- My DTEK60 will be shipped to me Monday or Tuesday, so I do not own one yet. But perhaps something clever like launching shazam? It'll be fun to screw around with.12-04-16 10:48 AMLike 0
- Toggle Bluetooth. You'd be surprised how much it impacts idle battery life. I keep my phone off the charger all night and lose somewhere around 1-2% over 7-8 hours.
Ideally my choice would be to set it for media control (play/pause, multiple press for forward/back skip on songs, etc.) but can't figure out what it's software profile is set to on the remapper app I use.
Also, there's another thread about this already if you're looking for more ideas.ahmedhanif911 likes this.12-04-16 11:01 AMLike 1 - Toggle Bluetooth. You'd be surprised how much it impacts idle battery life. I keep my phone off the charger all night and lose somewhere around 1-2% over 7-8 hours.

For those finding Bluetooth connecting difficult I have found if I toggle on Bluetooth from the phone first, even before turning on my car it connects everything without delay...12-04-16 03:27 PMLike 0

Even if I can figure out how to remap the convenience key, I may still keep it on Bluetooth, the effect on battery life is staggering.12-04-16 09:42 PMLike 0

My bluetooth stays on 24/7. I stream audio through it for about 1-3 hours per day, the rest of the time it's idle. I've checked my battery usage for it once I read that so many ppl on here toggle it on/off with the convenience key. It uses 1-2%. Not even close to worth wasting convenience key on it. It's also pretty quick and easy to swipe down from the top and press bluetooth on/off.

Nonsense, in my opinion.

Unfortunately can't really complain when (in my case) you go from the Priv to the DTEK60 because you prefer software keyboards (among other things). I never really used the PKB for shortcuts much anyway so I'm not really missing much.12-05-16 08:50 AMLike 0 - I wish we had a convenience key on Priv. It doesn't even pause music, it just mutes it and music keeps playing....12-06-16 09:58 PMLike 0

It really sucks that I can't add it to my quick settings menu like in my passport!
My 3 swipe up gestures are : settings, HUB, voicemail !
It really sucks that there is no visual voicemail on android!!
Man I miss my Passport, the android os is really naked and all the basic functions from bbos10 require so much more work or 3rd party apps to be accomplished on android!12-16-16 02:46 PMLike 0 - [QUOTE=SeanKent;12689254]I only use Bluetooth when in my car, otherwise it's off. For that reason I've just created a home screen shortcut, which tapping it toggles Bluetooth on or off. Quite handy as don't have to go through any menus.
How did you create a Bluetooth home screen shortcut?12-16-16 03:28 PMLike 0 - [QUOTE=ErnieH;12702533]Tap on apps button then select shortcuts from top right , scroll down to device and press and hold Bluetooth icon and move wherever you want it . I use one of the swipe up functions now for Bluetooth.12-16-16 03:48 PMLike 0
- My key is set up for my mobile payment app (RBC) .
Once Android Pay is released in Canada it will be set up for that.12-16-16 03:56 PMLike 0
