The issue is because they updated the gear manager for the phone but not the gear software itself yet for the United States. There are fixes for this in this forum do a search for Official update for the Gear November 15, or look for a header with that in it. Basically the fix is putting the UK or British version of the gear software onto the gear and the notification start working again. You do not even have to route the gear to accomplish this. Sorry I'm too new to know how to post links to those articles but searching you'll find plenty.

Thx

Facebook notification

Just want to ask if facebook notification on gg still doesnt show. I mean I get the notofication but when I clicked it it tells me to view it on my phone. Any work around to have ot viewed on the gg

It shows the contents of the notification for me...
Have you updated the GG firmware and the Gear Manager software on the phone?
Well, notifications only show whatever you see in the notification dropdown of your device
If you are using v1.5+ of gear manager, you can add facebook as an app for notificaitons
Otherwise you have to make do with FBQuickview from the Samsung App store

Look in the thread titled Official update to Gear Nov 15th
If your phone and gear don't find the update. look in the official ROM thread and download and install it manually.
Thanks. Ill look into it.

i think the only way to see pictures is using custom rom on gear, and 3rd party email client.
you won't get pics in your notifications.
That sucks...cause it won't show the email either if it has pics
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Yeah, it's one thing I hope they improve on one day
Wow...if I cant read email,on stock device...its somewhat pointless. Why make a "smart watch" that cant even show pictures
Sent from my GT-P5113 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
It is limited by whatever in displayed in notification you can see in the dropdown list of phone
I don't understand what you are saying..Brendo...how can I get it to display pics from email on my gear

You can't. whatever you see on your phone notification is what you see on the watch

Not sure why but today I spotted getting text notifications. Previously all was fine so not sure why. Hopefully some clever soul will help us both.

Try getting the latest updates for both the gear and manager (via SamsungApps). Worst case scenario if you already have the latest, is reseting the watch and clearing the application data for Gear manager from Settings/General/Application Manager

gear needs to have lock screen enabled on your phone cant be set to none. At least swipe in order for notifications to be pushed, had the same problem fixed mine
Seems to only work with the stock messaging app too. I was using handcent and was wondering why I couldn't get the notifications well I turned off all the notifications on that app and when my phone was in screen lock then I would get them. Email needs to be set auto get mail what ever interval you want not manually. And again in lock screen seems to work for me anyway.

That doesn't help I wiped the data under app managers, gear manager and reseted my gear from the gear itself then gear manager app still nothing I have swipe enabled no 3rd party messaging apps. Again I'm not rooted.

I'm having the same issue.Stock phone and gear.Did all the above steps and still no messaging. You mentioned reinstalling your rom-how did you do that on a stock phone?

Sorry if this is the wrong place for this...

My son and I both have AT&T Note 3's I added the family map service that's on the phone and wanted to know if there's any way the location can be spoofed? I have a feeling he's spoofing his location lol but every location spoofer app I download on my phone shows me it can't be done. Does anyone know if this is true or not and am I being paranoid for no reason? hahaha

That was the first app I checked out. I use to use that long ago on Facebook lol. I tried just about every spoof app and none worked so I think I'm good.

You need to enable mock locations in developer options in order for location spoofers to work.

Yup I did, it spoofs all apps but the AT&T Family Map app and that's what I was hoping for.

Weather doesn't sync

Hi there,
I have a problem with Weather synchronization on my Gear 2 Neo.
Every time I tap to check weather on my Neo, it keeps saying that "Turn on Use current location on mobile device" even though I already checked this on in my Galaxy Note 3.
Does anyone have any issue like this and thank you for your sharing.

Yeah, I'm having a weird thing where it's two days behind. On the 18th, I was showing off my watch to my grandparents. My Grandmother opened the weather app and noticed the date was wrong (said it was the 16th). Just now I checked again (having been reminded), and it's still two days off...
You have to have the stock weather widget on a home screen on your phone for the weather to sync to the watch properly. I had the same problem and putting that widget on a screen fixed it.
