I have the lg urbane and I love it there's just one thing that bugs me. In the notifications I get a few saying a certain time to a destination for example I have one saying 26 minutes to work. Is there a way to stop this popping up. I would like to keep turn by turn navigation on so I can still use it on my watch but just block the pop ups?

Okay folks, I wonder if anyone out there can help... My One is randomly vibrating once, with no notification, and I can't figure out why.
Other threads point to similar issues but not the same problem I have. I've been troubleshooting a lot, but can't narrow it down much. What I know so far:
Appears random. Not a particular time, battery level etc
No notifications appear in the bar. It can happen even when I'm looking at the phone and there is no visual indicator.
I have a Pebble watch, so most notifications can and do come through to the watch - no notifications on it when the vibrate happens.
It also doesn't seem to be any kind of dropped Bluetooth connection with my Pebble, as the Pebble doesn't notify of a lost connection like it normally would.
I have also read threads for other HTC phones where it pointed to nfc being switched on. While I do usually leave NFC on, the vibrate still happens even when I disabled NFC
.
I was holding off until Vodafone decide to release the Sense 6 update, but I'm not holding my breath there...
Is there anything that I could investigate? I was trying to avoid rooting or modding the phone for as long possible, but would be prepared to do it. However, I don't really fancy going down that road if the problem will still be there.
Suggestions appreciated!

If your phone is not modified in any way, the best thing to do is take it to service
Can't think of a good sig
Hey, Group...
Got my Gear 2 Neo a few months ago....I expected some "growing pains" out of a new system (and I haven't been disappointed)...but I guess my first question is:
Where The Aitch-Ee-Double-Toothpicks are the *SECONDS*?
Whose Bright Idea was it to eliminate those nasty, useless seconds from the Clock? (same people that want to get rid of the Penny, I'm betting)
This is a *WATCH*...not a *Sundial*!
I want to use one of the basic clocks...they are clean and easy to read...but unless I get some weird Retro LCD Clockface...or an Analog...I can't seem to get *seconds*....It's obviously possible *to* display them (other faces have 'em)...why not the Stock Clock? What gives??? (*pant*pant*pant*)....okay...I'm a little better, now.
But seriously...I repair Medical equipment for a living; that often relies on synchronized data.....I need to be able to set those devices *accurately*...not "Aww...plus-or-minus a couple of minutes is fine!"
So...that's the first question (okay...I guess it was more of a Rant *blushes*)....the Second Question is.....is there anyplace to actually *interact* with the Tizen Devs? I went to the Tizen site...and I thought they made it pretty clear that if you're not a Dev...they really don't want to hear from you.)
Ive got nothing against Hacking (running People's ROM on my Galaxy S3)...but if you don't *need* to hack it...why bother?
Okay...next ones are regarding Apps (or the lack thereof):
Does anyone know of an App that will turn *off* the Inertia Sensor for a specific period of time? Specifically, I'd like to wear my Neo to bed...but every time I move in my sleep, it turns on, and ticks my wife off...so turning the Intertia sensor off between, say, 10PM and 6AM would be *awesome*! (Obviously, turning it on from the "Home" Button would still work)
And...I know this is an Issue...because I've seen some other posts about it, but no Solutions....is there a way to make the Weather app update more than twice a day? I flat *cannot* force it to update, unless I reset *everything* (Watch and phone)
I guess the corollary to that question is: Do any of you guys know of anyone Developing a Weather App *besides* AccuWeather? (I'd *love* to see WeatherBug do one...but that prolly won't happen...they can't fit Ads onto the Watch face...)
Thanks in advance, guys (and gals)...I'm really not a raving lunatic (most of the time) :silly:
I can't address all these issues but generally seconds are left off of stock watch faces to save battery. I just turned off the motion action altogether because the watch turned on at very weird times whether I was sleeping or not. I got used to using the button to see the time very quickly.
I know that is not a help but there you are.

The Weather channel has an app for the watch, although it doesn't have the option of adding it to the clock "window".
I use the sleep tracker at night and it has an option to have it turn on Block mode and that keeps the watch from coming on when moving in your sleep, as well as coming on for any notifications from your phone.
not sure on the Tizen development question though.
Why does my Moto X forget the time and date when I turn off mobile data to try and claw back a little battery life? Is it that reliant on data that it can't even do the simplest tasks like remember the date?! It thought it was February 9th and 8:54 up until a few minutes ago...
You can set it to follow a time and date you set, or that sent from the carrier. I guess you're on the latter, and the lack of carrier updates prevent it from continuing. Try the former and let us all know.
This phone is getting dumber.
Moto Voice no longer works.
When the alarm goes off I have to wave my hand over it so much that I may as well get up rather than have that extra snooze and when it does eventually go into snooze mode and my arm is worn out from waving the screen stays on for 5 of the 10 minutes.
Time for something new and less annoying. Any suggestions? I like the look of the LG V10, but it doesn't appear to be available in the UK through official channels, only iffy looking resellers...

