I was on latest AW 2 preview version and then updated to AW2 version via OTA received on watch. The notifications worked for few times and then stopped completely. I tried rebooting the watch, phone (honor 7) but nothing changed. I tried uninstalling and installing the android wear app but still nothing changed. I tried restoring and adding watch again to phone but still nothing happened. I even did clean install of AW 2 (wiping the partition and sideloading the firmware) but still nothing changed. Is it happening for anybody else or does anybody has solution to fix it. I suspect it has something to do with the AW app. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

I've been using an app called "informer wear" Search for it in the Playstore. It works great for me.

I had that happen yesterday on another watch still on 1.5. It resolved after rebooting my phone (S7e). So it's not just 2.0
Notifications have started to come theough now on my watch. Only thing that I changed was that I gave AW app 'priority display' permission under Notifications
I'm getting gmail and text notifications, but not my exchange email. High priority didn't help me. Even adding my exchange email to the gmail app didn't work.
it is a bug and solved by accident
it is a bug and solved by accident for me, just receive a call while you are connecting your watch to your smartphone and answer using the watch and talk using the watch.
then after closing the line using the watch also, all notifications will appear

Nice to see representation from Huawei.
Ive ordered mine getting it after few days from now, hope everything will be gone smooth without problems..
I no longer get any notifications after upgrading to 2.0. Only the call in comes thru.
Resetting my watch and rebooting my phone did not help either.

Have you tried a different watchface? I'm using WatchR and don't have a problem with notifications. I have the paid version so I'm not sure if the free version will work. I get both a full screen notification as well as a colored circle at the bottom with the number of notifications.

I'm using the stock watch faces - and this coloured circle you mention intrigues me. I miss having the notification at the bottom of the screen to pull up.
My notification are coming through - but I have no way of knowing there's a notification unless I swipe up to check. Is this the same for everyone else? No actual visible notification unless swiping up? I've turned on 'High' notification previews, but that's also not really what I want as I then lose the watch face.

Originally I was quite impressed for Huawei to have a presence here - went to try the chat about my issue with notifications and was told 'ask Google'. Super.
Huawei: Since this is an Android-related issues, please contact the local support for Android Wear, as they are the developers of the software and best equipped to offer you assistance with this.
Me: Who's the local support for Android? You mean Google?
Huawei: Yes.
So... anyone got Sundar Pichai's contact info? lol
The colored dot only shows with special AW 2.0 optimized watch faces and AFAIK, none if the stock HW 1 watch faces.

The biggest problem I have is that they disappear after swiping through them. So say you get a Facebook notification & text. If the text is the second notification & you swipe past Facebook, you don't get to go back. With the previous AW version you could swipe as much as you like until you dismissed them or read them, etc. Bugs the hell out of me with 2.0 when it all disappears.

Notification
Hi, found this forum and wanted to ask if anyone having the same issue.
mine is lte.. before buying this watch i read online says that all notification from phone will receive without any bluetooth connection, i was interested on it.
eventually i bought the watch and all set up, but found out that the notification sometime receive and sometime not. So i realise the notif will receive when the phone is on then all notification will be received, but when phone is screen off / stand by mode all notification can't receive.
anybody having this issue? maybe there is some setting that has to be set so when you leave the phone all notif can be receive on watch?
and as i can see Huawei is in this forum, it will be great if you can assist on this issue.
thank you.

