problem of the battery

I also have the problem of the battery, you managed to solve it. hello and thanks :(
[Other SmartWatches] samir66:
If the battery has only 235 miliamps we cant expect to last to much, i wander why they say the battery has 350 miliamps..I guess there some g2 devices with bigger batteries that's why some last longer.I wait next week for a battery to arrive replace the old one in watch with one that has 350 mh and see how long will last.I will keep you updated..
[Other SmartWatches] clod22:
Hi, from where you order 350mA battery, please a link.

thank.

Bluetooth range

Hi all, can you confirm me how is your BT range ?

When i put the watch more than 30 cm from my iphone 6 (or android device) it lost the connection, I can't put my iphone in my pocket without lost connection .....
[Other SmartWatches] dersie:
At least 5m.
[Other SmartWatches] slapia:
Very long hangover in China after new Year :) I'm tired of waiting for new firmware.

BT distance bad. If I want speak over watch, then watch and phone in the pocket must be at the same side of the body :)
[Other SmartWatches] JRC:
This watch is very rotten, BT doesn't work correctly with iPhone 6, same problem with the notification. Very bad product directly go to trash !

Use a barcodescanner app on your phone and read the QR code on your smartwatch and download and install the app you are pointed to. I received this link (kctsv.com/update/2502/mediateksmartdevice.apk) doing so and now it works.
[Other SmartWatches] samir66:
You have to remove cover and solder two wires from the new battery,so for no luck to find one so small 2cm 2cm and flat 3 mm i guess, i tried one larger and didnt fit in :( i will keep try to find one.

---------- Post added at 07:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:38 AM ----------

It was from a local store in my town no website, i recived the battery yesturday but was to big to close the watch, so no luck so far.

---------- Post added at 07:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:43 AM ----------

Same problem here, after just a few cm away the watch disconnects, you see the antenna of bluetooth is under the watch so the metal from above is shelding it and the hand to i guess it's just a bad construction..useless watch afterall.

---------- Post added at 08:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:47 AM ----------

I tried a a few chargers by now to recharge the battery so i did notice this: if you charge the watch when it's shut down and you press the power button once after is full chargeed will continue to charge, at least the graphic of the battery keeps showing that is charging but the watch will not last longer. I tried a charger that shows when watch is charging one some charger the indicator stops after is full and on others keeps showing that is still charging.I even removed battery and charged in separate charger with the same results lasted just a few hours more..I lose a line from battery at every 3 hours and half just doing nothing cheking time only a few times.At this point i don't know if the battery is faulty or the charging in watch,maybe something in the firmware don't stop the cpu to run on 300mhz it should have only 28/25 mhz on standby, so a new firmware with more details on battery would be nice,a sysinfo something would be great to check watch.I guess i will solder a bigger battery cut a place in cover to fit one bigger and see if really the baterry is the problem.
[Other SmartWatches] toysnic:
Hi all!

Does anyone know how to not receive calls on my smartwatch?

I know its strange but I prefer use my phone to talk.

I only want to receive notifications and SMS (all normal function except communication).

I know how to transfer on the phone during a call on smartphone's screen, but I want this to be automatic.

If I unselect "call control" and "media control" in the phone's Bluetooth settings, I loose the Bluetooth connection.

Also, I want don't use "media", because I use Waze and I need the sound on the phone otherwise the sound goes on the watch.

thank you
[Other SmartWatches] dersie:
I think you can't.
[Other SmartWatches] toysnic:
I found the app : Soundabout , works just perfect for the moment
[Other SmartWatches] yoda2007:
Soundabout? An app for the G2??? [emoji15]

Enviado desde mi LG-D855
[Other SmartWatches] toysnic:
No !!! lol. Instaled on my phone... But, better than soundabout : tasker ! I program auto switch off BT when I use calls or enter my car. Tasker is really amazing.

you can use app on playstore - Lama.

in Lama you must create some rules:

1. when incoming call and talk - bluetooth is power off

2. when end of call - bluetooth power on

guys i went for a walk and had both pedometers, the watch and the phone and i had different results !

and while i might understand 10-20 even 100 steps, the 5603 vs 4151 steps and 2.5km vs 2km i believe is something to consider ...

any advise ?

[Other SmartWatches] cheorge:
because of the gps on the phone i trust the phone
[Other SmartWatches] crucius:
Mine arrived today, finally. I've been using it, and so far I'm actually enjoying it.

