I'm using Ricky's ROM with topbar, and I can't seem to get rid of the unread mail icon near the top left. When I look at the sliding panel that has missed calls, voicemails, unread emails, etc - they all say 0, but the icon won't go away. Something I'm doing wrong?

I get this sometimes as well. If you know what app created the icon (Outlook, TXT message, 3rd party email, etc), then you just need to click on it and then perhaps click on the message again (even if it is read). It *should* disappear after that.
You HAVE unread messages somewhere Double check....
Whenever you reboot your phone or turn it off and on, refresh the screen, whatever, it will not display any numbers or info next to your missed calls or messages. It is something stupid about the system. It doesn't keep track in a good way of missed calls or what not, but then again, I can't think of any phone that does this well. Most phones that have this type of setup where it displays your messages or missed calls in a panel, don't have the ability to save that info once the phone has been rebooted.
I know this happens to me, it's just the way things are. You just have to roll with the punches. Sorry.
If you are running CHomeWeather, when it updates the plugin, it reloads your homescreen, so this might be what's causing you this problem.
Sorry to jump into your thread with a question, but I've just bought my dash, and already enjoying v23.
my question is what is the 'E'? (is it email? how to get rid of it) and anyway to disable to up-down arrow in the top center?

Yes, you did. The "E" is for the Edge network ("G" is for GPRS.) The up/down arrow is for the JOGGR scrolling feature. You can disable it in the JOGGR settings.

it seems to be a threading glitch.
viewing the message sometimes doesnt reset the notification icon.
As stated above, quickly click on the text message feature in the panel and quickly followed by the end key. WOrks for me.
Ok - I just feel silly asking this question but whenever I get an sms on the lockscreen I get the sender and some text of the sms (I activated "preview" in the sms app) but if I press that message all I get is an empty box. If I press on the message and pull it downwards I would expect it to expand so that I can read it all but it doesn't. What is the point of the box if you press the message?
Thanks and happy holidays!

Will somebody please take me out of my misery?
Hey all,
Please don't flame, I am just looking for help (and I did search, I just want to make sure I am reading the state of things correctly).
I got a Moto360, and I use a Gear Fit. Is there still no way (on an S5) to use a "quick reply" to a text? Using the stock app? It is so nice on the Fit to just swipe a pre-configured text reply. I can't seem to do that on the 360, and what I read indicates I have to use a third party app?? Seems backward, but do I have that right?
Also, I can't seem to get my 360 to vibrate when I get a notification (email or text). I'm sure this is just user error, but I can't find the setting.
Thanks
When you receive a text, swipe to the right until you see reply, then if the speech request comes up, tap the screen again to get the quick reply options.
Pull down from the main clock screen and you'll see the mute/unmute. You're probably muted. Muted in this device's case means vibrate/don't vibrate (there's no speaker).
Hope this helps.

Thanks. I tried it, and when I get to the speech request, there don't seem to be any other pages. I swipe all directions, and all I can do is go back. Do I need to configure it somewhere?
You say you're swiping in all directions. Just tap in the center. So to sum it up:
Recieve text message
Swipe to the left to read it
Swipe again to the left to Reply, then tap
When speech req box comes up, tap, and that should bring up the canned reply menu

Thanks for sticking with me. I admit to being daft. Unless you're having a laugh on me, I just can't see it. When I get a text, I open it, tap "reply", get the voice dictation screen, and...nothing. I swipe, tap, double tap, nothing opens any submenu and I never see any canned replies. Any idea what I'm missing??
I'm using an S5, if that matters...
EDIT: It must have something to do with the type of messaging app. The stock Samsung app acts weird; this one just lets you hit "reply", then it sends a blank text. Handsent SMS doesn't even give you a reply option. Textra allows you to reply and pops up the voice reply app. If there an app that has the canned responses? Or is it just a flat spot for Samsung?
My experiences:
~Stock messaging app on my Nexus 4: swipe left, no reply feature on watch, only "open on phone"
~Go SMS Pro: swipe left, no reply feature on watch...which is weird because it used to have it...I swear it did...
~Messenger (from Google): swipe left (shows full conversation thread), swipe left again, tap reply, start speaking when it shows "speak now"
So it would appear that different apps do function differently on the watch.
Ah, yes, it does depend on the app you're using. I'm using Google Hangouts.
Note- Google Hangouts, not Messenger.
So, for anyone that cares, your mileage will vary GREATLY depending on what messaging app you use. It's a little disappointing that a relatively "dumber" device like the Fit (which I bought for $79) works like a champ with replying to texts, and the "smart" watch is a little dumb with such a basic feature. I will give Hangouts a try, although I am not crazy about the looks of the UI.
Thanks guys, and if there are others apps that work well with SMS, please let me know.
When you go to reply screen with Google screen, swipe up to reveal canned texts.
Works with hangouts and messenger

This is the fault of the app makers, not Android Wear.

