It was easy to find the Watch 4 in the router->client list. But I just cant spot the Watch 6. It has Wifi and BLE enabled. In - Setup - About Watch - Status Information the Wifi Mac Address option is grayed out.

My wife and I both have Samsung Note20 Ultra5G and Samsung Watch 6 Classic. - I have the 47mm and my wife has the 43mm watch. We also had E-Sims installed for the watches. - My previous Samsung watch used to last me 3 days, the new one was less than a day. - My wife's went from 2 days to less than a day as well. - Additionally we had to charge our phones several times during the day. - We noticed that when the watch was separated from the phone, the phone battery was discharged much faster. - We went back to Vodafone, and they said of course, it's because of the E-sim. This is garbage, the point of the E-sim on the watch is that you can leave your phone home and use the watch for phone calls. - Anyway, blaming poorly written software, we have removed the E-sims, my phone and watch has some sanity now, the watch lasts two days (still not 3). The problem is that my wife's phone still drains battery rapidly (goes from full charge to 10% in 2 hours) when the watch is separated from it. How can we fix it?

I have a PGD Smartwatch running Android 8.1. Apps like WhatsApp, Telegram, Signal - all of them - kind of turn off after some time and stop receiving messages/calls. When you open them again - they say like you have missed calls. How to keep messenger apps running? I turned off battery saver for those apps completely. What else can I do? Is there a way I can receive messages all the time, like on a phone? Any messenger will work; I need at least one.

There is no Signal Private Messenger app for watches at the moment. If I receive a Signal message, I can reply to it from my watch through the notification system. Is there a way to send a Signal message via the notification system without first receiving a message?

I have the following hardware with software: - OnePlus 12 phone, model CPH2583: Android 14, OxygenOS CPH2583_14.0.0.802(EX01) - OnePlus Watch 2, model OPWWE231: Android 13, WearOS V6.0 I have NFC turned on my phone and watch, since I regularly use tap-to-pay and Google Wallet. However, when I place my phone near my watch (for example, holding the phone in landscape with the hand that has my watch on it, leading to the NFC reader in the phone getting close to the watch), a "New tag collected" screen pops up: I do not wish to turn off NFC on either device since I use both my phone and my watch for tap-to-pay. **Is there a way to turn off this pop-up?**

I was wondering how phones and watches communicate with bluetooth? How does it handle incoming calls or notifications received on smartphones applications?

I have been very frustrated trying to get an accurate record of steps in the Google Fit app. I have only one device, a Fitbit Sense watch, which counts my steps, and I have disactivated activity tracking in the Google Fit app. I have specified that Fit can receive steps data from another app. However, Google Fit always has a considerably lower number of steps. The difference is not consistent; it can be 70% to 80% of what the watch records. It is always lower. The watch transmits the steps accurately to another app, so the fault cannot lie with the Fitbit Sense app. I noticed that in the Fit app, the steps are broken down by minutes the walking started. Is Fit consistently rounding down? I want the steps transmitted to Google Fit to be recorded as received, not reworked in any way. I have three apps which show steps; two are in agreement and one is way off. This is not satisfactory.

**My Question will get more information over time.** I got a smartwatch (h1-c-aladeng) on my birthday, I very love it but I make a serious problem that I can't fix. Its specification: * Screen resolution is 240x240, very hard to read and type on a keyboard, and a slight misalignment of the touch screen. * Running Android 9.0. * The model (display in "Find My Device"): Lanix Ilium LT510 My problem: * A lot of features have been turned off. That is why I use the developer option and turned some features back on, but I accidentally touched "simulate secondary display" and put a display on the screen, The "Simulate Screen" blocked the screen, and I can't reach the "none" option in the setting. * During that time I have USB Debugging turned on and "always allow this computer". After that, I accidentally turned the developer option off, I turned it right back on and I didn't know that action will clear all the authorized computers connected to it. Before authorized cleared: * I can still use ADB, recovery mode, but it just shows "No Command" and auto restart. * Boot to fastboot makes it put the "fastboot" on the screen after that it just auto restarts. I try anything I can't make it disappear. I'm stuck with a second screen. and there is a way I can turn it off? More: * I don't think I can get the answer but I will still waiting... * I have tried to factory reset like *here * but it is in a different way I think. * Is there no way to factory reset it with just one physical button? * I think this watch doesn't have a real screen, it is likely this screen is just a small monitor like a PC and has software simulate it because it has too much delay like I'm going to left. It needs to be around 0.5 seconds to actually go into my point. It doesn't behave like a real phone that has mostly no delay. * I have searched and there is a mode called EDL mode but I didn't know how to access it. * I have an idea. I can connect to my phone using a micro-to-type C USB cable. Is there an app that can config the option of the OTG device? * I am able to make the "Restore factory settings" tab pop up by pressing the button multiple time but I wasn't able to touch the "confirm" button: * I open up my watch (don't worry my warranty is still there I didn't scratch anything) and here is the circuit in that:

I just purchased the Samsung Galaxy Watch6. Is there a way to transfer apps, faces, and settings over from Galaxy Watch4?

I am getting very mixed results with multiple devices connected by bluetooth to my Samsung Note 20. The devices being 1. Samsung Watch 2. Honda - Android Play 3. Hearing Aids (any brand) If a call comes in, sometimes the Hearing Aids answers it, and other times the Car answers it. I found this post [How Many Devices Can Hook Up To One Bluetooth?](https://thegadgetbuyer.com/how-many-devices-can-hook-up-to-one-bluetooth/) >**Can You Connect Many Bluetooth Devices at the Same Time?**\ It is possible to connect many Bluetooth devices at the same time. However, only one device can be active at a time. Bluetooth connections happen in three distinct ways. 1. Is this true? 2. If only one device is active, are others disconnected at that moment? 3. Is there an authoritative reference for this? **EDIT:** When I picked my 4th pair of hearing aids to test, the Audiologist grabbed my phone and unpaired everything saying, that Android only works with 3 Bluetooth devices. Of course, I had to pair them back on. I have two headphones and a PC that also use Bluetooth. So do my bed and mattress. I am assuming that this action by the Audiologist is rooted in misinformation on posts such as the one above.

