smart connect latest version hack

just installed latest sw2 host app hack apk just wondering if you are doing a latest hacked version of the smart connect app so i can use it on a non rooted xperia z2 dont wan to root it yet only just got the phone

thanks
[Sony Smartwatch] wayneza:
I had the same problem. Ended up rooting my phone (was very easy) because I couldn't remove SmartConnect as it was a system app. But with that, rooting has opened up a few extra possibilities. Using tasker, my phone disables my pattern lock when my SW2 is connected, as I go out of range it re-enables the pattern lock. Dont think I can live without the root now :D
[Sony Smartwatch] evileyes:
Hi everyone.

I just rooted my z2 for this hack but don't know how to remove the smart connect and install the mod one.....

need help please..... thanks in advance.
[Sony Smartwatch] Teejai80:
If you have it up the top bar just hold down the icon until app info appears. Go into that and delete, otherwise go into apps and find it in downloaded.
[Sony Smartwatch] evileyes:
Sorry for the confusion. Actually i'm trying to remove the build-in smart connect in the sony Z2, where it cannot be found in the "downloaded" folder.... SW2 showing different certificate causing the custom setting wont run..... sorry for my poor english....
[Sony Smartwatch] CBpbxEcmecmBeH:
Since you've rooted your Z2 try browsing to /root/system/app or /root/system/priv-app/ with a "competent" file explorer (i use Xplore) and rename/delete the original one
[Sony Smartwatch] evileyes:
Thanks alot ! Which name I should search? Ive checked both app and priv_app folder but cant find anything similar ......
[Sony Smartwatch] CBpbxEcmecmBeH:
I'm sorry i don't have Z2 so I don't know what is installed... Can you screenshot the folders?
[Sony Smartwatch] evileyes:
I finally figure out, the liveware have to be removed.

Ive finally installed the modded smart connect and host program, but why it keep saying that the host apps need to be updated in case to connect the phone ?

Wow, that opens up so many possibilities: having multiple watchfaces with different widgets, then tapping a space on the screen to switch between them.

Of course swiping to switch would be the ultimate.....

[Sony Smartwatch] dastX:
hm I tried to set the watchface with Llama (its similar to Tasker), but nothing changed. do I miss something? I did it like written here --> http://s476905316.websitehome.co.uk/blog/?p=612 . The extra-row looks like

Hi,

thank you very much for the update!

by the way the multi watchface doesn't work for me..

if I go to the multi watchface app settings, there is nothing inside, here's a screenshot:

[Sony Smartwatch] nic85:
oh, ok thanks anyway.

do you think he will update it too?
[Sony Smartwatch] manu0466:
I don't know..
[Sony Smartwatch] manu0466:
Have you update to v3?
[Sony Smartwatch] kimagure:
I should be able to add the 17x5 grid to the module (maybe with a configuration screen to make it optional).

But the other v0.2/v0.3 features (change watchface through intent and multi watchfaces extension support) require adding new code not present in Sony's original app. I'm not sure that this is doable with Xposed, and it's currently above my Android development skills.

I'll try to publish the source code of the module on GitHub if more skilled developers can have a look at it.

[Sony Smartwatch] AlexOB1:
Fantastic

Absolutely amazing Manu!

I can't believe how well switching between watchfaces works and how much your work has transformed the watch. I assumed switching watchface would take a significant time, but it's almost instant which is brilliant.

I now have a main watchface, including notifications and weather forecast, then two separate windows, one with music controls and one with an app grid, created using "WatchFace Widgets by NeFa" and "Remote Widget". Largely makes up for the default UI of the Smartwatch 2 being so basic and non-configurable. I wonder if Smartwatch 3 next week will have a UI that beats this!

Superbly brilliant. If only Sony would enable side swipes in their watchface SDK, things would be perfect. Has this been much work to figure out? Well deserved donation on its way to you (by the way, I suggest you change your PayPal donation link to English rather than Italian).

Development proposal: can you think of a way to have the watchface automatically switch back to centre, after the backlight times out? This would enable switching to a secondary face, without loosing the core glanceable watchface.
[Sony Smartwatch] manu0466:
I'm glad you like it :) if it exists it is also about your idea :good:

I have also added a donate button for the US i hope it works now.

