[Q] fitbit Charge HR call notifications. - Huawei Ascend Mate 2

New owner of both an Ascend Mate 2 and fitbit Charge HR. I love both of them so far. The fitbit supports call notifications on the charge, it displays the caller and vibrates when call is received. I have successfully set this up and it works, but when phone goes to sleep, that communication is broken. There is a "background sync" option which is turned on, which should allow this communication link to stay alive but it is not. Just curious if anyone else has seen this or found a solution? Thanks!

In settings there should be a setting for "protected apps". You can choose which apps are allowed to run in the background when the screen is off. Have you tried to add the background sync to "protected"?

Fitbit Charge HR call notification on Huawei Asend Mate 2
Sorry if this isn't the place to ask this question. Newbie. I can not seem to configure my Asend Mate 2 to pickup phone notifications on my Fitbit charge HR. I believe I have followed the proper directions on the Fitbit app. Please help if you can. Thanks.

No push notifications in sleep mode

Hi everybody.
I just bought a Samsung S3 but I have a problem..
Every time I put my phone in standby, after 5-10 minutes the phone stops getting push notifications (fb, whatsup). I need to turn it on and after that everything's fine..
I tried do update to android revolution hd 17.1 but I still get this problem..
I've already tried to set Wi-Fi to always off, checked all notification setting but to no avail..
Is there a way to receive internet messages without turning on the phone every 5 minutes?

Their is a refresh setting of almost every internet app, try to change those. And check whether Do Not Disturb option in the notification panel is not on.
Hit Thanks if this helped.
Disable smart alert in 'motion' and that should fix it
Especially if you have a broken/malfunctioning proximity sensor

No I didn't.
I even did a hard reset 2 days ago. The only apps I have right now are whatapp and fb messanger
I just tried to uncheck "smart alert" but the problem persists.
Okay wait, when you say 'standby mode', you just mean you're locking it, right?
Assuming that the answer to my previous question is 'yes', tell me, when you turn your screen back on do you get a little notification on the bottom of the screen that says "You are now connected to (whatever your WiFi is called)" ?
He still doesn't receive texts I believe so this is not having the WiFi set to turn off at lock

My issue only occurs when in 3G. It seem the phone disconnects from 3g line when in deep sleep.
I've already tried to use different sims of different operators getting the same behaviour
If I connect my s3 to a wifi spot it always gets notifications instantly

[Q] Receiving Notifications While Screen is Off?

I can't seem to figure this one out. I get Words With Friends notifications as soon as I turn the screen on, but not while it's off. The app is on the so-called protected list. Any tips> Thanks

Lol.. I was just trying to figure out the same problem with whatsapp a while ago. Chose keep WiFi on when screen off and another option not so common is under mobile network, there's an option to always keep mobile data on. It's unchecked by default. Check that.
Those were already checked on mine.
Don't know if you already solved your problem, but I use Metro Notifications (the Lite or Free version - sorry, can't post links yet) from the Play Store. It turns the screen on and pops up a thin strip of notification. If I'm not at the phone to see it, the next time I turn it on, the strips are still there to swipe thru.
It was a little irritating at first, as just about everything from the noti panel popped up, but you can easily go thru and check on/off only the apps that you want to see. I did try the devs other app which was similar (more Windows phone style) but stuck with Metro in the end.
HTH,
Mike
Same for me. Go sms is checked in the protected apes list but I get notifications only part of the time.
What power profile are you using?
I also had this issue with kakaotalk and yahoo mail, missing notifications while phone's being charged overnight. I fixed it(I think) by not using both battery saving modes, smart and endurance, and checked all apps in protected apps setting.
Edit-also stopped using smartcover flipcase.

