[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BruceHsiang:
When I open up superSU, it says:

There is no SU binary installed, and super SU cannot install it.

If you just upgraded to android 4.3, you need to manually re-root.

If I turn the Nexus on in recovery mode, it still says it's unlocked.

So at this point, is there anything I can do to restore root status without factory resetting? I made a backup with titanium backup but it was a while ago so I would rather not use it if there is another way.

I've read somewhere that rooting it should mean OTA updates should no longer work but somehow, it still went through and I updated it without thinking too much.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muyoso:
Download the supersu zip file and flash it in recovery.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BruceHsiang:
This will throw me back into rooted mode while keeping my phone as is?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xBeerdroiDx:
this will update the binaries and restore root. no data will be lost or formatted. simply flash the zip in twrp or cwm.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BruceHsiang:
I don't have twrp or cwm installed yet. Which one is generally simpler/easier to install/use?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BruceHsiang:
So I installed goomanager and tried to install twrp, but it all goes back to the same problem which was that I am now not in root mode anymore.

Also what do you mean by flashing the zip? Which options am I supposed to use?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wantabe:
I've been using TWRP with no problem and it's been awhile since I've used CWM. I've never used a toolkit or flashify but with adb it would probably take a couple minutes max to flash either one.

---------- Post added at 10:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:46 PM ----------

Choose "Install" in recovery, with either TWRP or CWM is flashing the zip.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BruceHsiang:
Problem is, I didn't install twrp when I had root access before, and now when I try to use it, it says I need root to use it.

Can I flash the zip using adb in the fastboot recovery menu?

What should I do from here?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wantabe:
Sorry I've never done that. I guess you could adb push superuser.apk to the system but you still need the binary wherever that goes. Honestly I would just flash TWRP using adb and use TWRP to flash the SuperSu zip.

---------- Post added at 11:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:10 PM ----------

Do you have adb already working?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BruceHsiang:
Not yet, I just saw it as an option while reading around.

How would I install twrp with that image file?

All tutorials I've found said I needed root to install it in the first place.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wantabe:
No.You do not need root to install a custom recovery. You need an unlocked bootloader. How did you get root in the first place? You must have used a toolkit of some kind? Use it again? I've only every used adb so I can't help with any toolkits but lots of people use them, I guess! ;)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] housry23:
Download the latest TWRP or CWM recovery. Put it in the same folder as your adb and fastboot files. Open a command prompt and type adb reboot bootloader(you have to make sure developer settings are enabled and USB debugging is checked). Then flash recovery using fastboot by typing fastboot flash recovery name_of_file.img and then you can flash the supersu zip file.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wantabe:
Exactly! I'm thinking he doesn't have adb setup yet.

---------- Post added at 11:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:28 PM ----------

This is a pretty decent video on how to setup adb, not the newest video out there probably but it should work!

Hi all,

Been looking around to see if there are sites for replacement accents, but I haven't found any. I did come across some on eBay; I was wondering has anyone encountered any site that sells the accents.

Personally, I would like to mix and match the colors (like metallic blue buttons with red camera frame accents and etc); also paint my own haha. Also, I might just get bored of the color that I decided at first and want to change. Anybody have that kind of feeling?
[Moto X Accessories] CuedUp:
I've been trying to keep an eye out every week or so for replacement accents, but no luck so far. I ordered a replacement back from ebay that arrived quickly and seems OEM, so that's tiding me over until I find replacement accents! I picked black front/metallic orange, so it offers some fun combos for new back colors, at least.

Before anyone asks, yes, it can run ingress. But due to the display size, it's not usable.

(although, having ingress installed means I get notifications, which is a bonus)
[General Accessories] MO3iusONE:
I want this watch bad. Will be my next smart watch for sure
[General Accessories] Molter:
How does Ingress deal with multiple devices?

Pretty nice review, now I'm waiting for my November Developer Edition 1GB/8GB very anxiously. How was the flashing process? Did yours come rooted or non-rooted? :laugh:
[General Accessories] bouaroudj:
dust ?

From the pictures, a lot of dust seems to be stuck on the watch?
[General Accessories] Srwilliams:
Yes I too was wondering about the same thing. I did not believe it to be dust but simply the unpolished look of the watch. I am hoping it is dust and I am wrong because from the pictures the watch does not look like a polished quality finish
[General Accessories] vectron:
The watch has glass screen - fingerprints will be noticeable, metal case - that one is solid, and cheap silicone/rubber wristband - sort of a dust magnet, no way around it since it's not replaceable. The value of TS is not in a rubber wristband, but in the watch itself :D
[General Accessories] Srwilliams:
Vectron:

I can understand and appreciate your response.

By the way I want to go out my way to express to you my sincere appreciation of you making sure you addressed the speakerphone matter that I had raised in earlier posts. You are the first and only one who has addressed the issue and let us know that the speakerphone is plenty loud enough for calls, something I decried about the Samsung Galaxy Gear.

By the way that was the best user review I have seen on a phone or watch phone. Everyone ghets into all of these specifications and technical matters and forget to cover the basics like "how does the watch feel, look---is it too large---is the screen really visible---If I make a call can I hear the other person and vice versa---all of these nonthechnical matters that go into an everyday user experience (and not from a developers or customizer's perspective) you attempted to cover and quite well I might add.

