I have the AT&T SIII, and I can't set any notification tone for the calender if it wasn't included on the phone.
Example, if I set it to any tone that I have on the SD card, when I hit the home key, and relaunch the calender, it resets the tone to "on time". If I set the tone to one that was included, such as "harmonics", it sticks (even after a restart). I've tried force closing/clearing data from calender & calender storage, and also disabling/enabling both (along with restarts) to no avail...
Maybe it's just me, but after I tried to set a user generated tone, it also seemed to stop the calender reminders from functioning correctly.
Is anyone else seeing this issue or have a fix for me?
I just started noticing that whenever I receive a text, regardless of the sound profile, I receive no notification other than the 'new sms' symbol showing in the top bar. Also noticed that alarms make no sound/vibration when they are going off. I do receive sound/vibration notification for whatsapp, facebook, and emails. Installed LightFlow, set it to vibrate on texts, no luck. Phone is rooted, haven't done anything to it recently other than install games. Just made a nandroid backup.
really weird, so previously I have tried: battery pull, different types of resets, etc. but now after i made the nandroid, when my phone started up it started saying that there wasnt enough space. So I started deleting some old games/apps. Restarted the phone and everythings working perfect.
Hey guys my brand new phone has done this 3 times now. It randomly plays a ringtone that came with the phone but there is no call, the screen stays off when its playing unless i unlock it, the sound doesnt go away, theres nothing in the notifications panel, and the ringtone it's playing is not even the ringtone set on my phone. The only I can get it to stop is by restarting the phone. I really don't want to have to return it and get a new phone and go through setup again. Any advise guys?
found the problem. It was due to GO SMS Pro settings after their recent update. Seems like they broke the app and the way it works with the note 4.
I am no longer receiving text message or email notifications on my watch. It doesn't buzz/vibrate. When I check the cards, the messages are there, the watch just isn't vibrating to let me know. I've restarted the watch, and resynced applications, and then restarted the watch after I re-synced apps, still nada. I've tested sitting still at my desk, so it isn't that I'm not feeling the buzz, it just isn't buzzing. It is vibrating for phone calls though. Suggestions?

Instead of restarting watch, I would unpair watch (bluetooth) & then factory reset the watch
Thanks, I tried doing a factory reset twice now. But I didn't unpair it first. I did uninstall all my android wear apps, or a I thought I did... but after the factory reset, some of apps came back, a timer and stopwatch. But they don't have companion apps on the phone, so I'm not sure how to uninstall them. But, the problem persists. I did discover that, at least at this point, it is only when the phone is in vibrate or silent mode. If the phone is on regular mode, then I do get the text notifications. Once I put it on vibrate, thaen I stop getting the notifications.

OK, I figured out how to uninstall the apps, which I did, unpaired it, did a factory reset, started all over from scratch, to no avail. Still not getting text message notifications... actually, the text messages come through, just no vibration to alert me. Same with emails, I get the emails, but no vibration. Oddly, I do get my Gmail emails with vibration alert. But no vibration alert for the non-gmail emails. This is not a good thing.. one th the things I liked most about the watch was to know when text emails came through and quickly check if it was something that needed prompt attention.

Well, not sure what changed, but texts and mail vibrations are working again.. thankfully... the only thing I can think of on the texts was that I switched over to hangouts on my phone. That didn't work too well, but the vibration notifications were working, then I switched back to the built in application. But, at least its working..

Not exactly a solution that gets at the root of the problem, but have you tried a third party notification app? Something like Feel the Wear? I believe that overrides the default vibration settings completely. I say that because the app needs its own "quiet time" setting and/or manual mute from your phone. Simply muting the watch via the pulldown menu won't stop the vibrations from the app.
So if you're still having issues using your preferred apps and getting alerts, perhaps give that a try?
THanks for the suggestion, will check it out...
I have the same issue. Tried everything it will not give me alerts to email or text messages. Wish I could figure this out...
A couple of things to try, change your messaging to hangouts (or other app), and see if you start getting notifications. When I switched to hangouts, I started getting the text message alerts. Then, when I switched back to the default app on my phone, the alerts (vibrations) continued. I had also gone into settings on the phone, I think it was under sound-notifications ... there was something in there that had email notifications turned off. I hadn't touched those settings, so I don't know how it got changed, but I recall there was something that seemed incorrect. I don't know if that was part of the problem or not...

I had a similar problem with my watch but only with vibrating. I figured out my problem was that if your phone doesn't vibrate, your watch won't vibrate. It actually mirrors the vibrate including custom vibration.
I have just hit the same problem, any solution guys? I get phone call notifications but nothing else no email or text message notifications...
Same problem... I get cards but no vibration. New watch. Motor vibrates when powering on.
Whatsapp & SMS notifcations not working on Huawei Watch
Any clue guys on how to fix this, since last 2-3 weeks I have stopped getting just SMS & whatsapp notifications on my Huawei watch, everything else is working just fine....I reset my watch, restarted it and unpaired as well.
But nothing seems to be working for me...
please help !!
Thanks.
hi.i have the same problem with my alcatel smartwatch and redmi note 3 pro.one day it warks but i dident know how i done it.i try everything.
Hi, am new on this group.
I've purchased Vivo V9 a month back and I like this model. But, I am facing notifications issue in my Vivo V9.
Thing is, when I got notifications on Whatsapp, G-Mail, Missed Calls, Messages etc. so all of these notifications doesn't always shows up in the locked screen/notification tray etc. I am a freelancer and it's very important for me to keeping eye on my G-Mail, UpWork App (My Work Related App), Parallel Space (Using one useful clone app on this), Skype etc. But most of the times, I don't get any notifications on the locked screen even sometimes on the notification tray. I've checked with all the settings such as each app's notifications/permissions settings, general notification settings etc. everything. Even, restored my phone for two times. But, I always missed few of my important notifications. i.e. I've setup Whatsapp to show all the notifications one the locked screen, pop-up, notification tray etc. but whenever i got message on Whatsapp, it makes sound, popup appeared, showed in notification tray but doesn't show in locked screen.
Moreover, sometimes the notifications doesn't shows up even on a notifications tray.
I wanted to know that is somebody facing this kind of issue on this model? If so, what did you do to resolve this? Or, if someone has idea of all the possible reasons for this issue?
Thanks!