Howdy,
Before I upgraded to CyanogenMod 9.0, I would get a Google Voice message notification for a text message. I'd go into the web version of Google Voice, answer the text and then after a bit, the notification would go away on my phone.
Now switched to CM9 and the notification doesn't go away unless I answer the text on my phone or clear it out on the phone.
I've tried GummyNex and CM9 and they both do it.
Has anyone else seen this? I've done the thing where I've uninstalled GV, did the *73, deleted all the Verizon VMs and the reinstalled GV but it still does it.
Don't think its related to your ROM as I'm having the exact same issue on stock 4.0.4 and have always been on stock. Seems to have started a couple weeks ago....
Been pulling my hair out trying to figure out what's going on and was about to start a thread myself asking if anyone else had the issue. Thought I was just crazy at first, but I know for a fact this is not how the app acted before. I've tried changing all kinds of things for my browser use of voice.google.com, deleted/re-installed the app, and nothing works.
I'll be texting using just the browser for a bit and look at my phone and I'll have a notification for "25 Google Voice Messages" or whatever. They never clear. I notice that when opening the GV app to the thread I'm texting in, it hasn't synced in the background, and takes a few seconds for the messages I had sent to show up in the thread. It seems as though Google Voice isn't getting background sync anymore.
Aww man So it was just highly coincidental that it happened around the same time I switched over to a different rom.
It's surprisingly frustrating for such a little thing. I just use it so much that it forces me to check the phone and clear it manually to make sure I don't *actually* have a new message when I'm using both my phone and the web app.
Argh.
Yeah - nothing I've found has fixed the issue.

Yes I think it's actually a coincidence as I said I've been on stock and it all of a sudden stopped working as it was. This is just really weird because there's been no update to the app or anything.
It's extra frustrating because Google Voice is my primary #, so I'm doing about 99.9% of my texting with it, and really enjoy being able to use voice.google.com. Dealing with clearing GV notifications every time I pick my phone up is very lame.

I don't currently have this with my yakju 4.0.4 OTA stock ROM, but I have seen it before on this phone and every other phone I've owned across stock & custom ROMs. Fairly confident it's a problem with the app itself

I don't know.. I agree though that the problem just comes and goes, which is odd. Just a couple weeks ago they weren't clearing for me, but right now it's working fine. I remember thinking that's it's ridiculous this happens on stock firmware

Even moreso ridiculous if this is a known issue and they haven't addressed it even with these several early 2012 updates to the GV app, which made it a lot better overall in UI and UX. I just don't see how it can come and go with no changes whatsoever to your settings.
Mine definitely does the same thing... I thought it used to clear them for me, but I wasn't sure, and figured I was just thinking of how Google Talk clears the messages.
Not a huge deal to me, but it would definitely be nice if they would fix this. Our best bet is to make a post on the help forums with a bunch of posts in it.

If anyone has a chance, they should make a post in the Google Voice forums here (I'll try to do it later when I have a chance if no-one else gets to it): http://productforums.google.com/forum/#!categories/voice/using-google-voice-on-a-mobile-device. I heard that Google Engineers do monitor / read these sometimes, so if we all post in a thread there is a chance it will get read / fixed.
I really wish there was a better way to get stuff like this fixed.
Bit late to the party. Just wanted to chime in that in my experience I don't think I've ever seen the GV notification clear itself after checking the web interface on my computer.
I've been using android for a year now and have gone through 3 phones and the asus transformer tablet. My current phone is running a CM9 based rom, but still it doesn't clear these notifications.
Man, I'd love it if it did.
Note: I think that if you use the GV widget, you will see that the notification on the widget DOES clear after checking the web interface (or at least it did in GB because I just tested this on my current phone and widget doesn't clear it either). I suppose this means that GV is pushing the "read" status of an sms to our phones. The notification on the notification bar, however, still persists despite this.
EDIT: Given my last test on my current phone, it looks like the widget doesn't clear the notification like it used to on GB. It looks like it is, in fact, a syncing issue.

I can confirm that it actually did used to clear when viewed on another device, and this is the intended action. It should work exactly like an IMAP e-mail account (say, the GMail app). If you view a message on the device or in a web browser, it is cleared as read on the other. Google Voice used to do the same, and stopped doing so randomly. It's completely a backend problem.
Really wish they would fix this. Still happening on JB. Very annoying for those of us who text from the web all day.

