Still can't view Google Hangout messages on gear - Samsung Galaxy Gear

Even after the update today...I can't view Google Hangout notifications on my gear....omg

After the update, did you enable the additional notifications in the gear manager? if you click on notifications, at the bottom there is a 'more notifications' toggle, which then allows you to have any app installed (that would normall have notifications in your task bar) send their notifications to the gear.
This worked for me. I can read the messages from hangouts without any issue at all. I also have facebook notifications and such shown on the watch as well.

I'm having the same issue I'm on wicked v9 now with a samsung galaxy s4 for t-mobile and I don't see a "more notifications" tab anywhere just a notification tab. It has hangout on it but it only opens the app on the phone.

Yep mine is the same as Ragnarkov. ..don't have more notifications. ..maybe I have to wait for another update

The latest version available to me on the Samsung App Store. Both Note 3 and Gear are full stock, no rooting.
Attached screen caps of how it shows up on my phone. Not sure if it would be different on a different carrier variant, different roms, or different phones etc.

I am actually shocked. I honestly thought software-wise (with any OTA/Kies updates) we recieved them at the same time. I usually check for availability with AT&T or another american provider because the ones here in Canada are TERRIBLE at giving out updated information.
Sorry I couldn't be of help

Are you running an alternate rom on your note 3? Or are you using an s4 or note 2 perhaps? I'm using a stock, fully updated note 3 here in Canada (bought on and sold by bell) with a fully updated gear directly from samsung brick and mortar store.
I still am stumped. I could have sworn American providers got all software updates at same time as, or earlier than, Canadian providers.
I have heard that you needed all software/firmware updated in order for all notifications to show and work. If your gear manager is same version as mine, is your gear firmware same as well?
I attached a picture of my firmware on the gear to compare. The end part I'd the most important, the MK7 part. That's the latest firmware from what I know available to everyone in North america, or so I've been lead to believe.

TO HELP US :
activate patern on the galaxy gear
on your phone
FOR HANGOUT ONLY :
remove any SMS software (Go SMS, and others)
Because it was the problem for me... (but i will give you a solution after)
activate hangout SMS
Go to options, SMS, and activate Notifications and Vibrate
On the gear manager, go to Notification, more, and check "Hangout"
Go to Hangout, send a message to your own phone number to test it, and wait 1 or 2 minutes to validate if it's okay
FOR GO SMS :
Go to Hangout (if you have) and uncheck the SMS option
Go to GO SMS, settings, "advanced", and UNCHECK other SMS softwares in the section "other settings"
return in "settings", go to "notifications" , check "enable notifications"
go to "defaut notification settings" , and uncheck "vibrate"
Now you can use GO SMS on your phone and receive the notifications from the stock SMS software on your gear
The only one problem is you will receive 2 notifications on your phone, (but only one vibration)
Sorry if the paths and names are not the same in english for you, because my phone is set in French...

Gear not showing notifications

Hi all,
Just purchased a Gear to go with my S4, it does not seem to be receiving any notifications, email etc.
Can anyone help please, is there a step by step idiots guide out there
Thanks
Have you installed the gear manager?
Enviado desde mi SM-N9005 mediante Tapatalk
1. install gear manager. You can find it on samsung.com or in the samsung apps on your s4
2. try to connect the gear
3. ones connected, look if all the notifications are enabled in gear manager on your s4.
4. If 1-3 is done, and still no notifications, your phone or your gear has a problem. But i think, it will not be the case.
And make sure that your screen is off when the notification comes in or it won't go through to the gear

Gear Manager Update 1.5.120902

Hey all. Got an auto update to gear manager ver. 1.5.120902 about an hour ago. Been looking through it but haven't noticed anything different. Anyone else notice anything?

Strange.. I can only see version 1.5 120601 in the store

I am in U.S.A. Las Vegas and just upgraded, but also see number 1.5.120601. I had switched to the UK firmware to get my notifications working, could it be I am still on a UK firmware and the OP is the U.S. one now?

