What does the watch say? (e.g. "cannot connect"???)

The way it worked on my Milestone with my Prada Link under Android 2.0, 2.0.1 and the latest 2.1:

1.) install openwatch

2.) goto the bluetooth settings of the phone and pair with the watch (sure, it cannot connect)

3.) open openwatch, goto settings and select "Prada Link" as the device

4.) in openwatch, press menu and START

5.) press the upper button of the watch to connect

e.g. try to uninstall openwatch, reboot the phone and install openwatch again

The only problem I got is, that it often disconnects e.g. after opening the market, installing a new app or opening an app
[Android Software Development] pastynko:
it looks like there is problem with HTC Sense, because when I try it with AOSP 2.1 Rom on my Hero, it is working fine. On HTC Sense enabled Rom I'm unable to get it work. Looks like Sense is blocking communication between Openwatch and MBW-150, as it works (when someone is calling me, I can see it on MBW-150), but there is no notification on the phone and watch are not picking up the time.

MoneyToo, any chance you can test this on HTC Sense enabled device? Or should we send you some kind of log?

Thanks in advance for you reply!
[Android Software Development] moneytoo:
Regarding OpenWatch and Android 2.x devices with HTC Sense:

I currently own HTC Dream & HTC Tattoo and I'm able to test it on Motorola Milestone. I can flash any ROM to any of these devices. There are some Android 2.1 ROMs with working Bluetooth and some ROMs with HTC Sense.

The problem is that there's no Android 2.x ROM for Dream/Tattoo/Milestone with both BT and Sense. Seems like there's a connection... But I can't test it right now.

OpenWatch for BlackBerry

Could you, please tell where I may find this "full version" if I using the wrong one? I have donwloaded "OpenWatch for BlackBerry 0.1.7.3" but each time I try to install it to my BlackBerry Bold 9700 device I get a note that "907 Invalid COD File not found"

Could you help, please? :o

Hello. Long-time user, first time poster. I've been a fan since your version for WM. I recently bought a Nexus One and of course your app was the first I installed. :)

I've found something a little odd with this program on my phone though. When I have no emails unread, the watch (mbw-150) says I have 6. However many unread emails I do happen to have gets added to that base number of 6.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hi all

HTC Desire and an MBW-150 Classic Update (white face)

Openwatch seems to be running great despite the problems some other people have had with SenseUI (mind you, I've only had it for about an hour so there's plenty of time for things to go wrong yet).

The only real problem I've got is that email notifications aren't showing the correct sender and subject line on the watch. They appear find on the phone, but on the watch they always appear as the same email - one from Amazon a couple of days ago. It's flagged as read, so I'm not sure why OpenWatch is picking that one up!

I'm using a Google Apps for your domain account, if that makes any difference.

Any ideas?

Cheers

Phil

I have a Desire too and a MBW-150 Executive. As you I have no problem to get it to run. However the watch-battery lasts less than a day.

Before this I used the mbw-150 together with an Xperia X1 and there I got more than a week from the watch between the charges.

Same problem here, with a 2.1 G1. Getting Desire tomorrow, will see what happens with that.

Cubed Player Problem and others

Hi Moneytoo! I loved the app for WinMo, and now I'm an android fan.

Thanks to you, I can still use my MBW-150.

I have a Nexus One, and almost everything is working OK, but I have some issues I'd like you to check if you ever made a new version:

1.- When I have an incomming call, I get a strange sign before showing the caller id, when before was the legend "incomming call"

2.- I installed a media player called Cubed (3) and now the watch not only doesn't control the media, but if I close the program the watch doesn't control the system volume. I've used an A2DP handsfree remote control to change the media in that player and it works OK, what do you think it may be happening?

and last, I have the same issue with unread e-mails, it doesn't seem to update the quantity.

I'd be very grateful if you gave me an opinion about this.

Thanks a lot!

