I don't have a Windows phone, but I bought 4 of these at one time. They are working well on 2 iPhones and 2 Androids.

I have occasionally had this issue, it actually started very recently. I rebooted my phone and it worked fine. Just like my laptop! Hope this helps.

I have not had that problem myself however I didn't realize I could turn off the WIFI initially. Now that did throw me a curve, so I'm careful not to hit that key anymore. :)

This happened to me once, too. It'll come back. I unplugged mine for a while, then tried again (like, the next day) and it was fine. It still occasionally gets stuck in limbo, but it usually only takes a few minutes without power, then plugging it back in.Also, I've noticed it does this less often if I take out the Bluetooth thingy in back. There's a little cover you can remove on the back with a little USB Bluetooth receiver in it. It's tricky to get your fingers in there, but once I pulled this out, my unit started working more reliably.

I unplug the power to the Cobra for a few minutes and reconnect. That works for me. You may have to pair it with your phone again.

This happened to me once. Hold power and volume down until the phone restarts.

The first thing of course, is to apply the Microsoft solution: Reboot the DIR-632. If that doesn't work, do a Factory Reset. I had a problem once, because of an IP conflict caused by Windows 7. Check in the Network Neighborhood for a Microsoft "miniport" wireless device. Even if it is disabled, it can cause a conflict. Enable it, set an IP but NO GATEWAY, save it, and disable it again. That may help.

I have not used it on a windows phone. I do use it on my Iphone and Ipad. I also use it on my windows desktop, if that helps.

Please contact Olens Technology through their website and they will take care of you and get it working properly again, or swap it out for one that works properly at no cost to you. It's probably just a setting on your phone. Thank you!

I had trouble reconnecting the wi fi after it was working and i turned off the wi fi (slid the 'button' to turn it off in the settings) and then turned it back on and it worked.

No. As I said in the review, it does not auto reconnect if you've been away for more than a few minutes. You have to press the terrible little button every time.

That's happened to me on occasion, but it usually reconnects on its own. I find that it does the disconnect thing more often when it's getting closer to time to charge it. I think may be some power saver feature.

Hi Jim I haven't seen that problem but my suggestion would be to remove the connection. Reboot your phone and re sync. Let me know if that helps. FYI any walls or doors can cause an. Interference

Actually it depends on the application that you are using. It basically connects to mobile through bluetooth and sends your heart beat.I use windows phone 8 and the only application that runs correctly is the run.gps (as far as I know). Last sunday I was running the half marathon of Rio de Janeiro and at the end it stops working - I check and there were much humidity on the contacts... I clean and it starts working again but I think the contacts should be a little more protected. Other than this, this device is very good. I do recomend.Samuel

Mine did the same thing for the first few times I tried. For some reason it just showed up to connect to. I may have turned my phone off for a few seconds & then turned it back on.

The same thing happened to me when I first closed the phone up. You need to go back inside of the phone and make sure those connections are made perfectly and completely. If that does not work , go back and start from the beginning of the directions. If that does not work , seek more professional help.
