Not receiving text notifications - Samsung Galaxy Gear

Everything is working as it should, except my text notifications aren't showing up on my gear...I've checked the notification settings in gear manager unpaired and re-paired the gear with my note and still nothing...any ideas? My gear is completely stock, and I'm using a rooted note 2 running the Verizon 4.3 OTA leaked ROM.

I had the same problem after updating my S4 but after reseting my S4 this problem vanished.

I figured out the problem was that I didn't have a lock screen enabled...apparently the gear doesn't like when there's no lock screen so I had to enable the "swipe" screen lock.

That's right.
The Notification will only be pushed to your Gear when your phone screen is locked .
It does make sense.

To enable Notification on Gear for Google Now, I should tick the Google Search?
Am I right?

Hi
Could anyone help me receive messages on my gear from my note 3?
I did all settings in gear manager on note 3. I could receive all ( calls, emails etc) but no messages.
Is there any other setting I must do before?
Thx a lot

Sometimes not that easy. I've had messages checked under notifications in settings. And I haven't received 1 SMS notification since day one. I only use stock SMS app.
Kinda. Annoying
And kinda gave up awhile ago. Just like my svoice won't work. Tried everything. Can't find others with issue.

if your screen is on, the sms won't go to the watch. You need to either check if there are wakelocks or install modded message apk (search in this forum) that doesn't turn screen on when you receive a message

Notification setting on Gear Manager

Hi, just want to check if anyone had any issues with the notification switch on their Gear Manager app on the phone.
My notification tab will refuse to be enabled after I switch off my Galaxy gear to charge and later restart it again. I have to go through a reset to enable the notification switch again.
Anyone can please advise? Thanks

I'm suspecting it is the rooting before the update that causes this but I'm not sure.I will try to unroot and see what happens.

I checked with Samsung here and it seems it's a common issue and will be fixed with the next update.

I haven't noticed any changes. Upgrading didn't involve any drama for the first time though. Also, MarketWatch was added to the "apps" section. Interestingly, MarketWatch is the first app I've seen that doesn't require a companion app on the host device to work.
Looks like they just added a new clock image and finance app

What clock image?
I got MoWeather app in Utilities, Marketwatch in finance. Did you notice they have opened up pretty much all categories in samsung apps, though only a few do have apps now. Keeping my fingers crossed for a BIG update sometime soon with all the promised apps
I dont see any added clock image. Its still the same as the first gear manager release.

I hit restore and I didnt lose any apps.
This update still didn't fix the Feedly removal .
I lost all side loaded apks with the update
It also modified the filesystem, deleted any folders that weren't there to begin with, so any apks that I had on the phone in any additional folders got deleted
I can't connect the Gear Manager to the GEAR after the update... do I have to clear the data of the gear manager app?

You might need to "restart" the phone/gear or both at times after an update.
reboot has the same issue. if does not work connect manually and do restore when prompted

lucky I had a nandroid, on null_15 the update wiped my data then connected fine... just restored data and I'm back in the game

Last update someone said if you're running null ROM to judge do a Nandroid before updating, then restore /data only after the upgrade and it chugs along fine.

Not reciveing sms notifications aswell as others!

As the title states I'm not reciveing sms notifications aswell as some other apps like xda and such. I restarted my gear and phone still nothing tried unchecking it and checking it from the gear manager app and Nada any help will be appreciated gear isn't rooted

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.

Rooted Samsung Galaxy Gear Notifications

Thinking about rooting my samsung galaxy gear, but wanted to know if I plan to root it and flash a custom rom will I still be able to receive notifications? Ive been told if you flash a rom you will not be able to receive notifications because you will no longer be able to add gear manager. Someone please give me your input

not true - got mine rooted and running null - getting notifications - on top of that, if you use atooma you can make your gear smarter. I have it setup so i get notification whenever i get an email, when there is rain forecasted in the weather (i bike to work) and many other things

You need gear manager for phone to communicate fully with watch. Otherwise it's just a fancy Bluetooth headset