I have contacted the developer of my preferred RSS reader app NewsRob and asked him if he would consider implementing OpenWatch support into his app. He told me that if people are interested, he would consider doing it.:)

Hi,

Is there any update to why HTC Legend & MBW-150 Classic (black face) is not working? Waiting for it to be functional so i can again make a donation. I'm sure there quite a few HTC Legend fans also waiting for this fix.

There's not much I can do right now. I have no idea why it wouldn't work.

I have no access to HTC Desire nor Legend so I have to wait for official update of HTC Tattoo or ROM with Sense for my other device.

But... I suspect the Bluetooth API might be somehow broken. Can you try and confirm whatever another 3rd party Bluetooth apps work? Can application "Bluetooth File Transfer" send files to other devices?
[Android Software Development] flyguye:
Hi MoneyToo,

Thanks for your quick reply, I dont know which BT "apps" you are refering to but my BT Headset works fine & so does file transfer to other devices via BT. Hope this helps a bit. I'll look forward to some promising updates from you. I have have been a long term user of smartWatch on my previous windows mobile & you have always provided great support. So believe you will soon find a fix.

cheers,

[Android Software Development] DJGibbon:
Moneytoo: I'm more than willing to help out with running any debug code you may have if it'd help (I'm a programmer, but not on Android :) ) Are there any detailed logs dropped anywhere I can send you?

After using it for a few days, it seems to be consistent on each connect, but can fall into a few different connection states:

- Displaying an old email subject instead of the current one

- Displaying no email subject, just the envelope (most common)

- Connecting then immediately disconnecting (only usually does this 3/4 times for me)

- Working properly (rarest state, unfortunately ;) )

I can't work out what's different each time that might make it fall into each state.

Cheers

Hi there,

I've been using the mbw-150 with my nexus one running openwatch for over a month now, and it's working great. Every now and then the watch disconnects, but nothing that pressing a button can't fix.

I don't know if anyone asked this before, but is it possible to set the watch to show the current music track when pressing a button? I apologise if this question has been asked before.

Thanks

Is there any news on supporting spotify? Thanks
[Android Software Development] henq:
Yes, Spotify support is really interesting!

Spotify works fine with fwd/bkw/pause on Bluetooth headphones.
[Android Software Development] alvarohm:
hi, I'm a complete beginner in android development, so I might be mistaken here.

I managed to control spotify by sending events from adb to the phone.

I used the following command to pause spotify

adb -d shell input keyevent 85

and it worked. I'm assuming that you can inject this keyevent from openwatch. If you don't have time to do that, I'll try to create an app that starts a service that listens to the relevant events from openwatch and injects the appropriate key, but first I need to learn how to develop android apps.

I don't know if there is another way of doing that. I tried to find other events to control spotify, and couldn't find anything. I also tried to find something on how to emulate the remote control bluetooth profile, but couldn't find anything.

Cheers

ps.: these are the codes for controlling media. It seems they don't work on the music player (weird).

public static final int KEYCODE_MEDIA_NEXT

Constant Value: 87 (0x00000057)

Only me having trouble with openwatch (or desire bluetooth stack) draining the watch battery?
[Android Software Development] mattyguk:
Hi,

I'm looking at getting one of these watches, but am holding off until someone can confirm it works well with 2.1 running HTC sense.

Could i ask someone to try the following as this fixed bluetooth controls, etc... issues i've had in the past.

Pop to the market and install "headset button fix" start up the app, and click enable bluetooth headset buttons. Connect the watch, does this help with the controls at all?
[Android Software Development] DJGibbon:
Hi Mnementh

I've got a Classic Update rather than an Executive, but I can't imagine they're that different internally. I'm afraid my battery life is excellent, so I'm not sure what's different with yours. Are you on the stock rom?

Also, how's the battery life if the watch isn't paired to the phone? Mine will last forever (~20% battery drop over 5 days) if left like that. It might be that the phone and watch are continually dropping connection then re-syncing? That could use a lot of battery.

Of course, if you're getting so many emails/messages/calls that the watch never stops vibrating, that could use a lot of battery too ;)

Hope you find a solution

Phil
[Android Software Development] DJGibbon:
Hi Matt

I'm on a Desire with stock 2.1 with Sense, and even without that app I have no problems with buttons etc. The only problem I have is that sometimes I don't get the email subject (but the watch still vibrates and shows the icon).

