WhatsApp on Wear 2.0? - Asus ZenWatch 3

I just updated to 2.0 after my holiday.
I was under the impression that with AW 2.0 I would be able to view photos and reply with a keyboard in WhatsApp, but I can't find both options.
Is that possible now or still not?

Not on my watch...

Not sure about the photo's as haven't really checked but replying is there, you should see a reply arrow at the bottom of the message preview.
It does seem a bit buggy though, doesn't always show up, if it's not there let it go back to watch face and try again.
After you hit the reply button you should see the reply options, far right is the keyboard option.
Stock keyboard is a bit small and cumbersome but you can use a replacement one.
I'm using TouchOne and works fairly well although some people had issues getting it to show.
you can find it by opening play store on your watch and searching for it.

4.2 known bugs

I thought it would be nice for both users and developers what to expect from next update to fix or be fixed. I'm gonna give a kick start to known bugs, so that we can be aware of the faults of 4.2. Don't shoot the things you didn't like here since it is nothing to do with this "bug" thread. Here I go..
1. I keep telling myself this should not be a bug since it is so obvious but there is no reason for it to be implemented that way. Which is the hour segment of lock screen time being bold and the other half is normal font.. Maybe there is a reason for this hopefully..
2. Pull down the notification bar from top, when it is down, pull down from the top most again. Notification center will continue going down and out of the screen. It applies for both quick settings and notification center.. Major bug! - 1 to googles test engineers.
Now you can add your own test cases and bugs and maybe we have great devs to sort them out and develop great custom roms..
I don't think either is a bug ,more or less design desicions. I actually like both things you mentioned

neither are bugs
last one you mentioned stops extending menus down the way when dpi is changed

I can understand the first one but you clearly didn't understand the second. This is a major bug because a layout goes out of screen. They seem to not lock pulling down from the top most of the screen when it is already pulled down.. Result; notification center goes out of the screen..

If you fling it down it stops ,then you can pull it all the way down or just fling it back up.trust me they designed it that way ,it's not a bug.

This is probably a feature Not really a bug..
But on the lock screen .. Long tap the clock quickly.. you will see a big square highlight the unlock button Slide to unlock . This will take you to a STOP WATCH TYPE INTERFACE..
I Was hoping there would be a way in there to change the stupid bold hour number . That is gross to look at ..
Just to try it i Created a 3rd user..From the lock screen then you log into that user account to set it up. When it gets the point it ask for user Name SU Pops up asking to grant permission .. then give a message ..
SuperSU has granted superuser permission :/system/bin/id
tried 3 times .. if you let it set on that screen you will get Supersu isnt responding .. You click ok then it will allow you to continue setting up the account.
The second account set up fine.. Just thought i would try a 3rd and look at directory structure..
Can someone try and see if its just me with the issue. It finally created the account. with a reboot. but its unstable .Thanks Erica
Youtube is borked with stereo (a2dp) bluetooth headsets - sync issues, laggy, scratchy. They have clearly done some changes to bluetooth audio (you can hear the bluetooth headset mute/come alive when there is a moment or two of no sound).
Can't log into gmail with another account in chrome.
I used to log into another account in chrome that I haven't bothered linking. I went to gmail in chrome (not requesting desktop version) and I was already logged into my primary account. It's never done that before. I thought no big deal and signed out. Now gmail continually loops on the address constantly refreshing but the site never actually comes up.
And not a bug, but I'm annoyed Nexus 7 didn't get miracast. Can't imagine the reason for that. And the what's new page isn't clear that it is only nexus 4. http://www.android.com/whatsnew/
Yes it does say "Share what’s on your phone on the big screen." but the rest of the text and the page makes it seem like these are 4.2 features and not exclusive to N4. I'm hoping custom roms will enable miracast.
Also, not a bug but a feature lost, the camera no longer has the funny faces (big nose, small eyes etc). ya I know a dorky feature but I don't see why it was removed. I know the nexus 7 didn't have the camera enabled by default but we have the new camera app so I assume other devices lost those as well.
Settings -> About tablet -> Status crashes, 100% of the time
Navigation never gets past "waiting for location" even though the icon on the status bar indicates a lock in. It works fine in the maps app.

Um....why does changing dpi to 160 in build.prop not flip to tablet mode? I have confirmed it reads that way in build.prop after reboot....
Help...i will have to revert...

Anybody else having issues with Gmail 4.2 not having pinch to zoom? I installed the ROM and did a factory reset. Still no pinch to zoom.
EDIT:
As it turns out, this option is in the settings. User error.

Thanks for the tip, I had a bit of a play. It looks like it's just the digital clock widget, it's probably just a matter of time before more lock screen widgets become available

I'm getting an issue when tethering via Bluetooth. This morning it was working fine, the update came down while I was tethered to my phone, after the install I can pair to my phone but it won't connect.
I've tried deleting the pairing on both, re-pairing, rebooting... Anyone else having a problem? Anyone else doing Bluetooth tethering?
edit: never mind, I worked it out, I had to go in and select that I wanted to use the "Internet Access" profile
Seems like realvnc doesn't like this new update crashes

Time signals (sounds) in Tizen

Hello,
I recently upgraded my gear to Tizen. It has been improved in almost all respects, but especially in battery consumption...
When gear still wore android, I could choose a tone for time signals, like the typical digital watch. Now there is no such option in Tizen and I find nothing, not a comment on the forums. I searched apps and they can do either.
Do you know if there are any changes you make it?
Greetings.
If it's an hourly chime you're after try Multiwatch. I use it in silent mode just for the different faces as it's highly configurable (with loads of great
features) - but it also has an hourly chime with a choice of tones. You'll find it in the Gear store.

