...by 'proper', I mean 'standalone'!

Basically the same as my old Vapirius AX (similar to Rock/Z1) that I've used daily for 2 years, but much cheaper and runs Android 4.1 and it has 320x240 2'' screen and not the square 240x240 1.5'' style of most watches which I can't get on with.

I'm going to order it and check it out. .

Nothing to lose at that price!

Wearable Smart Phone Watch AN1 2.0" Touch Screen Android 4.1.1 w/ Camera / Wi-Fi - White + Silver - Free Shipping - DealExtreme
[Other SmartWatches] ratmkicksass:
Looks like the Neptune Pine...
[Other SmartWatches] marcusroberts:
Thanks for the review.

Also been using the AN1 for a couple of weeks and fairly impressed, but then I've been wearing a similar one for a couple of years and have only that and a conventional phone to compare it with.

Confused what you say about the battery; my AN1 has a battery on the back that can be detached and changed by pressing a small recessed lug/clip. The battery is the same as the old Z1/Rock/Vapirius so is readily available. Are you sure your battery is non-removable?

Also, as it's rooted - although Superuser is not installed - all current Play Store and Google services, sync adapters etc can be side loaded into system/apps, changing permissions the usual way. I am running all the latest Google App stuff now, but you're right about the Chinese Market and I removed it immediately along with anything Baidu related.

My only mild criticism of the watch (I can live with the floppy USB port cover as most mobile phones have no cover whatsoever) is the screen, not the digitizer which as you point out is responsive and works well, but the outside screen. It's scratched badly already and cleaning it makes it even worse. It's almost like a bad plastic. My other smartwatch has been used every day for two years and the screen still looks brand new without protection.

Lesson is get a good screen protector BEFORE even touching it! Although is fairness, the scratches don't really show when the screen is powered.

The sound can be tweaked in the engineering settings (I've forgotten the number/symbol sequence to access those settings right now) and I have managed to get it sufficiently loud to annoy other people listening to a phone conversation.

** More importantly, can you use Play Store? Anyone? **
[Other SmartWatches] marcusroberts:
This isn't a Play Store compatible device. Also, looking at the pictures, the apps are proprietary.

Some Android devices, especially Chinese ones that I've used, Google Services aren't installed and have been done so manually in order to get all the Android features.

This isn't one of them.

with the z1 i used gapps install zip and gapps copy zip.You guys that have the AN1 do you have these for this watch or can you point me to the place to get them.
[Other SmartWatches] marcusroberts:
Details on how to load all the Google stuff onto the AN1 and most other similar Chinese devices are here (reply#7):

http://linuxslate.com/cgi-bin/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1399895851

These are the steps:

Here are my instructions for putting all the correct Google Play stuff and thereby having a full non-Chinese Android. Remember to totally uninstall all the Chinese Market and Baidu.

Download the files from here:

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/56ppcal1t9dwm6g/AACubjVgwQIcFjVv0_wvo05na

1. Use Root Explorer

2. Copy GoogleServicesFramework.apk, GoogleLoginService.apk and Google_Play-v3.8.17.apk to the system/app folder on your phone with Root Explorer.

3. In Root Explorer click Mount R/W. Change the permissions of the 3 files to match the permissions of the other files in the folder rw-r--r-- (6-4-4). Then click Mount R/O and exit Root Explorer.

4. Install GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter and GoogleContactsSyncAdapter the usual app way.

5. Reboot your phone. Hard reset is not necessary.

6. Go to Accounts & Sync in your phone's settings, click Add account and enter your Google/GMail account details.

7. Go to your apps and Launch Google Play.

8. Update any Google stuff from Play Store if prompted.

I'll do a vid of this sometime.

Good luck!

AN1 Battery Clarification

Hey, Marcus -

Sorry to take so long to reply.

When I said the AN1 battery was non-removable, I meant that the back of the AN1 watch IS the battery, for all intents and purposes, and is the battery housing, not a mini-case into which a battery could fit. Yes, as you say, it's removable via the lug-clip and that gives you access to the card slots. But I didn't know one could buy a replacement; the lug-clip architecture is so specific to the watch build that I thought an AN1 battery replacement would have to be sold as a locked-to-the-model accessory. (Well, until today; trolling around eBay I saw a Z1 battery/back panel replacement for sale and kind of assumed it would fit the AN1. But it was $39 which struck me as high, so I didn't purchase. I'll do a broader search for Z1 replacements now, though. If you know of where they can be gotten cheaply, chime in.) :D
[Other SmartWatches] Pelaphus:
No Real Need for Rooting

By the way ...

