I use the SPECK Presidio Grip case. I dropped it a couple of times, some of the drops were really bad but the phone survived all of them without any damages whatsoever.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Wilazn:
Dropped my phone any times with the UAG case and not a scratch on the case or the phone.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] HueyT:
Nothing will survive a 25 story drop. Sorry. Maybe neck strap like those waterproof universal phone pouches?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] kush621:
Even the Rhinoshield bumper case works phenomenally well. I've dropped my phone countless times with just the bumper case and have never had an issue.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] RogerF81:
Perhaps, have a look at this: https://www.ipitaka.com/products/magcase-for-google-pixel-2?variant=4542502469660
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Wilazn:
These offer zero protection on the top and bottom edges. Waste of my $50. I loved the case till it dropped a certain way and my screen shattered. Threw the case away after that.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] RogerF81:
Uh interesting, I haven't expected this
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] heckdotcom:
I'd recommend the RhinoShield ones. I've used two of them on my Nexus 6p and now the bumper one on my Pixel 2XL. The 6p bumper survived falling down the stairs, the bumper got scuffed but the phone was ok.

Has anyone tried the new Google Sounds app on the PH-1? Is there a modded version of it yet to use on our Ph-1 phones?
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] autosurgeon:
Yep I have it installed and it works fine. You do have to manually give it storage permissions and then it pops up as an option in sounds.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] swiftbones74:
I'm running it as well.. I looks better than the old settings but I thought there would be better choices of ringtones.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] autosurgeon:
That will likely expand with time similar to the wallpaper app.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] mruno:
Tried installing from apkmirror and there is no icon in my launcher. additionally, when i use it to select a ringtone, it crashes
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] jsaxon2:
Go-to Settings/Apps and Notifications and find the Sounds app. Give it Storage permission and it should not crash.

I noticed an excellent battery life.

Used to be at the end of the day I be lucky to has 30% battery life, now I end the day with 70% battery life.

This is a win.

Yes it has no speaker but honestly my last 3 watches had a speaker and I never used it.

Yes I would like to have a speaker anyway but the excellent battery life makes up for the lack of a speaker

Fossil Sport Batery

Endurance Sport Fossil is great for me!

Every new charge consumes better.

Definitely better than my old Huawei watch 1

-Type by hand

-to calculate the steps

-all notifications turned on

-Fosily the face

-When sleeping on the plane + switched off the watch display

Ps: Everybody uses a watch differently !!!

Current price in Germany: 199, - Euro
[Fossil Q Founder] Aqua1ung:
Heard rumors about WearOS 2.3 coming to Fossil SPORT, though so far no such update has hit my watch. Still waiting. :(
[Fossil Q Founder] Pepousek67:
Wear0S 2.3 I do not have too.

but now we are waiting for an update H (Android 9.0)

Other models and brands have already gotten them!
[Fossil Q Founder] Aqua1ung:
I don't know what to believe anymore: my watch shows WearOS version 2.3, but "Android OS" shows 8.1.0. What am I supposed to make of this? And yes, I've heard of "Version H," but that's not what I have apparently.
[Fossil Q Founder] g0rnex:
How good is the vibration?

I am looking for a smartwatch to help my mother who is hard hearing. Does the fossil sport vibrate enough to wake a person up? How long and hard does it vibrate?

Also the watch should notify her of fire alarm, visitors at the door etc. I assume that since it's a wear watch you can get notifications from ANY smartphone app on the watch?
[Fossil Q Founder] Pepousek67:
Vibration wakes me up every day, can be set, normal. I use long and double!
[Fossil Q Founder] Guto ViP:
Any news about update?
[Fossil Q Founder] Aqua1ung:
Nothing. Not a peep. Very frustrating. Watch is pretty much useless without an update to make it snappier.
[Fossil Q Founder] jmartin72:
I just got a new Fossil Sport. I have Android Wear 2.6 and the new Wear OS tiles
[Fossil Q Founder] Aqua1ung:
What "Android OS" do you have? 8.1.0?
[Fossil Q Founder] jmartin72:
Yes, 8.1
[Fossil Q Founder] Aqua1ung:
There were rumors a while ago that 9.x is in the offing, which would finally unlock some features of the 3100 chipset. Looks like they're taking their sweet time, so maybe we'll see 9.x right about the time the 3100 chipset is obsolete.
[Fossil Q Founder] Pepousek67:
I have Android 8.1 with Wear OS 2.6 and I don't have any tiles, may it matter what version of WerOS we have in my mobile?
[Fossil Q Founder] jmartin72:
Another rumor is that Google is finally going to release a Pixel Watch. One would assume that it will have said 3100 chipset, and the new OS based on 9.x. One would also assume when that happens all the watches that have the 3100 will be updated at that time, or soon after. Who know with Google though.
[Fossil Q Founder] SnowFuhrer:
I am new to smartwatches, but anyway, is there development for the fossil sport/bootloader unlocking?
[Fossil Q Founder] lscheres:
I got tired of waiting for a pixel watch, there have been rumors for almost a year lol. The fossil sport seems decent for now. I'll probably sell it when, and IF, the pixel watch comes out. The pixel 2 xl has been my best phone ever ill be getting the pixel 3xl when the 4 comes out which I hope they finally release a pixel watch.
[Fossil Q Founder] g0rnex:
unlimited vibrate on notifications to wake me up

