Just wondering from anyone who has already gotten hold of this device - does it support ANT+ ? I know oneplus has been a bit hit and miss in this department in their previous phones.
Would very much appreciate if someone could test for me as it will be the decider between this phone and a samsung!
Thanks!!

Judging by the list published on ant+ website, no. Only a handful of manufacturers support it.
But what is your use case for wanting ant+ in a phone? I mean I have garmin devices with ant+ and I've never used it.
My watch has bluetooth and wifi, and my scales have wifi. Perhaps the only device without bluetooth or wifi is the heart strap, which I hardly ever use since the wrist monitor is pretty decent for running.

Thanks Munny, this is what I was looking for. Seems its capable, I just need to install the ANT+ Radio app.

The list on the ant+ website isnt exhaustive. There are apps available to enable to hardware in a lot of phones - oneplus included. However in the 6/6t there were issued with its stability and I was wondering if it has been resolved in the 7.
why do I want it? So i can use it as a bike computer instead of shelling out £££ for a garmin edge which does the same thing. I need the ANT+ for my cadence and power meters. I dont want to be constantly looking at my watch whilst im riding.
Also, the garmin footpod is ANT+ (although this gets picked up by my watch so is fine).
I don't have a bike computer, but if you want me to test something I have the phone.
If you can explain how (what app etc) I can try it with the heart rate monitor, which is only ant+, no wifi or bluetooth.

I believe you are mistaken, and the wifi version has no GPS.
I have a bluetooth GPS receiver that I used with my Viewsonic g tablet but that required an "blueGPS" app to get it to work. I imagine with Touchpad may also require a third app to get it to work. An app that is likely not available for the Touchpad.
Are their any app for the Touchpad that can use a GPS?
There are apps in the hp-market. But i can't make out if they
all are real gps or if they need wlan/inet too.
Most of them also cost money.
I think i also read somewhere about using extern gps with that app
called usbpassthrough. But that app looks like some handy app, because
it didn't start in fullmode.
Ah, my apologies, my information was based off of a chart I googled last Saturday after purchase. It did not differentiate between the wifi and 3g/4g versions. I guess I can cross searching for a new GPS app off my to do list...

LOL... yeah, no need for a GPS app.
I wonder if there is a way to get my bluetooth GPS receiver to work with the Touchpad. I got a confirmation e-mail about 3 or 4 days later from HP.com but it hasn't shipped so I'm not certain I will actually get one.
Anyone got some info on this, with GPS this table would be such a great product.

Install Preware and get Navit. The app works fine in fullscreen and either orientation. Just let us know if you manage to get your dongle working.
I've got a Bluetooth dongle but the touchpad couldn't find it... I tried selecting OTHERS but nothing...wondering why...
EDIT: I found that we cannot any other device other than webOS, I suspect it's all about the stack, hopefully some developer out there can hack it.

Reading that ^ I tried an old cheapie chinese BT GPS receiver I have lying around, it found and connected in a couple of seconds. Now we just need some GPS software to make the right calls to it!
To both of you who've successfully paired your GPS dongles, does GPS show up as an available location service?
If not, it shouldn't be particularly difficult to make a patch.

No you can't do anything with it, none of the existing gps apps work because they are looking for an internal gps module, they don't look to bluetooth for it. What we would need is an app that works via the bluetooth stack? the way the old Palm Tx etc did.

I am going to buy a Pipo M6 tablet, but i have not been able to answer one question about it: they advertise with E-compass, as a kind of GPS replacement, but I cant find any info about what it is.

I have the PiPO M6, and I tell you it does not have a GPS, or anything assimilated in. E-compass would be an electronic compass.
If you want to use the tablet as a navigation device, I'd suggest installing an app such as Bluetooth GPS and connecting to an external source of GPS data to which you can connect to using BT. You can use your smartphone's GPS for example, or get a dedicated unit such as the Royaltek GPS that you can find for about $35

Fast and smooth in launcher app, Sometimes some lag when i have too many apps open. Browsing with Chrome can be somewhat laggy, but I understand Dolphin does a better job. The screen is excellent, with good colours!
No regrets with this tablet - the build quality is good, the screen is great and PiPO seems to be willing to maintain it for the moment being with regular firmware updates. What I'm looking forward to is an update with the RK3188 SDK 2.0 which is supposed to bring substantial benefits.
It looks as though a firmware incorporating the SDK 2.0 has been made available Will test and get back

You need an app that reads the GPS data on your Nexus 7 and makes it available through BT such as GP2 to Bluetooth https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cajax.gps2bt2
On your tablet you need a provider that can connect to you phone once you've paired the two, with "mock locations" enabled, for example https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.turboirc.bgp.v1
Then on your tablet you need an navigation app such as MapFactor: GPS Navigation (you can download the maps to your tablet before going on the road)

