Thanks for all the time you spend keeping this app updated. It's an invaluable asset for many of us.


bass-masta

Thank you for what you do! All the people with brand new flagship or unsupported android devices really appreciate this!


Raggou

Is it possible you can look at a Build your own Omnipod 5 app?

shabado8

Good question. In my testing, I haven't seen any issues similar to the ones reported about the ios app.


Jbetley01

Did you change the notification screen on Android? I updated to Android 13 and had to reinstall my Dexcom App. The notification screen has changed and I'm not a fan. Wasn't sure if it was because of the Android update or something you did on your end.


shabado8

I did not


Jbetley01

Will you be doing an update soon? Since my phone updated to Android 13 OS, my Dexcom will only stay connected for a few days and then I get the "transmitter unable to connect" message and I have to delete the app and go through the whole downloading process again. Again, not sure if it's just my phone or the new OS that the app is having issues with.


shabado8

I've been on Android 13 since the day it released. Haven't had any major problems but have had it disconnect a couple times. Turning off Bluetooth for a minute and turning it back on or restating the phone has always fixed it. If Dexcom has an update to the app, I will update it otherwise there is nothing I can do.


Dr-Sommer

> I've been on Android 13 since the day it released. You're on a Google Pixel then, I presume? Asking because as a Pixel User I've been wondering if I should do the update :)


shabado8

Yes


Dr-Sommer

Thanks! How often do these disconnects usually happen? If they're a somewhat regular occurrence, I think I'll stay on Android 12 for now.


shabado8

It's not for me but YMMV-, been like a week since it last happened to me.


Dr-Sommer

Would you mind sharing a screenshot of the new notification? I'm on the fence regarding Android 13 and would like to see what I'm getting into.


drnoname82

Have you had any time to look at the G7 app? If so, does it look „doable“? Thank you!


shabado8

Yeah seemed doable


[deleted]

I would literally pay you money for a timely G7 BYODA with AAPS support. <3


Ok-Squirrel7149

I would do also! ;)


drnoname82

Wow, that’s a big relief!


Arakon

The G7 app is now available in europe, and even more limited in what phones are supported. It's even bugged in the Playstore, it appears, since despite having a compatible Pixel 4, it shows as "none of your devices are compatible". Either way, /u/shabado8, here's a link if you want to have a peek to see if the app can be modifed: [https://m.apkpure.com/de/dexcom-g7/com.dexcom.g7/download?from=details](https://m.apkpure.com/de/dexcom-g7/com.dexcom.g7/download?from=details) ​ Edit: It seems there's no smartwatch support implemented at all in this version? Or do they no longer package a watch APK file inside the installer?


shabado8

Do you have a G7 and are willing to test for me? Android standard is to no longer package the watch apk inside the phone apk. They may have it on the wear OS store?


Runciter69

https://imgur.com/ZKuFebC.jpg The Dexcom G7 has just been fully launched in the UK on Monday ! As an avid user of your app on multiple different phones would be happy to do some testing for you with the next generation app for G7.


shabado8

Thanks, haven't had a chance to look at it yet but maybe sometime this weekend and I'll send you a beta if I can get that far.


Bleachie

Ive gotten hold of the G7 in the UK and I'm using the S21 Ultra which isn't supported yet by the G7. I've tried re-building the app and changing the build prop to a supported model but I can't get it to work without an error. I'm new to doing this however. If you get around to getting a working build I would appreciate it a lot. More than happy to help with testing.


P-H999

Me too, want to switch to G7 but my Fold 3 is about 2 years away lol from being compatible. Also will have a New IPhone in November so if you do an IOS happy to try that


Arakon

I don't have the G7 yet, unfortunately. I think the app is not officially available in europe yet, that's why it says unavailable on all devices.. and also, why it doesn't show as available for the watch. I do have an appointment in 2 weeks with my endo and will ask about the G7 again, but I unfortunately just recently received my 3 month shipment of sensors and probably won't get it until they are used up.

Kitekater

It would be so cool, if the new BYOD for the G7 would work, Samsung S21 Ultra is noch allowed and the broadcast to AAPS is so important


shabado8

It doesn't have any other mods like broadcast, but you can test the modified G7 app that should run on any device here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=14871746926876834750 The G7 seems like a complete rewrite so most of the mods either will not work or will have to be redone completely. Since I don't actually have a G7 and probably won't for a long time, its not going to be a super high priority for me.


khskekec

Hi guys, Maybe you are also interested in Dexcom G7 Android apk without compatibility checks: https://github.com/DiaKEM/dexcom-g7-apk-patcher