I can't wait for you to be able to report on the companion, bluetooth tethering capabilities of the watch if that ever comes to be. But for all of us nontechies your review and evaluation has been heaven sent
[General Accessories] Lokifish Marz:
Reviews like his take a lot of load off the developers and is very much appreciated. Doesn't mean there won't a developer review but in this case his review definitely give us some breathing room and time to actually use the TS vs fixing things. For example, I still have yet to actually play with mine yet and I've had it over a week now.
[General Accessories] vectron:
Thank you all for the kind words! As you have seen from my Index Review page on XDA: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2192333 I take every review very seriously, either if its $5 screen protector or $15 case or $200 smartwatch or $500 headphones. I actually started doing these reviews with a main intent to answer questions left open by all those other "pro" dry reviews on specialized websites where they list spec, summarize their opinion in one paragraph and post a bunch of picture that still doesn't provide a clear "picture" of the product. I also hated user reviews posted in the forum with low res picture shots from a phone in poor lighting. But anyway...

TS shaping up to be a great product with unlimited capabilities. For those interested to start testing Companion app, make sure to check Kurt's G+ page with instructions (the references were provide in the latest KS update), and for those who already have the watch - YOU MUST flash it with Loki's latest ROM. It's not even a matter of question.
[General Accessories] Srwilliams:
Heh Vec:

Does your above post indicate that there is a Companion app or tool that is now available, but being tested and refined. If so that is great news and puts me in the position of making my purchase

Excelent review, I can't wait more for mine.

[General Accessories] Enlightenment79:
Hello vectron,

Thanks for your good and detailed review. :)

I am currently using a MetaWatch Frame. I tried also Sony SmartWatch 2, but the vibration motor was too loud, so I returned it. All people around me would have heard every mail or SMS I got with this loud vibration.

The vibration of the MetaWatch is discreet, like it should be.

I saw in your reviews, that you tested a MetaWatch Frame.

1. Is the vibration of the Omate TrueSmart loud or discreet?

2. Is the vibration on the Omate TS louder than the MetaWatch Frame? How is the vibration of the TS compared with the MetaWatch Frame?

3. Did you also try the Sony SmartWatch 2? If yes, how is the vibration loudness of the TS compared with the Sony Smartwatch?
[General Accessories] vectron:
Good questions. As you have seen, I been working with MetaWatch for awhile and have//reviewed their STRATA/FRAME models - the main purpose is to receive email notifications and not to miss calls. The vibration is just perfect with MW. I can't comment on SW2. I'm on the list of Sony accessory reviewers and have talked to their PR firm about review sample. Unfortunately, they are delaying sending review products, and I have a feeling it has something to do with a lot of recent posts about quality control (people have screen popping off, problem with buttons, etc).

For me personally, Notification feature is #1 requirement for TS. But it's still in alpha testing and I wasn't able to get it to work yet, possible due to some setup issues. Trust me, as soon as I have a more stable release version and can get it to work on my TS - I will post a detailed review.

Another great thing Kurt is working on is OWatchOn app which turns the display on when you raise your arm. It's work in progress as well, and Kurt is fine tuning it. So far you need a specific angle/position to turn the display on, but he will add more options where you can customize it.

[General Accessories] Bulgarien:
Car "Vax instead of dust...

Bad quality, simple as that, but strange becouse everything else seems to be really perfect!

A easy solution to solve the problem is to fil up the gab (not on the hole screen) with car "wax" (clear "glass" coating). I will defently do that as the first thing after receiving TrueMate after seeing these ultrasharp pictures.Its nearly impossible to remove the dust when its first are in the gab..

Thanks for great review and pictures - they was needed! Now we just have to wait...
[General Accessories] TheNr24:
You're talking about filling up the gap around the screen right?

Now that you mention it, it really can't ignore it.

Could you detail the car wax thing? Have you done it before?

Are there alternatives for the wax?
[General Accessories] Enlightenment79:
For me Notification feature is #1 requirement for a smartwatch, too. Thanks for keeping us up to date.

Turning on the smartwatch with a gesture is also one of the most important features. I had interest in the Neptune Pine, but I decided against it, because the support stated that this feature is not important to them in timeline (Quote: "At the moment we are not, we will likely do it in the future, but we aren't implementing it at the moment.") So I appreciate Kurts app. :)

I decided for Omate TS as I saw the videos posted from the hackathon showing this gesture feature.
[General Accessories] Bulgarien:
Yes I will filling the gab straight ahead. If your car get scratches or just needet to be shined up we use "modern" wax to coat and protect it.. Its clear and getting very hard. The water cant stay at it!DONT use old wax.! Its callede liquid glass, filler or something. Its NOT the same as the old colored wax.

Hopefully will Omate fix the problem in the next generations, you know these watches is the first from the line and many things still have to be changed
[General Accessories] vectron:
As a quick update, OwatchOn app from Kurt definitely works! With a watch off, you turn you wrist to 45deg angle inwards and 2sec later it turns on. It's not instantaneous to prevent accidental turn on when you are waiving your hands, and also with a display off system checks gyroscope position once every 2.5sec for an update. You also have an option to hard shake to wake it up.

