Known Issues:
-
Android 4.4+ only, we can only change this by not handling generic notifications or by using AccessibiltyService. Don't know if it is worth the hassle.
-
The initial connection to a Mi Band sometimes takes a little patience. Try to connect a few times, wait, possibly quit Gadgetbridge before connecting again. This only happens until you have "bonded" with the Mi Band, i.e. until it knows your MAC address. This behavior may also only occur with older firmware versions.
