Fenix 2 + Bluetooth connection = Pair device problem

Former Member over 10 years ago

I tried to pair Fenix 2 and Android Connect program.
When I click on Pair device window - I can see on the pair connection code and Connect searching and searching for device.
In 1-2 minutes I've got message Connection timeout. - "Timeout while connecting"

Please watch video example -

Any idea how to fix this problem?

P.S. I tested my smartphone
I connected to my Bluetooth headphones without problem. This mean - Bluetooth connection is ok. :-)

Connection via USB cable - works great.

Thanks again to MilkyWaye - He was right !
Simple trick - you have to pair Fenix2 OUTSIDE of program. You need to use settings - bluetooth - scan and add device with pair. That's all
Here it my HD video how to pair Garmin Fenix 2 and Gramin Android software.

P.S. Syncronization not so quick as USB cable. Please wait for 5-15 mins to finish sync. Don't reset.

P.S. By the way - I didn't get any answer from Garmin support :-( from November 30 to Dec. 02. Is it so hard to comment this simple situation ? :-(
I recommend to add such tip in Connect software bore connection. Something like this : "Please pair your device outside of this program in Settings - Bluetooth section before connection"
It'll be clear for begininers.
