Gear Fit HowTo for Bluetooth Auto-reconnect with non-Samsung Smartphones using Tasker - Samsung Gear Fit

As i did not find a answer here in the Forums i figured out a way that works perfectly for my nexus 5.
Maybe this useful for other Users too...
I don't know the exact English wording in Tasker, as my Version of tasker is German, but i think you should manage to follow the steps..
i managed to get auto reconnect working on the nexus 5 using Tasker:
1. new Profile: Status --> BT Connected --> Search Name of paired Gear Fit --> Search Address of Gear Fit --> nothing on "inverted"
2. new entry-Task: Name it "BT reconnect"
3. select Network Bluetooth --> select turn off and then go back
4. select "+" at the bottom menu to add another step to your "BT reconnect" task
5. select Network Bluetooth --> select turn ON again and then go back
6. Go back to the profile-page and long-tap on the green arrow
7. Change the Activation from ENTRY to EXIT, so you should have a red arrow instead of the green one before
if you set all this up correctly, then every time the Gear Fit goes out of bluetooth range, Tasker turns your Bluetooth on the nexus automatically OFF an back on again.
On my Nexus the Bluetooth OFF/ON procedure is enough to get the two devices automatically reconnected as soon as the gear fit is back within bluetooth range of the nexus 5. Tested several times today in normal allday-situations and worked perfectly.
Maybe this helps also the HTC One's...

Thanks! I picked up a Gear Fit yesterday from BestBuy (on sale for $150) and I no longer have to manually reconnect if I go out of range.

Tasker cannot see _Tasker.txt when I try to do a profile import. Also, your steps do not mirror what is in my Tasker app. I would like to do this but am stuck , sorry.

I don't know how to import the file. Does it need to be renamed ?
2nd solution, follow your how to, ok until the end.
I just have a message that tehre is no active profile, and the reconnection is not working.
Any help.
Thanks

Rename it to *.prf.xml

Worked, thanks

Next question, it's still not working...
Tasker tells me that no profile is active.
In the software the profile I imported is on...

First you have to connect your Gear to the phone. Then you have to choose your bluetooth device by pressing Bluetooth connected device in profile in the tasker app. Please delete the previously shown device gear fit before. That's all.
I have tested it with my HTC One M8. It reconnects only if I put on the screen of my smartphone. It seems that Bluetooth does not connect to devices if the screen is off. Has anyone an idea how to fix this. The phone is not password protected. Thanks.

Hi Folks,
I tried the description in the first post and downloaded the ready made file (and changed the settings to my own Gear Live) - nothing works on my G3. Any ideas? Can someone else post his file to import here? Is there another description? Or does it simply not work with the G3?
TIA
Edit:
Found a solution which works most of the time: I inserted a (minimum 4 second) wait between bluetooth off and on again.
My task looks like this now:
BT -> off
Wait for 4 seconds
BT -> on
Greetings

Could you please send me your file to Tasker. I can't get to work G3 with Gear Fit. Thanks.
EDIT: the problem was Knock Code. Gear Fit is unable to connect while Knock Code is set. This is really bad situation, because I need Knock Code. How can I bypass this one?

hi, i have problem with my G2 Mini. Gear fit not reconnect. From the scroll menu you see that does not have active profiles tasker... My G2 not reconnect with Gear fit. From my test G2 Mini not turn off and on the bluetooth, the settings bluetooth is static. Best Regad fo your help

thanks
I joined this forum to say thank you to the OP. This tasked option works great on my Nexus 5. I had the 'no active profiles' error but a simple reboot of the phone fixed it for me.

Stupid request but can someone post a more in depth tutorial on how to get this to work?
Thanks :good:!

Alternative to Jetware Mobile 1.31

Has anyone seen or uses a similar application to jetware mobile to enhance the bluetooth on your PDA??
I use BatteryStatus, It can place a (bluetooth, wifi) shortcut on today....
Have a look also to Ilauncher....
With that you can have what ever icon you want on your today....
So bluetooth, wifi, shortcuts to other program ecc.....
You can also edit the icon with your own...
That is a very nice app...
Thanks for the reply but what I am actually looking for is similar to jetware which adds extra profiles to the bluetooth stack not icons, it helps with devices or bluetooth car kits that can read sms etc
Battery status does not actually add anything or extend the bluetooth stack.
I wonder if we can contact the author of the jetware extension to release the source code. He's obviously not doing anything with it anymore.
Top! UP! UP!
Yep UP! i'm also looking for a way of extending the BT stacks functionallity without having to replace the stack itself. Perhaps we really should try to contact the author of jetware
No other app in this world to function like Jetware extension?

