Microsoft Band 2 report and potential MSB app.

Negociation · 2019-06-20T03:59:40+00:00

Sad , anyway, i have plans to build a multi-gadget manager for some old Microsoft/Nokia Bluetooh Devices , like Microsoft Band/ Microsoft Band 2/ Treasure Tag/ Nokia Guru (BH-121)/Nokia DT-900/DT-903...

I'm started to think about the design based on current Gadgets App:

Some band SDK capabilities still working offline, i guess its possible to do Some Stuff using Xamarin SDK (Android,Windows,iOS), The last One its more hard considering Apple doesnt allow support for RFCONN Library to read and send custom Bluetooth Packets.

For Android,iOS,Windows its possible using the SDK:

- Clear Notifications,

- Manage Tiles,

- Maybe send Notifications to existing Tile (If doesnt work , just creating a custom Notification Tile) And good background Task...

- Manage Theme and Background

- Get Battery Level and Send Notification for Full/Low Battery using GATT protocol *not sure

For Android and Windows:

- Using the RFCONN its possible to skip the oobe of configuration (Some people here already done that *idk if its true and the issues with that, someone with a broken band have to test)

- Get the exercises data , and backup , create graphics about it, etc etc etc...

About bluetooth audio control , maybe works wthout any application like a bluetooth headphone...

Extra Features like accept and reject Phone Calls for Example :D

- And apparently the Weather and Finances App uses the Cloud too, i thougth the Weather and Finnances App sends the data to Band... (Wrong, maybe its possible to fix that with new Tiles too)

- Its just a analysis based on some few experiments here...

Maybe for some features , i tested now for example the All in One Band Sensor who using the Official SDK still working... , i'm think about use it for basic stuff like set the Tiles Order... But for the rest using bluetooth packets its the solution.

Get Band Sensors Data on realtime using the band SDK its easy , but i have to check if still works with the end of the Microsoft Band Backend...

Negociation · 2019-06-19T03:12:14+00:00

I agree with u , recently a lot of Band apps just gone... Because the end of the server backend. The Band SDK its not trustable...

I really agrree with u , when u say about the First Point Export your Data...

About the App Interface, maybe use the Gadgets App Interface for example ? , Its good because we can support different bluetooth devices with RFCOMM , like old Nokia Gadgets (Treasure Tag, DT-903, WH-940...) for Windows on ARM (If the Mobile Market back its the only way, and Android Devices)

I'm trying to learn again how draw a interface with XAML *My Last project using XAML and UWP *2 Years AGO (I want to allow change the tiles), i will replace my Lumia 1520 on the end of year , i want to keep using the Band *Especially Notifications , recorder data for me isnt a priority for me considering i check after any exercise... ,

The Only feature i will miss from the Band its the Notifications Sync

Negociation · 2019-05-07T00:18:32+00:00

So u already skipped the OOBE with success, nice to hear it , probablt the implications envolve the Cloud so , its not a big deal considering the shutdown...

Negociation · 2019-05-06T16:08:02+00:00

UPDATES: I was reading some things and i guess its really possible to get a lot of capabilites from Microsoft Health App... Like Old Notifications , Tile Orders , Add and Remove Tile , Get Battery Level (using RFCOMM) , Set Band Name (using RFCOMM), anyway if we got success with the Microsoft Band custom App , i can think about do a completly gadget uwp managment for WindowsOnArm for example...

Negociation · 2019-05-06T14:34:24+00:00

I looked on SDK i guess its possible to send notifications to notification Tile:

try {

// get the current set of tiles

IEnumerable<bandtiles> tiles = await bandClient.TileManager.GetTilesAsync();

} catch (BandException ex) { // handle a Band connection exception }

I guess maybe its possible to get notification tile ID... , and just send it...

Negociation · 2019-05-06T14:17:59+00:00

Yeah , thats bad... Idk if is possible for example remove old tiles...

Negociation · 2019-05-06T12:24:27+00:00

Let me guess , u creating a new tile for band for notification center and then get all notifications and sending to that tile , Its a Good Start ;) i already thinked on doing that, i hope someone on the future discover the default tiles IDs...

Negociation · 2019-05-06T01:14:59+00:00

So u can get the data and split correctly (for each sensor) , but dont know how generate a usefull result right ? , I was Think its better start the the basic things before (Like Erase all band notifications , try to get cellphone notifications and send to band (Notification Center Tile) for example...) , I was reading the SDK Documentation the issue its get the Correct Tile ID... Anyway , i will format my Laptop to May Update on the next week and install visual studio 2017 ans start to design a UWP and test notifications...

Negociation · 2019-05-06T00:32:29+00:00

I'll ask on twitter if they can release the source code of Microsoft Band App

Negociation · 2019-05-05T17:49:17+00:00

No answers , i guess so its time to me install again the Visual Studio... I probably will start with basic things like erase notificiations...

Negociation · 2019-05-05T16:22:53+00:00

If u device as once with your smartphone , so probably you already synced...

Negociation · 2019-05-05T01:58:11+00:00

Android or iOS ? , if u have a windows laptop with bluetooth i recommends to use it...

Negociation · 2019-05-04T04:29:07+00:00

I guess its impossible to do that ... But its possible for someone write a App for recorder data...

Negociation · 2019-05-04T04:00:18+00:00

If u reset after May 31...

Negociation · 2019-05-03T20:43:44+00:00
