So has anyone got it working?

[Q] Klick App not working in Moto G

I got one of these Pressy Button Clone from Gearbest and tried to install the Klick App to work on Moto G phone. Installation of app is fine, and the app lets user define which app to be launched in one click, two click, or three click modes once the device is secured at the earphone plug. The app only gets to the point of confirming whether it's earplug or the device in the microphone jack, but remains unresponsive, i.e., not launching the corresponding app.
Phone is Boost Mobile Moto G flashed to pageplus with Verizon firmware & I did not do any 4.4.4 update (manually disable ota when flashing).
Anything I can do to get it to work?
just got gadget today, not working too.

Google now contact recognition missing in android 5.0.1

I have factory reset my nexus 5 in an effort to improve battery life, however I have now run into an issue with my moto 360. I can no longer use my 360 to make my phone ring/text contacts. There no longer seems to be an option in Google now settings: accounts and privacy to enable contact recognition.
When using voice commands on my phone alone there is no issue with it ringing contacts I ask it to. I have tried enabling OK Google detection when when the screen is off.
Any suggestions? Has anyone found a work around for this?

This feature is on by default.
Sorry but it isn't. See:

It is not an option on my nexus 5 since factory resetting, and means that I can't instigate voice calls using my moto 360.

Are you thinking that Google is as fast as we are.. You are wrong my friend.
Fair enough, any ideas why my phone won't recognise any commands from my moto 360 to ring contacts etc... then? All I get is a message on my moto 360 to "try again on my phone" which appears after the 360 finds the right contact and the right number and tries to ring.

[q] does smart lock with Bluetooth device work for you?

Has anyone else tried using a Bluetooth device go smart unlock your phone?
I can register my Bluetooth headset for the function but my phone still gets locked and requires my fingerprint after the screen is off for a few minutes
My phone is locked due to exchange security policies.

Works fine in my truck...
Works fine with my Sony SW3
Works fine with my moto 360
Same thing happens to me, but for location. I raised with Samsung on twitter and they asked me to email them. I've done so. Will let you know if I get any update.
I see the same issue - I have tried with two bluetooth devices and also a location. None of these bypass the need for fingerprint to unlock the phone. I also tried with PIN security - same issue. My phone has an exchange account linked which altered some security settings, maybe this is it? However, same account and same Android version on a Nexus5 and there was no problem.
yea im having issues as well. I do have exchange security as well but this worked fine on my Nexus 5. I'm also having issues where my Nexus 5 could skip songs via bluetooth. This does not work via google music now via my pioneer headunit. I cant tell if this is android bluetooth issues or what??
I have the same issue. Just disabled my exchange policy and it started working. It does not ask for fingerprint or pin any more.
This is weird because same setup on Nexus 5 worked fine. There smart lock overrode the exchange policy, but looks like Samsung has decided to give exchange policy higher preference than smart lock.
same for me just work with car Bluetooth but not with locations
Ok, moved Exchange account into Knox (which is awesome by the way) and now the smart lock works. Proves it was Exchange security causing it.
Cool, looks like exchange is the root cause.
Let me go explore knox as well!

I'm having the same issue with no exchange account set up.

+1 on location. But Bluetooth is perfect for me.
I had the same issue, smart lock works with BT but not with location.
What helped for me: I used location of Home from maps, it wasn't work. When I added "new" place and used near address it started working. I'm not using Exchange with security (I'm used to using Office365 and there isn't this rule)
works fine here over bluetooth to my gear 2 neo smart watch , and my turtle beach elite 800 wireless headphones , also location lock is working here on the w8 stock unrooted.

What is knox? How did you accomplish this - I really want to get this trusted device unlock enabled. Thanks in advance.
I have the same issue - smart lock works without "corporate" account. However when I setup a "corporate" account (Exchange, or in my case - it's Google Apps with Google Device Policy) - smart lock stops working.
You can configure trusted devices/locations, but you need anyway to unlock device using pin/fingerprint/or whatever. Exactly same configuration worked well with recently replaced HTC One M7 (Sense version with Lollipop).
It's my first Samsung device after about 5 years with Android.. is there any chance they fix anything like that, is it worth to bomb tech. support about it?
On the side note, regarding alternative solution - I'm a bit curious how Knox is working. I don't like additional layer it adds to a system, and I don't really need such paranoid level of security, but.. maybe Knox is not so bad? Does it show notifications from Knox applications? How all apps are working in background, or do I need to unlock Knox each time I need to check the mail?
Yay, the upgrade to 5.1.1 has fixed this.
How do you disable exchange policy?
Update took care of it - I did not change anything.

Sony SW 1 not working after upgrade to Android 6.0.1

Hi
I would like to ask if anyone has the same problem than me, I have a Sony Smartwatch 1, today is not so good, but solve my requirement.
I recently upgrade my Asus Padfone S Plus from android 5 to 6.0.1 and in this moment most of the apps stop working in my watch, because I am a smart ass, I think reinstalling all the apps will solve the problem, but... really mess up the apps that was working, and now only displays the time and show the missed calls (any other app or function is not working in the clock).
When I download a Smartwatch app in my phone, if appear in the Sony Smartwatch app, appear in the watch, but did not work (all the screen is black when enter to the app), and with other apps, even do not appear in the Smartwatch app.
I know that is an old watch, but i would like to know if its time to replace this sonys scrap....
Thanks.
Lg magna android 6.0.1 works just fine. Try factory reset and so on.