I have a Samsung Note 20 Phone and a Samsung Watch 46mm. I have it set up so that the watch vibrates if it loses connection with the phone. This happens about 4 times a day, even when I have both in my possession. I havent been bothered by it. Unfortunately, this also happens when I am sleeping. It ignores the **Do Not Disturb** and wakes me at all sorts of hours. Normally I ignore it and try to go back to sleep. I finally looked at it at 4amish. Its losing connection. I dont have any automation type software installed, so nothing should be fiddling with bluetooth. **Why would the watch lose bluetooth connection with the phone ?**

I recently made a mistake on my watch "h1-c-aladeng"(watch model) or "Lanix Ilium LT510"(the model in "Find My Device"). I now can look at the smartwatch and can't do anything like "here ". Right now I want to know if I'm still able to save my smartwatch by factory resetting it. by the way, It has only 1 physical button that works like a home/power button. When pressed multiple times it pops a "reset setting" window on the screen but can't press the confirm button. It doesn't have USB debugging turned on, so I can't use ADB to reset. I search on the web for some tools but can't help either. so is there a way I can factory reset my smartwatch without USB debugging?

It seems that Samsung Watch 4 cannot be paired to tablet for some reason even tough you can install Samsung Wear app on the tablet and pair the watch via Bluetooth (so the tablet can see the watch). Just the Samsung Wear app does not see the watch. Tried googling for a long time but outside of "it is not officially supported" nothing helpful. How to make this work? Ideally without rooting anything.

I'm trying to update an app on a smartwatch, but whatever I try, I ran into errors. 1) adb install newversion.apk => [INSTALL_FAILED_VERSION_DOWNGRADE] 2) adb install -r -d newversion.apk => [INSTALL_FAILED_UPDATE_INCOMPATIBLE] 3) adb uninstall {packagename} => Failure [DELETE_FAILED_INTERNAL_ERROR] 4a) adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 {packagename} => success 4b) adb install newversion.apk => [INSTALL_FAILED_VERSION_DOWNGRADE] App is a launcher. OS has no launcher now. I still cannot install my new version. Checking for other users: pm list users -> users: UserInfo{0:Owner:13} running. So I'm the only user. Also tried the uninstall --user command with other user IDs like 0, 1, 10-15, 2000+, 300+, all nothing. I am not rooted. su does not work. It's an MT6739 chipset with Android 7.1.1 running. Nothing that I try lets me install my new app. Also not after factory reset.

I have Garmin Swim 2. On my Pixel 3A XL installed Garmin Connect , it works fine. But I want also see data on Google Fit . Unfortunately Garmin Swim 2 doesn't connect with Google Fit and I need to install third party app do this. I installed Health Sync . Look like it's working: But I don't see any activities in Google Fit where I didn't have my phone with me, for example swimming, sleep and so on. On Garmin Forum I found the following: > in Settings of Google Fit, under Tracking Preferences, Turn off " > Track your activities" Use Phone sensors to automatically track > metrics like steps and distance. Okay, I did this, but it didn't help. What I should do to sync Garmin Connect with Google Fit?

I am wondering whether, with eSIM technology, I would be able to mirror my smartphone physical SIM to my smartwatch eSIM (as if I had cloned my phone, like in the movies). Telling you my final goal could explain better what I am trying to achieve. Basically I am trying to understand if I could leave my smartphone at home (SIM included), then going out with my smartwatch (e.g. running/cycling/etc) and still receive my smartphone's notifications, texts, etc from the 3G/4G network (essentially I'll be out of bluetooth range).

Many apps used by smartbands/watches have no option to export your personal data, so you can't process/visualize, store, or migrate to other app. Also I know that some fitness apps for android apps allow the data export to external files as excel, such as Withings healthmate can sync data with its "cloud/server" and from their webpage you can export data to excel. For *Dafit and other fitness apps* with export/import : Do you know **apps/options/methods to extract its data**? Do you know **apps to process/convert data from different apps** ? /convert this

I have a TicWatch Pro 4G. As some may know, the watch only supports Vodafone. But from what I have seen, that's mostly down to the fact of the correct APN for other networks not being available. After looking in the usual places like /system/etc/apns-conf.xml, I found most APNs to be present there. However, the menu to choose the APN is always empty. After a lot of digging, I found this thread on here: https://android.stackexchange.com/questions/170634/where-apn-configs-are-saved-in-android/170656 In there, it is mentioned that there is such a thing called "ApnSourceService". However, there is basically no information available on this except that thread and some mentions in the source code, one of them being in the TelephonyProvider. In that thread, it was said, that one can disable such a Service using Magisk. However, I found no information on which service that might be, or where to find any clues. Also I looked into system-apks to find any mention, but I didn't find something useful. I also tried listing running services, but at least I didn't find something useful in there. Also I'm not really a professional, it might well be I'm completely on the wrong path with the "ApnSourceService". Thanks for any help

I have a Vivoactive 3 Series watch which is hooked up to my Android phone. When I get text messages I get notifications on my watch (what I want). However when I go in a dead zone in my house my phone will tell me that I lost data connection and then these messages get pushed to my watch. Howe can I stop them from being pushed to my watch (I am also fine with just not seeing this message on the phone as well).
