  • Seems to work as descibed

  • Hi 
    1. I set my PulseOX to night only.

    2. Set it back to Tracking Mode to Off.

    3. Forced Sync via mobile

    4. Saw that my settings on GCM is turned off.

    But just today's morning I get my PulseOX turned on to All Day after enabling turning on "Phone Sync" via menu called by "start" button, and it was on version 6.05

    I've tried artificially to turn off "Phone sync" and create some activity and then turn it again just to re-create the problem but failed and my settings remained intact.

  • I wanted to add that today PulseOX problem finally gone, it was first morning starting from upgrade to 6.0X when PulseOX wasn't set for All Day. I have no idea why it happened yesterday, maybe it was a kind of farewell, as I was already running 6.05

    Kudos to developers if that bug gone for good, as I've 0.8%/h discharge right now.

  • I'm on 6.02 beta for now and browsing through the beta-specific service widget, I noticed that my nfc was on for 33 minutes. I never used nfc and have no card enrolled. Why is this used and how much battery does the nfc use?

    Noticed thes in previous betas as well, so I don't think this is new, and probably present in final firmwares as well.

  • that's interesting, I checked mine and it was used for 3 seconds only. I would report what you've found to [email protected]
