[27th Mar 09 - Updated 1.2.1.0] MyGamerTags (xbox live friends status app)

Hi,
I've just finished work on an app for windows mobile that allows you to view the status of your friends on xbox live.
It's an actual app, rather than a web browser pretending to be an app, that shows an iPhone style list of all your friends gamertags. It allows you to see whos online, what game they are playing, what they are doing in that game, their gamer picture and gamer score.
Version 1.2.1.0
Features Added:
* Notification auto closes after 10 seconds
* Notifications have a button to take you to application for further details
* Application will notify you when a new version is available for download.
Bugs Fixed:
* Fixed memory leak
* Performance inprovement for scrolling
* Performance improvement to startup time
* Fixed problem with touch sensitivity on VGA devices
* Improved icon for VGA devices
* Minor tweeks
Version 1.2.0.0
This update adds an online notification system. Now when your friends come online you will get a Notification pop up to tell you whos just come online.
Features Added:
* Can run in background
* Auto refreshes GamerTags status, using configurable refresh interval
* Generates Windows Mobile Notifications when friends come online
* Notifications can be Enabled or Disabled
* Useability enhancements.
Version 1.0.1.2
Bugs Fixed:
Fixed startup bug, which occured on some devices
Fixed VGA QVGA display problem
Version 1.0.1.0
Features Added:
Trial mode added allowing users to test out the application.
The application requires .net 2.0, so if you are using anything thats older than windows mobile 6 you will need to download and install .net compact framework 2.0 or higher from Microsoft here
Attached is a screen shot. For more information or to download my app please go to my site: http://www.fehnerssoftware.co.uk

finally a gamer has the need.. just like me
thanks bud.. downloading it right freakin now.
Edited
ohhh wait...
i would have to see it in action before i spent a dime.. sorry mate

this would be really cool if i didnt have to buy. At least let me try it first, to see I its worth it. Funny the app store for the iphone have very good xbox friend apps all for free.

I've been dying for someone to develop a true WinMo app for XBL friends list. I'm excited to try it, but do wish there was a demo. will there be game stats and messaging integration?

Well I would suspect iPhone owners paid for it, so why not cough up- if you want it?

I'm going to have to agree with the "try before you buy" feeling going on here.
At least take a video showing how the app works on your own phone please.
Although this would be an awesome app, I have been looking for a program or script that sends me an sms whenever a specific friend is on XBox Live so I can join up, any one heard of something that does that?

Hi all,
Thank you for the positive response
I've taken on board all your comments and aim to produce a limited feature trial version, which will allow you to try it out before committing to a purchase.
I will post back here when I have made the updates.

Iphone people got it for free Micosoft stepped in and made the company give the application for free

ya i like that.. if you remember way back in the day the original xbox and orignal xbox live did that.. sent an sms, and IMed you on msn..

I like the idea of the app. But it doesn't seem to do enough for me to pay for it. I mean.. there are much more useful apps on this site(and others) for the ppc that are free.
I tip my hat to you sir. Nice looking app. You have inspired me to work on an open source version for myself.

Version 1.0.1.0 - trial mode
Hi again,
I have now updated my site with version 1.0.1.0 of my xbox live friends status app.
Version 1.0.1.0, will run in a trial mode while un-registered, so you can try it out. It is limited to displaying two gamer tags.
Hopefully this will give you a feel for the app.
For more information or to download my app please go to my site: http://www.fehnerssoftware.co.uk/mygamertags.shtml

Nice! I was waiting for something like this. Going to try it out.
Thank you!

I accidentally uploaded an early version which had a bug if you were using the app for the very first time.
The bug has since been fixed and a new version uploaded not long ago.
Are you able to try the latest version?

well my first dl was at 11pm cst.. also just re-dled same error

Hmm strange I know of a number of people now using this without issues.
What device are you using? Are you running this on a windows mobile phone?
Any chance you could scroll down on the details screen for the error so I can see the full call stack?

Thanks for that.
It seems the way I get the devices unique serial number is not working for your device. I have an idea of how to get this working on your device.
I'll get working on it
Thanks.

I've put up a new level on my site which should fix the crashes on startup some people were experiencing.
Please let me know if it you experience any problems.
Thanks.

ok...
i did get this one to install and run...
however i have an issue.
you have it set to simply look up gamertags.. which is cool... however, I, like thousands of others, have set up my profile so that only friends can see if the person is online.
so genericly putting in gamercards wont work for me as i wont really know who is online..
unless the app can see its ME looking..
for example... I put in my gamertag.. and it said i was offline... but i wasnt, however if your not on my friends list.. i appear offline.
and i dont remember if it did or not, but i dont think it said what game they where playing.. again if you do fix it so i can see my friends online, if i cant see what game they are involved in.. its no good as well.
i gave you alot of negative, which is ****ty of me..
so i do want to say from what i can see it looks awesome.

