go into chomp's settings and turn off notifications.
then go into default android sms and turn off notifications.
go back into chomp and turn on notifications.
this should make it so your g1 only notifies via chomp. however, if you still get multiple alerts for a new sms, one of the envelopes will have a greenish border...this is the notification for chompsms. it looks almost exactly like the default icon, but it has the green color around the envelope thingy.

WOOO
Great! Simple! Easy! Awesome App Finally A Way To Text Without Sliding The Qwerty Out...great Work

I left dgalert installed and turned of notification in chompsms, made sure when asked which to use as a default, set chomp as default. Now i get the benefits of chompsms with one notification, just dont get the green envelope.

I kinda wish it wasn't a direct bite of the iPhone Texting module and it was made custom to the G1...its still cool though.

I kinda wish it supported MMS. Except for the better rates on international texting via Chomp, it's fairly useless to me.

Not getting text notifications

I am receiving notifications via sms know phone but not to the gear. Anyone else experiencing this?

Do you have sms notifications enabled in gear manager?

I'm getting some - but maybe 25% of them only. Very odd that something so simple could have so many problems.

I am not getting any texts or emails. Quite frustrating.

Only the default messenger app seems to work, no 3rd party one. Also if the phone is unlocked at the time the notification comes in, it will not be sent to the gear.
Notifications need a serious overhaul to enable system wide notification support like the pull down menu in android....
Remember, it's pretty new territory for android so patience is a virtue. Early adopters will feel most of the pain ^^

If it's still the default settings you wont get email notifications. The Gmail app isn't selected by default and it can only tell you you have an email with the gmail app anyway. It won't show who it's from etc, only the stock Samsung email app can give you info on emails when they come in. If you aren't getting texts, you should open the gear manager app on the Note 3, select "Settings", then select "Notification" and make sure "Messages" is checked.

Mine are all checked in setting. Still no notifications beinf pushed. Spoke with 2 representatives of Samsung both had no resolution. Anyone else?

Are tou usi g any other bluetooth devices while the gear is connected?
Try removing those.
Also worthwhile removing the gear using the gear manager > paired gear > remove before last resorting to factory reset?
Maybe something buggered up during the initial setup.

I didn't mean that it's all default settings. I meant I am using built in apps including Gmail. I don't even get notification that there is a text or an email. It is also set to receive messages in Gear Manager.

Are you using a Note 3? Your sig says Note 2. If you aren't using a Note 3 that is probably the problem, If you are you might want to try resetting the Gear in settings and then re-pair it and see if notifications start after that.
For what it's worth I've had zero problems getting any notifications I've selected on the Gear.

Restarting or turning notifications in gear manager off then on temporarily makes them notifications work again

Also make sure Blocking Mode isn't currently active.

I'm now getting the notification issue above, but with a variance...
My Samsung Note 3 was sending all kinds of notifications to my Gear (Mk.1) with no problem at all.
However I was having other problems and decided to do a Factory Reset.
After the Factory Reset it no longer sends any notifications at all to the Gear.
I have other apps that communicate successfully two-way with the Gear but not a single notification from any app makes it through.
I have done all of the things suggested above to no avail.
The notifications are turned on, additional notifications for other apps are turned on, but still no notifications whatsoever arrive on the Gear. The Gear Manager app has permissions for Notifications
The Note 3 is rooted and running Android 4.3.
The Gear Mk.1 says: s/w V700XXUBNC1 Model SM-V700.
Any ideas?

I had a replacement phone and decided not to turn S Voice in the gear manager and had no SMS notifications. It took a few days to work it out.
I was getting other notifications but it was the SMS that wasn't coming through. I turned is Voice on in the phone but it still didn't work and realised it not turned it on when setting up the Gear Manager... I'd not checked the S Voice box on its first start up!
To go back I uninstalled the Gear Manager then reinstalled it and when the setup screen came back and I got my SMS notifications back by running S Voice on the Gear as well as the phone. It may not be the issue in this thread but just wanted to save anyone the hassle that gets this.

GOSms Notification - Can't read text

Has anyone been able to figure out how to read the GOSms text on their gear? I get the notification from GOSms on my gear, I select the GOSms notification on the gear, but it only shows "New Message" instead of the actual message itself.
I've had to re-enable the stock app, so now I get two notifications on my watch, but end up having to select the stock texting app to be able to actually read the text on my watch.
I have GOSms selected in Gear Manager to send GOSms notifcations to my gear. Is there anything else within the GOSms settings I'm missing?

Check your settings in GO SMS, specifically the notification settings. Look for "Notification Bar Privacy Mode" and make sure it's "not" selected.

I don't know why you are having issues....
I have been using Gosms since day one and works fine in my gear.
Only downside is that you can not fast reply with the pre-configured texts through it.
You have to be using the stock messaging app which I find annoying. I wish there was a way to reply back.
But other than that it works fine. Nothing to do , just select it as an app from gear manager.
Are you running 4.3 on your phone ?
If not then that would be why. Before I upgraded to 4.3, it was not working either. Just what you described.

