Samsung account version 1.6.0010

I own the sm t217a. Since the samsung account update was forced on me. I have been experiencing sync issues with samsung account. I tried uninstalling my sammy account on it and reinstall. That back fired on me. Now calender and contacts in settings under account have disappeared. They do not show up. I know this tab got a recent android update. I froze it and did not take it. So, question is. Has samsung account sync been hosed now. Is this samungs way of spanking for rooting and freezing knox? Is any one in the same boat I am? I have tried all the usual clearing data and cache. Nothing works.. if the answer is choice of not using sammy apps or updrading? Then I will try to find alternative apps. Thanks for any insite.

Not receiving some push notifications

Has anyone experienced problems with some notifications? Just recently I stopped receiving push notifications for both Hangouts and Whatsapp? My messages only appear when I enter the app. I've even cleared the app data for Hangouts, uninstalled, reinstalled, and it solved the problem but only temporarily. I can't determine if it's a phone, marshmallow, or app issue. This is my first time on marshmallow and I've never experienced this before coming from KitKat on my HTC M8.
I've had the same issue since updating the OS software last week. Any help on this would be much appreciated. I'm not receiving push notifications for any apps anymore. All settings are turned on to receive them. I've even downloaded an app to push the notifications and it doesn't work.
Are you sure DND mode is not active?
Absolutely positive.
I managed to fix it through a whatsapp forum about not receiving push notification for that particular app. Hopefully this helps the OP.
When I got my phone I restricted background data on google services because it used 10gb of data within a 10 minute period of turning on my phone, mostly coming from that. For the first 2 months I was still getting push notifications for all my apps, but with the most recent OS update something must have changed it so the settings were no longer compatible.
So I re-enabled background data on google services and it started to work.
See if that helps. If not, I'm stuck on ideas.
Good luck an let us know how you go.
I was wondering if anyone had any problems with yahoo mail I only recently get emails notifications Wen I open the app I can't find anywhere in settings Were you can change sync every 5 minutes or so on I don't know what it's set at

Error in sending SMS through watch

Hi guys. I'm using huawei watch (wear 2.0) with my s7E (Nougat). I am using default Samsung messages app on my phone. But when I use my watch (contacts then to try send message), the message "to improve contact recognition. Google needs to use your device contacts". When I click "turn on", nothing happens.
Please help me fix this. Thanks!
Same
I got the same question on my device at sending an SMS and trying to call people.....
So is my watch just defective? Seems only two people have the issue
Using texting with the same combo S7edge Nougat and AW2.0 Huawei watch just fine...I am using Google Messages on the phone. Maybe the Samsung App isn't ready for AW2.0?
I see. I'm using samsung's default messaging app. I tried installing google messages on my watch but it required me to install google messages on my phone as well. Any workaround aside from installing google messaged?
Apparently you can still send messages using google assistant. Why is that possible while you can't do that using contacts?
I also have the same issue. For me it's now useless as a smartwatch. Don't know why it just stopped working all of a sudden. Hopefully there's a fix soon. I think it's a software issue.

Can't seem to get Google smart passwords working on Apps?

I just got a Oneplus 5t and so far finding it great to use.
But I seem to be having a problem with saved google passwords.
All other android phones I've had of late (s8, mate 10 pro, honor 9, U11) once I am signed into my google account on desktop and phone the password for apps are saved and when I go to log in any of them I get offered the saved email/password.
This doesn't seem to happen on the Oneplus, I get the offer if using a bookmarks in the chrome browser but not for when using an app such as (Amazon, Ebay, facebook)?
I have logged out, reset the sync and rebooted then synced again but still nothing for apps?
Any idea's?

Google hangouts on new galaxy watch

So, I just today got the new Samsung Galaxy watch. I lost my Gear S3 Frontier so decided it was time for an upgrade to the latest Galaxy Watch.
I had it set up perfect on my frontier watch where I used Google Hangouts as both my phone dialer and text message program since that is what I was using on my cellphone anyway. I never used my actual dialer or texting program native on my Samsung Galaxy S9 phone.
My phone has not changed and I retrieved and updated my settings to my new Galaxy Gear phone. But something is amiss...
It was a few years ago but I *THINK* the way I made Google Hangouts messaging program and the Hangouts/Talk dialer work is there was an app by Google either in the Galaxy App store or Google play store and someone passed the messages to my watch.
Now I cant find it or remember the way I made it all work. When I call my Google Voice/Hangouts phone number from another phone I get a quick popup notification on my watch but it does not vibrate nor can I use quick reply or reply at all. I used to be able to do that on my Gear S3 Frontier. Also my watch does vibrate and fully functional on other programs like Facebook messenger.
Anyone know how I can get it to work again like that on my new Galaxy watch? Its a big deal breaker for me since that is my main number Google number!
It won't work because Hangouts is Google App and Samsung run Tizen.
You can reply to messages such as WhatsApp or IG but you can instigate.

Incorrect. I had it working perfectly find on my Samsung Galaxy S3 Frontier watch. You are correct it is Tizen OS on watch but somehow I got it to work perfectly. I think they may have had the hangouts app in the Samsung app store but I dont see it there anymore.
Bottom line there is a way to do it because I have before and it worked perfect with notfication and vibration but I forgot exact how I did it and lost old watch now have the new latest Galaxy Watch.
So I get all other notifications on my new Galaxy watch with both visual popup on watch notifications and vibrations with the exception of the Google hangouts notifications they just show up my watch does not vibrate on those which is the most important thing to me which I am trying to figure out but my phone does vibrate on those alerts.
just wondering if there is an update, would be great to get Google Voice on the Galaxy Watch active 2
