Hello,
I'm having difficulty connecting my LG g pad with my Samsung Galaxy S3 using Qpair. When running the app on both devices (on the tablet from the quick launch icon and on the phone from the play store) and pressing 'initial setup' then 'start' on both, after confirming that the devices should be paired I get an error message of "qpair initial setup is incomplete" on the tablet and "update qpair and run it again. To update go to Google Play Store on the tablet" on the phone.
I have tried to update the app from the play store on the tablet ("not available on this device ") and unpairing the bluetooth connection on both or either device, with no luck - I still get the same message every time I try to get the phone and tablet connected with qpair! Can anyone help with this problem? Thanks!!
You have to rename your tablet as a 510 for downloading from play, which you have to do to get it working. I can confirm that it works. I followed details of how to do it from a thread on here. I'll link it when I find it.

Read the thread (it's short). I just needed to change the model number.

Thanks For your replay.
It works.
I don't have a GPE device, but I saw an update for QPair in the app store today and it said that it was updated to support the V510.

thanks, i know how to do it in samsung devices as there is a wifi direct option in the share menu. seems that i cant find the option in LG device though. if i choose the share beam option, it turns on bluetooth instead.

I recommend using superbeam. Just share the file to superbeam and u tap both devices with superbeam open and it will send it via WiFi direct hassle free

Turn off WiFi direct and leave WiFi on but not connected to a wireless access point and tap on both phones or use the qr code.

So if this is the solution what's the need of WiFi direct in Wi-Fi menu? I hope LG is not using apples marketing tricks to promote it's own solution instead of using the most common and compatible.
as was the case for android beam.
my LG G3 can send files to my SAMSUNG S3.
but the LG G3 can't receive files from SAMSUNG S3.
LG needs to fix this and not go for the exclusivity route!!!
it should be NOKIA connecting people. nostalgia, hand meets hand boot animation.

That's not a problem from LG, but samsungs S Beam, when you're on a aosp rom at the s3, you can send and receive files through android beam just fine.

Re: Wifi Transfer App Needed
I needed an app to transfer my files from android devices to PC and vice-versa. I had DropBox as an option, but I don't want all my data to go to Cloud and then go to another device. I wanted some of the features DropBox has, like:
O) Commenting on pictures,
O) To be able to capture a picture in the same app and send it to another device
O) I also wanted to open Office files like Excel, Word, etc. on the Android phone.
I hope someone will reply soon because I'm in a problem here.
Regards,
Pankaj
Thanks!
Wi-Fi Direct setup
Wi-Fi Direct allows Wi-Fi devices to be connected directly, making it easier and faster to share files or screens.
To setup Wi-Fi Direct, tap the Apps icon. And then find and open the Settings app.
Tap Wi-Fi.
Tap the Menu button.
Tap Advanced Wi-Fi.
Then tap Wi-Fi Direct and wait for your phone to find available devices.
Then select the device you want to connect to.
You'll see the Wi-Fi Direct connection icon in the Status Bar.
You're done setting up Wi-Fi Direct.
Hi everyone,
I've searched all over but can't find the answer. I've used the sixaxis app on many devices before. It doesn't seem to work on the tab s, and I believe it is because newer Samsung devices are missing a certain Bluetooth protocol.
My goal is to connect two PS3 controllers to the Tab S to play emulated games (nes, snes n64,etc.)
Does anyone have any information on how to get it working? Thanks!

I tried all the tricks I know, to no avail, it's really hard to make it work, unless you're willing to do it 'oldschool' style, wired via OTG.
we managed to do this in samsung tab 3 before, 2 PS3 controllers for 2 player fighting games, dunno, seems like we have bluetooth compatibility issues as the PS3 bluetooth is already outdated.
let's here other chime in
what ? sixaxis controller works perfectly on my tab s 10.5 :v no issue . even with wire
Works on my 8.4 too.. have you tried the compatibility checker first ? It only worked after I used it once

you dont need to install that app , just set the host IP for the controller and play . that's all
Well, like I said, didn't work until I tried that. Can't tell why though, never had too before. But I tried it since I remember a while ago, sense and touchwizz used to be not compatible with sixaxis app

ok, wait...so are both of u guys saying that u have a PS3 controller working through BLUETOOTH with the tab S?! If so then could one of u please provide a screenshot as proof and describe your connection method...did u use the pc program or bond with an otg cable through the sixaxis app then pair and what version of the sixis app are u using? Also..are u using original oem sony controllers or ebay branded ones? :confused

