Thank you both for your replies.

Guessing its just a case of waiting for an App to come out to view the HR on the watch now.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] K_Dua:
what about ANT+ protocol?

Theoretically, and off course depending on your headphone set, and HR strap .. you could run the music app via the Bluetooth protocol, to your headphones, and leave the HR monitor running over the ANT+ protocol..

That way you'd leave music playback to the BE alone.

PS : I am also awaiting for that standalone HR function confirmation. That will determine my acquisition of the device. Any news on that front ?

Has anyone tried any ANT+ HR chest-strap..or optic sensor strap?
[Sony Smartwatch 3] XorZone:
Afair smart watch 3 does not have ant+ onboard.

I have a Bluetooth HRM Polar iWL (Wearlink+) but I cannot connect it with the watch. I can pair with the 0000 PIN but it says connecting and then disconnected. It does shows up in the Bluetooth unpair list so it seems to be paired..

Does anyone know if this is normal at the moment?

Or only Bluetooth headsets are supported yet in wear?

[Sony Smartwatch 3] bosse11:
Wrong! Polar H7 does pair and works perfectly.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] lm_1970:
I will rephrase it. My Polar H7 pairs but inmediately disconnects from my Smartwatch 3. What app are you using in the watch to see the heart rate? How are you pairing both devices?

Thanks.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] bosse11:
It's kind of strange, it stops at "Connecting..." but is really connected. Look at "Unpair devices", if your H7 band shows up there, you are connected. I have not tried pairing two devices at the same time, sorry...

Try "Sports Gear Tracker", not a great app but it will show your heart rate anyway...
[Sony Smartwatch 3] djgodlike:
My Polar iWL shows up at the "unpair menu" but does not connect to the "Heart Rate - Sport Gear + Wear" app.

I think because my Polar Wearlink+ HRM does not use Bluetooth 4.0 (Smart) ;)

Have to buy a Polar H7 instead... Or does anyone recommend a better one?
[Sony Smartwatch 3] galt:
Wow, that's interesting! Does the HR data seem like it's being recorded accurately and consistently? Can you please provide some screen shots of this?
[Sony Smartwatch 3] gs05:
HRM Works SW3!

I have a MIO Link Bluethooth 4th HRM Wrist strap. If I install heart rate - sport gear + wear (which has a wear app), get the phone app to recognize the strap, start a workout on phone, disconect it, run the wear app, it detects my Mio link and displays the heartbeat value on the SW3. I then even killed the bluetooth on my phone to kill the wear link and the HR still increased. Its a little finicky, but this is very encouraging! screenshot attached.

It starts at 70, but then varys a little...not as accurate as the phone app as it seems to move around more. However it does increase when i do jumping jacks.

Its a start, not really working, but at least wear can see BT HR monitors in some capacity
[Sony Smartwatch 3] davidjac:
H7 Connection

As has been mentioned the Polar H7 says "connecting" but does'nt say connected. It does appear in setting within unpair.

Testing with Sport Gear tracker does provide results though they are vastly out. I have no idea if it is actually reading the H7 and just inaccurately translating the reading or indeed if its just spouting other data.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] Basch88:
Same here with the H6 :(
[Sony Smartwatch 3] gs05:
I wondered the same thing. But if I start doing jumping jacks it increases, which it never does otherwise, so something must be happening. Whether the reading is BS, is another story
[Sony Smartwatch 3] sirrelevant:
If I understand, you paired your mio to the phone, but not the watch? If that's the case, have you tried pairing it to the watch?
[Sony Smartwatch 3] gs05:
Correct...but direct pairing to the watch doesnt work. sees it, but wont register it and connect
[Sony Smartwatch 3] djgodlike:
Oke then...

Does the Polar h7 do connect directly to the watch? And are you able to capture the heart rate with an app on the watch, at the moment?

[Sony Smartwatch 3] bosse11:
Seems accurate to me: Garmin 610 vs Sony SW3 + Polar H7.

View attachment 3051041

I've tried jumping around too... Same result, it differs like 1 beat at max.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] sirrelevant:
What's feeding the 610? Are you wearing 2 chest straps?
[Sony Smartwatch 3] bosse11:
Yes, two straps at the same time. Fyi, garmin hrm3-ss ant+ chest strap.

