So. Finally decided to move away from a Casio hand watch and MiBand 4 to Huawei Watch GT2Pro.
This wasn't an easy decision as I know Huawei's LiteOS isn't android GearOS but from all the list of pros and cons, I think it wasn't such a bad decision.
Of course the Russian Internet trolls will constantly throw the same topics about Huawei's watch in the comments in social media that "No NFC?!" and "Can't install apps! Samsung is the best" but I have just realised that I just don't really need it.
It is always a case of ticking off the boxes when buying something that has a long list of requirements.
But. Anyway.
As in the topic. There is only one thing which does really bother me.
When a text message (or What's App message) arrives to my phone (Huawei P20Pro) I do get the notification on the phone and the notification on my watch.
If I will clear the notification on the Huawei Watch GT2 Pro, the notification about new text message will still remain "unread" on my phone.
And sadly, I can't get over it and can accept that it works this way.
Can anyone recommend anything to fix it?
I do understand that so far this is how this works out of the box, but I am hoping that there might be an additional app (like Miband tools for MiBand) or at least any contact to Huawei to raise it as a concern/complain?
I have tried speaking to Huawei UK customer service but sadly, they are just the customer service for distribution and the only thing that was offered to me was an opportunity to return the watch.
I have also tried to find any info about HarmonyOS 2.0 and if it would actually be coming live any time soon, but this topic seems to be:
a) dead
b) delayed to the point that any news are just YT oriented views-focused sh** videos
c) nowhere an info to confirm for sure that this system would be available for GT2Pro
anyone may help?
Even to help where to send an email for Huawei to even "consider" that this is really essential for the watch to be "almost perfect"?
No action on notifications from Huawei Watch. Huawei just display the notification when arrive on phone. Even if you delete this notification on your phone this stay on your watch. (and of course if you delete from the watch they stay on phone) You must delete 2 times
On Amazfit watch the notification on watch match the phone notification and if you delete on watch they are also delete on phone (but just delete, no read mark )
I own a GT2 Pro since yesterday and thats what is annoying me also. Could you find out any solution?
Otherwise I'm thinking of returning the watch. I really like the watch, but the notification issue is annoying
Got mine today. The notification thingy is the only prob that bugs me. Other than that I am ready to retire my old Ticwatch Pro. Hope the promised os update from liteos to harmonyos fixes this problem. Other than that, a beautiful watch with great battery life!
Hope that after the launch of hw3, the harmony update for gt series rolls out soon!
HUAWEI Watch 3 with Harmony OS set to launch on June 2
The HUAWEI Watch 3 is set to launch alongside Harmony OS on June 2. The flagship smartwatch could bring eSIM support and a long battery life.
www.androidauthority.com
Notification management is not good enough on Huawei watches. HarmonyOS is even less finished OS.
notification won't light up the screen
notification dismissed from the watch won't be dismissed from the phone and vice versa
notifications don't have the specific app icons except few
can't reply to notifications with custom text except few messengers on Watch3
calls from messengers won't get a notification or popup screen at all
some notifications come twice
so a year later there is nothing new.

yeah this is valid for both GT2, GT3 and Watch3. I look at all the changelogs. Given the fact that Watch3 is pretty dumb, i wanted to downgrade to GT2Pro. But GT2 has one more issue: cannot display emojis.