With companion app, it also works but there is a bluetooth switch issue Kurt is working on resolution now. The app is still in alpha/beta so it's expected. For now, I have to reset bt after every notification, but it should be resolved soon!
[General Accessories] Enlightenment79:
Thanks for the update. Sounds good. :)
[General Accessories] BeRniTo:

[General Accessories] vectron:

[General Accessories] BBowermaster:
Because they said during the campaign that the watch was waterproof, but are now saying its not guaranteed if you open it up, which is required to install SIM card/SD card.
[General Accessories] Lokifish Marz:
"waterproof" really hate it when marketing folks use that word. Only the SDCard requires you remove the back. The SIM has it's own door.
[General Accessories] diestarbucks:
Did a touch of cleaning. Let's please keep things civil and respectful everyone. :good:
[General Accessories] vectron:
I'm still waiting to receive the latest notification app, but doesn't mean it stopped me from using TrueSmart smartwatch. One thing that was bothering me is a lack of Back button. You have 2 physical buttons, upper "power" and lower "home". For "back" functionality you just swipe right->left. It does work, but in some cases you have a slider switch on the page that triggers a toggle instead of going back to a previous page. Considering I'm rooted with Loki's ROM, I found a perfect workaround by using free Pie Control app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jun.ace.piecontrol).

Pie Control is one of my favorite "short cut" apps on Note 2, but for 1.54" screen you need to scale it down to a single level and probably no more than 3 shortcuts instead of max 5. But the beauty of the available controls is that you can select Tools with "Back" button being one of the choices. In this example below I have right side of the screen selected for activation and 3 shortcut buttons of "back", "google play", and "settings". Now, from any screen I just touch the right edge of the display to get Back button or go to Play store or Menu. You can also assign short and long press to the same button, so even with this minimalistic approach you can have 6 shortcuts shared between 3 pie buttons.

I also just thought assigning Home button to long press of that Back button makes sense, and it will save you extra clicks on a physical button.

[General Accessories] opasha:
Hey, Alex, how are you, my friend? So, my Omate came a few days ago finally after ordering it on 10/17/13. Took a little over 7 months. Now, it seems like an obsolete device. My pebble has been running great, esp with the 2.0 firmware. I haven't opened the packaging for the Omate because I was thinking it might be better to send it back for a refund. However, I'm not sure. They said some company called ROCKI has their funds. I was told to send it to this address in China for a refund:

Omate After Sales – Cammy Yip +852 3666-9964 Unit 501,5/F, KAM HAN INDUSTRIAL BUILDING, 8 WANG KWUN ROAD, KOWLOON BAY, HONG KONG

Do you think it's worth keeping or sending back? I know Loki got frustrated with Omate (as he was completely justified in doing so), and left development completely a few months ago. I have the Omate TrueSmart Smartwatch 2.0 | Extreme 1GB / 8GB costing me $299. When the Moto360 comes out, I am definitely going to buy that. I bought the Samsung Gear 2 for my father to test out, and he didn't really like it that much, so I ended up sending that back after playing around with it for 30 days. There's only one ROM that seems to have SOME development still going on and it's Dees_Troy's Bluetooth Tether Rom located here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2697984.

I'd really appreciate your input since you have done a lot in terms of every day use, so I'm sure you know whether or not it's worth keeping. I definitely want it to be a companion to my Note 3. The only good thing I really like about it is the color screen, the ability to send/receive texts, full emails, etc. If I use the bluetooth rom, will it truly be worth it and benefit me? I don't mind charging each day. Let me know, and I'd really appreciate any tips/tricks/guidance on how to go about rooting/what rom to use etc in your opinion. Thank you, buddy!

Was able to cop mine off of Craigslist seeing as how it was difficult to get from the Kickstarter program. (Actually, sold to me from a Google employee) The device has it's negatives but I can't say enough good about the Omate Truesmart. It's a shame Omate didn't go hard on promotion and production to see this through because @ some point the big guys like Samsung and Sony and Apple are going to have a 'smartphone-on-a-wrist' device selling like hotcakes and Omate will have missed the boat. I like mine and I use it every day (daily charging sucks). Would love a better companion app, tho. The 1GB/8GB is worth getting if you see it for a decent price on eBay or CL.

Interesting... Guy on Craigslist is selling it for $300. I told him $70 he refused!

Sent from my SGNote 3
[General Accessories] trent999:
My opinion is just based on having had mine since early February. I donated less than $250 total for mine to fund the Kickstarter project and what I received only very vaguely and partially resembled what Omate promised. Don't get it wet, for example...

Anyway, if you really want a TrueSmart you can buy a clone called the Z2 I think, that will meet or exceed the quality of the TrueSmart x201 device for about $150. Still a bit high, in my opinion, but closer to the device's real worth. There is a thread here about the Z2 somewhere.

Owners are getting rather desperate to recover some of their losses on this device.
[General Accessories] kuronosan:
I can assure you that if the next TS ever sees the light of day it will definitely kill this one.
