Anyone found a software which works on Android M 6.0?
I have tried around 25 apps from playstore and other forums. None of them works, all of them throws errors - in typical Chinese English!
"Sorry, apk exception"
"Smart watch no connect"
"Install BT Notifier"
I am fed up...
I got my eBay special u8 smart watch just before new year's and intended to wear it at work (I'm a mechanic by day so didn't want an expensive watch to ruin) anyway, I have (until tonight) been unable to access my messages etc only have I been able to make and receive calls on my watch. I was getting errors like
"Sorry, apk exception"
"Smart watch no connect"
"Install BT Notifier"
The only process I could do was to go through and test every app produced by developer rwatch individually. This meant hours of installing, testing connection then uninstalling when it didn't work. I now however have found one that works 100% with no error so far *touches wood*
Link to app store is blocked because I'm a new user so you'll need to search it yourself unfortunately.
App is called "Craig Smartwatch"
Hopefully you can find it because admin restrictions on new accounts won't even let me post a picture let along a useful download link until I have successfully made several helpful posts............ catch 22, can't help people properly wiithout sharing the link but can't share the link without helping people first........ morons
Successfully working with u8 smart watch (eBay) and HTC One m8 with Android 6.12.980.5 cl663331 and kernel version 3.40-perf-g708019fand@AABM #1 SMP PREEMPT with HTC sense version 7.0
I sincerely hope this helps you all as it literally took me several hours to test countless apps out, the stress of which has not been helped by the new account limitations preventing me from posting the actual link to the app so everyone with this issue can finally solve it.......
Instructions
Turn your Bluetooth off on your phone (best if your watch is already paired)
Download and install app as per link above
Give it details to register for login (this is for the fitness tracking side of things. I am confident my details are still on my phone, it is just to create an account and keep track of your fitness goals etc.)
Choose what apps to sync notifications from.
Turn Bluetooth back on and connect watch on Bluetooth
Your watch should notify you when it's connected and you will start to receive notifications on your watch from your approved apps.
One thing that does disappoint me about this watch is the inability to reply to text messages from the watch, you can however read texts and then call the sender from the watch so that's OK I guess.
Hope this little guide helps. Admin please feel free to move or duplicate this post anywhere it is needed by members. I'll be happy to provide the link to admin so they can post it on my behalf of someone wants to contact me via pm (unless of course sending pm is also a blocked function for new member in which case all this time posting this guide will be a complete waste)
Cheers