Having extensive experience with both phone watches and BT-enabled watches, I want to make an important remark to firmware/software developers for these devices, more so after having recently acquired a SONY Smartwatch.
It is simple: NOTIFICATIONS NEED TO BE PUSHED ALL THE WAY. ALL GOODS NEED TO BE DELIVERED.
In the Sony Smartwatch, a vibration accompanied by a Gmail logo is useless. Having me awake the watch, click on ‘Events’, click again on the message and only then being able to see the email message defeats the purpose of immediateness. Probably easier for me to reach out to the phone and see what the notification is about.
The right way to go is simple: everything the phone has in terms of message info needs to be pushed to the watch notification:
“Email from John Doe
To [email protected]
Subject: Dinner on Tue
->And the entire body”
Same with SMS, IM notifications, or anything. Having only the SMS or Gmail or Whatsapp logos and have to hunt down for the message in the watch is absurd.
The way the MBW-150 worked offered way more info at a glance; Sony is moving backward with this minimalistic notification approach. More is needed.
Secondly: let me disable BT on the watch (say when batt is low or overnight) without forcing me to shut down the device -> no time telling anymore.
Third: watch brightness needs to be adjustable from the watch itself (let me manage battery life myself, I’m a grown up).
Fourth: an audio beep won’t kill anyone. When I’m driving, for instance, I cannot feel the phone vibration. A CASIO-style ‘beep-beep’ cannot hurt. While I understand this may involve additional hardware and pose operational complexities, this is a nice-to-have feature.
First two remarks are KEY, and I’d appreciate not only Sony but everybody involved in such development to think a bit smart before pouring a fortune into development.
Anyone has anything else worth highlighting?
Thanks
Sure dude. But first things first... I would scream that let these things display the clock at all times. Failure to do so defeats the whole watch disguise!

Which app are you using to get Gmail notifications?

I am messing with Customnotifier, GMail notifier (not 2), and RSS (which works best but drains the battery on the phone if set to frequent checks).
In any event, on the watch I only get an icon on the screen, no further info.

Well they are moving in the right direction. With the updated firmware, that was released today, you are able to do a couple more things. You now have an option of leaving new watch faces on at all times. Also with notifications, you can now single tap the new notification icon and it will take you straight to the notification!

Yes indeed. Touchscreen seems a tad more responsive now also, more polished.
Still, notifications need to appear spontaneously -no need to tap- and bightness should be adjustable -too much backlight for me; always staying indoors.
But it's a good step fwd and the app in the phone is more efficient.
Hi, I'm Considering buying this watch simply cos I'm a geek I guess, but, if it is possible for sony to update the firmware/create new apps, and others also to create new apps etc, isn't it almost inevitable that more detailed notifications will be developed eventually? Or am I wrong, is it up to just sony to develope new apps etc, meaning we'll have to wait for just them to decide, taking ages etc? (Unlinke the wimm one for example)..
It does look great, but I agree, notifications really MUST include details, and if this is a future possibility, then I'll get one. (Mainly due to the wimm one not being on sale over here yet! Arrghh!)

The notifications seem detailed to me I mean you see the icon if you want to read the message tap the icon once. I like the screen always on update but I won't use it often since I rather have the battery last through the week.
I've checked back ever so often and there new apps popping up so I think development will only improve. Its honestly one of my favorite phone accessories I would recommend trying it out.

I agree I can't wait til they update to allow adjustment of of the backlight. The notifications I find using the MMS notifier over Sony's I get no delay in the notifications. The Gmail notifier app I use for Gmail sends me the notice without delay also.
Have you looked at the Metawatch at all? That ended up being my choice. Waiting for delivery.