However, every once in a while bluetooth just disconnects. However, my phone is right next to me on the table... Also, sometimes I stop receiving notifications. And I don't know how to update the firmware since I have a Mac...
[Other SmartWatches] Sophia Lee:
I have got one for my friend, it looks good. He is very enjoy it.
[Other SmartWatches] crucius:
Anyone knows how to clear all notifications? It's rather annoying to have to manually open each one of them.
[Other SmartWatches] poldo1972:
You can push one of the notifications until the screen change, in the new screen you can choice if delete one or all
[Other SmartWatches] crucius:
The only option I have is to "block" a particular app (such as Messages or Facebook). When I open a notification I have no other options.

Btw: I'm also receiving two messages notifications, one shows the Message's app's icon, and the other a yellowish envelope.

Another btw: Is there a way to keep the watch from vibrating when the phone is doing a continuous action, such as downloading an app or recording the screen?
[Other SmartWatches] Rene_ajax:
Damn, what pity!

On Jan 20th you could have bought this watch for only €8,50!!!

Solution

I had the same problem. The solution that I found was Tasker + Bluetooth plug-in. I have a command so that when an incoming call is detected, it disconnects with the device and after the call is ended is reconnects. Pm me or reply for more info/help.

[Other SmartWatches] coopersimith:
Won't support the turkish language, but do support these language: Chinese, English, French, Russian, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian. Update is available.
[Other SmartWatches] Kir13y:
I needs some help pls!

The website says that there was an update in Feb but the Mediatek app says that there is no update and it shows an older date. Can someone give me some good instructions because the ones in the download were very unclear. Could you also provide links to needed resources THANKS!
[Other SmartWatches] aaronmfisher86:
Google Play Music / Pandora /etc.

Can you control Google Play Music and/or Pandora with this watch or only play music files locally stored on your phone?
[Other SmartWatches] Kir13y:
You can do remote connect to play music. I have a Note 4 on Verizon and Google Play music works but Pandora doesn't. But you have to have the device connected as media in bluetooth settings so the music needs to play from the watch speaker. I dont use it much but if you have any further questions you can PM me or reply.
[Other SmartWatches] coopersimith:
None coupon is available, but much cheaper than Amazon, which only cost $71 at Tinydeal.

Hi,

I've just bought a G2 watch and it's quite good for the price.

But there's a problem : I can't sync messages..... contacts : ok... calls list : ok.... but no notifications for SMS or email... is that normal?

It's linked to a Galaxy note 4...

Thanks.

[Other SmartWatches] tonyzoc:
I flashed the new firmware 015_04_10 and although I got an error at the end it seemed to flash ok. I can't see anything new in this Rom...Maybe all bug fixes?

---------- Post added at 02:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:25 PM ----------

I'be had this watch for 1 day and most things work ok.

Things I'm not crazy about are...

1. Phone music sound plays through watch. I have an HTC One with stereo speakers. Why would I want sound coming from the watch? This should be optional.

2 . Email notifications come through but no header info...who email is from, etc.

3. All fitness functions are manually started and stopped. Maybe this is good, but I like my Mi Fit better.

4. Only 2 apps...Yahoo weather, good, another clock face, lousy. That's it...no other apps and not likely any coming.

Things I like...

1. Heart rate is not bad...fairly accurate for me.

2. Notifications work well.
[Other SmartWatches] Kir13y:
To fix the audio playing through watch just go to bluetooth in settings and click on the watch. Then uncheck the "media" box.
[Other SmartWatches] tonyzoc:
Thanks

---------- Post added at 10:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:18 AM ----------

I realized some email notifications do have header info...namely Gmail. Other IMAP or POP mail only has the To a dress...basically it echos what's in the phones notifications