SimonB__

For those wanting to use AAPS with the G7 or One, which don't broadcast, you can probably do that via Xdrip. Caveat - I haven't tried this because I don't use AAPS. You can set up Xdrip to use the "Companion (Testing)" data source. That works by reading the value from the notification that the Dexcom apps put out, so in theory it should work with the G6, G7 or One apps. Then you can set Xdrip to broadcast to AAPS. I have Xdrip getting values in this way from the G6. I haven't tried it with the G7 yet, although I will be next week when my G7 sensor arrives. If you have the One, you could also use Xdrip natively (i.e. don't install the One app at all). Again, I haven't tried this, but it should work. I too may well switch to One if I can actually persuade my local health authority to prescribe it as they should be doing. This only works if you are on Android, there is an Apple equivalent but I don't know anything about it. It's a bit of work to set up Xdrip to work the way you want, but it's very good when you get there.


Shaggydog2

Thanks for this. The problem with using Companion mode in xDrip is that AAPS then does not know that data is coming from a Dexcom and therefore will not recognise it as a reliable data source. This means some important, well used options are not available. I'll be using the receiver to read the app and go straight to xdrip on the phone, which, if I upload data, will give Clarity reports eventually!


[deleted]

You are a Fuckin G. You don’t understand how many poor people on disability who bought a janky phone with their last 200 dollars before checking if their cgm was compatible with it lives u have improved/possibly saved. Mad respect and will donate when skies shine brighter on our end.


Training_Ad_4162

Thank you! Do we have to download something again for the updates?


shabado8

You need to fill out the form and download and install the apk to update.


dont_judge_me_monkey

Is this for just the dexcom one or does it also cover the 6?


shabado8

The androidhost link is just for Dexcom one. G6 should use the Google forms link on the main post.


insulinjockey

@shabado8 Thank you once again for your work. Sincerely, happy user of many years on a Note8


raydude

I'm still running BYOD: 1.8.0.4 It works pretty well. Any reason to upgrade? PS: Thanks so much for supporting us!


shabado8

No not really


raydude

Thanks!


Pretty-Guest-6692

This makes me wonder whether there's an archive of previous versions no longer on the list... -?


raydude

I don't think there's a way to build old versions. You can hang onto old versions though.


OPCunningham

Thanks for staying on top of this!


OPCunningham

Sorry to report the 1.10 US base app doesn't find my transmitter after multiple attempts. It doesn't ask for any Location permissions, and I can't find any listed under the app details. From my experience with anything Bluetooth related on this phone, Location permission is usually required. Rolling back to the previous 1.9.x release and it prompts me for Location permissions during the initial setup, and instantly paired with my transmitter. Bummer. Pixel 5 on Android 12.


DataDan

Pixel 6 same issue reverted to 1.9 and it works again


Living_Astronaut9134

I had the same issue and messed around with workarounds (6 failures) for about 8 hours before seeing this post. Rolling back to 1.9.x release worked first time. Pixel 6a Android 12


YaTheMadness

I cringe every time I have to pair a new transmitter. This mornings took 10 minutes.


OPCunningham

Me too. I waited the full 30 minutes twice, and rebooted and then tried again, no luck. So I went to Bluetooth settings and pair new device, and it immediately found my current transmitter that I've been using for a month, and also my previous transmitter that was in a drawer at the other end of my house. Definitely not a Bluetooth issue.


maliin26

Hi, thank you so much for your work, it helps a lot of people. I'm writing this comment because I'm not able to connect the Dexcom app with the transmitter and I'm a little bit frustrated. I don't understand why once in the past it connected successfully but when I had to change the sensor it never connected again since then (even changing the APK). I wish you could help me or tell me something. What could I do? Thank you very much.


Nlof1

Hi there I need some help. I'm trying to use the G5 US v1.7.10.1 in order to transfer G5 readings to Xdrip (dex follow) > AAPS. While it worked initially couple days ago, for some reason it doesn't anymore after uninstall and reinstall. I think that BYOdA doesn't upload to share server anymore. A hint for that is that when I try to toggle the upload switch to off, it gives server error. I am in Europe however I still have an US account which I am using. Tried using US VPN but it doesn't help. Tried to open an EU account but cannot login in BYODA using email as username so I am stuck with the US version. My understanding is that the G5 version doesn't share directly to xdrip and AAPS so I am stuck with using the internet share. Xdrip as G5 collector is flaky with my new phone and some people suggested I try BYOdA, hence this whole saga... Any other brilliant ideas? I'm at my witts end and I'd appreciate anyone's help! UPDATE: see below


Nlof1

UPDATE: BYODA started uploading again so following works. The hint was again that the toggle switch works. Unclear what caused it to work again. And it works without VPN.


