Have recently found that when I get a Facebook notification, it comes thru 3 or 4 times in a row, was wondering if anyone else was having this problem and if there was some way to fix it, have tried doing a factory reset on the Gear Fit and have also tried changing some of the settings in the gear fit manager app
I use it with my Sony Z1 and the same thing happen.
Anyone please help to solve this?

Hi, I am unable to change the Google+ app's notification sound. When I go into Google+ Settings -> My Account Settings -> Notifications -> Ringtone, I get the dropdown selector for the different sounds, but when I choose one and hit "OK", the dropdown closes and the setting doesn't change. I have no idea if this is a fault in the Google+ app itself or something else, like a failure with the dropdown menu system.
Has anyone else experienced something like this and/or can think of a fix?
My setup:
- Verizon Samsung Galaxy S4
- MI1 firmware, rooted with RDLV
- Using Safestrap and running Google Edition 4.2.2
- Using XPosed Framework with GravityBox, XBlast Tools, and XPrivacy
- XPrivacy is NOT restricting Google+ nor any Google apps or System apps at all
Thanks for any help!
Hope someone knows of a solution as this has been annoying me for a couple of weeks now. No matter what I do the notification tone will not change.
I have seen one other guy mention it on Google+ as well but nobody had a solution.
Same issue

I have the same issue. It is stuck on"Tethys". I previously had it set to "None" forever. This must have happened with the latest update to Google+, which it says was Nov 15th, but it seems like it started a few days ago. I was still on 4.4 when it started. Now I am at 4.4.2 and it is still happening.
The Google+ update I downloaded today fixed the issue.
ATT just gave me my unlock code, so I am sending the T-mo watch back and just set up the ATT Gear S instead.
The problem is that I can't find a way to install apps that were on my first Gear S, onto my second Gear S. I can't redownload them from the store, but instead the button says to go back to Gear manager. In Gear manager I can't see the apps at all, maybe because I already disconnected the T-mo Gear S.
What am I missing?
Can you use the Samsung Gear backup and restore function?

How would I do that? The watch itself only has restore to factory settings as an option.
I hope it does not involve installing kies?
BTW, i was on the phone with Samsung for 64 minutes today. After being bounced around in a circle to four different departments, I still don't know how to do it. Presumably a mgr will call me back at some point.
Never talked to such clueless support in my life.

Have same issue. I'm a dev and keep resetting my device and I have several apps that show as purchased that do not show installed in Gear Manager so I can't uninstall or re-install. Seems to be a bug here.

Clear the cache?

If you reset your device, maybe your phone thinks there is more than one?
This is what worked for me with the two devices I had: I had to either disconnect (Gear Manager) or entire unpair (BT settings of phone) my first device, then the second device could reinstall the apps. I should have updated this post when I figured it out, as I am fuzzy on the install details: I think I had to redownload from the app store.
ETA: Samsung support is completely clueless on this matter: The manager who was supposed to call me back with a solution never did.
Did you check the backup and restore in gear manager inside the settings menu
Anyone use the Gear S while cycling? I've been using Strava for awhile now and would love to be able to use it on the Gear S without bringing my phone but dont see an app. Anyone got any ideas?
Hi, I use the Gear Fit with a Huawei Android mobile. Pairing works fine. Unfortunately the notifications don't appear on the Gear. I turned WhatsApp, SMS, Calendar and phone calls on in the Samsung Gear mobile app, but the only thing that works is showing an incoming phone call...
Any experiences or suggestions?
thx
Try installing Android Wear onto your phone. I've heard it somehow interacts with the phone to send notifications to Tizen devices. S2 and Fit 2. You don't need to open it, just install it.
Did that and it worked... though now the Gear App crashes when I try to open it. but for now I'm happy getting notifications and there are no apps to download anyway...
thx for your suggestion! ?

Glad that worked, but Gear App should not be crashing. You may want to try and reinstall it if you have not. There are a lot of new faces in the Gear store now as well.
Unfortunately it still crashes after clicking the icon. Connection is working though. I uninstalled both Android Wear and the Gear app, cleared cache in the settings but didn't help.
I have a Huawei Mate S...

Okay, it could be the phone then. The app doesn't crash on a native Samsung phone from my experience.
if I turn off Bluetooth and disconnect, the app works fine. As soon as I turn it on it crashes so I never get to install apps and watch faces.
maybe it has something to do with my recent Marshmallow update that came in the middle of playing around with the Fit2...
For years this has been my go to forum to find answers to many of my questions and luckily I have always found solutions without having to ask questions, but I knew there was a time where I would have to start placing questions and here is my first one.
I have the above mentioned phone and have recently installed Android Messages. The reason for that is that my other half has got herself a Pixel 3a and with that she also has the same default SMS app.
we noticed that we could use it like iMessage on iOS if both of use the same SMS app.
The problem I have is that with my Redmi, the Android Messages app never starts with the Chat Feature activated. After each reboot (which happens every morning as I turn the phone off during the night), I have to go into the Android Messages settings and force the Chat feature to on. In fact when I get there I see the message that my phone isn't compatible with the feature, but after a few seconds of waiting it does show it as available, but it is switched off. This happens every morning.
I have been trying to find a solution for this and came across someone with a similar problem which he fixed by deactivating his phone's native SMS app which apparently was interfering with the Android Messages app.
I don't know how and if it is even possible to deactivate the default SMS app on a Redmi phone, I don't see any options for that. What I have done was to remove all the permissions for the default app, but it still doesn't solve my problem.
Is there anyone who might have managed to overcome this problem or at least give me some hints of what I should try?
regards
