Hey, my wife has the xperia tl, completely stock, and upgraded to latest update. Recently, the push notifications for text messages have stopped, so she doesn't know that she has any texts unless she opens the stock texting app (she doesn't use non-stock texting app). All the settings in the texting app are correct, and I've spent some time on Google, but can't find anything. So, asking for help on this.

I am not sure if I understand you correctly with "push notifications". But if your wife's phone has Extended Standby function enabled, reminder notifications are actually not working.
You may consider giving Smart Notify a try (Google Play).
No status bar notification, no indication at all that a new text has come. Facebook and email notifications work fine.
Extended standby is not enabled. Smart Notify, even with correct settings, does not alleviate the problem. Other ideas?

If you place a Contacts Direct Message shortcut on your screen, does it show the no. 1 when a message has been received from this contact?
I am a noob, so don't expect anything from my input, just ideas regarding things I'd try.
was having a texting issue myself latley with a TL. Did a master reset and everything is working perfectly again. just make sure to back everything up

So strange issue. I enabled SMS for Hangouts thinking I could deal with its inability to split text messages. Turns out I can't, oops....
ANYWAYS, Typically when this is enabled you can disable it in the SMS settings under Hangouts. This seems to not be the case anymore. Trying to edit the SMS settings now takes me to the general "settings" area of the phone as if I had selected the "gear" icon in the apps list or quick settings area of the phone. has anyone else run into this issue of 4.4.2? Have you found a solution? I would appreciate any assistance.
So are you trying use the HTC messages as the default instead of hangouts?
Settings->More->Default SMS App

Hey guys, even though I have my Gmail notifications set as "sound only once", every time I get a new email it plays the notification sound. How can i shut that off?

If you want no notification within the app uncheck notifications.

I want it to only go off once, then stay silent for each additional email I get. This is the first phone I've had do this, my N5 only notifies me once, and each email after that if I don't check them doesn't play the notification sound.
I figured you meant something more complex than no notifications at all. I don't understand why you want to be notified of only one Gmail per day...... What's the point of being notified at all if it's only for one email? Is it a email from a certain sender that usually comes before the rest? I'm just curious.

Not per day, if i get an email and don't check it, every time an email comes in after that it plays the notification sound every time. Like I get multiple emails in a row from XDA subscriptions, I don't want it to play the sound every time. Gmail has the option to notify once or for every email, I have it set as only once, but that doesn't work. That kind of explain it better?
It will notify once for that original email if you get another email from another person or a second post was made on Xda it will send another email and you will be notified again but for that email not the original one you got that you still didn't check. That is simply how it works

That's not how it worked on multiple Motorola phones before this one, my GNex, or my N5. Only this phone. I've been using Android for over 2 years since Gingerbread all the way to Kit Kat and never had this happen on any other phone. I'm just trying to figure out what it is about this phone that is causing it.

I got it now. What's weird is you quoted me and I got a new email because of that but did not get a notification..... Which is what you want. It appears to be working the way you want for me but not for you. Have no idea why that would be. My guess is it's something with your account and not the phone itself.

Haha, at least you know what I mean. I dunno, only thing I can think of to do is try another stock rom like Eclipse and see what it does.

Why is it these updates offer squat compared to the pain in the ass waiting-in the US also and in no hurry-I'll keep the root and flashed theme-just venting-thanks
There is an email app, but I can't figure out how to make it do anything. No mail shows up there from any of my mail accounts and there is no configuration either on the watch or in gear manager. Maybe a forthcoming gear manager is required.
It does seem Sammy is doing precious little to its keep up with the Jones' or maybe they're holding back pending a transition to Tizen.

This update did add some cool new features.
You can now specify what swipe up and down does on watch via 'Application Shortcuts' in Gear manager under 'My Apps'.
Also, Contacts and Logs are now just like other apps, you can make them favorites or not and you can adjust what order they appear in. Good changes from what I can see.
Finally, the 'Emails' app lets you read full emails for any new emails that come in (from the stock email app). You can also delete them via the menu when viewing them.

