Hi guys,
Any of you know any app that can check whether IR Blaster is working?, mine seems doesn't work, Mi Remote is obsolete, can't seems to show any brand of tv or other electronics appliances, i use SURE universal remote app, doesn't work either, any ideas?
I know how can you check wheter the IR light works or not. You can use digital canera or another mobile phone. Infrared light is invisible to humans, but when you capture it on camera, it should blink white light on the camera's screen.

Hi. Mi Remote relies on cloud-stored list of appliances and it seems that the older version can't connect to the servers to get the data. Update Mi Remote app via Mi Store. It solved the problem for me.

Official Xiaomi Mi Remote app is available on google play.
sorry can't post links yet. app is named 'Mi Remote' by Xiaomi Inc
I face a problem on my redmi note 3
While watching videos suddenly google comrs on the screen
Could anybody please try to add more than 1.000 characters to the Contact Notes Field and try to sync in back to Google Contacts?
I still have the Huawei Mate 8, which has that problem since Nougat. The Huawei Mate 9 has similar problem, not sure what Mate 10 will bring. The problem is described in more detail here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-8/help/notes-field-contacts-app-displaying-t3418753
Or here:
https://support.google.com/mail/forum/AAAAK7un8RUYdC16dfv7ss/?hl=en
I'm thinking to switch to LG V30 or Pixel 2 XL, just because of my Contact data getting truncated and lost. Samsung Note 8 also still has the problem, I tried it out in Samsung store.
Could anybody please check, if there appears an obvious limit in the notes field within Google Contacts?
Thanks!

It seems so. Just did a test for you. Perhaps this happens with every phone.

Thanks a million, man! Much appreciated! It wasn't the case before the Nougat update on my Mate 8. Also on my old LG G2 not a problem. And on Nexus or Pixel devices with direct software from Google.
But all Samsung have the restriction and several other brands. Huawei since Nougat, also on the Mate 9.
Unfortunately it seems more common now... Really too bad. I won't get around finding other solutions then.

Same with Huawei Mate 20 Pro
I have the same problem with my new Huawei Mate 20 Pro. So far I have been using iPhone and all the notes of the contacts have been displayed in full. However, when I use native Huawei Contacts app or Google Contacts app on my Huawei phone, the notes get truncated (cut off). Huawei support has told me to contact Google support, however, at Google forum, they say the problem is device specific and that phone manufacturer should fix that.

espero les sirva , saludos desde argentina

I'm also waiting for someone who knew if it's possible. I currently own the Chinese version with ColorOS installed and is also wondering if it is possible to install a Global ROM with WearOS.
Same question for me too...

Hi guys,
I'm waiting for Global ROM too, but I'm still struggling in connecting the color OS version to my samsung S20. How did you do that? Without Wear OS, right?

First of all you need to register an account through oppo website as doing it in the coloros app requires you to have a China mobile number.
Once the account is made download the coloros app using the QR code from the watch.
In the app login using the account you made.
From my experience the coloros which is available in the app store could not connect to the watch. It required the specific coloros app from the QR code given by the watch during setup.

Hi Omar, what do you mean by being not able to connect the Chinese version of Oppo watch to your S20 or any Android phone? I was probably the first in Canada buying Oppo watch in March and after a few month I found the way to connect it to my Galaxy S10 phone

With the Chinese version there is no way it can connect to WearOS. You will basically use ColorOS especifically the one that it asks you to download after using the QR code given by the watch.

There is the Chinese version of the watch and there is this global version. The Chinese version uses ColorOS while the global version uses WearOS. It is a bit tricky to setup the Chinese version of the watch as some of the instructions are in Chinese and the QR code takes you to a site different from Playstore to get the ColorOS. However the global version is a lot easier to connect as its using the WearOS available in playstore.

And you have to register and create an account first using your email address at Oppo's website before continuing with the setup. Once an account is created use the email address as the login information instead of a mobile number as you will need a chinese mobile number to continue.
Hi,
I Also bought a Chinese Oppo Watch (unfortunately). I have a Oppo phone (Model CPH1877) and connected the watch by downloading the "Health app"' using the QR code on the watch. Some apps on the watch are Chines some are in English (I have put the language on the watch on English).
Notifications from the phone to the watch are working perfectly but the Chinese app store is limited. I also mis a payment method on the watch. Only for Chinese banks.
Would love to flasch the international ROM on the watch but don't now how to do that and I can't find an international ROM for the watch.
Anyone ideas???

I also apparently got the Chinese version of the Oppo Watch (46mm) from Bludiode.com in England. I thought I was getting the international version. I have tried to connect it to Wear OS using my Samsung Note 20 Ultra, but it connects and gets about 1/8th of the way through "getting watch information"....then stops.
How did you get your watch to run Color OS? I have tried to use the Health App it wants me to download, use my e-mail address...then it wants a phone number? I've tried suing my USA number, but that doesn't work. I've read other posts where people say that you need an international number for that to work? How did you get past that step?
Any help would be appreciated as I'm sitting here with a $300 paperweight right now. Would love to connect it to something and have it work....at all.

Still looking for a solution. I may end up returning the watch to the seller as I had no idea this watch was the Chinese version and not the international one!

Hi skersh,
I have an Oppo phone as well. So I registered an Oppo account when I got the phone. Since you don't have an Oppo phone I quess you need to register an Oppo account with a Chinese phonenumber. When the watch is connected to your phone via the Chinese health app (Hey Tap Health for Wear OS) the watch works perfect.
Good luck.

Thanks for your reply! I really appreciate it. Any ideas on how I can get a "chinese phone number" just to make this watch work? Or, would purchasing a cheap Oppo phone, then registering that phone and getting and Oppo account make the watch work that way?
Just trying to weigh my options here.
I did contact the seller in England and told them that they sold me the "Chinese version" and not the "Global or International Version" and have asked for an exchange or refund. No word back from them yet.

Hi Steve,
I would try to find a Chinese phonenumber. Perhaps Google can help? If you buy a cheap Oppo phone, the watch will be connected with that phone and not woth your Samsung Note. Can you register an Oppo acoount with Oppo in England?
I have found this video on YT. Maybe it helps?
Cheers,

Laurens,
Thank you and thanks for the video link! I'll purchase an Oppo Phone to connect to the watch. I'm glad that you also told me that it won't connect with my Samsung Note, that answered another question I was going to pose. Perhaps, I'll at least be able to connect and use the watch with the Oppo phone and in the meantime, hope that a bootloader is unlocked later on and allows Wear OS to be flashed to it sometime soon!
Appreciate the help! Thanks again!

Laurens,
Thank you VERY much for that video! After watching it, I used my phone number (USA) instead of trying to use an e-mail address to set up and account.
IT WORKED!
I was able to connect to my Oppo Watch using my Samsung Note 20 Ultra, after downloading the Health app (from scanning the QR Code on my Oppo Watch) I got it synced up and it's working fine! I did have to use a second phone using Google Translate to deciper some of the setup screens, but I'm getting notifications, I've picked a watch face and everything seems to be working just fine!
I really appreciate your help and for now, will use my Note 20 Ultra with the Oppo Watch.
Take care and have a great rest of your weekend!

Hi,
Glad you.managed to get the watch working with your S20. I am.also considering getting the oppo watch Chinese version and I currently use a Samsung note 10 plus.
What I wanted to ask you is that when the oppo watch is tracking your fitness (steps, workouts) via the health app in coloros, does it also show up on the Samsung health app on your S20?
I currently have the Samsung galaxy watch and naturally it's all in sync with the phone health app but I hate the watch and would love to get the oppo watch in stainless steel!
Would appreciate any info thanks
