Problem Show/hide Bluethoot icon

Hi, i have a problem when i try to show a bluethoot icon, when i install the program in the watch works well, but a coupple minutes later the button disapears even when the watch is conected to the celphone. maybe im doing something wrong, please help.

var btImage;

//! Constructor
function initialize()
{

btImage= Ui.loadResource(Rez.Drawables.BluethootIcon);

}

function onUpdate(dc) {

//Draw Bluethoot
var phoneConected = Sys.getDeviceSettings().phoneConnected;
if(phoneConected==true)
{
dc.drawBitmap((screenWidth/2)+10,(screenHeight/4)-5,btImage);
}

}


Make sure the Garmin Connect app on your mobile is open and running.
As far as I know the phoneConnected property is true when this is the case.
When closing / killing the app, it is "disconnected" although your phone Bluetooth shows it is connected.

What happens in the simulator? Does it react properly when you toggle "phone Connected" in settings on the simulator, if this is a watch face, togging low power mode?

Based on code you posted, I can see this appearing, but not going away, as it's not doing a dc.clear() at the start of onUpdate(). Could it be that under some conditions you bypass the code that displays the icon? (like checking for low power mode or something similar)

That's rigth

The only way a watch can (or should, really) connect to a phone is with the GC Mobile app running, and the watch paired in that app. If paired in the phone settings in addition to GCM, the BT is kind of flakey at best. Watches use "Bluetooth Low Energy", which isn't like the BT for headphones, etc.

Checking "phoneConnected" is the way to see if the watch is connected with BT. If phoneConnected is false, nothing can be done over BT to the phone.

Are you looking for a way to see if BT is enabled in the system settings? Today, there is no way to know that in CIQ

Thanks