RWatch M26 and iOS 8

Hi guys,
I had a look for such a discussion but did not find sucha thread. I have the Chinese Rwatch M26 smart watch and iPhone 5 with iOS 8. Is it possible somehow to connect it to my device and get the push notifications on screen for messages, Facebook, email, etc. It works with Android phone, tested, but is there a way to do this with an iOS device? Currently I can only dial, take calls and that's it basically.
Thanks a lot in advance for your replies!

Do you have any idea? I found some apps which say they send all the notifications to a bluetooth device but do not seem to work.

Heard it is possible to get m26 to work with ios. I believe you need to jailbreak then go to Cydia. There you will find app to push notifications. Forgot name of app

Hi there, thanks for the reply.
Yes, I found BTNotificationEnabler on Cydia, but it does not seem to work with iOS 8. The menus are different and the Bluetooth options do not appear anywhere... Ano other options for an app which does this?
Best,
Rangel

Connect iPhone and RWatch M26
Hi, you need to install SmartBluePlus from the App Store and connect your phone with that app.
When you connect, it asks you to pair. When this succeeds you will get notifications you also get on you iPhone's lock screen. Good luck

I need help!! I bought a M26 Rwatch... When I plug it in to charge it keeps saying "charging error" and won't charge anymore.. Does anyone have any ideas??

application does not work on ios 8.0.2

Hi I've downloaded the Smartblue and Smart blue plus from the App Store and neither identifies my watch. Any suggested apps that will actually connect. I can make and receive calls but that's it. I even downloaded the btnotifier and nothing worked.
Thanking you for your suggestions/ help in advance.

X5 Plus first week and some issues

Hi all,
I finally decided to go for the Finow X5 plus after reading you a lot, I thought AMOLED display was worthy, and it is.
I've spend 1 week with it and I have some "difficulties" , most on software part.
-I cannot pair the watch with my S7 Edge via bluetooth, I just can only tethering internet connection, but not pairing in order to get notifications.
I've tried every single app you recomend in other threads but the thing is devices can't be paired if is not for tethering, in connection"/Bluetooth I see my phone, I click on it but it does nothing,I need to click on the right side nut to set the tethering to connect...has anyone faced this issue before?
-Menu distribution is such a pain, to get the apps icon you need to scroll 5 times, not handy at all. I decided to install Nova Launcher, it works great, also de gestures are very usefull, but when using it ".vxp" watchface cannot be displayed and a clockwidget needs to be used as watchface. Is there any way to have Nova Launcher working in background so gestures still work while displaying ".vxp" watchface? that would solve a lot of daily use issues this firmware has.
Thanks for your replies

I haven't tried it yet, I'll reply to you when I do, hopefuly tomorrow
EDIT: I've used it today in the country side and GPS worked well, good signal all day waearing it on my wrist.

I have one question regarding FINOW X5 Plus.
Is it waterproof? Or just IP55/54?
I can`t find this info...

To connect to your smartphone you need to download app. You may easily find link to this application by selecting "Watch helper" app on your smartwatch and on the bottom is QR code with this link (tip: click it to enlarge).
Next, you need to enable Bluetooth both on your smartwatch and phone. Next, try to pair both devices. You'll propably see verification code, select "Pair" option.
You cannot pair your watch from bluetooth menu, so please open Watch Helper app, click "Select device" and click your watch on the list (propably mentioned as "X5 Plus"). Now youre connected to your smartwatch

Hello Friend, how are you ?
I have an X5 plus that came with GPS problem (which finds satellites but does not set). It is probably the NVRAM.bin file that has a problem.. Can you send me a copy?
I already asked the file for Finow, but unfortunately there is no support, no one answers.
If you can help me, I'll explain how to copy the file.
can you help me ? Thank you

Have you tried a factory reset by recovery? With the clock off, hold down the power button + down button, when the finow logo appears, release the power button and continue holding the down button. You will enter the recovery screen. Using the physical buttons, go to clear emmc and confirm with the power button. This will erase all data from your smartwatch.

I use M2D bluetooth manager, M2D sender (on phone) and M2D receiver (on watch). It works great.

Dear sirs,
1. Is it normal that battery last only about 8-9 hours although I have put on flight mode and only enabled Bluetooth for notifications from my phone.
2. On X5 plus, how can I check what applications are draining the battery life? It shows the battery percentage only. (X5 can see but not in X5 plus)
3. How can I find more of the different watch styles and download to use?
4. Its a pain in the butt to scroll to the Apps or Settings page each time. I have tried using the floating accessibility ball or such but significantly drained the battery. Are there any other shortcuts button/launcher for round watch available?
5. Google map, how can I zoom out after zooming in?
Thanks a lot.

