Hi Guys,
I updated my Nexus 5 to android 5.0 yesterday.
I have been the same pebble notifier application for quite sometime now with What's App and it has always been displaying correctly on the watch. It will say 'Message From : <Person ID>: <Message contents> '.
However after the update I noticed that this now displays as 'Message From: <Person ID> ' and not show the contents of the message.
Is this not working because Whats App has to perform an update to the app to be compatible with Lollipop, or is it to do with the Pebble Notifier app?
Regards,
Kevin A.

I disabled most app notifications within the Pebble app and use Notification Center from the Pebble App Store. The only complaint I have so far is how Pebble doesn't display song info for Spotify natively. Hopefully the new update to be coming out in the next couple of days fixes this.

We know there is an issue with not all notifications going to the Gear.
We can solve this with Android 4.3 and new notification access APIs.
I am working on an app for the Gear to do this - I will keep everyone updated on this thread.
Awesome thanks

The notifications API would give the Gear access to the content so it can actually be displayed or is it to mirror whatever is in the notification bar ?
Great!!
Awesome!!!

Is there a published ..something.. about this issue, because I'm only getting a small fraction of sms/email, which is the most important thing for me. Hoping you can do better then Samsung!!
There is an app called Pebblify which is exactly what the gear needs.
You choose which notifications to push to the gear, and it pretty much sends exactly what is in the notification bar to it.
That said, I really like the gear notifications now which I can push a button on the gear and pull my phone out of my pocket and go straight to the message.
Yup, but I guess thats doable. It really is only a matter of figuring out what type of guesture is used there. Maybe nfc proximity? not sure.... anyways once thats figured out, sending the intend should be trivial.

In the gear manager, settings, then select notification, you can select which notifications appear. I have turned off Google+ and GMAIL. I don't use gmail, because I have several email addresses and only want one place to check. But the email app works great and sends most of the email to the gear. Hope this helps!

Not quite the same thing. Check out Pebblify in the market and you will see what I mean. You can have any notification from any app pushed to the Pebble verbatim as it appears in the notification pull down.
That is only part of the equation. The native notification app is just too limited. Ultimately I want to see the same notifications I get on my phone, and the ability to jump directly to the item when clicking the notification or using the gesture.

Yes, I agree with that as well, but to be fair you are comparing V2 Sony to V1 Gear. The Gear will get there also, remember the Sony didn't have that out of the box either.
The Gear's 3rd party software is just starting!
Hence I want to see it eventually. But from what I played with so far with the gear none of the features I mentioned are out of scope for a decent notification app.
I dont expect it to be release over night though or even with all the functionality I would like
Sent from my SM-N900T using xda app-developers app
The notifications are really a huge drawback on this beautiful device.
I turn off messaging notifications and use sms popup and it won't show up on the GG. Google Voice is a no show.
Really hope a 3rd party app can address this massive shortcoming as it appears Samsung has no intention to.
Please enlighten us how development is going??
Hmm i would like to know that too. If what I read is correct, an app on the phone that subscribes to the NotifiactionListenerService should receive all or a limited set of notifications on the phone. If a companion app on the gear can communicate with the app ( not sure how the new BT stack works but I guess it could be in the form of writing to a Parcel, receiving it on the companion app, and pushing the notification content to the screen..... ) it would allow all notifications to display and not just the ones the Gear Manager allows currently.
I will start experimenting a bit with how the gear and phone communicates and how an app could possibly either hijack this channel or create it's own. It would be great if anyone who has more development experience in android join in to see this through.

I find it odd that you don't have an alarm function on the watch unless tethered to the phone. So I was trying out various alarm clocks for the gear, most did not fit well on the screen and some had time entry not compatible with the gear.
I found the following on Google Play Store:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.macropinch.axe&hl=en
Loaded it via Wondershare and it works a treat. Has 4 great looking clocks including a digital one with seconds and date, easy time entry, multi alarms and snooze function etc and works really well on the gear (with or without connection to phone.
Looks Very Good!
I had not so much time recently but the time to root and configure NOVA is coming...
Great find, thanks a lot. I've left a message on their facebook page and hopefully they should publish it officially on Samsung App store
They just added an app in the Gear store called ZDclock
Lets you set alarms/reminders for all different things.
Looks quite nice on the Gear screen.