I want a smartwatch that can wake me up on every notification I want.

I used "smart wear notification" but even when setting a very long vibration patter it just vibrates the maximum firmware based vibration time.

I want it to vibrate until i turn it off like the alarm so it wakes me up on important notifications.

any other way I can do that, maybe I have to root te smartwatch (I'm new to smartwatches, don't know what is possible)
[Fossil Q Founder] TheATHEiST:
Anybody who is like me an regularly checks the OS update option for update but it always seems up to date try this. Just tried and it actually worked. I'm downloading an update now. At first it said the usual up to date but tapped a few times, went out and then went back in and it started downloading :D

As far as I can tell I currently already have on watch same latest version (8.1.0/Tiles) as others here already but I'm assuming this new update is security patches. I'm hoping it's some performances improvements though as the watch/OS is really laggy.

[Fossil Q Founder] g0rnex:
solved alarm mode for notifications

Found a solution for my own problem.

Vibration Center for Wear seems to solve my problem perfectly. Alot of vibration pattern options, snooze options...

this one could also work. Did not test myself

Love that stock watch face, anyone ported it out yet? if yes please let me know, that stock watch face would look dope on any watch.

[Fossil Q Founder] tedcousens@gmail.com:
anyone got a gen 5 yet?

with 8 GB storage, I want to download and play music offline. Any suggestions for best Wear OS app to do that? TIA
[Fossil Q Founder] Aqua1ung:
Gen 5 is what the "Sport" was supposed to be. Half gig RAM is what's killing the Sport. Had the "Sport" had 1G of RAM, it would have been usable. As it is right now, it's useless. We, Sport owners, have been had.
[Fossil Q Founder] tedcousens@gmail.com:
yeah well

I was inside 90 days, sent back the Sport and metal bracelet and got the 5 for about $40 more...sorry, I didn' t know there was a forum up for the 5, posted my question there.
[Fossil Q Founder] ashwinpart:
Does the Gen 5 have the H update?
[Fossil Q Founder] twcobra:
Yes it does.

Cannot charge fossil sports

Hi Guys,

What charger do you use for charging fossil sports. I used a 2 amp charger but after 2 months my fossil sports stopped charging from this charger and now only charges from laptop usb port.

Now everytime I have to charge I have to start my Laptop.
[Fossil Q Founder] mmontuori:
Is the Fossil Sport gen 4 still alive?

I purchased this smart watch in the middle of 2019 and I believe it's dead, the vendor promised some updated extended battery mode, and up to this point, my watch did not receive any software updates since I purchased it. I was wondering if this is normal with smart watches to expect a 6 month to 1 year of software updates only?
[Fossil Q Founder] dersie:
It is "Wear OS" this OS is almost Dead, no Fossil Fault. Fossil can not write or change the way an OS from Google works ;)
[Fossil Q Founder] mmontuori:
While I agree with you regarding the overall state of Wear OS, Fossil promised some updates that are part of the Gen 5 to previous Gen 4 models... also upgrading the operating system to the latest Android release H, that would be part of Fossil responsibility...
[Fossil Q Founder] dersie:
Ah yes, if it is not even on the last Android core H it is a Fossil Fault. What version has the Gen 5 ? 8.?
[Fossil Q Founder] mmontuori:
Gen 4 has Android 8, Gen 5 has 9...
[Fossil Q Founder] ashwinpart:
My Fossil Sport just got updated to Android H :) The new battery modes are there as promised. Feels much smoother than before.
[Fossil Q Founder] mmontuori:
What a surprise! I confirm the update. Due to limited space on the device, I had to factory reset to apply the update. Not a big deal, just to inform anyone finding out that the download pauses and never finishes...
[Fossil Q Founder] Pepousek67:
Finally a big update of Fossil SPORT on Android H (9)?❤️⌚️??
[Fossil Q Founder] xandreasx:
Hi guys,i have just bought it and i'm waiting the delivery

