I have the xiaomi mi 9 and when notification come the gt 2 vibrates and the screen display is of i have to press a button to open the screen so i can see the message. I've done all the settings from the app and notifications and the battery
Unfortunately this is not a bug nor a problem, this is normal behaviour.
You have to raise your wrist to make the screen turn on to see the notification, OR have the display always on.
There is no setting at the app or at the watch to fix this.
I came to GT2 from Amazfit devices and this is my greatest complaint.
All amazfit devices have a setting to wake the screen when a notification arrives.
Anybody having trouble with notification for messaging if having turn on "chat" function. For thoose messages i dont receive notification in watch, if somebody send normal SMS i get notification.

Hi,
When I receive a new E-Mail via Active Sync, I can hear the message sound but display doesn't turn on and no notification is showed.
How I can solve it?
Regards,
Taguapire
check your settings its probably set not to display on the today screen pretty easy
does anyone know how to do this for when you send a text message. you hear a sound but no display notification. thanks
If you're referring to the setting for new emails at Start > Settings > Sounds and Notifications > Notifications, there is nothing there that would affect what I believe the OP is referring to.
I take that back. You can check a box to have a message shown on the display, but not to turn on the display.
I'm running Black Satin, as well, and when I receive an email, I get the sound notification, the status LED notification, and the message on the display, but it will not wake the device up out of standby and turn on the display. I'm not complaining, however, because this is the behavior I desire.
To contrast this, the receipt of a text message will do all of the above, and also wake up the phone and turn on the display. This often results in buttons pushed and programs launched as I take the phone out of my pocket.
I have seen nowhere to control that aspect of notifications.

Hi,
Strange problem with my note 2.
My phone doesn't vibrate when receiving a text message...
I can't see any settings to change when the phone should vibrate or not when on silent.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Andy
weird innit....
in the messaging app, go to settings and scroll down, under "notification settings" you can enable vibrate
Seems to be a bug
I have the same issue, but it is only an issue when the screen is off. If the screen is on, the vibrate feature works as the settings I have indicate it should. It appears to be a bug.
Searched high and low and there isn't a fix that I could find, so I just used Tasker (app) to set the phone to vibrate whenever a text message is received. Does the trick, now it vibrates on SMS receipt whether the screen is on or off.

I have the same issue on my T-Mobile Note 2 running a ported international ROM. It's driving me insane! :crying:
Thanks for the idea with using Tasker. I'm going to give that a try until I find an updated ROM release.
Hi
My watch no longer vibrates when I get a notification or message. It's there if I look manually, but I don't get notified by it. It still vibrates when getting a call or a alarm, so the vibrate function is still functional.
Anyone have any idea what could be the reason?
Thanks in advance
Yup, noticed this too after updating to 5.1.1
This is happening to me too. I hope there is a resolution soon. Missed a meeting.
By design, the watch only vibrates on events that your phone would vibrate for. is it possible you hvae a setting on your phone that is set not to vibrate on messages for some reason?
Are these meetings in Google Calendar? For some reason Google turned of notification by default recently in Google Calendar.
- Go to calendar.google.com
- Go to Settings, Calendar tab
- 'Edit notifications' for your calendar name
- Add a Popup notification
Not sure why they turned this off by default. Pissed off many.
Hi,
I'd like to find a way to mute notifications on my watch when I use my phone (= phone screen is on). It's really annoying when I hold a conversation on Facebook Messenger and every time I receive a message my watch vibrates...
I tried Feel The Wear in a free version - I can set a behaviour, when the phone screen is on, but... it doesn't work. Well, to be precise - when e. g. I set 3 x long pattern for an app and the above option is set to "vibrate", then I'll receive notification with 3 x long and... an extra short vibrate in the meantime. When I change the option to "mute" - there are no 3 x long vibrates, but... still is the short one. I have no idea what's going on with that additional short vibrate - it's not set anywhere...
Another problem with Feel The Wear - it doesn't work with custom patterns in Wear Messages app. I just can't mute that app in any way, its vibrate pattterns override FTW settings.
I tried to use MacroDroid and enabling "do not disturb" mode when screen is on and disabling when it's off. It seemed to be the solution, but... when watch is charging, my phone doesn't vibrate (even though the "don't disturb" is off then).
I have really no idea what else I can try. Do you have any idea wtf with that extra short vibration when using FTW? Do you know if the paid version has any option that would help? Any other ideas what to do with that problem?
I have MiBand 2 also and it doesn't have such problems, it automatically mutes when phone screen is on...
PS I use SW3 with Note 4, 6.0.1.
PS2 In Android Wear app the option "mute phone when wearing watch" is enabled.
I currently own the Samsung Gear S2 Classic smartwatch and was using it successfully with my Pixel 2. Now that I have the Pixel 3, there is one feature I can't seem to get working:
When the Pixel 2 was set to silent (or do not disturb), my watch would still vibrate to let me know when notifications come in. This was great in my work environment as even phone vibrations can be loud in a quiet room.
But now, the Pixel 3 doesn't trigger any vibration on my watch in silent mode. Does anyone know how to get around that?
EDIT:
I now realize that my watch only vibrates when a call comes in, regardless of the phone being in silent mode or not. It won't notify me of any texts, emails, or anything else besides phone calls. Something must be incompatible between the Pixel 3 and Gear S2. I even had to side load an old version of the app because the current one does not show up on the play store when searching from the Pixel 3 (due to incompatibility?)
Did you try to change the setting in the watch itself? Watch usually it's a stand-alone feature. Mine is working just fine so I would say check your watch itself..
There aren't any settings on the watch that would control the watch vibration to stop when the phone is set to silent or DND.
There might be something in the settings for the Pixel 3, but I can't seem to find it. DND and silent mode both trigger vibrations on my watch for the Pixel 2.
Solved! (sort of)
It turns out that my "Reply" app that I use for quick replies to text messages was blocking the notifications from reaching the watch. By disabling it, I am able to get my watch to vibrate when texts come in. However, now I can't send curated replies right from the message pop-up anymore. So I need to figure out which feature I care about more
