I've only recently become a backer, after hearing that it will be water resistant to IP 67 - is there any more information about this as I'm a bit cynical given that it has an open headphone jack?
[Other SmartWatches] MarkBro:
Neptune had said that they were working on water resistantcy, now they are saying the testing

Was complete and it is water resistant but gave no rating, they were shooting for IP67
[Other SmartWatches] markyboy81:
Would be good to get some official clarification on this and also whether it's approved for Google play, before the campaign ends
[Other SmartWatches] spinedoc:
Is the glass an upgrade? Or is everyones order going to be delayed until March?
[Other SmartWatches] darkproximity:
The tougher glass is an upgrade, so if you want it you have to wait longer for it.

---------- Post added at 12:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:55 AM ----------

They already said that out of the box it won't have official google play support, as that process can take months to complete, but they are pursuing it.

So that means to me that it will eventually have it officially, but until then im sure we'll be able to side load it.
[Other SmartWatches] ronaldheld:
If no CDMA watches until March I can afford to wait longer for the initial reviews.
[Other SmartWatches] darkproximity:
They got over $20k in the last hour, pretty awesome! Also was able to grab one of the last early adopter 32gb ones :)
[Other SmartWatches] theoppositeman:
Thats good guys.

Now many of our friends yhere will head on here for further discussions..that will bw good considering many of them are actually very good in gadgets and stuff...

Cant wait to root and dig in the Pine..

T28@MT1-U06 HAM
[Other SmartWatches] darkproximity:
I know the feeling! I actually bought a galaxy gear to hold me over until I get the pine.. lol
[Other SmartWatches] rfs830:
Cant wait to see what XDA can do with the pine.
[Other SmartWatches] seth50k:
Biggest question I have is are there any talented ROM developers that have backed this or are interested in it?
[Other SmartWatches] theoppositeman:
Neptune confirmed us tje Pune can be rooted so i think the safest way is wait for their suggestions on what root method they recommend.

What i wish first is to find some apps that can create clockfaces so that i can create many great clockfaces like our friends submit in Neptune site.

T28@MT1-U06 HAM
[Other SmartWatches] darkproximity:
Theres always time to learn how..

I've been thinking about trying my hand at modifying android lately I've got loads of experience with linux, though I haven't tinkered a ton with android beyond rooting and installing roms, but right now I wish I would've taken more interest in the development side back when I got the HTC G1
[Other SmartWatches] RudeReality:
Hoping this forum is filled with useful ideas and apps/hacks soon! Can't wait!
[Other SmartWatches] theoppositeman:
Yeah, Rude glad you're here.

Since using android, i always root them just 2/3 days getting them. There are some stable rooting method and for me rooting is what makes the android, android..

---------- Post added at 01:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:04 PM ----------

Lets started with apps that compatible to view in the Pines 320x240 resolutions. Anyone has much on this?

T28@MT1-U06 HAM

---------- Post added at 01:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:06 PM ----------

Hi Darkproximity,

Why not ask Gerald switch the newly added Pine thread to this/combine it? It will be cluttered/uneasy way to switch between two different categories.

T28@MT1-U06 HAM
[Other SmartWatches] darkproximity:
I root same day lol.. with my most recent purchase, the gear I had it rooted with null rom installed within a few hours, only thing that slowed me down was download times

---------- Post added at 09:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:12 PM ----------

As for the resolution, thats not a problem so long as xposed framework is installed with app settings module.. you can easily scale down apps so they display normally on the watch. Im running nova launcher on my gear and everything looks like a mini version of a phone.
[Other SmartWatches] randy2:
Well im a backer and I'm excited about the device I wonder what is the 800k stretch goal anyway if any of the backers are on here let me no by pm
[Other SmartWatches] darkproximity:
I don't think he understands what I'm telling him, oh well.. his thread will basically go unnoticed, definitely not in a logical forum. It will only be found if someone does a search, while this thread is logically placed and easily found
[Other SmartWatches] RudeReality:
Might pay for him to watch the noob video, which is laughs...
[Other SmartWatches] darkproximity:
They didn't announce one so I doubt there will be one, if they do I'll post in here
[Other SmartWatches] theoppositeman:
No 800k as we know Randy..

Only sandwiches Rude ask from them...hahaha.