I will take a closer look to sony sdk and i see what i can do.
[Sony Smartwatch] AlexOB1:
I'd add the donate link to your signature if I were you....

The USA and Europe PayPal links both include /it/ in the address, so both show as Italian language. My suggestion wasn't that you change the currency, but that you change the page language. Everybody on XDA understands english, fewer understand Italian.
[Sony Smartwatch] manu0466:
Fixed now the donate page is in English :good:
[Sony Smartwatch] enigma_x:
Never worked... alwasy got this from donate link

[Sony Smartwatch] ehmjay:
is there any way we can make the seconds hand work on screen off?
[Sony Smartwatch] AnceKaiser:
I think so, but the watchface should be built using the Active Low Power mode from the sony sdk, which keeps the screen active for touches, and the content keeps being continuously updated, turning the backlight off though (going grayscale)

runtastic uses this mode

see here for more infos
[Sony Smartwatch] Megatastic:

[Sony Smartwatch] dastX:
little bugreport: on my watch and on the editor the widgets seems to align not in the middle but a bit too much on the right side (the space on the left side is a bit bigger than on the right side). unfortunately its now a problem when I have the nice possibility to fine-tune the place of the widgets with the better grid.
[Sony Smartwatch] tietto12719:
Is normal :good:
[Sony Smartwatch] dastX:
but maybe he can change the new grid a bit into the left direction ;) ok ok, its only fine-tuning and i don't know if it's possible...
[Sony Smartwatch] Alahdal:
I've tried the first version and left it when the Xposed one was introduced. However, when I check today I found that my watch has been lifted to another level. Many thanks.

[Sony Smartwatch] dabizstan:
I think the problem is that he used a grid not multiple of the original one. If the original one is 5x4, the modified should be 15x8 for example
[Sony Smartwatch] umair shaikh:
Am unable to use that multi watch face...i saved 3 watchface but when i try to swipe or touch on current face nothing happens...

Can any 1 guide me ?? Plzzzz....
[Sony Smartwatch] AlexOB1:
You need to add the (transparent) widgets called 'left side' and 'right side' to your watchfaces. Then tap the appropriate part of your watchface to switch.

bluetooth headset sbh50 issues

Ok i need more details,please can you tell me how this device comunicate white the phone? there is an host app like the sw2? and if yes this app need SmartConnect to work?
[Sony Smartwatch] scagn95:
Hello manu,

my device is Samsung Galaxy S3 stock rom 4.1.2 rooted.

The app for the headset is "stereo bluetooth headset sbh50" and appears on the list of devices on "smart connect".

Thanks so much. :)
[Sony Smartwatch] Nomad1600:
I had to do a clean wipe of my phone and lost this hack. Does the OP have the most up-to-date version and instructions? I haven't tried the multi-face hack... How well does that work? Thanks!!
[Sony Smartwatch] CBpbxEcmecmBeH:
it works pretty well :)
[Sony Smartwatch] tusko5:
Excuse me, how did you add the remote widget as a watchface?
[Sony Smartwatch] AlexOB1:
I used 'watchface widgets by nefa' to create icons on a watchface, linking directly to remote widget pages.

Unfortunately I've had to stop using this functionality though, I found the multiple watchfaces just don't work well now for some reason. I find few widgets are actually clickable from the watchface, which is a complete pain. Even though it worked perfectly initially!

Has anybody else found this? Or is clicking on a widget performing the correct action for anybody reliably?
[Sony Smartwatch] tusko5:
I also found this problem. Sometimes the widgets in the watchface do not get the tap. I uninstalled the multi watchface extension and although the problem is still there, it is a lot less common.
[Sony Smartwatch] mety333:
Hi this is Great! But can you mod the smart connect apk with a newer version? Because on the Xperia Z3 you cant removed it and its a newer version than your apk so it cannot be installed.

Attached pic with stock version compared to yours.

