[Q] Gear Fit Reconnect after connection lost - Samsung Gear Fit

Hi,
I am running S3 (Omni ROM) and Gear Fit (1.55 manager and related firmware).
When I left the room without phone the connection gets lost. When I return it will not automatically re-established. Do you have an idea?
I had same issue with 1.50 manager.
On my last ROM (Samsung Stock) it was reconnecting without problems.

How did you manage it working on the s3 mini? I'm on 4.4, but gear fit manager always closing at the beginning...

You can use tasker to help fix this. There is a tutorial on here somewhere. Basically, set up tasker to automatically turn your BT off and back on again when ever the gear fit disconnects. Works great on my Nexus 5

Hi mooondark. Can you explain more about this? I tried with llama but it not work because I can only turn off the bluetooth and the bluetooth option is not show up to add as an other action. Thank you!

i did this :
ACTION 1: when gear fit disconnects put a variable =1 and deactivate bt
ACTION 2: when that variable ==1, activate bt and put variable to 0
it works

Compatibility is lost with custom roms. Either reload a stock samsung rom or use Tasker like this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2769703
There are complaints that Tasker is a paid app. I bought it to handle this exact same work around. I then bought a Samsung phone so no longer needed the bt reconnect feature. However, if you seriously want your Gear Fit to work for you, Tasker can make it do almost anything.
I have my own security task that will lock the phone should it loose connection with my GF. I can also reboot my phone from the GF should it go wonky.
Well worth the money, if you're serious.

So you're a good guy

Thank you for the instruction.
I found another app call Trigger and it much more easier to use (and of course it free). If you just want to use an app to reconnect with Gear Fit so it's really ok.

@alexxio and moondark
action1: variable 1 when GF has disconnected and BT off,
action 2: if variable=1 turn BT on, with this action do you turn BT on directly again., because variable is now 1
Is your BT really off if GF is away?

---

Action1: if GF Disconnects , set variable=1 and set bluetooth off
Action2: if variable=1, set bluetooth on and set variable=0
The way you wrote won't work because you put the bt off in the condition
