Casio G-Shock GB-6900b now compatible after update

I received the G-Shock Gb-6900b-1b yesterday as an awesome present from my bro in law. It wasn't linking to the phone until I updated to 4.3. Casio says only the iPhone and Galaxy 4 are officially supported, but everything is fully functional as of the update.

Congratulations! Could you post some photos and to tell what exactly gives that synchronisation?
It is too expensive for me in any case. I have had a G Shock watch, I have bought it in german Amazon for about 10-20 Euro, it is looking quite the same. It has an awful quality, despite Casio usually don't do a bull****, but one left button "mode" has fallen, so now I can use this watch only with arrows.
But I think for 180 dollars they do much better watch hehehe))
I just don't understand what gives that synch for such price? Has it geolocation or radiation detector?)
P.S. white watches in your link are fancy

Here are some pictures. Keeping it connected is kind if a pain though. Hopefully it improves.
It's pure Bluetooth, allows you to set alarms and find my phone if lost. Not as fancy as the smart watches but much more durable and last a couple years.

Problem with the smart watches is requiring to regularly recharge the battery. In addition to other mobile gadgets now there is a watch to recharge (!)
So how does the battery on the casio manage with bluetooth ?
G-shock is a term Casio has been using for over a couple of decades now.

It's says it will last about two years on its charge before the battery needs replacing. No recharging!
Sent from my C6903 using Tapatalk

so what is the function of the bluetooth?

My guess is that if it's constantly connected to your phone then the knock on effect will be that both devices will be hit by the usage, unless they've found a way to drip feed the BT and retain battery?
Two years on one charge is pretty epic when you consider it connects via BT.
Perhaps a kinetic type watch which replenishes the juice when you move would be a better innovation.

I've got one of these and it works pretty well. You can get alerts for email, sms, facebook, twitter, etc. You can also control the phone from the watch with features such as skip forward/backward on your music player, play/pause, volume up/down etc. The watch even displays track name info and email & SMS sender on the display. The downs are that it's a very large & chunky watch and that's from someone with a large wrist and that the phone's battery is greatly affected by this connection. I carry ZeroLemon spare batteries so to me it's not as big of a deal but to others it may be a deal breaker. Another thing is I had to disable one of the features due to annoyance & something that does need to be addressed by the folks at Casio: Lost connection warning. This is a good idea and in theory is supposed to warn you before you leave your phone somewhere. In practice what it does is annoying alert (tone & vibrate) regularly when your phone is in your pocket next to you and the connection is just dropped. The connection is far less reliable than most bluetooth devices I use and this includes going back several years. Other than that the watch is supposed to last a couple of years on a single battery which the competition couldn't dream of (although old Nokias before smart phones were the same since they had limited features which is a similar comparison) are ultra durable and with a solid price point too. While I hope they add some more features and fixes easily done through app updates the watch itself is pretty solid as expected for a G-Shock.

Does it work on 4.4.2?
I keep getting errors if I try to side load it " app not installed"

Should be compatible. Still working with my phone.

I couldn't find it in the play store, I was able to find it on my old xperia sp when I search for the G-Shock+ app. And if I try to side load the apk, it says "application not installed"... Could you extract the apk from your phone so I can try it out again?

mate i'm buying a g-shock today

I have that since it's first release and bundle with my Casio phone. Awesome watch but still prefer Casio Waveceptor:victory::victory::victory: Still, the battery is ****ing awesome, no replacement for 2 years now:laugh::laugh:

G-Shock+ alternative: BlueWatcher
Hello everybody,
I'm the founder of the Android Application called "BlueWatcher". BlueWatcher is the alternative to G-Shock+ Android app to control CASIO Bluetooth watches. A lot of users missed functionality in the official app and I decided to release my own app including the functionality that users proposed me. It's evolving quickly!! Now it supports all kind of notifications (facebook, whatsapp, line... all installed apps), time synchronization, musico control...
You can visit http://www.bluewatcher.es to discover more about BlueWatcher and what BlueWatcher can do for you.
It has been tested my many users in the XDA Developers forum and now it has more than a hundred downloads (~4.70 punctuation at Play Store).
I'm here to help you ([email protected]). Feedback is welcome!
See you and hope you enjoy it!