Clocks give hourly alarms

I'm just posting this in case others run into this same problem.
My watch was buzzing on the hour even though my current watch face didn't even have an option for that feature. Previously I had loaded the clock face "Kokoclock Sun&Moon". Pretty slick watch face but the time was too small to read easily. I deselected it almost immediately and forgot about it. Later I noticed I was getting hourly vibrations and my Fit and it me a long time to trace it back to the Kokoclock. Even though it wasn't currently selected it left the hourly alarm ON. I reselected Kokoclock, removed the Hourly Alarm option and the hourly vibrations disappeared. Others may catch on faster but this is just a heads up.
Hi. Uninstall from your phone the app koko clock. And fixed!

Strangely mine continued to vibrate hourly even after I had uninstalled kokoclock. Only after I reinstalled it and reset hourly alarm did I get it to stop.
From my Note 4 via Tapatalk Pro.
Hi there,
reading about this problem gives me hope that the kokoclock will work as I need it to be. Maybe you can tell me.
I'm thinking about getting the Samsung gear fit or any other smart watch that will let me do the following:
-Give me an hourly vibration signal (like the kokoclock) but without a phone connected.
I just returned a sony SM2. There was an hourly vibration app, but the problem was, that the phone had to be connected (via bluetooth) for the watch to give the hourly vibration signal. The app was actually running on the phone and the phone gave the hourly signal to the watch. The problem is that I don't want my phone with me while I'm doing sports but I still want the hourly vibration. So reading about your problem makes me think that the kokoclock was installed on your watch and even when removed from the phone still worked fine.
Am I asuming right? Does anybody know if the watch will do what I want or do you know any other watch that will?
Thank you so much and best regards!

Phone Profiles Plus

Hi all,
I just wanted to share an app I've been using for quite a while and I think it's great and might be useful for some.
It's called Phone Profiles Plus, it allows you to set sound profiles based on time of day, location, connected devices, connected to WiFi or Bluetooth and also when connected to a charger, you can also have it launch apps based on what it's connected to.
Example 1: When I got to the gym and connect my Bluetooth headphones, it will automatically launch 2 apps for me, Google Play Music and my workout app (but doesn't close them when disconnected, unless I didn't figure how)
Example 2: When I connect my phone anytime between 11pm and 8am to the charger, it will set all sounds to silent and then revert back to the previous profile once I take the phone of the charger.
Example 3: If I go the the movies (I usually go to the same 2 theaters) my phone will automatically change to vibrate based on the location.
Anyway I thought I would just share.
Phone Profiles Plus at Google Play Store
Yes, it's great but unfortunately has no good help file. For example I totally cannot figure out what 'shared profile' is. And why bluetooth is constantly switching on when nothing is triggering it and there is absolutely nothing on the log file.
I just installed this app and it seems awesome. I, too, am having some small configuration issues and was looking for a subreddit, user forum, wiki, or some other place where users could help each other. Does anyone know if this exists?
I'm using the app without events until I get the profiles working like I need. I want all notifications off at night (Sleep profile) except for my ringer and alarm. I enabled the "Unlink Ringer and Notification Volumes", set notification volume to 0, Ringer to 1, but I can still hear all of my notifications. Am I missing some other setting somewhere?
Thanks for any light anyone can shed on this!
I would try to set the system sounds to 0, silent sound notifications, 1 ringtones, but silent sound and ring only for those who have a ringing tone assigned, the alarm clock works, and other announcements are quiet. It works fine for me.
This app is surely great, I have one problem: my home and my work places are very close to each other and there is only one mobile cell that covers both my home and my work. There are around 10 totally different cells for home and 10 other cells for work but this only one common cell that is in use in both home and work areas is spoiling the whole profile change process because my profiles are changing based on mobile cells. It would be very easy if my GPS sensor was enabled at all times but it is not and don’t want to be enabled constantly. Any advice of how to solve this problem without GPS enabled will be greatly appreciated! My phone is Samsung Galaxy S9+ and it is rooted with Magisk.
I like this app, but I am having similar issues here. Bluetooth activates/deactivates unexpectedly. Events sometime trigger unexpectedly. Can't find support.

I'm using this app too and potentially it should be great, however I cant get events working as they should. Finding some sort of support would be handy.