Try doing a factory reset and start fresh. That usually fixes random annoyances that you explained.
That'll be a lot of hassle only to find out it still doesn't work, as I suspect will be the case. You only have to look at the Play Store reviews for Moto voice to see that various updates have made it unusable for a lot of owners. Mine just doesn't listen to what I'm saying and just says "Let's talk later" all the time. Can't really see it doing much for the phone not snoozing and leaving the screen on after the alarm goes off either. I know the sensors are fine, as the time is displayed if I wave my hand over it at any other time...
I just think Motorola have made various poor updates to this phone and I think I'll just put it out to pasture and get myself a new toy.
So, haven't had much time to play and learn yet, and this is my first smart watch. But I did try sending emails and text via the watch. If my screen is on, it works, if it is off it fails.
My phone is a Note 4, with an MM Rom. I'm wondering if Doze or something is the problem.
When I was setting up the app, it did go through an option to let the Zen software run in the background, and I allowed that.
Any thoughts?

I am not sure if I really understand your question.. are you talking about phone screen or watch screen?
Also for notifications like text you don't need to have Zenwatch app at all, its a core feature of AW. I am using it (& Moto 360 gen 1 before) with my S7 on MM and doze shouldn't cause any issue.
Ah, I just read the thread title, it gives more info
I would say factory reset your watch from the Android Wear app on the phone and try to pair again. I have done it a bunch of times with my Moto 360 but haven't tried with this one yet. It should work though, I'll try on mine and report back.

Well, I reset my watch. I still get the message "Try again on your phone" . But, I found that the email in fact did send. So not sure what's up with that. Will be interesting to see what you find.
Oh, another thing. I find quite a delay between my phone ringing and it ringing at the watch. I'll have to do some experimentation, but I'm not sure it will ring long enough for me to answer it at the watch. Not that I plan to do that much, but, anyway...seems like maybe the interaction time between the watch and phone is not very good.
Hey sorry for replying so late, but as expected, calls and texts work just as they should. Were you able to sort out issues on your end?
About the delay, I think there has always been a little delay for calls to show up on watch (at least that was the case with my moto 360), delay on this is the same. It does vary a little bit from time to time, sometimes it very little sometimes a bit longer but that's just wireless connectivity imo. But in no case its long enough that call would stop ringing and go to voicemail.

I need to do some testing with calls. I don't even know for sure how to answer at the watch.
I find that the watch gives me the error message, but does send the text.
I'm having real problems with my phone when hooked to the watch. I'm going to open a thread on that topic now.
I just got Android Wear 2.0 on my Zenwatch 3 and I'm sorry to say Assistant and gestures are lot worst now.
First of all, i'm italian, and Assistant poorly recognise italian lenguage.
I use to use smartwatch especially when i'm driving or when i'm on my work bike (i'm a pony express) so I need a device I can use touchless.
Wear 2.0 lost some gestures as the on to go ahead to funcion like "reply" or "delete" in messages (the ones used pushing down or pulling app your wirst) so now i must to touch the screen for everything.
About Assistant: i often use it to send Telegram messages just by telling Google Now (obviously in italian) "send Telegram message to SomeoneX" followed by the message instead.
Now, if i tell "Ok Google. Send a Message to (ex.) Mark" assistant shows me "to whom?"... anda I say "Mark"... "to whom?"... "MARK!"... "to Whom?"... IN A FU****G LOOP!
jUST i CAN'T USE MY SMARTWATCH WITHOUT MY HANDS ANYMORE!
Before I even get started, I know CM13 is outdated/discontinued/insecure. I'm aware, I'm stuck with it for a while.
I've been trying to get the notification LED on my phone to work the way I want. I had no problems doing this with Light Flow on my old Samsung GS4. Things were not so peachy until I was reminded Cyanogenmod has built in controls for the notification LED. I have everything set up just the way I want it, it demos just fine when I'm punching in the settings. The problem is it won't work reliably when I set my phone down.
With my GS4, if the screen was off and I had notifications, the LED blinked accordingly. My N6P doesn't do that. I've caught it blinking a few times throughout my day, and had friends send me notifications while it's sitting on my desk, so I know it works sometimes. But the LED won't stay that way forever, eventually it just decides my notifications aren't important enough to me and stops blinking.
I'm having a hard time really pinning down it's logic because it seems to just work when it wants to. I have a theory that the way the 6P is really aggressive about saving battery, whatever service controls the LED is being woken up when a new notification comes in and eventually being put back to sleep, but I simply don't know enough to say. While I'm at it, I don't think I have any way of assigning priority to the different notifications (a text message is more important than an email, for example), so my color code scheme might as well go out the window.
I don't know why google seems to hate the notification LED so much, every time I try to google the issue I just get tons of pages telling me how Google hid it away and you can turn it back on in the settings for AOSP. Obviously none of that is helpful, maybe someone here has an answer?
@FoxtrotZero: Wrong forum. This is the Nexus 6 forum. Your device is here.
GFDI, didn't even know there was another device called the Nexus 6. Thanks.