Here's a list of reported bugs since the 4.4.2 kitkat upgrade (bugs may not affect everyone)
1. Horizontal lines during video playback - happens randomly - Rebooting the tablet fixes it / enabling "Disable overlay" in developer settings seems to work -elzeus
2. Audio quality degradation - happens randomly - Rebooting the tablet fixes it / going to test after a clean stock install -elzeus
3. Battery life issues - inaccurate battery level reporting (5% turns 25% after reboot) - alexandruene
4.Chromecast systemui crash is pretty serious. - GldRush98
5.Lockscreen widgets are broken. - GldRush98
6. Emails not showing up in sent folder - jaytee23
7. long press the "period" the "?" doesn't work - RTbar
Battery life
The big issue i have is the battery life. today i couldn't get more then 2 hours on the internet. Did a factory reset and the same thing.
Once it reaches 5 percent if i restart it goes up to 25 but it drops back down to 5 percent in like 5 minutes. Tried with no sd card, no other app's but the same thing. Anyone with a tip on how to get this fixed?? Before the update it was working fine.....
I've added your issues. I have not come across that battery issue on my tablet. Have you tried wiping your cache and user data from recovery before setting up the tablet?
Update for my issues I did a Odin restore with the stock 4.4.2 image and so far no video or sound issues but they took some time to show up before so I'll be keeping a close eye on it.

I can verify random audio quality issue. Happened to me four times since the KK update.
It seems to happen either after you quit an app/game or waking the Note from sleep. I haven't been able to trace the trigger to an exact action or app yet, if there is one.
You don't have to reboot to fix. You can fix by locking and unlocking... maybe once, maybe a few times. But it comes back to normal after one or a few tries for me. Reminds me of the audio bug we had on the HP Touchpad after its final firmware update. Damn! I thought I wasn't going to have to deal with that anymore!
I'll try to be more specific on the lock/unlock fix as I gather more info when it happens again.
And by the way, the fix on the Touchpad was also very similar - lock, wait ten seconds, unlock... lol... maybe Samsung is using the Touchpad audio driver!

Got lines again on video tried to lock a bunch of times didn't work (ill try for audio). Don't they test these updates? This is a pretty nasty bug that didnt happen pre kitkat, I think im going to downgrade until its fixed.
Update after reading this youtube thread https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NEasAq2ik_A

Mh, as developer I am always careful to call something a bug.
And for these "bugs" my question is: Why not everyone have it? Why only a small group? Therefore I don't think that these are bugs but have to do with your installation.
Did anyone of your try a factory reset? Try out on a clean installation, which means without any settings changed, any app installed, any sd-card inserted?

I've done a factory reset & clean installation. I haven't rooted but did add my normal apps after getting it setup with sd card. The next time it happens I'll try unmounting the sd card.
If you check out this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NEasAq2ik_A they also had the issue on their Pro 12.2 but that tablet received a stability update in early April that may have fixed it. It may be that our version was trailing there's or there is some other variable (no magazine UI etc) that is causing it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50527314&postcount=20 that person also had the lines in late Feb. I'll pm him and ask him if the issue went away after their update.
Forcing GPU 2d rendering from the developer options didn't seem to work as the corruption came back, but I did enable the "Disable UI overlay" and it did end up going away "crossing fingers" as this is the only thing I've tried that has gotten rid of the lines while the tablet is powered on (usually it only goes away after rebooting).
Another bug I found so far is with the included Email app. I'm using it with my gmail account. The new version included with KK has an issue with sent mail. Specifically, it doesn't update the sent mail folder - at least for me. It used to work perfectly. Now when you send an email from the app, the email doesn't show up in your sent mail folder within the app. I have tried deleting all the email data on the tablet, and the cache, and set it up four times since KK and it it just won't show email you send from the tablet in the sent mail folder. Note, I'm not talking about email that is already in your sent email folder in your gmail account. I'm saying, send a new email from the tablet, and that email should immediately appear in your sent mail folder, but it doesn't. It doesn't ever show up there. Kind of a problem. Can anyone else confirm this? Send an email from the Email app and see if it shows up in your sent mail folder within the email app. Thanks.

You're a developer and you say that? Are you serious? I'm an expert user. Every platform I've ever owned for the past 30 years from the Commodore 64 to this Note 10.1 has had bugs, some minor, some major. Just like the 24-second touchsceen timeout bug I found and reported in the last firmware version. The new KK update is so new its still rolling out to users. I've already encountered two bugs for sure - the audio quality bug and the email bug I just described in the previous post. The audio bug has been confirmed and I believe the email bug I just reported will also be confirmed. The fact is that certain people are more adept at finding and reporting issues. It also depends on how you use the device and with what regularity. Are you suggesting that we sit on our hands and not report the problems we find? Please.

