Has anyone had any luck getting a fitbit to sync with our phones? My wife purchased one and our phones can see it but wont connect. I have tried multiple sense roms and CM10.1.
Try one of the 4.3 ROM's. CM Black and Carbon comes to mind. The Flex will only sync with Bluetooth Low Energy bluetooth stacks(the regular 4.0 version won't work). 4.3 has BLE by default but I myself haven't flashed any ROM's yet and am waiting for SlimBean to get updated to see if it will work.

Google have acknowledged an issue with the current audio (both phone and media) over Bluetooth and say a fix will be coming in the 4.2.2 update

But does this apply to HOX+? Since I think most ROM are running on some 4.1 base. I think there is an unofficial CM 10.1 for HOX+ international? But us AT&T and Telus users have had BT issues with our 4.1 based ROMS.
And even if there is a google related fix coming in 4.2.2, I'm not sure if it will be rolled into all the 4.1 ROMs.

No, it doesn't apply to the HOX+ problem. The BT problem that they will fix was introduced with 4.2 on all Nexus devices especially the N7 and Gnex. I cannot pair my N7 with my BT portable speakers anymore. it is totally broken. Same on my old GNex.

Ok. That's what I thought. Confusing OP post.
I'm not sure if I have pairing problems. But my HOX+ does not auto-connect to my Jabra Cruiser 2 BT speakerphone. I always need to manually connect with the HOX+. My fiance's iPhone 4s reconnects every time without problem to the Jabra. And my old Moto BT headset reconnects with HOX+ no problem. So i'm not sure where the issue lies...

Yes it does apply to the HOX+ but only those running the custom roms I.E those based on 4.2 which is why i mentioned 4.2 in the body text.
Ill change the title to reduce the confusion
EDIT - cant change the title right now

theres rumour and gossip that 4.2.2 is out in teh wild but we have to wait for it to either hit HTC's upgrade cycle or the code release for cutom roms depending on what you run on your phone
I don't have enough posts to query the development forums, but can anyone confirm whether or not they've gotten bluetooth smart/4.0 BLE working with any of the available 4.3 based roms?
I've been holding out on buying a Bluetooth HRM for a long time, now (actually bought this phone BECAUSE it advertised bluetooth 4.0 as a feature....), and may be willing to lose touchwiz to use one, early.
Yes, I'm aware legacy bluetooth HRM's are available, but I know myself well enough to know I won't remember to charge it every day or two.
Thank you very much, in advance.

I really want to know the answer to this also.
I got an email from Runtastic July 31 claiming the following:
"
Runtastic Bluetooth Smart Combo Heart Rate Monitor
NEW - Compatible with all new Smaprtphones with Android 4.3. and
Samsung Galaxy S3 mini, S4, Note 2.
+ Compatible with iPhone 4S & 5
+ Low battery consumption

activities (e.g. treadmill, ...)
+ Heart rate data transmission
+ Bluetooth Smart technology
+ Washable soft chest strap
[Buy Now]
"
I said, "Wait.... What!?" It seems like I've been waiting for this for years at this point. I wanted an H7, not an old zephyr hxm, but it hasn't been compatible. Now suddenly they claim the runtastic model works on the Note 2? There's no official 4.3, is there?? I searched these forums, best I could find was CM 10.2 derived ROMS, but they all say it includes CM's bug list--but I couldn't find that anywhere either. All I can figure is this was a misprint.
I'm with you, I care about this also, but I don't think enough people do.

I finally sucked it up and bought the legacy zephyr HRM.
It cost $15 more than the BT-LE version, and the battery life is crap, but I'm happy and endomondo seems a LOT more accurate, now.
This phone is dumb. Google needs to get their crap together, or put a leash on their representative manufacturers advertising unusable phone features.

