Huawei Mate 9 issue connecting to Garmin Fenix 3

[rayraymond]

Hi,
Just go the Huawei Mate 9
So far so good, everything is running flawlessly.

I have a Garmin Fenix 3, i used to connect it to my phone by bluetooth.
When i try to pair it, after i punch in the pin on the phone (6 digits), the phone indicates it is paired.
But on the watch, it just saying "connecting ..." forever.
like a minute or so then it will say Pairing failed.

Fenix 3 v8.20

anybody else having the same issue?

Fenix 3 HR syncs just fine

I have a Fenix 3 HR and haven't had any issues syncing with the Mate 9. I did have some battery drain issues once when switching the pairing to a new phone and performed a factory reset on the Fenix to clear everything out. Maybe try that.

I had Fenix 3 paired with Mate 9 L29C432 on Oreo B361 with same problems with maintaining stable Bluetooth connection. I had to lock Garmin Connect task in the tasktray to have connection without interuption, but my problems with Oreo is that even with the stable Bluetooth smart notifications are not always showing on the watch.
Now I returned to Nougat B198 and everything work fine.
