Can't enable "calling setup" - Huawei Watch

I just got my watch yesterday and it went through several updates in the first half hour. I think it ended up at the latest update, at Android Wear 1.5.0.3153324, Android OS 6.0.1 and Android security patch level August 1, 2016.
Everything seems to be working great but I'm having one problem. When I select "Calling Setup" in the settings menu I get a screen that says: "Voice Calling Info. To proceed with calling setup, please go to System Updates to install the latest software." When I touch on the OK checkmark on the screen, I get a message that says "System is up to date"
I re-booted the watch, but nothing changed. Is the "calling setup" working for everyone else? Is there anything else I should be setting up or enabling to make this work?
Thanks

Well, despite what I wrote in my posting, the dialing out and dialing in works fine! I had incorrectly concluded that if I couldn't set it up, it wouldn't work. Incorrect assumption!
So, all is well!

Glad your back in business...

I have the same issue. Everything looks like it is set up correctly, but every time I get close to the watch, it pops up a message to start Calling Setup. When I swipe left, it tells me to tap to continue, then I get a message "Voice Calling Info. To proceed with calling setup, please go to System Updates to install the latest software." This message only has a Close button.
When I tap the Close button, it goes to the system updates, which informs me that the system is up to date.
The calling works just fine, but it is very aggravating that the watch keeps prompting me to do Calling Setup.

My watch is doing the same thing.
Nexus 6 with 7.1.1. w/January 5th security patch level
Android Wear version 1.5.0.3594574
Google Play Services 10.2.98 (530-146496160)
Watch has January 1st security patch level
Settings > Bluetooth > Play phone audio on watch = OFF
I don't use my watch speaker because it keeps overriding my car's Bluetooth. But this notification keeps coming back.

No messages arriving on the watch.

Hi all!
I do not recieve any Messages on my Huawei Watch (neither WhatsApp, nor SMS or Telegram) from my HTC One M7 (rooted). Calendar notifications and phone calls are working without any problems.
I realized that problem since i did a full wipe and reinstalled VipeOne 9.0 ROM.
This steps also did not help and i did a reset and new pairing multiple times without any success.
Could there be any settings which are set wrong?
How can i detect and solve this problem to get my notifications back?
Because i do not know if the problem is Android or Android Wear related or has something to do with the Huawei Watch or ViperOne ROM, i did a post in this Forum...
Thank you for helping in advance,
Florian
it could be related to this sort of thing http://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-watch/general/bad-battery-life-read-factory-reset-t3474948
go to apkmirror.com and download the latest version of Google Play Services for your phone then double reboot phone and watch twice (could take a day for Google play services on watch AND phone to sync their versions)
since you wiped your rom I'd bet your version of Google Play Services is out of sync with what's on the watch (probably would fix itself after a week off trickling the updates)

Hi pablo71,
thank you for your answer.
I downloaded the newest Google Play Services apk from apkmirror.com, installed it and restartet Watch and Phone multiple times.
But after over 24h there is still the same problem...
What can i do? Reset the phone another time or sync Google Play Services manually or something else?

my apologies for late reply ... I don't know what could be done, but if your watch was rooted I'd say to install the app Advanced Settings, then open it ON THE WATCH and go to Apps > System > Google Play Services > CLEAR DATA ... THEN go to Android Wear on the phone and FORGET THE WATCH ... THEN Reboot the watch, open Advanced Settings on watch go to Bluetooth > check the Discovery Mode Box and RE-PAIR the watch with Android Wear .. when I have the problem 'that sounds like what you're describing' this procedure fixes it for me.
sorry you're having problems with your watch .. if it's because of data-cross-contamination between different versions of Google Play Services updates that is causing this then I hope Google takes some action and stops doing this ... non-functioning watches does NOT make people want to buy smartwatches

No Problem!
Today i unlocked my Watch and installed Advanced Settings. Then i deleted the data from Google Play Services and did a Reset and tried everything you described, but untill now no messages arrived on the watch... Could there be something else wrong or settings on my phone?
The Google Play Service Version on the phone and on the watch are nearly the same (10.0.84) but the number after the bracket are different (238-... on phone and 530-... on watch)...
Thank you, yes its very annoying having a Smartwatch which isn't recieving any messages ... hope it can be fixed, but because its only software related it should be viable.

wow that would drive me crazy .. all I can think of would be to try the earlier version of Android Wear on the phone you used to have ... apkmirror would have it .. wow good luck I hope it gets fixed
I tried to install an older version of Android Wear but it did not help.
So i don't know what to do anymore...
Solved!
I just got the solution for my problem!!
It was a very stupid mistake: Android Wear was not set as device administrator... There was even a notification on my Wear app,
but i didn't recognized it because normally there is a notification to activate locations and it looks exactly the same

How did you check to make sure that it was? I too am having a similar problem where my SMS notifications would sometimes take over 2 minutes to get to my watch.