It works great on any of the TW based ROMs, but as far as the 4.3 based ones, it is getting closer. Tried a few of the nightlies since a couple of weeks ago and my Fitbit finally shows up in CM10.2, but still won't pair. This is one of the few things keeping me from running CM10.2 full-time.
I keep flashing a nightly every few days just to check progress, but end up going back to my nandroid TW backup.
Does this work with CM 10.2 and/or CM11 nowadays? I'm thinking of buying a Fitbit and was wondering if it will sync with the phone.

I can confirm that the Zephyr HxM Smart does in fact work on 4.3 TW ROMs. Specifically RunDouble and Runtastic on Sophisticated ROM 2.5.
For Pollux Windy SGP311, It has been reported in a variety of threads that the CM11 nightly builds have broken GPs since end of May. I have been a fan of Cynaogen mod, I have moved to Omnirom which has a working GPS.
Ye i used to be fan too, used to be. Not anymore.
CM support also suck bad, i have no regrets changing to Omni :good:.
I have to say, my experience of custom ROM support for this device (311) has put me off using them in future.
Depending on which custom ROM you choose, there are problems with GPS or sound stutter or HDMI or all & more
I've gone back to rooted stock Sony - it's so nice that everything just works
Condidering that they broke handsfree bluetooth connection with most big car manufacturers in 2013 on a mainstream device like the nexus 4 and never fixed it i think it is save to say that they aren't keen on bugfixing once newer devices are out. I have moved on to other roms long since.
Hey All,
I've tried about every LP AOSP Rom for the Verizon VS985 variant of the G3 and think I've narrowed down the culprit. First let me explain the issue. The Amazon Music App won't stream music, giving exception 181. I've chatted with amazon tech support and now here I am. It works fine with the stock ROM and Jasmine. It also works with Fusion 5.0 and Slim Alpha - I believe both of these to be Slip based. But for the life of me, I can't get it to work with any CM based ROM including but not limited to Illusion, Vanir, Fusion 5.1... more than I'd like to admit.
Anyone know how to fix this issue so I'm not so limited? I don't need many, just one good daily driver. After gong to AOSP, back to stock is so slow.
Thanks,
bagz
Why/background if you are interested:
I have been using the LG G3 for about a year and my wife dropped hers in the water so I'm getting the note up and running, it got me thinking about updating from CM10.1.3 to 11 or 12. I didn't see anything great from 11 to 12.1 on my G3, couple lock screen options etc simple stuff, however I have to cycle the data toggle every so often to get data working, the loss of bluetooth was a deal breaker and required 12.1, but I digress.
The heart of the question:
on CM's website I see there is a snapshot (not going for nightly, but, also it's not stable) for both 11 and 12. In your opinion what do you think about cm11 or cm 12.1 on the note 2. The snapshot worked pretty well on the G3. Are they stable enough for you? worth it? Many benefits? Blown out of the water? Side notes - I won't use full screen casting (I have an android box), I will use pandora/etc music apps with the chromecast option to our stereo some mornings, I don't care how my lock screen looks or functions (I turned them off on my G3).
Thoughts about security and oudated apps:
[/U] Issues I foresee if I stay on cm10 - security - stagefright exploit, if apps are changed and I don't update my apps and errors occur or some stuff might get outdated and just stop working and require an update to use it, on that note I see my navionics app stopped working and won't load/initialize. My LG G3 kept loosing bluetooth in Pandora and Soundcloud after they were updated, I fixed it by moving to cm12.1. I turned off auto update to avoid this on the note 2 with apps
What baseband is needed?
I never did an OTA update when I got it. I rooted the note 2 the day I got it, but I can't remember what build it was on, I'm on baseband VRAMC3. Lastly I had to update the oem software on the LG to get a newer baseband for cm12.1. TWRP wouldn't even flash cm12 until I updated. Do I need to do anything similar for the note 2, or can I flash from 10 to 12? [/B

I honestly got out of using the AOSP ROMs for my Note since I noticed some issues with camera quality not being as good as the stock. it wasn't horrible. but I would see some glitches with video and I could just see the image caliber was not as good as a touchwiz ROM.