When you increase the backlight beyond level 5, there will be an 'outdoor mode' which will maximum the backlight and return to level 4 after screen off 5mins.
Also, in motion settings, you can choose wake up gesture to be "clock" or "last viewed screen"
I hope they are new features.
Bah... Update wont install on mine.. gets to 27% and I get the dead Android and it goes back to the homescreen..
Also when reviewing notifications if you tap and old say gmail or messages. Remove from list will come up. You select yes this is a delete all for that group.
Edit 2:
Weird - after awhile I started being able to read bits of email messages in the notifications area, so that (below) is solved.
I also noticed that you can drag and move icons in the "big icons" view. Long press on any big icon, and when the others appear to left and right you can drag to reorder them.
Old edit: I can read the messages from the "Email" application, but that means I now have to go to that App instead of just tapping from "Notifications" so overall it takes away the convenience of using a smartwatch to begin with. If I have to jump through hoops to see a message, I might as well just pull the phone out.
Just got the update this weekend. Totally borks exchange email if security is set on you work email. Now I can't quickly check my emails on my wrist. Really sucks, so now I have to figure out how to revert back. Does anyone know if you can do that through kies?

My company has heightened IT security and I have been unable to connect to my exchange account without installing MDM software and using TouchDown (which I hate). I gave CloudMagic a try and not only did it connect to my exchange account, the CloudMagic notifications come through on my gear with the same amount of message content I had with the stock email app. I have the UK version of the ROM installed so I can't confirm it works with the US update, but it might be worth a try.

Thank you very much! I can confirm that this works on the US version also and that the notifications are coming through clear on my watch. I had also lost the Outlook or Exchange emails with the latest update again, and have been using an Android email app instead, but they kind of got jumbled together on the watch, if there were two or three that came in close by each other.
This is my wife's new X. She wanted a freaking Iphone but I talked her into this. Just some color here.
She now has a notification in the tool bar that reads "messages unable to send." If you pull it down, it brings you to the general text app. There is nothing that tells her WHAT messages didn't send. It's driving her crazy. Even to the point of her going to Verizon (which she despises) who were, of course, zero help. Made her delete all her texts and it's still happening. All her texts read as sent and if you exit the text app, the notification goes away for a few seconds then reappears.
Need to know if any of you guys have an idea of why this is happening and if so, how to stop it.
She'll turn that thing into an iphone by the end of the week if I can't figure it out.
Thanks gang.
Does she have an active mobile data connection? I think she needs that to text on Verizon, wifi may not be sufficient.

Anyone else have a guess? It's driving her nuts.
Are her messages actually being sent and received?
Remove her sim and reinsert.
Google the Verizon APN settings and confirm they are correct in network settings.
Try a different texting app. I'd recommend Textra or hangouts.
If none of that works reply here I'm sure there will be more help incoming.
I sometimes have this problem when sending pictures to iPhones, it will constantly fail to send. Rebooting usually solves it

Have you tried Settings > Apps > swipe R to L to get to All > Messaging > Force stop > Clear cache > Clear data. Restart and try another message. Or as others have suggested, try another messaging app. I really like 8SMS and have set that as my default messaging app and set Active Notifications to show 8SMS notifications by default.
Switched to Chomp SMS and it's fine.
Thanks all.

I had the same problem before the 4.4.3 update. It was picture mail that wouldn't send. Our APNs have a dedicated MMS APN that needed to be configured for my mvno . once I configured the APN I rebooted and it sent whatever picture mail I had been trying to send out.

A lot of people actually seem to be having trouble with SMS after the 4.4.3 update. It generally seems to be because they've disabled the app "messaging" and for whatever reason, they can't reenable it after the update.
It doesn't make much sense though, because texting apps can't rout messages through other apps anymore.

I'd been getting the unsent SMS every couple days on 4.4.2. I used 'Permission Friendly Apps' to find what had 'Send SMS' permissions. I don't use Skype from my phone, so I uninstalled it. I also disabled SMS and turned off the 'Improve Hangouts' option in Hangouts. After about a week, still no mysterious empty message.
It's not proof any of that fixes anything, but may be worth a try?

Hello everyone.
I've updated to 5.0.1 and I've been having issues with updates basically I'm not getting notifications for my Emails or WhatsApp or any other app for that matter, i have to manually go into my apps to get my notifications. For example, once I go to my WhatsApp i get my messages all at the same time (iOS style) and also my emails, I have to go into my mail box to refresh to get my emails. Is this an issue or i'm missing something in the settings?
I searched before starting this thread couldn't find anything.

Sounds like you need to do a factory reset. Always good with an update anyway.

I just did a factory reset and it seems that it has solved the issues so far so good.