Good choice RedRamage. I have the analog Metawatch and expect the new iOS digital version any day. Latest phone console release and functions here
OP - fullly agree with the "at a glance" concept. Metawatch provided this for me and I have the Sony, WIMM, original Liveview and MotoACTV also.
Only very recently I was able to stop using MetaWatch and switch to the Sony only for this. See my blog @ augmentedtraffic.wordpress.com/2012/06/09/finally-true-real-time-at-a-glance-notifications-on-sony-smart-watch (you need to cut & paste into a browser since I have < 10 posts).
I use Tasker/K-9 combined with my app to get "at a glance' on a SonyWatch!
I am still testing battery life, but it seems OK. I haven't put the app on the market as yet as it is very customized to my use cases and it may be a bit too much for others to use. The only thing I am currently missing from the MetaWatch is the next upcoming appointment. I have everything else I was using (notifications at a glance, phone battery life, location, weather). I even added my last Withings scale weigh-in
Ok, I've got both of the 1st Gen MetaWatch models (The bt2 Analog and Digital ones), and maintain a popular fork of the Android MW software (see link in my sig), so I'll try and answer your points in relation to that watch.
1) Yes, MW will display your notifications as soon as the phone does - gmail is a little tricky as google keeps changing/modifying/revoking permissions with the official gmail app, so the information available to the watch manager app can be a little sketchy. If you use k-9 mail, you'll see the sender and subject. It doesn't display body text yet, but that is doable. Gmail would also be fixable by just making the app go to the gmail server directly and pull the message text when the new mail notification comes in.
The fork I maintain has an "Other notifications" Option, that lets you selectively display any android notification, although the OS limits how much information we can actually pull. If anyone has requests for additional notification support, then I'm happy to try adding it, assuming the developer of the app has provided intents or an api to access that information.
Currently notifications will stay on screen for a few seconds, then disappear (except for the SMS notifications, which, on the digital watch can be set to stay on screen until dismissed, as you can see the full body, and scroll) - On the digital watch you can configure a button to redisplay the last notification again if you missed it, and there's an on watch menu of all the previous notifications which is only a few button presses away.
2) Yes, all the MW models have a menu option (on the watch) that let you disable BT without turning off the watch, so you can still tell the time
3) Yes, the Analog MW model has menu options to configure the OLED brightness. There's nothing to configure on the Digital model, as it has an always on LCD screen (though there's an option in my fork of the app to automatically turn on its light when a notification comes in)
4) The MWs don't have a speaker, but they do have a powerful vibrator inside - it's pretty hard to miss it when it does vibrate, and the app lets you configure different vibration patterns for different notifications, so you can know what sort of message it was without even looking.
Let me know if you've got any other questions!
MW has some very good stuff, I'm quite familiar with it.
Pity -both for MW and SW- is the poor pixel density. I believe MOTO has a much better display.
B/W displays appear sub-optimal to me and definitely not the direction the market wants to move toward.
Also, beyond the immediate 'at-a-glance' notification, can you read within the watch the full email or notification in MW? This is also a key element.
One more topic I missed on SW is that once connection is lost we need not only vibration but some on-screen display, like a warning sign or something. This feature prevented me from leaving behind a SGSII in a bar when I was using my ancient MBW-150. Vibration won't typically suffice.
I survive 2.5 full days with heavy notification traffic with my SW. How long you stay unplugged with MW under heavy traffic?
Thanks for the good discussion.

As I said, the current software doesn't support that, but it's something I'm planning on adding.
SMS messages currently support this - you can page through a long message, then dismiss it when you're done, so I just need to add the code to pull out (and strip html from) the body text - I know for certain that it's easily possible using k-9 mail, gmail will probably need work to talk to google's mail server directly to get the message text.

Yes, it'll display a "No watch connection" icon in the top right of the time display, which is pretty hard to miss!

I tend to get 2 or 3 days, depending on what I'm doing - 3 days for medium traffic, 2 for heavy traffic (usually when I'm developing features, so pushing lots of data to the watch)
3 days = Taken off the charger on Monday morning, needs to go back on the charger Wednesday evening before I go to bed.
I could probably get much longer battery life if I manually turned bt off each night, and back in the morning, but I like having my watch vibrate in the morning when the alarm goes off! Perhaps adding a "bt sleep" mode to the firmware would be a good addition.
How long does your battery last on the Sony Smartwatch if you keep the small digital clock on at all times?
I've had my watch a little over a week and haven't been able to make it through the day yet even with minimal notifications. The battery life has been very disappointing.
@benjymous:
I forgot to note that I shut it down when I go to sleep. In the morning I turn it on with no pairing issues, so we'd be looking at 18h/day actual uptime, for a total of say 45h per charge. Not stellar by any means.
@tjrhine:
It didn't even cross my mind to have the screen on full-time. It is obvious you won't make it tremendously far (I think the bat has a capacity below 130). No way. I push the button to get the time, I can live with this.
I also need to report that the glass is far from scratchproof. That's something that really pisses people off. Next HW release should DEFINITELY include at least Gorilla Glass and certainly a bigger battery. The thickness of the plastic clip and the strap can be each reduced by about half a millimeter that combined gives you 1mm that they should invest in a bigger capacity batt.
And obviously, a standard usb port.
Please keep ideas coming folks, thanks.
And this is how the notification queue should look like:

I'm having exact same problem - Battery lasts barely 8-10 hrs. Do we need replacement watches?

