Band 2, Cortana, and Lumia 650 - anyone got it working?

[David Steadson]

Just wondering if there is anyone who has managed to get the Band 2 action button and Cortana working with a Lumia 650? I've seen numerous reports of people managing to get it going with 950s, but I've never got it working more than a couple of times on my 650.

Various notifications work fine, so they're talking.

What part doesn't work? If you hold the action button it won't bring up Cortanna?

No, never worked.

So it's not a Cortanna thing it's an overall connection to the phone? Is this a new phone for you? Did you do the replace my band on the old phone?

Are both your phone and band in Language english, with region set to UK (or another Cortana enabled language/region).

I've had the 650 for 2 1/2 months. Every thing else, with the Band, works fine, just this issue.

I suggest to open a ticket with Microsoft. They have helped me a lot.

For reasons that I cannot explain, I decided to try again, today, and it worked! No idea why.

my lumia 650 with latest band 2 firmware doesn't work....i'm on threshold build

My band battery died shortly after this post. Just received the new one, installed it, updated firmware, latest Health onthe 650 ... and it worked!!! :shocked:

... the first few times then it stopped ... looks like as soon as the 650 moves Health out of memory it stops working. Even manually opening Health and Cortana on the phone doesn't help.
