I'm running on an LGV10 running Android M. Is anyone else running M and using the MS Band or Band 2? I can not get SMS text to be pushed to the band. All other notifications are working but Text. Can anyone confirm they are using the Band with M and it's working?
 
I'm having the same issue. We have the same version of everything as well. I tried factory resetting my Band 2 but it still doesn't work.

UPDATE (still doesn't work):
I just did a factory reset on my phone and that didn't work either.

I spoke with Microsoft Support and they informed me it is a known issue with the Band 2 and all Android M devices. It should be fixed in the next Microsoft update. He didn't have an ETA.
 
The Messaging tile still doesn't work but you can get SMS notifications through the Notification Center tile. I rebooted my Band and phone before it actually started working. Hopefully they fix the Messaging tile soon.
 
I got a email from Microsoft yesterday. They told me a major update is headed out this week for the health app and it's supposed to fix the SMS issue.
