No notifications after latest update gear manager - Samsung Gear S

Since the latest update of the gear manager i don't receive any messages on my gear anymore. Make and receive phone calls work. Anyone else have this and have a solution for this? I unchecked and checked in the settings the notifications but that didn't did the trick. Any help or recognition is appreciated.

After the last update s voice sends texts to whomever it feels like and call whomever it feels like. Svoice call bob........it replies calling bob.....then phones a random person from my address book. Meh 1st world problems.

Same thing happened to me. I was receiving all other notifications except messages. All I did was power cycle my gear s and it fixed it

Naw I just factory reset the gear and reinstalled gear manager and now it works again. Tnx

How to detect incoming call is a forwarded call?

Hi,
i need a way to understand that the incoming call is a forwarded call so i can deny it using tasker or another application.
If possible i want to auto decline the call using tasker + secure settings or any other plugin
Any help or way is accepted.
Regards,
Hello,
I also have the same problem here. The Call Forwarding app from the store is not working for my N7100 4.2.2.
My thing is that i want make a popup or anything else when i get a forwarded call from my other phone. Because the normal small message that my note brings is to short, about 2 seconds.
My idea is that i will check this short system message with tasker and will perform another action.
Or i will catch the code wich is send with the forwarded call and perform with this another actions. But i don't know if this is working
And specially how this is working or if tasker can do this.
Does anyone have a idea how a forwarded call can get detected?
Thanks for your help!!!
Michael
Bump.
Anyone got this sorted?
Thanks in advance
I have an app called forwarded call alert

[Q] "Message not sent" only on SMS

I have recently purchased a new i605, rooted, unlocked, and installed TWRP through Casual. And flashed CM10.2-20130827-Nightly-i605. I finally received my SIM cutter in the mail today, and pulled the full size Straight Talk SIM out of my Skyrocket that I have been using with no issues for almost 2 years, cut the SIM, put it in the Note 2, and entered the APN settings. It is receiving good signal, showing the "H" and "H+" the majority of the time. I can make voice calls, receive voice calls, send/receive MMS, and have good data sending and receiving. My only issue is, I can only receive SMS, and when I try to send (or reply to one already received) I get the "Message not sent" error. I saw a possible fix, of updating your SMSC, but I have no clue how to find what my SMSC is in order to input it, and haven't been able to find it either. I tried editing the way the telephone numbers are stored from +1 250-250-2500, to (250)250-2500, +12502502500, +1 (250)250-2500. I also saw where someone found a fix for their situation, where they had accidentally set Google Voice to send text messages. I went into the settings on my Voice app, and that setting was turned on, so I turned it off. But I am still having the same results when trying to send an SMS.
Does anyone have a clue as to how I can find what my SMSC is, so that I can try that fix for the issue?
Did I post this in the appropriate subsection of the Verizon Note 2 forum?
I'm in the exact same situation you are. Send/receive calls, receive texts but can't send texts. I received a new note 2 through insurance two days ago and did the same process of rooting the phone, except I flashed jedix17 on it. So I'm guessing the problem lies in the roms? I haven't had time to switch roms to see if that fixes it though. I'd like to see if there's an easier alternate solution as well.
Ok, I got to playing with the "fixes" I had already attempted, for a second time. Google Voice was set to send SMS, and I would change the setting in Voice to make the messaging app send SMS. Well, I noticed that after closing Voice, then going back to the settings in Voice, it would be set to Google Voice sending SMS again. So I Force Closed the Voice app, and uninstalled it, and the issue cleared up. I have no idea why the app would be automatically changing it's own settings back, after closing it though.
I see. Then it seems you and I don't have the same root problem. I don't have an alternative texting app, so I guess I'm off to reflash my rom.

Did you figure out your issue? If you flashed Gapps, you may have Voice+. Check in your app drawer just to make sure.
Yeah I have fixed it Thanks for asking (and yeah I did check and I did not have voice). Reflashing the rom did indeed work

SMS Notification

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 .

Contact list on Gear S does not match phone - Cannot text/call specific user with SV

Here's the deal...
Use SVoice on my Note4 and say "text this person" "my message" and then "send" all is good.
Use SVoice on my GearS and do the same using the same name and Gear S says that person is not in my contact list.
Check my contact list on the GearS and low and behold, they are there.
Any ideas? I've done a full reset on my GearS & it was working fine when I had my Note2 connected.

I am having this same problem connected to my S5, only for me not all contacts are showing in my Gear.
I attempted to contact Samsung customer support for this issue. They told me that only the phone contacts will show on the gear and synced contacts will not. I tried to explain that all of my contacts are synced via my gmail and not a single one has been entered on my device, but she insisted that only phone contacts will display.

I was able to find a work around. I edited the contacts that were not showing up (I starred the contact) and it then synced with my Gear S. I then unstarred the contact and the star went away on my phone and Gear but the contact remained.
To make it easier I starred the contact in my gmail and hit the sync on my phone, instead of doing it all on my phone.
Can I please ask, if someone calls your note 4 or whatever phone you have connected to your gear s does the call still come though to your watch
I use gear 1 with tab 10.5 s 4G and use this as my phone so u can understand why I use gear 1 to take calls, with gear s I would still like people to call my tab and answer on watch, is this still going to be possible
cheers

Yes if some one calls my phone the call can be answered on my Gear. If connected via bluetooth they will ring at the same time. If running in standalone I have call forwarding setup so the call will be forwarded to my Gear. One complaint I have at the moment and have not looked into a work around for is if connected via bluetooth and I ignore a call (either on the Gear or phone) the call will then still be forwarded to my Gear.
Do you have the Tab S 10.5, the Gear S does not connect to mine!!! So I have 2 standalone devices, I only bought into this whole smart watch nonsense because I use a tablet as my phone, so now I have ended up with 2 separate numbers????

Notification sound for viber

Hi to everyone.
I recently got my Gear S and after trying everything including reseting and uninstaling gear manager on my Note 4, I cant get notifications to vibrate or make a sound for viber. Everything is ok with sms and calls, I get both vibrate and sound but nothing for Viber even thought it pushes the notification and appears on the watch it is always silent. I have tried different settings on viber aswell and spent the whole day yesterday reading this forum.
Any ideas?
Anyone?
