I have the beats mod and I was able to update. Do as ClearD stated...
[Other SmartWatches] sargist:
Thanks a lot, I'm gonna do it right now, and as soon as I finish I'll post the result.

I suppose I won't get the google play working with this procedure...

Thanks again
[Other SmartWatches] ClearD:
To get google play working, just flash the rom version 1.1.2B from the same link I gave you before, after you root. :) It now includes it.
[Other SmartWatches] sargist:
When I finished the return to stock i.noticed that it was still in adb mode so. Stop.it with the easy modder. Then the motocast USB AUTOMATICALLY STARTED and it says wait while motocast USB loads the content, but it has been like that for 15 minutes.

Also I noticed that my MotoActv still has the directories and files in its memory (MOTOACTV D: in the computer) such as Android, data, download, etc.

Any ideas?

Thanks
[Other SmartWatches] ClearD:
It's re-syncing, from what it appears. Mine did not do that, because I don't have anything synced to my actv.

In other news... WHO LIKES GREEN BATTERY ICONS? :)

I'm going to be making some new ones, too. ;) Right now, mine are a pretty shade of green. Also, I found the files I need to modify, so it shouldn't be long before I get it to show 1% increments, let's hope. :)
[Other SmartWatches] galatians51:
Yes, I had purchased CoPilot Live a while back and tried it on the Motoactv. It works splendidly. So cool having turn by turn GPS on your arm...

As a side note, it is CoPilot Live USA (the older version). I have not tried CoPilot Live Premium yet.

Hi just a comment the link for the ROM image on the wiki is missing a ":" between "http" not big deal . And as a suggestion for battery app I am using this one from market TEAM Battery Bar https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pvy.batterybar&feature=search_result that implements a small line with customizable colors...
[Other SmartWatches] codeman05:
Hey guys,

The link for CD 1.1.2B doesn't appear to be working on the Wiki

Does anyone have the file or a mirror?

thanks

edit

Nevermind...noticed the link was a bad URL and fixed it
[Other SmartWatches] ClearD:
Sorry about that, it's fixed now. :)

And I'm not talking about a battery "app"... I'm talking about the physical battery meter in the upper right hand corner. I got it decompiled last night and changed it all up. green for 100-50%, yellow for 40 and 30, red for 20% or lower.
[Other SmartWatches] nosit1:
Exactly what I'm looking for. I'll have to give it a try and see how it works. Want to try mounting the motoactv to my motorcycle.
[Other SmartWatches] fernandoavc:
Oh yeah I know you were talking about the "stock" battery meter I was just giving an alternative to someone like me that uses a launcher with no status bar at all... And thanks for the great work I was using your 1.1.5 root tool app to upgrade the watch to 1.6.7 version that worked flawlessly .
[Other SmartWatches] ClearD:
Excellent :) the problem with app type battery meters is that they poll the battery and drain it more while they read it.

Edit: tonight I'm going to try to make a circle battery. The problem looks to be the icon size so far, I'll have to manufacture my own icons from scratch.
[Other SmartWatches] Prack:
What button configuration are you all finding the best? I had start - home and music - menu but found out at the gym today that I can't start a workout without the start button :(
[Other SmartWatches] fernandoavc:
In my case I only remap the buttons once to be able to set superuser to auto-accept the superuser requests then I install the button savior and get the buttons back to stock since menu and home are easily accessed through this app....
[Other SmartWatches] ClearD:
I DID IT!!!!

Pardon my language, but you guys are about to **** a brick.

I did it. I got 1% battery increments, AND made you guys a nice pretty little super circle battery mod, the same version as the green modpack in ClearDroid for the HTC Inspire 4G.

All new icons, sexy charging animation, 1% battery increments IN THE STATUS BAR. :cool: ;)

So... beta testers please? :cool:
[Other SmartWatches] TheEndGame7:
Siiick! Did someone say tester??? Here I am! :D Great job man! Congrats!
[Other SmartWatches] Prack:
Should I be able to log into the android market with my google account? I flashed 1.1.2B, connected to pc, connected to wifi etc. Syncs with my phone over BT and what not but says no connection when I put in my google account/password.

