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?

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.

Gear / HTC One
Hello people,
chance someone has the program ATN Mananger and it can make me come.
I have coupled my Gear with a HTC One (with custom firmware).
Sorry, can thus be no notifications show.
Thank you very much

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

CM11 Note 3 and Gear Manager

I was wondering if anybody has a note three and install the new CM 11 and I was wondering how gear manager in the features work. Like notifications
sent from my Note 3 or Galaxy Gear

Non will work ... It needs TW Framework I hope someone can built a hybrid that allows full noti's on the Gear...
Sent from my SM-N9005 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Iv experimented with this a little.
The strange thing is there's absolutely no activity when notifications are received on the phone using CM11 in regards to pushing to the gear. No errors nothing !
The APK used to detect if a notification comes in installed no problem.. its quite strange.

Yes @fOmey I have also experimented with it the only ones I could not get installed by titanium backup from a TouchWiz rom was the apk for s voice and weather. Also I got a few force closes after I reboot but it runs pretty fine I was actually surprised it was as easy as a titanium backup

Ok lol i thought if you manage to get notifications.. I would flash CM in a heartbeat...

you can download the seperate apk from the gear manager to install them individually. This way you should be able to get everything to work on a custom rom. NOTE weather and media controller DOESNT install in my experience so these features will not work

I did the same as you, I even had a load of tests with frameworks and whatever. I'm no advanced android developer, but afaik, isn't possible to make this work without the whole thing together, unless someone makes the touchwiz framework works in some AOSP rom.

My Sony Z Ultra with GPE KITKAT 4.4.2 & Samsung gear watch

Ok so it seems to be working same as the nexus but still have a few problems to iron out if anyone can help out with a similar setup I would appreciate it.The pictures from the watch do not transfer to the phone not sure why pedometer don't work so uninstalled it and the usual voice and weather apps.I hope we can get all bits working I made this thread pacific for z ultra owners of the GPE rom and gear watch setup hope we can fix things here thank you in advance.

Not going to happen unless you can figure out what parts of touchwiz are required, and then port it
(Or maybe sdk if it is ever released)

To be honest I can live without the voice and weather my calls and notifications work and a load of other stuff very happy that it's even working and that samsung deprived us of being able to use other devices with their gear watch.

Yep, I felt the same with my nexus 5, but then went back to my s4 for full compatibility

Gear symbol on phone

Got my new Gear 2 Neo Mocha Gray from AT&T from the sale (despite being a Verizon customer, hehe), and I'm really enjoying it so far. The trick I found was just change the drop down when you order from mobile to home phone FYI.
I'm a bigger guy so I find the size very pleasing, it's aesthetically pleasing as well. The lack of apps can be forgiven as it is new but what it does so far it does well.
There is one thing that is really bugging me though. I am a little OCD about clutter on my phone and hate notification icons at the top, it makes me think I have unread messages/emails/etc. How can I force my Note 3 to not display the little watch symbol while the Gear is connected, I looked for turn notification off in 3 different Gear app places but all were grayed out.
Thanks!

If you are rooted and on kitkat there is an xposed setting that will do it. However. That persistent notification is what keeps Android from purging the app.
Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk

I am rooted, on 4.3...on clue how to do that though. I do get what you are saying about preventing Android from purging.

That notification icon is my biggest complaint right now. Galaxy S3, not rooted. =-/

Yeah, it's my biggest complaint too...and it's not even in the watch it's on the phone

a lot of people are having problems with xposed as once the framework is installed it causes s health to crash
so far not fix for it but it works for some and not others.

Xposed works on my note 3, assuming you have a different device. ..

He's not saying xposed doesn't work but if u install s health and have xposed running u will struggle getting it to load....
I uninstalled xposed as I use s health quite a bit.

Precisely. Xposed and shealth work fine for me, I suspect its device specific. Shealth 3.1 aand latest xposed on note 3 kitkat stock rooted.
Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk

I loaded up a new rom and all is working 100 % I went with the Echoe rom

I'd like to remove that ongoing notification as well. Anything xposed modules for 4.3 that work to remove that?

Gear Manager UI Changes

Check out these 2 screen shots. Some days I have one version and the other days the next. Does anyone have any idea why it changes?
Thanks.

The second one looks like its for Gear S.

But why does it change on it's own?

Every couple of days it changes. It did it again over the weekend. Very Strange.

I've noticed the same oddity of the very useful transfer buttons coming up only initially, then quickly going away. Even when they were there, the transfer to gear failed.
I really am looking towards android wear now, Samsung isn't keeping up with a unified experience using only Samsung devices...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I537 using XDA Free mobile app

I've had to revert back to Android after not getting notifications on my Gear. I'm looking into getting the Gear S if this keeps up and hope whatever app market Samsung uses has the Gmail app.
