Is there any keyboard for the watch on android 4.4?

also any voice command app?
[Other SmartWatches] mghtymse007:
Flit keyboard is fully functional on KK4.4.

So far, voice command SW requires more resources than this watch can give.
[Other SmartWatches] pez123:
Thanks For that..

So no voice command works on the KK4.4? Do you know if any one is working on one?
[Other SmartWatches] mghtymse007:
No. Not that I know of. I really think that this particular watch, with it's single core cpu, won't be able to run apps that are resource heavy.
[Other SmartWatches] pez123:
But there was 1 that worked in china only or just in chinese, so it is possible. I dont see why it cant be done in english
[Other SmartWatches] mghtymse007:
I'm not saying it can't be done...I just don't think this watch will see it. Why develop for a mips single core when the majority of current and to be released devices are dual and quad+.

Frankly IMO, even with the specs of a Note 3, VCs have got a long way to go.

Oh and...have your seen that Asian app in action? I was not impressed.
[Other SmartWatches] pez123:
Well its still a good watch and if it had the ability to have voice command, then that would be a bonus.

I was just seeing if it had or could or if anyone was making one
[Other SmartWatches] pez123:
Do you know if you can change the boot animation on the smartq?
[Other SmartWatches] adanteny:
Yes, you can do that

There's a thread on another forum giving a cool bootanimations + update.zip
[Other SmartWatches] BassBlaster:
I don't see why voice command is not possible. I will be conducting my own tests after the watch arrives...ordered 2 weeks ago and STILL not here.
[Other SmartWatches] juggamonkey:
Voice dictation is possible I had it running by placing offline voice pack in the right folder with permissions ...Although very slow and unstable
[Other SmartWatches] adanteny:
Dunno if they were already listed as "functional on Z1", but here are a few apps I tested and good to go:

AmazonApps-release.apk

com.droidware.uninstallmaster.apk

com.graphilos.apkinst.apk

BetterBatteryStats_xdaedition_1.15.0.0.apk (directly from XDA)

com.geeksoft.screenshot.apk

BTW, I'm still searching for a working "Gallery" apk: GoogleGallery (recent versions) are not working (probably because of the "camera" part)
[Other SmartWatches] pez123:
Oh nice, whats the link to the thread?

Uninstall Apps

Sorry for the Noob Q, is there an easy way to un-install an app? I was experimenting with some apk files that did not work.
[Other SmartWatches] adanteny:
Obviously, the easiest way is to install an uninstaller apk first :)

Otherwise, personnaly, I'm using SnapPea software (same as AirDroid or many others) so I can link to my watch from my PC and install/deinstall any apk.

At last, you can rely on adb scripts (even with /system/app/)

BTW, which apps are u talking about?
[Other SmartWatches] thesparky007:
How are notifications from the phone handled on the watch? Does it show them on real time and go through the list?
[Other SmartWatches] mghtymse007:
Not sure what you're trying to ask by "real time"...but will try to answer.

When a notif comes in, and you have that app selected in the Z utility, both the phone and watch will issue an alert. The watch alert can happen simultaneously, but is more commonly within a few seconds of receiving the notification on the phone .

There is an app icon called "Notify". This will bring up the list of notifications in chronological order. And you choose when to clear this list. However, you cannot pick and choose what to delete...when you clear the list, the entire list is recycled.
[Other SmartWatches] BURROM:
Load ES File Explorer,

ES File Explorer works very well on the watch and you can use its features to install and uninstall apps as well as using it as a very good explorer. The Next browser works pretty good although I can't get it to play YouTube videos. The Fleksy keyboard is also good and you can use it for searching in the Next browser.
[Other SmartWatches] habibjamil:
Thanks for the tips. I was trying smooth calendar. I need a good calendar widget. The built-in one is difficult to read.

Thanks for the tips. I will give these apps a try.
[Other SmartWatches] habibjamil:
How did you enable USB debugging?

EDIT: Never mind, did a search and found it :)
[Other SmartWatches] adanteny:
Go to Parameters|About and then tap a few times (3?) on the Build Info or Model Info (I can't remember :S but it's hideen there)

You will be prompted about USB debugging anyway...
[Other SmartWatches] habibjamil:
Thanks, it was actually the model number.

Countdown/Timer App

Hi,

I just found a nice Countdown/Timer wich works on this tiny screen

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mta.countdown
[Other SmartWatches] Gluestick:
Is there a way to dial or call a number frombthe watch? Using an app or something?
[Other SmartWatches] mghtymse007:
Funny enuf, the only way to execute a call from the watch is thru the SMS app. Open previous text from person you want to call... and you'll see the option to dial number.
[Other SmartWatches] mghtymse007:
See above ^^^
[Other SmartWatches] Gluestick:
Ah... i find that way to be really unconvenient. Hope they will add a easier call feature in the future then.
[Other SmartWatches] Newu_boy:

Could i have the details for the FTP server i would like to try some of the apps out with me new watch. I've installed a new rom but might flash back and side load from these apps to gain a better experience with it.