Also I'd love to test the new build. :)

---------- Post added at 09:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:48 PM ----------

I figured out how to get signed in. Maybe not the way it was intended but I added the power widget to the desktop and turned wifi on and then tried it.
[Other SmartWatches] ClearD:
Yep, that's how I do it lol. I use wifi manager to sign in, after I use the power widget to turn wifi on. TheEndGame just tested, and bdaman is testing also. I'm going to make a flashable zip of it as soon as I can, for easier install, as I had them manually push and permission the files via ADB. :)
[Other SmartWatches] nosit1:
That's how it's intended.
[Other SmartWatches] speedyink:
Great job!! Patiently awaiting a zip :)
[Other SmartWatches] Jeff:
1% Increments

Too cool ClearD!!! I have been looking into the services.jar, thought I was close but no dice - I am super stoked to see you did it... patiently awaiting your ZIP.
[Other SmartWatches] ClearD:
This one hasn't yet been tested in zip format, but it should work. Modified the updater script a bit, and signed it successfully. The folder hierarchy should also be correct. Now, I need a brave soul to test it. :cool:

Make sure to make a nandroid backup first (clockworkmod), then clear cache and dalvik cache, then flash.

This base is from the 1.6.6 version, though it should work on 1.6.0-1.6.7. :cool:

INCLUDED:

-SystemUI.apk - modded pulldown bar (usable one with no "no service" bar at the top)

-services.jar - modded for 1% battery increments

-framework-res.apk - modded with circle battery mod and charging animation a la UOT style. Well, similar at least. Highly scaled down. If it's too awful, we can change the icons later. ;)

Download ClearDroid MotoACTV ModPack Version 1.0
[Other SmartWatches] Jeff:
Great!

1% Seems to be working, battery circle icon is pretty small and somewhat illegible. Still a major improvement over the stock. I am on your 1.1.2b ROM Damn nice work though... keep it up.

Battery charge animation is really nice too!
[Other SmartWatches] simx:
The 1% increment working fine, the color circle is also very good idea, but I can't see whats inside it.

Thanks a lot ClearD

NA

update: suggestion, remove the number inside the circle and make the circle a bit thicker
[Other SmartWatches] nosit1:
Guess what I just found in my laundry. Looks like it's dead. :(
[Other SmartWatches] speedyink:
>_<

That's really not a good place for it

The 1% increments and battery circle are working great, although it seems to have messed up my root..I can't give anything root access now, even after re-rooting. I'll try starting from scratch I suppose.
[Other SmartWatches] ClearD:
Can't make the icons thicker, limited by the size of them lol. They're 21x20 pixels, which sucks. I'll try a different icon completely tonight.

Nothing posted should touch anything root related at all. :confused:
[Other SmartWatches] speedyink:
I kind of figured that, I'm chalkin this one up to some weird fluke. It's not hard to restart the thing from scratch so I'll do that
[Other SmartWatches] kevina90:
actually..... i just lost root too 0.o its weird, whenever i open an app that needs su, a quick message pops up telling me the app is denied permissions.
[Other SmartWatches] fernandoavc:
Oh boy..that's your second one isn't?
[Other SmartWatches] nosit1:
First. :(
[Other SmartWatches] fernandoavc:
Haven't you sent one back cuz it bricked?
[Other SmartWatches] fernandoavc:
I lost too but I did the full wipe/davik then install the ROM from ClearD also.
[Other SmartWatches] ClearD:
You guys losing root, is your superuser app set to auto-allow? Double check it. If it's auto-denying, that doesn't necessarily mean you lost root, it could just be the app. Also, you might try just re-running the "Root" button on the root tool, as it *only* installs the necessary root files and binaries. But if you do that, double check your superuser app afterwards again, just in case lol.
[Other SmartWatches] Prack:
Is the wifi on duration a setting that can get changed in the build prop etc? I noticed the wifi turns off after a few minutes. I'd like it to stay on unless I tell it otherwise.

Also does anyone know of a good keyboard? I tried to log into netflix and noticed the rom doesn't include one :)
[Other SmartWatches] ClearD:
Not sure about the wifi, will look into it. As for keyboard, everyone said Flit was really good. :) I couldn't find it on the market on the device, might have to sideload it.
[Other SmartWatches] speedyink:
Superuser is set to auto allow, but I still get the access denied popup. Oddly enough superuser will give itself super user access when attempting to update the binaries, but the binaries don't actually succeed in updating.

I tried re-rooting using jay's script, but I will try it again with your tool.

