Motorola Motoactv :: Get Rid Of Connect / Disconnect Notification?
May 17, 2012
How to get rid of the connect / disconnect notifications in an Android phone that is paired with a motoactv? The app was notifying me every 15 mins about getting and loosing connections to the Motoactv. Was driving me nuts so I killed the app.
Today I received a second-hand iphone 3GS to replace a 4s which I lost.
Upon receipt, the phone displayed an image of a usb connector and an itunes logo suggesting that I need to connect to itunes before use.Â
When I attach the phone to a toshiba satellite C50 laptop it connects and immediately disconnects with an audible tone. This connect/disconnect cycle repeats every second or so and never ends.Â
If I connect the phone whilst powered down, hold the power button and home button together for 10 secs and then hold the home button only to enter restore mode, the phone connects to itunes and I get the option to restore. However, the restore always fails.Â
I have tried connecting using two seperate USB cables - I am not sure if either is genuine. There is no effect.Â
I have tried disabling USB controllers individually within device manager. There is no effect.Â
I have tried different USB ports/ There is no effect.Â
While connected, the phone appears in the device manager intermittently, appearing and disappearing as the phone connects/disconnects.Â
I just bought a new 8GB watch and connect with my Android 4.0.3 phone. When an incoming call, the watch shows the caller ID correctly but no notification sound. In setup, I have selected play a notification tone.
So now i only get started, paused, and completed voice notification...and only when pressing the button. I used to have like mid way and when i completed the miles...I have the voice notification on...
I just bought this devices and when i plug it into the computer via the USB cord, I get an error message saying that "Your MOTOACTV device cannot connect to the internet". It then tells me to check my security software to ensure that it has permission to communicate through any firewall. I have done this and it still wont connect.
I got a Motoactv 16Gb (software version is MA 1.7.10 N16) and is been impossible to connect with a Garmin Premium Heart Rate Monitor (010-10997-02). I had tried everything from Motoactv factory reset to wet the HRM. Until now nothing work and still waiting to use my Motoactv. From this Forum I had read some comments on great connectivity between motoactv and this HRM.
I've been trying to access support from Motorola about my device's inability to connect to the internet and create a Motocast ID. It is now not even giving me error messages, and Motocast isn't starting up anymore when I plug it into my computer. I don't have wi-fi as that would involve having to buy a TV and various other unneeded things to get a wi-fi package, so I use a dongle for my internet. I am really unhappy about the service from Motorola and the fact that they've released a great idea before it's actually ready to be used.
The way I understand it, the device is supposed to connect to the computer like a USB mass storage device and then autorun the motocast software, however there appears to be absolutely no support online for what happens if the device doesn't show up on the computer as a USB mass storage device. Mine completely fails to register with the computer other then to produce the BUH DUH sound that Windows makes when a USB device is connected or dissconected.
My computer is running Windows 7, I've tried rebooting the computer, installing motocast off the internet and rebooting, I've tried different cables, different ports, I've rebooted the device multiple times, nothing seems to work.
Can Anybody please tell me why my MOTOACTV doesn't like to connect to GPS? My distances and times are WAY off. I would estimate that 30% of my runs have connected. I tried today, with a clear shot of the sky without a cloud to be seen and it wouldn't work. I wasn't moving and have the MOTOACTV on my arm. I waited for 2 full cycles while it tried to connect. I am sick of it. The time is set correctly on the unit to Daylight Central Time. It is giving me the correct time. The portal doesn't seem to have the option for a Daylight Central Time. It should still work. I am really getting fed up of the chats with support, only to be told I need to call and have it taken care of. I even told Matt about this a couple of weeks ago. I got no response from him. What is going on with this? When it works, it works well. If this wasn't a gift, I would return it and hope for a better outcome with a new one (no receipt).
I have recently purchased a motoactv which works great, but when I try and connect it to a computer it doesn't connect properly. The initial connection via usb managed to install the USB Composite Device driver, but failed to install the Motorola Networking Interface and the Motorola ADB Interface. Nothing else happens. Whenever I connect or disconnect I do get the notification sound, but again nothing else. It does not even appear in my computer. I tried system restore to a previous point to remove the drivers and try again, but on the initial connection of the device exactly the same thing happened again. I have tried installing motocast but have had no results with that either.
