using GB-6900 with HTC One M7 disconnects from time to time but reconnects without any issues

also tried with my wife's Note 2 works as well

tried with my dad's moto g unfortunately app is not available on playstore, tried sending an apk from my phone it won't install. moto g is updated probably 4.4.2
[General Accessories] gutzzz:
Working almost flawless with my Moto G 4.4.4. Maybe you got a wrong apk version :D

Initially it wasn't able to reconnect when signal is lost or BT turned off but fixed after updated to 4.4.4

Also try to change your phone BT name to something simple (use a name without a symbol)

Here is my apk: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/14284032/com.casio.gshockplus-1.apk
[General Accessories] Bicklp:
Can someone send me the apk please

Have a nexus 5 and want to give it a go

Cheers

Please check my post above and try it :D

Compatible watches are:

CASIO G-SHOCK GB-5600 models

It can send custom notifications (selecting from installed applications), incoming call notifications, time synchronization... and more to come!

thank you very much. See you
[General Accessories] system02:
Great news! Thank you!

A general question regarding the casio watch: Do you guys have problems with pairing the watch or clearing the paired devices on the watch?

Sometimes it takes approximately 20 times to get that thing paired or reset. Is this normal or should I exchange the watch for repair?
[General Accessories] sunnysawrav:
Note 2 works with G Shock app TESTED

OK, so there's a trick involved.

I had gotten bored with the OS on the phone. So, I installed DN4. Ditto Note 4. (Search the forum for it).

And only after purchasing the G Shock GBA 400 which is the music controlling watch, had I done the research for compatibility. (Stupid me )

Anyway, so I was considering to buy the BlueWatcher app (Play Store) in case things don't go right.

So the watch arrived just an hour back (1 PM GMT +5:30) and I thought let's just give it a shot and Voila!!!! It worked! Everything works. The connection happens in 5 seconds. All systems and settings go.

So, here's the thing. If you are willing to let go of the boring Note II OS, then go for DN4 which is a fairly better ROM based on Touchwiz so you could use your SPen as well. And remember to install their latest build. Check their site. The team behind this is called Electron Team. They have a website too. Install the latest TWRP and load the ROM through recovery. Wipe all before use. That's how I did it, anyway.

And hey, G Shock+ and G Mix App work like charm. Hope this helps out.

I just find out that we can implement any Bluetooth profiles into a phone :)

so I'm continuing my research to find these profiles and the method to do it..

I couldn't find anything useful in the forum that can help us..

I found some software in Google play.. so it means it's possible to do it..

example..

Bluetooth SIM Access Profile

G-shock Gb-6900 and S3/Nexus

I would be glad if i can get this japanese android g-shock app , in the description (Japanese) at the the japanese store is mentioned that it supports the GB-9600 BT models

i 've got a S3 and a Nexus 7 !

It would be great if i can check this out on one of these devices

:good:
[General Accessories] vartanm:
I'll send it to you.. (check your e-mail)

let us know what happens ..

the problem is you have to pair the watch first to the phone, if that is done later u need the app.
[General Accessories] nalahia@gmail.com:
g-shock android

another thnx for sending me the app !

The japanese android app isn't working unfortunately.

I think the best option is to wait for de android app , just read een article that on the CES2013 that

perhaps

the android compatibilty is going to be released in the future.

:good:
[General Accessories] vartanm:
no, i doubt that.

their reply was ..

Dear Customer,

Thank you for your e-mail.

Unfortunately, the all supported android smartphones are available in Japan only.

and i contacted samsung company to ask about help like updates etc again nothing they can do.. they blame the casio ..etc

i think the only solution is for someone interested in this watch and has the knowledge to build the missing BT profiles for our phones.

---------- Post added at 02:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:35 AM ----------

i found more info about the profiles .. can anyone tell if we can use them ?

http://developer.bluetooth.org/gatt/profiles/Pages/ProfilesHome.aspx

http://developer.bluetooth.org/gatt/Pages/GATT-Specification-Documents.aspx

maybe a developer can make a software to support these profiles ..

