The app that has been updated is CASIO WATCH+, not the official G-SHOCK+ app.

If you read some posts above you will see that Official Casio support team recommend us to contact with our local casio support center.

The only good news I have is that one use in BlueWatcher's testing group solved it's problems with Android 5.1 update.

Please, is there anybody there who where unable to connect until 5.1 update? Does it work with 5.1? (I think this test can only be done by Nexus users as they received the 5.1 update directly from google).
[Other SmartWatches] htperry:
Just got off the phone with Casio.

They have fixed the Bluetooth connection issue by installing a different BT module in the newly manufactured watches. You can return your watch to Casio at your expense for the new "C" module and they will pay shipping back. They said it would take about 10 days.

To identify new watches with the updated module, they said there is a very light laser engraving (like a watermark) above the model # or serial number # (can't remember which) that if the 7th digit is a "C", you have the new BT module that corrects the connection issues.

I hope this news is not a duplication of another post and helps.

Contact info for casio phone number and address?

While we are waiting for new release....

..... regarding Tasker maybe I will help someone, give idea. This is not tested, my watch is on the way.

Thoretically , to reject call:

Create first profile "Watch hangup": STATE, Media button, NEXT , tick GRAB,STOP EVENT , that one triggers task PHONE, END CALL (hmm I hope end call will end ringning, not just conversation)

- this one should wait for media buttons pressed, I hope it will catch action from watch you will send.

Create second profile: "Call incoming", type STATE, CALL, incoming -> new task, select Tasker type, enable profile "Watch hangup"

EXIT TASK Disable profile "Watch hangup"

So only when phone is ringing first profile will be active....

So when phone rings, you get on watch notification, you click lower left button to stop notification, lower left to go to Command mode, and let say lower right (you bind lower right to "next song" in bluewatcher) , and with tasker magic, he should pick that NEXT song media button, and he should trigger phone hangup.

Anyone can try this? If this does not work, there could be slight modification to use media volume to hangup, maybe this will work better if taker cannot catch media button NEXT , or play if you put that instead.

Hope I hleped someone. regards

edit: I tried it and it works...

My watch came today from the site.

Services listed in the watch plate electronics.

Watch now connected to my NOTE 4 with Lollipop.

Unfortunately, there is a problem with the application Bluewatcher.

The application works fine, but the first disconnection. After disconnecting and re-conjunction, the phone freezes

Hello!

I have contacted with Casio Support Center too and they will repair my GBA-400 and my GB-X6900B as I updated my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 to Android 5.0. Now it's not working.

Once I have my watches back I will be able to re-test BlueWatcher with Android 5.0 and solve all derived problems.

Thanks and hope you understand I can't do anything when the problem comes from the watch hardware :angel::angel::angel:

See you!
[Other SmartWatches] jackgl:
The Polish site repair lasted three weeks.

After testing, I see that solved the problem of equipment

I'm looking to repair your watch, because the original casio software is not very functional.

Is it works on Sony Xperia Z?
[Other SmartWatches] Godavos:
Please ,

FInd my phone is not working right. Everything else is . I got newest version, and 5600b watch.

If screen is turned off this does not work.

If I start application then it works, but not with turned off screen.

edit: Hmm all of the sudden I lost phone control option. g-shock original app also cannot play/stop/next . I rebooted 3x times mobile and cannot get phone control to work, like something is holding something , or something needs to be cleaned, but what ?

I reflashed ROM and now it is back again, I guess some application update did the damage... hmm strange but I not isntalled nothing new....

edit2: With tasker I manager to minimize my bluetooth connection problems. I got car profile, when I connect to my Car bluetooth, in my case bluewatcher disconnects, so I end bluewatcher, wait 2 seconds ,starts g-shock app and it connects to my watch so I didnt lose anything much let say. And I got exit task (when i disconnect from my car bluetooth) that kills g-shock app, stops bluetooth, start bluetooth, waits, starts bluewatcher and he connect to my watch.

regards
[Other SmartWatches] Godavos:
It would be great in next release when you receive your watch from service, and someone already mentioned that. That for phone find you leave current notification alert, and add other possbility to create notification with some name like "ALERT" , Then we can intercept that with tasker and do anything we want with it and viola we gained extra key. Or just mount it to some other bluetooth media key and we can also intercept it..

Connection Ureliable

I have stb 1000 and a jiayu S3 , pairing and connection seems working,

ERROR : watch not connected.

Sometimes seems that app is stuck, watch B symbol ON but no commands or notifications,

if i close app B symbol disappear on watch (meaning that app was connected but not interact with watch).

