requestApplicationWake does not draw the attention of the user on the FR735XT
o The Environment:
Eclipse Neon.3
SDK 2.3.2
FR735XT FW 8.30
o A detailed description of the issue
The best thing we have is Background.requestApplicationWake(). If this request string doesn't trigger a device vibration and/or tone (when they are enabled), then I would consider that an integration bug on the devices. We can't really request an application start if we don't bring the request to the users attention.
This was discussed before in a feature request thread ( https://forums.garmin.com/forum/deve...ect-iq/157858- ), due to lost posts after the forum upgrade I never got to filing a bug report in order to have this fixed properly.
o Steps to reproduce the issue
* Create a application that does a background process with requestApplicationWake
* Exit the application and wait for the background process to launch the wake request
* When the wake request occurs the FR735XT shows the wake message, but the message is not accompanied by buzzing and/or beeping.
o Any applicable additional information
Options to fix:
* vibrate when the message is shown, follow the system setting regarding vibrations (my preference)
* beep and vibrate when the message is shown, follow the System settings regarding vibrations and beeps (think beeps are too intrusive)
* provide a new system setting and let the user choose how the alert message should work (no vibration no beep, only vibration, only beep, vibrate and beep)
As this is apparently depends on the device team it's possible that this also manifests itself on other devices. The integration of this API should be verified by other device teams as well to see whether the requestApplicationWake call is functioning correct there,