may i ask why are you looking for a similar one and not use this one?
i am asking 'cose i found myself long time ago that is causing some problems
with the BT communication....do you have the same problems?
In my case there are some minor problems with BT connection and it also does not deliver entire functionallity that i require - like PBAP and other stuff
Same here. It's not finished and the developer just kinda dissapeared two years ago. Sooo we're looking for someone to take over. Someone please take over on this! There could be a lot of money involved. I would pay up to $100 to get this done!
I'm on the case
Also, what is PBAP?
Ok I think I've found everything I need to get started on this. Since I don't have a device to test this with, I need to know what feature you think would be easiest to implement or what feature you want the most. ie: List contacts, list messages, etc.
This way, I can focus on implementing this one thing, and once it's working i'll know i'm on the right track and can move on from there.

HI guys
Just wondering does Jetware 1.31 work well enough with car kits? I tried my Polaris with the Alpine KCE-350BT and it doesn't work so am about to test it using Jetware. Just wanted to know do you need to run Jetware each time or just for the initial phone book upload? Once the contacts are uploaded i think it should work properly without running Jetware correct?
Just can't really place anything on the today screen or a shortcut, so interested to hear if there is anything else better.
thanks,

this didn't seem to work on my HTC TC.
Anyone else close to a working alternative? I really need something to replace OBEX and use the PBAP format to upload contacts to Alpine car kit.
Are there any registry fixes or does WM6.1 get around the problem as claimed by MS.
Cheers,
I can report that theJetware 1.31 works perfectly on my Orbit II with Parrot 3200LS car kit (use the Disable Synchro phone profile and then send contacts via Jetware).

How do you go about disabling synchro phone profile - is it the same with touch cruise?
I never really 'got' Jetware. Do you just need to send contacts once to the car kit? Also i assume you are meant to toggle bluetooth on/off using the Jetware shortcuts, not the normal bluetooth??
Thanks- i'm going to go bakc to the shop and test it now i've got a 6.1 Rom on, as the OBEX was a problem so perhaps with this turned off in adv. config. it may work (fingers crossed).
When you go to pair the phone on the Parrot, you should see 'Disable Synchro' in the list of phone types available. Select this and then proceed with pairing. Once paired, you can go into the Jetware extension (Contacts area) and Send all your contacts. The huge plus is that if you use automatic synch, you will get duplicate entries for every phone number held for a given contact. If you use the Jetware Extension to send contacts, you get one entry per contact, with all the numbers correctly identified as mobile, home, work.
Then when you dial, you say the contact name, then 'home' or 'work' etc. If you use voice dialling this is essential, otherwise you have to record every number individually (voice tag "John Doe home", "John Doe work" instead of one tag "John", then "mobile" or "home" when prompted for number type).
I hope that makes sense, but since your message is two weeks old (sorry, haven't been here for a while) you may have it figured out.
AFter all that, it seems the developers at Jetware have given up. They don't respond to email and the link to purchase the software is broken/dead. That's a bummer as I have lost my activation code and just got a new phone....

Thanks for the reply - I have never seen this option of 'disable synchro' anywhere on the phone, jetware options or on the car kit interface.
It seems to be working well enough now, but the phone book did get corrupted and couldn't fix it till i paired another phone then mine again. (contacts were mixed up - some first name last name, and didn't show /H or /M for home or mobile etc but seem ok now).
Part of it could be having to be patient with the Alpine BT kit, as it takes a while 'updating' on pairing to copy all the info again. Still doesn't work as fast or as reliably as i'd hoped, but probably good enough. May not have this phone forever, but don't want to get another one yet.
It's a shame they aren't supporting their product any more. Hopefully someone else could improve it or write something better, as the one annoying thing now is that i can't put the phone into sleep mode when i press the button - keeps powering back on to full lit screen, every few mins which wastes the battery as well as distracting when the phone is in the car mount- now i just have to lock the device as a workaround.

[Q] Any way to set time-based events on Z2?

Hi,
I've heard that there are time-based events in Android 4.4 and I've seen them on a friend's Samsung phone, but for the life of me I can't find the setting on my Z2.
What I'm looking for is a way to change the sound options based on the time, so that for example at 22:00 the phone goes on silent, and that at 09:00 it goes to normal sound mode.
It would be even better if it recognised that I'm driving to work and change the setting then.
I think I've even seen this when I was initially setting up the phone, but I can't find the events anywhere anymore :crying:
Anyone got an idea?
It's in the app called smart connect. Instead of action by device, set device to none and add a time.