Because all system related notifications arrived on my watch without any problems and all notifications of third party apps didn't, it could only be Phone related...
You have an other problem, because the SMS notification is system related.
Do you sync via cloud (wifi) or via Bluetooth?
Did you try to reset your watch or reinstall the wear app (and delete app data)?
^good to know!

I meant how did you check to see that Android Wear was set as device Admin? I looked in my device admin and did not see Android Wear in the list.
But I did do a reset of my watch and re-paired, and that seem to have fixed the notifications delayed.

Sorry it was not the device admin query, but the notification access query (Preferences -> Apps -> Settings -> something like "Special access" -> Notification access).
Good to hear, that your problem is also resolved!
Not resolved. Same problem. Notification would arrive much later than on phone, and even calls are now not going to my watch. I performed another watch factory reset again, but why am I having to keep doing this?
I have a Huawei watch with a Huawei Mate 9. I would expect both to work seamlessly together. I had no problems when my watch was synced with my Axon ZTE 7.
So this is what I believe is causing the problem. When the phone and watch gets out of range (walking away from my desk without my phone), for some reason the phone and watch does not ask to be paired. It looks as though they are both still connected. With my Axon 7, whenever both got out of range and wanted to connect again, I would get a notification asking if I wanted to pair the watch with my phone. I would then accept. In this case, with the Mate 9, I do not get that pairing notification and I believe that is why i do not get notifications to my watch after it has lost its connection. I had to manually unpair the watch from my phone, then pair it up again.
Any insights?

I do also have a Huawei Mate 9 and i dont have any problems... I did never get a re-pair notification (on my HTC One M7 also). It re-paired automatically when i was in range!

And your notifications come to your watch the same time it comes to your phone? Just to clarify, mine does automatically re-pair when it gets in range again, but I was thinking that maybe somehow it doesn't fully re-pair, which was the cause of my delayed/missed notifications? So I wanted to manually re-pair to make sure it did.
Still trying to figure out when my notifications sometime shows up, and sometime does not. Baffled.
The messages arrive about 1-2s later (i disabled vibration on my phone) and since i set Wear for special access everything works without problems, like before...
If i understand right, your notifications arrive after a couple of seconds or sometimes they do not arrive? Is there a coherence when they arrive and when not? (for example always when you re-pair it don't work and when it's constantly paired it works, but delayed?)
And are you syncing with Bluetooth or Wifi (cloud)?

I am going to keep monitoring and see if I notice any patterns to when I do receive notifications instantly, and when I do not. Yes, sometimes my notifications, i.e SMS, or my CNN notifications, I will hear that it arrive on my phone, but then look at my watch and do not see the notifications. Sometimes, it would eventually go on my watch a few minutes afterwards.
When I re-paired it, I did notice that my notifications appeared instantly. I did not try to walk away from my phone and come back to have it re-paired automatically. I can try that today and see what happens. I just turned on wi-fi sync yesterday. But would i still be getting text SMS through wi-fi?
When you say that you set Wear for special access, where about did you check that?
Yes, try to find out what commonly happens when it does not work...
I haven't been trying wifi sync but i think all notifications should work like using bluetooth.

Wear 2.0 Bugs - Any Solutions?

Seem to come across a few few bugs since updating OTA yesterday.
1. Play Store just not opening on the watch. Previously it would say no network. After factory resetting again it says: error while retrieving information from server rh-01
2. Google assistant. Trying to message people in my contacts by saying their name not working very well. The same contacts that worked flawlessly previously don't work anymore. As I say my request, it all gets typed out word for word, just as I said. These match up to the way the contacts are written out, but google assistant repeatedly just asks: To Whom?
3. Watch vibrates but no notification seen till I swipe up. Otherwise I have no idea that there has been a notification.
4. On incoming notifications such as whatsapp, I don't always have a reply button available. Sometimes it decides I can reply, sometimes there's just no option at all.
Any solutions?
Thanks in advance
Does your google assistant speak? I can't seem to make it speak when talking to it. It does reply only on screen with text.

