Venu 2 plus + Google Maps + Xiaomi Redmi Note 10

Hi Everyone.

Is anybody having success with this combination:

Venu 2 plus + Google Maps + Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 ?

I've tried a few Connect iq apps to show Goggle Maps directions.

They either don't work together at all or they start and 30 secs later stop connection.

The most success was with Garmin Gear, but then it stopped for no reason.

I think I've chosen all the correct permissions.

Cheers,

-D

  • Some phone aggressively kill background processes. Perhaps your phone's battery settings will let you exclude Connect from being terminated in the background.

  • Thanks for the reply. It's weird because I've double-checked all battery settings and nothing is on battery saver. I guess it's my Xiaomi that's the issue.

  • Hi, you might like to review ALL the app settings in Garmin Connect.

    Restart your phone. (make sure you have synced so as not to lose data)

    From your phone settings>apps>Connect>

    Permissions - ensure all are allowed.

    Storage & Cache - clear all 

    Mobile data - allow background data & unrestricted data usage.

    Battery - set at unrestricted (I understand this is already done)

    Open supported links - on

    Go back to the phone settings >battery>battery saver off, adaptive preferences>extend battery life based on phone usage - off

    Go to connected devices>Venu 2 Plus>ensure the three sliders allowing phone calls etc are on.

    These settings work for me (I have a Pixel 6 pro), the other issue you may be aware of is there seems to be a disturbance in the force, following the recent Android update there are lots of reports about malfunctioned connections in a number of forums. I would usually take this as a sign of a SW error somewhere. It's very likely we will see some kind of patch as soon as the masters of the universe can sort it out.

    Cheers

  • Thank you! I'll do this now. Thanks for spending the time to send me all this!! :)

  • Tried these steps and no luck. Frustrating. Yes, maybe there is an update to sort it out. Thanks for your help!
