I had a Motorola Wireless Bluetooth Headset connected. Tried calling from my home phone to my Google Voice number, and my cell phone number, neither of which worked.
[Other SmartWatches] MinionOfEckerd:
@Jay4255

I used your batch file "clean" my /system/app and didn't realize that it removes the Motorola Launcher. :( Is there anyway to get it back? Thanks!
[Other SmartWatches] NORCALkID:
What i did was Go into fastboot mode and flash my system .img and it put all system apps back including the launcher ...if you check a few posts back jay already answered this
[Other SmartWatches] nosit1:
Any possibility of a digital version? That would be a great help.
[Other SmartWatches] Itslame:
maybe it's the BT; Plug in and see if it works with a wired headset. On a similar note: I did a reset and reloaded the watch. The second time the text notifications stopped commin thru...which sucks as I receive way more texts than I do calls. :mad:

---------- Post added at 02:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:58 AM ----------

From what I can tell, it's finicky. My first load I could get text and call notifications. I wiped it and reloaded only to find I could only get call notifications. As it has been said: Wire a headset in to get calls.
[Other SmartWatches] mOOOp64:
Can I get any help with my loop? My watch is completely useless at the moment! :(
[Other SmartWatches] Itslame:
Power off while plugged into a wall socket and let it sit for an hour. Power up and re-launch fastboot. Your can reflash the system image/user data.
[Other SmartWatches] Jay4255:
That copies all the files onto the SDCard under /sdcard/system/app Just move the APKs back to /system/app and you should be good to go.

I messed up one of the adb commands and now I'm bootlooping. Can anyone help me get an original userdata.img? I already have my system.img.
[Other SmartWatches] Jay4255:
You don't REALLY need the userdata.img, but it's nice to have. If you're bootlooping, follow these steps.

Put the watch in fastboot mode

Restore system with "fastboot flash system system.img"

Wipe Userdata and Cache "fastboot -w"

Restart "fastboot reboot"

It'll take awhile for the watch to start since it has to setup Userdata and Cache partitions, but it should get you fixed. If you need any more help, hop on the IRC webchat.freenode.net #motoactv
[Other SmartWatches] mOOOp64:
But see thats my problem when I plug it in to a wall charger the system turns on automatically and stays at the red moto icon and the charging light wont shine while it is trying to boot like that. I cant even turn off the device or put it into fastboot while its trying to boot from the wall charger. I defiantly know this is NOT a hardware problem but I think I might of bricked my system with software because it seems like there is no way of solving this, help! :(

Hi, I'm new to the forum, but I've been playing with rooting the MotoACTV for a month or so.

I'm hoping someone can write a detailed description of how to update the MotoACTV to the newest version while still remaining rooted. I'm having a lot of trouble with this. Every time I try it, I just end up getting stuck in CWM without the ability to boot into android. I'm able to get back to rooted stock, the issue happens right after that when I attempt to update to the newest version of the MotoACTV software. The update downloads to the computer, then loads onto the device, but when it tries to reboot into the stock recovery, it goes into CWM and gets stuck.

I know about the wikispaces tutorial website (won't let me post a link since I'm new), and I'm trying to follow it, but it doesn't give a very detailed description of exactly how to update.

If anyone wants to write a step-by-step, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks in advance.
[Other SmartWatches] ClearD:
Return to STOCK, not rooted stock. You cannot update while rooted, as updating requires the stock recovery, not clockworkmod.

Return to stock, and then boot your actv and update via motocast to the latest, and then flash the boot image (root tool version 1.1.6) and root. :)

Also throw a few "thanks" to CEnnis91, because without him, my root tool wouldn't have most of its current functionality.

Hi ClearD,

So if I understand you correctly, then once I'm done with this process, I won't have a custom ROM installed. If I were to install your ROM, it would take me back to a previous version. How are people running your custom ROM while remaining on the latest version?

Thanks again.
[Other SmartWatches] ClearD:
They aren't lol. I've not made a 1.7.2 version yet, but I'll work on it soon.

I'm not sure if my mod version works on 1.7.2 or not... Parts of it should.

[Other SmartWatches] Robrain:
Okay, so I'm still reading through everything (also skimmed the link you provided).

I guess my main question really is, what happens to the default Motorola apps (or is it a launcher?) that are on the MOTOACTV as it's originally set up, once you root/flash? Are those still there, or do they disappear (or do you have to manually reinstall them if you want them)?

If they're still there, I'll probably go ahead and root/flash and tinker around with it. If it causes them to get removed, then that kind of reduces the functionality of what I'd originally intended this for, so I'll probably hold off for now in that case.

Thanks for the pointers.
[Other SmartWatches] ClearD:
You lose nothing by rooting, they stay on the device. :)

"Problem loading widget"

I'm getting a problem with zeam launcher where the widgets don't load properly on restart. The power-control widget works fine until a reboot, but then it just shows the text "Problem loading widget". I can remove it and re-add it, and it will work until the next reboot.

Any thoughts?

widget fail

Just tries ADW launcher, same problem (i.e. the widgets fail to load after a reboot - I need to trash and re-add them again). Same issue with the Honeycomb launcher. So, probably not a launcher issue :-)

This is a pretty bare-bones install at this point. I upgraded to 1.7.3 before rooting, used the 1.1.6 Moto Root utility to install the new boot image and su/su.apk/busybox, configured su.apk to auto-allow, and then manually installed the new PackageInstaller.apk and launchers. Oh, and I remapped the start and music buttons to Home and Menu.