Edit: Re-rooting with ClearD's root tool fixes the super user denied messages, now it's working fine here.

Once it turns off after the first time after booting, turn it back on and it should stay on.
[Other SmartWatches] nosit1:
Button combo got that one fixed. It was the bootloader loop.

Device isn't turning on, but I'm getting the charging light when plugged into the PC.
[Other SmartWatches] fernandoavc:
In my case the super user app wasn't there... I used the option to root after apply the ROM then the battery mod you did.
[Other SmartWatches] dragonfly1113:
im on the original cleardroid rom do i have to wipe data and cache to put this 1.1b on? or can i just install over the first one i have? couldnt find the answer in the thread, thanks. i know on wikispaces it said for the last update you can just install it over the other rom was curious if this was the same way or not.
[Other SmartWatches] ClearD:
Couldn't hurt to wipe cache and dalvik cache minimum before installing. :)
[Other SmartWatches] ClearD:
New battery images?

How about these:
[Other SmartWatches] sargist:
I did it finally, first update it through motocast and then root it again, it is working very good .

When I try to install the zip through clockworkmod for the google play working it gives me the same error as always, is there any other way to apply this install?

Thanks
[Other SmartWatches] Jeff:
Transparent Battery Icons

All: the attached Framework-res.apk will give you transparent battery icons, i.e. there will not be any battery icon next to the percentage (I thought it was redundant). I left the charging icon, i.e. it will show a charging icon when charging, but will be otherwise transparent... thus it will seem to 'blink' when charging, which I thought pretty cool.

FORWARNING: Install ClearD's Mod first to get the right files on the device, reboot first and then push this file like:

adb remount

adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework

adb shell chmod 644 /system/framework/framework-res.apk

adb reboot

It should also be noted that the push will change your wallpaper back to default as well as erase your Google login, which should not be a problem to redo. I tested this myself and there are seemingly no issues.

No one is obligated to push this new APK, so if you chose to don't complain that something is not working because if you do as instructed above it will work... I only GIMPed the PNGs that ClearD provided in his MOD so credit goes to him for his hard work, I only Modded its content, thats it.

If you complain about Beats Audio or crazy stuff like that, this might be over your head and you should sit back and contemplate if you should go further before you start pushing system files, or you could do a NandBackup before the push either way just dont complain that something doesn't work because it does.

Peace!
[Other SmartWatches] kensikora:
Okay, this Motoactv thing is messing with me. I know it.

I had Shake to Wake working perfectly on ClearDroid 1.1.1, as well as my pedometer working like it's supposed to, and I decided to upgrade to ClearDroid 1.1.2B. Now, it's no longer working, no matter how many times I reboot.

So I figure maybe I'll reflash the ROM without clearing data. Still no dice.

I figure maybe I'll reflash 1.1.1 over the top without clearing data. Nothing.

AndroSensor still shows my accelerometer as "waiting for event."

It's messing with me, guys. It's getting inside my head. Now I'm shaking my arm like a moron because, for two weeks, that used to work.

Edit: For me, shake to wake is more important than the Play Store, so for now, I used the root tool to return to rooted stock and pushed a few apks manually. I'm going to take the time tomorrow to try and figure out what's broken.
[Other SmartWatches] fernandoavc:
Strange cuz I just shake my wrist to check if it's working and it is... I'm on version 1.1.2b ClearS ROM. Just root is acting weird I just found I've lost root for some apps.
[Other SmartWatches] jiexi:
I had problems flashing cleardroid 1.1.2B, it always got stuck on the M logo and would have to goto bootloader and return to stock.

I was able to flash cleardroid 1.0.0 without issues.

I then tried flashing cleardroid 1.1.2A and screwed myself. It won't boot or anything now.

If I try going into fastboot, it keeps flashing on the screen telling me that battery is too low cannot program.

If I just let it boot, it gets stuck on the M logo.

If I vol+power+start, it'll turn off. But when i plug it into a usb charger, it turns on and gets stuck on the M logo. :(

:(( What do I do? Did I brick it? Should I exchange it soon?

EDIT: Here's how to fix... May want to sticky this somewhere, I apologize if this is common knowledge already.

If your device is stuck on the M and says "low battery cannot charge" in fastboot.