What issues are you having with getting your events to work? Are they activated? Did you set priorities for them?

Thanks for your response. My events sometimes don't activate and you are correct, it could be to do with the priorities which I didn't pay too much attention to before. I thought as long as the active parameters were met the event would activate the profile. For example I initially had my home profile activated by the area then I tried mobile cell censor, I also set this to be active between 7AM and 2300. I had a 'night' event from 2300 till 7AM which only seemed to activate when I restarted events. I had a work event which should have activated on the area where I work but wasn't. Even when I tried manual activation it wasnt changing. Yesterday I cancelled the time activation on the 'at home' event and left the times on the 'night' event and gave a higher priority to the 'night' event and this seemed to work last night, but I have previously had things working for one activation before then it doesn't again, so we will see. Also I have switched to 'order events by priority' rather than start order, so will see how that works over the next day or so when I am back at work.

I found using the priorities helps a lot with event, here's some examples of events that I have setup and their priorities.
Event name: Work (activated by time: Mon to Fri, 8am to 6pm) / Priority: P6
Event name: Car (activated by Bluetooth connection to my car) / Priority: P8
Event name: Bedtime (activated by time and if phone is charging: 7 days, 11pm to 7am and phone must be also be charging to launch event / Priority: P7
So here is where setting Priorities is important:
Let's say it's 11:30pm and I'm home and put my phone on the charger, my Bedtime event will activate which switches my Profile to the DND that I set up.
But if it's 11:30pm and I go into my car and connect my phone to Android Auto (USB cable) or to the car charger, my Car event will launch and not my Bedtime event.
My Car event is set to P8 and Bedtime is set to P7, so the Car event takes priority over the Bedtime event.
I've been using Phone Profiles Plus for a few years now and have about 10 events setup.
If you have questions, I'll be glad to try and help, I learned how to use it by trial and error.

Thanks for your help. What I have done seems to have things working now though there can be a delay of about 20 minutes at times before a profile is switched, have you found that to be the case too?
What switch do you use for your 'order events by...'? Does this matter?
I did delete the car profile as it wasn't activating at all now but I'm going to create it again and try it now other things seem to be working.
Thanks

I am using redmi note 7 now, I used the app b4 on redmi Note 4 and it was perfect, when I changed to note 7, I took the saved profiles with me and granted every possible permission to it, however when I change profiles and there is a brightness change within the new assigned profile, the screen dims to the lowest brightness after few seconds of activating the profile... Everything else works perfect.. Only the brightness issue.. Any help?
Hi,
I started using Phone Profiles Plus as a replacement of Llama. Unfortunately it doesn't detect connected cell unless I press RE-SCAN button. Is it related to specific phone model (I have Xiaomi Mi Max 3)?
VIP or Starred contacts
I've been using this app for quite a while now and I have a good setup that's been working great. However there is one thing I can't for the life of me figure out. I have certain numbers (VIP or starred contacts) to allow to sound even when it's on silent (zero volume).
Any ideas on how to make that work?
Thanks!
Edit : So finally figured this app out and dang, I must say it's pretty darn good! This and Audio Profiles (found on the Play Store - not free) are the only two Profile Apps that I have found that work w/ A11 that lets you control the screen brightness & sound levels. But this app here, PhoneProfilesPlus, let's you control much much much more than that and is more configurable than Audio Profiles but is more confusing to set up, however. But once you do figure it out it's totally worth it as it does work better than AudioProfiles (for me at least).
The only feature that I wish I could find or make happen is that when I manually switch profiles that I can choose a beep to sound when I do the switching. I see that I can make it beep when it changes Events, but how can I make it beep when I manually switch profiles? (I left a suggestion on Github).
Gotta say it's pretty crazy that more profile apps such as these don't exist.. PhoneWeaver was the bomb way back in the day
Btw, you gotta find it here now : https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/index/apk/sk.henrichg.phoneprofilesplus