8x from goals does makes difference. Hope they're giving us goodies...in the box

I pledge 32 with trio+extra strap+bumper....

D those combos 64 and 1k backers should get more, dont you agree?..

T28@MT1-U06 HAM
[Other SmartWatches] seth50k:
1k backer level is a crap sandwich, a joke really. They didn't think that one through very well.
[Other SmartWatches] darkproximity:
I think the 1k backers should get something more lol but then it might cost a lot extra to have the manufacturer make the casing in any other color than white or black, since it wont be mass produced, though I doubt its enough to make up the difference

The 64gb backers are getting a good deal I guess.. idk how much 64gb micro sd cards cost now a days.

It is theoretically possible to upgrade the sd card on your own, but then you'll probably void the warranty. It would be nice if they used faster sd cards though.
[Other SmartWatches] RudeReality:
That's my worry ATM, the card speed. Mem size is not an issue for me, as I am not a digital pack rat, and don't store much long term. The speed, impacting my using the mem for an easy flash drive, sounds a bit slow...
[Other SmartWatches] theoppositeman:
Its like we're back to the 90's using class 4 sd...in this generation, that'll be like dinosaur age..oh well guess we dont have a choice..

T28@MT1-U06 HAM
[Other SmartWatches] RudeReality:
There's a choice...between voiding the warranty and possible damage to your device, or live with the slow transfer speed...ouch
[Other SmartWatches] flascrnwrtr:
That is why I am pretty set on waiting until March for mine. I have the 64GB and want the stronger glass, possible better processor (KitKat) and maybe they will have change the speed, as well.
[Other SmartWatches] Daddie O:
I'm in for the 64GB with trio of accessories as well. Since I'll be mostly tethering the Pine to my Note 3, I don't really care if it's CMDA or GSM, but if CDMA is going to have a better chipset I will wait for that. I will wait for the Gorilla or Sapphire glass anyway. Now to decide, jet black or polar white...
[Other SmartWatches] seth50k:
I don't understand why class 4.....class 10 stuff isn't that expensive anymore, especially not in bulk...

---------- Post added at 06:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:52 PM ----------

That would have been a really good stretch goal, upgrade to class 10...

I thought about doing GSM, but Verizon is sooo controlling I have a feeling Neptune might run into trouble with them, or be looking at changes or a much longer timeline...

---------- Post added at 06:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:04 PM ----------

I meant CDMA...
[Other SmartWatches] RudeReality:
Yes, I'm in a dilemma now, over CDMA or GSM, now, with [MENTION=218401]Brian[/MENTION]'s comments about Verizon not allowing root and possibly taking longer than March to get approval for use...bad news, to be sure. I really don't want to switch my carrier, as Verizon is peerless as far as service in N America is concerned, nor do I feel like going through the hassle of informing all of my contacts of my new number. The thought that March may be the EARLIEST to expect CDMA, coupled with their resistance to approving devices allowing root, give me a lot to think about. Guess it's a good thing I have until end of Jan to figure it out...
[Other SmartWatches] darkproximity:
Verizon has no control over whether or not the pine can be rooted.

Whoever said that is mistaken, on phones they resell they make it more difficult to root, but they wont be reselling the pine.

Pine is probably a slightly modified AOSP, pure android without much manufacturer modification, and no carrier modification.

The bootloader will be unlocked, therefore root should be straightforward and easy
[Other SmartWatches] RudeReality:
Good point...that still leaves the unbearable wait, although...
[Other SmartWatches] darkproximity:
Lol yeah I know the feeling.. but it should be worth it, plus if you're waiting for the cdma version anyway, you can probably get the tougher glass at the same time too, since it won't cost more.