Many Thanks

Mark
[Other SmartWatches] mghtymse007:
Got ur pm...been busy this morning...will send you info now.
[Other SmartWatches] Newu_boy:
THanks

Thanks for the information been playing with some of the apps watchfaces works better then expected. Will try and find some similar apps that will work with the z watch.

This is my tinker watch until me black steel comes then it will be my secondary. Looks like a whole more customisation can be done on this one tho.
[Other SmartWatches] v-angel:
yes you can!i bought the app called tablet talk.install tablet talk both devices and pair them.this app will install a dial pad at your watch witch is too small but near this there is a contact list.from there you can make a remote call to your phone.

[Other SmartWatches] BassBlaster:
Just search the app name and then .apk on google
[Other SmartWatches] mghtymse007:
You need to send me a PM. I don't want to post publicly. Thx
[Other SmartWatches] BlastTyrantKM:
I've searched for the answer and can't find it... How, exactly, do I get an app from my phone to my watch? I've tried transferring via bluetooth... I get .::failed, unsupported content format::.
[Other SmartWatches] dersie:
The simply way is to connect Z-Watch on your PC in USB. After copy the app "apk" on the watch. Disconnect from PC and install the apk with file explorer.
[Other SmartWatches] BlastTyrantKM:
Unfortunately, that's not working. Watch doesn't show up in file Explorer.
[Other SmartWatches] ofsinreno:
With Windows 7 it should. There are problems with Windows 8.x but I've used a Windows 7 machine for a while. You must remove the drivers completely and the reconnect the watch. Don't worry about USB debugging.
[Other SmartWatches] dersie:
I don't see the Z-Watch like a drive letter in explorer but only in "Computer" like Media Player
[Other SmartWatches] BlastTyrantKM:
Mine doesn't look like that. With my watch connected to pc, is listed as "Android tablet" and the driver says "ADB testing interface"

---------- Post added at 01:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:46 PM ----------

I performed that. Now it wouldn't even show that it's connected at all.

Finally...I got my pc to detect my watch. Thx to the few people who helped me out with that. However, a new problem has come up. I've transfered ES File Explorer and Flit keyboard apks to my watch but they won't install. I've enabled unknown sources and I get the prompt asking me if I want to install. But when I click "Next", nothing happens. I've rooted many phones & tablets ...but this smartwatch is making feel dumb LOL
[Other SmartWatches] ofsinreno:
Some apps require a lot of permissions that won't all show on the little screen and you have to hit next over and over until finally it says "install". Maybe you're not advancing far enough in the process.
[Other SmartWatches] BlastTyrantKM:
Thx... Didn't know that. ES File & Flit probably have tons of permissions

Edit--at least 100 clicks of the next button and I've gotten nowhere. Is 100 excessive?

2nd edit--I clicked next 2 more times for Flit and it installed. Apparently, 100 is NOT excessive LOL

Is it possible to install android wear on this or similar smartwatches?

Evernote on ZWatch

Evernote works fine on ZWatch.
[Other SmartWatches] MGREX:
I thought that with the SDK there was at least a beta out

Can it take voice to text?
[Other SmartWatches] dersie:
Evernote Audio note feature do not works, "fail to audio capture".

Voice to text need keyboard with voice feature but I have just "Flit keyboard" with no voice recognition.

The recorder app in ZWatch can record voice as audio file.
[Other SmartWatches] bLaDeMVP:

GTask (Google Task / Todo List) also works with SmartQ ZWatch

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.dayup.gtask

With GTask I can have my shopping list on my watch. "Out of The Milk" can send shopping List to GTask.

You can sync todo with watch/phone/web

I use also :

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.Free_WiFi_Timer13_3&hl=fr

to turn ON wifi just for 15 or 30min to sync all data with evernote/keep/google Task when I put the watch on charger at night (every day) and not keep wifi ON all time.

[Other SmartWatches] mghtymse007:
My ftp was taken down by a hacker that f'd with the permissions and screwed with the partitions. Until I have time to fix, it will remain down. In fact, be honest, not sure if I'm gonna put it back up after this BS!

If you haven't found anyone to get you the apk by next week...LMK...I'm going to attempt to extract the ftp files this weekend.

[Other SmartWatches] aarongillion63:
Anyone have Tasker working on this watch?