I would like to know if you noticed some improvements with battery or with the lags after the Android H update
[Fossil Q Founder] mjs2011:
I just bought one and it's super laggy and probably going back. But I did notice that I'm on an August update so I'll see if that helps.
[Fossil Q Founder] n9yty:
When I first got mine, it was useless for the first few hours as it was doing who knows what updates behind the scenes, I think mind had to do two system updates plus all the behind-the-scenes app updates that they do, hugely unresponsive for periods of time with no indication that it was busy. However, once it settled down and all the updates were installed, it has been working quite well for me.
[Fossil Q Founder] mjs2011:
Did your battery get any better? I was losing 10% per hour. It's already in the box and going back, and I'm picking up a Fitbit Versa 2.
[Fossil Q Founder] n9yty:
Yes, battery life is quite good now. IpI have previously had an Asus Zenwatch 2 (digitizer stopped working), a TicWatch E (gave to my son) and a TicWatch E2 (just didn’t turn on one day). This Fossil Sport is far more responsive and has, so far, much better battery life. I don’t leave the display on all the time and turn off tilt to wake as I found on the others that it kills battery. Given the constraints of WearOS, after letting the watch settle in I am very pleased with it. They do take a little while before you can get a good idea of real battery life, they will all Improve over what you see in the initial first few days.
[Fossil Q Founder] rodken:
I usually start the day at 6:10 am with 100%. It's 7:17 pm and I'm at 55% with heavy usage. Here's what I do:

essential digital watch face [that is a given]

always on screen

auto brightness off (usually set to 4 or 3 brightness)

sunlight boost off

tilt to wake on

touch to wake on

wrist gestures on

background heart rate on

WiFi off

sound off

NFC off

location on

OK Google detection off

I also implemented a simple charging strategy that will ensure maximum battery life all day. Before bed, while reading a book or whatever, take your watch off and let it charge. Gen 5 has a quick charger so it only takes an hour from dead to get to full battery.

When you're ready for bed, put your watch back on [if you wear it to bed] and turn on airplane mode, and turn on theater mode. You'll only lose a few percent overnight, about 5% to 8%. While getting ready for work in the morning, put it back on the charger and by the time you're done, both you and the watch are ready for the day!
[Fossil Q Founder] dersie:
Can you post your battery graph from the phone Wear App with this data ?
[Fossil Q Founder] rodken:
WIP.
[Fossil Q Founder] dersie:
Not the graph that you talk ;)

You say 66% remaining after 13H so 34% use in 13H = 34/13 = 2.6% by hour

Here you show a graph with watch used just few hours and graph say : 80% remain to last 22H so 80/22=3.6% by hour. If I report of your previous post with 13H at 3.6% hour it drain 47% and remain 53%, nice but not 66%.

And with a graph with just few hours not say that 10H after it keep 3.6% by hour ;) mainly if you say "high usage".
[Fossil Q Founder] rodken:
I forgot to mention that I still use Wrist Gestures and periodically changing Pujie Black watchfaces to see which one sticks. Sorry for the inconvenience. Post has been updated.
[Fossil Q Founder] xandreasx:
I used it from 9:00 until 22:00 and i was with 41% remaining.

Anyway guys, i hope that this is not spam, i've just created a Facebook group for this smartwatch where we can easily share pictures and updates

https://www.facebook.com/groups/2888904204500229

If it's spam you can delete this post and i'll say sorry
[Fossil Q Founder] dersie:
heavy usage and always ON with also tilt to wake ?
[Fossil Q Founder] xandreasx:
No tilt to wake

Just AOD from 15:00

Before was like 3.4% of power consumption per hour and with AOD was about 5,6% of power consumption per hour

Not heavy usage

Some apps and some notifications
[Fossil Q Founder] dersie:
OK, it is right. So I do not know why other user say it drain 2.6% by hours with higher usage ???
[Fossil Q Founder] xandreasx:
Keep in mind that it was my first real charge

Today from 7.30 am till now 3.56pm i'm at 77% with AOD off but with the tilt to wake on,wifi on,location on and BT on

So today it's going very well

But i've received few emails and i installed 2 apps and nothing more
[Fossil Q Founder] bigas80:
no one has problems with the GPS of the watch, it always stays in search
[Fossil Q Founder] rodken:
You might try uninstalling updates on the Fit app on your watch to see if that helps you also. Settings > Apps & notifications > App info > System apps > Fit > Remove upgrades.
[Fossil Q Founder] bigas80:
I have tried but it doesn't work the same
[Fossil Q Founder] rodken:
Deactivate system-apps to see if helps with GPS:

-> Go to Settings - Apps & Notifications - App-Info - System-Apps and deactivate following apps:

- Analog Elements - this is a google watch face. If you don't use them, deactivate it

- Instructions for wrist gestures - I don't need to see again the instructions, so deactivate it.

