Not getting notifications on Gear 2 since Lollipop

[Blipstein]

It's definitely communicating with the watch. BT is connected. If I take a picture with the watch it transfers it over to the device no problem. I am just not receiving notifications (text, email, etc...). Anyone else experiencing this? Any ideas on what to try? Reset the Gear and re-connect?


Thanks

Did you go into the Samsung gear manager and verify all the desired push notifications are on? May have switched off in the update ?

I did. I turned them all off and then back on too. Nothing

I reset and restored the Gear. Didn't help

Another reason not to update to lollipop

I am getting notifications now. I think it took a few reboots and turning BT on and off a a few times. Doesn't really make sense but it's working now.

Glad to hear you got it going...

It's not much help, but as a point of interest, I have a Gear 2 and my Kit Kat to Lollipop upgrade went flawlessly. The phone to watch communication carried on without skipping a beat.
