Notification issues, not silencing phone...

Dimitrios Kanellopoulos

Do vibrations work in general ? I first time hear of this issue.

Perhaps @Jamie-BG can help ?

Yes the vibrations work, it vibrates when I choose the pattern of the vibrations and when I reboot the watch.

The notifications do work as I wish but it’s not often.
Phonecalls and text message via Messenger never works like I want.
I just want the watch to vibrate on notifications and calls when I’m wearing it and it’s turned on and for the phone to be silenced.
It worked flawlessly on my former watch, it was a Huawei smartwatch gen 1, I’ve sold it so I can’t test if the notifications work on another watch.
One of my colleagues have a Suunto 7 and notifications work for him. He has a Samsung Galaxy s20+.

@Lars-Bengtsson I have the one plus 7 latest beta and all looks fine tbh. Strange !

Lars Bengtsson

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Strange indeed.
Are you on android 11 beta then or still on 10?
Been in contact with suunto support today and they will look into it and get back to me.
Really strange this one.

@Lars-Bengtsson

How did you manage with Android 11 ?

Lars Bengtsson

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos I haven’t received any update to Android 11 yet. I’ve read it’s been delayed. But when it finally arrives I’m hoping it will fit this problem. It was due in december according to oneplus. Not many days left in december so looks like January.

I’ve read, checked and double checked this help-section.

I’m getting notifications for all my apps on my phone.
I’m getting notifications on my Suunto 7 as well.
The problem is that the watch doesn’t always vibrate
or even wake up when there is a notification and the phone is not silenced as it should be with these settings enabled in Wear OS. Screenshot_20201228-192804.jpg

@Lars-Bengtsson let’s wait a bit if others can help here.

My s7 is on test software so I cannot help so much.

We do have a lot of active users here on wear + s7 I wonder if they are reading …

My S7 works perfect, even the vibration for the notifications. But I still on Android 10 (SMG S10).

Lars Bengtsson

@flypg Good to hear!
Are you also using a oneplus 7 pro?
I’m still on android 10!
Oneplus hasn’t begun to roll out 11 yet!

Yes that might be helpful.
I was hoping some tech-wizzard could tell what settings are wrong or something…

no, no, apologies if I caused confusion mine is, how I published, a Samsung S10 with Android 10.

Lars Bengtsson

@flypg okay I misunderstood you, sorry

Lars Bengtsson

Anyone who’s using the suunto 7 with a oneplus 7 pro or any other oneplus 7 series device?
Or any oneplus device at all, getting desperate here.
I wish I had another suunto 7 to pair with my phone, maybe that could give me a hint on what’s causing the problem.
Maybe it doesn’t have to do with the devices at all and I just have to wait for the android 11 update.
But this is irritating me, I’ve paid a significant amount of money for this watch and it’s not functioning properly. And the support on Suunto is not easy to get ahold of. Tried contacting them on all social media to get some kind of answer.
The help I’m getting here is the most response I’ve gotten in this matter.

@Lars-Bengtsson S7 with OnePlus 7pro. Don’t use phone silence settings as they can cause tracking issue. May be causing your other issues too, as have no problems at all with vibration due to notifications on watch. I think this is further reinforced by the fact you get notifications on watch?, And you vibration dues work for other stuff? Could try rebooting watch and phone (quite often connection issues are phone not watch).

What sort of tracking issues? Maybe it has something to do with my problem also.
The vibration is working when rebooting and such so it works.
Believe me, I’ve rebooted both watch and phone several times. I reboot my devices regularly. I did a factory reset the watch again yesterday, no improvement.
