No. 1 D5 smartwatch -Gearbest - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
Advice please.I have a U18 smart watch from Gearbest that i am returning because of connectivity issues with my new S6.So Im looking fro a Gearbest replacement because I get a credit instead of money return.
Im looking for call and receive on the phone/with speaker.Able to do face book messages and notifications, and possibly GPS but thats not essential.I dont want a sim, i want Bluetooth and wifi.
Is there anything that is good? such as the No1.
The last thing I need is for another one not to work with my phone. The U18 by the way worked fine on other devices, and my phone hooked into my handsfree no problem , so its an issue between both the u18 and my phone .
Cheers
Greg

Call Issues in Touch Pro - Unable to hear voice of person at other end

Hi,
Whenever I make a call or receive a call, I cannot hear the voice of the person at other end, while they can hear my voice with some echo. I have already installed new radio (downgraded from 1.02.25.32 to 1.02.25.28) and have done hard reset many times.
I'm not able to understand how I can resolve this problem. If somebody has faced similar problem, please do let me know the solution.
Regards,
Deep
Hey, I have this issue as well.
From what I have read on these boards it seems like a hardware issue that can only be remedied with a replacement phone.
If I am wrong on that please post, as I would rather fix it myself then have to send it back. My phone is the ATT FUZE by the way.

If that's the case, then I'm probably screwed
I bought my TouchPro online from Expansys UK this October and as per their return policy, any defective item should be returned within 10days of purchase. Since, TouchPro is not released in India, local HTC Service center does not support the device.
Update: I'm able to hear the voice if I use the loudspeaker or the wired headset. This clearly indicates a hardware problem in the ear piece.

[Q] oneplus one bluetooth problems

i've seen this being discussed a few times but with no resolve.I bought 4 oneplus one phones altogether.The first two were for me and my daughter bought a week apart.
These have worked flawlesly and both have been rooted both connect to the bluetooth in the car with no problems.
I then ordered one for the wife and the brother (family thing going here) they both arrived at the same time and both failed to pick up any signal...
I updated them through wifi then the phone aquired a signal with no problems.But here is the problem, both of that phones will not connect to the cars bluetooth..
everything on all the phones match up from the android version to the baseband so i can't get my head around why there is a problem.?
i hear that its a problem with cm ! but why are some working and others not?
are there any roms that are not cm11 based that i can flash and see if it is the software that's causing the fault or should i wait to see if there are any updates to fix this common problem?
It's the brother's phone thats the problem,he was a long time apple user and i convinced him to change to the opo now thats jumped up and kicked me in the butt...
if this is the wrong place to post this question i do appologise,not used to posting on forums.!
thank you
bluetooth problems
well here is an update if anybody is interested.I installed multirom and mahdi rom,bluetooth connects no problem now
I'm having the exact same issue. I had a Chinese OnePlus that connected easy-breezy to both my BMW and Acura cars. I got a new OnePlus just last week which has not been able to connect/pair at all with either car. The phone can not find any BT devices.
This is back breaking here in the anti-cell phone+driving Northeast.
When they do connect, as mine does, can it send/receive text msg's and emails via the car. Mine works for phone calls and music but no msg's. 2014 Toyota Corolla
same here, just got my OPO not quite a wek ago.
64gig-version, rooted, stock FW, latest OTA.
my BT headset connects just fine, just tried it in the car today, but the phone just does not find the alpine CD-headunit (connected fine with my GNEX or N4 before).
im actually thinking about trying ParanoidAndroid-ROM wich i liked very much on my N4.
any leads?
OK then, I just flashed paranoidAndroid .. Ta-Daa: connects to in-car BT Unit.
ParanoidAndroid by the way doesnt come with the OPO-Lockscreen, but the double-tap to wake up. just enough for me.
cheers!

Checklist of sorts for a new phone

Hi all,
So my friend in the States received the phone today with the 360 degree camera today. I won't be getting the phone physically in India till mid January, so I was wondering if I could get a checklist of sorts that I could ask my friend to check on the phone eg. wifi, connection etc.
Would appreciate any help !
Thanks !
Ask him to insert his SIM card and use the phone for a couple of days as his primary device.
That should be enough.