Be that as it may, and I'm sure it is, it still stinks.
So, if you're looking, the canned texts works with Hangouts and Messenger ONLY that I've found. Have you guys found a way to add custom canned text?

Sure. I just felt the distinction was important, as software issues get fixed or features added. Device design flaws don't.
There's an app called wear canned responses .. But your phone need to be rooted.. It uses xposed... Also xposed doesn't work on lollipop

Has anyone found any other apps that allow a text response OTHER than Hangouts?
Hoping people can answer as this phone comes out in the coming weeks.
I remember the M9 not having a few common Android features and am wondering if the 10 has these:
- Lockscreen: when a text message is received, are you able to swipe up on it to reply?
- When receiving a text while in an app, can you reply by swiping down? Or in an overlay (instead of having to open the app to reply)
- Does the screen turn on when receiving a notification?
Thanks

I don't allow text messages on the lockscreen, so I can't answer your first two questions. The answer to your third question is "no."
how to fix problem when swipe up notification bar??
When I pull down the notification bar it seems working properly (two-face procedure) but when I swipe up to make it disappear, it comes down again. More specifically, the first time I swipe up it goes up to the point it should be, but on the second scroll it appears again, like when I pull it down. So, I am able to see again the entire panel. To remove it I have to do the whole process very slowly and it is really annoying.
I am having an issue/annoyance with my Sprint Samsung Galaxy S9 and I hope you all are able to help. My device is currently setup so that when I get a text I receive the notification in the bar, I am then able to pull the notification bar down to read a portion or all of the text and am given the option to reply (a short message) directly through this feature. When I do this and click the send arrow and very quickly thereafter I receive another notification as if I had gotten a new or different text when in fact, when I slide the notification bar down, it is just just my own sent text being shown to me. Hopefully this makes sense to some of you. It is really annoying to me. I always thought that in the past if you did a quick reply the notifications would auto go-away unless you actually recieve a new/different text message.
Any insight?
Thanks
Bro, it's not an issue, it's actually helpful in a lot of ways.
For example if I had to reply to an important message without being "online" on whatsapp, I can send many messages from just the notification panel, so I can see the whole conversation from there without opening the app. I think it's a very handy feature.
Simply when you reply to a conversation and you don't need to utilize this feature, just swipe the notification to the left/right and you won't see a notification unless you recieve a new message.

So swipe away the notification once you have sent your message, happens here too if I leave the notification there after replying
I don't see the benefit
I don't use WhatsApp, but regardless I don't need my notification light to keep flashing as a result of me replying to a text via quick reply feature. Like I said, it's just an annoyance for me that I don't recall dealing with on any of my galaxy devices and I was merely trying to see if there was a way to toggle this "feature."

Why can't you swipe the notification away? Two people have already told you that will stop it
I CAN, and DO

Yes, I can read and that's what I already do. The whole purpose of the thread was to see if there was an option to toggle this useless feature off. I would have already read and/or replied to the specific text, thus not needing to have to REacknowldge or "swipe" the notice away for a second time...leaving my light flashing until I go to it 2 times.

You should explain in your first post what you have and have not done so people know before replying....
No, no toggle other than disabling notification LED altogether either system wide or for that app
Phone is obviously thinking your reply is a new message, which in a way it is, although already reading it should inform it that you have read it and it is not new, but as it does not, keep swiping and report to Samsung

this might actually be a sprint issue. the app that you use to do your quick replies, do you know what its called? my S9 doesnt have a feature like that on it and its running the may security patch update, so its not on an old firmware and just missing a new feature.
glitchy stuff like what youre experiencing can be often solved with a factory reset

It's not an app, it's literally the notification pulldown which you can reply from, when you receive a message and pull down the notification to read it, under the message is a reply button, press that and it opens a little reply text box on the notification dropdown, when you press send and turn off the screen it flashes the LED to say there is an unread notification which is actually your reply still sitting in the notification dropdown, only way to stop it is to swipe away
Got it here with unbranded G960F S9 in the UK on o2

ok, i just tested that out, and i was able to use the quick reply feature and didnt get a residual notif. rec'd test, went to pulldown, hit the little enter key button which revealed a reply field taht wasnt part of my default text app, typed a reply, sent it, locked screen, no flashing light, no further notif. seems like mine is working like its supposed to
edit: i also verified that the intended recipients got my replies. no notifs for my outbound messages on my device

You have hit the nail on the head! This exactly what I am referring to. No app, just default texting app. Exactly as you described.
SM-G960U on Sprint Network for me.
Most up to date software I believe, at least that's what my device tells me.
