Immediately after ordering, I realized that my smartphone dominates a Bluetooth LE. And I have read repeatedly that since 3-4 years actually all built chips have this feature. So friend Google tried and solutions found:
I could connect the strap with the Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini (GT-I8190). Now you say certainly: WHAT THE CRAP ?!
Yes, Samsung has made to become most honest effort the existing technology with its own programming performance partially unusable. The Bluetooth chip in the device dominates namely the Low Energy version of Bluetooth. However, can not keep up the Samsung firmware there. Since the guarantee through a small crack in the display is always gone over Jordan, I was finally able to even try an alternative operating system to flash.
The guys from the CyanogenMod have really done a great job here. A programmer from the community has also produced a very stable image for the Galaxy S3 Mini. And lo and behold: even works the Polar chest strap with the S3 Mini. I can recommend to all extent. Flashes you a decent system it if you call not just a Nexus or Motorola E / G / X your own. It's worth it - not only because of the belt.
The app of Polar enough for me in many parts, as I often measure the load during maintenance. In return, the app is all. But the chest is also compatible with all popular apps from the Sports range.
