hey guys. I just got the LG G Watch R today and it's been a lot of fun to play with. however, when i use the "ok google" command to send messages (this happens on my phone as well, an HTC One M8), the message does not show up in the text messaging history. is audio history required to be on for these to be recorded? much thanks!

If you look below looks like at least 2 of us are having similar problems, although it is showing as sent on the phone doesn't actually send the text. Still waiting for someone to chime in myself and see if we can get it figured out, not a complete deal breaker but it does kinda stink.

thanks for replying. actually though, we're having different issues. for me, the text does go out, because i'm getting replies. however, my phone doesn't record what i've sent, so i can forget what's gone out and will get a reply to something i don't even remember. because i'm forgetful, i reaaaally wish they had a fix for it, and i haven't been able to find any sort of fix. or anyone else with this issue, for that matter.
see, i was in the middle of typing something earlier and forgot, so i deleted it -.-.

I was experiencing this also using an HTC One M8. It would show the message if I enabled SMS in Hangouts but then the message didn't show in the default messaging app. I decided to purchase Wear Messenger and use that instead. The app is worth it IMO for the ability to see my text message history/threads alone.

I would like to set my Kaiser to send pre-written text messages at specific times, does anyone have any idea about any software that does this? Or anyway to do it on the phone now?
For example, next week, I'll be traveling. I would like to write a text wishing my girlfriend a happy birthday, and then have my phone send it to her at 8AM her time, which will be 3AM my time.
Or, as another example, being able to set it so to send other people I work with reminder texts, about deadlines or whatnot, without my having to keep track of doing it myself.
Any thoughts or suggestions?

you are in luck because I have found this recently for my kaiser and it works great. Does scheduling and group texting and you can save the groups too.

OK, this is frustrating as hell, do any of you professionals have any ideas??
Each night, I send three to five messages to the same person, say at 0300, 0305, 0310, and 0315.
Almost universally, the first message is delivered, as I can see it crossed off in the Scheduled Messages section of PowerSMS, and it also appears in the Messaging program as sent.
However, the remaining messages, although crossed off as sent in PowerSMS, do not appear to have been sent, and do not appear in the Messaging program as sent?
Any ideas? This is the sole reason I bought PowerSMS--to send scheduled messages to the same person, but it's only sending the first one.
I've tried everything. Soft resets. 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 minutes between messages. Leaving PowerSMS minimized. Closing it entirely. Leaving it open on the desktop. Plugging the phone in, leaving it unplugged but with plenty of power. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes it sends a few messages. Most times, it doesn't.
Frankly, this is annoying. The phone works. Messages coming and going are not an issue, EXCEPT when PowerSMS is involved in sending them.
I posted much of this on the developer's site, and his only comment was: "That seems odd, and I don't have an answer for you right off the bat because the behavior is unpredictable. Does it help if you space the messages out a bit more (i.e. try to send them 15 minutes apart instead of 5)? Also, can you soft-reset your device to ensure the memory is clean and nothing else is running in the background? Then see if you can get it to send yourself 3 messages in a row 10-15 minutes apart. One guess is this *may* be related to the power management features of the device. It gets woken up at a certain time, sends the message and goes back to sleep and tries to wake up too quickly. Maybe this is causing the problem?"
Anyone here have any thoughts? What he says makes sense, but I have no idea where to go from there.
What version are you using? The newest version is 1.3 and it may fix the issues.

Evan Charlton released a big update to his awesome app for those of us lucky enough to have Google Voice accounts, go grab it!
Hopefully this is appropriate for this forum, if not, sorry, I just wanted to tell anyone else who has been waiting for an update like me!
Tommy
The release notes and documentation can be found here:
http://docs.evancharlton.com/docs/GV
Updating early this morning and I can't say I'm too happy with it. It keeps getting stuck at the setup screen and I can't get into the actual application. The only way I've been able to send an SMS through it is by removing the native Messaging app from default and using Contacts to send an SMS. Only then do I get an option to send through GV.

reboot your g1 and that fixes the settings screen getting stuck. I ran into this problem as well.
Only issue i'm having now is dialing out a number takes a long time, > 30secs even with pin turned off.

