I have had my Omate Truesmart for about two weeks now and I have loved it. When I turned my watch on this morning the bluetooth refuses to turn on. It was working last night but this morning it won't stay on. I have tried from the notification bar and from the settings wireless and networks. Neither approach works. When I slide the toggle to on from settings it immediately jumps back to off.

Do you have recovery?
If you have recovery, wipe cache and dalvik cache and then try...
You could have same problems like many other.
If wiping won't to the job, it could be hardware issue, maybe to open it and check connections.
But contact Loki first...maybe he has better idea...

Loki suggested on G+ to try disabling Quick Boot, then rebooting.
It's in Settings>System>Accessibility
Yes, you have to turn off quick boot to recover bluetooth, or pull the battery or let the battery run all the way down. Otherwise it doesn't really reboot, and Bluetooth will still not work.

Just for reference. This did solve the problem. I am now back up and running. In regards to network access unavailable I had solved that with mine since I have it paired with Glass I had to enable bluetooth tethering. Then the error went away then the problem is that it always asked to connect and I had to manually disconnect it otherwise it would severely drain my battery.
I have also tried enabling Bluetooth tethering but still cannot connect. I don't seem to be able to connect with my laptop either. I can't send files at all. I might just have to be patient and wait for an update.
I am using the latest cm nightlies and Ubuntu 13.10 if it makes any difference.

Tethering is broken. At this time, with the poor base firmware Omate (and others like SimValley) is being given to work with. we get BT audio and not much else.

I have had Bluetooth tethering working on my stock omate and with the custom rom. I have it connected to my google glass as just a headset and with bluetooth data connection. I cannot get the my glass app to recognize it but I can get the internet sharing working over bluetooth.

That's the only tethering that works. Can't do it they other way (x201 > phone > internet) so it's still broken really.

I've heard that this watch and the TS is pretty much the same watch. I'm having trouble with connecting with BT with my HTC One XL. I tried connecting a BT headset to it and it paired and connected. When I tried my laptop and my phone, they pair, but immediately disconnect; or rather, they don't connect at all in the first place. Has anyone had, and resolved, this issue with the Omate?
The BT issues affect ALL x201 smartwatches. So if it gets fixed on any x201, this forum will go nuts with folks applying the fix.

It seems that Samsung Dive only works on my sgs2 when either the wifi or the network data mode is enabled on the device. What's worse is that if the "Wireless Networks / View Location in Maps" option is disabled, it will ask to be enabled while tracking the device.
Practically making Samsung Dive uesless.
Is there a fix for this? I've flashed a few ROMs but I'm back on stock, I never had this problem before flashing ROMs. Thanks.

I'm curious how you expect it to work without some kind of data connection.
Regarding your point about being asked for permission, if on KK5 at least, if you freeze the Network Location apk (com.google.android.location), the prompt does not appear and it does not seem to inhibit your ability to use GPS correctly.

Sorry if I made myself unclear, what I mean is that the user has to manually enable wifi or 3g to be able to use SD. So if the phone is lost, there's nobody there to enable 3g/wifi, so SD won't work.
You weren't unclear. How would you like it to communicate with the phone with no data connection?
oinkylicious said:

Before I flashed ROMs SD would activate my 3g (when it was already off), then activate my wireless networks / location option, ten activate my GPS, then find my device. But now all it does is sits there, trying to connect, until i manually enable wifi or 3g, which it will then ask me to enable my wireless netoworks / location, and then it doesn't do anyting.
OP, you make no sense. You didn't answer to oinkylicious's question: how can SD reach your phone if it can't connect to it? It's almost impossible, so yes, someone has to be there to enable data or wifi. It was always like this and it will always be like this with the current technology .
About manually activating the tracking system, I also have my doubts. I only tried this several months ago, but then it showed my location without asking me to enable tracking. I'm on CM7 now, so I can't test it.
Alternatives: theft aware can do the same thing (now quite good, but it works) via SMS. You just send the code to your phone, and it gives you the location.

You still haven't answered my question. Also, could you provide some proof that this works on the other phone with all forms of data turned off, as it intuiges me.
If it works on an older ROM, revert until "fixed". If it doesn't, use an app controlled via SMS.

Avast anti-theft is really nice. I'm using it also, but it's still beta, and has some serious bugs sometimes.
So back to your original question, I think we can call it BUSTED. There's no way for Samsung to activate data connection on your phone if it's turned off manually

I tried all of those combinations but neither worked. Took the cell to a VZW store and they replaced it. Everything is good with this one, so the old was just faulty. Are you guys using any screen protectors or cases?