There is a debug enabled version of app ?

i have send mail to support@blue.... but no aswer.

In the past i had on my z1 compact the problem that the phone control service doesn't work with my GB-X6900B...

Now i updated to Android 5.0 the strange thing is that i'm not able to pair the watch completely through the Bluetoothsettings... The only way for me was to delete all pairings again and pair it through gshock+, after it's paired i closed gshock+ and connected the watch with bluewatcher and tadaaa everything works fine: all services connect reconnect

I'm so glad that i now can use this awesome app with all it's services

Nexus 6 5.1

FYI Nexus 6 running 5.1 with GBX6900b, so far so good!

I have to say that this is exactly what I was looking for. My only knock on the watch was the notification delay and not even the selection.

I can help with graphics/icons/screenshots and mockups if you ever want the help.

Is there any way to change the duration of the watch notification? All I need is a beep and a shake :)

I'm 10 minutes in but it is awesome!
[Other SmartWatches] Godavos:
Notification length is controlled on watch not on application, bluewatcher just sends notification and in your watch settings you control 2,5,10 sec and type of alert (sound, vibration).

On Casio support page for watch find manual for application and you will see how to set that.

For my watch:

To masterjc13...

I was babling regarindg Tasker support. Well what I wrote then is crap.

The only thing you need to do is to make action that some key on watch start some application and we chose what application. Or even better to start some shortcut.

We can create tasker application with some code using tasker app factory and name it whatever we want. When your app runs that application we made with app factory , tasker task triggers and voila we got tasker integration.

Or if you can start shortcut, even better, then we can start Tasker Task Shortcut , and select task. and dont need to use tasker app factory.

Please do this :)

I am back after 4 months, picked up my gba 400 and installed it again to my LG 4x HD CM 11 phone.

Music control, camera control it all works... good stuff.

But I never receive a whatsapp notification nore messenger nore message notification.

How would I get this to work?

thanks!

[Other SmartWatches] system02:
I just want to say:

I paid for the app even though I beta tested one of the earliest versions! People with knowledge and the will to work must be supported! :)

As I don't have a GB-400:

Did I understand it right, that you can use this watch for notifications, too with BlueWatcher? Stock function from Casio was only music control as far as I was informed.

Does anybody exactly know how to identify new versions of those watches?

[MENTION=2290302]masterjc13[/MENTION]:

As we all know, you did really great work with your software.

Would it be possible that you port BlueWatcher to the Blackberry 10 platform? I bought a Blackberry Passport and there's strong demand for Smartwatch options!

The only watch that works with Blackberry at the moment is the Pebble. I would be happy to pay again for BlueWatcher on BlackberryWorld just to have that great functionality on my Blackberry!
[Other SmartWatches] menno3000:
I won the GBA-400 and I wouldnt recommend it. It is just not made for it :( There is a timeout of 2 hours and than you would have to reconnect mannualy to your phone. This for me always involves unpairing and pairing and even than good connection is not guaranteed. Moreover it does not have a proper light for dark situations. It uses a led that is so bright that you get blinded by it but you wont be able to see anything on the screen. I am thinking of buying the SBT-1000 which is very cheap.!
[Other SmartWatches] Godavos:
I payed for this, but switched back to original G-shock app. It just works better regarding reconnections (5600b and Coolpad F1 with AOSP rom) , it always reconnects, while Bluewatcher sometimes do not reconnects and I must turn off bluetooth and bluewatcher and restart both of them and that is very annoying to me. That outweights the custom notifications and Whatsup for me which I partialys solved with tasker sending mail when whatsup comes and g-shock checking mail notifications. ... Please try to resolve reconnection problems if you can.

Hello all,

Long time since my last post :( I'm very busy at work. New resposabilities that gives me many sleepless nights. So I'm so sorry but I don't have much time for BlueWatcher.

On the other hand, after 3 or 4 weeks, my watches are back again from Casio Support Center. Now they can connect to my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 with Android Lollipop (5.0) but I could reproduce reconnection issue. I don't know if it's a common error on your phones/watches but I will try to solve the reconnection issue. It seems BlueWatcher forgets reconnection information (I don't know if new Casio bluetooth modules changes its address dinamically).

[MENTION=1589592]odon[/MENTION]mandr, I can't control which device and android version is allowed to install BlueWatcher. I can only control phone model. Remember you can download BlueWatcher from www.bluewatcher.es/download.php and buy it directly from you PC if you have another supported device. Buy directly from Google Play.