I'm ready to pay if anyone can do the job..

i have a gb-5600aa-1ajf (replaced the bezel/strap with generic casio non-glossy 5600 parts) and i am very interested in getting it to work with android as well. the one function i'm most interested in is the vibration to notify if out of range of phone (though silly since my note 2 is so large that i'm sure to notice if i don't have it..).
[General Accessories] vartanm:
i have a zomm it does a lot of things even answers ur phone etc.. but the watch is more practical that's why i like it :)

---------- Post added at 12:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:20 AM ----------

i tried it with iPhone 5 it's not compatible.. i don't know what they did to this phone in the pictures to work with the watch .. but like they say we will see soon when the android app comes out.

nice price 180$, i bought mine 15 days ago at 350$ ..
[General Accessories] Al_Cupon:
there an iphone app which u need to download from the app store to get it sync
[General Accessories] vartanm:
i know :) thx

but the phone must pair first with the watch.. there is the problem.
[General Accessories] klutch:
any updated yet for the app or some bluetooth sync? i am going around crazy trying to find some info all i see is iphone here n there :(
[General Accessories] tiss93:
Hi guys. I've just bought this watch. Can someone send me the japanese app? I'll try to get the sources and do something to improve the situation. My email is tiss93@mail.ru

By the way, does Xperia V have Bluetooth 4? I hope so...
[General Accessories] vartanm:

[General Accessories] tiss93:
well.. I've seen nothing related to connection to the watch in the apk :(

but I'm tired, tomorrow i'll go deeper :)
[General Accessories] vartanm:
i know

they say if the phone is paired with the watch then the software shows the settings in a tab..

but until now i couldn't pair a phone to this watch :(

thank u for trying.. i hope u can find something ..
[General Accessories] mtdang:
Hopefully we can have something figured out soon.

i hope u'll find time to decode the app and find something..

soon i'm getting my note 2 so it has BT v4 i will test things a lot..

have a nice weekend everyone :)
[General Accessories] vartanm:
Today i tested the watch on Samsung tab 10 inch N8000

it didn't work as usual, the tablet didn't see the watch at all.

even after installing the g-shock application tablet version or phone version, didn't help the phone to have additional Bluetooth profiles working ..

so in my opinion we have no hope at all :((

[General Accessories] vartanm:
why u don't read the thread then you will understand why ..
[General Accessories] klutch:
i did read it i was googling stuff around bout wat u told me on the email and here and u have a point there stuff missing
[General Accessories] keeism:
Got your email . thank you very much , but apparently HTC butterfly is not working with the watch.

Do you have the Japanese app instead of the English one? cos when I install, it is in English not Japanese.

I assume we need the Japanese one work instead of the English version.

Or does it it auto detect the language and install it in English instead of Japanese?

Anyway thanks for sending the file :D
[General Accessories] vartanm:
this is downloaded from the japanese market

it's description was in japanese too

so when you install it it's changing language

the problem is with the bt profiles..
[General Accessories] klutch:
any signs of that BT profiles bro?
[General Accessories] vartanm:
only 2 phones have them

one is casio phones

second is LG phone but only made for japan..

i guess we have to wait a few years .. i may sell my watch soon :(
[General Accessories] klutch:
LG? but i have my LG nexus 4 should of had that i mean maybe region wise if its only japan they lucky then:(
[General Accessories] vartanm:
sorry it wasn't LG.. I made a mistake

it's Fujitsu's Arrows Z ISW13F

you can check it at http://www.theverge.com/2012/5/15/3021447/fujitsu-arrows-z-isw13f-au-hands-on
[General Accessories] vartanm:
you can see at the Metawatch descriptions the profile needed to work on a phone..

http://shop.metawatch.com/pages/specs

I was thinking if we can find the Rom image of Casio and Fujitsu and extract the BT profiles and put them on our phone..

we need someone who can do that since I don't know how to do that :)

If you know someone please ask them to help

thanks
[General Accessories] Glarie:
I got the Casio g-shock gb-6900-1jf. If you got the Japanese G-SHOCK apps for Android, please send it to me via my e-mail glarie@gmail.com.

Thanks a lot.
[General Accessories] vartanm:
done..

check ur email

what phone u have ??
[General Accessories] Glarie:
Dear Vartan M,

I installed the jp.co.casio.gshock.apk into my Samsung Note 2 which you sent to me. I open the apps but no icon or link on the Samsung Note 2 to connect with the casio bluetooth watch (GB-9600). Please tell me how to connect the watch. Thanks.
[General Accessories] sirius_dark:
EXCELLENT THINKING. That is exactly what i thought when i got the watch in December! However, i did search XDA and the internet around but did not find the ROM images..possibly because all these phones are Japanese only market

I think the next thing we can do is go to the support websites of these phones and try to get the image from there(with some crazy Japanese translating done thanks to Google Chrome).