Call on Speaker Problem

Hey guys i have bought one plus 7 pro few days back , i have been using the phone and frankly speaking i am in love with this phone . i have to say that this is the best phone i have ever used.
Recently i came with a problem that while i am on a call if i put the call on speaker, my voice not go the other side. The person on the other side cant hear me.
So i tried to do it with two phones side by side thinking that it might be some network issue or something might be wrong in other user phone, but still it was like that while on speaker the person on other side cant hear me.
If anyone can help me out of this it would be appreciable.
Thanks
Yes ! Had the exact same issue with my one plus 7 pro. Would also get weird sounding feedback when on calls. No solution to the problem. Ended up turning it in under warranty and got a new phone sent to store, picked it up on Friday and haven't had any issues with new phone. Can't replicate issue with new phone either

Question GPS Issues

Anyone notice inaccurate GPS after the Jan firmware update? Mine use to be fairly accurate and suddenly in Jan the GPS points after a run are now ridiculous. Mark firmware hasn't fixed it.
yes, around the same time, problems with the GPS when recording the route!! In the Maps application or location for the Weather, no problem!
This has been a problem for me since last update, and GPS/activity tracking is the main reason I have this watch! It was "fine" until a few weeks ago when i got my S22 Ultra. Thought it was just poorly set up but I've factory reset both and still an issue. Glad to know it isn't just me, but would be grateful if there is a fix!
The problem hasn't been resolved yet. Support replied that they were investigating the cause. Today, even more, I was convinced that this was a problem with the Samsung Health app on the watch !! Since Google Fit finds the GPS signal after 5-10 seconds!!!

Thanks for that info - It's not just Health app, I've tried Strava, MapMyRun and a few others and none of them could find a signal so pretty useless as an activity tracker! I'll try Google Fit today and see if that works. Interesting Fit works since google maps also works so the GPS on the watch must be fine it's how the location data is shared to non-google apps?
Confirming Strava cannot receive GPS signal!!!

Google Fit pull GPS from phone. Disconnect phone, and you'll see Google Fit has same GPS issue as all the other apps.
I confirm!! If the watch is disconnected from the phone, then the GPS signal is not received !!!
Ohh good call on the phone GPS. We'll, that's a bummer. Hopefully they can get it fixed for the next update... Whenever that may be.
Friends, did you send a report about this problem?
Installed update ***OXM1FVC8 last night and GPS still worthless.
It is necessary to fill up with reports about the problem, Samsung Support can then be fixed! They don't read XDA..
I sent another report that if you disconnect the watch from the phone, the GPS does not work at all!!!
I'm shipping mine back for repair as it's under warranty. Let's see what happens. I received a ticket number and shipping label.
Compass Navigation (Wear OS) - Apps on Google Play

Samsung got watch, said it passed all tests with no problem detected. And they are sending it back. Looks liked I wasted my money buying this over a Garmin.

Great.....
I started a support case with them and after having me turn it off and back on again they said the only option I have is to send it in for repair. I JUST dropped it off at UPS, so sounds like I have 2 weeks with no watch just to get it back the same way it was... bummer. I'll let you know if I hear anything different.

So, they told me that my watch wasn't going to be repaired because the part isn't available. They also can't replace it because there is no stock of watched apparently. I had to call 7 times and spent almost 2 hours on the phone with different people to find this information out. I'm being refunded in theory but through a very convoluted process. I do not recommend anyone send their watch in for a GPS issue!
I sent mine in for the second time and:
1. Received notification it is un-repairable.
2. I called and was told I'd receive a refund.
3. Received email notification with shipping label to send watch in. However, they already have the watch.
4. Called AGAIN, and was told that they process a refund and to look for an email to start the convoluted refund process (check, PayPal or Venmo.)
Unfortunately I won't be able to do that. The watch was bought from an online store, for the South America region. My location is UK... (((
Spent 4 hours off Welsh coast with clear sky's today. Using Wear GPS Fix app to evidence it found 1 satallite. Clearly very broken. Will complain to Samsung