Anyone know if I root can I reply using Gosms? I asked in the Null rom thread and a Mod deleted my question and said to stay on topic...

No dice... It still only says "New Message".
Since I can't use the "canned message responses" from the Gear with GOSms anyways, I've just disabled sending GOSms alerts to my gear. I like being able to respond to the text message from my gear, and don't want to lose that functionality.
Now I have my phone send just regular text messages to the gear, and use GOSms on the phone as the default text messaging client.

What phone are you using? What version of Gear Manager?

Note 3, Gear Manager says version 1.6.111801

I was having hit & miss on the default sms app, so tried Go Sms - but I'm not getting anything on my watch from it. I'm on latest watch firmware & latest manager. Go Sms is selected manually in 'more notifications'.
I don't use a lock screen, but I tried turning it on to no avail. I also thought the Go Sms popup might cause the problem, but I turned it off - no help either.
Anyone know a SMS app that will get the pages to the watch 100% of the time with no delay ?

weird - i am getting the notification and i can read the message. i am using the stock UK ROM. only issue is when you receive a 2nd text from the same person. if you haven't opened it on the phone, the 2nd message will say "2 unread messages". the watch doesn't talk to the app to show that you read the message.
hopefully they make an app for the gear...

Very odd. I'm on a stock rom (rooted). Do you use a lock screen, and do you use the GO Sms popups ?

I have a lock screen but don't use the pop up. It all isn't great because in order to keep it working, I have to go into the app and open the text. If not, it doesn't work for the next text.

New gear manager, still no luck. Tried all the settings again (lockscreen on/off, popup on/off). I have to be missing something somewhere.

You would need the MK7 firmware that allows full notifications from all providers.

No Hangouts notifications

I've had this phone for a few days and I've noticed that if not getting any notifications for Hangouts. I have to constantly check the app to see if I missed messages. It's the only app that's doing this to me. No problems with any other app. Anyone having this issue?

YES!!
It's pretty annoying because I am missing a bunch of google voice texts because of this.

I've noticed this as well -- but it seems to happen when I leave Hangouts as the active app on the screen when I turn it off (or it times out). If I go back to my home screen and out of Hangouts, then I get the message notifications.

Odd that a core Google app would have this problem when no 3rd-party app has done it. But Hangouts is due for an update anyways....

I saw this for the first time today when I picked up my nexus 7 and saw I had a google voice text from several hours earlier. Opened hangouts on my phone and saw the text had been received, but I couldn't remember seeing a notification. It then happened again a couple hours later. I've had the phone since Thursday and been receiving hangouts notifications until this morning.

I've been having the same problem. Has anyone seen a fix

I thought it was an issue with the ROM I'm using and/or the kernel. But as it turns out my girlfriend, using a Stock, Unrooted T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Avant, isn't receiving any hangouts notifications either. It seems it could be a bug across all hangouts apps. She has android version 4.4.2. And hangouts version 2.5.81636427, same as me.

Same problem here, 100% factory. Noticed lots of texts a day after they came in with no notification.

so everybody thats using greenify, and doesnt have hangouts greenified, there is a greenify setting that many enable) but will prevent you from getting a hangouts notification.. the setting is to have greenify notify you if you get notifications. turn if off and dont turn it on, as it will prevent you from getting hangouts notifications.

I'm not using anything like greenify. Running a custom kernel but this problem seems to happen regardless of kernel changing.

MMS Bug Again
I'm starting to think it's related to the MMS bug creeping back in again from the Developer Preview.
If you go into Hangouts and try to edit your Access Point Names, you won't be able to because the menu drop down isn't there

I'm having the same issue. I'll hear the hangouts messahes come in on my Nexus 5, but nothing shows up on my Nexus 6 and I have to manually scroll the conversation to eventually get it to update (when I finally updates)

It's within the settings of SMS from the Hangouts app.

Did you read the rest of my post @dawad

Yes, I did, which I responded that it's in the SMS settings from within Hangouts. APN doesn't appear if you select your hangout account, but is in the settings menu of Hangouts>SMS.

I'm seeing the same issue on my stock Note4, I'll not hear any verbal notification and don't see any visual notification, only way to know a text is received is to open hangouts and then I see several new texts.
Has anyone found a solution yet?

Same issue, I'm going to try what Simms suggested.

Google Messenger not turning display on ?

I started using Google Messenger recently, and one thing I noticed, is that when the phone is off to the side, and I get a new text message, the screen doesn't pop on, like it did with stock Messages and Textra.
Is there some Settings somewhere I need to enable that ?

From my experience, you need the Tasker app and set up a profile to turn the screen on. That is the only way I have found that works consistently. You will also need the Secure Settings app.
The Tasker app can seem overwhelming, but if you take your time and read some of the help files, it is actually pretty easy. I use the same app to turn my phone to vibrate when the phone links to my work wifi.