How do I stop the f***ing Huawei Tips notifications on this phone? I uninstalled the Tips app and the notifications still pop up (WITH SOUND!!)...
I am seriously thinking of returning this phone. Huawei has become so intrusive and annoying with their data collecting software that I don't want to fund their business anymore. This is getting worse than Sony. I dumped Sony phones when they started pre-installing stuff that you can't remove and I am beginning to see that it will end up the same way with Huawei.
This is madness. Even the Huawei Video app sends stupid notifications....
Between these notifications and the Huawei search app hijacking the phone every time you just slightly swipe downwards by mistake this phone is driving me crazy.

It will give tips for a couple of days and it will stop after that automatically. Its same with every EMUI 9 Phones.
So do you think it is acceptable to send noisy notifications that the phone owner has no way to stop? We must wait for the phone to stop by itself on the basis of what a stupid Huawei product manager had decided for us.
How about a "Tips" app that gives tips on how to stop annoying notifications?

I think you have not disabled it. Might be a overlook
Check again if it's already disabled enable it and then disable it.
Once the app is disabled it would not show alerts.
My tips app was uninstallable with no tinkering. Bought in the UK from carphone warehouse. As I understand it, the Chinese version of the phone is heavily locked down.

I got my wife the Samsung Galaxy active watch and it paired just fine with her Pixel 3 XL. The watch is missing a messaging app. She is able to get messaging notifications and reply to messages, but can't access previous messages because the little blue messaging app is nowhere on her watch. I tried to got to app store on the watch but couldn't find anything to download. All reviews on YouTube show that app right from the start. Am I missing something? Is this an option only for Galaxy phones? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

You won't be able to see the messages unless you you a Samsung phone (which has the messages app), but when you get a text message, it will show on the watch, you can reply back to it and see previous messages. Make sure you have "messages" notifications enabled from the wear app. I am using the galaxy watch with the pixel 3 xl.

Hey dude, I don't have one but am considering switching to it from my Fossil Sport because the Sport battery sucks. I have a couple questions for you since you're the only person who said they have one that I found! If you don't mind:
1. What's your battery life like?
2. I use the Nike Run app... if you open it on your phone will you geet any view of it on the Samsung watch?? That is why I originally got the Fossil
3. Do you think the Active is just as good with your Pixel as it would be with a Samsung? I have an S10+ now but I change phones like most people change underwear lol.
4. Anything else you can tell me to help me make my final decision..
PLEASE!!!! lol. thanks man.

Hey there,
1.Battery life in my case is like around 15% usage a day which is great given, the idea of the tizen is very different than wear os. sarcastically, I got the fossil sport as well, and I have been using that over the galaxy watch. The galaxy sport would probably have a great battery as well, maybe a little less than the galaxy watch.
2. I have not seen the nike app on the galaxy watch, however, I have used s-health. I was able to get decent tracking but without a map gps, you'd be limited to mapmyrun a few other ones, I honestly only used shealth since I found third party apps to drain the battery much much much quicker.
3. Yes, going with the active would be a solid choice, again, then only thing you won't get is the ability to recall text messages at any time, but you'd be able to view them and reply back to them as notifications or as they come in + you can compose a new one. Keep in mind that it doesn't have the real bixby, it is s-voice, which is extreme trash.
I also change phones like underwear "JOD"... It even works on the iphone but that's different "you won't be able to reply to notifications or messages, just view them"
3.a -- there is an app called pulse sms I believe or something like that that would allow you to sync text messages on the watch, view them, do anything you'd want with them, just will drain your phone's battery and watch like crazy.
4. Anything to help you. Well, if you will hold onto your android wear, it is nice to have both. I went back to android wear "with the faults of it and the bad battery life over the galaxy wear stuff", for me:
Pros of the galaxy wear:
-Great battery life.
-Consistent performance "once in a while it would lag but not that much"
Cons:
-Using it as a smart device is just not great.
-It is s-voice branded bixby which is just bad, like really frustrating to use, to the point that you'd find yourself typing on the t9 keyboard they provide rather than talking to that piece of S.
-App support sucks. Forexample, I am grocery shopping and I made a list in google keep, and I don't want to have my phone out, you can't pull google keep on the watch like android wear. Also, other apps like spotify is more frustrating to use than good.
-No google assistant. I use smart home stuff, and unless you have the samsung hub, you cannot control your stuff, wink, wemo ifftt, etc. That ecosystem is still very very very poor compared to android wear.
Overall: If you are looking for a watch with great battery life, and the ability to see and minimally reply back to text messages while using stock-ish apps like s-health and you're okay with a very limited app and community support, go for it.
If you're looking to have more apps, watch-faces, voice assistant, more fitness apps, you're in the google eco-system, stay with wear OS because it can be a very unpleasant experience after the honey-moon period.
Hope this helps, let me know if you have anymore questions.
Thanks that exactly what I needed. Today my Fossil battery life was way better so maybe it just had to bake in after the recent update. I went with Android WearOS originally because of the app support and potential. I'm hoping the battery continues to get better. I was struggling to make a day without a bit of a charge, however I'm on my final walk with the dog today and it's still around 30% after a 7am wake up. I couldn't justify both watches but I'm jealous you have em lol

