[Q] Bluetooth always visible - Honor 8 Questions & Answers

Hello, I have an FRD-L09C432B394 with EMUI 5.01
I have a smartwatch so I need to keep the Bluetooth always on, but I result always visible to nearby devices! O configured visibility and timeouts in Bluetooth settings but it's ineffective.
So while I'm on the train I receive continue association request from kids around.
Someone else found this trouble or have a solution?

I'm on an L14 and have not experienced this problem. Would you mind posting a screenshot of your Bluetooth settings page?

This is my situation, and in the meantime I'm visible! I'm checking from various devices...

What's the timeout for BT visibility?

It's 2 minutes, the shortest one.

I do not have a reason why your Bluetooth would constantly stay on. Have you tried a factory reset? Are you rooted? I'm really just talking stabs in the dark - I'm clueless.
Also, sorry for taking so long to reply.

My LG Gwatch R stays paired with Bluetooth on, but I don't need it to always be visible, it just auto pairs as it should.
I don't see any reason why your pebble doesn't do this as well.

[Q] home wifi issue

Hey guys,
I need some help with this issue. I am pretty sure it is my home wifi because I don't seems to be having the problem on the works wifi.
so the problem is my device will have slow to no internet connectivity even when i am standing right next to the AP. this is making it to where i don't get any emails and the email app will not let my phone sleep causing major battery drain with the wake lock being "latency" something something. when I get home i will see if i can get a screen shot of it for you.
Any help on this would be nice.
Firstly, give your router a reboot. The whole remove power for 30+ seconds

This^^^.
Then, if you are still experiencing problems, make sure your router's firmware is up to date.

Is your router's firmware up to date? Not to be pushy, but it was the only thing that worked for me.

When you go to the router's url, in settings, look for "updates".

Try selecting 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz in your phone's advanced WiFi options, instead of Auto.

I have it set to 2.4 and I called them and they changed some security settings, and it worked for a bit so I thought they fixed it but it is doing it again...

I've had this problem too. Turns out it's something to do with the carrier/SIM conflicting with the wifi connection. It was suggested that I turn off mobile data while using wifi. Since doing this my speed has never dropped. I've also set up a Tasker profile to turn mobile data off and on automatically.

I shall give it a good, that that is really weird...
Yeah, definitely a strange bug, apparently introduced with KitKat. I tried my O2UK sim in a Moto G and had the same wifi speed drop. My backup Vodafone sim causes no speed drop. Weird indeed.

I had the same problem. There's an app that is installed in Malaysk's rom that is doing this. I forgot what it's called. I think it's MTC-something. Disable auto brightness control from within that app from starting and you wont have that problem anymore.
Only one I have I think is mtc sound I'll check thanks

It is the MTC sound one, it's weird down in the settings past sound options. There's something about dimming the screen, it makes the screen way way to dark and is default on.
Thanks I'll check it

Thanks again that seems too have cured it it is brightness controlled by GPS That needs too be adjusted or turned off

Maybe you can do it with Tasker?
Sent from my FRD-L09 using Tapatalk
Thank you I will look at it. But that means that there is no way to do it from the settings? I hope a feature update will make this possible since it is a really useful feature.

I'm using it I should say every evening. Other option would be the f.lux app however I wanted to ask first.
Its a feature in emui 5.0 as seen on huawei mate 9. Honor 8 might get that as well in emui 5.0. Watch recombu video about emui 5.0 posted yesterday.
Tasker lets you schedule pretty much every setting.
Cannot wait for this in EMUI 5.0 then, as I had a Nexus before this, and was so disappointed when Google kept removing it from the Beta software.
Genuinely a must have feature for me, when I'm procrastinating in bed

Screen timing out/locking while phone is use

Hello All,
My Honor 8 screen is consistently timing out/locking while I am in the middle of using my phone. When it locks, it take about 10-35 seconds for it to recognize my fingerprint to unlock it again. I've played with the screen timeout settings yet nothing seems to work. Anyone experience this issue? Please advise, it's extremely annoying.
Thank You!

It's not a bug, it's a feature!
That's a known issue with Huawei devices...