AW2. 0 Internet connectivity issues

I adore the new keyboard functionality of 2.0, but in general my watch has been behaving poorly since the update. I have it paired to a Huawei mediapad m3 8.4 (cellular version)
At all times, notifications seem to come through in a timely fashion. But anything that requires an Internet connection (specifically Google Assistant, voice replies to notifications, and weather) are hit or miss. Half the time they work just fine. Other times they don't.
I've factory reset the watch since the update, with no improvement. Again, at all times notifications come through. But sometimes, anything that requires voice dictation or data fails. At these times, I go into the Android wear app, and it says connected. I can see and even reply to notifications with the keyboard, but if I try to use voice, or the assistant, or query for a weather update, it will tell me disconnected, or couldn't reach Google. Play store updates on watch apps are the same problem.
When I go into the watch settings while observing this bad behavior, under Bluetooth settings, it shows my phones Bluetooth ID, and says disconnected. When it's working properly, it says connected. But in BOTH cases it properly receives notifications, so just the Internet sharing to the watch from the phone seems at issue.
I've done everything short of factory resetting my phone, which I'd rather not do, including clearing data from Google app and clearing data /Uninstalling /reinstalling Android wear on the phone. Does anyone have further suggestions?

Edit: just on a whim, I decided to try Shazam on the watch while assistant, weather, and voice were not working. Even in the "disconnected" state, it could properly identify music. Baffling. Though if Shazam on wear just records the audio, sends it to the phone, and that does the identification, I suppose this follows logic. Still sort of feel like it's specific to Google though.

[Guide][Fix] Fix for no notifications and apps not syncing to device

So, with the recent update to Wear OS on my mobile phone I have found that I wasn't receiving notifications any more. I figured it was something to do with app referencing to the old Android wear instead of the newer Wear OS app on my phone. I reset my phone/watch and from that point it all went horribly wrong. I could no longer transfer apps to my watch (Strava, Keep, Spotify, etc) and notifications would not appear on my device.
THE FIX
1) Remove the Wear OS app from your phone and download Android Wear from UpToDown.com.
2) Download the most recently archived version (2.7.0.177669439) and install it (Enable Unknown sources in settings).
3) Open the Play Store app and go to "My Apps and Games" and find the "Wear OS" app update and open the app store page. Select the triple dot menu from the top right of the screen and uncheck "Enable auto-update".
4) Pair your phone and watch again, giving some time for all apps to sync and reinstall.
I've only just completed this myself and so far everything is starting to come back up on my watch like before. You may need to go into settings and tell the app to resync all apps to watch again, but hopefully this has fixed any issues people are having of late like I have been.
Happy trails!
Did you get constant FC messages?
Sent from my Sony Xperia XZ1 using XDA Labs
I wasn't getting any notifications on my watch. So I tried wiping my watch and setting it up again and found it would never sync apps back to the watch. So I rolled back to using Android wear which immediately fixed the issue of the apps not syncing. A positive side effect of doing so allowed me to get notifications again.
I did that and now I have notifications but apps don't syncing. During parring it hangs on ninth app and goes to the main screen. Resync all apps don't work
Same problem here, fresh install and my watch is missing almost all installed apps : keep is present bu not working, google map is missing, ...
Thanks worked for me....not using lates release seem to fix the issue
Doesn´t work for me. Android Wear app FC on XZ1 Compact.

Question Diving me nuts - Update Fitbit ECG

When I open the Pixel Watch App, I get a notification to: Go to the Google Play store on your watch to update the Fitbit ECG (electrocardiogram) app.
I did this several times and I don't see any updates available.
Any other ways to update this thing? Or, get rid of the notification? I do dismiss it but it keeps coming back.
Y.u have to do it on your watch
LOL. I know but I don't see how.
EDIT: Just to be a bit clearer: The app tells me that I need to update Fitbit ECG, but when I go to the Play Store on the watch, there is NO update for the Fitbit ECG - there are others that need updating, but not Fitbit ECG.
Same thing happened to mine
Go to Settings > About > Update Google Play Store, wait for Play Store to crash and update, then go to Manage Apps, and Update All.
Hope this helps!
I don't see "About" in Settings.
I see Connectivity, Display, Gestures, Apps & Notifications, Google, Sound, Vibration, Battery, General, Health Profile, Location, Safety & Emergency, Security, and System.

Settings in Play Store; scroll to the bottom and you will see it there
My bad, I always go to the gear icon when someone mentions "Settings".
So, I did find the "About", but it says, "Google Play Store is up to date"
Honestly, at this point, I'm very much done with this watch. I also have issues with the Map function, I went through freaking hell to set "Home" and once in a while it simply reverts back to "Set home address" - it's infuriating.
Thanks for all the help guys.