Use this to root ANY 4.2.2 RK3188 device.
Make sure your system has ADB drivers installed correctly (you can use the installer from adbdriver.com).
For more info, look here, where you can download my PiPO Max-M6 ROM (complete with CWM).
I'm too lazy to type a PIN all the time, so I like the idea of Smart Lock to unlock my phone.
What I would like to do is have a very small Bluetooth device that I can carry in my pocket which will keep my Nexus 5 unlocked when it is paired, but of course the phone would lock if removed from the area of the Bluetooth device in my pocket.
An obvious thing is to carry a Bluetooth headset - but I don't want to use the headset to talk, so that's not a great idea.
I'm really looking for a small device that I can carry that will pair with my phone, but really do nothing other than connect which would then trigger Smart Lock.
Any ideas?

I completely forgot about those! I wanted to order one but it slipped my mind. Thanks for reminding me!
This isn't answering the question you're asking, but the Google Play Services update that's rolling out currently is adding "Trusted Places". This way you can be at home, work, or any other place defined in Google Maps and the device automatically unlocks. Tasker and apps like Unlock With Wifi have done this for some time.

I know it's not necessarily a "simple" or "does nothing" solution, but have you considered a android wear device? That's what I have set up as my trusted device.
Might be easier to remember to wear a watch than to throw some meaningless device into your pocket; the watch will have more purpose.
I have been informed that as I look at my phone too much as it is, that I will be divorced if I get an Android wear device.

Try enabling Developer Options and then toggling "Keep mobile data turned on". See if that helps. And by the way what ODB II scanner/diagnostic program are you using that requires both WiFi (instead of bluetooth) and internet to function? That sounds like an incredibly poor way to simply run codes and whatnot.
Tried and doesn't work. I use SmartControl (Paid Version). Since i use the Superman-Rom, it has a bug and need to verificate with PlayStore if i start it. (Fixed with LuckyPatcher now xD)
But i need the connection for realtime traffic-informationen from google and other similar apps. My car hasn't the realtime-traffic information function. :/
Best option might be to eat the loss and just buy an OBDII scanner with Bluetooth instead of the WiFi version.

I've never actually used the wifi version, but I have no issues with speed or sample rates with a bluetooth scanner. Though I spent the little bit extra for a high quality scanner vs one of those generic $15 ebay specials. Nothing wrong with those if you want to just occasionally check codes, but if you're doing logging and stuff, they're not really that reliable.

Hi guys, i'm coming from the Moto 360 Sport, and interested in getting the Huawei Watch 2 Sport, simple because Moto crippled it after the AW 2.0 upgrade, ridiculously slow to use now.
With the Moto 360 Sport, it did have a display feature called "AnyLight ", that displays in 'any light' and i loved that.
Motorola accomplishes it by combining a traditional backlit LCD in "transmissive" display with reflective backing. Or something like that.
Anyway, I really like this feature, see screens attached.
I was wondering what the Huawei Watch 2 Sport/Classic screens look like in dim/ambient mode. Does it have this idea?
Anyone care to share some photo of this, as I've read/watched so many reviews, but cannot see what this looks like.
Thanks a lot.
Darren.
Hw2 is amoled so in ambient modes is uses much much less battery because of the black pixels being off, but this feature that you're talking about is not available in hw2, however the watch display is very sharp and shiny even in direct sun light.
also be aware that amoled screens get damaged (burn-in issue) if a pixel is on a particular color for a long time, meaning that for example on ambient mode there are numbers around the screen that are always on, this may cause those numbers to burn in the screen so even when you are in a completely different screen, you will still see those numbers! (for more info google Burn-in)
Just adding to what was already said regarding burn in. Most watch face makers that support ambient move include a feature which shifts the pixels around ever so slightly to prevent burn in. A very simple yet elegant solution to the problem.

yeah if that's as you said it would be great, I havent noticed it yet
So I just found something interesting. Under developer options > Wear Developer options there is a "force anti burn" setting. Set this up now to give it a try.

hi seems like relevant topic for my question.
are there many disadvantages to get the wifi only (non 4G) of this huawei watch 2? (i get the obvious i cant put sim card and get direct internet connection of course). for example:
will the NFC still works on the non 4G model?
how about the xda community ie root twrp and custom rom? less or more than global version?
any other important things i need to know when deciding to get wifi only or 4G?

also by googling i think NFC works on both model but ofcourse the wifi model will need to be connected to phone to be able to use NFC android pay for example, i assumed
