the face goes out when I turn the face in the opposite direction.
Is the unique to my S3 or has this been altered in the update?
Is anyone else having this issue and is there a fix?

You definitely have "wake-up gesture" turned on? (Settings | Device | Wake-up Gesture)

Yes, the gesture is and has been on.

Have you done a factory reset on your watch since the update?

Had a similar problem and found that the "Do not disturb" setting was on. Turn if off and see if it helps.

[SOLVED] How to turn this sound off?

Already done some search but I still can't find the way to turn it of..
Anyone know how to turn this "Page X of X" sound off?

See this video..
That would be pretty annoying if I couldn't turn it off. It's for blind people. You must have turned it on when playing with the settings.
Go to settings, then Accessibility, then talk back, then the switch in the top right corner.

Have you tried to turn off the Whatsapp off under accessibility?
And by the way, S-Voice has nothing to do with the problem here. Its all got to do with some setting under accessibility.

Awesome app, must try! Gravity Screen Off

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.plexnor.gravityscreenofffree
This app uses your phone's motion, gravity, and proximity sensors to automatically turn on and off your screen so that you don't have to press any keys (software or hardware).
For instance, when I put my S4 inside my pocket or holster it to my belt clip, the screen turns off automatically. When I take the phone out, the screen turns on automatically as well.
I've tried a few apps similar to this before but this one just works very well and consistently.
I already installed it on my mom's and wifey's S2s and they love it too~! Just wanted to share the goodness~
Wow it is pretty impressive! Thanks for sharing. .

No problem. I figured there must be others who will find this kind of app convenient to have around. I just love not having to press the home or power button every time I want to turn the screen on.
Any hit on battery performance?

The author of the app said to expect a hit about 5%. I've been using it for 2 days now and I haven't noticed any difference so far. But then, I'm running on the ktoonsez kernel with -50mV, all-around.
Freekin love this app
Thanks for the heads up op! works like a charm, now I've got to get used to not pressing my power key on wake
****'ll Buff Out
Sweet app....I noticed I had to lower the sensitivity while my phone was in my mount while driving. The screen kept coming on.
Nice catch. Love this app.
This is exactly what I was looking for!! Thanks for the find!

Very nice find, bought the pro version right away, this is awesome but does anyone knows if there's something you can do so when you put your phone face up on the table it lock it without waiting 5 secs?

The only time the screen turns off on me when I don't want it to is when I text and I accidentally rest one of my fingers over the proximity sensor by mistake. Otherwise, it's been good. I wish there was a time-delay option for proximity sensor to turn off the screen so an accidental finger covering up the proximity sensor doesn't turn off the screen right away.

I see. It's an extra step but you could pull down the notification menu and pause the app before gaming then turn it back on afterwards. My mom tells me that sometimes when she's watching Netflix, the screen turns off on her. I told her not to cover up the sensor but she just disabled the app.

No. I got 4x for 16 seconds in 12 hours. But for as awesome as this app is I can live with a 5% hit any day!!

Thanks! This fits the bill, the other drivers on the road thanks you too!
According to GSam battery monitor, Gravity Screen Off is responsible for only 0.2% battery drain. I haven't noticed any extra drain because of this app.

Display stays on after a notification received

Hi.
Getting any notification will leave the display on.
Is this known? Fix? Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks
No problems here on stock kernel. Maybe recheck settings -> display -> ambient display. Must be something in you settings.

I'm guessing you have Ambient Display enabled.

Yep, Ambient Display turns your screen on whenever you receive a notification or move the phone.

Slow wake-up on watch

Has anyone noticed that the watch is harder to wake up since the update? Now I really have to move my wrist sharply to get it to light up.