Still didn't fix it. I'm going to try uninstalling and reinstalling.
Edit: Still busted. I'm at a complete loss as what to try next.
Edit 2: Wow I feel stupid. I emailed Evan for help and got this:

I didn't bother filling in the entry for Google PIN because I selected not to use it but the software still checks to make sure it's filled in. It's like an idiot filter and I failed miserably.

Probably not worth blaming yourself for that one. Sounds like the software isn't that clear. If it doesn't need the pin, it shouldn't need to check for it.
Has it stopped working for anyone since the newest update?
GV calls failing with error message
GV stopped working for me after the latest update a few days back. All attempts at outbound calls result in a message that says "The cost of this call is 4 cents a minute" followed by disconnect beeps. Unsure of whats going on. Maybe google changed something on him.
Would love to get it working again, just made the switch to routing all calls through GV after the previous update and then this one comes out and I lost all connectivity.
Good news is that you can download all previous versions from the link a couple of posts above. I'm trying it now.
GV working for me again...
It appears that GV is now working again. From what I've seen the failures are intermittent across all versions. I'm guessing Google is fiddling with things on their end and temporarily killing Evan's app.
Wonder if they're making their own...
GV seemed to hurt performance
I was a big fan of his GrandCentral app. When he made the GV v2 app, I was looking forward to lots of functionality which it has, but it always seemed to severely degrade my phone's UI responsiveness and when it really got bad, I would get Force Close/Wait windows for GV.
I've unloaded it and am waiting for another big release to try it again.
I found a change log with download links on his website: http://evancharlton.com/projects/gv/
Apparently that error has been corrected.

$.04 a minute crap is back again.
Well... after committing to routing all my calls through GV and having GREAT SUCCESS!!! for about a week the dreaded "The cost of this call is 4 cents a minute" - BEEP BEEP BEEP is back again.
Had to stop routing all calls through GV to ensure I'm not missing any important calls. This is very frustrating as I love the app and really love cutting down on costs. Can't wait until GV is 100% stable. I still think Evan's app is not the problem, rather Google fiddling with something on their end which in turn breaks GV.
Anyone who has further insight throw your two cents in here.
On a side note, I wonder if Evan is aware of XDA-DEV? Wonder if we'd be of any help to him, or if he'd be a good contributor here.
" $.04 a minute crap is back again".
is that local calls or long distance out of country?
I've had zero troubles with GV; it's more than likely GOOG is doing something with their code.
GV error...
.04 cents a minute is happening for local calls within my home area code. I'm nearly certain its Google's fault... wonder if this is a sign they're working on mobile client as well?
I'm an idiot.
Finally figured out whats happening with the error I metioned earlier in this post. The 4 cents a minute error happens when I try to call a contact that doesn't have an area code in the number. For instance 456-7890 instead of 123-456-7890 triggers the error.
Overall the GV app is great. Very stable and full of great features. Two things I'd like to see. Support for a search function in contacts is a big one. Integration of my GV contacts with my other google account contacts is another. The former is on Evan to develop. The latter is all Google and I hope they hurry up with that.
Also - just discovered that GV has some widget features in the new Hero theme, never saw them before, not sure if they were there or not.
Official Google Voice App?
Looks like Google INC. Just rolled out a google voice application on the market
http://www.cyrket.com/package/com.google.android.apps.googlevoice
EDIT: woot just got GV invite!
And it looks like they are going to offer voip callout too. The S is about to hit the fan in regards to Google's relationship with carriers.
This is a bigger deal than Chrome OS imo.
Im having problems with Google Talk on my phone.
Normally, if u start a chat. and the other person is talking back, u should see the txt under your own txt. But i only see it as a balloon in my top-tray of the phone and do not see the txt written by the other person in the chat overview.
Anyone knows how to solve this?