I normally just use gmail but I setup the stock email app to test it for you. I set it up as a push account and sent a test email. It was briefly in the "Outbox" folder then it was sent out leaving the outbox folder empty. I then checked the Sent folder right underneath the outbox folder and it wasn't updated yet so I hit the refresh button in the top right corner and my test email showed up.

I never did that. I only mentioned not to call issues a bug. This didn't help anyone. People who didn't have this problem begin to fear it and people who have will stop searching the real reason because it is a bug.
I mean what I see are already hundreds of downloads of KK and only 3 persons complaint the video "bug". Did you think that only 3 "power" users are watching videos?

Do you have an SD card inserted?
I just tried something where:
1) I deleted my email account from the client again
2) deleted the data/cache from the Email app
3) ejected my SD card
4) set up the account again in the Email client
5) sent a test email
6) sent email now shows up in sent email folder but only after a manual refresh
7) reinserted SD card
8) sent another test email
9) sent email still showing up in sent email folder, but only after a manual refresh (shouldn't have to do that) and it takes awhile.... hmmm....
I tried this because I was reading a thread in the 12.2 forum (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2670065) where a guy mentioned a similar issue. I thought I would try dismounting the SD card and setting up the account again... still not happy... still uncertain about this... something wonky here.
I'll try more tomorrow... must sleep now.

I didn't have any problem with email I was tracing my steps for jaytee in case I did anything different from him in the way his email is setup. As for the list if they aren't bugs then what are they? People make bug lists so they can get fixed or so people can post workarounds. The only reason I enabled the developer options was to find a solution for the video lines...so far the disable overlay checkbox has worked.

Maybe it is personal but I would call them problems and not bugs. The difference for me is that a problem is my problem and I have to find a solution or work-around (or someone else for me) and a bug came from Samsung and normally can only be solved by Samsung. A problem didn't have anybody, can be constructive be solved and create a positive atmosphere here in xda. A bug have anybody, can be solved only by experts and is something negative because the product didn't work like it should be.
Therefore I find good that you start such a list but I would more mentioned what you did before (how you get the update), which update, if rooted or not, what happens and what was expected and then if a solution or work-around exists.

Mh, as developer I am always careful to call something a bug.
And for these "bugs" my question is: Why not everyone have it? Why only a small group? Therefore I don't think that these are bugs but have to do with your installation.
Did anyone of your try a factory reset? Try out on a clean installation, which means without any settings changed, any app installed, any sd-card inserted?

You're a developer and you say that? Are you serious? I'm an expert user. Every platform I've ever owned for the past 30 years from the Commodore 64 to this Note 10.1 has had bugs, some minor, some major. Just like the 24-second touchsceen timeout bug I found and reported in the last firmware version. The new KK update is so new its still rolling out to users. I've already encountered two bugs for sure - the audio quality bug and the email bug I just described in the previous post. The audio bug has been confirmed and I believe the email bug I just reported will also be confirmed. The fact is that certain people are more adept at finding and reporting issues. It also depends on how you use the device and with what regularity. Are you suggesting that we sit on our hands and not report the problems we find? Please.

You're both sort-of correct. There are pervasive "bugs" and situational bugs. @Elim is right, it's pretty clear that some of the issues being reported are situational bugs caused by some combination of elements that affect a subset of users. Add to that no two Android devices are configured the same way and it's easy to see how things that affect one user (or set of users) don't affect another. Some people rooted, some use tons of system/memory managers and battery boosters, some flashed over 4.3, and some are using a ROM from a different CSC than assigned to their h/w. All those things can cause issues of varying degrees.
Not everyone's having the battery life, Chromecast, and video lines issues so you can pretty much assume it's not the 4.4 s/w alone causing some folks to have problems. Like Elim said, if it were in the core ROM s/w everyone would be experiencing the issues equally. His advice was solid; do a restore through recovery and before loading any personal apps or settings see if the problem(s) still there. If it's not, it's something related to an individual configuration.
I don't have a problem with Chromecast or lockscreen widgets.

