[Q] Maps notifications not working - Moto 360

So I looked around and played with my phone and I cant figure this out
When I first got the watch I tested out the navigation and while using google maps I received notifications on my watch while driving (vibrates and lights up when a turn comes up ). The past week I have tried twice to use maps and a card shows on my watch telling me where to go, but it never vibrates to alert me when there is a change or turn etc. coming up.
I have uninstalled maps, re installed, reboot both devices, reset the watch, cleared data / cache. Nothing seems to get the notifications working. Is anyone else having issues or know what might be causing this?
Alerts are enabled on the watch, and I checked to make sure I didn't block the app by accident

SW3 doesn't display notifications

Hi,
about 2 day ago my SW3 stopped displaying notificaions like Facebook Messenger, SMS (stock application), calls. I tried reinstalling everything - factory reset, reinstalling Android Wear application etc. It helped for some time but after few hours it stopped displaying notifications again.
Google Now works, Coffee (SMS) works but stock SMS or calls or Messenger aren't display on my wrist.
I'm not 100% sure (I tried new ROM) but I believe that I wasn't changed anything. Android Wear application was upgraded twice and it's name was changed, could it be the reason?
I haven't install any new application.
Aby idea?
Thanks.
P.S. I have Samsung S6 with custom ROM. SW3 is on stock.
Are the notifications displaying on the phone in the Notification bar?? If not, then it's a problem with the phone and the ROM. New ROM may be blocking notifications. I have Notification Manager in my Settings which allows me to change notifications. The watch will only display notifications that appear on the phone.
Did you make sure to enable Notification Access in the phone's settings?
The designer can disable notifications in the watchface, could that be it?

I could see the notification in the bar and everything was enabled.
Now, although I didn't made any change it started working again well. I don't understand...
Thanks for trying to help.
Guessing its the rom
It sounds similar to the problems I am experiencing. Everything works fine for a few hours after a factory reset, but then I am stuck with no notifications from Gmail, Hangouts stops syncing new messages, no remote controls for Play Music, etc. There is still connection with the phone... Find My Phone still works, Ghostracer still syncs my runs (eventually).
I've tried several factory resets and still it happens every time. The watch was working great until a few weeks ago, very frustrating.
I have exactly the same problems as above.
Smartwatch 3 and Note 4 - both stock. They work for a few hours together after a reboot and then the notifications stop appearing on the phone.
I turn off notifications to android wear and turn it back on again and its ok for a little while and then stops working again.
Anyone got any ideas?
A bit of an update to this. I've now managed to get mine back up and running reasonably well - to the point its been running ok for 2 days. Previously it would only be an hour or two until it stopped sending notifications to the watch.
I deleted the Android Wear App
I performed a factory reset on the watch
Re-install android wear.
Pair watch
It then went through and installed all my apps and since then has worked fine.
I've figured it out. It was caused by restoring nandroid backup in TWRP.
Solution: go to the application manager on the phone, all applications. Find Google services and delete all data including wear storage.
The watch will be forgotted and you have to pair it again but everything should work well.
I was just about to reply to this again as although above I said it was working fine I managed to get it to break again.
The only difference was that I had changed to a non sony watchface.
As soon as i started using a 3rd party one i was getting the same problems again
I've been back on a builtin watchface for a while and its been working fine.
I've just swapped back to a 3rd party one to see how long it works for.

