ASUSzenwatch and IPhone help! - Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

First time poster and hoping someone with a zen watch and a iPhone can help me
My watch is paired and working fine with my phone I just can't get emails to appear on the watch and I would like to be able to reply to them as well from the watch.
I understand I can't send texts from the watch and that's fine.
I have turned on the rich email thing under Google app and I have connected my live.ca account to my google but I'm still unable to get them to the watch. If anyone knows if there is a way or if it's just impossible that would be great help.
Thank you!

Question for Nexus One Owners: Blue&Me?

If anyone knows weather or not Nexus One (or even Android) fully supports Fiats Blue&Me system it would be great to get a reply.
We've been trying to find out for awhile but very limited on info.
Blue&Me is one of the best (if not the best) Voice/Text-To-Voice systems built into Fiat cars, and more car makers are signing up to it, so if anyone's able to test weather or not the SMS Reader & Voice calls (call + hang up) works with Blue&Me it would be brilliant.
I wouldn't count on it working. Android barely has file sending/receiving over bluetooth.
I'm not sure how tech savvy you are... If you are not already aware of it you should try and find which Bluetooth profiles are needed and which ones the N1 supports. That should be a good indication as to whether it will work or not.

it supports phonebook sync, a2dp, handsfree, surely that's all it needs? but do they work well together?

Sounds like the calling would work, but weather SMS Reader function would work im not sure, seems only sony ericson have it pinned at the moment, WM6.5 doesnt, which i find a screw job considering Blue&Me is a Windows Mobile device.
I'm trying to get hold of a friend with an android phone, maybe i'll get a hint from that as to what works or not.
If anyone else can test it with a nexus one.. would be great

Nice & sunny today....
All works except SMS Reader.
HTC Desire.
From what I recall, it needs the device to send sms over bluetooth. From all the speech to text, text to speech apps out there and the fact its based on open source kernel, I live in hope that someone will fix it ;-)
You don't need Blue&Me to have your SMS read - just use Tasker (http://tasker.dinglisch.net/).

Hi 8eaker,
I've been trying to get my Desire to talk with my Alfa 159's Blue&Me+Nav system but no luck so far.
The phone keeps saying that the [bluetooth] connection is broken.
My car was last updated 3-4 months ago.
Did you get a more recent update maybe?
What make is your car?
Thanks!

The weather shouldn't affect the N1's bluetooth.
How many Voice/Text-to-Voice systems are built into Fiat cars?
Everything except SMS reader work fine on a Fiat 500. No better or worse than my g1 was.
hey befunged would you please let me know if u got ur phone music playing through the car speakers, frankly i dont need the SMS reader, and i cant seem to get to work, the 500 sees my N1 as a handsfree as far as its concerned. but i would love more of it...please help really appreciate it.
I have a Fiat Punto EVO with Blue&Me and I am unable to get my Nexus ONE to stay paired.
I got it paired once and it worked briefly but than lost connection after several seconds.
Any have any ideas as I just bought the car expecting it to work with my phone
Blue and me just looks like a headset to the phone. You can't stream music over bluetooth. The limitation is with blue and me, not android.
You'd think fiat could provide an update but since they can't even display mp3 song names properly I wouldn't hold my breath

(Idea) @Home App for Android

I have this awesome idea for an Application.
When I come home at the end of the day, I tend to plug in my phone and get on my computer, or laptop. Who doesn't?
Now think, when you get a text, you have to pick your phone up and answer it with the touch screen, which can get real old when you've been doing that all day. Why not answer it on your computer screen just like an instant message?
This app does that - SMS2PC
This app works great and is definitely worth the money. It pulls up a notification saying I got a text, I can pull up the thread and respond from my pc screen. Start threads.. all that.
But this app does not allow me to answer calls, which would be even more awesome.
What I would like to see, if not already existent, is an Application for my phone as well as computer that is able to do both. Answer calls and sms, as well as send calls and sms.
It'd be so nice to sit my phone down, or on the charger, and just not worry about it. When I get a call, it pulls up on my computer just like SMS2PC but I can answer the call with my headset or webcam..
Does anyone know of an app like this?
Also if not, if any developers would be willing to do something like this, I would be more than willing to donate to the cause.
Thanks,
Asher
Bump, anyone have any ideas on this subject?
Not phones but DesktopSMS by the maker of Clockworkmod seems to work pretty well.