Finow x5 plus Smart watch suddenly stopped and will not turn on. Please help

Amazfit - no notifications from phone

Got an AmazFit A1602 watch, Chinese ROM. Set it up, updated it, played with PACEified for a few seconds (hadn't figured out how to OTA the stock ROM yet, so it hung-up when screen went off), went back to Chinese ROM, OTA'd it, reset it in English, and that's where I left it for about a week. Worked great, loved the watch. But, coming from a Gear Live (that wore out), I can't stand not getting my notifications on the watch...
So I dug further into it. Replaced the Chinese ROM with the English ROM - now it thinks it's an A1612 PACE. Kewl. Whatever. App works, everything works, repaired the recovery and OTA works (wellp, now I'm stuck on it, after finding the bootloader is now locked). But NOTIFICATIONS still don't work!
Tried it on a different device - my Nexus 7 tablet. Still no notifications.
Tried reinstalling, tried different app versions, tried everything I can find and think of. No. Notifications.
Do they even work for anyone else?
Another thread on the saga: https://www.reddit.com/r/amazfit/comments/61w4ga/most_notifications_not_coming_through_facebook
I might just offer "ad-free" for anyone that can actually help, throw a bounty out there and see if someone can help me. I usually end up asking the hard questions nobody can answer :fingers-crossed:

Probably you've tried this already but it's worth to repeat procedure.
After you paired the watch with your phone, you have to enable notifications in the app, choose witch notifications you want to allow/block and let the amazfit app to access notifications. Last part is usually under Android settings, security. Sounds complicated but it's good to have full control.
Notifications worsk perfectly for me.

Yep, that's the first thing I try - but I appreciate the reply/bump! I think I might throw that bounty out there (if legal to do so) - I'd throw $15 at this problem to get it fixed. Hopefully that's how the donate option works
I enabled notification access to Amazfit app in the Android settings. Under the "notifications" options in the app, I get a miles-long list of apps on the phone, but they are all under the option to "disallow app notifications" -- no apps appear at the top of the page under "Allow app notifications". Presumably the top section is for apps that have sent notifications.
I also "disable battery optimization" and allow contact access for the watch as well.
My phone is a Huawei Honor 5x (kiwi) running CM13 (20161223 nightly) - but also tried on the Nexus 7 (2013) tablet running stock OS, unrooted.

Each app on that list have a switch on the right to enable notifications and move it to the "Allow app notifications".
Sent from my LG-V940n using Tapatalk

Screenshots how should look like. Latest dev app does not have push notifications but has another tab. Of course, watch must be connected to the phone to be able to receive notifications. But that's obvious Btw, I didn't touch batter optimization.
Btw, Frys still has the watch on $30 off.
p.s.
Now I see that you're my neighbor

That was it!! Goddamn Chingrish... to me, it looked like that settings page was divided into two - apps that had sent notifications in the past, which I could turn off "allow notifications", and apps that hadn't sent notifications and I could "disallow" them from ever doing so. The Chingrish part is that they should be saying "Allowed" and "Disallowed" notifications... not "allow"/"disallow". It simply doesn't make sense to divide them solely by their switch setting... and since I had no intention of disallowing an app's notifications, I never tried switching ones from the bottom! Also doesn't make a lick of sense to disable them all by default - easily seems like it's malfunctioning. I just went through and switched everything up to "allowed" like it is in Android Wear by default.
Wellp, I got a SMS buzz on my wrist for the first time, and everything is awesome now.
Now I have a new problem...

Just sharing my experience. My notifications stopped working and I went through all the above to no avail. Finally I realised I must have accidentally turned on Silent Mode at some point. It may help to check on your watch that Silent Mode is OFF

Gmail doesn't push notifications to watch
Hi all,
I m experiencing this issue and I really cannot understand what is going wrong and why it does it...i recently purchased amazfit stratos English version and I was not very satisfied with the notifications capabilities..i could only see the first email and read it all way down but if a second mail arrived I could only see the gmail logo and a number( indicating the number of the mails that I have) ..but wasn't able to read each message...very frustrating...same for other apps...Viber and line messenger if I receive more than one message I can only read the last one....so I decide to go with the watchdroid app for the phone and assistant for the watch... everything is running smoothly now,I can even reply to messages (for some reason only sms messages not Viber or line) BUT I do NOT receive my mails from gmail...something that with the amazfit app I could...well I could not read them if they were more than one but the push service was working...with watchdroid gmail push notifications do not work....any help would be appreciated guys!
Thanks in advance,

Thanks for the interest of my application. It's my first application I hope you like, right now I'm solving some bugs and giving them new features.
They also helped me translate it into the Russian language so I hope I can post new updates in the future. But unfortunately I only program and in my spare time. So late in getting new improved versions.

Hey Lumatic,
I was wondering if you plan on making this app available on the IOS App Store? That would be incredible!!!!!

I was using Android Watch Assistant on my Lemfo Lemx and it was working great! However, the watch just got some sort of update and now it will not stay connected to my phone, a LG V40. It will constantly disconnect about every 5 seconds. It will stay connected if I open the app on my watch, and keep the screen on the watch from going blank. As soon as the screen turns off, or you start doing anything else on the watch, it disconnects from the phone. After it disconnects, the only way to get it to reconnect, is to re-open Watch Droid Assistant, and the process starts all over again. All power saving features on the watch are turned off. Right now I am using version 9.1. I have tried 4 other

I was able to resolve this. Lemfo added a task killer when they updated their firmware, and this was the cause of the disconnects.