@better33
to answer all of the basic questions...yes i'm rooted & yes i've used the app before successfully most recently on the tab pro 8.4 . i really need the above questions i posed to the poster above answered...also as @sku|| suggested i doubt if the compatibility checker helps but yes i've tried that too. Thx for the screenshot though...are u using original sony controllers and more importantly what version of the sixaxis app are u using?
Like I said, it wasn't working the first time, so I downloaded the compatibility checker since I remember there used to be issues with touchwizz, and it said it was compatible. I'm using the official ps3 controller. Are you root ?
Forgot to say, I connected the controller on my computer to change the master address and then connected it through Bluetooth

I'm using the 0.7.4 version, what else do you need?
Hmm interesting. What rom version are you using? It could be regional issue?

Im using 2 official controllers here, one that came with the ps3 that I used on my tab 7.7 with no issues (bluetooth) . And another aftermarker pink controller that I also used with no issues with tab 7.7. Only thing devious and I have in common might be our custom rom which he compiled
I tried connecting it through PC and change the mac address via sixaxis changer. Installed the compatibility checker and eas advised that it's compatible. Bought the sixaxis app. And.. boom. Stuck at 'listening to controllers'. I'll give it a shot once again

I'm having the same issue in my rooted Tab s 10.5. I changed the master to my tablet, then the tablet never sees the controller. Any luck?
Uhhh. Dunno what I did but.. it worked.
Heres what I remembered.
Uninstalled sixaxis.
Downloaded compatibility checker and run
-hooked up my controller via otg and manually typed my bluetooth MAC
Installed Sixaxis
-tried pairing via OTG. Disconnect cable and tried pairing via BT: unsuccessful
*frustrated*
Killed app compatibility checker
Killed app sixaxis
Reopened sixaxis
Clicked change IME - list of keyboard appeared. Tapped sixaxis
Clicked start. It connected.
Mine is :
1. Have a DS3 controller
2. Have a cable and OTG
3. Connect DS3 via OTG
4. Open sixaxis controller app ( v0.7.4)
5. Tap PAIR
6. Disconnect the controller
7. Change IME
8. Tap Start and connect with DS3
9. Done

Actually I remember doing that too (changing the IME BEFORE looking for devices), maybe that's why it worked for me. I'm on the last stock French rom, can't tell you more I'm at work without the tab.

I got it working on Tab S by changing IME to sixaxis > then go to "set up input methods" > made sure sixaxis is checked > into its general settings , checked auto start > then into game setting checking "enable gamepad. Presto!!
Hi everyone,
Thanks for all the feedback! I am trying very hard to replicate the steps, but I still can't get past the "Listening for controllers" status.
Can anyone please delete all of the six axis settings, and post detailed step by steps from scratch?
Also, I noticed my bluetooth button isn't lit up (indicating that it is on) when I start Sixaxis. And when I try to turn it on, it doesn't.
Thanks for your help!!

Wait, you guys are right.... it is totally random, but I got it working! This time, I did retype the bluetooth address manually and clicked pair (even though it looked the same). Then, it still didn't work. Then I tried it with my regular swiftkey input, and it connected! Then I switched it to six axis.
This was the reason I bought the tablet, so THANK YOU guys for the help (even though we are still kind of puzzled )
I got another simpler method that works, so far so good,
-Force close all sixaxis apps (compatibility checker and sixaxis)
-at the back of the controller, there's a reset button, insert anything small enough and reset it
-connect the controller to your device via OTG
-run sixaxis controller app
-tap pair, then tap pair (the one on pop up)[ensure the bluetooth address is correct]
-disconnect OTG
-turn the controller on
-tap Start.
and there you have it.
edit:
and it will not work again as soon as you paired your device to your Samsung Gear LOL..
what you need to do, after using your Samsung Gear, disconnect it, reboot your device and follow the instructions above, it will sync once again

I got it working perfectly yesterday, but couldn't get it today. I tried your steps over and over again, but no luck!
Any way you can post a video? I will be very thankful to the person who can get this working for me! It is frustrating that it worked yesterday flawlessly with two controllers, but only after hours of messing with it (and it isn't working today!)

