I wish the Toq had a couple dedicated developers working on apps. The Mirasol screen is great, always on, low battery consumption, long battery life. Intrigued with Android Wear and the new LG & Gear Live watches, but early reports verify that they need charging every night. Why are manufacturers building smart watches with quad core 1.2 MHz processors and sAMOLD screens that drain the Battery? Let the phone do the heavy lifting, which is what the Toq does. I have had the first 2 Sony watches, the Gear 1, Pebble, and now the Toq. Qualcomm gets it. Always on and long life are 2 critical items I desire in a smart watch. The new AW watches are trying for the always on, but those processors and screens wont give the long bat life.

The Toq already provides many of the card served notifications that the first 2 AW watches are rolling out with. With the recent firmware upgrade that activated the mic I am sure "OK Google" could be software implemented on it. Touch the band to go into the applet menu and the mic starts listening.

I know the Toq is just a demonstrator for Mirasol Technology. Qualcomm has demonstrated that it works, but nobody is listening. Maybe they will surprise everyone and also demonstrate how to get an AW type experience with a small but capable processor and a phone app that keeps the heavy processing on the phone. Maybe the "Augmented Smartwatch" developer will play around with the new SDK since he is practically the only one to write an app for our watch.

Till then still loving the Toq. You can pick them up on ebay for about $100. I got mine slightly used from someone that got it at a developers conference but carried and iPhone. Still had the original firmware on it.
[Other SmartWatches] chortya:
Totally agree! It's a real waste of technology and great ideas... I wish Google would just adopt the Toq platform and develop Android Wear for it.

I own both pebble steal and Toq and usually wear them weekly. Pebbke just works and is more flexible in regards to the configurations and 3rd party apps for notification but I love the display of the Toq, the SW also feels more professional but it lacks configurability and 3rd party apps... I am waiting for the Gear Live to arrive but to be honest I already know that 1 day battery life and a display that is not readable outside is just not enough ti make my happy...

I would definetely support a Kickstarter project which would offer an Android Wear watch with Mirasol display and decent battery life.
[Other SmartWatches] Bladder61:
Qualcomm has partnered up with Timex and are releasing a pretty cool running watch. Uses the Mirasol display. It's expensive ($400) and has stand alone cellular connectivity (no phone needed) plus GPS. At least someone is putting the low power always on screen on another device.

Here is a link to info:

http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/08/06/timex-announces-the-ironman-one-gps-a-smartwatch-with-its-own-att-data-connection-and-qualcomms-mirasol-display/

Don't know if we will ever see any more updates on our Toq. I still wear it every day, my Gear is collecting dust in my electronic graveyard drawer.
[Other SmartWatches] mhoepfin:
I love my Toq but have been wearing my G Watch for the last few weeks. Even made a Toq inspired watchface for it - https://plus.google.com/114838002360906581365/posts/BuWde3o9yb8
[Other SmartWatches] Bladder61:
The watch face looks great on your G watch. If LG or Samsung put a Mirasol screen on a future Android Wear watch I think it would be a big seller, low power screen would give the AW platform much longer life. I still put my Gear watch on but seem to always go back to the Toq. Are you getting more than 1 day battery life from the G watch?
[Other SmartWatches] mhoepfin:
Agree with you on the Mirasol display. In fact the Toq has some great design features nobody else has (battery in the clasp to keep watch thin, touch buttons on the strap, etc.)

G Watch is definitely a one-day watch, usually I end the day with 30-40% battery.

I hate having the LCD screen on the G Watch, that is the biggest downer, but in general I like Android wear. But once the newness has worn off it has become just another notification machine, just like the Toq, Gear, Pebble, etc.

It's been a while since the last Toq update, hope Qualcomm hasn't abandoned it...

Current location

Hi,

This has been discussed previously in the thread but all those workarounds didnt work for me. I cannot get current location to work with my toq. I'm running a HTC One M7 with android 4.4.2 and sense 6. I'm not rooted or using any custom rom. It's a European version of the phone.

As a work phone I have a HTC One S with Android 4.1.1 not rooted and on Sense 4+. The thing is when I use it with this phone it works perfectly and I dont have to do anything special to make it work.

I'm a missing something that I need to do on the M7? :confused:

Watch band splitting at the seams

Anyone else run into this.? i took my toq off last night and on the inside of the watchband one of the seams is completely split open! this shouldnt happen on a $350 watch!
[Other SmartWatches] vectron:
That's why it's sold discounted on Amazon for $216 shipped :D But seriously, the hype for this watch died out very quickly...
[Other SmartWatches] wmandel:
Avoid this watch like the plague!

I was once a happy Toq owner and thought the watch suceeded on all levels, but now i see i was wrong. The seams inside the watchband split open, spilling the wires and the guts of the unit out. Apparently Qualcomm is aware of the problem and is doing nothing to fix it. There are many many many people who are having the same problem. It seems Qualcomm doesnt seem to mind selling a watch with a known defect and then not informing the public, and continuing to sell them as if nothing is wrong. Shame on you Qualcomm!
[Other SmartWatches] Bladder61:
I had the same issue on one of my inside seams (side that leads down to the battery). I made sure everything was tucked in and used a little super glue gel to adhere the seam back together. I then ran a tiny bead of clear silicon over the seam to keep moisture out. Still working great after about a month. Your comments made me inspect my band closer. The seam on the other side is now totally separated, but not split open. Time for a little repair job tonight.

