Bluetooth stopped working.... - Ornate TrueSmart

Whenever I now try and switch bluetooth on it instantly snaps the button back to the off position, I have tried turning it on in loads of different ways and it just won't come back on...
It was working fine till yesterday, I installed Swapp Link app and let it manage the BT connection and now it won't switch on... I have remove / reinstalled the app and restarted phone etc, nothing has fixed it.. any ideas? ;(

Do you have any app like Liama or similar?
Maybe that app has rule to switch your BT?
If you don't have it, try to restart TS and wipe both cache from recovery (if you have it)

nope nothing like that, I even disabled "2x battery" battery saving app and that's not helped either :S not sure why it suddenly just stopped as I haven't add any software onto it....

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.
it happened exactly 6 hours ago. About the time when you made your post.

I've had this happen on my regular phone. A hard reset has always fixed it.

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...

[Solved] Wifi crashes every 10-15 sec

My wifi was alright with original 2.3.3 gingerbread. But after flashing to 4.0.2.A.0.42 it started to crash and reconnect every 10-15 sec. I thought that problem is with my router, tried to reset it, but the same problem.Connected with my Huawei u8650 and it worked fine. So i understood, that problem is with phones wifi. I searched the interned and all xda forum, but find nothing. So i ask for help.
Thanks.
Ensure you clear cache dalvik cache, data and full reset before flashing.
Suggest you wipe all user data, caches, dalvik indeed and then see if it happens again.
If it repeats then SE firmwares do have a history of having wifi problems, especially the 2.3.3 ones of 3.x.x..
Is there an echo on here?
+ Wifi fine on 2.3.4... OP is on .42 so no issue.
Could be wifi scan intervale

NO - You don't need to do that. WiFi will reconnect and stay connected perfectly well if setting is sleep with screen off. Or bye-bye battery life.
Their problems are more likely due to the way they updated their firmware. i.e. without a FULL reset and clearing data/cache (both caches). Or coming from a custom ROM or kernel. Or sh*te router.

i tried that too, but as i said, it also happens with the screen on, like talking via gTalk and the wifi disconnects and reconnects, when i bought the phone was in 2.3.3 and wifi worked great, even better than the iPod,so, this issue appeared with the .42 (2.3.4) update.
just installed the .62 update, i still have the Wifi Issues =/!
Just updated to .62 firmware, and i'm still having the wifi issue =/
How? Did you clear caches, full reset?
No, i updated using PC companion,I have the phone stock because the warranty

Suggest you do a full factory data reset and then update.
How many Wifi APs have you tried?

FoxFi doesn't worked after 7/11 Update

Everything turns on fine.The hot spot starts transmitting fine but none of my device can actually connect to it. tried with the tablet, laptop, ps3 and they wont connect even though the phone is actually transmitting signal because i can see the ssid but it wont connect any help thank you in advanced.

stock. only thing I did after the update was hold down the power button and did a forced restart.
Yeah, I'm also using the latest update, and I haven't had any problems. I'm using the connection to write this post now.
I'd try uninstalling and reinstalling the app, rebooting the phone in between. That's really all I can think of, assuming it was working before.
You can probably find the older version of the app somewhere - if you're still having problems, you could try that as a fallback.

Problem with Bluetooth

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.

I saw a video from Cnet with the Omate and that BT icon at the top of the screen showed that it was connected... Can the TS's the people on XDA at least connect to their phones through BT or is that an on & off thing for all of these watches? Ugh.. I wish I was proficient at programming and other things so that I could help out with designing ways to improve on these smartwatches...

[Q] on stock mj9 boot loader - is there a GPS fix?

So my GPS only works while my screen is turned off and locked.
Anybody else having the same issue?
Sadly I am on a locked boot loader and pretty sure my warranty is gone due to age of phone...
Anybody know of a fix? This issue remains persistent through flashing all ROMs nebulous, stock, etc (bootstrapped). I can't navigate at all these days BC it just will drop as soon as I turn the screen on! Then I have to turn the screen back off/lock and hope it syncs and starts telling me turn by turns again.
Uuugh frustration with a locked boot loader!

Try uninstalling maps and clearing maps data via app manager and running the stock version. If that works you can let it update again and it will work.

Vibration stopped working

Not that it was ever strong, but my vibration completely stopped working today. It locked up for a minute or so when I swiped away a notification, then came up with a message that Android Wear had to be closed. Since then, no vibration. Not when I pull down from the top to mute or turn it on, never.
So far I have:
unpair/repair
restarted
Restore to factory settings
cleared data from the Wear app
deleted all wear apps
uninstalled and resinstalled wear app
I'm out of ideas. I'm thinking that something is physically broken. Any ideas?

So "Restore to factory settings" was performed on the watch. I guess I see.
I had this happen to me today at work. I would receive texts and the watch wasn't vibrating. As soon as I restarted the watch everything was working fine again.
No matter what, I can never stay away from android for long.

Same problem here, since this morning :'(
did you find something to do ?
Nope, it did start working again after a few days and it continues to go off and on for a day or more at a time. I need to call and get an rma.
the same problem, after using 1 day, the vibration doesn't work anymore and I can't find any solutions.
It seems that this isn't a hardware problem
Same problem
My watch is also no longer vibrating on notifications. Let me know if there is a solution to this.

It literally just started working again o to its own? I'm having this same issue on two different watches. Thought it was my Moto 360 since I just got it but it appears to be happening on my LG G Watch that I've had since launch with no issue also. No clue how or why this started but kinda defeats a major purpose of the having the watch...
Positive Vibrations
Yup. One day it magically started again and stayed working.
