Power data from bike not transmitted anymore to Garmin Watch (iConsole005+ & Forerunner745 & Samsung Galaxy A40)

Open FerdinLi opened this issue 3 years ago • 88 comments

Describe the bug From version 2.8.142 my bike is not recognised as a power sensor in my garmin Forerunner 745. In the previous version PWR sensor and SPD sensor were available in my garmin watch.

I tried to play around with the setting, however no succes.

Current settings:

Ant+ options -> Ant+Cadans = on Toorx/Iconsol options -> Toorx/iConsole Bike = on Experimental features -> Simulate battery service, virtual device and bike power sensor is on. Tried several on/off configurations here but without success. In one occasion garmin showed PWR Galaxy A40 but couldn't connect.

I can change resistance with QZ app on my Samsun Galaxy A40 and see all the metrics from the iConsole005+ bike, however no sensor detection anymore with my Garmin Watch.

To Reproduce See above

Expected behavior See above

@FerdinLi i don't see the debug log. Please attach one, as described in the link that i provided. Thanks

Hi, attached the log file.

FerdinLi avatar Jan 04 '22 10:01 FerdinLi

With the actual settings, @FerdinLi , you're sending FTMS information to your watch by bluetooth, and power information by ANT+. I guess you want to enable the "Bike Power Sensor" in the experimental settings and restart QZ in order to send Power Sensor over bluetooth, too?

I didn't modifiy anything in the ant implementation or the bluetooth one. Let me know if you will fix it with this modification. Are you using QZ standalone with your watch? Without Zwift isn't it?

another thing @FerdinLi in the log you paused the workout instead of start it, so the wattage will be 0 to the watch, maybe this is your issue?

cagnulein avatar Jan 04 '22 10:01 cagnulein

The watch doesn't see PWR sensor anymore in the watch menu sensors and acc. If watt would be zero, then this would have shown on watch. Watch Garmin doesn't recognise, can pick up power signal from app, Will upload new log file. Thanks for your swift support!

FerdinLi avatar Jan 04 '22 10:01 FerdinLi

In the add sensor menu also only ANT sensors are listed, meaning that watch doesn't receive BT signal from QZ app or phone.

FerdinLi avatar Jan 04 '22 10:01 FerdinLi

did you try to download one app on the play store that simulate power sensor from your phone just to check that ant+ is working on your phone?

cagnulein avatar Jan 04 '22 10:01 cagnulein

New log file. Searched sensors several times with my watch during this bike session, no PWR sensor was found. (Except for my HR belt BT and Ant+)

See screenshot attached. I think this is the one you ar referring to.

ANT Mogelijk = ANT possible / App = ANT tester

FerdinLi avatar Jan 04 '22 11:01 FerdinLi

no @FerdinLi i mean there are several free app on the store that can simulate a fake ant sensor in order to check that ant is working with your watch (you have to see fake values on the watch too). This will test the full chain

cagnulein avatar Jan 04 '22 11:01 cagnulein

Hi ANT is working on my watch because I can connect a ANT HR sensor to it and receive values.

FerdinLi avatar Jan 04 '22 11:01 FerdinLi

Can I roll back to previous version of the QZ app? This worked just fine.

FerdinLi avatar Jan 04 '22 11:01 FerdinLi

yes but you didn't test the phone to watch chain. Please test it, we have to be sure about the full chain. I didn't touch anything in the software, so FIRST we have to be sure about HW. Thanks

if you want i can send you it via private beta, let me check just to double check it

cagnulein avatar Jan 04 '22 11:01 cagnulein

Thanks

FerdinLi avatar Jan 04 '22 11:01 FerdinLi

click here to become a private beta https://play.google.com/apps/testing/org.cagnulen.qdomyoszwift You will see the version 2.6 in the store (i never tried to downgrade, so i don't know if it will work). Otherwise we have to understand which is the issue in the current one

cagnulein avatar Jan 04 '22 11:01 cagnulein

Hi, I used the link but it installed version 2.9.27. With this version the same problem; no PWR and SPD sensor recognised by my Garmin Watch. Something must have changed in comparison to version 2.6 where everything worked just fine. I am not a developer, nor do I have technical skills. Could you do a test at your side with a Garmin watch to see if you receive PWR sensor on your watch? Very frustrating that it isn't working anymore. The only thing that has changed is update from 2.6 to new version. All other software and hardware remained the same. Hoping for a solution. Kind regards.

FerdinLi avatar Jan 04 '22 14:01 FerdinLi

@FerdinLi it's strange because i added in a private group with version 2.6, let me check again

cagnulein avatar Jan 04 '22 14:01 cagnulein

any chance that you had already joined the beta before clicking on the above link? the list on google is right. I also checked the APK and the ANT thing is there. I don't have any ANT device anymore. Maybe you need to forgot the previous power sensor from the watch? Also a question: why you're using this solution? You can't just upload the fit file in the garmin connect in order to have stats on garmin?

cagnulein avatar Jan 04 '22 14:01 cagnulein

I don't know I have joined the beta first. I just clicked the link and went to PlayStore. Did I do something wrong? Which list on google you are referring to?

FerdinLi avatar Jan 04 '22 15:01 FerdinLi

@FerdinLi the private list of the beta that i manage on the play store...check also my previous comment about the fit file

cagnulein avatar Jan 04 '22 15:01 cagnulein

The reason why I link my watch because Garmin Watch uses power to calculate some FirstBeat metrics and these are only calculated on the watch and with power input. That's the reason.

FerdinLi avatar Jan 04 '22 15:01 FerdinLi

Firstbeat metrics that are being calculated on watch with PWR input are VO2max bike and workout label.

FerdinLi avatar Jan 04 '22 15:01 FerdinLi

let's do this, do another test with the current version and at the end collect a bug report from the settings of the phone. In this way we should have more debug log information about ANT+ and your issue

cagnulein avatar Jan 04 '22 15:01 cagnulein

Which list you are referring to on Google. I do not see the list with previous versions. How can I acces this?

FerdinLi avatar Jan 04 '22 15:01 FerdinLi

a list of tester. I added to the 2.6 but google is forcing you the new one...but let's try to understand in the current on

cagnulein avatar Jan 04 '22 15:01 cagnulein

Hi there, any resolution @FerdinLi ? I am having same issue. Tried to attach debug log here.