Could somebody please help me about making a calendar entry? I feel pretty stupid about this whole thing, I can say to Moto 360 "open calendar app but it only seems to open it on my phone". Is it possible to say make an appointment for Wednesday the 25th? Seems like I have no problems with anything else like sending text messages and getting directions but this is driving me crazy. Thanks for any input you can give me.
I haven't been able to figure this out either.

Set reminders
I've been able to set "reminders" that only exist under the Google Now home screen. Try this voice command: "Add reminder. Whatever whatever whatever at 9am tomorrow." I've used the "Add reminder" command quite often and it works very well.

You can just say "remind me to take out the trash tonight".
Unfortunately I need calendar items and it seems, inexplicably, Google Wear doesn't support it.
What about these:

https://ifttt.com/connect/google_calendar/android_wear
no luck.
No Luck this is a bummer. I would like to just add a calendar meeting. Just by saying add calendar event tomorrow 9am meet with John Doe.

This is definitely a bummer like you said, but now I'm just using "add a reminder" hoping that the next version of android Google L will do the job.
Sadly, Android Wear is more of an extension of Google Now, than an extension of the Android phone...
It'll get better, though
I can't even get it to set a reminder. It tries to save and says "Sorry that didn't work. Try again"

Moto 360 degrading over time

After 3 weeks with my Moto 360 I just started having problems of all sorts, including no longer being able to set a reminder. I do everything the same as I've effortlessly done over the last 3 weeks ... "Ok, Google ... Remind me to <blah blah>" and it just shows a Google search of a webpage I can open on my phone. Reminders have worked dozens upon dozens of times over the last 3 weeks, and now not at all.
I've uninstalled Android Wear on my phone, restarted, Reset device on my watch, waited a long time, followed the on-watch prompts to reinstall Android Wear, re-paired Bluetooth, and so on. A few times now. Same thing - super basic smartwatch functionality of my Moto 360 has spontaneously stopped working over the last couple of days.
If I say "Ok, Google ... Remind me." and pause my watch will display a prompt that says "About what?" and if I say something it just says it can't reach Google at the moment. But it can! All my notifications from my phone are still working, and if I ask a random question ("Ok, Google ... who is the Prime Minister of Canada?") it pops up a response just fine. It's just all the really useful and core smartwatch stuff that has been hosed.
It started with the time being incorrect on my watch, whilst it remains totally correct on my phone. I've had to restart my watch multiple times per day to get the time set correctly, I've Reset device several times now, etc.
Overall, my Moto 360 experience is severely degrading over time. :crying:

What kind of phone? Is it at least android 4.3?
used to work fine
Yes, I have a stock Samsung Galaxy S4 with 4.4.2. And as mentioned, Android Wear and my Moto 360 have been working great for me for the last few weeks then all of a sudden - wrong time. After a bunch of complete wipes / reinstalls AND calls to Motorola support just to be sure and also to loop them in on problems, my AW experience continues to get worse.
However, it appears I'm not unique in this. I just checked the comments on Google Play for the Android Wear app and it looks like a lot of people are having similar issues with the October 6th update - incorrect time, inability to set reminders anymore, etc. Let's hope Google and/or Motorola read and respond and fix the problems ASAP!

Which versions of AW are you on? I'm still on 1.01.
Any solution for the problem? It's really annoying, someone??

Hiya, it seems the reminder functionality uses Google Now, so if you've disabled Google Now on your phone, it'll tell you that it can't make new appointments every time you try...
You can add reminder to Google Now remind section not on Google Calendar.
If you want add entry in your Google Calendar you can use an App named "Calengoo".
With this app you can add calendar entry and also entry in your Google task.
With this app you can also dismiss or snooze Calendar Event when is send to Wear device.
My Moto 360 showed me incoming facebook messages no problem, but I have never once seen one on my Huawei watch. I've tried resyncing the apps, re-pairing the watch, enabling all permissions for all apps involved, everything I can think of. Anyone have this problem and solve it?