Help updating the watch

I followed the instructions on the website but it just says 0% and wont change. Can anyone help me?
[Other SmartWatches] tonyzoc:
Are you talking flashing the firmware? If so, a couple of things to try. I did it on Windows 8.1. Start by opening the flash tool as administrator ( right click...run as admin). Make sure you set the formatting as described...setting in the drop-down, not the format top line menu. Make sure the RAR is unzipped...in case it's possible to browse inside the archive. If you start and nothing happens, unplug the USB then plug it back in. You should have installed the driver by right click and run the inf file. Install the correct driver for 64 bit OS. Make sure watch is off when you plug it in. When I did mine it went to 100% and gave an error at the end. It did flash ok though when I started the watch and checked the firmware version.
[Other SmartWatches] Kir13y:
I tried all of those things but for some reason when I try to install the driver again it says Windows XP instead of Windows 7. It still just says "0%[Waiting]" I am going to keep trying to get it to work but thanks for the help!
[Other SmartWatches] tonyzoc:
I thought XP had a separate driver. Don't use the driver bat file...go into the driver folder for XP and right click and install the INF file.
[Other SmartWatches] Kir13y:
"The INF file you selected does not support this method of installation." Ehhhhhh hmmm welp uhhh. Got any idea how to fix this? >_<
[Other SmartWatches] tonyzoc:
Are you 64bit XP? Is there such a thing? Got another PC to try.
[Other SmartWatches] Kir13y:
Im on 64 Windows 7 and I will try it on a different computer.
[Other SmartWatches] Kir13y:
On both computers I am getting a really weird startup message. "Scatter: The operation completed successfully4" (Yes there is a 4 there). I'm attaching a screenshot below.
[Other SmartWatches] tonyzoc:
Another observation....

None of the camera option actually work. You can try changing resolution from 240x240 to 640x480 (which isn't even proportional) and it doesn't change. Same with changing or turning off camera sounds. So 0.3 MP is more like 0.1. The problem with this watch is it's a decent hardware platform with absolute shi_t for software.

Correction....you can save settings, but you have to go back to the same option and click save instead of select...weird. so you have to select the option twice...once to set it and once to save it.
[Other SmartWatches] Kir13y:
The 640x480 is pretty ok resolution for a watch. The software is not very good and that's why you need to select and click save.
[Other SmartWatches] tonyzoc:
Yes...this is very capable hardware with very poor and limited software. I really didn't expect much for $60 as this isn't my first round with Chinese copies.
[Other SmartWatches] Kir13y:
Has the software fixed the IR blaster yet?
[Other SmartWatches] yoda2007:

I bought this smartwatch too. I have a certain issue. When someone calls me i see only the number that calls and not the name of the contact. If i go to call logs the name is showing up normaly. Have you got any idea ? All my contacts are google contacts and my mobile is galaxy note 4.
[Other SmartWatches] V-J:
Ok just found something weird. The issue that i have is about syncing the contacts. The smartwatch havent synced all the contacts so the contacts that are not synced they dont show caller name when they call me. The contacts that managed to sync show the caller name right when the telephone rings. Any ideas ?
[Other SmartWatches] Kir13y:
I would try a factory reset on the watch and make sure that you click accept if it asks to share contacts on your phone.

Hope that works!
[Other SmartWatches] V-J:
Tried a lot of resets. The phonebook keep syncing exactly the same. Something isnt right i suppose with the process...
[Other SmartWatches] Kir13y:
Do you have the right mediatek version? Try uninstalling mediatek and scanning the QR from the watch to get the right version.
[Other SmartWatches] V-J:
I had installed the app from the qr... Checked for newer version too it says i have the latest.

How do i connect my phone and my g2 and my lg 730 at the same time
[Other SmartWatches] Kir13y:

[Other SmartWatches] bdconn:
Problem connecting G2 to Galaxy Note 4

I just got my G2 yesterday and am having difficulty getting it to connect to my Galaxy Note 4 via Bluetooth. After charging up my watch I downloaded and installed the Mediatek SmartDevice v. 1.1.1 When I tapped the watch icon in Mediatek to connect the watch to the phone I get one popup to verify that the pairing number is correct and one popup notifying me the watch will see all my notifications. It then sits there saying "connecting", but never gets to the connected state. If I look in the Bluetooth settings of the phone it shows the G2 device name in blue and says under it "connected to phone and media audio". It does not say it is paired. With the phone and watch in this state I am able to receive calls and call others, and I have been able to control my Rhapsody phone app from my watch.

Any ideas on how I can get this complete its connection and sync?

[Other SmartWatches] Karl Brunton:
Simple answer to all of these problems on this page. Don't buy a cheap Chinese rip off of a smartwatch.

I made the mistake of purchasing one of these and in my opinion it is no better than a cheap digital watch.

The best it can do is tell the time.

None of the features work properly. Can't pair the device with the phone properly and the whole UI is well...ugly and not very responsive. The lack of SD card with so little built in memory means the watch will inevitably crash and die at some point.

I recently spent a few extra bucks on a Samsung Galaxy gear s. Now that is a purchase well worth making. If you have a Samsung phone. Fantastic device, pretty much a standalone phone on your wrist. Anyone wanting a decent smartwatch get one of these.
[Other SmartWatches] Budniu:
