About every few months it seems that for no reason what so ever my notifications stop working on my watch and I have to reset it. Does this happen to anyone else? It's very frustrating.
Never happened on my LTE model...

i kind of have something similar but instead of stopping, it can take 5 to 10mins to get them.
i believe it has something to do with battery optimization where something related to the galaxy wearable app gets dozed or something. so to me i think its on the phone side and not the watch.
Happened to me
Yes this just happened to me too. Very frustrating.

i believe it maybe the galaxy wearable app. for about a week now i don't get any email notifs, only texts. everything was working well for a while there.
Check the app on your phone. I had same issue and looked into notification settings and some were changed. I wonder if app update changed my settings.
Theater Mode

Somehow "Theater Mode" got turned on my GWA. I turned it off & notifications came back like before. I am not sure if this was just a coincidence.

Only one app does that on my phone (Ultrachron) and it's a feature to let you know a timer is about to run out.
I would guess it's a (misbehaving?) app in your case, too.

I was thinking the same thing as well. The only app off the top of my head that could cause this sort of thing would be MyBackup Pro since it has a scheduling feature for backups but I never set it up for backups.
I guess a program like BetterBatteryStats can tell you which app switched on the screen.
This used to happen to me when I had my nexus one. Usually it happened when i got a call from a blacklisted number. The call blocker would sometimes be a bit slow on the uptake and the screen would switch on without any noise or call notification. I just happened to check the blocked call log and found that the instances matched.
Maybe something similar is going on with your set up.
Just in case someone else runs into this issue.
My alarm (default app) would get snoozed immideately after going off, thus becoming useless.
I have discovered that if I disable the "OK Google" detection from any screen option, the alarm functions fine.
Hope it helps someone not to miss any important appointments.
The ok google from any screen feature also kills the video camera. You get a "can not record while on a call" warning.

Glad I happened to see this post ... For the past week I've been trying to figure out what was automatically dismissing my alarm ... Uninstalled and reinstalled so many apps and xposed modules and never figured it out. Thanks!

Gald I could help. Also, at least I know that it's not only happening on my phone.
I wonder if the bug has to be submitted to Google or LG?

Running in to a similar issue. But instead of the alarm snoozing. I get a pop up message stating "Alarm/Clock has stopped working" and then a flashing notification light. The problem started just this week. I uninstalled the latest Google update and also turned off OK Google" detection from any screen, but that doesn't seem to have had any impact. Odd that I've had no problems with Google Now up until this past Tuesday.

I was unable to replicate your issue. I only get the "Snoozed" notification.
However, I moved to Timely alarm app since and it works just fine.
Thank you for the response. I was hoping I'd be able to figure out what's the issue is and continue to use the stock app. But looks like I'll have look into a third-party app.
Thanks again.

The recent Google Search update seems to have fixed my issue.
I know there's another auto brightness thread but I think my problem is different. I'll turn it on, leave the phone in standby for a while, and when I use the phone again I find the auto brightness doesn't have the check mark there anymore? Has anyone else noticed this?
I was wondering why my battery was draining so fast when I was using it. That's when I realized my setting was at full brightness but the Auto had become unchecked so it was running at 100 constantly without auto adjusting. I've used the 100/Auto checked on all my other Samsung devices dating back to the Note 2 and S3.
I'm thinking it's a software glitch which will hopefully be fixed in a future update. If it is, I'll live with it for now...
I actually had the same issue and I found that the issue was related to game recorder app I just uninstalled and now is fine
Interesting... I don't have any kind of recorder apps so I'm kind of at a loss as to what other app could cause that...

For what it's worth, I started having other issues yesterday morning. When I first got the phone, and did the OTA, I did a factory reset as was widely recommended to do. Apparently it din't clear up everything.
What I ended up doing was, yesterday, I did another reset using the Samsung Smart Switch software. I backed up what I could, let it reset, and restored afterward. So far it's been 24 hrs and no issues.
I have the same problem with the auto brigthness with my galaxy S6 edge . but when i uninstall the car app from samsung its gone
maybe it works for you too

Interesting.. car mode is the culprit? That's not the only bug in that app then. There's an option to auto close the app when the bluetooth connection is disconnected from the car.. it doesn't work for me.
But I'll just be sitting there doing something and if I'm in a dark room... WHAM I get blinded LOL...
I got a replacement today so I guess the saga continues...

