Did anyone LOOSE the ability to read e-mail after the recent update?

I updated my Gear Manager software from 1.4.102802 to 1.5.111304.
After this update, I can no longer read e-mail (Exchange) received from my Gear. Before the update, I was able to read the messages received via the stock E-Mail app on my S4. Now, I only get a notification of a message. If I tap the message, I only get the date and time with the option to tap "Show on device."
Thanks!

Yes. There's a thread here with a link to the 1.2 apk. Remove gear manager, install 1.2, turn off auto updates in gear manager 1.2, and you're good to go. I reset my watch for good measure; I don't know if that is necessary though.
Edit...i didn't know there was a 1.4. I am now using 1.2 and it is fine, but email and messaging from the stock app are all I use the watch for.

Do you have a link to the thread handy?

Yes, I have it now from the PC (didn't have it before from ttalk):

Check my sig for several versions of Gear Manager

Thanks for your help guys. I didn't want to roll back to 1.2 since the Gear was working fine with 1.4.
I located the 1.4 APK on the Aptoide app store: uninstalled 1.5 from my S4, installed 1.4, reset Gear, re-synced the devices, sent a few test e-mail's and notifications with readable text is back.
This seems like quite the f'up on Samsung's part.

It's not clear yet whether this is a mistake or whether exchange mail will never be readable via the stock client as part of a broad security policy. I hope it's a mistake.

I hope it's a mistake, too. If Samsung permanently removes the ability to read Exchange mail, it's a deal breaker and the Gear will make its way back to Amazon.
Samsung: Please don't screw this up.

They won't read this forum. Send email to:
[email protected]
And complain. That's the developer contact email.

Gear not showing notifications

Hi all,
Just purchased a Gear to go with my S4, it does not seem to be receiving any notifications, email etc.
Can anyone help please, is there a step by step idiots guide out there
Thanks

Have you installed the gear manager?
Enviado desde mi SM-N9005 mediante Tapatalk

1. install gear manager. You can find it on samsung.com or in the samsung apps on your s4
2. try to connect the gear
3. ones connected, look if all the notifications are enabled in gear manager on your s4.
4. If 1-3 is done, and still no notifications, your phone or your gear has a problem. But i think, it will not be the case.

And make sure that your screen is off when the notification comes in or it won't go through to the gear

Can I ask when you said "...make sure that your screen is off....".
Do you mean the Mobile phone screen or the Gear screen?
Thanks.

No use. You still need touchwiz

Samsung Gear
I did it with the Touchwiz probiert.Es go since only the functions as in the Nova launcher.
The contact list, call history, photos and video go.
unfortunately the weather dates is not displayed.
Also there is no way Whatsapp add to it.
I use the custom firmware: Elegancia 19
Thank you very much

Still can't view Google Hangout messages on gear

Even after the update today...I can't view Google Hangout notifications on my gear....omg
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

After the update, did you enable the additional notifications in the gear manager? if you click on notifications, at the bottom there is a 'more notifications' toggle, which then allows you to have any app installed (that would normall have notifications in your task bar) send their notifications to the gear.
This worked for me. I can read the messages from hangouts without any issue at all. I also have facebook notifications and such shown on the watch as well.

I'm having the same issue I'm on wicked v9 now with a samsung galaxy s4 for t-mobile and I don't see a "more notifications" tab anywhere just a notification tab. It has hangout on it but it only opens the app on the phone.

Yep mine is the same as Ragnarkov. ..don't have more notifications. ..maybe I have to wait for another update

The latest version available to me on the Samsung App Store. Both Note 3 and Gear are full stock, no rooting.
Attached screen caps of how it shows up on my phone. Not sure if it would be different on a different carrier variant, different roms, or different phones etc.

I am actually shocked. I honestly thought software-wise (with any OTA/Kies updates) we recieved them at the same time. I usually check for availability with AT&T or another american provider because the ones here in Canada are TERRIBLE at giving out updated information.
Sorry I couldn't be of help

Are you running an alternate rom on your note 3? Or are you using an s4 or note 2 perhaps? I'm using a stock, fully updated note 3 here in Canada (bought on and sold by bell) with a fully updated gear directly from samsung brick and mortar store.
I still am stumped. I could have sworn American providers got all software updates at same time as, or earlier than, Canadian providers.
I have heard that you needed all software/firmware updated in order for all notifications to show and work. If your gear manager is same version as mine, is your gear firmware same as well?
I attached a picture of my firmware on the gear to compare. The end part I'd the most important, the MK7 part. That's the latest firmware from what I know available to everyone in North america, or so I've been lead to believe.

i had the same issue,
but now it works fine...
TO HELP US :
activate patern on the galaxy gear
on your phone
FOR HANGOUT ONLY :
remove any SMS software (Go SMS, and others)
Because it was the problem for me... (but i will give you a solution after)
activate hangout SMS
Go to options, SMS, and activate Notifications and Vibrate
On the gear manager, go to Notification, more, and check "Hangout"
Go to Hangout, send a message to your own phone number to test it, and wait 1 or 2 minutes to validate if it's okay
FOR GO SMS :
Go to Hangout (if you have) and uncheck the SMS option
Go to GO SMS, settings, "advanced", and UNCHECK other SMS softwares in the section "other settings"
return in "settings", go to "notifications" , check "enable notifications"
go to "defaut notification settings" , and uncheck "vibrate"
Now you can use GO SMS on your phone and receive the notifications from the stock SMS software on your gear
The only one problem is you will receive 2 notifications on your phone, (but only one vibration)
Sorry if the paths and names are not the same in english for you, because my phone is set in French...

how to mark emails as read with the galaxy gear

I just the the galaxy gear today and updated it to the latest MK7 software. Now I get an alert when a new email comes thru, that's great. But then after I read the email on my watch, I have to click to dismiss it again on my Note3. Is there a better way? Can the gear mark emails as read?
thanks

Same question goes for deleting an email
Sent from my SM-N900P using XDA Premium HD app

I use stock Rom, non rooted, and default mail app (not gmail or anything).
If I go as far as to read the email on my gear, by default it shows up on the phone as read.
But you can't delete an email from the phone through the gear. At least not from what I've seen.

Thanks for making this. It's like people literally couldn't read the instructions on the site. It was really frustrating to watch how many people asked how to do this yesterday in the release thread.

Does this work on s5 active?

Samsung Galaxy S5 Active
I can confirm that this worked to root the S5 Active. I had issues with Google services not functioning properly, but once I installed SuperSU, and it disabled Knox, everything seemed to be working fine again. Based on comments from others, I have not enabled ultra power save mode.

How did you go about installing SuperSU, and disabling Knox?
UPDATE: I see in his thread about SuperSU. Does it automatically disable Knox? Or do I have to go about Titanium Backup and disable all the appropriate apps?

SuperSU automatically prompts and asks if you want to disable Knox. The first time I ran it, it hung. Rebooted, and ran again, and it disabled right away. Was golden after that point.

V2 didn't work for me. Just tried V1 and it worked with no issue. Awesome! Just got the S5 today as well.
