Communications.makeWebRequest gets BLE_QUEUE_FULL on Garmin Fenix 5X plus

Hello!
Maybe someone has ideas what could be wrong.

I'm trying to use Communications.makeWebRequest and if I copy manually prg file to watch to make "real" testing I always get -101 BLE_QUEUE_FULL. I'm developing Widget and currently it's dead simple. There is one menu item and if I click it it makes request, so it can't be related that my widget makes too many requests, I added even logging and it doesn't, but still -101.

I checked parameters order and tried different things - but all were kinda hopeless attempts.

Everything works perfectly well in simulator (request made successfully and response received aswell) and I have tried to search forum topics around it - tried everything I could imagine.

Maybe it's related that phone is Google Pixel 5 with latest and greatest android with March security patch and I'm using Connect IQ version 3.2.5.

Best Regards

hey!
You are both right, I own proxy server and I can send there JSON and proxy it to Openhab API and make it work like this. That I will probably try to do today. Nevertheless yes perfect goal would be…

Can it be some phone setting? Maybe it restrict somehow, I actually tried to look, but all seems fine. I tried to remove even "Communication" permission to see what happens and then it crashed as expected and logged error.

GCM is running on your phone when you do this, correct? The sim is a bit different than GCM on Android or iOS, with speed being a biggy.

Sorry, what You mean by GCM? Google Cloud Messaging? I think so, otherwise nothing would work and it's Pixel phone :) So I'm pretty sure. I haven't done anything.

In addition Garmin Connect is also running and working flawlessly.

If I disable Bluetooth on phone then I get error -104 what is expected as connection is lost with phone. But with connection it's always -101.

Garmin Connect Mobile.

Try this widget, but you will need a free API key from OWM for it to run. (details in the description).

Ok, I try! OWM API key activation takes time, I'm coming back to You and letting know if that app works :)

Is there any difference if I copy prg file manually to watch vs installing from Garmin Store. I ask as I was suspecting maybe it's still somehow permissions related, but probably not as if I removed permission from manifest.xml then it behaved differently.

And another question - maybe You happen to know, is it possible to send in POST request body raw data, I don't want to send JSON. currently seems to be limitation that only JSON can be sent. For example for home automation changing devices state via Openhab API I need to send POST request with just payload "ON" or "OFF" for example.

Sideload vs app store should make any difference as long as you don't have to do anything like set the api key. This widget and others I've always tested with sideloads. The OWM widget has 20k downloads and no reports of what you see. My weather undergound version 70k - but it's harder to get an API key with WU. and no reports there either..

Now key got activated, directly using API via browser works.

Anyway I set API key via GCM and this app is also not able to load values, - and 0 stay. Probably the same cause.

Built in weather widget works.

Oh that app shows also at bottom centre -101 :(

Which app shows -101? My widget? Something is odd in your setup, and I'm thinking its on your phone - You do have a data connection on your phone, correct/ WiFi or Cell Data?