I'm content with getting the normal glass and using the screen protectors, id rather not wait if I don't have to.
[Other SmartWatches] RudeReality:
Same here, but CDMA is making that wait for me almost mandatory. Ugh.
[Other SmartWatches] darkproximity:
Just got the survey to place my actual order :)
[Other SmartWatches] vectron:
I don't want to write this as a negative comment, more as an observation based on my experience of using Omate TS now. The big "smartwatch" on your wrist is ok in a summer time when you don't have layer of cloth on. A few days ago, before our heat wave on East Coast, I was wearing a heavy sweatshirt with my Columbia jacket, and looking at TS was useless outside because of its bulk/thickness. I'm afraid with Pine it's going to be even worth. On a contrary, my slim MetaWatch FRAME is a lot easier to use. Just something we never think about when focusing on functionality of the watch rather than ergonomics while wearing layers of winter cloth :(
[Other SmartWatches] darkproximity:
That's why it will be removable and have a lanyard and bumper available lol, so you can at least wear it around your neck when wrist wear isnt possible

---------- Post added at 06:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:14 PM ----------

Holy q&a session on the ks page batman lol
[Other SmartWatches] Srwilliams:
That is why I love following Vectron on all of the different forums and threads because he lends a real life, pragmatic, user experience/perspective to gadgets. He goes beyond the deep detailed spec considerations discussed and gives you everyday concerns and considerations.

Vectron: Your observation about clothing and large displays is so on point. I have to wear suits and sport jackets for work and WHEN I HAD THE GALAXY GEAR IT felt awkward with the bulk extending beyond my suite sleve and shirt cuffs. So, although I am dying for the Neptune I am afraid that wearing it on my wrist with a business suit may not be doable. And, with a suit and tie I do not believe wearing it around my neck is doable either, Something I am going to have to think about
[Other SmartWatches] flascrnwrtr:
They may not be selling the Pine and may not have control over whether it is allowed to root, but they CAN deny it access to their network. Trust me on that because I have had CDMA qualified handsets that faced that exact situation. Therefore, they can quite easily tell Neptune that, if they are going to allow users to root, then they will not be approved for the network. Simple truth. Not saying that will happen, but it is a very real possibility. Part of the reason they squash rooting is because of customer support if you ruin it (on the phones they sell), but the other real world reason is for security risks to their network. If you think that just because they don't sell it, that they don't care if it is rooted and unlocked... I have a bridge.
[Other SmartWatches] darkproximity:
They may require the bootloader to be locked but that doesn't necessarily mean it can't be changed later, afterall there are a lot of verizon roms on xda.

I don't see how having root access on a phone is a threat to their network though, localized elevated access on a personal device hardly presents a threat to a large cell network.

That's like saying comcast wont let you use their internet connection because you use windows with administrator privileges, or run linux and obviously have root access on your own machine. If they tried to say that I call BS.

I think the only real reason they wouldn't want you to root is because they don't want you to be able to get services for free, that they charge for, like tethering
[Other SmartWatches] RudeReality:
Being that I live in BFE, even in Cali, I have no choice but to wait it out for CDMA. The whole root debacle had better not impact the timeframe for me getting my Pine, or heads will roll...Toronto isn't THAT far away...
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayfrancis88:
My dell streak just went off a couple of days ago and got stuck on the dell logo when it restarted. Its been like that ever since. i tried factory reset a number of times but it still wouldn't work and the phone "passes" the sd/sim test. I've searched for solutions on the internet for a while now and NOTHING... i found out i could actually get it to work if i flashed a custom recovery img and matching ROM but... i cant use flashboot cos my USBport no longer works, although I can get into flashboot. And i also tried updating the ROM with a pkg i downloaded off the internet but i get a blank black screen when i choose the "update via sd card" option. Was just wondering if there was a way i could still flash a stock/custom img and ROM via the "update via sd card option" in recovery. (my phonez unrooted and its got a stock ROM atm). PLEASE HELLLPPPPPP!!!! (current OS version= GAUSB1A111231)
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Change the size of the font used in your post. We can read perfectly well here.

You currently are running Android 1.6 and can install a 1.6 ROM to fix your bootloop, but upgrading will not be possible unless you fix the connector port. This is because the recovery and the ROM must have matching regions. To change the recovery requires fastboot, thus no port, no upgrade.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayfrancis88:
thanks but....