1. Turn your device off by holding volume buttons + power + start buttons for 5 seconds till screen turns off

2. with the device unplugged, enter fastboot via power+start until screen is lit

3. ignore the "low battery warning", plug the device into a USB WALL charger.

It should now say "OK to program"

4. Unplug it from the Wall charger and plug it into your computer, return to stock.

5. ???

6. Profit

7. No but really... I **** my pants figuring this out. Device only just arrived today too
[Other SmartWatches] ClearD:
Google "Motorola Factory Cable", it's a special cable you can order, that will power the device when it's in fastboot mode. It's how they flash motorola devices without a battery in the device.

This website teaches you how to make one, and this part is what I'm using to make mine with (it was posted previously by another user). I hope that helps. There also may be websites where you can order them online pre-made, but the ones I've seen are sold out so far.

EDIT: They're not sold out on ebay! I'm buying one right now for just $8.50 lol. Make sure it's a factory (fastboot) cable. :)

Here's the one I bought!
[Other SmartWatches] jiexi:
Already got it working, thanks ClearD :)

Could you help me with flashing your 1.1.2B rom?

It never makes it past the M logo for me. I always end up returning to stock rom because it gets stuck in a bootloop :/

Is there anything I'm doing wrong? Is there a certain order I should flash your roms? Or am I missing common flashing practices (though my 4th android device, so i doubt it. But... who knows)?

Thanks! :)
[Other SmartWatches] ClearD:
Make sure you're charged back up to 100%, first lol. Did you try flashing 1.1.2B after doing a full wipe? Others have had issues flashing it over top of the previous roms, as this one is a new build entirely (1.6.6). Also, is your device 8G or 16G? And is it a US version?
[Other SmartWatches] jiexi:
Define full wipe, system included? >.<

16G, US version I assume (bought from amazon) how do I check?

Thanks :D appreciate the help
[Other SmartWatches] ClearD:
Yes, full wipe is system and data included. The Rom was also built for the 8g version, but whether it actually makes a difference or not is yet to be seen lol.
[Other SmartWatches] fernandoavc:
Didn't he mentioned the define by entering into recovery mode (type adb reboot recovery from command prompt) then you will be able to see both options for wipe system and dalvik.
[Other SmartWatches] jiexi:
I tried wiping cache, dalvik, data, and system before flashing via recovery, it doesn't work. Still hangs at the M logo.

:( Maybe 16G does make a difference? Or maybe i'm still doing it wrong.

EDIT: is there a way to get into recovery via button pressing at boot as opposed to adb or clockword mod app?
[Other SmartWatches] nosit1:
There's no such button combo at this time.
[Other SmartWatches] 2010ngojo:
Would this affect the wifi at all. It seems the wifi turns off sooner after pushing the apk. Heck, I dont even know if I even did this correctly as I still see the battery icon. Your instructions should to be clearer. For example note the line:

adb push Framework-res.apk /system/framework

it should be something more like:

adb push C:/Framework-res.apk /system/framework

if the apk is located in the root of the C drive.
[Other SmartWatches] jiexi:
I'm having trouble getting the play store to remotely download.

Keeps telling me that something "vending" has force closed.

Is this fixed/not an issue in cleardroid 1.1.2B?
[Other SmartWatches] nosit1:
You mean using the play store online and sending to device?
[Other SmartWatches] Jeff:
If the instructions were not clear to you, you may wish to abstain from pushing system files... The location of the file to push was obvious, assumed and implied, if not again take a minute to reflect on the necessity of pushing sys files. For those having difficulty finding the file that you just downloaded might I suggest ALT+F4 and get a coffee.
[Other SmartWatches] jiexi:
Yup, it always causes force closes. I've read else where that searching in the market causes force closes, having the same issues also.

Assuming these issues have been addressed already?

Also, don't update the ROM manager app already installed because the one from the market causes force closes also.
[Other SmartWatches] Jeff:
Correct, these issues have been discussed. To search Google Play you need to use the Market Search tool that was made to circumvent this problem.
[Other SmartWatches] jiexi:
Is there anything out there to fix the remote market push to work?

