I’m running a G6 straight to a Pixel and then to a Garmin Forerunner (no receiver or Dexcom app).
This has been running great for months, but then today when I tried to start a new sensor I’m having connection issues; after the 2-hour warm-up I get this error:
“G6 State isn’t currently known. Next connection will update this”
I’ve tried going into System Status and doing the Restart Collector and restarting the phone, but that hasn’t worked.
I thought I should try doing Stop Sensor, but the warning on that page tells me not to do so unless I’m actually taking out the sensor.
Yep using OB1. Just tried installing the latest nightly, and tried stopping sensor and starting again. Still getting same error - “G6 state isn’t currently known.…”
@ponjovi You might try running the Data Source Wizard again. Maybe something got screwed up. We just need to get your phone communicating with your transmitter.
Just long press the xDrip+ icon at the top of the home screen and you’ll get the option to display it.
I could uninstall xDrip and re-install the Dexcom app to see if that works, and isolate xDrip as the issue? If I do this, and then try to go back to xDrip would there be issues trying to re-start it on xDrip?
It’s seeming more and more like this. I liked your idea of reconnecting to the Dexcom app. Do you have a receiver? If you do just connect the transmitter to the receiver and you won’t have to uninstall xDrip+.
Does the lack of connectivity coincide with a phone update. Many people had a connection problem on the Samsung S9/S9+ after the latest phone update. Maybe you have something similar?
So I re-installed the Dexcom app and was able to successfully pair, so not sure what the issue was with xDrip. Will try swapping again and will report back.
But importantly I’m now back up and running which is great since I’m traveling for a week with only a few fingerstick strips with me so really needed the CGM back online.
Not sure if anyone is still following this thread, but I was having similar issues with xdrip+ and the G6 with my first attempt at bring a previously fine sensor and transmitter combo from the Dexcom app to xdrip. What finally worked was doing a hard reset on the transmitter, then uninstalling and reinstalling the latest nightly (currently from 5/25/19). I then started everything from scratch, and so far I’m up and running. For hard transmitter reset, I found instructions here in the AndroidAPS wiki, under the “extend transmitter life” section:
Also imporant:
Go to System Status after stopping a sensor (either a new one or trying again with one already inserted) and make sure that before you try again, the queue where it says “(1) Stop Sensor” has disappeared.