LOL....thanks...can i please trouble you for a link to a suitable ROM? ...(please?) ...and you're saying the "update via sd card" option in my current recovery 'll work if i used a 1.6 ROM? ...fixing the port in Belize is no easy task....i just need it working (forget upgrading..lol.).. (current OS version= GAUSB1A111231)...thanks for ur anticipated help :)

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Similar answer to the OP. Get your connector port fixed or replaced if you expect to resurrect your Streak. You have a stock recovery as well as a really old version of Android according to the baseband. Custom ROMs cannot be installed using a stock recovery.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wear90:

Okay guys i tried to flash the stock rom and i think i bricked my tablet. I have the screen of a google in the center, start in an arrow box top right, booting failed top left, and a unlock symbol at the bottom. No matter what i do i can't seem to flash anything. Ive tried everything any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tricotico:
similar problem

first sorry for the bad english

i fix it with the Nexus 7 ToolKit 5.0.0

you have to install

when you open it, it ask if we want to check for updates

type no

it ask for the android version

i have a nexus 7 32gb 4.3

but using the option 15 it worked

select yours

another menu will appear

now you have to select the option # 9

type 9

another menu will appear

use option 1 to download the android archive and then when finished downloading

use option 2

you will see a message

your device must be in fastboot mode

type yes

expects to complete the process (I had to do the process twice, did not work the first time but I tried again and it worked)

I hope it works for you:)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paras:
Hello everyone,

Iam not new to rooting but after using custom roms on my note 2 I really don't find any reason to root my s4.

I only want 2 things from rooting.One is that can use software like titanium backup so I can use freeze options etc and make a backup of my rom.

Basically for root apps and nothing else.I heard about chain auto root and my version xwubmg5.I want to ask is it safe to use this rooting process to root my phone if Iam using only apps?

Thanks alot for help.

[Google Chromecast] cjstock:
When a device wants to connect to the school wifi it has to log in through a web browser. Because of this, my chromecast wont connect to the internet. It connects to the wifi, but cannot access the internet. Is there anything I can do?
[Google Chromecast] ahecht:
Use another computer that lets you spoof your MAC address, change your MAC to match the chromecast, connect to WiFi and log into your school's gateway page, disconnect your computer and change the MAC back, and connect the chromecast.
[Google Chromecast] stormglove:
Sometimes you can call the provider and they will hook it up on the end. I've had to do this several times with xbox
[Google Chromecast] razgriz8426:
I had a similar problem, but I couldn't even connect to the wifi because it required my username and password for the wifi. So I bought a $15 router from newegg and it's working wonderfully. Plus, plugging into the ethernet in my room is faster and the connection is more solid. Definitely worth it.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tgreenstein:
I got this Dinc 2 used. When it's plugged into the charger the red light flashes 8-10 times quickly, then after awhile (more than 5 minutes) the "HTC" white screen shows up, then goes back to black. Pressing PWR and Vol- doesn't do anything.

The battery reads about 2.8v and doesn't seem to be charging (that is, the red light goes out after the initial flashes). Will this unit boot with a bad battery?

Do you think there's any hope for this unit? Externally it's in almost perfect shape. The previous owner says he did the HTC unlock.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] FordNate:
could be the battery vould also be the charging port.. bot repairs under $10 a piece. Buy/replace battery first and go from there. phone will not boot without battery..
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tgreenstein:
OK, so I got a new battery and now I can get to the fastboot screen. However, I can't reboot into anything; all I get is the white "HTC" screen for a few seconds, then the screen goes dark, and ten or fifteen seconds later I get the "HTC" screen again, etc. etc. etc.

The HBOOT version was 0.98 something. I was able to run the CRC check, if that information is useful.

osb1: 0x0

amss: 0x60652FC

hboot: 0xC7661188

recovery: 0xE012D109

system: 0xCCE69132

I can't leave the battery in the unit because it will continuously reboot and the battery eventually starts to overheat (I'm guessing that's what happened to the original battery).

Any suggestions?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] FordNate:
find the latest RUU for the Vivow(thats our phone) and use the RUU on it... Happened to my old ladies phone (Holiday) and that was the only way to get it back... Dont worry you will have to reroot the thing...:silly:
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] tgreenstein:
No joy on flashing the RUU. I used

RUU_Vivo_W_Gingerbread_S_VERIZON_WWE_5.10.605.9_Radio_1.09.01.1111_NV_VZW1.92_release_225831_signed

renamed it to PG32IMG.ZIP, placed it in the root directory of my sd card, went into HBOOT. Seemed to read the .zip file, then gave two error messages, something about "no image or wrong image". Then it returns the main HBOOT screen.

It also seemed to be looking for PG32DIAG.ZIP. Is that something that needs to be flashed first?

Any other suggestions?