Good news from Ghostracer.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] AstroDigital:
Ghostracer, looked on Google Play it is a Sony Smartwatch 2 app?

Does it exist for Android Wear, Sony Smartwatch 3?

What gets me the picture clearly shows a Smartwatch 3.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] djgodlike:
The beta version supports tweaks for wear and hrm support.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] imnoob55:
Hi all, any idea of any other apps like runkeeper that work standalone with it also support bluetooth HRM directly to the watch (for example, running with no phone but runkeeper + smartwatch 3 paired /w Polar 7?)
[Sony Smartwatch 3] gs05:
Nope...just ghostracer and ifit outdoor. Just use ghostracer and then use tapirik to move it from strava to runkeeper automatically
[Sony Smartwatch 3] imnoob55:
Great! Thanks for the reply, sounds good! I tried that last night w/o the watch and phone app only and it works good! (moves from strava to runkeeper to myfitnesspal with no issues at all).

Has anyone used 60beats HRM with this directly connected to the SW3?
[Sony Smartwatch 3] davidjac:
Is anyone really getting the Polar H7 to work with the sw3. I've tried SGT but results are vastly inaccurate. Any advice as to how to resolve this much appreciated.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] alunx:
does anyone try to pairing Scosche Rhythm+ HRM bluetooth with SW3 ???
[Sony Smartwatch 3] imnoob55:
For anyone wondering about 60beats bluetooth HRM, it works good! Can have this + my bluetooth earphones connected and active at the same time. No complaints!
[Sony Smartwatch 3] vssnake:

[Sony Smartwatch 3] dadogmeat:
Curious as I do need to buy new strap to replace my old Polar iWL: So you can go jogging with "Mio 56P-GRY"+SW3 only and not needing accompany phone? Do you use BT headphones also same time connected to SW3?
[Sony Smartwatch 3] djgodlike:
The watch works indeed with the Mio Link without a phone! Next week I do receive the "Beats Powerbeats 2 BT Wireless" and will do some testing. Suppose to work... Fingers crossed [emoji6]
[Sony Smartwatch 3] djgodlike:
Confirm it works with "Mio Link" HRM and music "Beats Powerbeats 2 Wireless" headset at the same time without phone connected with "Ghostracer" and "Sony Walkman"! [emoji2]
[Sony Smartwatch 3] dadogmeat:
Bummer, I can not pair MioLink with SW3 - tries but do not pair. :(
[Sony Smartwatch 3] djgodlike:
No need for pairing! Switch the MioLink on and just try Ghostracer Beta on your swr50 on the same arm..
[Sony Smartwatch 3] dadogmeat:
Thank you for your help! That indeed pairs without normal pairing, did the setup from phone-app first. :)

Can some please help with this issue,

I have Polar H7 with Sony smartwatch 3

Can i work with it standalone with H7 & Jabra sport bluetooh with Runkeeper or Endomodo and see my Heart rate on my watch ?

What should i do to make it work ?

I tried to use it with Endomodo

started the app from the watch

Location is on

Tried to pair the H7 ( i see disconnected)

unpair H7

Still no Heart Rate on screen

*With phone (when H7 connected to phone) works, i can see heart rate via the watch.

Thanks in advance for your support
[Sony Smartwatch 3] thunder141:
Heart rate standalone with watch there is no app til now. Runkeeper can use gps, but heart rate device must be connected to phone.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] Sievers:
Actually it doesn't need to be connected to the phone. Only app out there so far that can connect to an external HRM is GhostRacer which will use the Sony Smartwatch's GPS, and has an experimental connect to BlueTooth HRM option. I've tested this and it does work, I've gone on a few runs with it. There is even an option to sync the data over to either Strava or Runkeeper.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] FUSIONdev:
Any news about this ?

I 've a Polar H7 and I'm waiting for my SW3 shipping from amazon.... I use the H7 on gym, so I don't need GPS, but I need an app to record the workout.

Runtastic? Endomondo? Is there a stand alone fitness app for sony sw3 with hrm support?
[Sony Smartwatch 3] pbruck:
It works!

