Still can't view Google Hangout messages on gear
- Thread starter TopDogg1
- Start date
After the update, did you enable the additional notifications in the gear manager? if you click on notifications, at the bottom there is a 'more notifications' toggle, which then allows you to have any app installed (that would normall have notifications in your task bar) send their notifications to the gear.
This worked for me. I can read the messages from hangouts without any issue at all. I also have facebook notifications and such shown on the watch as well.

I'm having the same issue I'm on wicked v9 now with a samsung galaxy s4 for t-mobile and I don't see a "more notifications" tab anywhere just a notification tab. It has hangout on it but it only opens the app on the phone.
The latest version available to me on the Samsung App Store. Both Note 3 and Gear are full stock, no rooting.
Attached screen caps of how it shows up on my phone. Not sure if it would be different on a different carrier variant, different roms, or different phones etc.

I don't have that option on my gear. I live in the United States and my gear is through my Verizon Galaxy Note 3. Thanks in advance

I am actually shocked. I honestly thought software-wise (with any OTA/Kies updates) we recieved them at the same time. I usually check for availability with AT&T or another american provider because the ones here in Canada are TERRIBLE at giving out updated information.
Sorry I couldn't be of help

That's okay I just got the gear and the Note 3 a couple of days ago. Us in the states usually get stuff late

Are you running an alternate rom on your note 3? Or are you using an s4 or note 2 perhaps? I'm using a stock, fully updated note 3 here in Canada (bought on and sold by bell) with a fully updated gear directly from samsung brick and mortar store.
I still am stumped. I could have sworn American providers got all software updates at same time as, or earlier than, Canadian providers.
I have heard that you needed all software/firmware updated in order for all notifications to show and work. If your gear manager is same version as mine, is your gear firmware same as well?
I attached a picture of my firmware on the gear to compare. The end part I'd the most important, the MK7 part. That's the latest firmware from what I know available to everyone in North america, or so I've been lead to believe.

i had the same issue,
but now it works fine...
TO HELP US :
activate patern on the galaxy gear
on your phone
FOR HANGOUT ONLY :
remove any SMS software (Go SMS, and others)
Because it was the problem for me... (but i will give you a solution after)
activate hangout SMS
Go to options, SMS, and activate Notifications and Vibrate
On the gear manager, go to Notification, more, and check "Hangout"
Go to Hangout, send a message to your own phone number to test it, and wait 1 or 2 minutes to validate if it's okay
FOR GO SMS :
Go to Hangout (if you have) and uncheck the SMS option
Go to GO SMS, settings, "advanced", and UNCHECK other SMS softwares in the section "other settings"
return in "settings", go to "notifications" , check "enable notifications"
go to "defaut notification settings" , and uncheck "vibrate"
Now you can use GO SMS on your phone and receive the notifications from the stock SMS software on your gear
The only one problem is you will receive 2 notifications on your phone, (but only one vibration)
Sorry if the paths and names are not the same in english for you, because my phone is set in French...