Notification and Connection Issues; Smartwatch 3 Works Fine

I've had a Smartwatch 3 for a couple years without any issues. The watch connects without me doing anything, and notifications come through at the same time as my phone.
I bought a Huawei Watch Tuesday, went through the two system updates, and then did not receive notifications. A factory reset fixed that for about 36 hours.
Since then, I've done about 10 factory resets, tweaking settings in the Wear app and on the watch each time. Sometimes, I could get the watch to receive notifications temporarily. That would stop after an hour or so. Pushing one of the sample notifications from the Wear app doesn't work, but most of the time I can change the watch face from the Wear app. Other weird things:
-Sometimes the Wear app will show nothing. Not even give me options to add a device.
-When I click "Calling Setup" on the watch, sometimes it will ask me to give Message+ (the Verizon messaging app) permission. Whether I accept or not, it will eventually tell me the watch isn't connected to the phone (even though the Wear app says it is).
Today, I exchanged the watch, and am having the same issues (and the grey circle where the charging icon appears won't go away). I really, really want to be able to use this watch, so any help would be very much appreciated. Here's a quick rundown of what I've tried so far:
-Cleared Wear app data and cache.
-Removed Smartwatch 3 and Huawei watch from app thinking it might be confused with 2 in there. Re-added the Smartwatch 3 independently after this, and it still worked.
-Checked permissions on phone and watch.
-Removed Google Play Music playlist, thinking syncing may have been bogging it down.
-Switched default text apps.
-Uninstalled Wear app.
-Tried different Watchmaker faces.
Watch and phone (LG G3 on Verizon) are running Marshmallow.
Can you think of any experiments before I give up?
Uninstall Wear and re-install. Then resync and pair the watch again.
Thats all I can think of.
As an update, I cleared cache in each app on my phone individually and uninstalled non-essential Wear apps. This has notifications flowing normally.
However, if I disconnect the phone/watch for any reason, it takes hours for notifications to start coming in again.
Any thoughts on how to trigger notifications after reconnecting? Toggling the connection and options in the Wear app doesn't help. I can't figure out what eventually allows notifications again.
Hi guys, I have problem with incoming notifications on my watch after the watch is not paired with my smartphone a few hours.

I think we're experiencing the same thing. I bet if you gave it a few hours, you would start to receive notifications. I wonder if this is an issue with the watch. Does anyone not experience this?

Huawei Mate 20 X (Chinese version): Not getting notifications on mobile data

So today after weeks of waiting my brand new Huawei Mate 20 X finally arrived.
Went through the initial phone setup and installed an APK of Google Play, no dramas so far.
Installed all the usual apps, Facebook, Messenger (which only half works, but that's another story), my banking apps etc.
Had absolutely no issues whatsoever, was receiving notifications normally, in fact I would say I was getting notifications quicker on Wi-Fi on this phone than what I was on my old Google Pixel.
Went out for a drive, didn't receive a single notification for about 20 minutes, decided to check Facebook and all of a sudden 5 or so notifications pop up at once, having owned a Huawei before I instantly figured out that it was probably a battery optimisation issue, went and checked the settings, battery optimisation was turned off by default which I was surprised by, so then I went into the applications menu and made sure that all of my apps like Facebook had priority, apparently on the new version of EMUI there is no such thing as a 'priority application'.
Got home and connected back to WiFi and it started working perfectly again, just to make sure it wasn't something I did I went back out for another drive and once again my notification stopped working.
Went through all of my data settings, turned 'data always on' on through the developer's menu, I've done pretty much everything I can think of doing.
Just to confirm that it was actually a software issue I downloaded a push notifications tester through the Play Store, and as I expected that confirmed that I wasn't getting notifications through my data.
Does anyone have any suggestions at all?
Apart from that it's been probably the perfect phone, I don't want to have to return it purely based on one small but yet massively inconvenient issue.

Try: Settings/Apps & Notifications/Permissions (This based on Android 8.0 on a Huawei Honor Note 8) this would be another reason, if you dont trust the phone it would stop this as well.
notifications issues

Go into Notifications, More notification settings, smart notifications, Auto-update and change to "all networks", see if that fixes your problem(s).

I just tried this I'm going to see if it works.
Did it work?
Please try the following methods:
1)Make sure the SIM card is inserted. Setttings---Battery---- Click the gear button on the upper right corner--- switch on “Stay connected when device sleeps”.
2) Settings---Notifications----More notification settings---turn off "Smart notifications"

Go into settings - battery - more battery settings and toggle on the option that says "stay connected when device sleeps". This fixed all my delayed notifications on Gmail and WhatsApp