I was about to edit my post for the nth time LOl. Sad to say. I does not work again. I was simply lucky that I managed to do it 3 times in a row. Now. It simply doesnt pair. Could be something messing with the bluetooth becuase once you get it to pair initially. Even if you reboot, it would still pair. But once you connect your device to another bluetooth device such as headset/gear. BT will forget the sixaxis profile and you'll have trouble syncing it again. I'm close to giving up. I'm simply using it with USB OTG just to satisfy my game-cravings. Hope the others who got it working chime in once again if they manage to pair it all the time.
Hello
I am new to your site, so i hope this is ok to post here.
Please help........I fell for a beautiful all singing all dancing Sony SW2 on ebay, unfortunatly Sony tell me that the SW2 is a no longer a product supported by Sony and that is why the Smart Connect app is available but not the Sony Smartwatch 2 Host. The watch does say it is connected to my Xperia L3 and vise versa but it is not responsive at all to the phone. and if i turn the watch off then on again it just asks me for the SW2 host again.
Is there a way of over riding the watches request for the host app or have i just paid £42 for a lovely looking calculater watch?
Thank you all in advance.

My backup
https://drive.google.com/open?id=19fpunzmYzcuImAPNkOJbWB2TYD3Vp0QJ
Thank you
Thank you very much for the download.
I have downloaded to my google chrome laptop am somehow from putting it in drive then managed to transfer it to my phone. Now i have it i am still unsure on which apps are best to download for the SW2 and also how to do so, so if you would you be so kind as to help me further iwould be most greatful.
Thank you,
Louise
You can search "sony sw2" on the playstore. There are still many apps
https://play.google.com/store/search?q=sony sw2&c=apps
Hi
I still face the same issue, even I installed the apk you gave us, i cannot open it or launch it What can I do it's for a gift
Thank you in advance.
Cheers
Miriam.
Same issue here. Just gave it to my son. He has OnePlus 3. Sony actually hosts the APK file on their site, but when I install it, you can only hit "Done", as "Open" is grayed out. There is nothing in the app drawer, and nothing under internal storage/Android/data
Master app is the "Sony Smart Connect" the "Smartwatch SW2" app is only a plugin for the master app.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sonyericsson.extras.liveware
But not all "Smart Connect App" works with all phone/watch/plugin. I must often install older Smart Connect Version depend of phone and Android version. Not special rules, I must try differents versions from my differents backup until it works. It is the game with older device and older software on older or newest phone and OS
I just found this site and downloaded your backup but how do I get it to my smartwatch2? I tried plugging the usb cord from the watch to my pc but nothing registers under "My Computer" to be able to transfer a file?
Is there any apps/extensions who still works on Sony smartwatch 2? I just have the five basic apps(alarm, flashlight, calculator, stop watch and timer. I have tried to install several apps/extensions but nothing have been synced to the watch so that I could use them
Almost all works. Just need use old Sony Smart Connect and Smartwatch 2 plugin.
I use Smart Connect V5.7.35.0001
and Smartwatch 2 app V 1.6.31
this works on Android 11
Hello everyone! Extensions don't seem to show on the app after being installed. I'm using a Galaxy A50 on Android 10 / OneUI 2.5, any clue?

You're a lifesaver. Just got it working on android Q. Thanks!
If it helps anyone : I had installed first the Sony Smart Connect V5.7.35.0001, then tried connecting to the watch, then installed the apk Smartwatch2 app V1.6.31 from Sony's website.
It did not work, even after a reboot, because the Smart connect was still trying to install the plugin.
I removed and reinstalled the Sony Smart Connect app and rebooted the phone : it recognized the plugin automatically.
So I would say : try installing the SmartWatch2 host apk first, then the Smart Connect app from the store.
Hi. Is there a call app available? Don't need to answer, just want to see who's calling when a call comes in, I answer on my headset. Really desperate, does anybody have any info? Thanks

Informer - Notifications for Sony SW2This app is the only one I found that displayed missed calls etc. It's rather unreliable for me. Try it yourself.

I bought this watch 2 days ago, having a nightmare with it. Hours and hours trying to make it work at my Samsung 10. Sony Smart Connect and Smartwatch App installed and paring with the phone. The problem is that as I could search on the web, the native apps provided in Sony's website just work with Sony smartphones. At the end of the day it is a useless smartwatch if you expect it to at least have the Calling Function.
I'm not sure if it's a hardware or software issue. I have a Nissan Nv200 for work and it connects to the phone but sporadically drops or disconnects from bluetooth. It also happens with my beats wireless earbuds. I've tried to delete cache from bluetooth and delete and reconnect each component but I had no luck.
Starting to hate this phone more than like it

I may not have the answer that you want to hear but I did find a temporary solution. There's an app in the play store nRF Connect that works. Slide over to bonded, put devices in pairing mode and hit scan and wah lah. Any questions I'll do the best I can to help.
