Do you have a screenshot? Once installed the Android app on your Bangle should display a menu showing connection status, I did notice an issue with messages on the development app loader (caused by something that had happened yesterday afternoon), but I didn't think that had gone live to banglejs.com/apps yet. Either way it's fixed now.
This is something that could be added. The functionality is there in Gadgetbridge (I've just fixed it for Bangle.js), it just needs to be handled on the Bangle.js.
This should work? I believe call notifications ended up broken in earlier Gadgetbridges, but 0.67 should have fixed that.
Do you see anything at all? Like If you're on the 'Bangle.js Gadgetbridge' app (https://play.google.com/apps/testing/com.espruino.gadgetbridge.banglejs) then I just pushed an update that should enable this.
Well, if you feel something could be changed to improve it, please make some tweaks and do a Pull Request :) The whole thing is open so you can improve it however you want Posted at 2022-06-10 by _pasi Hey,
Also had this issues. i updated the firmware version and all apps. Until now i din't had this issue again.
this is also fixed 😊
with the first one, you probably unlock your screen. you could configure it to eithe unlock when you liftup or rotate your arm. The other way would be in Settings -> apps -> Messages -> Unlock Watch to true. Then you have only the message and the message overview to get rid of. The icons are not good implemented jet, yes. But they will become better 😊 Update: i just saw, that for the beta tester on playstore a new version was released today, where the emojis looks verry good. Thanks @gfwilliams Posted at 2022-06-10 by Hank I tried Posted at 2022-06-10 by _pasi jap. the newer one is currently only for beta beta testers 😅. But most of the time (90% or so) the notifications from debug should work. A different thing that comes to my mind is to compact the Storage. Posted at 2022-06-10 by Hank Messages is 0.39. Edit: So, what I found out is that Messages will show "no Messages" instead of the blank Screen if I disconnect and reconnect Bluetooth on the Android device. So I'd love to test the new Android app version :) Posted at 2022-06-11 by Hank Got the new App - nothing changed for me. Debug log says:
When I send
from the Emulator, the Message app just opens fine!
All this is super weird. HA! Posted at 2022-06-11 by Hank So, it runs fine, now. Although I am not sure how exactly I fixed it. @gfwilliams I really like what you created - this pretty looks like bringing Pebble awesomeness back. Really appreciate your work. Posted at 2022-06-13 by Hank
That would be really great as I miss this so much. I guess the presets need to be added to Gadgetbridge as well then as configuring them would be a hassle. Posted at 2022-06-14 by @gfwilliams
That's true - although maybe it's not that bad to configure them via the app loader... Posted at 2022-06-29 by Hank @gfwilliams I still have issues with Emojis on Android with e.g. Whatsapp. A heart emoji is e.g. shown as a questionmark on the watch which leads to confusion from time to time :) Is there anything I can try out or is this a known issue? Posted at 2022-06-29 by @gfwilliams Are you using the 'Bangle.js Gadgetbridge' app? If so, go into the settings (the one next to the Bangle.js watch) and enable 'text as bitmaps'. That should now work fine to display emoji Posted at 2022-06-29 by Hank Awesome, seems to be working. Thanks! Posted at 2022-07-02 by Hank The emoji 🤭 is displayed as a skull. 😁 Posted at 2022-07-04 by @gfwilliams That's odd - is it possible it just looks like it, because it's rendered quite small at only 3 bits per pixel? Posted at 2022-07-04 by Hank -deleted- Posted at 2022-07-06 by Hank Yes, maybe. But I've seen it larger at times. Is there a cance to have a minimum pixel size for icons that are shown as images, so they won't scale with the font? Posted at 2022-07-07 by @gfwilliams They don't scale with the font anyway, but I guess maybe in Gadgetbridge if you could detect if they were emoji then you could render those a bit bigger. Posted at 2022-07-07 by Hank Well, I might be wrong, but I think I saw a normal good size of an emoji when it was sent without additional text. When text is sent with the emoji, I cannot see what emoji exactly was sent because it's too small. Posted at 2022-07-07 by @gfwilliams I'm certain it's the same scaling either way: There's the same rendering code - it just changes whether it renders it in 3 bit or black and white Posted at 2023-01-10 by Graphity Is there a way to display those emojis as font? How can I support that? Posted at 2023-01-11 by @gfwilliams I don't really understand the question... https://www.espruino.com/Fonts might help a little This has been covered a few times on the forum but Espruino only supports strings/fonts for 256 characters, since they are based on bytes. We can't really support all of UTF8 anyway because the font would end up being huge and basically using up all the storage on the system. You can use decodeUTF8 (http://www.espruino.com/Reference#l_E_decodeUTF8) to 'patch' up specific UTF8 characters with a bitmap for that character (just add '0' infront of the bitmap string like in http://www.espruino.com/Reference#l_Graphics_drawString) But... we don't send UTF8 from Gadgetbridge, we just send simple 8 bit strings. iOS does send UTF8 because we have no control of it so it works there. Posted at 2023-01-11 by Graphity Ok sorry. I didn't find any posts about Fonts, probably because I searched for "emojis". Thank you for your reply! Posted at 2023-03-23 by user154779 I can't get phonecalls to show up on my android phone, no matter which version of Gadgetbridge I use. Is there possibly something very obvious I am not seeing? I checked all the permissions and notifications, it should work (all the non-phone-call-stuff is showing up fine). Posted at 2023-03-24 by @gfwilliams Let's answer you on the other post you made: https://forum.espruino.com/conversations/372673/#comment16917703 Posted at 2023-03-24 by user154779 Thank you - apologies for putting it into two separate threads, I was not sure of the best place to post this. |

I am new to the bangle.js 2. Had a Pebble before and just made the first watch face. Working with the emulator and the app store is really great and I like the fact that we can use Javascript. So the watch is great showing the watch face and all the widgets, but:
Is it just me or is all the basic stuff a bit clunky? I am using Gadgetbridge. The Android Integration app shows blank screens.
From the Pebble I am used to be able to reply on messages with short messages (presets) and being able to decline incoming calls. Also BlueMail does not display the whole Message but the subject only. And finally no emojis are displayed with the messages. Also when I receive a message, I need to press BTN1 three times to get rid of it.
Is there anythng I can do to get my Pebble feeling back? :)
