Hi guys,
After many hours and days of searching google for a solution to this I'm still stumped.
I have a Galaxy S i9000 running Gingerbread 2.3.3 (had same problem with previous versions also) and I am trying to connect it to my Nokia 616 car kit in "hands free" mode, however, it keeps automatically connecting via "remote sim mode". I can confirm there is no way to disable rSAP (remote sim mode) through the nokia 616, nokia staff were not very helpful either.
There was an option in my old Samsung Jet (i think it was running touchwiz) bluetooth settings which allowed me to switch remote sim mode on and off. The only setting that exists on my SGS is after I connect to the nokia 616 i get the "Deactivate Remote Sim Mode?" option from the drop down bar... However, when I do so, the connection to the car kit is lost and upon reconnect it automatically connects using "Remote Sim Mode", regardless of how many times i try an "deactivate" it...
The only posts I could find about deactivating remote sim mode tell me to hit "Yes" to "Deactivate Remote Sim Mode", then to switch bluetooth off and then on. This does not solve my issue. Problem persists.
The only thing I can think of now is somehow finding perhaps a command line instruction that I can run from terminal to disable remote sim mode or even change a config file somewhere to deactivate it.
Does anybody have any idea how this can be done or maybe just give me a lead on where I can search next, I've hit a dead end with this now and im sure it can be done, somehow.
Thanks heaps for your help.
I'm sorry I cannot help you with this problem, but at least you're not the only one: I have exactly the same problem, but then with a Nokia 616 and a Galaxy S2.
I want it to connect with the normal HFP, so I do not loose the internet connectivity on my phone...
SOLVED Finally!
So after a while of searching then giving up, then contemplating ripping out my nokia 616 car kit and setting it on fire, I decided to revisit this issue and here is how I managed to disable/remove/deactivate remote sim mode or rsap... please note that I havnt really tested to see if this affects any other bluetooth functionality (i dont think it does though) so do at your own risk...
I ended up flashing my galaxy s with Darkys rom 10.2 extreme edition which gave me some nifty options of removing some stock bluetooth apps... I noticed there were a number of bluetooth related apps there, Bluetooth.apk , BluetoothOpp.apk, BluetoothPbap.apk, BluetoothTestMode.apk and the devil himself BrcmBluetoothServices.apk... at first i uninstalled them all except Bluetooth.apk, my phone starting throwing some bluetooth error which was expected, these errors disappeared after I rebooted the phone... I noticed that the 616 no longer connected using rSap (victory!), however, I was almost certain that not all of the apps i removed above would be causing the issue, and im sure that if anything having them removed would cause issues elsewhere so the process of elimination began... I reinstalled them all again, rebooted my phone, sure enough remote sim mode was back, then one by one i uninstalled, rebooted, tested, etc etc untill i came to the conclusion that the app responsible to rSap was in fact BrcmBluetoothServices.apk, after uninstalling it and rebooting Hands Free mode works a treat, I still get a "download error" when i try to download my contacts to the 616 but Im not to fussed about it, at least i can still use all the functionality of my phone in my car now, internet etc etc... as mentioned earlier I dont know if this will have any effect on the other uses for bluetooth so do be careful, not a huge issue because it can be easily reinstalled if nessecary using DarkysRom Tool...
Now I am sure this can be done on a stock firmware, you would most definitely need to root the phone and then find some sort of system app manager to hunt down BrcmBluetoothServices.apk and remove it...
Thats it! If anybody can work out how to successfully download contacts to the nokia 616 please post it here or pm me.
Hello,
You guys know the old landline cabled phones ? So I still got one.
My problem is, i don`t know who`s calling me.
Its connected to the same router as my PC and my Z1.
On my PC i have found a program thats called NCID.NET. It shows me who is actually calling me. Everytime someone calls me, it shows the full
number on my pc Well nice, but my pc doesn`t run all the time, so i always miss a few calls
What i thought, my xperia Z1 is always running and connected to WiFi when i`m at home. Why couldn`t it show me, who is calling there?
I`ve been searching for an app like this a long time now but haven`t found nothing.
Maybe someone could point me where to look at, send me a link, or maybe if this kind of app doesn`t exist for android...- create one ?
I have got an Easybox router from Vodafone in germany.
Thanks
Kindest Regards
hello every one , i bought the Z1 about 3 weeks a go and there is something bothering me :
I just noticed a rainbow dot on the screen i don't know what it is or what could cause it but i think its been there from the beginning could that be a problem ?
another thing is the wifi direct ,i tried to connect it to my friend's samsung s4 and it just wont work i connect but when i try to send anything it tells me it has to end connection to start another one then nothing happens and i cant send ..
should i go to the store and try to replace it or what
thank you
For the Rainbow Dot? Yes.
For the WiFi Direct, No. It's a common issue between Sony and Samsung. Try Bluetooth too, or use a 3th party app.
Hello all!
I must say, this watch is a very nice toy to play with and very handy in meetings! I have used the watch for a few days now, but I (only) have 2 issues to be solved which I cannot seem to find the answer yet:
1. The watch is connected to my phone OK (all notifications come through all the time). However, when I say "OK google" and then for instance "show me my steps" or "show me the weather", it will go to a screen saying me the connection is offline (white logo on blue background on the top of the screen). When I dismiss that message, I see that my connection is still OK! Weird .... this happens to me practically 80-90% of the times .... on a very rare occasion it succeeds to show me the info I want. By the way, my internet connection is OK at that time.
2. I have my phone also connected with BT to my Volvo V40 (2013). However, with the watch also on BT, the carkit of my Volvo is now almost useless as the voice is completely messed up (from the caller to me, and from me to the caller), sounds very intermittend or something. It seems like the BT connection is not happy with having 2 devices to be connected at the same time. My phone is an iNew V3 ... could it be something with BT profiles or versions?
I have already tried to reset the watch, re-install wear on my phone, deleted the dalvik cache (phone), un-installed apps, but no luck. Anybody have a clue on the above?
Maybe your Wifi/3G connexion is in sleeping mode and is too long to unsleep ? the watch can not connect so quickly ?
You sound like having BT reception issues on the phone. This behaviour might be triggered by the bluetooth interface itself (on the phone - bad design) or by bad drivers (also on the phone) or by interferences from the wifi module. Is your wifi on all the time?
Regular wifi is on 2.4GHz, the same frequency as BT. Wifi, however, uses more Rx/Tx power compared to BT so, under certain bad antenna designs, WiFi can just mess-up BT.
On my phone (Z1C) is the other way around: having BT ON will cause bad performance on 2.4GHz WiFi .... so I just stopped using the 2.4 band for WiFi.
Give it a try, Worst case scenario: use another phone.
Hi guys,
Thanks for the reply. About the first idea ... well if I have my phone on the charger and already switched on, it still happens. So there I assume the 3G / wifi connection is already on and this issue will not be due to the delay of switching the data connection on. Am I right?
Second option: my wifi is switched on all the time, you are right. I will try to experiment a little bit with it, let's see if that will make a difference. And, changing the phone ... hmmm well that would be a very high impact of course. My iNew V3 actually works very well ...
I am still a bit struggling with accepting it is my phone causing this issue ... only with the voice regocognition I have this issue ... with all other commands and apps the connection is OK! Only with the "OK google" option it says "offline" ... and immediately (I do not see the colored circle). To me it looks more like a but in the software or something, but after 3 resets of the device I also cannot believe that ...
Any more options? Thanks!