Use the old version of Gshock App
Hey man, just use the old version of the Gshock App. and don't update it. It will work better again, connects automatically.

i'm also thinking on buying gshock with bluetooth, im just wondering if the music controls work with other music players such as spotify?

After Lollipop Update it didn't work
Can't connect on my Sony Xperia Z1 after the Lollipop Update. How about yours?

Running stock on 4.4.2 the app just wont find the band

When you are scanning for the bracelet push the button on X5, that will wake it up.

I'm doing the first charge now. I'll try it out by the morning. The only sad thing is that i won't be able to try the android app and pair it because i'm still using Galaxy Nexus and it's not compatible. By the next week i'll try with my Nexus 5.

Minimum 4.3? For ICS is not compatible
If I use custom rom then that will be work to pair the bracelet?

In theory, it should.

Anyone else bought the bracelet? Feel free to add me at viddon. My user name is henrique.barbosa

Just saw Vidonn updated their app in playstore. Haven't checked it out yet, would be interested what they changed.
Also, talked to Vidonn guys directly, and apparently they are working on a next get X6 bracelet. Still, X5 is probably one of the cheapest functioning waterproof activity bracelet you can get now.

I've the OnePlus One.. but my smartphone don't see the Vidonn X5
Can you help me ???

Is the vibration strong?
Can it wake you up from your sleep?
I found some bracelets (like MiBand that I have) but the vibration not strong enough and it was only 5 vibrates and that's it

The new Vidonn X6 smart bracelet seems to be available as well. Will you be reviewing this anytime soon as well Vectron? I didn't like the Sony Smartband as it has no screen, and the Sony Smartwatch isn't any good either as I had to charge it almost every day. Was thinking about the Vidonn X5 but as the X6 just came up that might be interesting as well!

Absolutely! Waiting for review sample

Cool, looking forward to it!

Can anyone tell me if you have the pair the braxcelet via the app or just with the Phone itself? I now have a cheaper other bracelet that connects via the app but when i kill the app i also lose connection. If you only use sports tracking it's not a problem but when i kill the app i don't receive notifications on incoming calls etc.

Thanks for sharing my link. If anyone has any questions please let me know☺.
I'll be working on developing some custom watchfaces for the Sony SmartWatch 3 to join my collection for the SmartWatch 2.
Cheers
Julian

hey julz, thanks for coming here.
I can see at the moment the Sony works the same as the other android wear watches. The extra features will come the next update.
Do the updates come directly from Google or Sony? Did they say anything about it?
Last week the watch was shown in India and I saw in the protypes Google Fit and Runkeeper preinstalled.
I think Google Fit is not yet available to the public, right? And maybe the runkeeper app it's a special version to use the GPS and without the phone....
You can see it after 2:30 in this video:
http://youtu.be/1_FAc9bw9ic
What do you think?
And what about the wristband? Many, many people say this is a terrible watch because of the ugly black wristband. And that is unfair. The watch itself is a great piece of modern technology.
Do you run? Will you use it to track sports when the update arrives?
Thank you for being here!
Edit:
Swimming!
can we swim safely with this? Did the Sony guys tell you anything about it?

Hi, my watch has Google fit installed. It is currently just the app that shows you how many steps you've taken. Run keeper i believe is installed on your watch when you install the normal run keeper app.
Not sure who will roll out the updates but in pretty sure it's the manufacturer like your phone. Don't know about swimming with the watch, not sure why you would want to anyway.

Well it came to my attention. I saw the runkepper app in two Indian videos of the presentation and I'm pretty sure it was preinstalled, so maybe they are developing a version to be used without the phone in the next big android wear update.
To swim with the watch makes sense if you practice sport. Think about tracking the activity, as stopwatch or even to play music while you swim!!!
Or even more easy: You don't have to hide the watch in your bag while you are in the swimming pool.
Just curious about the potential. Imagine to practice sports like Triathlon or Duathlon. Makes sense for sports.

Unfortunately, it sounds like I will not be able to wear this one. Bummer, as I was really looking forward to it. I really wish they went with a standard watch band...
Maybe the metal band will be longer, but I'm not holding my breath.

