[Q] Facebook Messenger - Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

A few months ago facebook messenger messages started showing in full on my moto 360. I could swipe left on the notification and the last 5 or so messages in the conversation would be shown in full. Yesterday I had to reset my moto 360 and now I only see part of the message and when I swipe I only see reply or thumbs up. Am I missing an update somewhere? Thanks.

Nah, it's a staged rollout for Facebook users, kinda like Google's update. Eventually it will just work for you. It happened to me every time I reset and a couple days later the functionality was back.

WM SMS Question

Hi guy's, I have a question regarding the timestamps on SMS messages received in Windows Mobile messenger on my TP2. Throughout the day I can see the times that my messages arrived next to the date displayed, however, after 24 hours if I go back into the inbox and swipe back up to those messages I only see the dates.... Is there anyway to change the settings to allow the times to stay next to the dates or is that not possible?
Thanks a lot for the info!

This same question was raised a few days ago in THIS thread...but I don't believe anybody has come up with any way to get around that yet

[Q] Unread email icon counter not showing

When I first got my Tab I'm sure the email icon would display a small red round circle with the number of unread emails in it. For some reason this seems to have stopped working. I think the dissappearance coincided with me reseting the device.
I'm beginning to think I imagined it. Does anyone have this feature and I'd be grateful to hear how I get it back. I'm on 2.2.

AFAIK it's a setting in the preferences of your launcher...
it just shows first account. every other account is ignored.

Issues with messaging and badges

So I've recently started having a couple issues with my AT&T S8 Plus. I've already performed a factory reset once and wanted to see if anyone else is having similar issues or has ideas.
1. When sending text messages I get a never ending spinning wheel next to the message that it is sending even once the recipient gets it. I seem to have to reboot the device to fix it. Doesn't seem to matter if I'm on wifi or LTE.
2. Badges have been all over the board. I'll have a badge for 8 emails on my home screen and will delete the emails but the badge doesn't go away like it used to. Likewise sometimes I'm getting emails and a notification but no badge. I have to clear the badge manually. This has also happened on the phone app.
Any ideas? Thanks.
Same here with s8+ about badges. Any solution?

Same here as well and plus+ for anyone who could find a solution to this very annoying problem. Tried almost everything.
Disabled Badge Provider for now.
you can long-press an icon and remove the badge

didnt read the whole post, my apologies
I'm having the same issue with badges, but also not getting notifications at all from some apps, including no badges. This seemed to start at some point over the weekend.
just cleared badge providers data from app manager. Seems like its ok for now.
Same is happening to me. Only the last week where WhatsApp and email badges not clearing when messages read. Perhaps a bug has crept in since the recent update.
So annoying
Same prob here with badges not disappearing and messages app status is spinning although message has been sent and received and replied to...Started little over a week ago I guess...Help please...This is killing my OCD.
I am having the exact same issue, for the second time. This started happening about two weeks ago, and it lasted for about two days. Just as I was about to give in and reset the phone, it cleared up on it's own. Texts showed sent right away and badge counts stayed correct. Then it started again two days ago. Totally random. But now, new symptom: apps that were open about the time the issue started, opened by themselves again early this morning. I have NO clue whats happening.

Same with mine. Tried switching themes back to stock which seemed to work for a while now it's doing it again. Such a pain since you have no idea if your msg sent or if it's just the phone acting up. I'm now wondering if it's part of there new battery optimization?
oh man im glad im not the only one with texting issues. its so freaking annoying. i did a hard reset today praying it would fix it, plot twist it didnt. its only the stock app tho. i was running the google app and today that decided it wouldnt recieve any texts out of the blue. im trying to find a way to uninstall or disable the stock app..
Does yours also make duplicate texts?
Samsung Badge timeout is broken
This is happening to me as well. Example WnatsApp or any other app that has a badge for unread notifications or alerts stays that way even after the messages and notifications are read. What works in my case is to keep the App open for about 10 secs or so AFTER the mails/messages etc are read. If it is a notification, just opening the notification does not work. I have to manually open and click on the individual notifications for Samsung to register that as a read. This was the case from the day I purchased the device and has remained the same ever since. Frustrating in the extreme.
Since we're all complaining... me too! Somehow, the latest update has managed to cause a clustermuck to the most basic and useful features. Since I installed it on my S8 last week, my email and whatsapp badges have disappeared so I now need to open the bloody app to see if I have messages.
Meanwhile, my email randomly shows a badge for "11" new emails. It occasionally clears only to reappear later.
Rolling back the update seems to be a royal ball-ache too. Any suggestions welcome.
Same issue here I have tried everything even have some other symptoms
Along with the same issues you're having I am also having issues with clicking on a notification it disappearing and nothing happening and hours later after setting my phone down and coming back to it trying to do something else on it then all of a sudden of the notification pops up and those badges are really making me mad when they don't disappear I tried disabling them couple hours or next day they come back I really like my phone but I'm starting to hate those badges

Messenger not updating some conversations

I can't seem to find find anyone on here with the same problem. I have a stock AT&T S8. I'm using the regular Samsung Messenger for text messaging. One contact (my wife) will not update on the main screen where everyone has the latest text listed by time/date order. The last text it's showing is from a month ago, but when I open it up, it shows the most recent text from today. If I pin the contact to the top, it will stay on the top but the message preview is still from a month ago. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Text Notifications?

On Friday, I installed an update on my stock V20 on Sprint. Since then, I get text notifications sometimes, but not always. I can't seem to pinpoint it. Not specific to certain contracts, not specific to SMS vs MMS (group).
The app icon shows the unread messages. But there's no notification tone/vibration or even an icon in the notification bar.
I have rebooted phone (as well as watch). I have cleared cache on messaging app.
Anyone else experiencing this or have in the past?
I am having the same exact problem!!! It is SO frustrating. No sound or icon in notification bar, just the number by the messages app button. This is happening all the time.

Did it just start with the recent update? I had ZERO issues prior. And it's not even consistent. Sometimes works fine. Other times I'm getting a text from my wife, then another, angry, one 15 minutes later for not responding ?
Problem solved!

I backed up my texts just to be safe but then went into the play store and to the Android messages app. I hut uninstall and it asked if I wanted to uninstall all updates, I hit yes. Since then my notifications seem to be working ?! Hope this helps!

Didn't even think to check for an app update lol. I see there was one out there. Read some comments which reported same issue and then showed it was fixed after updating.
I just updated mine. So hopefully that just fixes it. If not I'll give your method a try. Thanks!
Update. Simple update of messaging app fixed issue. Doh