Question Who experiences these three anoying bugs

... and has a way to fix them?
1. the phone will decrease its refresh rate from time to time and stays there, and the "stuttering" is only fixed by rebooting. Yes, I am aware, that Whatsapp and Telegram voice messaging is occasionally linked to it, and can be handled by removing the apps from memory. But not in the mentioned cases.
2. "Ok, Google" accessing the assistant doesnt work from now and then. And is back to normal a few tries later.
3. When talking over the phone with speaker mode and browsing on the phone, the notification bar cannot be pulled down any more, which is annoying cause I cant easily open the phone tab to end the call.
Anyone, guys?
2. I have a similar bug with quick tap, it seems that a system app freezes/crashes, and without knowing the exact culprit the entire system needs to be rebooted to enable the function again.
Plus my "Ok, Google" also stopped working in the past, found no way to fix it yet. It's probably an Android 12 bug.
Since yesterday I noticed my AOD does not work when on a call, screen goes dark. I go into AODsettings and it still turned ON.
There's only been one update since the phones been released, besides the FPS update, after a few updates it'll be fine
I have noticed "OK Google" not responding at times as well.. not as bad as my 2XL was at times, only a reboot would fix that...but is annoying to say the least especially when driving. And I don't think it works while using Waze or Maps for navigation either which stinks, maybe I need to use Android Auto for that integration to work right.

Question Pixel 6 Pro won't stop playing notification tone during calls

My Pixel 6 Pro has a similar problem ever since the Mar 5 update has been installed. Since then, every phone call I made comes with the non-stop notification tone literally every second. For now, I managed to get around it by enabling the "DND Mode", but it isn't a long-term solution.
Is there a way I can re-apply the same update? or flashing a new one would help?
To be clear, you're saying that you keep getting the notification tone even after answering the call? If so, is it the same as your ringtone?
Is your bootloader unlockable? If so, Official Google Android Flash Tool (OEM Unlocking needs to be toggled on - you may not have to manually unlock the bootloader - the "site" will do that on its own).
It wouldn't surprise me if that doesn't fix the issue, however. Have you tried rebooting? Maybe clear the cache and app data for the Phone app (but then you'd have to re-customize the settings for the phone app to your preferences).
I'm not on the March update, but I also don't receive many phone calls anyway.
that notification tone, during normal time, represents incoming message. It is very short, unlike a ringtone..
Tried rebooting and clearing cache and app data of the Phone app. In fact, that notification could likely come from anything like WhatsApp, Messenger, Twitter...
I noticed that the repeating tones would not happen if the phone is on silent mode. So for now this is my workaround.
Very interesting, and strange. There have been settings in some OEM's phone apps you could enable to get notification tones at regular paces - usually once a minute - while on a phone call, but the issue on yours is only similar since it's constant / every second.
I stick with my recommendation of clearing the app cache and data for the Phone app. I also assume you're using the stock Phone app that Google provides.
In my previous phone (OnePlus 6T), the very same tone happens once in a while, but only at the moment an incoming message arrives. Pretty sure I am not getting a new message every second this time around, and I think it was triggered by apps other than the Phone app. I just noticed that the same symptom showed up when I tried to play video clips from certain apps as well.
And yes, I am using the stock Phone app.
Sounds like a factory reset and only selectively installing and configuring apps, or trying to figure out which app is causing the issue.
If you factory reset, I would first not even restore any apps at all, so you can verify if you have the same problem without any third-party apps installed at first. I would suspect you won't have issues then. And then when you install apps, do it in groups of your most important ones first, maybe at the most 10 at a time, then re-verify each time if you have the same issue or not, then the next batch of app installs. It could be a particular setting in a app as well, so it's possibly merely installing an app might not be enough, so each group of apps you install, make sure and configure them as well.
If you don't factory reset, go the opposite way, uninstall your least important third-party apps and see if the issue disappears. Keep track of which apps you're uninstalling in each group. Keep doing this in reasonably sized groups of apps until you narrow down when the problem stops happening.
Once you find which group of apps being uninstalled keeps the issue from happening, you can reinstall in even smaller batches, among the ones you most recently uninstalled, and eventually find the one causing the issue. In some ways I think it's easier to go the other way around, though, start with a factory reset.
Found the culprit!
Kind of silly: I have installed this app "Internet Speed Meter Lite" when I first started using my P6P, which is for me to monitor my real-time network usage (courtesy of that endless WhatsApp - Google Drive restoring process....). It basically refreshes itself every second and this morning I tried temporarily disabling it, the problem goes away even when the phone is not set to silent mode.
Glad I didn't have to come to the point of factory resetting the device, as I really don't want to go through the WhatsApp restoring process.
Thanks for all the input, much appreciated.
