LEMFO LEM7 - Discussion thread

barnowl · May 28, 2018, 10:30am

I was able to set Dutch language in Google maps so my voice navigation works now, But I still would like to be able to get Dutch systemwide…
another strange thing is that my walking in the watch gave at first very erratic numbers, after the walk it said 235 meters while I walked 6 km’s!
But later in the afternoon it gave the exact distance… Maybe retarded GPS input?

Anyway, I like the watch more and more…

Yes, it’s a problem to be addressed in a new update.
Great idea though

This morning my lem7 arrived. The smatr version xD By now There are no Problems. Works perfect with watch Droid. O2 Germany works with 4G I loved my les1 but now it feels like slow old crab in comparison.
Les1 charging dock does not Work with it.
Speaker is loud enough even If the placement is a bit unexpected.

Nice watch!

Can you make a quick compaeo? I received my lem7 and have an les1. Not a fan of the large/huge black bezel of the lem7…

Who gets an unsecured wlan network called “NVRAM warning: Err…” in the wifi networks overview :-o

Hi! I got a second lem7, and they do not turn on the display with a wave of his hand.“Hand bright screen on”.

What can be done? Thanks

I do. I figured that was a problem with some implementations of Android with some Wi-Fi hardware. I have a cheap cell phone for testing and it does the same thing while everything else that I have don't.

NVRAM warning means that the the WiFi MAC address details are not written in the the NVRAM partition correctly.
Again, a firmware update will fix it. It actually has no effect on the watch at all but is a bit annoying.

Same problem here.

pablo: Is there an estimate of time on the new firmware?

The new sensors in the watch work slightly differently to the usual watches. You can install Eric's launcher and use it's built in motion function.

Not yet, but it should not be too long. The basic functionality is ok. Just needs tweaking…

barnowl · May 28, 2018, 10:22pm

Great! Waiting eagerly…

Played around with WiiWatch2 yesterday with native connect software on Lem7. Has anyone been able to suppress notifications for system apps? Does not seem to be possible through WiiWatch 2 UI.

If you are using Android you can go to the app notification section on the phone app and disable all the unnecessary notifications.

Unfortunately IOS support is not good at the moment…
Thanks Pablo. Works for the non-system apps but can’t seem to find any of the system apps in there? e.g. Google Maps not listed?

pablo11 · May 29, 2018, 6:09am

Ok, thanks.
I will add this to my list.
I’m finding out a bunch of stuff so that we can make a firmware update that addresses most if not all of these issues at once.
Thanks for your help and I strongly encourage everyone to make any issues know, here in this thread.
So that I can gather all the information.
Cheers
Pablo.

Pablo, did you get the Fitness tracking not supported by GPS? I saw this on a youtube film but I was not able to check this myself…

I have not seen any information regarding the fitness app being ABLE to use GPS. My understanding is that it is not possible and it is something that I need to discuss with LEMFO. The reason for this is that the brand would have to invest in a developer to redisign the fitness application or integrate a completely different application. So I have to go back to them and talk about it.

Cheers
Pablo.

Well, this proboard seems to be the only way to get the support you want with a watch like this. I had my discussion with Banggood ending with a $10.00 refund.
It seems they didn’t get a fit explanation by the watchmakers so they gave me ten bucks… This is for this forum as contribution because of your support!

ashishaggarwal007 · May 29, 2018, 6:57pm

Hi Pablo,

I hope you and your wife are doing well. I was just exploring this forum and read about you being the caregiver. Wish her Strength!!

For watch - I am using it now for 4 days, and have few questions:

What is the best way to get the screen on raising/tilting the wrist - it works very sporadically.
What’s this ‘Hand on Bright’ mode?
Is there a way to keep the watch display ‘Always on’?.. Without pressing the side red button. I would like to use it while keeping minimal brightness to save on battery - especially when mobile connectivity is of lesser importance (Airplane mode), than ‘looking at the watch to read time’
Do you agree with the thoughts of other members here that if I set the watch network as 3G, then the battery consumption would be lower (than 4G)?
I am not impatient about the Bluetooth calling, or firmware update currently - so, please take your time that you need it getting it right

Thanks,
Ashish

Suggest you try going back to page 17 and reading the posts to help with hand bright mode or otherwise known as Gesture mode.

I am checking about the language and I'll update you soon. Google fit will install but I very much doubt that it will communicate with the sensors on this watch. Splen - have you found any fitness apps that you would recommend for the LEM7?

Jog Tracker Pro