- com.Fossil.Charge.Ray / com.Fossil.Charge.FireFish - The unnecessary charge screen. When you charge now your

watch, you see your watch face. Deactivate it

- Digital Elements - This is a google watch face. If you don't use them, deactivate it

- E-label - This are the regulatory information for the watch in System - regulatory information. Don't need to see

them, so deactivate it

- Service Tool - I don't know was this is, Could be a Service Tool for Fossil. So deactivate it.

- Translator - If you don't need a translator on your watch, deactivate it

Deactivate in General - Start media controls automatically
[Fossil Q Founder] bigas80:
I don't understand what it has to do with GPS. It works for you without connecting to the phone
[Fossil Q Founder] rodken:
Affirmative. Your GPS issue might be software related. Therefore, by experimentation, you can develop a sense of trial and error.
[Fossil Q Founder] bigas80:
It does not change! Does GPS work without your phone?
[Fossil Q Founder] rodken:
Yes. You might want to pay a visit to the nearest Fossil store and report your findings?

Hello everybody,

My smartwatch has a little issue. When I reboot the watch the steps counter resets. My question is Why? And I read somewhere the issue of sync between the Fit phone app and Fit smartwatch is not repair. I uninstalled the fit app in my phone but I bought this watch for sport... And Google pay?

Is there a solution ?

The watch is cute and only 69e new in France ?. For running and bodybuilding it's very good. XIAOMI airdots connected to the watch, and let's go

Please excuse my poor English level ?
[Fossil Q Founder] dersie:
Certainly reset until it sync again with Google Fit app with phone sync or from the watch when it connect on the Google Fit account. Check in Watch Fit app if the account is set correctly.

-----------------------------------------------------

sans doute remis à zéro par le reboot et les valeurs seront récupérées après synchro avec l'application Google Fit du phone. La montre peut se synchroniser aussi avec Google Fit directement. Vérifier que le compte Google de Fit soit bien sélectionné dans les paramètres de l'appli Fit de la montre.
[Fossil Q Founder] madontime:
I find the problem. I've a XIAOMI MI band 4 paired with my phone and the Mi fit app. Mi fit is paired with Google Fit account. Even I walk 9000 steps per day the Google fit see 0 with my Mi band. I disabled mi fit in Google fit App and the phone sensors in the app, now all is perfect ❤️
[Fossil Q Founder] KiwisIbk:
Who is facing permanent unresponsive touchscreen on last update 2.17 H MR1, especially after charging when to put in password, but quite often when using other apps like Google Fit, or even when just wearing and looking to notifications?

Question

Hello, I had a problem with the fossil sport about a month ago the clock stopped working, it gave a yellow screen and after that the screen was dead, the clock continued to work because it continued to vibrate with notifications but it was not seen at the end of the Battery and put it to charge it started for a few minutes until it turned off again and after leaving it off for about a month I decided to turn it on again and surprise that since then the clock has not happened again, it continues to function normally, to someone else Has something similar happened to you and do you know why?

[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] MadScientist001:
I've read it from the MIUI Forums. Does this version really fix the touch response? If so, how can you rate it?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] misleaded:
Yeah, so no more touch delays, touch not registering, PUBG aiming bug, screen freezes, screen flickers, and this is coming from a user that faced these issues about 2 months.

Now they only need to fix those multi touches/ghost touches and it'll be perfect as it's still there
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] sh3nd0:
So I guess not all is experiencing the issues you mentioned? I had the edge back gesture not working well before and the flicker, but I never experienced any ghost touch or input lags.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] vishalpal555@gmail.com:
not everyone got all issues.... i only got touch latency which is fixed 90% what i can see now..... but they need to fix it further to make its smoother......
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] misleaded:
but somehow aiming in PUBG in 8.12.13 doesn't feel smooth and snappy 8.12.7/8.12.10.

Now they just need to fix multi touch and ghost touch. This happens when I use 2 touches and swiped them so hard.

Ghost touches always happen below the notch area and the navigation bar area

No, they still haven't fixed the bottom area latency. It's the same as it was for a couple of weeks.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Reborn.N:
For me the touch has got worse. I didn't have any touch issues on all stable ROMs I ran till this first stable Pie/Oreo rom. I say first Pie/Oreo ROM as it's the first stable Pie ROM but still using lib library from Oreo. I'm noticing that I'm making more mistakes typing than I was before so I feel it's over sensitive now
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] mario123m:
The Poco team said it themselves that they couldn't fix the touch in the latest stable release yet so it's probably the same firmware as in the earlier builds. Shouldn't feel any different.