Hi Julz
Based on your experience, Can we really expect 2 full days of battery of moderate usage? or this is the usual marketing BS?
---------- Post added at 02:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:11 PM ----------
I'm curious about the transreflective screen.:
- In direct sunlight, how readable is it?
- are colours washed out when reflecting sunlight?
- would a normal bulb light be enough to read the contents, or the LED is on?
- Will it use the screen light on day light or only when there is not enough light to reflect?

Yes two days is achievable. Probably not necessarily 48 hours all the time but enough that by the second day you'll be at home ready for bed before you need to plug it in. The screen is similar to the SmartWatch 2 in its readability in sunlight. I'll need to double check how it looks as we just started getting some nicer weather here with some sun. When the screen is in low power mode it is easily readable indoors without the need to turn on a light. You would only need to turn on the screen in active mode if it was dark. Probably no more difficult than trying to read a book at night.

Can you pair a bluetooth, chest strap heart rate monitor to sony smart watch 3?

At this moment it works like the other wear watches. It needs the phone for everything and there isn't any app that uses the internal gps. And if you must carry the phone it makes no sense to pair the chest monitor to the watch.
But this will change with the big android wear update and the new features independent of the phone.
We have to wait a little bit more. I hope the chest monitor thing is in the plan of future stand alone fitness apps for this next generation of Android wear.

Hey, thanks for the info about the gps, I figured it must be tied in with the upcoming update, and may be a part of the delay.

Vibration Motor
Hi Julz,
Any chance you can comment on the strength of the vibration motor between the SW2 and the new SW3? I like the vibration intensity on the SW2. Tried a Moto 360's vibration motor and it is a joke - too weak!!
Thanks in advance.

The vibration motor isn't as strong as the SmartWatch 2 in my opinion. A bit more subtle but I actually prefer it as it isn't as loud and annoying but still noticeable.

Sony says in Europe that the wifi thing is a mistake.
What a joke about the launch of this watch...

Hey all
With IFA 2014 underway, we have more info on the Sony Smartwatch 3. Lets start with a hand on video​
Credit to Which
Sony Smartwatch 3 key features:
Design: Sony has taken a sporty look with its latest smartwatch, with its rubber wrist band that can be swapped by popping the center watch out of its strap. While there are several colors available, they are of all the same type, so its down to Sony if any other style will become available. Its design does open up a few other possibilities than just a wrist watch, SmartPocketWatch anybody? As with most of the new wave of Smartwatches, this has no camera, for me no big deal. The device features a bright 1.6" 320x320 transflective TFT LCD display.
Android Wear: With Google's big push to unite all wearables to one operating system, Sony has provided with the Smartwatch 3. Its built around voice command and simple gestures to help with the functionality of such a small screen. It allows functions such as the ability to reply to text messages, view Email or get directions, all from the wrist!
Fitness Monitoring & Walkman: Sony has introduced a service called lifelog, this helps users monitor and develop their fitness and well being. Sony is also rolling out a new Walkman app, this will enable the pairing of Bluetooth headphones to the Smartwatch.
Lets take a look at some images of the Sony Smartwatch 3.​
Looking forward to hearing members thoughts on this new design:good:​

And Sony have just lost a customer.
I hate watches with none changable straps, plus it looks cheap compared to the SW2.

It's the strap that looks cheap. A full metal one is coming soon.
http://www.mobilefun.com/48552-sony-smartwatch-3-metal.htm
I hope they show it as soon as possible. Many people dislikes this watch because of the rubber strap (wich is great for sports and swimming).
Remember is the first IP68 and with GPS. Probably will be the first to fully support the extra features of Android Wear 2.

And Sony may have just regained a customer.
(Unless the LG G Watch R tempts me away, stupid name though, I may have to go for the Smartwatch 3, just because it would be a less embarrasing name to tell people if they ask what I'm wearing)

It seems is a "last minute" move from Sony.
The rubber strap gave a negative first impression in many websites and forum comments. A full metal watch+strap may atract more people.
I was Ok with rubber because it's perfect for swimming or sweating, but giving options is the right path to shine and sell more.
I'm also really looking forward to see in action the sport/multimedia features without the phone. This watch is the first of a new generation.
Bring IT ON!!!

