The Smok app is quite particular, it must have the full functionality of Bluetooth 4.0 to work, specifically the low energy mode and ~14x higher bandwidth that 2.0 simply doesn't support.

Low power is only applied - if properly used - to the 4.0 operational device, not any other communicating device.
4.0 head phones work with Venue 8 pro (windows8) tablets running BT3:)
Ask me how I know:D

Hello in here.
Well personally I'm just thrilled I was picked as a winner in the thread. I gave my info to SJ when asked, I'll wait and see, if it come I’m happy. if not I’m still happy as I won and no one can take that away.
I assume we just need to wait.

Yep. :)

Even if the post just says: Place holder for updates

That would work :D
That's how we did it in the good ol' days

And you know what, I literally lurked on this forum for several years after being heavily involved, I come back, BAM contest, and the place gets all toe-up :D LMAO I love it!!!

It's good to have hope! But don't be broken-hearted when it doesn't work. The Smok app and Cube NEED BT 4.0.

As for your BT 4.0 headphones working, that's because the basic Bluetooth streaming stereo (A2DP) audio standard hasn't changed. Newer units might have additional codec support on top of A2DP (like aptX lossless streamng), but if one device in the pair doesn't support it, it defaults back to compressed A2DP.

Thing is, the X Cube II is not an audio device, it's data, and it's not designed to connect to older BT devices since it's a single mode only (read: cheap) BLE chip that only "talks" BT Low Energy, which is not supported in versions older than 4.0.

You gotta Quote when doing this - people get confused......................yesterday
Yea like me :oops:
I couldn't figure out what was going on :laugh: I even Googled "Face Crap" to see what I was being called :laugh:

BTW: Google told me that Face Crap is what punk rockers call their make up they put on their face :blink:
The 2nd definition was, in censored talk, a .... Face or .... Head...
Then it was the 3rd Def that mentioned slang for Face Book :facepalm:

I went with the FB one :laugh: It's all good :thumbs: but I agree, one should use Quote or Reply to post about another post ;)

Can't get disappointed in something I felt was screwy from the get go.
Yes, kind of felt Smok would be single channel(low tech) but can't hurt to experiment. Not like my days are full anymore.:(
Still do not believe they totally ignore Windows application yet Firmware is windows based updates.:facepalm:

The fine art of, Duh whut.:censored: in IT.:facepalm::facepalm:

I did read that during the V-Day celebration in China that they invited other leaders and or Reps from other countries.
So security was at a all time high in China, and they even shut down some of the internet there :?:
So that might be another reason Becca could not get on ECF till after the Holiday :unsure:

Of course, unfortunately, members can only edit a post for 48 hours (please, please, please, remove this "feature"), but in contests like this, I'm sure SJ and the mods could get around that.
