Wear addListener's onDataChanged isn't being called

Question

I'm encountering a very weird scenario. I implemented both WearableListenerService and Wearable.DataApi.addListener on my wear device, and I am periodically sending data updates from my phone. The WearableListenerService is properly getting onDataChanged callbacks, but my listener in the main activity isn't..

This is my setup for the activity:

onStart() {
    super.onStart();
    googleApiClient.connect();
}

onStop() {
    googleApiClient.disconnect();
    Wearable.DataApi.removeListener(googleApiClient, this);
    super.onStop();
}

onConnected() {
    Wearable.DataApi.addListener(googleApiClient, this);
}

onDataChanged() {
    // never gets called
}

I can post more code, but above is the general gist. On the other hand, my WearableListenerService is properly declared in the AndroidManifest, and simply prints out logs when it receives onDataChanged.

Is there anything obvious I'm missing here?

Yup, `onConnected` is properly getting called, I even added a callback for `addListener`, and it's properly adding the listener. — Jin, Nov 20 '15 at 21:51
and in those cases that your onDataChanged() is not called in this live listener, the one in your WerableListenerService is called? — Ali Naddaf, Nov 20 '15 at 21:57
Yeah the service is getting the callback but not the activity that called `addListener`. — Jin, Nov 20 '15 at 22:23
Can you build a simple project that would exhibit this issue and share the project? — Ali Naddaf, Nov 20 '15 at 23:09

For this you will have to implement one of the following interfaces in your activity:

DataApi.DataListener
MessageApi.MessageListener
NodeApi.NodeListener

See 'With a Listener Activity' part of this android developer documentation.
