Unlock via mi band 4 doesnt work after a while - Xiaomi Mi Band 4 Questions & Answers

I set the MB4 to unlock my device when its close. At first it works just fine but after a while it stops working. Im using the Mi fit app and it is running 24/7 on my phone in background. The bluetooth connection is always on and i tested it via the option Find my phone which rings my phone. But the unlocking doesnt work. I have to manually open the mi fit app to get this work.
Any ideas?
Im using XIAOMI MI8

[Q] Help setting up QPair with phone

I just received my G-Pad LGE (loving it so far). Unfortunately, after updating q-pair on the tablet and installing qpair on my Verizon Galaxy Note 2, I am receiving the (expected) "Internet via Phone is not available due to carrier or device compatibility" error. My question is this --- is there a rom I can install on my note that will allow internet via phone to work? Ideally I'd like to stay with as close to a stock rom as possible, (stability and no broken features are most important to me). I understand I might need to flash an AOSP rom, and if that is the case, can someone who has a note 2 recommend a stable rom that will work with all the qpair features?
Not sure if this would be better suited on the Note 2 forum, I will move if needed.
Thanks,

This is not a problem with the tablet, If you are looking for a rom for the phone you should try looking in the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 forum of XDA-Dev.

I get the same message with my note 3.
I am on Rogers in Canada though have Tmobile sim in at the moment. I can use wifi hotspot no problem on my phone, so I am not sure why I get the noncompatible message. Maybe it is a feature that works only on LG phones?
The previous user was thinking maybe there was a way to modify something on the tablet to allow a connection as such.
Same thing with Nexus 5
Internet via phone doesn't work with LG G Pro
I have the same issue as those trying QPair with Samsung phones. The difference is I'm trying to use QPair with my LG G Pad 8.3 with a stock rooted ROM and an LG Optimus G Pro with a stock rooted ROM. The G Pro phone has been hacked so that the built-in Wi-Fi hotspot feature works. I can turn it on manually on the phone and join the Wi-Fi network with the tablet. I was hoping that QPair would allow me to turn the phone hotspot on and off from the tablet. That would be a lot easier and save on the phone battery since I'd be more likely to turn the hotspot off when I don't need it.
Is there something in the carrier ROM (my phone is from AT&T) that is preventing QPair from using the phone internet?

What carrier and what ROM are you using?
onotoTm much
did u update the qpair on your lg tablet via the update center , that fixed my issue the first time i tried using the internet feature
Malladus (based on stock). I'm on O2 in the UK.
I did have issues with Qpair at first. If you removed any bloatware, you might not be able to install the updated version.

I can confirm that it appears to work with my GS3 on Verizon. I did get the error you describe at first, but I changed a tethering setting and then the internet would work via the qpair program.
I was able to make the error go away if I had Bluetooth tethering checking on the phone (settings, connections, more networks, tethering is how you get there on a TW 4.3 based phone).
The setup procedure I did (from memory) was to update the qpair program on the table via the update center not the play store, but install the app on the phone via the play store.
Good luck!

I updated the QPair software on my tablet and enabled Bluetooth tethering on my phone and it still says its not supported on this phone due to a carrier policy or an incompatible device. I'm guessing this is because it's an AT&T phone and they have done something to block it.
I have not removed any bloatware from my tablet. I'm pretty sure the issue is the phone, not the tablet. I'll start a new thread in the LG Optimus G Pro forum.
Okay since i last used qpair i have installed at least one new rom on my phone... And it is no longer working... I do not use this feature much. I am not sure which change I did broke it.

If you are using a custom Rom you might need to change the device name in the build.prop to lv510 and reboot and then download the version from the play store

Unlock my phone not working

Anyone having any issues with unlock my phone not working. I get the message that This phone protected by Zenwatch manager but I always have to key in the pin.
I have an LG G3 AT&T unrooted phone.
Its perplexing because everything else works great.

I'm just guessing because I'm running Lollipop on my OnePlus One so I'm using the built in functionality (it's awesome), but make sure the Zenwatch Manager is approved as a device administrator. Settings, security, device administrators. If it already is you might try disabling and re-enabling it.
Having the same problem here. Went back into zenwatch manager (on phone) and there is no longer the option. It's like the feature went missing.
Nexus 5, 5.0.1
I figured that the built-in lollipop trusted devices would work better and have used only it. It seems to work fine with the zenwatch and other BT devices.
Mine stopped working too. We're you able to get it fixed?

Press and hold your mi band 2 button for 30 sec or more. This will reset mi band 2 and repair with mi fit app.
Good luck.