I installed Samsung Switch for pc and did a backup for my edge.
I then did a factory reset.
Restored the backup from Switch.
I also un-installed a Go battery saver application.
Since then no more auto-brightness switching itself off.

I did all of that, except for the app you removed. It behaved itself for a about 24 hrs and still came back. How long has it been for you?

I recently started running nova launcher. It seems like all of the sudden, all notification sounds are not working. I switched back to TouchWiz launcher and the notification sounds did not come back. All my volumes are ALL up, not on mute or vibrate. I have restarted phone several times with no luck. What happened? Does anyone know? Anyone ever come across a similar issue? Nobody out there has ever had something like this happen to the?

I dont have the exact same issue, but I am having a similar one. I am completely stock, no root or anything like that. I am using Nova launcher as well as Google Messenger with RCS activated. I am not getting notification when getting a picture or video anymore. I get notified when a regular text comes thru tho....weird. I tried researching this but have not been able to find anything.
Well, I finally figured out what was causing my problem. It was CM Security. I uninstalled that bs app immediately.

Anyone else having this problem. It's only just happened. I've unpaired, uninstalled software, done everything I can think of. My phone is connected to it but when I get a message etc it doesn't come up on my watch.

I've factory reset my phone and watch. Still not working. A phone call comes up on my watch so it must be a setting I can't work out.
Mine was working yesterday on a stock rooted rom on my phone, but not today on a modified rom. What are you running?

Hi,
I also had issues and did not recieve messages on my watch... (see: https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-watch/help/messages-arriving-watch-t3510071)
Did your recently reset your phone to factory settings?
Because the new version of Android Wear is asking for permissions to recieve notifications.
I did everything but the solution was simple for me:
Open the Android Wear app and on startup page there should be a blue notification which says something like klick here to enable notifications...klick this button and allow the notification permission and everything should work fine now.

You can also access that in Settings > Apps > Gear Icon (upper right) > Advanced / Special Access > Notification access, then toggle on the Android Wear if it is not on
Thanks a bunch... I went to the app and noticed it said not connected... Touch to reconnect... Had to do that 4x and it finally connected

I'm having the same problem only I've done all of the above and it's still not working.
Notifications work for everything except messages and gmail.
It's only been doing it since the watch updated to Android Wear 2.5.
I have reset both the phone and the watch to factory, deleted and reinstalled the apps and still nothing.

Same here after OTA update to 2.5 I can't receive notifications on my watch anymore..had to reset my phone and watch but still not working.
I wonder if there's a way to roll back to 2.0???

Hopefully someone far smarter than me will see this and tell us how easy it is ?
try to "sync all apps" again with the android wear app.. then shut down and restart the watch. This works until I rebooted my phone, then I had to do it again

It's obvious now that the current Android Wear app on the phone needs to be updated to become compatible with the 2.5.
My workaround to this issue was, which I've tested many times and worked so far, finger crossed!:
1-Turn the watch off
2-Turn the Bluetooth off on the phone
3-Turn the watch on completely
4-Turn on the Bluetooth on the phone.
The first notification will take 3-4 seconds to arrive.
Excellent effort. So far that seems to be working for me. I haven't received any messages yet but I'm getting my email notifications (which I wasn't before).
Thank You

Oddly enough though, I followed the instructions step by step and actually had a facebook notification pop up on the watch immediately after it powered up but before I'd turned bluetooth back on on the phone!
@hagba Thank you very much those step work. I also noticed that google assistant doesn't work when you send your first query. You have to ask it something, click on the little colored dots then ask it the same thing again and it works. You have to do this everytime you make any request. Annoying. I hope the knuckleheads at Google will fix these annoying issues soon.

Myself I have no such problem with the Google assistant, it works fine from the first voice command without touching the colored dots, even "Ok Google" works well.
