Hello guys!
I've been on the first Galaxy watch for over 3 years and recently got the Watch4 classic. 1 main issue I notice is when there's an incoming notification (regardless you set it to open or not), as long as its seen on your watch, if you do not swipe it away, it stays there and your watch face turns into a simple one with blurred background. It stays there for about 20secs before it switches over to your proper watchface.
Why does it do this? The previous tizen didn't work this way. Is there a way to remove this or shorten this timeout?
I hope ya guys understand what I'm referring to. Thanks for reading
this is so annoying , I cannot resolve it , should be some option to take off digital clock screensaver ?

Hi there,
I'm looking for a way to configure my smartwatch in a way that every notification is shown within the watchface.
I want to be notified by vibration, but without displaying the notification on the screen as explicit fullscreen notification.
Does anybody know if such a configuration is possibly, maybe with third party notification apps or something else?
Thanks

In watch setting there are 3 way to display notification. The last is for just icon notification, no text.

yeah i already found that setting, but it's not what i was intrested in.
The screen is still being activated.
I'am looking for a setting where the "passive mode" of the smartwatch will not be interrupted.
Only the vibration should notify me, the screen should still show the smartface without background light.
Hi
just got my gear s3 frontier and will be using it in standalone mode more often than connecting via bluetooth, problem is in standalone mode there is a "watch" icon on the top part of the face where 12 o'clock is and its messing up the style i want. Is there a way to hide or disable this? Tried in the settings but there is none so maybe someone has made a mod for it.
Thanks!!!
Hi,
I've tried to disable the standalone icon too. But i couldn't.
If somebody solve it, please give us a solution.
Thank you
Up!

I made a thread about this too. It is pretty annoying, I don't see how they think having a white icon plastered over watch faces is a good idea, it is worse you can't disable.
Maybe if we can root it we can go in and at least delete the icon graphic so it doesn't show? I don't know if that would be possible.
Also for those that think there should be an option to shut off watch face icon(s) contact Samsung with a feature request. It probably won't get through but you never know.

The solution is to run in remote connected mode instead of standalone. This does not require carrying a phone with you, only that a phone (logged into your Samsung account) is connected to a Wi-Fi somewhere on the planet. The added benefit is that notifications from the phone (ie. email, Hangouts) can now be passed through to the S3.
The S3 is my primary phone, I no longer carry a smartphone, but I keep one (sans SIM) at home connected to Wi-Fi. It is used exclusively for setup and modifications, downloading apps, and remotely connecting to my watch.
Lastly, on my watch, the standalone icon only appears when the watchface is active. It's not displayed on the AOD watchface. Is your experience different?
tizen 3
after updating your gear to tizen 3 you can remove this icon in this position.
setting => watch faces and styles => status indicator => change it to off
after that the icon is removed.
Thanks man!

Yes! Go into Settings/Watchfaces and Styles/Status Indicator and change that to Off. That'll turn off the icon. Enjoy! Took my half a lifetime to figure that out!
Hi all I've just made the switch again from iOS to Android last Android being a note 3.
Really loving the s8+ such a nice device. One thing I do miss from iOS is whenever I get any notification the screen turns on with the notification and a small preview.
At the minute I keep missing emails as all I get is a icon with no preview on the always on display.
Is there anyway of having all notifications popup and either turn the screen on with the notification (Samsung bubble popup) or have a preview on the AOD
Thanks

Yes there is.... Just turn off AOD and install for free from playstore "glimpse notification".It just do exactly what you want. I had it on s7 edge, Note 7 and now on S8+ and is working perfectly with more less battery consumption from AOD. You will not see any deference in you battery consumptiont. Just activate it, give him all permissions deactivate app notification (you only need notification from all other apps) and from settings choose as white list which apps you want to turn screen on (to show notifications) and click to led notification light to work together, run the test and you are done.
It's working perfect and all the times
Thanks I'll check it out
Just having a play with this and it works well. I do like the always on display though. Will this work with that still enabled?
Thanks

I think that yes it must work...just try it out, but maybe with this 2 activated you will notice deference in battery consumption
So I tried this on my main social apps and they are appearing flawlessly. I hope they are useful.
Please follow the below steps to solve it:
1. Slide upward from the bottom of the screen to bring up the Control Center, hold and press the WhatsApp icon and click Add to white list;
2. Enter i Manager>Power manager>Excessive background battery usage>turn on the switch of WhatsApp;
3. Access i Manager>App manager>Autostart manager>turn on the switch of WhatsApp.
This worked for me with my Samsung Gear Fit2 watch. You have to make sure all of the Samsung apps and plugins associated with the Gear Fit2 are enabled in iManager (iOS hints everywhere... Lol)
Ok uninstalling iManager app notification from all app works excellent now

Notification where? In the lock screen? Notification on the icon? Notifications in the notifications drop down menu?

for example ... when a team scores a goal sound notification late more than 5 minutes and so constantly
So I'm dealing with a slight problem. Honestly could just be something to get used to. I have the India Model (Global Rom), and I deal with a notification issue for my lock screen. I've already done adb and gotten rid of iManager, but I still seems to have an issue with notifications coming through.
This is mostly with Android Messages (I use this as my default). If I leave a notification of a message on my lockscreen for too long, it eventually disappears and indicates on my home screen I no longer have a notification (Using Nova). But when I enter the app of course the message is still there and says unread. Its a small problem, but it can become annoying.
Its as if I leave a notification in the status bar for too long, it eventually disappears and then indicates I no longer have a notification. Is this just a normal thing for an international device? ( I am in the states by the way).
Its a small gripe, because otherwise I still love the device and I'm glad I waited for the India model. Its my daily driver for now.
anyone have problem with whatsapp vibration unable to change into the default/short/long options... no matter which option i chose... the whatsapp vibration will just revert back to the default vibration.... my group msg vibrating like mad instead of the short vibration that I really like for grp chat....
Easiest way to deal with problems on the Vivo Nex= just sell the phone and go with Xiaomi or OnePlus.
Hello everyone!
Is it just me who is really bothered that the display of new messages is constantly overlaid by the default digital clock? A new message comes in an instantly the default digital clock is shown instead of the message. The message is blurred in the background and can only be seen by tapping the display. For what reason do I have a smartwatch that shows me messages, wenn all I can see is alwyas the default clock?
There was the silent hope that this would be fixed after the firmware update, but it's still really annoying and sometimes only makes the clock usable to a very limited extent :-(
AOD and activation with wrist movement is active ... still I often have to tap the display or press the home button to get a proper display again. Annoying when I´m out with the dog and have always to use the hand that holds the leash to see the messages.
I have this happen when running Google Maps. I find it much more convenient (and safer) to glance at the directions on my wrist without having to use the phone. But half the time when I try to check the route, it's covered up by the time. I would really like to have Maps keep displaying until I reach my destination.