I think it does not concern with android version. Other ppl also happen HRM error. It may be Mi band 2 latest firmware problem. Check above link and try, this link may help you. BTW, my mi band 2 is OK in HRM and I use android 6.0.1.

My Firmware version is V1.0.0.53 and MI Fit version is 2.2.3. I suggest you need to un-pair and uninstall MI fit app. Restart your phone. And then Install MI Fit app and re-pair with mi band. Remember, Always open Bluetooth and GPS when you re-pair or update firmware, otherwise your device may be fail to pair or update firmware.
Good luck,

You should first pair with old version, if OK, upgrade to new version when open Bluetooth, GPS and Mobile data.

Mi band blue tooth
I had come across a similar situation where miband was not syncing with mifit app. searched a lot and could not get any solution. and a simple workaround helped me. So thought of sharing this. Mi band seems to be not connecting and syncing. i checked the bluetooth settings where i got an option to forget the band. and i had done that. Now i faced the real issue that i could not found the band in range after scanning for the devices.. Now i was searching for an option to reset miband which i found there was no way. then while i was exploring the mifit app under profiles i found an option as add device. in fact it was showing my device there already and that was the actual issue i guessed. So i could unpair the same from there and clicked add a device. it worked . my band started vibrating and phone screen shown a message to press the button on the band. I pressed the same and it got paired and synced with all old data. That was a simple issue but some times we dont check the things in right place.
Hope this post will help some one

Try my Solution here.
You can use the Mi Band Master app. The free version is enough as an alternative to Mi Fit. It can reset the band, and you can set new configurations.
There is also a Pro Version which is the best!
Well, I got the same issue,
In Bluetooth settings, I can see the mi band 2, but when trying to pair with mi fit or mi band master app, it doesn't.
Tried a third party app Fix-It for mi band 2 but it doesn't work either,
The band is unpaired from the account and the phone.
Tried on an other phone but still not connecting.
The band is tracking my activity and the HRM is working too
HELP ME T_T
Here are some of the steps that I found from one of the youtube videos.
[/URL]
If you paired it with a device, and now you're trying to pair it with another device, it won't work. First of all, you have to unpair it with old device, then try connecting it to the new device.
Please sufficiently charge your Mi Band.
Try restarting the Bluetooth and then connect it.
If this also doesn't help, rebooting your phone will definitely help.
After lots of research.. I found this application gadgetbridge.
Connect you band to this app.
Click on Menu -> Debug -> Factory Reset
note you will lose all your data from band. But it will get reset and then your mi-fit app will start detecting it again.

OK Google

I recently upgraded to the 7x from my 6x and I cannot seem to get OK Google to work. I know it will not work while locked which is fine but I cannot get it to work even when unlocked. Any Ideas?

It's hit or miss sometimes. Make sure you have all the options configured in Google settings. You may also need to download and install Google Assistant from the app store.

Is your SmartLock working right?

So I have been having issues with my Note 10+ ever since I've upgraded to Android 10. Did pretty much everything from a reset to a factory reset and delete amd still having issues with smartlock. I have it set to a few devices like my work van, earbuds ,beats and home. I keep getting asked to unlock it when hooked up to any of the devices or at home. Also I've tried to update and delete each one but it still is not working. Even I have ticked when on body.
Wondering if anyone has had same or similar issues with Smartlock?

Yes!! I thought maybe it was something I had done myself. I have mine set the same as you, buds, UE Megaboom3, work and home and it asks me about 90% of the time to unlock using fingerprint or pin when connected or at these locations...very frustrating. Used to work flawlessly before Android10. I thought it was because I was using Nova launcher but haven't tested stock launcher.

The SM-N975F is the international version, Europe etc...
Exynos, 1 x Sim and 1 xsd card. etc
I'm not sure to sure with the SM-N975U1
but i think its......
Snapdragon, Dual sim..?
USA unlock version etc
same here
I have the same issue on sm-n976v i also have noticed that if you have good lock with lockstar activated it also seems to mess with smartlock but i used to turn it off and would start working and now it just doesnt work at all.

Yep, same exact issue, nothing in smart Lock works for me. Not trusted devices or trusted places. It's just useless. I have resorted to using bixby routines to keep the phone unlocked in trusted places and it seems to work way better than trusted places ever did. But the trusted devices thing is still irritating.
Edit: Just wanted to add this is on numerous Note 10 pluses (always want to try out different. Colors and special editions, lol) and ever since installing the first beta version of Android 10.

On Android 9 smart Lock worked better than it did on any of my pixel phones which was refreshing. Location and device both worked flawlessly. But not any more unfortunately.
