1. You can get notifications by enabling it on gear manager -> notifications -> more notifications -> tick any app youd like.
2. Maybe firmware update will fix it. Check in gear managee.
3. Afaik you wont get much use for youtube on the gear without a null rom with bluetooth internett teethering. But you can backup youtube app from phone with astro/es fileexplorer and sideload them from pc. There are tutorials on how to sideload in the forums.
Hope this helps mate

Notifications are missing. Galaxy Gear with Nexus 5

Ok, So I have have a Galaxy Gear and Nexus 5, I can answer phone calls, change my clock, etc. I have enabled Gmail, Facebook notifications on in both ATN Notifications and Gear Manager 1.6.132701 but nothing is coming through. Any suggestions.
Thanks

Those are the exact steps I did but I still can't get notifications to work.

I'm in the same boat. Followed the directions 100% and all I can do is call.

Could be that Samsung patched the vulnerability

I've spent hours and hours trying to get things right on the n5 and gear. No such luck. Was able to connect and receive calls and transfer images sometimes. Notifications never worked unless using a third party app like tablet notifier. With tablet notifier using null ROM, I didn't need to use any gear manager to get that to work. The answering calls and transferring photos won't work. Just notifications do.

My gear works perfectly with Nexus 5. I followed the instructions here (http://pocketnow.com/2014/02/07/galaxy-gear-with-the-nexus-5) and it works. make sure you dont miss step 12 (and follow all steps in order). also use the ATN Manager from post #13 from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2596455&page=2

Have you set the security setting allowing ATN manager to receive notifications?

I had to use the .111801 version to get calling, contacts and photo transfer to work. Also i got Atn manager 1.2.2 to work, not 1.2.3

WORKING!
For those that are using other device and not Samsung Devices....
OK I was able to get this working and I will try my best to explain it for everyone so you can understand:
Uninstall any versions of ATNManger you already have installed
Install ATN Manager 1.2.2 on your "Phone" (In my case, Nexus 5), apk HERE
Install the "Watch.apk" inside ATN Manager 1.2.3.1_pre.apk on your "Galaxy Gear", apk HERE
Go to settings on your "Phone" and find security, inside there find "Notification Access" make sure ATN Manager is checked
Open ATN Manager on you "Phone" and check all apps that you want to get notifications from (example: Gmail, Hangouts, Google+, Facebook)
You should now get notifications on all of your apps that you checked, my wife even gets them for all her games.
Too bad it only lets you know you got a message and then you have to go to phone to see it, but you still get the notification if say your phone is on silent. Would be great if we could make this work from Nexus 5 through GearManager as it is better but no luck there for me.
Also while I am at it, here is how to get the WatchStyler app working so you can change your watch faces:
Open GearManager on your "Phone"
Connect to your Galaxy Gear
Click on Clocks to see the list of clocks
With Clocks open hit your home button to minimize Gear Manager
Install latest WatchStyler app (1.1.00) from HERE
Open WatchStyler app
Now open GearManager (that is still running) and you will then see the WatchStyler option, choose it
Make a new watch face in WatchStyler and then open GearManager
Choose the Gear next to WatchStyler and choose the watch face you just made and choose apply
You should now see your new watch face on your Galaxy Gear
Hope this helps everyone.

[Q] New Gear User: Can't find installed apps

Hi XDA, I'm new to the gear and new to the forum. I just followed a guide on how to sideload apps using ADB. I am able to successfully install these apps, but am not able to see them on the list of apps on my phone or on my Gear when they are paired. If I disconnect the gear from my phone and reset the gear, I'm able to see these apps. Does anybody have any idea?
I also installed NOVA and then changed the default of the home button to always be touchwiz (since I want my Gear to be more like a watch and not a mini tablet), but have no way to go to Nova unless I disconnect and reset my Gear. Any ideas or help? Thanks.

I've noticed this too. My gut feeling is that its going into gear manager on my phone that does it as that only lists the conventionally installed apps rather than the side loaded ones.

I'm having the exact same issue.
If I reboot my watch with bluetooth off, my sideloaded apps show up with no issues. The second I enable bluetooth and my watch and phone connect, the apps get hidden. Are there any solutions to this problem?

Samsung Gear App crashes

Anyone by chance using a Samsung fitness tracker with the corresponding Gear Android App? Initially it worked when setting the connection up, but now it crashes everytime I click the app icon... De- and reinstalled it but with no success...

I had the same problem with the Gear software, not with a fitness tracker but in junction with Gear 2 Neo. I didn't figure out what caused the problem.
- I factory-resetted the watch with and without reinstalling a backup.
- I deleted the app and cache data of the software on phone, including a factory reset of the watch.
All leaded to the same behaviour I was unable to get past the main screen in the Gear software. I was not able to change watch preferences, app preferences (some apps have further settings) or doing any further actions in the sub menu's.
So I blame the Gear software being buggy.
At the end I converted the Gear 2 Neo from Tizen to Android Wear 6 and disabled the Gear software completely.

Have the same issue on my P8max with a Gear S2. But I found out by accident (during a reboot of the S2) that the app starts up correctly when disconnected from the handwrist device. Thereafter you can connect and use the app. So whenever you need to use the app disconnect, start the app and connect is a workaround (although a very annoying one).

Question Watchfaces installing but not showing in Samsung Wear App?

As far as I know, I'm running the latest software on my Pixel 7 Pro (Galaxy Wear app) and on my watch Galaxy Watch 5 Pro. I install it from the Playstore in a browser to install to my watch but in the download section of my watch face options, they never show. This is a recent issue so I uninstalled everything and reset my watch, still the same. I can select the watch face using my watch but it never shows in the wearable app. What gives?

Same here. Some kind of bug, the dial after purchase / download is in the watch, but is not displayed in Galaxy Wear !!!!

Noticed this as well, needs a fix in next update....

I also have this problem.

Yesterday I wrote to support about the problem, today everything has been fixed. Now everything works as before...
