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

[FerdinLi]

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]

Hi, attached the log file.

[cagnulein]

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?

[cagnulein]

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?

[FerdinLi]

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]

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

[cagnulein]

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?

[FerdinLi]

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+)

[FerdinLi]

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

[FerdinLi]

ANT Mogelijk = ANT possible / App = ANT tester

[cagnulein]

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

[FerdinLi]

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

[FerdinLi]

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

[cagnulein]

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

[cagnulein]

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

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

[FerdinLi]

Thanks

[cagnulein]

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

[FerdinLi]

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.

[cagnulein]

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

[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?

[FerdinLi]

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?

[cagnulein]

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

[FerdinLi]

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]

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

[cagnulein]

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

[FerdinLi]

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

[cagnulein]

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

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

[BrettPrintz]

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

Hi Brett, no solution yet. Thanks for sharing the debug log. Hope this will be solved soon. Cheers, FerdinLi

[cagnulein]

@BrettPrintz checking your log this seems the issue

I'm trying to understand what it means

[cagnulein]

@BrettPrintz also are you sure that during this log you have ant heart or ant cadence on in the QZ settings? i can't see the entry point to the java library..it seems that i'm not starting the ANT engine

[FerdinLi]

Hi, in my settings the ant+ cadance is enabled, not the heart ant+. However in version 2.6 this setting worked just fine.

[FerdinLi]

@BrettPrintz , thanks again for the vavluable log file. Really appreciate it. Kr, FerdinLi

[cagnulein]

@FerdinLi yeah i know but i need to be sure about the @BrettPrintz log because i have to study his case since i have the bug report from him :)

[FerdinLi]

👍

[BrettPrintz]

Hi All,

We must be opposite time zones (Canada here). Yes ANT+ is on for both heart and cadence.... as well never had a problem before on the earlier version either.

Thanks

Hi

Yes, sorry I responded by email... ANT+ is enabled for cadence and Heart. I didnt have issues in earlier version either.

Thank you!

[BrettPrintz]

Hi, any update?

I just updated my Garmin to new software of 20.30 and was hopeful maybe it was a Garmin bug, but to no luck.

[cagnulein]

@BrettPrintz i will let you know. I'm overwhelmed by requests (as you can see here on github). You're on my list. I just need time :)

[BrettPrintz]

Thank you! sorry :)

@BrettPrintz i tried today with my Xiaomi Mi3 and the ANT+ works as expected. So i don't really know what could be the issue. But i would like to do another experiment on your end if it's possible.

Are you able to connect your smartphone by USB to your pc and collect USB log with this https://www.hexnode.com/mobile-device-management/help/obtain-android-device-logs-using-windows-and-mac/

Let me know

[BrettPrintz]

@cagnulein You connected via ANT+ to your Garmin? or other smartwatch?

ill follow the link and see if I can do it.

[cagnulein]

@BrettPrintz As I told you before I don't have ant device To test the communication between my phone Unfortunately. So I just saw in the log that the library outputs the data correctly over ant As it did in the past

So my only hope is that probably on your device something differ from mine

[BrettPrintz]

Ok strange, im not sure what changed.

My samsung s8 has on board ANT+, and I have an ANT + dongle for my pixel and ipad and both worked previously up until december, hmm

[BrettPrintz]

Hi @cagnulein @FerdinLi I have found some success. I went into QZ, and disabled both ANT+ cadence and ANT+ HR. I then restarted the app. I then went into setting and enabled just ANT+ cadence. I then went to my GARMIN (fenix 6 pro) and searched for sensor and it found Power - QZ and Speed QZ right away. Power works great but speed is still transmitted oddly to Garmin.

I then tried this same procedure on my Pixel 2XL (via ANT+dongle) and it did NOT work. However, I will take the Samsung s8 for my rides, so im still happy!

Not sure the issue, if just needed a reset or what.

[cagnulein]

Speed is always reports bad metrics on ant. It's here from day one as an issue.

Glad that you see something! Let's see if it's robust now :)

Hi, no luck for me ;-( Followed the steps as described by Brett, but still no sensor is found. I restart the app just by closing it via the Android app overview. Then tap the app to open it again. What am I doing wrong?

[BrettPrintz]

hi @FerdinLi I am not sure. I did the same thing.

What device are you using QZ on?