Remember GBA-400 model do not reconnect automatically by design. It disconnects automatically after some hours. Even if it disconnects, you will have to reconnect manually.

See you!
[Other SmartWatches] exst1:
My local Casio Support Center said that there is no firmware update for my GB-5600B watch (according to some Casio service site).

Does anybody knows something about GB-5600B bluetooth module fix/upgrade and how I can connect it to my Note 3 with Lollipop 5.0?

Thanks

Hello

my GB-5600B is back from assistance casio few days ago :D. With the app g-Shoch + and my Note4 (lollipop) it works well, except for some disconnection while.

With app BlueWatcher I had some problems with or connection, and with the failure to notify some app.

However I am happy that my watch functions again after changing phone ...
[Other SmartWatches] terencelhk77:
module update

Casio. Singapore also told me the same thing that they are not aware of having to update the watches, they told me I need to update my phone instead, so I showed them the notification stated on the Casio Bluetooth site, in this end they agree to take in my all my bt watches and contact Casio Japan to confirm on the upgrade of the watches. Few days later they called me and told me they will update the watches, including the Kevin Lyons which is Japan exclusive model. So i suggest you contact your local Casio again add they might be ill informed.

Forgive me I need help I bought bluewatcher from play store but I can not make it work with my galaxy s3 rom stock and 4.3 g - shock gb 6900B Please help me :D
[Other SmartWatches] terencelhk77:
Capnet, does your watch work with the official G-shock+ app in your S3? I strongly recommend you send your watch for the module update, I've tested my updated 5600b to work with S6 on android 5, and S6 is not officially endorsed by Casio to work with their BT G. I would think an updated module should work with most android 4 samsung phone with Gshock+,if not bluewatcher.
[Other SmartWatches] capnet:
The problem is another application g - shock works well bluewatcher the problem is that the first connection is working but after restarting the phone connects but can not accommodate all options only control
[Other SmartWatches] csx3:
I've the same problem.

The manual pairing doesn't work since android update, so i deleted all the pairinginformations and used the g-shock+ app to pair and closed g-shock+, after it everything worked well also connect reconnect and phonecontrol.

I don't know why, but now only the gshock+ app works and bluewatcher can't connect. I deleted the pairinginformations and I'm not able to complete the pair with the watch in the Bluetoothsettings, in the settings the watch is showen as paired but on the watch i only see the connection procedure and it changes from the showen pairingslot to showen time but then the watch disconnect.

Now if i try to connect through bluewatcher it fails.

i see on the watch the connection procedure and the pairing slot (in the past where the pairing worked i always saw the time)

I'm realy confused.
[Other SmartWatches] terencelhk77:
I guess bluewatcher is not ready for 5.0 yet as masterjc has mentioned he is busy. Well as long as gshock + works with your android 5.0 then just use it first until bluewatcher is updated. I haven't update my S4 to 5.0 because of this.
[Other SmartWatches] csx3:
Now i just connected bluewatcher after a restard with the pairinginformations of gshock+ and everything works great again.... Realy funny

Galaxy Note II, Android 4.3

Hi there. I'm happy new owner of STB-1000. I decided to buy it after I found this app you have created and have already bought it. Really hope it will work for me and you will continue to develop your product. But for the moment I have problem pairing my STB with my phone. It is Galaxy Note 2 (GT-N7100) with Android 4.3 on board. When I turn on BT on both devices I can't find watches on smartphone, while I can find other phones with BT on. I have deleted all pairs in watch (after 6 times pressing "mode" button there only "STB-1000" is written). On he smartphone there are no pairs too. So what could be the reason that devices can't see each other? Could you provide me with useful links or give any suggestions on how to solve my problem. Thanks in advance.

STB 1000

Hi,

Facing the same issues while losing connection between watch (STB1000) and phone (Galaxy N7100, 4.4.2). Sometimes it works immediatly sometimes , it takes 1 hour to get both connected (trying everything possible)

It is not a Bt issue as BLuetooth LE can connect and reconnect to it. It seems that the Bluwatcher app is not able to found the watch when it is disconnected / reconnected.
[Other SmartWatches] mathew7:
I used it with a Xperia Z1 Compact and Nexus 4 and my best method of having successful reconnections was: after the initial non-BW pairing (at least the watch has to be paired when starting this), I would:

1. start BW with watch BT off

2. turn phone BT off then on while BW is running

3.start watch BT.