Also, anyone else having problems where the play store will say that all the apps are not compatible with this device?
[Other SmartWatches] dragonfly1113:
How did you free up that much space to install all those programs? im only able to install about 8 before it tells me im out of space and im on the 8gb version too.
[Other SmartWatches] Itslame:
If you have no intention of using the Motoactv fitness apps; purging the unit of the stock launcher and various moto apps frees up quite a bit of space.
[Other SmartWatches] dragonfly1113:
i do enjoy the main launcher though and do use it. guess i just have to be selective with my apps i use lol. unless i can get rid of some stuff, like the only thing i care about is the calories/steps thing/golf update/ and notifications. rest id willingly get rid of.
[Other SmartWatches] d2tw4all:
Could use some input here, I rooted my 8G actv wayyyy back in the beginning before the scripts were even written, and really haven't touched it since. Seems like it might make sense to "upgrade" things, but since I'm not an android modder I don't want to risk bricking my favorite watch. My question then is, given a watch that has already been rooted, what are the simplest steps to upgrade it to the "latest and greatest"?

Tom
[Other SmartWatches] 2010ngojo:
Oddly enough when I followed your instructions there are now 2 framework-res.apk's in the system/framework folder. One with the name "framework-res.apk" and the other "Framework-res.apk", with a capital F.

I think its because of this line from your instructions:

"adb shell chmod 644 /system/framework/Framework-res.apk"
[Other SmartWatches] Margino:
I use Apps2SD to move all moveable apps to my SD card. I haven't uninstalled the stock launcher/apps though but that's certainly something to bear in mind.

---------- Post added at 07:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:42 PM ----------

- Install Clockwork Recovery (CWR). You'll need ADB configured on your computer. There are plenty of searchable guides on how to do this if you don't have it installed.

- Visit the MotoACTV Wiki and grab ClearDroid from the 7. ROMs section. The current version is ClearDroid MotoACTV Version 1.1.2 B. Copy this file onto your SDCard.

- Install Rom Manager from Google Play, open the app and select 'reboot into recovery'. If you don't have access to Google Play, connect the watch via USB and type adb reboot recovery from a command prompt.

- After reboot into CWR, wipe cache partition and Advanced->Wipe Dalvik Cache.

- Back on the first list of menu items in CWR, select 'Install zip from SDcard' then' choose zip from sdcard'. Select the ClearDroid zip you copied across previously.

- It will flash ClearDroid onto your device. The first time I did it it hung at the Motorola logo, but I repeated the cache wipes and reflashed. It worked after that. May just be a glitch on my end there. If you need to get back into CWR after doing a cache wipe use adb reboot recovery.

---------- Post added at 07:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:12 PM ----------

Market push is working for me and most of my apps are compatible using ClearDroid 1.1.2. Which version are you using?
[Other SmartWatches] zathril:
On the right bottom bezel you can see some "transparent dot". Is this a light sensor or proximity sensor or something else? Has anyone tried to interact with it to see if it's programmable?
[Other SmartWatches] Margino:
Try wiping both caches and flashing again. Worked for me.

---------- Post added at 07:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:23 PM ----------

It's an ambient light sensor.

[Other SmartWatches] jiexi:
As in... Flash back to root stock rom, then go to recovery, wipe dalvik cache and cache, then flash the ROM?

OR... wipe dalvik cache, cache, and system, then flash ROM?

Is there a way to get back into recovery even after bootlooping and getting stuck at the M logo? Through fastboot or something?
[Other SmartWatches] Prack:
I have to say that both the flit keyboard and button savior are great suggestions for this little device. I've got it doing just about everything I want already.

Has anyone tried this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1459445
[Other SmartWatches] Margino:
In my case I rebooted to Clockwork, wiped both caches and flashed ClearDroid 1.1.2 zip from my sdcard. The watch rebooted and would not progress past the Motorola logo. I then re-entered Clockwork, wiped both caches again and flashed the zip file (just repeated the procedure exactly) and this time it booted all the way.

I can't remember how I re-entered Clockwork when it was hanging at the logo. I'm pretty sure I attached a USB cable and did a 'adb reboot recovery' command but not too clear if the command was issued at the stuck logo or in Fastboot (hold start, power on, release when screen comes on).
[Other SmartWatches] dragonfly1113:
Yeah i've done it on mine it free'd up a little more room but i think i did it wrong since i still didnt free up enough to add too many more apps than i was normally. either that or the apps i want just arent allowed to run on the sd card.
[Other SmartWatches] fernandoavc:
Sounds cool I'm impressed how Motorola updating this little device! very good information although I didn't saw this available to me yet.