Being a Bluetooth Engineer, i fullly know this BT 4.0 LE Spec in and out. Worked with LE Radios all day long. Sigh gotta love Wireless! ;) This is a pain because of each manufacturer trying to deviate a little from the rest as the stack has been opened!

The other thing one can do is just follow the spec implementation on the bluetooth developer website and write their own apps. Wish someone with a CS / Software Engineering sees this. They have a huge untapped market here before the dumb f*cks at casio and samsung realise what they are missing out on!
[General Accessories] vartanm:
i answered this many times please read all the posts !:(

---------- Post added at 01:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:22 AM ----------

hehe yeah .. thanks :good:

i will do that in a few days when i have more time :)))
[General Accessories] KAGE-MUSHA:
I have the note 2 & the gb6900-aa

can u please send me the app
[General Accessories] vartanm:
me too..

it doesn't work yet.
[General Accessories] KAGE-MUSHA:
I even tried using it on my wife's iphone 5 & the phone was able to discover the watch but the pairing failed, afterwards it can't even discover the watch, I don't know why :eek:.
[General Accessories] love7672:
Wo. Hope it works on mine! :victory:
[General Accessories] vartanm:
i tried on iphone 5 too and note 2

several note 2, and note 10 inch..

so nothing works, first without the casio software then with software .. as long as the software doesn't have the profiles it's no use trying them.

the iphone's software is available too but in japanese market.. if someone can try it it will be great.

I guess we have to wait a few years or sell our watches :(
[General Accessories] vartanm:
check this link and read the description

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.co.casio.gshock
[General Accessories] KAGE-MUSHA:
I tried it using the software, still nothing happend.
[General Accessories] vartanm:
yeah i know..

if your read the descriptions you don't even need to try.
[General Accessories] klutch:
damn this is pain in the @$$ LOL figure us out to make it work n my question is how can we get te casio rom and make it to work on our phones? unless it has to be a Zip file so we can flash it

Update : this is kinda weard? look at the picture it says intall but wont come out on my phone 0_o
[General Accessories] KAGE-MUSHA:
This app is doing nothing but change the home screen wallpaper
[General Accessories] klutch:
yea i noticed i mean it dosent make no sence why put that app up :confused:
[General Accessories] vartanm:
it does make sense to a Japanese Casio phone

not for yours or mine ..
[General Accessories] KAGE-MUSHA:
Any news?:confused::confused::confused::confused:
[General Accessories] vartanm:
If you can give from your time

ask a developer to extract the BT profiles from casio phones and make it flash-able or installable to our phones..

U will help us and urself a lot :) at least we'll enjoy our watch
[General Accessories] sirius_dark:
The app will only show additional watch link features only if it is installed on the NTT Docomo Medias phone models which have all the BT 4.0 profiles and LE Radios in them.

This info is also mentioned in the note of the app description in Google Play.

---------- Post added at 04:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:52 PM ----------

Let me correct a bit here. The watch link will only work for Japanese NTT Docomo Medias phones.
[General Accessories] vartanm:
Yup correct

But if we have the Bt profiles on our note 2 or any other bt 4.0 phone.. it should work fine..
[General Accessories] ircardani:
I would like to try the apk in my phone. I am using xperia SX. Please send it to ircardani@gmail.com

I'd appreciate it.

Thank you
[General Accessories] jameski182:
I really love G-Shock the style and the quality
[General Accessories] vartanm:
do u know what profiles ur bluetooth has in ur phone ?

if yes, write so that i send you the apk.
[General Accessories] klutch:
damn no luck yet ? hoping some one find a way still love this watch but dying to put this to work so bad lol
[General Accessories] Mastrox:
I've bought the watch in Japan, i've done the pairing with my Xperia Z and now I've got the watch on my bluetooth devices, but without the application, it can't works... I've found the g-shock.apk but as you said it only change the wallpaper and add a widget...

I'll cross my fingers for Android 4.3.3 to solve the problem, but I think that we have to wait, Google, our Productor (Sony), our Brand (Vodafone - ATT etc) and Casio for the application. Maybe in 2020... :eek:
[General Accessories] klutch:
wait how u got the watch pair out with the other devices then?:confused:
[General Accessories] ernmitanyo:
I have checked this watch in a Casio Store, it seems the Bluetooth works for Iphone 4S & Iphone 5 only
[General Accessories] klutch:
yea those phone works i tried it out with a family member but still not working on android tho and i saw a video on youtube they had with a working androind
[General Accessories] Mastrox:
Well, i've paired them with bluetooth service on my Xperia...