Thanks. Yes that's a neat app too. I am keeping them both
I love the idea of an alarm app right on the gear but the permissions that app asks for seem way over the top for what it does. Does it need access to everything on the phone?

Does this app have to be installed on phone and watch, i like the zd clock app but its only available in 24 hour format. If this app is installed on the gear, it automatically installs and syncs with the phone.
Great little app ! Thanks for sharing.. Almost looks like it was designed for the gear.

App is installed on phone and/or watch, and it will synchronise but the beauty of it is it will run as a standalone app on the watch.
i have this app only installed on my Gear.
Digital clock looks good, but analog clock is very bad.
background is gray (not black) and clock isn't centered.:crying:

Is this a widget or I can use/install this on stock rom gear?
Sent from my SM-N900T using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
You can install this in stock rom too. It is a standalone app, not widget.
So now most of us have got gear manager running on the Nexus 5 / Non Samsung Devices. Has anyone had any success getting the notifications to work? I have notifications on and more notifications on but using the stock notifications app for the Gear, finds no notifications. I also ran a logcat to see if any errors come up when sending notifications like a SMS / skype message through and could not find any errors..
Maybe offer a bounty to get "stock notifications" from Gear Manager?

I was stuck in the same situation... only difference I am running a Note 2 with cm11.
I figured out that the version of Gear Manager I had was too old and was my problem. After removing all traces of the older version and updating to 1.5.120903 I was able to successfully pair my devices together and I was then able to get into settings to enable USB debugging and continue the process of installing this fine ROM.
The only thing I am still unable to get working is notifications.
Anyone pair iphone with the gear?
There should be a step by step guide to get gear manager to work with Nexus 5. I installed gear manager stub and gear manager and still stuck at the setup connect.

My NEXUS5 with KITKAT 4.4.2 and GEAR(null_17 ROM)
hi to all, i want to share my experience (sorry for my english, i'm italian)
i have Nexus 5 phone and galaxy Gear(null_17 ROM).
Nexus 5 with KitKat 4.4.2
Galaxy Gear with V700XXUAMK7 with NULL_17 ROM
and watchstyler 1.0.9 (working) with Casio Skin :good:
At first i installed gearmanagerstub.apk
after i just bring "gear manager 1.6 111801.apk" and renamed to "gear manager 1.6 111801.zip"
opened and bring all file in the folder "preinstalledapk"
and run all one by one excepted for "samusic" and "saweather" because fail to installing(but is ok).
after all manual apk installed also installed "gear manager 1.6 111801.apk"
and opened gear manager and start the gear and pairing it. (2 or 3 time but making same test and check and at final running)
if you come from old pairing with other gear manager version example 1.5 or 1.4 etc... just from your sdcard delete the folder ".BManager_backup"
for fix the notification i also installed ATNmanager 1.2.2.apk on the phone, and in the gear i already sended the version of "ATNmanager 1.2.3.1_pre"(only the watch.apk file inside) and i receive all notify on gear by this apps and working fine.
remeber to go in setting->security->allow ATNmanager to read notification
up to now
work:

logs call :good:

Notifications solution http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2596455
Hello.
I have same troubles with different versions of Notification Centers - Notification Center mod and YaNC.
Sometime notifications stopping to come to watches. When I starting NC in this situation, I received a message "service is not started" - but really it is checked. After re-checking this mark, service activate but stop working again after some unpredictable time. See screenshots for a reference.
Can you suggest some solution?

Did you update the application without being on 2.0 fw? I think that was causing a similar issue for many.
Try rebooting both devices. That did the trick for me with Pebble beta9 for Android.
On SDK 2.0 what worked for me was to uninstall the app and download the beta directly from dev's link --> https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/6999250/dialer/notification/beta/PebbleNotificationCenter.apk
I'm using a OnePlus 9 running Android 13. I've installed the ECG and BP mod by dante63 and its working great. I have just found another incompatibility - if I update the "Quick Responses" using the Galaxy Wearable app on my phone (Watch Settings > General > Quick responses) the changes are not sent to the watch. This is a known issue apparently, and I'm wondering if anyone knows a workaround to alter the Quick Responses on the watch. If I try to edit them on the watch - it sends me back to the Galaxy Wearable app on the phone