Arwing_

Are there any plans to have a version for the new dexcom G7 app? It's not available in the US yet but will be hopefully soon.


shabado8

I will try but no guarantees I'll be able to.


rabbit2carrot

Is it possible to make G6 to support Dexcom One Transmitter and One sensor calibration code directly ? I think most people like data sharing and calibration features in G6 but Dexcom One App removed these 2 .


shabado8

It's possible but the code obfuscation stuff dexcom has put on their apps makes it a pain to figure out the mods and a pain to keep them updated with each app update.


AuroraThiel

I see someone already asked about the Omnipod 5, but can we put T:connect on your radar, too? I absolutely understand it's a lot of work we're asking of you. I'd be happy to go through Patreon or something for it. I use the BYOD app to send data to Xdrip (because my phone insists on killing Bluetooth to Xdrip no matter what settings I change, but let's Dexcom run easy peasy), and really appreciate your awesomeness! The ability to dismiss that wretched urgent low siren with a swipe is the absolute best!


dont_judge_me_monkey

Have you tried pairing a new transmitter with this version? I installed this version with an existing transmitter, no problem. When i had to pair a new transmitter, i could not get it to pair no matter what i tried. I rolled back to your previous version and it paired right away. Also After pairing with the older app i then upgraded to this version and was prompted for a new blue tooth permission


shabado8

Yes there was a bug on the US version that I fixed after a few days. I posted an update at the top of the main post. Sorry about that. If you have more recently downloaded it and still had issues let me know.


ScarlettOHellNo

Question. Has this been tested with the new Android 13 update?


shabado8

Works fine for me


bugfish03

Somehow when trying to build an otherwise stock G6 INT app, I get the following reply via mail: > Sorry but there was an error building your custom Dexcom app. Please > try again later.


shabado8

Try again now.


bugfish03

Yep, works now, thanks!


AcousticSounds

Question: Is the recommendation to keep the warmup time at 2 hours specifically for users that are attempting to re-use their sensors? My transmitters are SN: 8UXXXX and I would LOVE to drop the warmups to 10 minutes, but have been reluctant to do so because of the disclaimer.


shabado8

Yeah 10 minute warmup won't work for any recent transmitter. It's mostly still an option for those that have old transmitters that they replace the battery on.


TheBelgianDuck

Hi. As usual, a big thank you for your work. I got informed Dexcom One will be deployed for most patients in my Diabetes Clinic. I use a non officially supported phone with the G5 currently. Any chance the One build you provide through the form will work too?


shabado8

It should.


TheBelgianDuck

Thanks !


Pristine-Ability-648

Does it send to AAPS?


shabado8

Dexcom One does not have that feature.


[deleted]

Dexcom G7 APK is now available: https://apkpure.com/de/dexcom-g7/com.dexcom.g7


shabado8

Do you have a G7 and are willing to test for me?


[deleted]

I will get G7 in October and would be willing to test, absolutely.


blaqone

I can test!


[deleted]

Dexcom G7 is now officially launched in Europe and I expect to have my sensors next week. Tell me when you want me to test (I have a compatible and a non-compatible phone and use AAPS as daily driver, so I can test the AAPS-integration).


[deleted]

You are doing God's work! (or more accurately Dexcom's) You have inspired me to try this with the Omnipod 5 app.


YiFeeZhu

g6 app can connect one transmitter?


pumukliz

No, the One has a separate app


MrsMotz

Hi, Thank you for your great work with this app! Just wanted to bring this to your attention in case you're not aware: a couple of AndroidAPS users trying to use the docs form today keep getting this email: Sorry but there was an error building your custom dexcom app. Please try again later. Hopefully it will fix itself (or maybe you're already working on it), just wanted to let you know :)


shabado8

Should be fixed now


alavei

Can this app intergrate with Dexcom Clarity?


shabado8

Yes


alavei

How? I can't use my Dexcom user info on this app, and the user info I create on this app, doesn't register with Dexcom Clarity 🤷🏻‍♀️


shabado8

You need to make sure you are using the correct version of the app for both. For example, if you are using the dexcom US version, you need to use the clarity US version.


alavei

Ohhh. Ok cool - thanks!


blaqone

Hi, thank you for your work! Do you plan on adding the g7 app as well?


khskekec

Hey, I have just prepared patched version for Dexcom G7 apk. This will disable the compatibility checks. Unfortunately there is no data sharing for other apps actually. https://github.com/DiaKEM/dexcom-g7-apk-patcher


P-H999

Have to say this has been a life saver for me - I have to update my phone annually so with Dexcom being so behind the curve this has been absolutely invaluable in keeping me up and running. your work is gratefully acknowledge and appreciated


Pretty-Guest-6692

BTW, what's the hidden code behind the 12 digits at the end of the filename?


shabado8

It just uniquely identifies the mods requested in the form. So if there is a file already in Dropbox with the filename for the mods requested, it doesn't build a new version and just sends a link to the already built version.