When this happens, go to advanced Wifi settings and check your IP. Most likely you have a 169. address and no useful default gateway. This generally happens when DLNA IP option is enabled and your DHCP server isn't fast enough for the [bad] rom settings provided by HTC. If that's the case, the just disable that option and cycle Wifi.
im having a problem as well just got my dna yesterday and it seems when its asleep for a bit i awake it and then disconnects flashes to 4g connected back to my network but i have no activity at that moment then i have turn wifi off and on to get it back
i know its not my network no other problems with over 5 other devices and never had a problem with any phone for years
My girlfriend has this issue with her DNA. They replaced it with a brand new one, same issue. We have a wireless router that has 3 laptops, another phone, two tablets plus my friends phones and tablets when they come over, no issues for anyone. But the two DNA's we have tried, do.
Connects, and then it says it is connected but stops working after a short time. Shows that it is connected but anything that requires internet sits there spinning. Disable Wifi and it kicks over to 4G and emails and stuff starts flooding in. Go into Wifi settings and turn it back on, and it seems like it keeps turning itself on and off, like it is stuck in a loop.
Both DNA's, same exact issue. BOth stock, non-root, both have had hard resets, nothing seems to fix it. Some searching on Google says that the issue, while not common, it's all that un-common either. Seems to be an issue with the phone itself.

it really isn't a big deal. If you have to return it for any reason bricking it or reverting it to stock isn't a problem and in all the years I've been working with Android, out of tens of thousands of users that I've had exposure to, I've never once have i heard of a carrier denying warranty work because of a phone being modified. they're generally just not smart enough to even know how to check if they even care to check. The only thing that I've heard about is people walking into store and telling them that the phone has been modified. In that case they will use it against you. Anyway you're better off with a third party ROM and a better kernel for this phone.

I'm having the same problem but the DLNA option was already turned off by default. Wifi works right after a restart and then stops working a short time later. Once it stops working, I get a blank screen when I try to view the available wireless networks, even though this screen was populated with multiple networks previously. Frequently, I get a "Process com.android.settings isn't responding" message. I had these exact issues with my first DNA and Verizon sent me a replacement. Same issues with the replacement. Anyone else experiencing this?

Bluetooth also suddenly stopped working for me. And it is not possible to turn it on. To make things more interesting - I didn't install anything on my omate since I upgraded to TEST_RELEASE_Omate_2100_TrueSmart_20140314.zip on the day when my omate 8GB/1GB 2100 arrived more than a month ago. It worked fine all this time, and without any visible cause it just stopped today.
I wanted to tether to ipad to provide internet connection, while riding in a bus, and suddenly snap - bluetooth turned itself off. I tried restarting omate. I couldn't figure anything to get it back to work.

how to do a hard reset of omate, without voiding the warranty? Do I need to wait until battery runs out?
No, just turn off quickboot and power the watch down. When you turn it back on Bluetooth will probably reinitialize and work again. For a while.

Quickboot didn't knock it out. The defective TrueSmart MTK firmware and hardware combination cause all sorts of problems with using Bluetooth, including some that require a full power cycle reset. That is not possible with Quickboot enabled unless the battery runs down or is removed.

Glad to see your BT and TS are working fine now...
All el devices could be "fixed" by restarting it.
They are all using RAM and/or dalvik cache and that has to cleared sometimes...
Dalvik cache is a "place" where Android decompile apk files for quicker access, so when you wip dalvik cache from recovery you are clearing everything so system has to decompile apk files again and RAM is cleared also...
It's like fresh start and it "fix" many software issues that way...
If you have ADB tools and rooted device, you can use adb reboot from adb shell, no need to open your watch, lose warranty and pull battery out...

I've tried searching, but couldn't find anything (but I assume it exist somewhere). One of my biggest pet peeve about AT&T is how they code the phone to automatically connect to any AT&T wifi hotspot no matter what. This has caused me issues, especially when sitting at a light or driving pass a McDonald's, etc. Is there a mod to correct this? I don't want to disable complete automatic connection (i.e., home/work connection), but this auto-connect to AT&T irks me to no end.
it should be under wifi settings.
click on settings, wifi, then click the three dots on the top left of the phone, then advanced.
Assume you are stock (booloader locked, not rooted, etc.). If there is no option to "forget" the network; than you might be able to disable the associated process. Otherwise, you may be locked out from disabling this without root (which has often been the case on past devices).

Good to know. AT&T must have added it for this device, after getting complaints like the OP on previous devices! I know its been a problem on other devices; as I've experienced the same where the AT&T hotspot is close enough to connect, but too weak to actually transfer any data.
