Camera remote app for Android wear shows up as "com.sonymobile.cameracommon.wearablebridge"

dke — Tue, 28 Jul 2015 08:57:44 GMT

Hi there,

I just updated my Xperia Z3 Compact D5308 to Android 5.1.1. After that, the Camera remote control app was installed on my Moto 360, also running Android 5.1.1. There the app shows up as "com.sonymobile.cameracommon.wearablebridge". Not that much a pretty name, huh? Any ideas how to fix it?

Cheers David

Have you contacted the app developer or the watch maker to see if there is a compatibility issue - This is the wrong place to post regarding cross app/oem issues

The app developer is Sony Mobile. So I hope, this forum is the place to ask questions about it.

Sony claims compatibility with its own Smart Watch 3. But since the app is automatically installed on every Android Wear watch which is paired with an Xperia phone, I assume Sony have tested the app for general compatibility with the platform.

In the Samrtwatch appear an app who say "com.sonymobile.cameracommon.wearablebridge" and the camera not open in the smartphone.

That's strange, that's the package name of the app. I will forward this internally for further investigation.

Wondering if this issue has been sorted as I have the same issue with a Z2 and my SmartWatch 3.

This issue is fixed in the software version 23.4.A.1.232 but depending on country/region, you may not have received this update yet as availability may depend on local and operator approvals.

I have version 19x and I am in the US. Does this mean this software will take another few years to get here ?

So the US is the least of your priorities ?

Does this also mean your software is getting released without QA on the watch, and that it went by 3 whole versions with no one noticing ??

I also have an M4 Aqua Dual (E2363) running at build 26.1.B.3.109 (Android 5.0) and I still have this problem on my Smart Watch 3.

Any update from Sony??????

Re: Camera remote app for Android wear shows up as "com.sonymobile.cameracommon.wearablebridge&

Graeme701 — Fri, 08 Jul 2016 09:29:46 GMT

I have managed to remove it from the app list on my watch by go to 'Settings, Apps, All' on my phone and disabling com.sonymobile.cameracommon.wearable.

After doing this I needed to turn my watch off, restart my phone, then turn my watch back on.

Once the watch and phone paired back up the app dissapeared.

Hope this helps.