I know MyPhoneExplorer can answer calls, but I'm not sure about the webcam part...
I also don't know it the sound will pass through the PC or that you still have to use the phone, would be a great function though!
doesnt htc sync answer calls?
EDIT:if you have a htc that is...
and if you connect your phone to your pc via bluetooth im pretty sure you can answer calls too.

I have a HTC, HD2 to be precise.
My HD2 has WM stock, I flashed it to Android (CM7 rom).
I can't use HTC Sync, MyPhoneExplorer is quite the same, can connect via WiFi, USB or Bluetooth.
I'm not sure if HTC Sync can answer calls, never used it.

S4 i9505 & BMW F30 - E-Mail

Hi All
Just got upgraded to an S4 i9505 for my work phone and I'm happy to have an Android device over the Blackberry I had before.
My phone is already rooted and setup to the way I like it.
The FEAR I had came true when pairing the phone with my car. I have a F30 BMW with extended Bluetooth option, which enables you to have like a mobile office on the iDrive.
With the Blackberry I was able to :
1. See all my Contacts
2. See my SMS/Text messages
3. Able to play music via Bluetooth
4. Able to read e-mails, both my exchange and gmail
With the Samsung S4 I can do all of the the above but can't read my e-mails anymore. This feature are very handy since I drive allot for work and having the iDrive option to read the e-mail back to you helps allot to keep up with whats going on at work.
Have searched via google, XDA and some BMW forums, but have not yet seen an option that works. It appears that it's an android issue with regards to MAP (Message Access Profile) not working the same way in Android as it does with Blackberry.
My phone is running KK 4.4.2 Stock ROM, my car has been updated to the latest Bluetooth software. Do anyone know of any third party App or xposed type framework solution to get the working?
Many thanks for any suggestions in advance.
Any help or suggestions?
Nope but nice car btw

U10 Uwatch bluetooth problem - assist req

Another U series watch from Uwatch. Supposed to be upgrade from U8. Seems to use same software/apk.
Watch was working fine initially after installing the apk (first day)...could make and receive calls...notifications...
phonebook, camera never worked with my galaxy note 2
Now, everytime the watch connects via bluetooth, it connects at first (with apk connected notification), but then I see the goodbye screen (for a split second), and the screen goes dark...I then push button to "wake" watch and it goes thru the bluetooth connection process again...and disconnects. Seems like once the watch connects and sees the apk, the watch does a mini reboot (not like full powercycle where you get the sounds of the shutdown and restart).
If I connect the watch without the apk, it doesn't do this. If I uninstall and reinstall the apk, this happens again. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance for any help!
Figured it out myself...with help of forums on the U8Pro.
Figured since the interfaces and watches are very similar...went to the U8Pro forum.
Unistalled the apk that the U10 has you install. Tried installing the bt.smartwatch (by rwatch) found on google play. Now works again. Still limited functions...but at least the notifications and receiving calls part works! Overall happy if this continues working for the price of about $55

Can you please tell me where these forums are ? i can't seem to find the website of this company.
Also do you have the USB drivers for the PC? I just got one and i'm actually satisfied with it for the price i paid.

You may want to try the U10 apk from the download ftp site. I've posted this to another U10 forum, "U10 U Watch Review - not a bad smartwatch". It's the latest version 7.1.3 of the apk and gives you the most features including camera with real time preview on watch screen - this feature is quite rare with other similar apps.
Hello. Could you give the link please. Thank you.

Do you have a firmware for U10 that support Traditional Chinese (not Simplified Chinese) and English ?
If so, please post the link.
Many thanks in advance for your help.

Best Gearbest Bluetooth smart watch

Hi
I have just sent the U18 watch back to gearbest because the bluetooth was terrible!
It was random, I had so much trouble paring the watch and phone together, and when i finally did it would work any further away from the phone than about 3 inches!
So now I have a credit with Gearbest and would like some idea's of what this community thinks would be the best for me to get?
I want bluetooth to my phone.I dont need it to have a a sim card.I would like to be able to send and receive text messages, and to receive emails or email notifications. GPs would be nice but not a must.
Facebook notifications would be good also.Then all the usual other things such as the media player and fitness things.
Ive been looking at a ZGPAX S8 & a no1 D5, but open to suggestions. The credit i have to spend is approx $120 usd.
Your advice would be appreciated.
Greg
