Greetings all.
I have two small issues and was curious if anyone else experienced them.
1) Every once in a while, I will have a missed call notification card on the watch and can't swipe it away (to the right). I can expand it up but basically can't get rid of it. A restart of the watch seems to do the trick. I've tried clearing the phone call history but that doesn't seem to help.
2) Secondly, Every once in a while I get a phantom alarm on the watch. I think it's a (watch) alarm I set a few weeks back via a voice "wake me up at 10:00am" command. Are these kept in a different spot that the normal phone alarms?
I'm almost thinking of doing a wipe of the watch and re-syncing my apps just to freshen up everything.
Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
Scott
I found the old alarm...I just wasn't looking in the right spot.
However, I still get that missed call card problem from time to time. Even swiping left and going to close "close card" doesn't work. Anyone else get this?

I love the Moto X. Wanted one when it was first announced and I ended up buyiing the VZW DevEd through the Black Friday sale. Lately I have been having a lot of problems with my phone and Im not sure what is going on and if it is an app update or a system problems but I'll describe the issues I am having and will let you guys suggestion ideas of how to fix it.
1) When ever I open up the stock contacts app it is always saying "Contacts list is being updated". Some times I'll open it up and I can see all the contacts listed correctly but when I select a contact to view its details I just get a blank screen.
2) This might be due to the contacts app, but when every I receive a phone call from a known contact the phone app only provides me with the phone number and not exactly who the caller is as defined in the contacts. Also when I receive a phone call while the phone is locked with the screen off the screen does not light up but the ring tone is played. Even picking up the phone does not light up the screen. I have to hit the lock button which silences the phone then hit it again to light the screen up then I can select answer or end call. Thats all hoping the caller is still callling me as this process takes a while.
3) Kind of the samething above but with the stock clock app and an active alarm. The phone has been super laggy that I can't silence or snooze and alarm in the morning quickly. I have to place my finger on the ring wait a few seconds to see it light up that I have selected the ring then I can move it to dismiss or snooze. When I select one of those options and let go it will pause on the screen and stay light for 10 seconds and then the selection will process correctly
4) This may be subjective but I think my battery life right now is really bad. I check the battery stats and it seems fine but when I use it the battery seems to drain really fast.
5) This isn't subjective. Everything is laggy from loading an app to displaying the recently used apps. I've tried uninstalling things, disabling things, enabling things and nothing seems to work. Its especially laggy when going from phone locked screen off to the home screen. It is no where as responsive as it once was. I was even down to 4GB of storage left out of 32GB so I cleared a bunch off the SD card and still its laggy.
So what do you guys think? Should I reset the phone or has someone experienced something similar and knows how to fix it. FYI, I am using Apex Pro as my launcher.

Try resetting your phone, if that doesn't work, then talk to motorola support. This stuff shouldn't happen and I'm sure Motorola's support team will be happy to help you.

So I think I fixed the problem last night with out resetting the phone based on something I mentioned here. I stated that I'm using Apex as my launcher. Not sure why I didn't think of this before, but last night I decided to change back to the stock launcher and closed out of apex in the recent apps menu. Everything got super snappy when going from view to view and launching apps. I then loaded Apex back up and it all seemed to work just fine. This morning when my alarms went off I didn't experience the problem that I was describing about above.
So I'm going to consider this issue fixed, however I will keep an eye on it to see if it comes back.
I'm no longer getting vibrations on my wrist with my Gear Live. I haven't touched anything, but they just stopped. The motor does work however, I've tested it using the Phone Finder app. I've tried resetting the device, restarting the device, and making sure that it's not on mute. I can't seem to find settings for this anywhere; could someone help me out?
Edit: I love how as soon as I post this, vibration starts working again..
Could it be that certain apps aren't getting the thing to vibrate, but others are? Anyone else getting vibration notifications with Textra?
I swear vibration didn't work every time. It's so faint though that even when it does, I don't notice it

