KdE Connect Connection Problems

Fri Sep 10, 2021 1:11 pm
So I'm facing a lot of problems with kdeconnect on my system, Arch+sway , kdeconnect 21.08.1-1

1. I require to know when a device ( my android ) is connected to my laptop or not, but `kdeconnect-cli -a` is just not reliable at all, even when I disconnect the android from local wifi, kdeconnect-cli -a keeps showing it as connected, and kdeconnect-cli doesnt change anything. it ultimately detect the change after a long time, which doesnt work for me

2. kdeconnect doesnt reconnect automatically, for testing purpose, if I disconnect and then connect my android to wifi, devices dont recognise each other availability. again kdeconnect-cli --refresh have no effect. However, If I try to connect to android using netcat ( netcat -z -v *phone_ip* 1716-1764 ) , once the connection is made, devices recognise each other in kdeconnect app. Only other sure solution is to reconnect to wifi and relaunch kdeconnect process on both devices

Pls help, this is driving me nuts

same (similar) here: I have always to open (and re-open) kde connect both on my smartphone and on my pc, otherwise pc and smartphone don't see each other.