I just updated the Gear Manager to 1.5.120601, and tested the original Note 3 email app with my Exchange Account, and it is sending Notifications now to the Gear with subject and text! I had installed the other email app 4.4(?) and had it working, but it would repeat notifications and stack 2 or 3 together if they came in close to the same time. I am not sure on the original email if there are any issues, but the test I sent myself came through perfectly. Will update tomorrow after I see if all holds up without dups or stacking.

I got it right off the phone's Samsung App store. Search for Gear Manager. Good luck. I am hopeful all works as it was intended now.
If you're running null ROM upgrade with caution - it'll wipe most customizations and you'll need to resync and reinstall them (just like when you change between multiple phones).

Can anyone confirm that they still have root after updating the Gear Manager?
I am on Verizon and got the fix they just released for Android 4.3. After the fix update my S4 downloaded the new gear manager (1.5.120601). I have been using the UK version of MK7 to get the extended notifications but had the broken Crporate Exchange email problem with the stock email. The new Gear Manager seems to have addressed this issue. I have been receiving exchange email notification on the Gear again and they include the email body.
It doesnt appear that I received an update to the firmware on the Gear (still UK version of MK7 that I loaded via Odin). Will post back more after I get a chance to look deeper into the new gear manager.
Please there is any place where i can read the change log of Gear Manager?

Similar setup here. Now getting the first few lines of my corporate exchange email when previously I received the 'must read this on your device' message. AT&T Note 2 (leaked stock 4.3) and UK MK7. Only change made was an update this version of Gear Manager.
I just updated looks like the ui is changed a little and you do lose the pictures and name of contact that show when you receive a call.. I just rolled mine back.
My Note 3 cannot connect after update!
I just updated to 1.5.120601, it did a software update on my Gear too. But i was already in UAMK7. It wiped all my data too. Had to do it, otherwise it didn't want to pair my Gear with S4.

Reliable Notifications for Non-Samsung Devices

I've finally figured a way to get good looking functional notifications for the Gear using a Moto X.
1. Install NotiSync on both devices. Set your phone as primary and Gear as secondary
2. Install NotifierPro Free on your Gear. Enable notification accessibility in Gear settings.
3. Make sure NotiSync is checked off in NotifierPro Settings.
4. Set up custom profiles on NotiSync on your phone for all apps you want notifications sent to the gear.
5. NotifierPro Free, set position below status bar and make sure wake on notification is on.
This has worked very well for me. It presents a drop down translucent banner for my notifications and seems to be very reliable.
Setup:
NotiSync -> Phone
NotiSync + NotifierPro Free -> Gear
Tell NotifierPro to show NotiSync notifications.

I had this same issue on the Gear 2 Neo and the updated templates did not push to the watch until I modified ALL of the templates. Initially, I only wanted to edit a few of them and nothing changed on my watch...even after restarts. After going back to edit the others as well, the watch was immediately refreshed with the new templates (with no restart or any further action). Odd, but it is what it is.

Fleksy tips

Hello all,
Just playing around with the new version of Fleksy, and I found that if you are at the end of a word and you swipe down (or up) on the keyboard it will cycle between different words that are similar.
If you insert a period, and then swipe down (or up) it will cycle through punctuation marks!
Is there a known reason why I cannot get Fleksy to actually install on my gear. It downloads to my phone but not to the gear

Do other apps install ok?
Make sure you are logged into your Samsung account (and the account service is up-to-date). To log in, open the app store and touch the "Menu" in the top left. If you are logged in, you will see your login ID at the top of the menu. If you are not logged in, you should see a link that will allow you to do so.
I had the same install issue, however, my problem was that I had deleted some Samsung services (i.e. Samsung Account, etc) that were needed in the Gear app install process. Reinstalling those services fixed it.
This is a great hint! I was wondering how I could change auto complete words.

While using the Note 4 and hunting for Flesky in the app store I dont see it. When I use my wifes S5 I see it.....
Contacted Flesky and they said it will be available with next update. Note 4 isnt supported at the moment.
at least they told you SOMETHING. when I contacted them they said it was all on Samsung. Typical "pass the buck" shenanigans
I'm not sure if it's because I had a gear 2 and then went to gear neo but fleksy we in my previously installed list and works with my note 4