After that the BT on my watch, switch off. I think is waiting for the application to connect.

The android phones that you see working on youtube are a few Japanese Phones, like NEC Media, Casio or Sharp Acquos phones that (i believe) have the application pre-installed.

It would be awsome to have that apk and try it... I've searched for it but I found only the Japanese App Store Application that is not going to do anything with the watch.

Edit: OMG how can I reduce the Image? I'm sorry.
[General Accessories] klutch:
its cool dont mind how big the picture is we worried he how to link it to the phone lol but yea i have a nexus 4 and wont do anything some of us here have the watch but wont work on some phones
[General Accessories] vartanm:
i doubt that it paired on ur phone

it needs a lot of bt profiles that ur phone doesnt have !!!!

and the japanese apk does work perfectly on a phone that has the needed profiles.

and i tried with iphone 5 it doesnt work.

you should upload a video of the watch and phone i guess the pics are fake..
[General Accessories] Mastrox:
If I need help to get the watch work, why I should make a fake image?

I'll make you a video, you could tell me how I can use the Japanese apk? I can't read Japanese, I've tried all the button on the application but all I found was wallpaper and twitters client...
[General Accessories] Mastrox:
http://youtu.be/qHP6d08cbdA
[General Accessories] klutch:
woha! what kind of phone are you using and it is a custum ROM ? if so whats the name of it cuz its kinda crazy u link it with the watch:confused:, and thats a good proof right there
[General Accessories] Mastrox:
Xperia Z with stock ROM. Unrooted.
[General Accessories] klutch:
thats crazy cuz that phone is similar to this one from japan http://www.ebay.com/itm/DOCOMO-NEC-...1209723648?pt=Cell_Phones&hash=item3cd1501300
[General Accessories] Mastrox:
Media is the brand NEC I suppose, but the Phone is full Italian, also the stock ROM, is branded
[General Accessories] klutch:
gotcha, how long u have this phone tho i mean its rare the these phone in the US wont link to a watch like that i have a Nexus 4 which is the newest and wont link...
[General Accessories] Mastrox:
One month... But is useless to get link and nothing more!
[General Accessories] vartanm:
hi

i just watched the video

i still don't think it can pair because like i said the BT profiles are missing in ur phone and it's not logic ..

anyway let's say it's true

send me ur e-mail address so that i send you the Japanese apk in English

it should make ur phone work perfectly with the watch (all options)

without the software you can still use the watch it will notify you when u forget ur phone behind.

waiting ur e-mail address.
[General Accessories] Mastrox:
Thank you i have sent my address in P.M.

Really I can set both to work for prossimity without the app? How can make it? After linking the phone, BT on watch switch off, so I don't know how to do use the prossimity function works...

As I said in P.M if I can share my BT profiles with you for, I will be happy to do that, I just tell me how I can do or link me a guide...
[General Accessories] klutch:
if this works then we have to find the setup to do this in some of our phones we have to find a way for us owners of GB6900 casio watch
[General Accessories] Mastrox:
For sure! I really hope that this app works...

I'm searching the new apk (1.3.5), because I can't download the app from Google Play, but I can't find it at the moment...
[General Accessories] vartanm:
hm, first if the watch is switching off it means it's not connected.. showing paired but can't keep the connection cause it's not a compatible phone, because it doesn't have the needed profiles.

anyway i will send you the apk in a few minutes..

just to let you know that it won't work.

and in case you want it to work.. please go to casio phones section and ask a developer to make an apk or a zip of the profiles in that phone so that we can push it into our phones, that is the only way this watch can work.. or we have to wait till 2020 and maybe then it will work..:(

---------- Post added at 10:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:12 PM ----------

I just installed the latest version to my note 2

just for testing v.1.3.5

nothing.. it doesn't add any missing profiles or stuff to my phone. so it didn't work.

you can check it at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.co.casio.gshock

see the pictures, you will see it can control the watch if linked correctly before using this application.
[General Accessories] klutch:
umm this is crazy at first when i had my nexus didnt want to download it till now i see this

[General Accessories] klutch:
well i guess in the US might start working it anytime soon maybe
