Hi all,
Mabe you know Garmin Fenix outdoor GPS watch. It has Bluetooth 4 LE. In latest firmware 4.40, its posiible to use this watch like smartwatch (notifications etc). The only one problem is that it works only with Iphone. But i realized i can normally with no problems connect from my LG G2 kitkat android.
My question is, does anybody know, if its possible to make app for managing this smartwatch functions with andoid? I would like to code this app, but if here is anybody more experienced than me, please tell me if its possible or it isnt. Or maybe some hints where to start.
My idea is that if i have paired device, i can normally use android bluetooth api.

This is not relevant to Android Wear. Please consider moving the post to the general forums, or forums specific to this watch. I suspect you will have better success there.
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

Do you just need to "reconnect" the device or do you need to "pair" it again?
No idea about your other questions, some of them I don't understand (sorry).
You can also try the rom by booroondook which is the one I am using. Working very well for me.

Hi,
thanks by your reply.
I need reconnect it again.
I try that image also but happens the same.
i recently just purchased this unit.
KENWOOD DNX773S
http://www.kenwood.com/usa/car/navigation_multimedia/dnx773s/
I'm in the process of getting all of the kit together for the install and was wondering before i open the box and go through with it if anyone had any feedback on this H/U and how it works with AA and other andriod phone based features.
apparently, my galaxy S7 doesn't have the MHL protocol, so while i know i can always use any of the other features to get my phone screen to my head unit i'm always fond of having a hardwired connection just in case, so im also in the market for a new phone, if you guys/gals have any suggestions for a good phone that integrates well with this system i'm all ears.
any tips or hints is also greatly appreciated.
if interest is shown i'll be sure to do a full write up and review once i get this in and setup , the vehicle is a 2000 LX470...a nightmare of an install as it is, lol
Thanks!
As I could get a new car in the coming weeks/months I am starting to check every details.
The 6t doesn't have mirrorlink out of the box but can we have it thanks to root? A rom with this function?
Meanwhile I downloaded and installed from apkmirror the htc mirrorlink apk successfully, though no idea if it will work in real
Btw mirrorlink needs a specific hardware or it's just software?
I use android auto, but my car also supports mirrorlink. I haven't found anyway to get it working on this OP6T.
Looking for same solution here.

It looks like Omnirom has it, please try this rom and tell us if it works
Yesterday I tried android auto on my future car, I also added aa phenotype and aa mirror to mimick mirrorlink and it worked!!
Just like miracast works with TVs, everything on my 6t screen is mirrored on the c3 aircross screen and they can be touch controlled from there
I don't know if the 6t screen has to be On all the time or not though
You have links and steps to reproduce your success? Actually, I was able to install AA Mirror and AA Phenom and got AA Mirror to show up in the Android main menu and it works.
But, there are still audio/notification issues while connected via USB. Hoping to resolve this by bypassing this crappy Android Auto. Bought a car and looked specifically for this feature, only to have Google who apparently can't make notifcations work while connected via USB cable the past 5 months. Unreal.
Hence, why I'm trying to find a Mirror Link that runs on Android on the OnePlus 6T, custom Rom whatever...to try and get it working. Thx

Couldn't get it to boot...well, it did boot. But, not wifi, no VZW, kept flashing apps closure on the main screen. Soo....gave up on that idea.
I have tried the latest version of Omnirom and there is no mirrorlink link support so have gone back to stock. I wouldn't even mind going back to an older ROM just to get mirrorlink

Tried it too in the last weekend, no mirrorlink.
I am gonna switch to an S10 soon, at least it will have both AA and mirrorlink.
Dunno why we can't do voice calls with whatsapp or listen to a voice message under AA
I don't know how true, however T-Mobile support states that "Mirror screen on car display" works:
https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-38933
I think the T-Mobile site is misleading in that the phone won't mirror anything that isn't in android auto and the bit about Chromecast is about displays not car head units.
That being said aa mirror and aa phenotype changer works with android auto 4.7 and lower as well as android Q. AA browser didn't work in 10/4.7 but web view auto did. Car stream 2.04 works in 10 and 4.7 as well. These look better if you can get the new ui. Working.

How did you make it work? What is aa phenotype and aa mirror? Android auto does work on the C3, why bother using MirrorLink? I try to get it to work on a Peugeot 208 because it has no Android Auto for a weird reason...
