I regularly get a specific S-Health notification on my Gear S, prompting me to unlock and setup an S-Health profile. This usually happens when I walk out of range of my Note 4 or when I walk back into range (connected via bluetooth). When it pops up, I can dismiss it until the next time it pops up, or I can instead open it which simply brings up the S-Health application on my phone. I have already setup my S-Health profile so I'm not sure why I repeatedly get this particular notification...It's getting annoying! Any idea what this is all about, or how I can disable it (without disabling all S-Health notifications through the application manager)?

Thanks for replying... Yes i did that but it's those random notifications that are bugging me! I would rather not have these things pop up every time I walk out of (or back into) my phone's bluetooth range. Besides, the notifications seem useless to begin with since I already setup my S-Health profile... Surprised no one else is bothered by this or knows what it's about/how to disable it.

rooted GearS? no, i dont think there was a root available for me in Canada. My note2 was rooted but some how i lost it. havent bothered rooting again yet. but to get rid of S-health, i will
wow, i havent checked the development page in a while. didnt realize your guide for rooting all firmwares and additional scripts. will try this out tonight.
For now I ended up just disabling S-Health notifications in Gear Manager rather than rooting and using the S Killer. Figured I might want those notifications over the summer for running, etc so didn't want to kill S Health completely. Seems to have solved the issue for me so far. Thanks everyone!

Ok, this is a good one. I'm a long time root/custom ROM person all the way back to a G2 and I've not heard of something like this happening.
I got an S5. Rooted it successfully with Chainfire's auto root as described here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qaZvtGwwziQ
All was well, but after a few days, I began to notice that I was not getting notifications regularly. After quite a bit of testing, and here is where it gets really weird, I was able to determine that:
-When the phone is connected to wifi and
-When the screen is off
I get NO notifications. Gmail, Facebook, Life360, nothing comes through. I've waited 5+ minutes to get one, and nothing. Then, when I turn the screen on, they all come flooding in at once. If I disable wifi, notifications come through fine. This makes no sense to me. SMS and MMS however, work fine regardless of root and/or wifi connection.
I spent quite a bit of time with a TMO rep who did all she could do to no avail. She said I should return the device for another one, which I did today.
On an unrooted, brand new device (no apps installed either), I could now get these notifications when connected to the wifi. Strange, but ok. So I rooted it, and the SAME problem began again. No notifications when on wifi.
I must have sent 30+ emails to myself trying various things to get it to work on wifi, but no dice.
I checked to make sure wifi stays on when the phone is alseep, and it was.
I checked the Samsung push service was active, and it was.
I am on the ANCH update.
I am seriously stumped here. I suppose my next step is to unroot it and see if the problem goes away. I am really surprised that no one else has reported this!
Thanks so much for your time and input. This one is killing me...
Chris
Well, I just took the NE6 software update via Kies, and nothing has changed.
I should also have said in the first post that when on wifi, and the screen is ON, all notifications are instantly delivered.
/sigh
Again, thanks for any input.
Chris
Have you tried different wifi access points? You could have background data disabled under power saving mode. I remember seeing an option to block notifications while the screen is off. I can't remember exactly where the option is located tho.

Thanks for the thoughts. Really appreciate the input.
I have not had a chance to try other wifi access points yet, but will do that today I hope.
I did check all the power saving modes, and all were disabled.
I'll look for an option to block notifications when the screen is off, but it seems like if that was turned on, then I wouldn't get notifications regardless of being on wifi or not.
Interesting note though: Last night, on wifi, I did get notifications for some emails. So it does "work", but they are very, very delayed. I'll try and determine how delayed today as well, but for now, I will just leave wifi disabled
Again, thanks very much for any input.
Chris
Did this ever get fixed? I've been experiencing the same issue it's driving me nuts. I have my phone set to not sync, I'll manually sync but it will take several minutes, if ever to sync. My phone is getting good wifi speeds between 60-90mbits down, and I can browse the Web without delay but stuff that syncs... Facebook, Gmail, etc. All have an excessive delay.

Hey everyone. I just got an LG G Watch and I've liked it so far, but one thing annoys me a bit. I get a card about every 15 minutes or so telling me which Wi-Fi network my phone is connected to. I've tried muting things like Android System, but it isn't working. Does anyone have any idea what else I can try to mute? Thanks.
I'm using a stock Moto X running the latest firmware from Verizon.

Do you get the notification on the phone as well? The watch should only show the notifications that you also see on the phone. Next time the notification comes up, don't swipe it away. Long press it, select app info and then disable the notification.

