Samsung Smartwatch as Proximity Switch : Part V [END]

Advertisement

This is the final part of the series. In Part I, we talked about the basics which continued to Part II.
Part III had a working code non-specific to any particular device. Part IV had a partially working code specific to a particular device.

Samsung Smartwatch as Proximity Switch

circuitdigest.com‘s code (in Part IV) was not working with Samsung Galaxy Watch LTE. Samsung’s smartwatches shutdown both BLE and traditional Bluetooth when Bluetooth is kept OFF from settings and pairing not going to work. So, the option was to modify the code of Part III. Thankfully, I found that João Alves (jpralves.net) linked to a working code by Lindermann95 on Instructables. In the final code, I only modified some of the words from Spanish to English and added English comments.

This is the final working code :