[Android Software Development] mattyguk:
Thanks Phil, I might just take a punt, and buy one this weekend then!!

TBH i skim read quite a bit as this thread is getting a little difficult to follow when you've only just found it. I must have missed some bits out.

Thanks again for updating me.
[Android Software Development] DJGibbon:
No problem, I know what you mean - when threads get this big there's no good way of getting a proper idea of what's been going on!

FWIW there have been a couple of people who've had problems with 2.1/Sense, and both of them were Legend users . . . I and a couple of other people have had success with the Desire. Make of that what you will, but I'd want a few more data points before actually saying the Legend was at fault :)
[Android Software Development] mathiosn:

[Android Software Development] mnementh:
Have been running the watch for a week now with it unpaired and the battery is as you say 3/4 full. But one thing gives me an idea... I should try turning my wlan off. I've noticed that my bluetooth handsfree looses contact sometimes when the wlan signal strength get low (ie the phone boosts the wlan output).
[Android Software Development] Broken:
Hey, love the app. Posted a problem I have on your forum and never saw a response so will go ahead and post here.

Telus Milestone user and after updating to 2.1.1 I get random watch disconnects. Sitting there and browsing the net and watch disconnected pops up. Does it at random times. Doesn't matter if both devices fully charged or not. And then other times when phone is idle it will start to ring and that is when I noticed that it has been disconnected and I didn't know it.

Other than that it has been awesome. Thank you so much for taking your time to develop this.

Just noticed another bug, might already have been mentioned, and if so sorry. If I have the vibrate function on, I get a phone call and silence it with the watch, vibration continues until call ends or I dig the phone out of my pocket and end call. Like the idea of vibrate so on the occasion that the watch has disconnected for no reason I don't miss a call while in a noisy environment.
[Android Software Development] Pyrojester:
I've had this problem with both a G1 running 2.1 and my new Desire on 2.1. Is everyone else getting the most recent email notification rather then the oldest unread each time a new email comes in?
[Android Software Development] DJGibbon:
Hmmm. When I posted, I meant that I was getting notifications showing an email that wasn't even unread (it had come from Amazon a few days before my watch even arrived). Now the most common situation is for me to always be notified of the oldest unread email (whereas I'd prefer to be notified of the subject lines of new ones as they arrive). Can anyone confirm what is the expected behaviour? I assumed it would be the latter, but perhaps not :)

Hi,

I am wondering if the current version will ever support the LM957/LM958?

I got one of these last year but since the feature set was limited on the version for the G1 it has been in a drawer waiting until I got a phone with the 2.0 API on there.

Just tried to use it and found that it does not work and a comment in this thread says it is not supported.

Cheers in advance.

I've had this trouble too with my Droid on 2.0.1 and then 2.1. Same watches I've used with an SE W810i and HTC Touch Diamond (Raphael) with SmartWatchM 0.5.0. Both of those phones worked flawlessly with both of my MBW-150s, but OpenWatch 0.5.1 seems to randomly disconnect a few times a day with both of the same MBW-150s. It's a *great* app, so just a shame that it disconnects. A button-press will reconnect, if I notice. Would love to get a fix! Thanks for dev's hard work!

I essentially just received my new Fuze (which I'm gathering is the at&t version of the Diamond) and upgraded to the new Rom. All is working well except I have a couple of questions

1. Where is the FM Radio application? I can't find it under programs or anywhere else.. am I missing something, as it supposedly was part of the ROM upgrade (which was successful)

2. Device lock.. Mine simple doesn't. I cant find any app to lock it, plus if I set the disconnect button (hangup..end..etc) to lock the device with a long button press.. nothing happens... I am completely unable to lock the device? Again am I missing something here?

3. On some applications, using Opera.. if I try to log in and there appears to be a java app to do the log in.. pressing sign in (after filling in the user id and pwd) doesn't do anything... It worked fine on my prior phone (a Samsung Epix ) and works fine on my pc?