Do you get Textra to work without. Contact + ?
Watch not vibrating for text messages
I noticed my Gear Live wasn't vibrating for text messages. It seemed random whether or not it vibrated for text messages. It vibrated normally for all other notifications. I have now discovered (and I believe and hope it's a software issue) that my watch will vibrate every time for incoming texts if and only if my phone is set to silent or ring mode. If the phone is set to vibrate, my watch will not vibrate for incoming texts. My Phone is a Samsung Galaxy S4 on the Verizon network running Android 4.4.2. I have tried rebooting, powering down andback on, and even a factory reset all resulting in no change of behavior. Is this similar to what you were experiencing? Anyone else experiencing this?
Text message vibration not working
I also noticed I'm not getting a vibration for text messages. Not sure why, I've had the watch for a week now and this just started a day or so ago. I've also restarted and reset to factory settings with no luck. If anyone knows of the issue, please post. Thanks!

Not sure if it's a permanent fix or not, but I actually shut my phone down completely (Samsung GS4) and turned it back on. I did a couple test text messages and the watch is picking up the messages and vibrating again. Again, this could just be a band-aid but it did seem to work.
I'm sure its something everyone has experienced, they hear their phone go off and check and nothing is there.
It happens to me every now and then, but It feels like its happening more frequently. Today I left my phone in another room and herd it go off twice but when I went to go check it was cleared. I know I herd it for sure, it was my Metal Gear ! Sound as well as my Ring Doorbell Sound.
Is there some kind of Notification Logger? Even if they are cleared.
To be honest, I have never had any issue as you describe
I had something similar, but some notifications would disappear after about 5 minutes or so. I had to turn off app power monitor in order for my notifications to stay. Although, I never had an issue with them disappearing instantly. I know also weather updates can make sounds, so that can also possibly be it. At the time before I found out about the app power monitor problem, I had installed an app called notisave and it would save every notification I would receive. Hope this helps.
I had similar, i downloaded an app called Notification History and it would show them, it was one weird app that did it but i don't recall exactly why or how.
there is also a phone setting that says "show most recent notifications only" make sure that's not on
I once disabled google assist or whatever it's called and it helped. After a few updates I abled it again. Seems some of their updates does this.
My phone randomly talks something about the time, I'm not getting what she saying (woman voice).
Talkback option is off, I checked that one.
What is this, this is so annoying and creepy.
This is not the first bug, since I bought this phone.
Anyone can help me?
Something put into clock settings?
I found this similar problem, I have exactly the same:
"A couple days ago I started hearing a womans voice at random times, like I had butt dialed someone, but I could Identify where it was coming from. Then while I was scrolling on my phone I hear something something "time". Finally in the middle of the night when everything else was quiet I hear it clear as a bell. A robotic female voice saying "it is time". No notification. No background apps running. I've done a few things to check those things and can't find anything. It is slightly annoying. But more so, creepy AF. Any help would be appreciated."
It's Big Brother sending you subliminal messages
Don't see what it could be other than a notification related thing...something you already forgot that you enabled. There are SO many settings, I doubt I could bring my phone to the same exact config after a factory default.
Try using the notification history feature to track this ghost down.
This sounds like an accessibility setting turned on to me

Ah, yes. That must be it. Good thinking.
I'm betting that you will find the culprit in Bixby Routines. It's under Advanced features.
your question is your phone talks about time, for that u will have to search on google ..
I tried everything, but couldn't helped. I did a factory reset. I always hate to do that, because It takes to much time to put back everything and set up, but at least it helped.
Thanks to everyone.
Ever since I have had this handset I am not notified when I get a call on WhatsApp.
On my old OnePlus, if someone rang it would wake up my screen and in full screen.
I have my phone on silent usually but still used to get the full alert in my old phone. On this phone, I have to unlock the phone and click in the top bar to see someone is calling me.
Ive fiddled with notifications and alerts but no joy.
Any ideas?
Application such as CCleaner can supress application notifications, if you have used it, try removing it from your Device. You can also try resetting notifications to default to fix this.
