Using the Samsung email app but also not getting texts

Reminder, if the phone is on, you will not get a notification to the Gear.

Being on different carrier should not matter, I am on Tmobile. Go into the Gear app-settings-notifications, make sure you have that turned on and then hit the word notification to go into submenu and check native email and text apps.
Next, put the phone to sleep, turn it back on, send yourself a text and put phone to sleep right away. Give it about a minute and the text should ring on the phone and in the Gear.

haha you have to turn them on
go to the galaxy gear app on the phone, click settings, click notifications and select messages and mail then hit the thank button for me! haha

Have you checked the notification settings inside the Galaxy Gear Manager program?

Hahahaha they all are on hahaha

Are you sure you have a note 3 and not a Chinese knockoff tote 3

Its directly from Verizon so you never know what scam they have up their sleeve to save a few bucks. I have tried to re pair up the device and same results. Any one have Verizon here?

When you created the gmail account in native email app, did you do manual set up or auto? You may want to delete the account, recreate it by selecting auto after you enter the email address and password. On the next screen, there is a drop down box, select PUSH. Try this, send yourself an email from PC or something, keep the phone asleep and see if you get the notification on the phone followed by notification on Gear. Make sure under the Gear app settings, notifications for email is checked.
Report back if not working.

I receive the text less than a second after my phone gets it. Literally my pocket buzzes and by the time I look down at my watch it vibrates. Then I can read it and reply back with s voice . Not a single problem. I'm in love with both devices.

Yep, and to be honest I didn't do anything special. I'm using the stock messaging app and email. I just took it out of the box and used it.

Usually when there are a lot of contacts got deleted (on PC), it will tell you that "there are multiple changes to contact. Do you want to sync?" or something like that (happen to me once). Did you get that?

I'm having same exact problem. contacts deleted. no gapps no sync just stored on phone and gone. they've been deleted like 10 xs over 4 roms now. also calls get dropped after ringing once or twice periodically. whats up with this phone?

Galaxy gear can't call out? Anyone else with this problem?

Everything else works fine on the watch, but for some reason I can not call out. Every time I try to call out, it ends the call immediately. Anyone else having this problem? Is there something that I need to do to get it to work? It's weird cuz I can receive calls and get text, I can even send out text messages, just can't make calls through the watch.

Reset the Gear and see if that helps. May be a pairing with the Note issue if everything else is working.

There is another reason it might fail, same with any bluetooth device i have used so far with android. If there is no default app for calls ( if you have Skype for example or Google voice and are relying on it prompting you which to use for each call) then it might fail silently too. workaround is to set a default for now. Not ideal though as you loose the option of choosing. (hopefully the gear will get the same choice dialog that the parent phone has)

Did this end up working? I'm having a similar problem. I can make calls from the gear, but once they answer and the screen turns off on the gear I press the power button and it flashes on then off again. The only way to make it work is to immediately tap the top right menu button once the call is answered. Same problem when receiving a call too. Really frustrating when I can't end the call and look like a tool asking the other person to hang up or pulling out my phone to do so lol.

FIXED
Sorry to resurrect only thread yet found the solution. Had the same prob, tried the same things without results.
SOLUTION:
On your phone choose Settings -> Device -> Call -> Call Accessories.
It is called "Outgoing Call conditions", and it allows you to set it up so that you can make calls even if the device is locked.
This worked and hope this helps others who may have the same problem.

Samsung Email app sync gets turned off

Try clearing/resetting the data for that app or email account in settings/application manager.

No you are not the only one. The stock email app is a very poorly written app. I reset, cleared data many times. The same thing. Automatic push will work for the first hour or so, then, never managed to pull emails in a timely manner. I get random push, but when I check the time code, they are anywhere from 30 min to 3 hours late. GMAIL works as it should.
Either switch over to gmail or try K9. Works much better.
Any other comments? I would like to keep using Samsung Email app.

Delete the account or use gmail. It's obviously a problem with the junk app if you have all the options set to where they would go. Also when you post try waiting up to a week until you bump it. People will still see your post.

I know this post is a million years old but I just could not help commenting on it. It is response to post like this that makes the internet such a crappy place to be.
If you do not know the answer, please help find the answer. Even if it is obvious to you, it might not be obvious to us all.
If you do not know the answer, please stop saying, "Oh, its a crap program. Go use something else" It just mean that you don't know the answer and just want to be a troll.
Be more constructive and say, "Oh, its a crap program because..." < INSERT YOUR OPINION ON WHY ITS A CRAP PROGRAM > "...but if you really want to use it, you would need to..." < INSERT INSTRUCTION ON HOW TO RESOLVE ISSUE ASKED BY THE OP >
If you are not part of the solution, you are part of the problem. Everyone has a opinion. Where is your fact to back it up?
In any case, to those that comes here looking for the answer to the OP question:
Hit the <Home> button if not already there.
Hit the <Menu> button.
Select <Setting>.
If you have muti-tab menus in Setting, select <Connections>
Scroll down to <Data usage>, if needed.
Hit the <Menu> button.
Click on <Auto sync data>, to check mark it as on.
Hit the <Home> button, again.
Select the email app and sync.
If that doesn't do it for you, its because the email app is crap

Not getting text messages.

I start the morning off good with messages coming through, but then a few hours in they stop, and it is getting really annoying.... I am on latest gear manager and everything....anyone else have this issue? Or know of a fix?
If I can't consistently get messages to my watch, it is worthless.

I agree, that would make it worthless to me to.
I had problems with text notifications etc at first myself.
It took me a while to realize that for notifications to make it to the watch, I had to be running the stock messaging app (I had been using HandCent for years) & the phone screen had to be off at all times.
I installed the modded version of the stock TW messaging that has a toggle for screen on/off when a message came in. After switching to that (plus using the Samsung email app as opposed to GMAIL), I now get all my gear notifications almost instantly and I love the thing.
I also loaded my custom ringtones to the gear so it will ring a lot louder.

It could I suppose, I have found that absolutely anything that turns the screen on will block the notification from getting through to the watch.
I don't use a lockscreen (I just go straight into the phone from the home screen/power buttons)
I saw a post from someone saying that lock widgets will mess up the gear but I don't know if it's true.
I know mine works perfectly and I'm not updating ANYTHING at this point!!

I am going to possibly buy a gear I just have a quick question l did some googling but could not find a solid answer. ..I see that with the recent update the gear will show notifications from a third party application like evolve sms. ..or go sms...but the question is can I reply to the messages either via voice or by a side loaded keyboard. ..I do not mind to root the thing I just don't really see a point for me to get one if in order for me to reply to a quick text or email I have to take the phone out of my pocket. .. oh yeah in case it matters I have a note 2 tmo version running DN3

No you cant reply to any third party SMS using voice/keyboard.

You should be able to perform the tablet talk paring on stock gear no root needed. Great things await once u jump on board with null. Once you try null you will never go back. If you want go to null's website and sign up for the chat. Some awesome folks there to help you decide. Just click on fomeys signature.
okay thanks i looked at the site and it looks amazing one more question does an app like tablet talk work with third party sms apps like Textra