Verge OS 3.2.0.7 incoming call warning

Hi,
yesterday i received my Amazfit Verge.
I could not test it completely before an upgrade to OS 3.2.0.7 (I was running 3.2.0.5) came in.
I tested this watch on 2 phones (samsung s9 plus and a Motorola G4 plus).
Before testing I did a reset of the watch.
Both show the same problem, when testing the warnings the incoming call warning does not work.
When a call comes in the warning also does not work on the watch, all other warnings work.
Is this a problem with the watch or is it a software glitch in 3.2.0.7 and how to solve this?
Do you have latest version of Amazfit app installed on phone with all permissions granted? If yes, try adding the phone/contacts/favorites to the notification settings in the app.

Interesting - I just checked it with my Verge on 3.2.0.7. The first time I tried, it took relatively long - about 10 secconds - before I received the notification on my watch. The seccond time it came right away.
Have you tried to let it ring a little longer?
I'm running on release 2.6.7
Phone/contacts/favorites are hidden by the smart filter, they should not get selected.
I selected them anyway but the result is exactly the same
I've been waiting for 20 seconds now and I still do not have a notification on the watch.
I have exact same problem. Notification works only when I enable BT call function on watches.
I have the same problem, incoming calls are not visible. Samsung Galaxy S8 Android 9.
same problem here with a Samsung S10.....anyone solved it???

Did you marked in Watch App, notification section call/phone? Do you getting all others notifications like message, calendar and ect.? In 3rd screenshot https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.huami.watch.hmwatchmanager you can see notification area. Here you must add all apps from yours phone from which you want to get notifications. If will not help, try reset factory settings of watch. For me working everything fine. Also, if in watch you will not see caller name, need to give permission of that (in smartphone). By the way i hope you understand that watch with smartphone must be connected via bluetooth?
P.S. I got 3 updates, now i got latest where was integrated Alexa (working in US only). With all software versions which i had and have working all notifications very well, included call. I guest you will not added it in Watch App notification section that. I have not Xiaomi brand smartphone too. Brand of smartphone havn't any effect in getting notifications I hope But maybe China manufactor don't like Samsung, so... you can chat with Amazfit support us.amazfit.com. But i'm really don't want to believe that this is true. Maybe something bad is with Samsung smartphones, cos this problem have a lot of people here
I had a Xiaomi Mi9 before and all worked very well!!
Now that i switched to a S10 with all the same settings that i had before, the notifications (whatsapp, telegram, gmail..ecc..) are perfect BUT if someone calls me the Verge vibrate for a second, the screen lights up and...stop!! no name, not even number calling.....when the call attempt ends it also notify me the missing call....!! I am pretty sure this problem is connected to samsung phones with pie but i really hope there is a way to fix it because i would hate to sell my Verge.....

I starting to think that this is not Verge problem, but problem is with Samsung smartphones, even newest models. I have none Xiaomi smartphone and it's working fine. It's not Samsung too. So i advise you to chat with Samsung support too, but ofcourse try to talk with Amazfit support us.amazfit.com (it's US, but only this support have live chat) if will be closed chat, try en.amazfit.com via mail support, but keep in mind today is saturday, so answer via mail or chat will be opened only from monday. It can be that these models working with each other with this problem

everything is checked and there is no incoming call anyway
yeah same preset answer they give to anyone.......
i also have all checked but the problem persists!!
I think it's standard form of answer to costumer. So consultants doing just copy - paste process from base of information. I think company request to do that from theirs workers, so don't be suprised. By the way i got some too about battery, but it's better to get answer like this one if don't get it at all, i had some examples when i did not got answers at all or answers into my questions
Any idea how to fix it?

Try to do factory reset of watch. I tried several times and after last reset i could hear caller when i answered to ring. But i need to check again that. By the way i did some reset of watch without restore of my data. So maybe this can help you.
No helps. I think it's problem new software for verge.
Still happens on my new Note 10 too, damn it! Coming from Note8 I havent experienced this before.