At the Moment, the only App which supports the Stand alone HR recording and Pairing with an BT Smart Belt is "Ghostracer"

https://plus.google.com/communities/108600094791246159447

I have paired (via Ghostracer App) an Alatech Smartrunner Chest Strap:

www.conrad.com/ce/en/product/556021/Alatech-Smartrunner-Bluetooth-Smart-Chest-Strap

After enabling in Smartphone App the Heart Rate Monitor and in the Smartwatch App the "Standalone Mode", it reords the Heart Rate via Chest strap without Connection to Phone.

After reconnect to Phone, it syncs Training Data with the Phone App.

Tested and confirmed that it works.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] FUSIONdev:
It looks like that Sport Gear Tracker supports the HRM... I have a Polar H7 belt

I tried and worked standalone... The sensor works as "shared", if you disable BT in the phone, SGT keeps recording...

The really annoying thing is that all these software are designed for runners. I'm not a runner, I use the polar sensor for Gym (so, treadmill running, cyclette, ellittic, and strenght workout)...:crying:
[Sony Smartwatch 3] rob_h:
I was just about to say that Sports Gear Tracker works as a stand alone HRM tracker.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] lordmorphous:
I've used Endomondo with my H7 and SW3 standalone.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] FUSIONdev:
Tell me more! :eek: How do you do that ??? :eek::eek::eek:
[Sony Smartwatch 3] lordmorphous:
Actually, quite the same as some of the others. You have to open Endomondo on the phone and connect the HR to it first. Then go into smartwatch settings and tell it to use the gps on the watch. I don't know if you can just start up endomondo on the watch then and it will work, or if you need to open up endomondo on the phone first. I always opened it on the phone. Then you can leave the phone behind and just hit start on the watch app when you're ready to start tracking. I also found that if the watch doesn't grab a gps signal right away, pull the back slightly away from your wrist for a second. It's grabbed the signal then immediately and held it even when i let the back against my wrist again.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] FUSIONdev:
If I enable GPS --> SMARTWATCH , it shows HR only on my phone.

Sony SW3 and Heart Rate monitor

Hello,

I have a SW3 and a load of different HR monitors that I borrowed from the QA testers at my work, when I could not get any to work, i contacted Sony.

The reply states that the SW3 does not support a HR monitor.

Dear Torquil,

Thank you for contacting the Sony Xperia support centre, regarding connecting a heart monitor to your Sony Smartwatch 3.

We do apologise but the Sony Smartwatch 3 is not compatible to connect to a heart rate monitor.

We are sorry for any inconvenience caused, if you do have any further queries please do not hesitate to get back in touch.

So i guess that some of you are just lucky enough to have your watch pick it up and work with it. :)
[Sony Smartwatch 3] HTCHD2NEW:
Have you tried pairing (any of) them first via an app on your phone? Rather than trying to pair them on the watch via Bluetooth ...
[Sony Smartwatch 3] TorquilH:
Hi, Yes i tried a few and they pair perfectly. Even the cheap cr*ppy ones work perfectly with my samsung s5.

I was hoping that with Ghostrunner, it might communicate with the watch when I put the app in 'pair' mode, but nothing seemed to get the heart beat showing on the phone.

Other people have done it though, so even though Sony say it is not possible, I trust the runner community more :)
[Sony Smartwatch 3] HTCHD2NEW:
Mine works fine with Ghostracer and either my Mio Fuse HR or my Zephyr HR
[Sony Smartwatch 3] Goneraz@droid:
I have tried using the Bluetooth hrm as a standalone with endomondoo and I can confirm that it does not work. I tried pairing it with the phone first.. it will pair and I can see my heart rate... but it will not be capture if u start ur workout with ur watch....if u start ur workout on the phone it will capture the hr data but as soon as u get out of range with the phone it will stop capturing the data for ur heartrate
[Sony Smartwatch 3] Black89:
I can't get endomondo to work standalone with my Zephry HXM. I can't get ghostracer to see my Zephry HXM under sensors. I just purchased a Polar H7 I'm hoping that works.

Power on polar H7 (connect it to the strap)

Open ghost racer on the phone.