My gf and I also have Galaxy S phones. Her device is running on I9000XXJFB firmware, mine is on I9000XWJM2. Shes having kinda like the same problem with GTalk: the screen is splitted to 2 sides (top&bottom), instead of how mine works (the good old conversation-look, when A-B-A-B persons messages follow each other).
Maybe its firmware-dependent? I did not find any option to change the layout in the settings menu.
Firmware is probably a good bet. If you want to hold off, have you tested to see what happens if you turn the setting balloon top-tray setting off? Would you see nothing at all? Or would it populate the message how it should.
You probably want the best of both worlds, it's worth a quick test if you have any reason to delay upgrading firmware.
disabling the notification button in the toptray would be a bummer anyway because then i wouldnt be notified if somebody is messaging me.
i downloaded a beta version of Hi GTalk from the market. which is working as it should work so i guess my problem isnt solved with Talk it self, but with installing an alternative app.
i think you'd still receive the sound notification. As long as you are going an alternative app route, i'd. consider uninstalling and reinstalling GTalk, it might just be corrupted.
good point. i will uninstall it and reinstall.
[edit] hehe i cant uninstall it. its "in the factoryrom" so i see. i dont see it at the installed programs list..?
gtalk still problem
Hi, I have the same problem with gtalk, also after upgrade to Froyo any ideas ?
solution
Solution:
Change time zone to the right location unbelievable, but it works !!! layout is dependent on internal time zone.
Good luck
Having a weird problem with the Android app for Google+... I left a messaging conversation, and it keeps popping back up when I go back into messenger. This is the case on my tablet, and phone. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but nothing is working. Suggestions?
Bump.

Open google plus
Go to messenger
Long click on the conversation you want gone.
Select leave.
But make sure you are logged out on the other device.
I hope this does what you need.

I've left this conversation several hundred times over the last 4 days. It keeps showing back up. I've cleared data on both devices, and my tablet is actually turned off right now, so logging out isn't the issue.
I have been trying to recreate your problem.
So far, no luck...
Only thing I can think of, maybe the problem isn't on your side but on the side of your conversation partner?
According to google the only way to get back in a conversation is when someone invites you back in.
When you leave a conversation, you’ll no longer receive messages from that conversation and won’t be able to access or view the history of the conversation unless you’re invited back.
Since one-on-one conversations are between you and another person, there’s no way to completely leave them.
I'm just guessing here. Sorry, I wished I could help you.

Might be it, but it was a one liner and it keeps coming back.

Maybe best to post feedback to the google plus app people themselves ? I don't think there's a problem with your setup, just a bug on google's side ?

No idea what it is. It happens on my tablet and phone...really annoying. Tried clearing data on everything and no luck...uninstalling/reinstalling, nothing.
I really didn't think I would use S-Voice much, in fact I had it turned off on my old Note 2.
But with the gear, I'm loving sending and replying to text messages with it. I've found it is very accurate and really cool to say it, have it show me what it is going to send, then just tell it to send message. I've used this in the office and from the couch a few times when the phone was across the room.
After having the gear and Note 3 for a few days the two go together very well.

+1. Rarely used S-Voice on any previous device except when people asked to see it. I use it a lot on the gear tho and am surprised at how well it will compose a text while driving including converting to shorthand automatically and adding smileys etc..

Funny - I was playing a bit this morning with it as well. I never cared for using it on my phone, because once I have that in my hands, I might as well do it manually. But to do quick things via watch is another story.
Something I started googling this morning, but no answer yet - can I make a nickname for people (ie, wife) to help it avoid conflicts when I try to send her a text.
Also, I found you can't open an app on your phone via the watch (I guess it tries to launch an app on the watch).
I did try to make appointments & alarms (worked well). I'm going to be making an effort in the next few days to try to use it more & see how it goes.
I'm also very happy with the two together. Never use S-Voice before. Now I'm loving it !

For abbreviations its automatic.. Say "by the way" for example and the Gear types BTW. For smilies just say something like, " Hi smiley face" and your text will look like "Hi " on the other end. As a side note smile faces etc do not appear in the Gear when looking at a text message it will show : ). The Gear is also good at adding punctuation automatically but you can add what you want my simply saying it like "Hi exclamation point" becomes "Hi!"