Not a great design. Would not expect this on a $350 watch. I picked mine up on ebay a few months back for $100, so it was not as painful for me. If your watch is still functioning try a self repair. Good Luck.
[Other SmartWatches] mhoepfin:
I'm surprised Qualcomm support didn't help you with this. I've interacted with them a few times via email and they have had a superfast response. My Toq has had none of these issues, maybe I'm a bit lighter on it than most.

---------- Post added at 03:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:54 PM ----------

Also just went to the Toq website and noticed there are no longer links to buy the Toq there.

Bought a toq.. now what?

HI,

I bought a toq.. sdk is released.. email notifications once they come in bulk cant read individual messages.. last update was on June and it was quite good.. but.. need more.. anyone working on this.. any dedicated apps for this?
[Other SmartWatches] spb37:
Mine died slow death, how reliable for others

Mine started randomly rebooting whenever I flexed my wrist a certain way. Bottom bottom stopped working and battery started draining superfast. Loved it for the months it worked. Qualcolm support super friendly and responsive. But I am wondetring how long their replacement watch (gave me rma) will last. Kicking myself for missing out on metawatch sale for backup. This type of device is invaluable for me in not missing texts or even phone calls.
[Other SmartWatches] mhoepfin:
HTC will be announcing their watch in a few weeks, and I hear it will use Mirasol.
[Other SmartWatches] Teejai80:
Where did you read that?
[Other SmartWatches] RD274:
I'm getting a Qualcomm Toq for $100 used. Is it worth it today? I mainly want a cool watch to check time, set alarms, control my music while driving to work, and ofcourse check whatsapp messages from time to time. Will it serve these basic purposes well enough?

Beyond that-

1) Are there any extra/downloadable apps that I can put on my watch like small games to kill time?

2) How are the watch face options and can I design my own?

3) How long does it take to charge. 0% to 100%?

4) I'm reading a lot of complaints above of the seams coming apart. Could someone post a pic to show bad it is so that I can see if thats a dealbreaker?

Thanks
[Other SmartWatches] RD274:
Bump. Anyone?
[Other SmartWatches] discomega:
1. No. Havent seen any

2. 10 with fw. No, not yet.

3. 3 hours to full but then it last for 6 days

4. No issue for me.

Toq project is dead

Hi guys just posting here notification, so anyone looking into Toq will know.

Qualcomm used Toq as a showcase of mirasol and some other technical solutions. There will be no new updates of SDK, or technical support, the project has been killed. All recent threads on Qualcomm forums have a message about it.

Well, if there is anyone who knows how to swap some other firmware on Toq or extend their SDK it would be great, i personally would love to be able to at least code my own watch faces or even change to 24 hours time mode instead of 12 hours one.

wow... thanks God I sold my toq from the first time I got it...

[Other SmartWatches] javispedro:
I have bought a used Toq to investigate the Mirasol screen and (as usual) to try to connect it from my desktop + Jolla phone without the official software.

So far I know how to push notifications, calls, messages, agenda, and new applets (lua/zip files). The "deck of cards"-type programs made with the official SDK are actually applets written in Lua, but the SDK autogenerates the Lua code for you.

Sadly I've found the Lua API to be extremely lacking (despite being an order of magnitude more complete than the "deck of cards" one). For example, I've not found how to e.g. receive tap event x,y coordinates so that I can implement, say, an image viewer with scrolling/panning. My idea was to make a "map" applet but it doesn't seem possible, or at least I haven't seen how by looking at the publicly available applications (ie notifications, deck-of-cards, timer, stopwatch).

Does anyone have any idea about the underlying C++ windowing API? Or whether getting tap coordinates can be get using Lua?

I know development is dead but...

Anyone have any clue about how to troubleshoot this watch? I got a used version on the cheap and actually I really like it but there is a bug in the call function that crashes the app on my Galaxy S7 Active.

There's very much no app development going on for this watch, so I guess I'd be willing to give a go on my own, but I don't know where to start, and figured this thread might lead me to some resources.

Thanks for your help in advance.

Been reading a lot of this - seems like this feature on the stock 4.2.2 build 243 is not there.

Is there a way to have the notifications such as sms, missed calls etc on the lockscreen itself. JB is supposed to have the notificaitons available from the pull down. But when the screen is locked, the pull down donesnt work either..

Any way of doign this without loading other apps like widget locker etc??

I dont know but I used Nils(there are better LS-widgets like this). Its a widget, you place on the lockscreen and see notifictions..

If it is possible without apps I would love to know it :D

Hello.

Just today, I have finally decided to update my nexus 4 to android 4.4. I downloaded the factory restore image from Google for 4.4 KRT16S, and installed it.