Checked it. Not blocked.
Did you get an answer?
I just got an original Huawei watch yesterday (on sale, Amazon), and everything seems to be working as it should be except Facebook Messenger. After much tinkering, I am able to receive messages occasionally (not every one), but my only option to reply is a thumbs up. I can't send out on Messenger at all. Is this just the Huawei watch, or is it an AW 2.0 problem? I really want AW 2.0, but not being able to use messenger is a deal breaker for me. I am thinking of returning the watch, but for what? If the other AW 2.0 watches have the same problem, there's little point. Thanks for any help you can give me.

When I created this post, I was on Wear 1.5. Since 2.0, the problems have been fixed for me. I get notifications no problem.
Swipe up on the thumbs up to get more options. Select voice if you want to reply. Even though it says voice, you will be given the option to use the keyboard to respond as well.
Messenger on Huawei watch
I've just got an original Huawei watch and I'm using it with a Umi Super . Having downloaded the Facebook messenger app, when I open it on the phone I get a message saying "To use messenger, install the app on your phone first".
I already have messenger installed on my phone and no matter how many times I uninstall/reinstall. This is I get.
Has anyone else had this? Or have any ideas how to solve it?
Thanks
Same
I have exactly the same problem
Good morning. Does anyone have any idea how I can solve the problem I have with the google dialer? When I am called, it takes a long time for the screen to turn on while the sound is ringing and it is generally slow to show who is calling .... I have tried to clear the application cache .... I have checked that irrelevant applications do not have access to the phone application but nothing .... Is there a solution? Thanks
I have the same issue, it actually started with my Pixel 4 XL. Back then I thought maybe it's just getting old. Now I'm having the exact same issue with my P6P. Tried a factory reset thinking it might have been something that migrated with my backup but that did not help.
I'm chiming in only to say I haven't seen this problem, and hope you figure it out. Not rooted? No custom kernel?
Not rooted and no custom kernel, been considering those as a solution
I never tried the google dialer. Didn't trust the phone enough to put a sim in it until I had self-built google-free aosp (now grapheme) installed. I have not experienced this with aosp dialer.

Which update is your phone on? November or December? If November, maybe try manually flashing the December update, potentially removing the "-w " so that it doesn't wipe your phone.

When you factory reset, did you test the Google dialer without restoring any of your old apps or data?
If the January update doesn't fix it for you when it comes out, I'd consider trying that.
Tried before restoring the apps, but I did restore my contacts and SMS. Same result. Could it be something related to my contacts (around 1400 contacts)?

I doubt it, although I "only" have 635 contacts. Right now I'd say everything is suspect, however. You've got to eliminate every possibility.
I might suspect the number/size of SMS before the number of contacts, but it's worth eliminating both at the same time just to see. Or, as I said, wait until the late January update, but if you still have the problem then you'd have to start from scratch yet again to eliminate those possibilities.

Thanks, will give it a shot after the January update drops
My best guess is that this delay happens when you have got paired an android wear with your phone. Just for testing, I paired amazfit gtr 3 pro with my P6P and this delay does not occur.
But at the same time, If you are running aosp rom, this delay doesn't happen with the dialer even with android wear paired. Strange

Interesting thought, I don't have an Android wear watch paired but I have a fitbit Versa. I haven't had this issue since the January update plus a full wipe.
I had a seperate theory which is related to the number of Google accounts I have on my phone (I had 4 before wiping). I'll keep an eye on it and try to unpair the watch if it re-occurs.

Well well well, I acted as per your theory and deleted all my google account except one that is linked to contacts and I am experiencing quite instant call-in and call-out screen and the contacts also show almost instantly.
Its a shame that android is google's own product and these issues (having more than google account) jeopardize the whole experience. I have read a lot of posts on reddit and other forums for the the same issue and all what google guys suggest is factory reset which is not a pleasant way and the problem persists after that.
Maybe I am too quick to give my feedback and this issue resurfaces even with 1 account. Will keep an eye on that and will post my further findings.

Yeah I reconfirm it as well, no delay in call screens if having 1 Gmail account only.
Culprit is Google phone app I guess, may be it goes through all accounts to search n display the contact that cause this delay. I have tried Google phone app on samsung s21 ultra too n there is same delay with having more than 1 accounts while Samsung own dialer app doesn't suffer this issue.