[Q] Okay Google not working when connected to Gear S

I'm sure it's something simple in a setting but I need your insight figuring it out. WHen my Note 3 is BT Connected to my Gear S, I can't get the Okay Google to input any data. It will respond to the Okay Google command but when it goes to "listen" for me to say something, it will not hear me and simply times out.
What am I doing wrong?
Same with my Note Edge....

I've never even setup S Voice on my Note 4 (though I do use it on the Gear). Perhaps research the disabling of S Voice?

I use S-voice on the watch and have no trouble using Google Now (OK Google) on the connected Note 4.
I was suggesting you try to disable S Voice on the phone.
I'm not sure how to disable it on the phone completely. I have disabled the home button shortcut and voice activation but this doesn't help.
SVoice is disabled on mine and there is still no input when connected to the Gear S.
Mine just stopped working as well. Disconnect the Gear S and OK google works fine, connect and it doesn't respond, even when the microphone button is directly tapped.
Edit: Solved it.
Settings/ Languages and input / Voice Search
Bluetooth Headset - Uncheck
OK Google was trying to use the Gear S as a bluetooth headset.

Genius! Thanks a lot - this was driving me crazy!
Same problem here on my Note 4 too. Already found that turning off the bluetooth headset option in Google Search settings resolved issue. Problem is, I want to use that option when in the car because Google Search doesn't work properly when paired to the car. I was hoping this option fixed that issue.
That did it ...awesome! It was driving me crazy on my Note 5

After much prodding, Samsung admitted that neither of their tablets work with the Gear S officially. It's stupid, and the reason why I bought and am now returning my Tab.
Workarounds like the ones for non-Samsung devices are your only option.
All you can do is raise awareness on social media and hope they'll push updates to fix this.
you can't connect it with tablets as it will make you reset the watch over and over again. It is very annoying, I was going to connect it to my computer via bluetooth and use it as a microphone when i found out.
I was able to get 90% functionality by editing my build.prop on the Tab S. Of course this means you have to root the Tab S. I set the model to SM-N910A, which is an AT&T Note 4. I also had to change the characteristic to phone instead of tablet. Next I reset the Gear to factory and was able to pair it with Gear Manager. Email works perfectly and all apps seem to work. But, call forwarding and text do not work. I can use the Google SMS app if I add it to the notification in Gear manager but this does not provide for responding directly from the Gear S.
This is better than just Bluetooth connectivity and I am still working on how to get the remaining functions working. Also, I set the characteristic back to tablet after completely pairing to fix the force close when trying to get to the system settings menu on the Tab S. It doesn't seem to have any I'll effect of the Gear S but it is needed during the initial pairing with Gear Manager.

How did you get the build prop edits to stick after a reboot. What Specific Edits did you use.
ro.product.model=SM-N910A (stock is SM-T705) and ro.build.characteristics=phone (stock is tablet)
I used build prop editor from Play Store. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.apps.build.prop.editor
You have to choose menu, edit then edit the lines above for the edits to survive a reboot. I also have call forwarding working after a call to AT&T. They reassigned my IMEI from my note 4 to this number and it started working.

I don't know for sure what is going on for you, but it requires both build.prop edits mentioned, a reboot of the Tabs S after the edits and resetting the Gear S to factory. This is what it took for me. The model you input must be a Gear S supported device name.

Stratos 3 problème bluetooth

I can no longer activate the bluetooth of the watch. Strangely, it is still connected to the phone and everything works, but I can no longer connect my headphones and my cardio belt. Has anyone come across this problem before. is there a solution ?

Hey,

Hi,
Can you try these steps?
Go to system Settings in the smartwatch.
Under Settings, scroll down list and tap "About."
Under "About," scroll down to "Legal Statement."
Continuously tap on "Legal Statement" until "Lab" appears below it.
Tap on "Lab" and select "Signal Strength."
Tap "Start." A Pass or Fail message will appear once the test is complete.

It seems we are experiencing similar and related issues. Mine connects to the phone (using Bluetooth) but Bluetooth doesn't turn on (for earphones, etc.) and my wifi doesn't capture any network.
Already tried to factory reset several times and anything I can think of. Any suggestion is welcomed to try to fix this.
I will contact the Amazfit support again

Just to clarify, although the strength test fails for wifi, I am able to connect to a wifi using setting > connection > wifi.
Looking forward to see what they say to do. They told that I should contact my retailer to claim the warranty.

Not really.. The Amazfit support is not helpful.
I have installed the newest firmware using the instrucions on this forum but didn't fix it.
Found several people with the same issue in the forum but no fix..
Both bluetooth and wifi are not working for me. But I am able to connect to the app.
Hello, i have the same problem, see below the amazfit support answer