4. manually search and select the watch in BW (as I recall, BW will find the watch eventually, but it takes so long that the watch times-out before completing the connection)

This handshake would connect without phone controls, but the reconnection works. My conclusion is the handshake for phone controls has some issues.

If you start BW with phone BT off, it will ask to start it for you, and that seemed to not work.

STB 1000

Hi,

Thanks for the iinfo.

I found out a similar way and now I can easily reconnect the watch. (also I 'm trying to keep my phone in range..)

But this is a bit too complicated. Maybe developpers can found out what's going on and solve this issue in a future version

Regards
[Other SmartWatches] capnet:
can you explain your method I would be grateful

STB 1000

If my watch disconnect and don't automaticaly reconnect with watch Bt going off :

- Exit BW. Do not turn off phone Bt.

- Wait 1 min

- Start Watch Bt and immediatly start BW. Let them do their job on their own. It should reconnect.

If that fail , exit BW.

Start Bluetooth LE Scanner (find it on google play )

Start Watch Bt and connect Bt LE scanner (it should work in a second. the watch only shows the Bt symbol)

Disconnect Bt LE sanner (this turns off watch Bt)

Turn on watch Bt and start BW. They should connect.

Hope this helps

P.S. : I think there's no exact reconnection procedure, it's just a matter of luck sometimes ;)

Help me get into a final decision.

I was considering buying a GBX6900b, but I had so many second thoughts regarding the bluetooth connectivity and the compatibility with my smartphone. However, I saw your post and It kinda gave me hopes. I own a Moto X 2014 running Android 5.1 and basically it is almost the identical as your Nexus 6 in regards of bluetooth features and firmware. Based on your experience, do you recommend me get the G-Shock GBX6900b?
[Other SmartWatches] didifart:
disconnection thoughts

Hi,

Getting less issues with my STB 1000 and Glxy Note2.

But I found out some info that may be usefull :

Do not try to reconnect if you have other Bt enabled devices in range

Same if you have a bad phone reception (your phone will power up it's gsm) or your phone doing data transmission

My watch gets randomly disconnected when I take the metro (tube) or in computer / tv shops.

hope this helps.

Resently bought STB-1000 for note II

Hello, masterjc13. Tnx for your work. Very appreciate btw.

Here my couple problems. At first, I cannot change key music control binding, at all. I reassign keys, assign show battery level - nothing change. All keys stay as deafult bindings. Second problems is app showing as connected but STB-1000 didnt say so. Watch trying connect and some times later just going to disconnect. BlueWatcher still show connected status as green.

I tried send masterjc13 a private message, a letter with some usefull info about bluetooth module in STB-1000 named as ML7105 lapis. On there site lapis-semi you can find datasheet-file db, ML7105 User's Manual and even link to thier android BLE TOOL app in playstore. You didnt answer to me, but I really hope this info help you somehow. Cause now app needed some work.

I cannot post any link now, so you can see BLE module ML7105 in 11 sec. in video called: CASIO Bluetooth SPORTS GEAR STB-1000 Promotion Movie. I think this module in all casio bluetooth watches

My watch is fixed now (GB-5600B), but what I've done after the local services told me that they don't know anything about that problem.

I checked whether the service I contacted is one of the OFFICIAL services: world.casio.com/support/ (Product Repair / Parts -> Watches)

Then I wrote an email to the Casio Support center in Europe (because I'm there :)) secure.casio-europe.com/euro/support/contact/

and in the email I described the whole problem and that the local Casio services doesn't know about that issue with Android > 5.0.

After 2 weeks without response I wrote the same email again. At the end I wrote that this is the second email to them :)

On the next day I got a response that they will contact my local service and they did it.

Then the local service contact and told me that some part will be delivered to them, for my watch, and after that they will contact me again to replace it, maybe the bluetooth module, I don't know. Aaaaand after a month and a week in the local service, my watch is now successfully connected to my Note 3 with Android 5.0.

Hope this info will help you.

Hello,

I'm here but sometimes it seems I desapeared! :( As I said, I'm very busy in my job so I have less time for BlueWatcher.

I'm planning to release BlueWatcher 1.1.3 in August as I'm on my holidays and I have a little time...

1) I reproduced the problem that freezes the phone after connection is broken! I think it only occurs in Android Lollipop and using new Bluetooth modules.

2) I'm going to resolve some bugs that make the app crash in order to be more stable.

3) I can't promise connection improvements as I explained before it's not an easy job as I don't know the interface and protocol for every watch model so the only way I can do it better is "PROGRAM-TEST-PROGRAM-TEST" and that's a hard job :silly:

See you
