Smartwatch sync app
-
@jiho Hi, do you have a new download link? The old one expired. I tried building it from source, but I'm too noob to figure out the apparmor settings. unconfined doesn't work XD

Thank you
Edit: I'm on Edge with the Fairphone 4 and infinitime 1.11.0. It's connected, but i'm not getting any stats. Bluetooth settings says it's a mouse :brain:
-
@equareo It should not matter if it is interpreted as a mouse :D... after the first connect, it will try to sync the firmware version of the watch (restart the app if the sync does not work at first). You can manually sync by swiping down.
-
@jiho Nope, not getting it to work. Maybe because i'm running the firmware that came out three days ago, or maybe i'm just too on the edge XD
This is as far as i get. Refresh doesn't do anything. -
@equareo Could you please try this one: https://gitlab.com/jiiho1/uwatch/-/jobs/3199676376/artifacts/download?file_type=archive
I added a progress bar to display the initial sync (firmware version should then automatically update). Before that, could you delete the app data via UT Tweak Tool to get a clean state?
Only after the firmware version synced successfully will you be able to sync the rest of the data. (Battery status is currently broken as BlueZ can't fetch that attribute)
-
@jiho After deleting the app through the UT Tweak tool, and then reinstalling it just works. I haven't upgraded the system or done anything else fancy, so no idea why it didn't work the first time :confused_face: Thank you so much for the help

@equareo The edge channel is not the best place to be on for Ubuntu Touch. It is an outlier and for highly experimental stuff, and sometimes lags behind, when the stuff gets into the main channels.
If you want to be on the cusp of development and help test new features as they drop, the devel channel is the place you want to be.
-
I just added automatic sync to the app and I'd like to get some feedback, if anyone is interested. To sync in the background, disable suspension with UTTT.
Build: https://gitlab.com/jiiho1/uwatch/-/jobs/3214702902/artifacts/download?file_type=archive
If everything works as expected, then I'd like to submit it as a beta app to the app store.

@jiho Last version dont see the watches.
Just click '+', open bt settings, connect to Infinitime device, go back - and nothing! -
@sandworm88 I'm sorry, I should have added it to the first post also.
With the updated BlueZ version in the Dev (and I think RC) channel, I stopped using gattool, as it made things a lot more difficult.Instead I'm using bluetoothctl. Unfortunately the current BlueZ version in stable is not able to use GATT commands to fetch the information. This includes paired devices.
-
@jiho it was decided at the last moment to revert the bluez stack to the one in stable, as the new one caused too much breakage.
How will this decision impact your app? -
@arubislander Even though I understand the decision, I was hoping the updated version would stay.
In the long run probably/hopefully not at all. I expect that we'll have a new version in focal which would make it work as I'd expect it to.
For xenial I can bring back support for gattool to at least make it work again, but it is old and already deprecated. There would also be a bunch of limitations by how it works.
-
Welll, so what package I can use in my stock stable OTA-23 phone?
I'd just tested two latest builds. One does not work, next does not install.
Too bad you'd deleted old builds which work. -
@sandworm88 As I wrote in my last post, I can bring back gattool support. But the functionality will be limited.
If you take a look at the CI builds, then you'll notice that one (the working one) is a build from the branch for xenial. The other one (not functional one) is for focal and therefore won't work at all on xenial.
-
@jiho Just installed https://gitlab.com/jiiho1/uwatch/-/pipelines/699847107/builds . No luck.
Please make and keep in repo the last working version for stable OTA. It can be feature freezed. It can do less. But it will do. -
@sandworm88 Here you go, that version should work again in xenial: https://gitlab.com/jiiho1/uwatch/-/jobs/3377320141/artifacts/download?file_type=archive
After pairing the watch via system settings, disconnect it and disable auto connect. Gatttool can't enter existing connections. The app will connect to the watch automatically.
-
@jiho Ok, thanks, this version had found.
Wait for system update -

Hi! Is this project abandoned?

It seems to be. But there are other options. There is a new UT version of Amazfish for Focal, which supports a nice lineup of smartwatches, and for Pebble watches we are expecting a new Focal version of RockWork any day now!