Also customize screen to show heart rate

Lauch ghostracer on watch and power off bluetooth on phone ... heart rate should still work on phone now .. it takes over the bluetooth connection
[Sony Smartwatch 3] Black89:
Used the H7 all weekend, couldn't be happier. Next I will try my BT headphones with the polar H7 hrm.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] sirrelevant:
fyi you don't need to do that, it's mostly for testing. That's only for if you go running with your phone, and you want it to use the watch gps instead of the phone's. Even in standalone mode, if your phone is connected via bluetooth, wear will use the phone's gps. That setting overrides it.
[Sony Smartwatch 3] BrutalUK:
I use Ghostracer with my SW3 and Wahoo Tickr chest monitor and it works 100%. I also use Endomondo but I have to use the SW3 as a remote as the HR monitor only works with the phone. I've requested this as a feature with the Endomondo app. I know it can be done as it works perfectly with Ghostracer!

Looked around and not sure if this is even possible. Could I get a H/K M8, unlock it and use on T-Mobile's network to receive LTE? Thanks!
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
Is there a reason why you are looking at the Sprint version?

Its been argued whether the CDMA versions of the M8 are any different in hardware, but I haven't seen anything definitive either way. I'd err on the side of caution, assume the CDMA version is different hardware, and stay away from it. Buy any GSM version and you can convert it to work on T-Mobile (after s-off, unlocking the bootloader, etc.), no question there.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] G1_enthusiast:
no, Sprint version got some weird **** to it...
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quailallstar:
The only reason I'm looking for the Sprint version is because of the look. I like the dark back metal and gold upfront a lot. Sucks its an exclusive look only to Sprint. I read that you can flash the other non H/K models to have the same software so that is confirmed and all good.

Now I need to find someone who is using this Sprint model and can confirm it has the needed GSM radio(s) for TMO LTE.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xunholyx:
I'm pretty sure that Sprint models are CDMA only. You can't use their phones on GSM networks. I don't think what you are trying to do will work. I may be wrong here, but I really doubt I am.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
This is incorrect (that the Sprint variant does not work on GSM). Both the Verizon and Sprint variants support GSM and CDMA. Folk on here (including myself) tend to refer to them as "CDMA" for simplicity; but they are in fact also compatible with GSM, as well as HSPA, LTE.

http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_one_(m8)_cdma-6233.php

Now the question is whether the difference between the GSM and "CDMA" variants are purely in software, or there is an actual hardware difference. Its been argued both way, and I haven't seen any proof either way (although my gut tells me the latter is the case). And the question relevant to the OP is whether the T-Mobile LTE bands can be "added" to the Sprint device by software.

Hello :)

If I want to reinstall the motorola's KK rom (I have a cm11 with kikat bootloader), it's because my GPS don't work. I've read on french forums (I'm french ;) ) that it can be because of the fact that I didn't start the GPS when I was with the official KK. I want to solve this problem, but I don't now if I have to use RSD lite to direct reinstall the KK rom, cause I can't install the JB rom because of the JB bootloader (I think)

Thanks a lot :)

I wiped all while on dirty unicorn v8.2 (by the way thanks for pointing to the Kernel fix to get our wifi working) , i flashed your test cm11 with pa gapps if that makes any difference.

While I didnt test GPS extensively or while on the move? gps status definitely sees 21 sats, connected to 9 at one point and got a lock after turning location of and off, device only and then high accuracy mode.

I am not sure if it wont disconnect while on the move as I cant test it now. Just by my office window here. If i can i will take it for a spin later.

For the purpose of your fix, test cm11 sees gps, connects . Now if you needme to run any other test, or even better a patch if possible on Dirty unicorn I am game to get the gps working as it should.

Thanks a lot man:good:

Please reboot to bootloader and do:

The ril start will take longer after reboot as the modem NV storage will be reinitializing itself to the defaults read from fsg.

Then try the GPS again, it should start working.

[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hbenz2008:
any benefit or risk from doing this on dirty unicorn? sounds like a reset of the modem?
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kabaldan:
When you disable GPS while using stock 4.4.2 firmware, the GPS engine disabled flag is stored in NV memory.

While this flag indicates GPS disabled, the GPS engine (implemented in modem/BP) won't respond to any location requests.

As we haven't figured how to toggle this flag in kkbl moto_msm8960 CM11 yet, CM11 users coming from stock with disabled GPS don't get any response from GPS engine.

Erase of modemst1/modemst2 restores the default modem settings and clears the GPS engine disabled flag.

There's no risk involved (modemst1/modemst2 is also erased during any sbf flash or OTA update).

It's useful for any moto_msm8960 (kkbl) builds where the user disabled GPS while being on the 4.4.2 stock firmware before switching to custom ROM.