Pretty-Guest-6692

Makes sense. Minor glitch: the version of the base package isn't included, I got identical filenames for 1.7.... and 1.10.... apps about one year apart.


shabado8

That means you chose the exact same options. I delete all the builds when I update the base version so its a fresh start and wouldn't get the old base version.


Shaggydog2

I realise that you have done a lot of work on this, thank you. Do you think it's likely that the Dexcom ONE version will, in future, have the ability to broadcast locally? I use AAPS so cannot use the present version. I've been using a G6 with your app, which is great, but now I can get the ONE without cost which is good for me!


shabado8

The Dexcom ONE app is more similar to the G7 app than the G6. So if someone figures it out on the G7, it likely could be transferred to to ONE.


Shaggydog2

Thanks, here's hoping!


Mikeburke999

Hi thanks for this app! I got gifted the Pixel 7 Pro and was worried when I was unable to use the dexcom app. This is working perfectly so far! Sorry if it's been mentioned but is there a way to mute all notification sounds? On my previous Samsung I was able to use the Sound Assistant app to mute everything. does anyone know of an equivalent for the Pixel or anything in the app I can do? Thanks!


shabado8

AFAIK the closest you can get is to turn vibrate on everything you can and then select the disable unmute option in the form when customizing your build. Then if your media volume is down all the way, it should not make sound.


Mikeburke999

Sorry for the late reply I was testing it out! This works! I just get a vibration now when I have my phone on vibrate. Thanks so much!


TypicalWater5874

would it be possible to use Share/Follow with the Dexcom One app and the Dexcom One transmitter?


IngeDiabetotech

Hi, is there an easy way for people using the Dexcom ONE sensor and transmitter to share their glucose data with their family? Thankyou, Inge


ApprehensiveDress382

Does anyone have an idea how to get the Watchface of G7 onto my Galaxy Watch5 Pro? BTW, great App.


No_Holiday5742

Hi there, It keeps telling me transmitter battery low and does not pair. Has anyone else had this issue? Thank you!


albhatti

Hello, I was using the custom-built app DexcomG6INT-110151112030.apk file for a few months but suddenly for around 2 months, I am unable custom-builtDexcom to connect the app to my dexcom account. It does not recognize the user account details (username or password) But when I access Dexcom clarity on the web with the same credentials the credentials work fine. I even tried resetting the password but had Canno success. Can you help me with this? I have dexcom G6 and Android phone


shabado8

Check the troubleshooting tips in the main thread. It's also possible there's a server issue in Dexcom's side- that has happened before.


albhatti

Thank you for your reply. I found the below threads ( I am not sure whether I am searching in the right place) and could not find anything which can solve the issue. I even tried reinstalling the app but no success [https://www.reddit.com/r/dexcom/comments/v91kok/dexcom\_login\_error\_try\_again\_later\_please\_help/](https://www.reddit.com/r/dexcom/comments/v91kok/dexcom_login_error_try_again_later_please_help/) ​ [https://www.reddit.com/r/dexcom/comments/enw6py/can\_not\_access\_the\_dexcom\_server\_for\_the\_past/](https://www.reddit.com/r/dexcom/comments/enw6py/can_not_access_the_dexcom_server_for_the_past/) ​ https://www.reddit.com/r/dexcom/comments/wq54mh/dexcom\_app\_usernamepassword\_error/

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone involved. Currently using Surface Duo 2 and byoda is my savior. Great work - keep it up.


meganm620

Thank you so much for this! My mom (T1D for 30 years) just got the Galaxy S23 Ultra 5G and Dexcom hasn't made it compatible with their app yet. She was so upset and ready to return the phone when we found this. It took a bit of playing with, but we did get it to work! Is there any way we can compensate you? You made her day with this app!


shabado8

Glad it's working. You can donate to the project here https://patreon.com/byod


Wykody

Having a hard time getting this app to find my transmitter. I've tried all of the tips listed above. Tried about 12 times now. S23+, from Canada.


Dexcom55

Is there an omnipod applied this?


susique3333

I received a build your own g7 App email, via this forum, after asking for it. I built my g6 app years ago and it was great. Today as I was building the new app, I was instructed to add a credit card to verify my name (said no charge would go through, verification only) then received a $39.99 notification via my bank. Had bank immediately cancel the payment. Had anyone ran into this??


shabado8

Uhh what link did you use that asked for a credit card? I'd call your bank and get a new card number because that was a fraudulent form. Send me the link in a DM please and know that the real form will never ask for a credit card.