Thank you!! It is exactly I was looking for, it is even better. And sorry, I didn't know how to say "hourly chime".
The only problem is the home screen does not show new messages like default tizen home screen. I am forced to enter the menus to see messages or missed calls. If not for this, it would be perfect
Keep looking
Thank you.
Glad that helped! I think a number of people have asked the dev for a notifications widget on the watch face - and whilst I understand there may be some challenges with this - hopefully we'll see that on Multiwatch at some point.

Facebook messenger

Issue where the full message doesn't show and you can't scroll left like regular messenger to read the full message because it just goes to the "like" thumbs up icon. Any fix or work around for this?
Same thing here. I think we'll have to wait for fb to update the app.

Hi
The software works as advertised. Thanks for the excellent software. However, this is my wishlist:
In Whatsapp and Telegram notifications, the profile picture of the person who sent the message doesn't not appear on the watch if i use Quick for Wear. However, the picture appears if i disable Quick and use the standard Whatsapp
There is no emoji keyboard or no way to use at the same time Quick reply and draw an emoji feature of Google wear
This is limitation for Android Wear. If someones send a picture in Whatsapp, I only get a notification but i cannot see the image on the watch. I don't know if someone could write an app or if you can add this to Quick
Also a limitation of Android Wear (and not related to Quick), you can only reply to messages and not create a new message. I hope Google can implement this later
Again, Thank you for this app. Being able to reply to messages on the watch is great )

Let me answer you point to point:
This is normal. We have picture mirroring planned but not implemented yet.
You can actually access an emoji list long pressing the lightning icon
This could be done, but I'm not sure it would be a good idea to bring it in Quick. I'll investigate
This can be done only with root and xposed at the moment

Thanks for answers. I didn't know about the emoji, very handy I will be waiting for the picture mirroring
Too bad i cannot root my S6 without tripping Knox so xposed is out of the question at the moment. Sending a SMS or hangout is not as popular as Whatsapp here

Do you have planned to add the number 4? It would be very cool if I can send messages without waiting for somebody to message me and Instead just open an app in my watch and send it directly.
Enable issue
Just bought the app recently but can't seem to enable the notification/app. Currently using the Huawei p8w 5.0.1 with a moto 360 v1.
After selecting the app for notifications, it still shows up as "Disabled"
Tried changing the notification settings but still not working, app isnt showing up on my watch either.
Anyone with the same issue?

try restarting your phone. the state you see there is directly changed by the operating system, so if it's not changing, it's because the phone is not giving permissions to access notifications to the app.

Not really, Quick was projected as a no-root solution. Wear Messenger has an xposed module and antiviruses keep throwing false alarms on it. (and the 360 security support is not doing anything). I don't want the same plague to kill Quick.

Yes, please keep it as a non-root solution. Or in case you ever implemented it, maybe use a two programs solution: one normal and one root

Hey ! I own the Moto 360 2nd and "Quick for Wear".
Problem: I enabled the keyboard but if i get a whatsapp message i cant repley with keyboard
WHY? pls help me.
Hi
Sometimes, the toggle for Quick for Wear is set by itself to disable, However, the toggle is still on in the notification access settings. I have to re-enable it to start receving notifications on the watch.
It is totally random

About point 3, I don't know if it's possible but it would be awesome if you can add it. Maybe a good way to open the image and not make the conversation difficult to read is, when someone send an image you will see in the chat: Image, and when you tap on it you see the image.
I don't know how difficult it would be, I really like your work with that app, as bought it some days ago and I'm so happy with it but if you can add it the app will be just perfect.
Pd: Sorry for my English, I'm from Spain and I'm still studying it hahaha

Android auto messaging

Anyone else having this problem?
Using nexus 6p fully stock running 6.0.1 on the latest android auto.
Problem is when a new message comes in and it is read or replied to, it still shows new message. So when you get lets say 5 messages from the same person it keeps reading them all from the beginning. So I have to hear the whole conversation every time.
I have looked at all the permissions and all in the 6p but nothing works.
Thanks
+1 on this. I'm also having the same issue. Also with a nexus 6p stock 6.0.1
Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
hah. I was hoping this thread was longer and had an answer as I'm having the same issue.
I have a Nexus 6P w/ 6.0.1 stock but rooted. Phone works fine and I use it with a Pioneer 8100NEX w/ the 1.05 firmware. I'm not sure if it's Messenger that is at issue or the version of Android Auto currently out but I had to listen to 12 messages from the wife to get to the new one before I lost my patience and unplugged the phone from the head unit .. marked the messages as read through Messenger and reconnected it.
Are you folks using Google Messenger, Hangouts or another app? Is Android Auto just not able to mark the messages as read in the message db? I'm not sure what the issue is.
I'm using Google messenger. I contacted google about the issue and they said they are aware of it and are working on a fix from there end. I can see an update to android auto soon with the issue resolved

I wonder if this bug is also present when using Hangouts as the SMS/MMS client or if it's AA accessing the sqlite db where the messages are being kept. Any idea?

No idea but if I had to guess I'd say it's to do with AA accessing messages. I've also noticed when you give AA notification access it automatically turns if off again so I'm guessing that's also part of the issue. I also asked if google planned to implement the ability to use "ok google" instead of pressing the voice button. The AA team replied saying it's also something they are looking at. I think this would be a great feature then you wouldn't have to take your hands off the wheel at all
Nn
I'm not sure if that's better or worse than what is going on now.. Only the first received van be read, the rest it seems like it's reading but stays silent.