Thanks in advance alot!
[Sony Smartwatch] el_venga:

Is anyone else using the modified apps on Android 5? I just upgraded my nexus 4 to this, and now my smartwatch 2 is in a constant state of connecting and disconnecting.
[Sony Smartwatch] Pepousek67:
Yes I use SW2v4 + Android 5.0 SONY Z yuga, and everything is fine!
[Sony Smartwatch] Megatastic:
Yeah, I isolated the problem to a single widget that was causing the watch to malfunction after the upgrade.... Weird
[Sony Smartwatch] porio:
Please can you tell us which widget was it? It's good to know the possible causes of disconnections.
[Sony Smartwatch] leaderone_L1:
Yes, please tell (I hope is not the HD widgets App, I depend on it).

I also find out that running Real Racing 3 (last version 2.7) does a weird interference with the bluetooth connection, making the SW2 vibrate constantly for continuous disconnections. I disabled the vibration for connectivity notifications and I turn off the bluetooth before playing.

[Sony Smartwatch] JarlSX:
if you're using custom watch faces and/or custom date widgets, and you don't have the update yet, DON'T update if it does come in

the latest firmware update breaks custom watch faces

to the topicstarter: i assume you have a copy of the previous SW2 app?

i wonder what happens if you install that one?

would it downgrade the watch?
[Sony Smartwatch] dersie:
As soon as you install a new app version it update the watch.

As soon as the watch is updated you can not use a previous version of the smartwatch app.

for the background in watchface I think it is not possible... But it'll check the code :)
[Sony Smartwatch] tusko5:
Sorry for the offtopic, it will be possible to have a watchface text widget whose contents could be updated by tasker? That would be a killer feature (for me, at least).
[Sony Smartwatch] AlexOB1:
Yeah, that would be great. Probably not too hard either for somebody with a few hours available.
[Sony Smartwatch] manu0466:
Sure, please can you write more details about this widget?
[Sony Smartwatch] tusko5:
Well, thanks, I'm not sure about what details you need.

I suppose that it will be more useful if there are various sizes of the widget to let each user mix this widget with others.

The goal should be that through a tasker action or in a variable that it is monitored one could place any text (ASCII,UTF8?) in the widget.

That, for me, could be superuseful (and supernerdy, also). Given tasker connectivity any system information could be placed there. E.g., summary of last missed calls, or the names of the persons/groups that tried to contact you via SMS/Whatsapp/etc. It would be even possible to program your own customized notification engine.

People is doing that right now with Android Text Widgets and the app (sorry, I do not rembember the name) that lets you see a phone widget from the watch. But this will be more integrated and consume less battery.

Thank you very much for your interest. Of course, I'll donate for this feature.
[Sony Smartwatch] Alahdal:
Excellent, recently I started contacting the developer of Watchface Widgets who regrets that is not possible because his focus on the Android wear.

Hello, I use version 0.5.2 (Nexus 5, OTA 5.0.1) and always after a few days of use, I begin to watch over and over again to disconnect and connect. When I do restart your phone and watch me sort applications by alphabet even though I had set a custom sort.
[Sony Smartwatch] kokesh:
Here is how to replace the original with this modded version without loosing

ANY

extensions/settings

In short: backup apps+data in Titanium, install modded versions, restore data in TB, reset the watch, unpair, pair again, start Smartconnect, re-add watch widgets. Done

More detailed:

Download Titanium backup (needs root)

Backup app+data for Smart connect and Smartwatch 2 app

Uninstall Smart connect and Smartwatch

Install APKs from OP

start Titanium and restore "Data only" for Smart connect and Smartwatch 2 apps

on the watch: go to settings and select Reset watch

in the phone, unpair watch in Bluetooth settings

Pair it again

start smartconnect/Smartwatch2 app

Note:

* user-installed widgets, placed in watchfaces will seemingly be there, but you will need to re-add them.

* give the watch some time to install extensions/wallpapers/settings from the phone

Seems to work fine! Finally I can ignore those idiotic big margins in the Distance widget for example!:D

Tasker - Smart Notifier is very useful but... it is not exactly what I want.

I'll try to explain. We need just a widget or watchface that shows us any information from Tasker without any(vibration of the watch) something like canvas for pebblewatch.

I can send any information to watch.

we need a widget that will show any information from tasker
