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.
Turn s voice on and out will work

Remember, if your phone is on, the notification will not be sent to the Gear.

This is BS. I think all Verizon note 3 and Galaxy gear won't sync

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.
Please ignore, I just noticed that this is being discussed with the latest Gear update
With the latest Gear Manager update I get a request to access my Gmail account (I can live with that), but now I receive notifications for EVERY incoming e-mail and not just for my primary inbox as it was in the past. I often don't read notification e-mails and every time I get a new message I get reminded for EVERY unread message on my Gear (vibrates on and on and on).
Does someone know how to revert back to the old notification style or find this update also extremely annoying?
Silly question but how did you set it up to give notifications for Gmail. When I try through gear manager the option is greyed out in the extra notifications section.

Edit - that's weird I just tried again and now the option is available.

Well i get notified by a pop up whenever i get a call and a text message.
Now i noticed i dont get a pop up notification for other apps, say whatsapp for example.
What i get is just the notification icon app on the gear to show the number of notifications recieved. So i dont know i have, say 4 whatsapp messages until i press the home button and wake it up.
Is that how the neo 2 is supposed to work, to only show pop ups notification for calls and text messages?
It's the other way round here, since the Gear manager software updated the only notification I get is emails the gear manager complains about "saprovider has stopped working" I wiped my phone and watch and still got the error. I just noticed today that the software has updated again so hopefully it will start working again. To set other notifications there are options in the gear manager to set what notifications you get on the watch.

Which phone do you have it paired with?
Galaxy S5 with the rom in my signature. Xtresolite I think. A touchwiz rom.
I have chosen to use Android Messages vs the the Samsung Messages app that orginally came with the phone. I personally prefer Android Messages as it's simple and not so compacted. Anyhow recently, I notice I can't get notifications for some reason its like it's set to a timer that will allow the notification to be on the lock screen or pull down menu. Perhaps another way of describing it is: it's when I have multiple sms messages but nowhere was I informed that I had messages, but if only one message comes I get the proper notification. It's weird as... All my notifications are properly all set up and the app is updated to the latest verison..
Hi, did you get a solution to this, I have a similar problem on my Note 9 Default SMS App, I never get notifications when I get any texts. I can only see them when i open Messages APP

I had the Watch 4 pro and now the Watch 5 pro and have experienced the same issue. I'm using a Galaxy S22 ultra phone as well. I do not get notifications/alerts on my watch when I get text messages to my default text messaging app, Google Messages. I have received a notification only 2 times. Both times I had sent a text with my phone while at work with bad service, and the message wont send. I then get notified on my watch that the text didn't send. And at that point, and text messages that come through will vibrate on my watch until while that original notification is there. Does anyone have my insight as to whether this is a known issue with Google Messages and the Galaxy Watches? I have all the proper notification settings in place. Its not a deal breaker enough for me to go back to the stock messaging app, but it would be nice to get Google Messages to work properly with the notifications! Both the phone and watch are regularly updated.