Thanks for any help

Wow $199 after $100 rebate, hopefully this keeps AT&T's price in check, and makes the other 2 reconsider their prices.

Hi, I know how to change the softkeys on the "Home" page but I'm really not too happy with the Pro2's way of listing "all people" as the default address book, I really preferred the old windows mobile look where you could organise contacts through "company" and all that, I know you can navigate to "programs > contacts" to get this old look but it's not that convenient...

After having a search on the forum I couldn't find any definite so I thought I'd make this post. What I’m trying to do is when I click the "all people" button, (highlighted in red on the link) I want it to be able to open the standard windows mobile contact list that I mentioned above rather than the new HTC TouchFLO3D one. I know you can go into the registry and alter the main Home TouchFLO3D page's softkeys but I can't seem to find out how to change the softkeys on the other TouchFLO3D tabs (like mail, contacts and photos)... Can anyone help, thanks!

[G1 Android Development] farmatito:
This mod allows you to replace easily the system fonts

or to move your system fonts to the SD card freeing

some space in the ROM.

First thing to do is to replace libsgl.so with my modified version

or if you prefer compile it yourself after applying the attached patch.

adb remount
adb shell
cp /system/lib/libsgl.so /system/lib/libsgl.so.bak
mkdir /system/sd/fonts
exit
adb push libsgl.so /system/lib/
adb shell reboot

At reboot the system will check first in

/system/sd/fonts

if some suitable fonts are found there they will be loaded

else the default fonts in

/system/fonts

will be loaded.

The fonts in /system/sd/fonts must be named:

DroidSans.ttf
DroidSans-Bold.ttf
DroidSerif-Regular.ttf
DroidSerif-Bold.ttf
DroidSerif-Italic.ttf
DroidSerif-BoldItalic.ttf
DroidSansMono.ttf

These are optional, and can be ignored if not found in the file system.
DroidSansJapanese.ttf
DroidSansFallback.ttf

You can achieve this by moving or copying the default system fonts,

renaming the fonts you want to use or by a symbolic link e.g.

cd /system/sd/fonts
ln -s Vera.ttf DroidSans.ttf

I have tested it with DejaVu and DejaVu condensed fonts.

Enjoy and try out your own font combinations.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] FuturDreamz:
Forgive me if this has been stated months ago, but I am not able to find the answer to my question.

After getting my Blackberry wet and managing to kill it, I was left with no phone, a 33-month contract, no eligability for a discount on a new phone, and a $400 ETF (god I love Canada, but Bell can Burn in the Blood world). So Ihave no choice but to get the cheapest contract-free phone possible, which turns out to be the Samsung Ace at $99.

Problem is Bell does not offer 6.1 for this phone while Sprint in the USA does.

So, is it possible to install the OS from another carier onto this phone, or will it render the network unusable?

thanks
[Touch Pro CDMA] Lt.Glare:
Hi.

I just purchased an CDMA alltel touch pro phone from the states, and I wanted to get it to work on the bell network. The phone is unlocked and has the EnergyROM 'Aurora' (quoting from device information on the phone), rom date is 08/09/09. It was sold to me with this ROM on it.

There was a few ring tones and such on the phone, so as soon as I turned it on, I did a hard reset so that it would be a clean slate.

I then phoned bell tech support, they say to go into a bell store to activate it. I phone my local bell store and the guy was nice enough to try activating it over the phone. I gave him me MEID number, but he wanted me to type in a 'unlock code' and was also saying something about the serial number not being able to be registered.

I phoned back the bell tech support, spoke to a tech, and he said that the software on the phone might not be compatible with the bell network.

This phone, even after the hard reset, thinks it has an Idaho phone number. When I dial any number from the phone, I get a generic bell network message ('welcome to bell mobility, call this number to get help')

My questions are: Does it matter what ROM I use for the bell network?

What is the unlock code/ where can I find it for this phone?

And lastly, if the serial number (I assume by serial he meant MEID) cant 'take' on the network, am I screwed?