I figured it out with your help. While I couldn't disable the notification from App Info, going into Settings -> Wi-Fi -> Advanced -> uncheck Wi-Fi notifications did the trick. I can't believe I didn't think to look there sooner. Thanks!
I can't seem to figure this one out. I get Words With Friends notifications as soon as I turn the screen on, but not while it's off. The app is on the so-called protected list. Any tips> Thanks

Lol.. I was just trying to figure out the same problem with whatsapp a while ago. Chose keep WiFi on when screen off and another option not so common is under mobile network, there's an option to always keep mobile data on. It's unchecked by default. Check that.
Those were already checked on mine.
Don't know if you already solved your problem, but I use Metro Notifications (the Lite or Free version - sorry, can't post links yet) from the Play Store. It turns the screen on and pops up a thin strip of notification. If I'm not at the phone to see it, the next time I turn it on, the strips are still there to swipe thru.
It was a little irritating at first, as just about everything from the noti panel popped up, but you can easily go thru and check on/off only the apps that you want to see. I did try the devs other app which was similar (more Windows phone style) but stuck with Metro in the end.
HTH,
Mike
Same for me. Go sms is checked in the protected apes list but I get notifications only part of the time.
What power profile are you using?
I also had this issue with kakaotalk and yahoo mail, missing notifications while phone's being charged overnight. I fixed it(I think) by not using both battery saving modes, smart and endurance, and checked all apps in protected apps setting.
Edit-also stopped using smartcover flipcase.

That's why I was asking what power profile they were using.
I'm just posting this in case others run into this same problem.
My watch was buzzing on the hour even though my current watch face didn't even have an option for that feature. Previously I had loaded the clock face "Kokoclock Sun&Moon". Pretty slick watch face but the time was too small to read easily. I deselected it almost immediately and forgot about it. Later I noticed I was getting hourly vibrations and my Fit and it me a long time to trace it back to the Kokoclock. Even though it wasn't currently selected it left the hourly alarm ON. I reselected Kokoclock, removed the Hourly Alarm option and the hourly vibrations disappeared. Others may catch on faster but this is just a heads up.
Hi. Uninstall from your phone the app koko clock. And fixed!

Strangely mine continued to vibrate hourly even after I had uninstalled kokoclock. Only after I reinstalled it and reset hourly alarm did I get it to stop.

Hi there,
reading about this problem gives me hope that the kokoclock will work as I need it to be. Maybe you can tell me.
I'm thinking about getting the Samsung gear fit or any other smart watch that will let me do the following:
-Give me an hourly vibration signal (like the kokoclock) but without a phone connected.
I just returned a sony SM2. There was an hourly vibration app, but the problem was, that the phone had to be connected (via bluetooth) for the watch to give the hourly vibration signal. The app was actually running on the phone and the phone gave the hourly signal to the watch. The problem is that I don't want my phone with me while I'm doing sports but I still want the hourly vibration. So reading about your problem makes me think that the kokoclock was installed on your watch and even when removed from the phone still worked fine.
Am I asuming right? Does anybody know if the watch will do what I want or do you know any other watch that will?
Thank you so much and best regards!

Hey everyone
I got my Honor 7 on Thursday and it's working like a charme.
Except, the notifications bug me a bit...
I had the Xiaomi Mi4 before and it went like this:
Phone is locked and display is off
I get a message / notification (e.g. Twitter)
Phone vibrated
Phone activated screen
Now, on the Honor 7 it's like this:
Phone is locked and display is off
I get a message / notification (e.g. Twitter)
Phone vibrates ONLY THE FIRST TIME I GET A NOTIFICATION
Screen stays off
Any way to fix that somehow?
I can't root the phone yet, since I have to use the god damn Huawei Cloud for 14 days...

Hi,
I think you need to activate an option on lock screen and pass-key to activate the screen when receiving notifications.
By the way, do you see any issue while using whatsapp? When my phone is locked I don't receive any notification at all... and to get them I need to start the app.

I have followed that tutorial of yours, but I then received that error message on the Huawei website.
I don't have it available right now, but I can try to unlock it again, and possibly share a screenshot of the error message

I have the same issue with a new G8, even with this option enabled, protecting the app in Notification Center and lock it in memory to never close, WhatsApp notifications stop working in some hours.
The only workaround for me is rebooting the device.

When you want to clear all the apps (square button), you just pick one and pull it down so it will be locked to memory.

Locking in the memory works for me because the app is running in the background but thats not the point. it used to work normally without locking it aswell :/

I have found that the notifications (at least on WhatsApp) stop when you get more than 10 in a row, then the notifications in the status bar not longer responds and that's the exact point when you don't receive more notifications.
I made a test yesterday, I charged my phone before night and then I restarted and I got all the notifications. I disabled WiFi and data (to see if the device goes to sleep mode) and when I woke up, I activated WiFi and I had like 20 messages in WhatsApp, then I tried to click the notification bar to see the messages, but was unresponsive and from that time I had to restart the phone again in order to receive notifications.

My issue seems a bit different to yours. I get notifications usually but for whatsapp sometimes its running in the background and sometimes its not even though its a protected app and it should be running in the background even if i clear it in recent apps and lock my phone

I don't think is different, is the same problem, WhatsApp not showing notifications. And is not showing notifications because at some point, it fails to deliver them because some buggy stuff with the permission manager.
