  Hey folks, I seem to have picked up a couple of noticeable scratches on my bangle js 2. I believe the screen is glass, does anybody know if it's the kind you can sand down and if so what would be best for this? It works perfectly but the scratches are annoying. I don't fancy warming the glue up and opening things to replace the screen manually.

  Thanks!

  Ooo the f droid version if bangle js gadgetbridge works! I have to grant the additional permissions for notifications that are blocked but default. I guess the F droid build uses a lower android SDK target than the Google Play one which can work around the windows permission thing?

  thanks, I'll see where I can dig out both of those in graphene OS. I think it's the "open new windows" thing I don't have an option for.

  Interesting that you had the same issue. I don't have exactly the same permissions layout on graphene os - can you tell me exactly what permission you turned on under "other permissions"? I can raise with the graphene team and see if they hide those or if there's a way to access them on their forums. Thanks!

  Hey there, I'm using the bangle js gadgetbridge app from google play on my pixel 8a running graphene os and when I trigger the "find my phone" function the notification pops up but no sound plays unless I unlock the phone, click the notification and open the app. I have granted gadgetbridge all permissions included "draw over other apps" but I think it may be missing a few from its requested set.

  For one, the companion pairing options appear to be missing in this version of the app and are required in the docs: https://gadgetbridge.org/basics/pairing/companion-device/

  For another, it looks like we need the the "open windows in the background" permission but the app isn't requesting this? https://codeberg.org/Freeyourgadget/Gadgetbridge/issues/3309

  Has anybody else had a similar issue and did you resolve it? If not, is there a drift between normal gadgetbridge and the bangle js version in terms of features being requested in android?

  Thanks!

  Plus 1 for adding buttons. You don't need loads but 1 just isn't quite enough. I agree re the square screen and I'd prefer better waterproofing to the barometer personally. A few more colors on the screen would be helpful when it comes to reading widgets etc as small ones get harder to differentiate due to the lack of contrast/different colors.

  A slightly faster GPS lock would be nice but I assume that can be mitigated with AGPS anyway.

  Thank you, if I get the problem again I will try that. For now I'll stick with companion app time syncing.