Thanks,
[Other SmartWatches] mghtymse007:
It does install and run. However, due to Smart's heavily scaled down version of android...I found Tasker to be fairly limited and stuck to basic tasks.
[Other SmartWatches] iAppleDev:
Yes it works but some of the faces don't function just images. Plus it's an separate app from are watch-launcher if you have some ideas or Color schemes let me know and I will include them in my app I'm building now

Going to try and add about 100 faces to the factory watch face app! So post your suggestions and feel free to send me images that you would like have:)
[Other SmartWatches] Nedyar:
A simple text face could be great, like pebble

[Other SmartWatches] iAppleDev:
Sure NP! in black&white? And the same or with date and PM/AM?
[Other SmartWatches] Nedyar:
Yes black&white is easy to read outdoors. Only the text like the example, but are you able to add a white weather icon at the down-right corner? Would be perfect but more work to you.

And would you like this one?http://img.giveawaycrew.com/lifesty...el_a03/a03-watchface-for-smartwatch2-logo.jpg
[Other SmartWatches] iAppleDev:
Weather icon is still in the works-ATM. But as soon as I figure it out, for sure. And I'm looking into adding other fonts soon 2, So the Sony dot matrix style would be easy.

Hi iAppleDev, would like to make a watchface with digital clock like sammy's and notification like batt, weather, date at bottom and user changable background like static background where you can select is it possible. What kind of image that you need and format? jpeg, png?

---------- Post added at 10:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:54 AM ----------

something like lock screen with digital clock and changeable wall paper would be nice.
[Other SmartWatches] ase69s:
Recomended alternative so you dont go crazy installing apps with lots of permisions:

You can scroll the permisions swiping up with the finger, the thing is that you have to start the swipping touch in the middle height of the screen aproximatelly (where a little part of the text of the permissions needed is shown). At first is a little hard to get it right but with practice it gets easy ;)

Apps Test please

Now that I received my refund from Omate I thinking on getting the smartq Z. The only thing that is still stopping me is the mips processor and the compatible apps. Since in Omate almost all apps worked. If anyone have time to test this apps please I will be very gratefull so I can order one. Thanks in advance.

so how is this watch doing today?

i still kind of like it (dont own it)

i still dont feel like spending 100€ on something that is more a toy than somethign usefull

The most essential application

I just found the essential application for the SmartQ Z-Watch.

With is resolution screen 240x240 there are many app that can be usable because some button are outside the watch screen. If view is not scroolable you can not access at this buttons Ex PlayStore you can not access at the "Accept" button to install app. On my StopWatch&Timer+ I can not setup Timer because the Save button is outside screen.

With this app NOMone Resolution Changer you can setup your screen on 320x320 (or even 480x480) to access at hiden screen part in 240x240. You can just change resolution time to setup app and go back original resolution after.

Usable with custom ROM with root access like DJDroid or other.

I am perfectly fine with the default notification app, except not being able to read the messages from Whatsapp. I don't like swapp link, as I have to keep it always opened, to work, plus I think it drains the batter, no working through bluetoothLE.

[General Questions and Answers] countryboy318:
if i install twrp on my unrooted sm-t210r and do a nand backup, can i take that back up and flash it on another sm-t210r? or are they only for the device you backed it up for? does it back up serail #'s and stuff like that or are they generic like a rom?
[General Questions and Answers] shimp208:
You can transfer NANDROID backups to same model devices and flash them just fine. They a snapshot of your device so not as generic as a ROM (Think of it almost like a personal ROM) but they don't backup serial number and things like that, which allowes you to flash the backups on identical model devices.
[General Questions and Answers] countryboy318:
thanks thats great!

any problems with only installing twrp and not rooting? would twrp void warranty?
[General Questions and Answers] shimp208:
Does your device have fastboot mode? What you can do if it does is boot into the bootloader and then run the fastboot command:

fastboot boot <name-of-your-recovery>.img

This will allow you to temporarily boot TWRP make a backup (You can then transfer that to a computer and then transfer it to your other device) without permanently flashing it to the device (Keeping your warranty intact). Overall if you try what I suggested you should have no problems only installing TWRP and not rooting also.

Exact same issue, at first i couldn't get to bootloader, but after a couple attempts, you should be able to get to it...

it's the fastest, best and most reliable way.

You have no one to blame for this but yourself. it's your fault your phone is screwed up and your fault you don't have a backup.

After running that RUU if you don't screw with anything and don't load a custom recovery you will be able to get future OTA updates.

I've done the OTA so far on 3 One's that I had previously converted using the 4.3 conversion RUU. none of them failed catastrophically. I had to uninstall Xposed; and mine had a custom build.prop but those were minor hiccups that were easily fixed. I'll be doing the OTA on a 4th one later today so I guess we'll see if my luck holds up..
