GSConnect drops connection and WhatsApp not working
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
I am experimenting with GSConnect for the first time. I have followed the instructions here and have managed to:
- Connect to the phone and exchange files (in both directions),
- Send and receive SMS messages, and
- Ping my desktop from my phone and vice versa.
Some details about my setup:
- Mobile phone: LG G5, Android 7.0.
- Ubuntu desktop: upgraded earlier today from 18.10 to 19.04.
- Installed GSconnect Shell extension through Ubuntu Software.
- Installed plugin on Firefox (just updated to 66.0.3).
Although there is some delay with the messages (especially when a message is received), this seems to work properly.
Unfortunately, I have identified the following two issues:
- The connection drops every few minutes and I need to reconnect. This often takes more than one attempt and I can only reconnect if I initiate this from the phone (pinging, for instance, does the trick).
- I am unable to connect with WhatApp even though the instructions I am following seem to explicitly say this is possible.
If anyone has experience with GSconnect and can help I would really appreciate it.