Despite missing the heart rate sensor, in terms of specs and hackeability, this seems to be the best (specwise) smartwatch soon in the market.
The screen is transreflective, wich, for me is a plus.
Would like to know if I can buy the metalic bracelet version on the release day, or will have to buy after, but definitelly very excited about this smartwatch:

Wi-Fi "enabled", what does it mean? normal wifi?
If it has wifi opens the door for many more things like music apps downloading music without the phone or to sync exercices directly...
It's weird they don't talk about it in Sony website...
What do you think?

Fingers crossed for the Wifi thing!

I do not think it is a tranfectif screen.
Does anyone has already seen the sw3 ON without backlight?

It is confirmed in official specs. I don't doubt of that.
But wifi is only a spec in internal documents.
In public Sony website they don't mention it. That's a mystery at the moment.

In google play, it also mentions it's WiFi Ready!!!
Also Bluetooth 4.1
https://play.google.com/store/devices/details?id=sony_smartwatch_3_black
Bluetooth 4.1 devices can act as both hub and end point simultaneously. This is hugely significant because it allows the host device to be cut out of the equation and for peripherals to communicate independently.
For example, whereas previously a smartwatch would need to talk to your phone to get data from a heart monitor, now the smartwatch and heart monitor can talk directly saving your phone’s battery and then upload their compiled results directly to your phone. This is crucial to the Internet of Things concept: peripherals become independent and can build their own networks before bringing the collation of all their data to you.

What does WiFi ready add in? I can't wait for this watch!
Sent from my VS985 4G using XDA Free mobile app

It is unclear if its a mistake or not. Sony hasnt said anything about it. In the prototypes is not enabled.
We can only guess. But the potential is big. For example imagine a music service to download music before going running, or after the actitvity to sinc everything without using the phone...

No. Everything is crazy slow on it. It's good if you just want a good looking watch that you can check phone notifications on, but if you want to use literally any other features, wait for the next gen of watches that will use Qualcomm's recently announced chip.

Go for it and buy it everything is great with android wear 2.0,I would buy it again..

Sorry, I take back my previous post. I almost never use apps on my watch. I just gave them another try and each one takes a few seconds to open. It's not perfect, but it's not awful. I've been spoiled by my super fast Pixel 2 XL. You're right though, the new processor doesn't seem that much better, so maybe you should just get this one. It's definitely the best looking one on the market still, in my opinion. And you're right, the new cpu isn't that much better. So if you don't mind being stuck on Android 7.1.1, go for it.

This is a great watch with slow update schedule. I use mine daily and would easily recommend it. :good:

thanks guy, bought one SS huawei watch 1 and waiting for delivery, will update soon (sold my gear sport).

Good choice. I still love mine. Its imo the most watch-like smartwatch. And I have receive compliments from friends, family, colleagues and even random strangers in a lift regarding the watch.

Got to agree with the above. Good choice. Huawei got it right first time.
Had mine since the Huawei Watch first launched in the UK. Amazed it is still going so well and I am STILL getting compliments about it. The only thing that would tempt me away from this little masterpiece is if Huawei made a real successor to it.

I think had they not inexplicably reduced the face size in the Watch 2, I would have upgraded. But here we are, still with the Watch 1

My Black Edition Huawei Watch

Guy thinking of buying watch 1 now, is that worth to do so (prices is really low too)? for personal reason i much prefer huawei watch 1 than watch 2.
btw my current smart watch is Gear sport but really tired n piss off with Tizen apps store, most apps need to pay but final result is BAD and samsung do nothing abt it.
millions thanks

my first smart watch (not smart band) is samsung gear sport, i use it for nearly a week but samsung eco system is way too aggressive n galaxy apps quality is really poor, bought some and almost none of it work out of the box ...
than try look for alternative smart watch but almost all is target for health/sport, only watch look a like is huawei watch 1, for me i can wear my huawei band 2 pro or fitbit as monitoring device or gym band., watch 1 as watch.

Yeah my first watch was Moto 360 Sport.. but it had some issues so returned it and got a LG Urbane.. it was nice.. but accidentally killed it with water.. so the got the Huawei Watch 1.. I LOVE it... the Saphire screen.. good battery life.. nice look .. small bezel.. good speaker.. and current on Android Wear OS.. all for around $100 or less... very good value IMO!