I can't get this device to work behind a proxy server. When I connect the device to my computer (at work) it says it can't connect but there is a "proxy settings" button. I click it, I fill out the appropriate information, it doesn't work. I try several variations, it doesn't work. How to be able to successfully connect the device behind a proxy server?
i've searched and have tried everything possible.*connecting the device to either a PC or MAC, after having factory reset it multiple times, does NOTHING. device isn't seen, nothing mounts, nothing at all.i've tried:- uninstall/re-install motocast with device connected AND disconnected.- let win7 install drivers BEFORE motocast install (just plugging device in).- install motocast BEFORE letting windows install drivers (uninstalled everything, reinstalled motocast before plugging device in).- all of the above steps on both PC and MAC.- all motocast files/installs are of the latest versions directly from motorola's website.this is getting insanely annoying. is there something i'm forgetting to install? motocast includes the wireless and USB connectivity, correct?
*also, after installing motocast THEN connecting my device, the motorola adb interface driver attempts to install a second time but fails - it succeeds when installing motocast initially. i'm assuming this is where my issue lies as far as my computer seeing the device. when searching for the driver, though, i'm simply instructed to download motocast.
I alternate between wireless (bluetooth) and wired headphones. Today when I tried to connect my wireless headphones, a pop-up message appeared telling me to first disconnect my wired headphones. The problem is that I had no wired headphones connected. I tried connecting/removing the wired headphones, rebooting, etc., but I am still unable to connect the wireless headphones.
As a FYI, this started to occur at the same time I received a message telling me to connect my device to receive an update, but when I connect to my computer I get a message that I am up to date.
I have a problem with the WiFi in my mobile it is Android 4.0.4. When I try to connect to a WPA2 secured WiFi the mobile try to connect about 5 seconds. Then it disconnect and scan and it keeps trying to connect and disconnect and scan.
Every single time I connect my watch to the computer via USB cable I get this "Connection Error": "Your MotoActv device cannot connect to the internet if your computer requires a proxy to reach the internet, please click proxy settings." Then I click the "Try Again" button and it successfully connects. This happens every time without fail. It's annoying. Can that be fixed?
I have not been able to connect to my router and keep getting the error incorrect password or other error.I have tried power cycling my router, removing the password, changing the password to something simpler and motoactv stlil cannot connect.I am 100% sure the password is correct and all my other devices can connect to the router fine as well.
Is there a way to connect to a bluetooth device that requires a code to be entered? I am trying to connect to my Microsoft Sync radio so I can stream music. The MA detects the Sync but when I click on it it just says connection fails. The Sync requires that you enter a code so I assume this is the reason for the connection failure.
So just in the last few days my phone has started having some issues. I got a Powerbot wireless charger(PB1020) about the same time I got my phone at release. It's worked fine , and still does as far as I know. But know, after my phone is fully charged, when I remove it from the charger it's pretty warm(this is a new development, not really had it get very warn on the wireless charger before) and then it begins to connect and disconnect from the wifi repeatedly. I'm talking like every second it switches. I keep seeing people saying to turn off Smart Network Switch, but I did that the second day I had my phone, and it's still off, so obviously its something else.
Am I the only one that gets these errors everytime I connect? I just click "try again" on the first message, then I click past the second message and then it works, but it seems odd. I don't have anything special on my network, it's just a basic cable modem with a wireless router and my computer connects via wireless. See attached for errors
Is there a certain sequence to disconnecting HDMI from streaming video over the internet?I used it this weekend to stream a show from the internet and when I disconnect (pulled the HDMI cable out) it still says HDMI connection detected. The icon up in the notification bar doesn't go away unless I reboot the phone.
rapid recurrence of the "Disconnected Unplug your charger from the outlet to conserve energy" pop-up message on their Atrix homescreen? The last few days I've been getting this pop-up message quite often (every couple of seconds to sometimes a minute or so apart) while the phone is still plugged into the A/C wall charger. Occasionally it will remain on the screen for minutes at a time, and in fact one time I was able to catch a screenshot of it. The charge cycle is usually complete (90% to 100% indicated). Everything is stock - battery, wall charger, and non-rooted phone on 2.3.6. This is not a loose connection, as I've checked that. It seems to have started occurring around the time the Market was replaced with Google Play Store, and the subsequent update to 3.4.7 which fixed the App Drawer icon issue. Don't know why this would cause what I'm seeing, but just though I'd mention it.
I have a weird issue that keeps popping up. Occasionally, I pull the power from my phone and the battery indicator says that it is still charging. If I shut the phone down, it will boot right back up because it thinks the power is connected. It doesn't do this all the time but when it does, my battery goes into a serious drain. I also have noticed that once in awhile, when the phone comes out of nighttime power saving, 3G don't come back and the battery drains big time.