After reboot and setting up all my apps, I have noticed I'm not getting a data connection anymore. I was connected on 3G just fine a few minutes ago. What's going on?

If i open google chrome and try to go to a page, it says "Wifi and Mobile Data is turned off", however going into Settings -> Data Usage I see mobile data is turned on. I turn it off and back on again to no avail. I can see my phone number and make calls out just fine. I have tried toggling between 2G/3G. I have also tried checking the APN's and they are correct.

I'm lost. No matter what I do, going into Settings -> About Phone -> Status it is always showing "Mobile network state disconnected".

Is this a bug with 4.4, or what?

Edit: Fixed it! The problem was that in the shipped 4.4 rom from google, someone made a mistake with the APN's.

The default T-Mobile APN field was blank. I created one with the APN set to epc.t-mobile.com and immediately it started to work. The DASH is very important, as epc.tmobile.com does NOT work.

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ukdoc:
Anyone know how I can attach a Galaxy S4 mini to a Draytek 2820n router?

I'll give a bit of background that might explain why I'm trying to do what I'm doing.

I'm a heavy internet user. I need to download medical image files that are 300MB at a time on a frequent basis, as well as wanting to do usual downloading from iPlayer, Sky etc, plus app updates and all the usual keeping computers up to date. I live somewhere that I cannot get a decent ADSL connection (download speed is about 256Kb/s) never mind fibre. However, do have a good 3G (HSDPA) connection with three.co.uk. Have a Draytek 2820n router so I can use a 3G dongle via the router's USB so in essence the whole house has a fairly rapid internet connection. Only problem is that three's mobile broadband plans limit you to 15GB cap per month.

I've got a Galaxy S4 mini on monthly contract which gives unlimited (All You Can Eat) data and allows tethering.

I've been able to successfully connect wifi devices to the S4 via wifi tethering and use the internet but it's a pain having to switch wifi connections if say I want to control an XBMC server on my LAN, for instance. What would be ideal is to have the router distribute the S4's internet around. I can't just put the SIM in a mobile dongle as three have a way of blocking that (something to do with IMEI recognition) and I don't want to risk trying it.

Anyone got any ideas how I might be able to go about this. The Draytek router has various settings you can put into the 3G setup - I've attached a screenshot. I've tried various things but nothing works and I'm not sure how to access the router's debugging output. I set the S4 with USB debugging on in the developer settings. Wondering if there is something I can do that is fairly straightforward on the S4 so that I can try some generic dial string settings on the router to see if that works. I'd read something about putting the S4 into USB Kies mode but I don't seem to have that option.

My other thought was I might be able to leave the S4 in wifi tethering mode and somehow bridge this with my router but that would probably screw up my LAN DHCP assignments as I'd have to switch the router DHCP off and then I would be limited to 10 connections.

Sorry it's a bit long and complex. Any thoughts anyone?

Hello friends,

Since i updated to 4.3 i have a problem with my recent apps.

If i hold the home button my phone vibrates strong and goes just for a second into the recent apps then it jumps back to the homescreen.

I cant go for longer into the recent apps.

Tried reboot,dalvik and cache wipe but nothing helped.

Any help?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erikasnoske:
I think you need to do full reflash...

I mean HERE.

Go to recovery menu, wipe data and cache + dalvik cache. Pull out battery, put it back, turn your phone to DOWNLOAD mode.

use PIT from that link, use Odin (for me worked very well 3.09 version) and... I don't know, try. This method should work ;)

Ohh, and also, How I upgraded:

0. Am on 9505 model

1. I used pit file (re-partition)

2. used

Germany DBT (October 2013) (firmware with Enforcing SELinux. SECURED BOOTLOADER WILL BE FLASHED, NO DOWNGRADE)

PDA: I9505XXUEMJ5

CSC: I9505OXAEMJ5

MODEM: I9505XXUEMJ5

Version 4.3

3. Did what I said - wipe data, cache, dalvik cache... same method.

For me works, but I only see few text lines at every boot (but they don't change anything, I just ignore them. I added photo so you can preview ;)

Sorry i didn't understand your question...

This is what I did:

I wiped user data

I wiped cache

I wiped dalvik cache (under advanced)

and that's what i've done in recovery menu

P.s. I didn't give you instructions (even it looks like LIST) but it's not... Or do you need step-by-step instructions? Huh.. am too lazy but if you really need I can write, just tell me what ;)

an hour ago I was able to install Android 4.4 on my Nexus 4 via the automatic update.

The Phone turned off, the installation process started. There was a warning, telling me that something is wrong with the certification but I ignored it. After Android 4.4 was installed there was a warning, that I will loose root access. I choose "Fix it". Since then there is an animation on the screen with 4 points flying arround. I tried to restart the Phone, but the animation came up again.

Does somebody know whats wrong with my phone?

I've been in the community long enough and I wanted to eventually push a ROM out on XDA, but before I do that, i wanted to learn from some of the experts as to how i can do certain things on AOSP ROMs for customization. Like ie. Adding additional tabs/menus to the Settings, Clock/battery mod,etc.