I hear you, one was a gift and I wanted the fossil and it was on discount so picked it up.
Just got myself a GT 2 - love the hardware and just hope I will be able to live with the software. There are a few thing I haven't found, can you please let me know if I'm missing something?
Is there no way to adjust the step goal per day? It is set to 10.000 steps and I want to change it.
Can't I receive notifications while in the workout mode, like a walk och running?
If I get a notification on my phone and delete it from the phone it is still visible on my watch. And if I delete a notification on my watch it is still visible on my phone. This can't be right?
Is there no way to see coming calendar entries?
I got a Gmail but could only see the subject and sender, nothing of the content?
Is it likely that more features will be added, maybe when GT 3 is released?
After an update incomming phone calls do not show up on my watch. And in the list in the Health app I can no longer enable notifications from "Phone". Anyone else with this issue?
Would really appreciate if someone could comment on the above.
Thanks a lot!
You're right, hardware is great, software is limited.
#1, change step goal in Health app on phone (settings, goal).
#2-5, unfortunately correct.
Having said that, I'm wearing this watch since December, day and night, only taking out during shower. I have latest Samsung watches, have few Wear watches, like all of them, but GT2 just looks great and does just enough job (tell time and show notifications). I've loaded multiple custom watches and love it.

Wow, that one wasn't there until I switched to English language on my phone. Now it was there and I could finally change it. What a bug
Regarding incoming call I cannot even find "Phone" under notification settings in the long list of all available apps. It worked just fine when I got the watch a week ago. Do you have "Phone" in the app list in the Health app under "Notifications"?
Firmware: 1.0.6.32
Health app version: 10.0.5.317
No, if you gave Health app permissions, it will do its work, no need for separate settings, just watch needs to be connected to phone via bluetooth.
Only had the GT2 watch for 2 weeks but the last couple of days I started getting double and sometimes triple identical notifications on the watch from WhatsApp. Everything looks fine on the phone but for some reasons some messages are shown double on the watch.
Has anyone else experienced this?
Same
Same here. Android one v. 10 + Health v 10.0.5.332

It's been addressed to Huawei's forums early January and still not fixed, even with today's update.
https://consumer.huawei.com/uk/comm...icate-messages-in-notification/topicId_14074/
Still not fixed! I've just started noticing this bug on my new Honor GS Pro, which has kind of the same system as the GT 2. I find it absolutely unacceptable. Huawei must have known about this for a very long time, and they don't seem to care, or they simply cannot fix it. It's not the first and only issue that I'm having with my new watch in conjunction with their Health app. I think I'm going to return the watch and get myself another brand, even if that means sacrificing the advantage of a long-lasting battery. Overall, I really like the GS Pro, but that kind of laissez-faire from a company like Huawei really annoys me. A lot. Plus, I simply don't want to see several notifications for each and every new message. Get your sh** together, Huawei !!!
I watch this YouTube video on how to add custom watches and you have to download a slightly different version of the health app and since then I have had 0 duplicate notifications hope this helps someone else