Update: i tried several things with the WIFI / BT settings and on/off, but no luck. I have forwarded the above issues to Google, maybe they can help me out. I will keep you informed ... in the meantime anybody else some useful tips? Thanks!!!

I am using a iNew V3 on KitKat with the 1.13 official version (however from needrom). Would that be the issue?

try to pair your watch with your friend phone and to check this is not a problem coming from your phone. sometimes certain kernel do have issue with some of the bluetooth device.
Hello everyone. Sorry for my English, because I am using a translator. I decided to write this post, because it happened to me the same trouble and I found her cause. In anticipation of its Nexus 6, I decided to temporarily buy fairly cheap option LG G60 (X135). When watch came to me, I noticed the same problem. I then tried to connect them to the Moto G (1st generation), and there is the same. but by chance, in the evening, in my hands was LG G90 and I connected watch to this phone. Everything works without any problem. it turns out that despite the declared characteristics (Bluetooth 4.0) in all devices, it works quite differently everywhere. I hope with Nexus no problems.
Hi all, after opening this thread I tried several things and have some new insights:
- new update (5.0.1) solved my issue with going "offline" after a voice command. Now it works perfectly! But only if I am not connected to my carkit.
- if my watch is connected and try to use the carkit the sound is still bad. So I would like to have my watch disconnected if my carkit connects:
-- this could be done by only allowing 1 device to pair with my phone and prioritize carkit to be first and watch to be second.
-- this could be done by actively unpairing the watch if I receive a call (and connect when call is over).
The first option would be the most reliable and most simple. I tried to find an app that restricts only having 1 pairing and having a prioritize option ... but I cannot find such app. People any options?
Thanks!
Hi guys, in response of the above, the app TRIGGER might do the job, but it seems closing the Android Wear app or disconnect via Bluetooth does NOT disconnect your watch! Has anybody succeeded in using TRIGGER to disconnect / connect the watch with a automatic job?
Hi,
When I connect my P9 to my home WiFi, I've got "no internet connexion"'. But I'm successfully connected to the WiFi.
I've tried factory reset and even replaced my phone by a new one (thanks to my phone company which saw no other solution) and I still have the same issue...
On another free open wifi, it works (but it has no protection).
I tried a lot of different wifi protection (WPA2 PSK/TKIP, WPA-PSK/TKIP, WPA2-PSK, WEP and so on...), I tied to switch channel, nothing changed..
Any idea ??? Am I cursed and got a second broken phone ?
Thanks for any help provided...
Edit : Problem solved, I made a factory reset of my internet modem. It wasn't the phone (I had the same issue with another android device)
