Hey guys, so I've been trying to resolve this issue that I've been having with my SGS3 today. Whenever I receive a text message it comes to the device and I can read it fine. The only problem is; is that I don't receive any notifications and they're always set to read, so I can't even see them through my DashClock extension. This is kind of a big deal, because I happen to text a lot with friends, and family, and they get kind of pissed when i reply an hour later once I finally open up the Messaging app and see I got a message.
Thanks!
UPDATE ------ This was being cause by the AT&T Messages app. It was installed on the device but not set up and it was blocking Notifications from other SMS applications (Ex. FB Messenger or Stock Messages)
I can't for the life of.me figure out how. I started using Hello sms, but all it does is open the reply on my phone or acknowledge I received the text. I also can't get hangouts to even open on my watch.
Along the same lines, anyone know of a keyboard that works on the watch? TIA

I have a Nexus 5 using Hangouts sms. When I get a notification on my 360 I swipe up to read message. Swipe left and I get the messages in that sms thread. Swipe left again and I get *Reply*. Tap on that and get the microphone. Swipe up and get *Canned* responses. :victory:
Can you read text messages that are still on your phone from your watch? I recently saw that you can read through your phones text messages on the Samsung Gear watch, wondering if we can do that.

only when you receive a notification. unless there's a messaging app that also installs an app on the watch, there isn't a method for reading your messages. and you'll only be able to see the messages from the user who messaged you. and if you receive more than one photo, you'll only get a preview of the latest photo.
I just received my watch today and noticed whenever I receive a text message I don't have the option to read it. The only options I see are reply, mark ad read, call, open on phone,and block.
Is this normal or am I missing some settings?
Any suggestions or help is appreciated.
Thanks
You just have to tap the text message and then scroll up and down to read.

I'm using the textra app as my message app.
After additional research I found out that the watch is basically a mirror of the phone (on the notification part), so if I wanted the conversation on the watch, I'll have to enable that in textra too. I have textra set to not show text message on the phone (a privacy setting). Whenever I get a text message on the phone it'll just show xx # of text message I would then press on the notification to see who texted me.
In the end I enabled show message in textra, now I can see the messages on my watch.
hi,
i didn't get to finish the title. i just got a 5x, and previously have had an n5. both seem to have the same problem with the native android messaging app (used to be messenger, now it's android messages). anyway, if i'm talking on the phone, i get no audible notification of an incoming text. i get them for emails, map directions, etc, but not the texts.
i believe i tried this query a couple years ago, to no avail. i'm just checking to see if anyone knows of a setting i can try to accommodate this simple request, without having to download some third party messaging app.
thanks

When I'm on a call, I get a silence all notifications icon on the top of my phone. I prefer to not hear anything, I'd check in the phone app settings.
