I didn't see another thread for this. It seems that my sound just randomly doesn't work. All day yesterday, my text message sound wouldn't play. Also, my email notification would only play sometimes. Is this a known issue? Maybe the OTA will fix?
Do a factory reset, it will solve your issue.
Same thing happened to me today. I just rebooted the phone and it worked again.

I'm no longer getting vibrations on my wrist with my Gear Live. I haven't touched anything, but they just stopped. The motor does work however, I've tested it using the Phone Finder app. I've tried resetting the device, restarting the device, and making sure that it's not on mute. I can't seem to find settings for this anywhere; could someone help me out?
Edit: I love how as soon as I post this, vibration starts working again..
Could it be that certain apps aren't getting the thing to vibrate, but others are? Anyone else getting vibration notifications with Textra?
I swear vibration didn't work every time. It's so faint though that even when it does, I don't notice it

Do you get Textra to work without. Contact + ?
Watch not vibrating for text messages
I noticed my Gear Live wasn't vibrating for text messages. It seemed random whether or not it vibrated for text messages. It vibrated normally for all other notifications. I have now discovered (and I believe and hope it's a software issue) that my watch will vibrate every time for incoming texts if and only if my phone is set to silent or ring mode. If the phone is set to vibrate, my watch will not vibrate for incoming texts. My Phone is a Samsung Galaxy S4 on the Verizon network running Android 4.4.2. I have tried rebooting, powering down andback on, and even a factory reset all resulting in no change of behavior. Is this similar to what you were experiencing? Anyone else experiencing this?
Text message vibration not working
I also noticed I'm not getting a vibration for text messages. Not sure why, I've had the watch for a week now and this just started a day or so ago. I've also restarted and reset to factory settings with no luck. If anyone knows of the issue, please post. Thanks!

Not sure if it's a permanent fix or not, but I actually shut my phone down completely (Samsung GS4) and turned it back on. I did a couple test text messages and the watch is picking up the messages and vibrating again. Again, this could just be a band-aid but it did seem to work.
I set up moto voice without a hiccup at the start. I realized that it wasn't working so I went into the app to retrain the launch phrase and it won't recognize that I'm saying anything. The microphone image sits there frozen as if there wasn't any sound. I cleared the data and cache but it's still not working. The OK google search seems to work fine.
Nevermind. A reboot fixed the issue. Although it was weird that it stopped working completely.
Same thing happened to me. Definitely some sort of bug. Not sure that triggers the bug though!
I'm having the same issue. I've noticed that it might be triggered by either Bluetooth or GPS. So far the only fix I've found is rebooting. Tried clearing cache and force stopping moto with no luck.
Another bug I've found that might be related in some way is when I launch the camera it disconnects apps like car home ultra and Pandora. I really hope to find a fix or work around for this because its starting to annoy the hell out of me.
I have the same issue. Motto voice will randomly stop working. It seems to happen when my phone connects to my car's Bluetooth, but I can't reproduce the issue every time. The only way to resolve this is to reboot. This sucks as motto voice was the main reason I bought the phone.
I'm running 5.1 stock. I've had the turbo for a while with no problems, but recently random apps keep crashing for no apparent reason. I haven't made any major changes to the phone or installed any new apps but it keeps doing this. Textra will crash to the contact list screen after 3-4 seconds of looking at a contact thread. Yik Yak will close to the home screen with no error message after a few seconds. Facebook will open to the logo and a blue screen as if it's trying to load something but then it just crashes to the homescreen. The camera won't open and will give a message "Unfortunately, Photos has stopped.". Not every app does this either - Reddit Sync works fine, Fenix is ok, Stock Messenger is ok, snapchat will act up on occasion, and everything else is OK. This happened once before and I did a factory reset and everything was working fine for 2 weeks until it just started happening again. I cleared my cache partition with no luck. Has anyone else experienced a problem like this or know a potential fix? I've searched everywhere and I can't find anyone experiencing the same problems and if they are the problems are so vague I'm not finding them. I'm running 5.1 stock.

I got the same problem yesterday, I kept getting the "sorry blank has stopped" box over and over. Now the phone seemed to be dead. A couple times during the day it just went black and wouldn't start without a hard reboot. This morning it is completely dead, I missed my alarm because the phone seems to be bricked. Never had any issues with it, I've had it for like 6-8 months. Guess it's dead?
Hopefully someone can help...
I finally received my OTA update to Oreo last week... all was good for a few days, then over the weekend it has been having constant issues with locking up, apps not responding and streaming issues. Top ones I can think of are:
Incoming calls do not display on lock screen and screen just goes black when I try to open
Facebook Messenger sometimes locking up the whole phone
When streaming a video file to Chromecast with AllCast, it keeps pausing until I activate the screen again
I wondered if it was to do with a compatibility issue with SwiftKey, so I switched back to Gboard, which seemed ok for a bit then it went on the fritz too! I've tried taking the SD card out and restarting, I've tried formatting the cache partition from the boot menu... still no joy.
Anyone got any idea what the issue could be and how to remedy?
After every os update its recommend to do factory reset.
Try factory reset and everything will be fine.
Anyone had this problem? The setting is toggled in the menu, it makes a noise on key press, but the call recipient doesn't seem to receive it.
Had this problem with my last handset (P20 Pro), and now realise I have the same issue again.
I will contact Pixel support tomorrow when they're open again, and currently on a slow web chat with Vodafone.
Just tried a few things, appears that they do work on ear piece, but not when on loudspeaker. Vodafone suggests the phone is faulty. I'll speak to Pixel support tomorrow.
If anyone has a few minutes spare, could you see if you have an issue with this?

Has the same issue and came up with the same results. Speakerphone caused it to fail. I think the tone is being heard and picked up at the same time maybe. Switching to ear piece solved it.
Seems a very odd 'bug'. Wonder if there is a fix for it?
Used the Pixel support chat thing today.
I was told to force stop the phone app, uninstall all updates, and clear the cache from the app.
Install update for Phone app from Play Store, reboot phone and test.
Tried it twice and working at the moment.
Might help someone out.
After having this issue for over a year, I finally found a (so far) permanent fix. Update/change your APN settings on the phone. I am a T-Mobile customer so I went to the site to get the correct settings. I added a new one and everything has been going well.
I'd tried every fix I could find via googling, but nothing stuck longer than a day. It's been over a week and I'm still working. I hope this helps someone because this was the worst issue to have in this current video meeting era.