That's it... I wonder what I'm doing wrong?
[Other SmartWatches] ClearD:
Hmm I can't really think of much. That's worked for me in the past, unless it is something with 1.7.2/3 that's causing it...

@BIGNAS76: Just a thought: As this thread is the main information source for most MotoACTV users on XDA it might be a good idea to edit the first post and post some general information (i.e. Link to Wiki, to Cennis91 thread and to the MotoACTVFORUM.COM). I think this would prevent a lot of the "unnecessary questions".

What do you think?
[Other SmartWatches] asciibits:
Live and learn :-) I'm not sure how it got to the SD card, I installed it with "adb install", without the '-s' argument. Oh well.

Not seeing the network

Thanks for the great ROM!

I do seem to have one issue though. Trying to run Maps gives me an error that the application needs a data connection. I'm gone through settings and setup WiFi, and I've verified on my router that the MOTOACTV has an IP address, so WiFi is working. Is there something else I need to do on the phone?

Also, not sure if this is related, but Trying to run the Market gives me a dialog saying that I must create an account, but click yes, causes the app to return to the launcher. The error in logcat mentions something about a missing authenticator.

I'm using the 1.1.3 ROM with no modifications other than adding Zeam launcher.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

I feel your pain I have had days like that at work fix one thing then another goes wrong and it just keeps going. I thank you for all your work with this and look froward to trying it out.

You have to manually turn on the wifi through the power widget. The wifi is constantly turning off. This is a well known issue and ClearD is working on getting an updated rom out that will fix that issue. Hopefully will be coming soon. So just wait a day or two. =)

Im still having no luck with bootloader.

when asked to I plug in the motoactv and my pc gives the 3 fast tones and I get a usb device not reconised error.

But if pluged in when the motoactv is running the stock program my pc sees both the internal drives just fine.

So it must be a USB driver problem? if yes where can I get the drivers from, and install them manualy via device manager?

[Other SmartWatches] ClubPetey:
When the Device is stock, did you install Motorola Driver Manager from the second internal drive? That installs a set of USB drivers. I needed to install Driver Manager before I could get my Device to go into fastboot.

The other thing I had installed at the time was RSDLite. I'm not sure if that added any drivers, so might be worth a try. There is a menu option in RSDLite to put your device in Fastboot mode.

yes motocast is still there I have had the watch a while, and have not run into any problems before rooting and changeing roms ect.

I have a Motoactv with version 4.x and wanted to update to 5.x

Should I root it first and will it allow me to update to 5.x without loosing the root access.

My question is, can I have the original Motoactv OS rooted on 5.x and still be able to install custom apps to it by being rooted?

day one Newbie here Galaxy S3 sprint

Well i want to thank all of you for making my decision very easy between sony smartwatch and motoactv. The plus side is i was going to buy at best buy for 250 then drive to another bestbuy for the watch band but instead i stopped in a verizon store and the chick gave me 20 percent off everything to buy it there. so 8gb moto and watch band total price 239 i have the receipt for proof. Also for any other newbies inbox me i can sum up everything i learned today from stock updates to root to wipe flash room again getting keyboard to work...
[Other SmartWatches] volcs0:
I didn't read through the whole thread, so sorry if this has been answered.

I am frustrated with some of the aspects of the MotoACTV software. For instance, the inability to see workout data while paused is very frustrating, and this was a conscious design decision by the developers.

If I root this thing, are there custom versions of the workout software I can use that are better than the stock?

Thanks for the advice.

just bought the watch here in germany

280€ ....wow ... cheapest i could find here in germany ;(

device rooted by ClearD's Root Tool

Costum ROM from ClearDroid incl. his MOD inside

almost everything works pretty well, apps included.

@ClearDroid, thanks for that easy to understand how2Video!!

awesome work!!

just some things dont work as expected:

- that small phone storage for app installing is rly sad.

- random WIFI disconnects.

somehow rly odd...

however i recognized if u ENABLE the "Mobile Network" mode (sounds odd i know)

TOGETHER with the Wifi, the wifi became much more stable if the battery is "green"

(just downloaded like a 1 GB movie out of the dropbox app ;-) )

but if the battery is like red- its still getting alot of Disconnects...

i can activate that mobile network at my GO Launcher useing the widget

"Go Switch"

(where i can easily turn on Wifi GPS screeBrightness bluetooth AND mobile network easy). but i know- the motoactv doenst have mobile network normally.

still i feel kinda it helps alot to improove the Wifi quality and less disconnects,

but i doesnt know why...

- Googleplaystore gets Instant Force close if i use the "search" buttom.

i thought maybe because of the stock keyboard, but then i installed some other keyboards like "A.I.type Keyboard" or "Flit keyboard"

but they didnt helped....
[Other SmartWatches] stoudamire:
Got mine for 180 EUR including the accessoire pack. :-)

All your "problems" are already known.

For searching the market you can use the app "market search" which is available in the PlayStore.

Regarding the WIFI function you might take a closer at this thread. There have been several discussions about it including some suggestions how to stabilize it.

As posted in dproldan's rom thread, I apologize for not being around as much recently. I live in ohio, and we recently had a series of storms blow through that knocked out... damn near all communication with the outside world. At one point, my girlfriend hadn't heard from me for 16 hours straight and thought I went on a fire run and died or something. When I finally get a bar of cell service back, I got 8 texts and 2 voicemails lol.

Needless to say, I have had 36 fire runs the past 3 days, and there's not been much dev time. I also still need to get stupid motocast working again, as there's some .net framework issue when it starts up now, and it dies before I can use it. Blah.
