Has anyone been able to get text messaging through Uconnect to work? I have an 8.4 and the option is disabled because the phone isn't compatible. I beleive it needs the MAP Bluetooth profile which this phone has. I do have text messaging enabled through the Bluetooth settings on the phone.

I've got a HP Touchpad and a recent update has enabled pairing with any phone over Bluetooth. One of the features enabled is that you can send & receive text messages on the Touchpad but only if it allows Bluetooth Messaging Access Profile (MAP). Does the HD2 have this feature because I can't seem to find it in the bluetooth settings.

You can now pair a phone that is not a webOS phone to the TouchPad, so you can answer calls on the TouchPad.
NOTE: Most devices cannot send or receive SMS (text messages) from the TouchPad. The SMS Mirroring functionality needed to send and receive SMS from the TouchPad requires the Bluetooth Message Access Profile (MAP) to be supported by the phone.

Thanks.
i have the same problem please help
Does anyone know if the HD2 has this feature at all?
same question... TP2 user. Would love to send/receive sms via the TouchPad.
I just figured out an issue that was driving me crazy. If you use any 3rd party texting apps and have wifi calling enabled, you can't send or receive mms messages. This includes Hangouts. Want to text that pic, you have to disable wifi calling.
Now I need a realistic solution, other than use stock messaging or disable wifi calling.
I am very happy with my Gear S so far, only one ting is bothering me:
I don't receive any SMS Notifications on my Gear S (when paired by bluetooth to my phone), as a matter of fact I am not able to check the stock program "Messages" in the Notifications of Gear Manager, it just isn't there. Anyone has similar problems or a solution? Thank you!
Every time I thought something was not working right on my Gear S, it turned out to be user error
I almost brought mine back to T-Mobile because of that!
I assume you are in the US and have separate SIM cards for watch and Samsung phone? For that matter, I assume you have a compatible Samsung phone connected to Gear S?
If yes, here is how I set up my settings:
In Gear app on phone:
Notifications - manage notifications - make sure messages are enabled (along with all other apps you want to see notifications for, but I suggest to limit those, don't pick everything, the watch starts buzzing all the time then and it tends to drain the battery)
Limit notifications - don't check
List view - I have that checked
Settings - use remote connection checked
On Gear S:
Settings - mobile networks - use mobile networks: set to always on
If you use auto on/off, you will not receive any SMS sent to watch # while connected to phone via BT
Settings - notifications : check both list view and notifications
Settings - Messages - outgoing number: mobile device
Make sure you don't have "do not disturb" enabled under settings. I use that feature every night when the Gear charges and I sleep...it charges on my nightstand and drove me nuts the first night buzzing every time I received any type of notification...
Hope this helps!

Yes. Everything was working this morning, but I received a text on my mobile and several emails, but they haven't appeared on the watch. And like you I can no longer see the stock sms app or email app in the list of notifications in Gear Manager!
This is very frustrating .

Update: I completely uninstalled then reinstalled Gear Manager - (which resulted in the Gear being factory reset too). This solved the problem but it did mean reinstalling and setting up all my apps from scratch which took forever.
It seems I was doing some clearing out of unused apps using a memory cleaning app that was a bit too thorough. I deleted one of the Gear Manager's components .

when someone sends you a picture, video or group text message, it comes in as a multimedia message (MMS). when connected to wi-fi only, the message comes into your messaging "in" box, but the audible notification does not ding, nor does the message text completely download. (this on the stock android 4.4.2 text messaging app.)
however, as soon as you turn your data on, both the audible notification rings and the full message text comes thru.
my question: is there any setting available that will automatically turn the data on when an mms message arrives? if so, where is it found? or is there a workaround that will do this?
if not, well, that's just dumb.....
thanks!
Now that lollipop is installed, I no longer see a preview for sms messages in notification bar (just an icon). The option is selected, and I even tried the popup option, but that doesn't work either. I jet her sound and see icon.
I would actually like to try either Google sms or hangouts, but mms never work. I'll take suggestions for that too.
Try replacing stock text app with Textra, close to the same, adds emojis support, with add-on from Google Play.

Try force stoping it, or try wiping cache in recovery that may fix it. Google messenger is the best alternative sms app that I could find.
Would love an alternative but mms seems to be a big issue. Three Apps and no mms
Just FYI,
There is this issue in the Android issue tracker about turn mobile data automatically in lollipop. The API that turned on mobile data was removed in lollipop. So, SMS/MMS apps can't turn on mobile data automatically to receive MMS. Since there isn't any kind of notification of MMS when mobile data is off, you will never know when you receive a MMS if you have mobile data off.
