Issues pairing garminconnect and ForeRunner 35

Former Member over 7 years ago

Dear Garmin, I ma experiencing huge issues in connecting m device to GC app on Androind phone.
it worked ok till a week ago when it all of a sudden stopped.

I tried everything (restarting watch, phone, both, resetting watch, removing watch from app and re-adding)
Wtih the last step: (remove and re-add) i realized that the watch issues the bloothouth connectivity code but, before you are physically able to type it in, the watch (or the app) experiences a "timeout" and tries to issue a new code. This goes on in a loop till the users throws the watch away and wonders why in the world he bought such "crap" that, for all other purposes was working just fine.

Please advise what to do, as is the watch is utterly useless (also bc I cannot connect it t anything else than the GC app!)

Thanks
Simone

The solution i mentioned worked for a day. I have retried every suggestion i could find a number of times. Another 8 hours?

i wrote Honor 8, but its a 5. Apparently there are known issues of incompability, so i guess i need to wait for a phone or gcm update.

ps. Tried downgrading gcm to an earlier version, but no luck. I reckon the cause of problem may be a huawei update in late 2017.

Hello, i updated the software of my Forerunner 35 to the new version 3.30 dated 07/03/2018 and all bluetooth pairing problems disappeared. Hope this helps anyone who hasn't seen it yet.

Edit: Phone is Huawei P8 Lite
