Sync issues... What can gear sync... - Samsung Galaxy Gear

Bought my gear off a friend. It worked fine for him on his Verizon galaxy note 2. I saw it get updates and messages and calls fine all the time. He needed cash. So i bought it off him. I can sync it fine with my Verizon galaxy note 3. Time displays. The phone sees the watch.
But the only notifications it will sync are phone calls. SMS or any other app like Facebook or Twitter never syncs across to the galaxy gear. I've reset the gear over 10 times now and tried changing all options. Toggling notifications. Leaving em toggled off since in on they did nothing. I don't know what is wrong. I know my note 3 sees the gear. It syncs phone calls fine. But it just won't sync any other notifications.
I'm rooted on the stock rom. Only mods are xposed so I could get official status with wanam. Anyone have any ideas of what else I could try? I've reset the app in the phone too to no avail. Something just isn't working right

Did you enable notifications in the gear manager app on the phone? Also at the bottom of the notification menu is "more notifications" that you can enable.

[Q] Block/reject callers without 3rd party app?

I've been using my N6 for 1.5 weeks now, coming over from a Samsung Galaxy S3. I'm on Verizon.
Not sure what the occasion is today, but I just received 2 calls this morning from telemarketers/scammers. On my S3, blocking these callers was as simple as long-pressing the number on the stock phone app and clicking "add to reject list". It was a great feature and didn't require me to get any 3rd party apps. I just tried to do that on my N6, and there doesn't seem any way to do this. Long pressing the numbers doesn't do anything, and I don't see anything in the settings either. Has anyone had any luck with this?

Answer GVoice/Hangouts calls?

Has anybody figured out a way to get this to answer calls from the Google Voice and/or Hangouts apps? I have the added complication of using it with a tablet that "can't" make voice calls. The "Phone" app is hidden and with everything I've tried (nothing tricky, just the standard options), my Neo tells me something like "your connected Android device is not capable of making calls."
I'm using a rooted AT&T Samsung Galaxy Tab S (SM-T807A), running Android 5.0.2. I'd like to be running basically anything other than TouchWiz but locked bootloader is a pretty big hindrance.
My Neo is running software version R381XXU0BOA2.
I'm able to get notifications from the Hangouts app (even missed call notifications, ironically) so I suspect that if I could somehow trick the Neo into thinking the T807 is (for example) a Galaxy S5, it might let me answer calls. But I have no idea how to do that or if that's even where the problem is.

N960U Notifications not working correctly consistently

Hi all,
Phone: N960U from T-Mobile, 128GB version.
I am by in large not getting notifications unless I open any given app, then I receive all notifications for the given app instantly.
Exception seems to be SMS messages.
This also seems to be impacted by my cell coverage, as the issue happens more at work where my cell service is poor, but we have strong wifi which I automatically connect to.
For example, someone sends me a message in Signal, I won't get any notification until I open Signal. However, if someone sends me a text message, Signal will present that SMS notification right away, but not message notifications even if they are waiting.
Same situation applies for anything that is data backed (email, browser, etc.) I say data because I know SMS is not handled the same way as data. I also do get notifications for things like reminders, phone calls (not sure that's a notification), and other non network related situations.
I am not using any power save modes and have exhausted all my google search finds of enabling/disabling different kind of notification settings.
My phone is not set to do not disturb either.
It almost seems like when the screen is off, I am losing data connectivity which is causing the apps to not update, but I would expect them to update when the screen turns on. Instead I have to manually open the app to trigger the sync.
Anyone have suggestions?
These notifications issues all started for me when my note 8 got upgraded to Android 8.0 and continue to be issues on the note 9. Sorry no consolation.
Primarily Telegram and i think what's app.

I've been having issues with notifications in general for a year or so now across a few devices on and before Oreo, WhatsApp is the worst, it doesn't play well with custom ROMs, but even on the note9 pure stock is still a problem, my last ROM on my le eco le max 2 I used to have to lock these apps in the task switcher, I'm not certain if that's an option with the note9, I wasn't getting Gmail notifications either on this but that seems to be okay now I've disabled battery optimisation for it, have you tried that?

Connection and voice mail issues

Hi everyone. I am having issues since day one with my Samsung S10. I am a T-mobile user if that matters. My first problem, I currently have a desktop with Windows 10 Pro and the latest build. However, since I got the phone, whenever I connect the phone to the computer via USB, it does not stay connected for more than a min. It will keep on disconnecting and automatically connecting. Many instances it will do it over and over, dozens of times until it finally connects but it wont last for more than 2 mins and start all over. A very frustrating issue because it makes file transfer nearly impossible.
I have so far unistalled all drivers, used 4 different cables to include original and problem still persists.
My second issue is with voice messages. Whenever I received a voice message, instead of going to my visual voice message app, it will show with the green phone icon in my notification, forcing me to call my voice mail. Rarely do new voice messages go to my visual voice mail app, they do, but rare. My wife also has a S10 and she has the same problem with the voice mail.
hopefully someone has some help to provide me.
Thanks in advance.

I will start from the second issue (the voicemail). I see that too and I am with T-Mobile as well. I do have VVM app installed, but see the normal voice mail icon in the notification bar as well as VVM icon. I don't really like double notification, but I am thinking it is possible to disable the phone app's notification for only the voice mail. Haven't tried it though...
As far as phone getting disconnected...I have seen this, but not with my S10e. I have another android device and it did happen to it, couple of times. When device was off, that is when I mainly seen disconnect/reconnect thing.
1) Do you have Samsung Switch app installed on your Win 10 PC? If you do, then try uninstalling it. If you don't have it, install it. Could be driver conflict too
2) Try different USB ports on your PC
3) See if you have USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 ports(try them all)
4) When you connect your phone to the PC, pull down notification shade on your phone and see if you can choose different USB options, that might help too

Google Messages Issue

I just got my A71. Currently using it here in the US on Tmobile.
For some reason, on Google Messages app, messages are stuck in sending when I am connected to wifi. If I disconnect, the messages will go through. I reconnect the wifi and sometimes the first 1-2 messages go through but then it gets hung up again. Can anyone else try and confirm if this is an issue as well?
I tried resetting network settings.
Using the native Samsung message app doesnt seem to have issue.
I even thought it had something to do with transfer my old data from my Android 9 phone to this A71 that is on Androidn 10, so I just factory reset the A71 and just installed the google messages app, still the same issue.
