Problem with Garmin gadgets / app

Hello,

n cant longer connect my Garmin Forerunner 310XT via ANT + under Lineageos. Did that fly out on Andoid 7?

Have the same problem with all my Android phones since 2 days, i’ve heard something, that it is a Garmin app related problem from the last app update and has (hopefully) nothing to do with LineageOS :frowning:

In the meantime you might be able to downgrade to one of the earlier versions: https://www.apkmirror.com/?post_type=app_release&searchtype=apk&s=garmin

Hello,

this has nothing to do with the Garmin app, as it has never supported the old Forerunner models. There is the Garmin ANT+ Watch Uploader app, which has read out the Forerunner watch via ANT, gives.

The ANT Tester App shows the following picture:

Can someone test this, who is not on LineageOS?

Info: Under android 5 and 6 it still worked.

When did you switch to LineageOS? Can you be sure that this is not caused by an app update, as @schmulschubiak suggests?

One and a half weeks ago and today I wanted to download my missing entries from the Forerunner.

So, having the timeline in mind, it could still be a problem of the app, do I interpret this correctly?

Could you test with one of the ANT+ apps? https://www.apkmirror.com/?post_type=app_release&searchtype=app&s=ANT%2B

Yes that could be. :slight_smile:

I have now been confirmed by the developer that the app continues to work on Android seven. So it does not seem to be a problem of the app, but as I suspect, it is because of the implosion of the ANT + interface under LineageOS.

Hello,
the exclamation point says (no service).
Could you take a look at why this is the case under LineageOS?

Lineage OS seems to lack support for ANT+ “out of the box”.

Someone has managed to solve the issue on a Oneplus 2, though:

That’s annoying. For the app you have to pay 10 euros, but then I do not know if this app works well. :sob:

Maybe @chrmhoffmann knows another way to make it work in Lineage OS.

Can you confirm that technically this works with normal fp os?

I pushed something for ant. Let’s see if that works for your on the next update.
I don’t have a device to test this but the ant tester app shows green everywhere.

It still does not seem to work for me. :frowning:

What if you press the download buttons? I think I pressed all the download buttons and I have all green.