Even though the AN1 isn't Play Store compatible, I've been able to load everything on it that I need. I either find direct links to download the APKs desired, or APK store links that bring me to the APK. In any event, sideloading from my computer is easy, then I just use File Manager to open the apps. If the apps don't work, I uninstall them. Most of them do. And there are so many choices that you can eventually have it doing everything you desire of it. (Beasr in mind, it's not really practical to install anything too unique or fancy on the watch because of its screen size; it's best for basic utilities that let you play videos, read books, manage calendar data, email, facebook, etc. And it does all that handily. Sometimes not with apps that work on your larger Android devices; but it doesn't take much time at all to find something that'll do the job as well in miniature.)
[Other SmartWatches] 1bluemax:
The AN1 is play store compatable you just need to follow the steps marcus posted look above.
[Other SmartWatches] Pelaphus:
Rootless

Well, all right, correction, the AN1 can be *made* Play Store compatible.

From the use I'm getting out of it, though, and the reality that there's an app for pretty much everything you'd want it to do, even without Play Store access, it doesn't seem (to me) worth jumping through the rooting hoops. I won't speak for anyone else, but for me it'd be a lateral move at best, and wouldn't improve anything.

Wearable Smart Phone Watch AN1 2.0" Touch Screen Android 4.1.1 w/ Camera / Wi-Fi - White + Silver - Free Shipping - DealExtreme[/QUOTE]
[Other SmartWatches] gladson1976:
I got the same one yesterday from another site (Amazon - branded as XElectron) and it works fine. Has Play Store in it and 4.1.1 ICS, 2" screen, Black.

No 3G. Only 2G, Bluetooth and WiFi.

Bluetooth connects and works fine with my Samsung BT headset.

The provided wired headset connects to the USB port and the sound quality is good but a bit loud at max volume. No hissing / disturbance at max volume.

Rooted it yesterday with Framaroot 1.9.3 (Boromir)

Only thing I miss in it is the menu key. Looking for an app that can show the navbar or just a standalone floating button for the menu.

EDIT: Found an app for the navbar here :) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2270198

Xposed apk installs in it, but could not install the framework (Segmentation fault). Didn't try after that.

EDIT: Xposed framework installs fine after installing this http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=51314174&postcount=9912

Almost all of the apps in the Play Store work fine in it.

Trying for a custom recovery for it now. if anyone has a custom recovery, please provide.
[Other SmartWatches] sherswan:
Thanks for any help!

Thanks for getting back to me. I can't get one until September, so I would love it if you would keep me filled in. I'm not sure what rooted means. I was told you didn't have to pay any monthly services as long as you use open WIFI. Is this how you do it?
[Other SmartWatches] gladson1976:
I've been using it with WiFi and a SIM for calls (secondary phone). As long as you are connected to a public open hotspot, you will not have to pay any data charges. You can use this without a SIM card (but you woudn't be able to make calls).

The inbuilt speaker is a bit low in noisy surroundings / outdoors (you can barely hear it), but indoors its fine. Anyway, the bundled wired headset (USB, connects to the charging port) is very good. You can also use a wireless bluetooth headset.

Battery life seems to be good. Used it for 2 days without charging.

As for rooting, if you are not sure or don't know what it means, its better to stay off it. Same goes for Xposed.

Will keep you posted :)

Rooting an AN1 android smart watch

I wonder if kind person could point me to any link that can tell me how I can root my an1 smart watch?

Device Model XHF9-AN1

Android version 4.1.1

I have tried applications like OneClickRoot but had no luck so far.

Thanks very much!

My email is: Allleyooop@yahoo.ca
[Other SmartWatches] gladson1976:
You can root the AN1 using FramaRoot or you can use ERoot 1.3.4 (eroot.net). Just search in Google and you will get both of them.

If you want CWM, you can install CWM using MTK Droid Tools after rooting. Link and instructions available just above your post. You can also Google for the software and instructions to install CWM.

I've used them to root and install CWM on my AN1. Just check a few posts above.

Could I get the stock firmware from you in case I need to flash back to stock from potentially bricking? If not could you explain how to obtain the stock firmware/Rom? I found a supposed stock rom but I'm unsure if I should use it since it didn't come from xda, thanks and let me know:)

Hi,

I'm thinking about buying the AN1 smartwatch. I would like to use the watch without a SIM card and I'd like to find out if there is a way to disable the phone while the power to the smart watch is turned on. By disable, I mean the phone will not transmit or receive from the GSM network. Also, does anyone know of a website where one can download the user manual for this watch?

So far I have not found any newer or more functional Android based smartwatch with SIM and sensors as this AN1.

Apparently it is the ONLY one with a reasonable screen size and the capability to run many Android apps.

There was a similar 'Viper' and a 'Rock' for a while, they all 'disappeared'?

It is sort of sad that there is so little activity and info exchange about this watch on the web; is it too geeky and unpopular, or simply 'bad'?

I found a very good reliable source and want to buy a new one, around $70 shipped from China, and am not sure if I should dive in, if there is no real community action in case of questions and issues? My dream is to tinker with it, try sensor apps for measuring and navigation etc.

There are a few patches and FW ZIPs for the AN1 floating around, some video clips, not much, support is almost impossible to get.

Any AN1 owner wlling to share his true thoughts and experiences?

Thanks!

[Other SmartWatches] mw210461:
Despite the low resonance in this forum I did buy this watch, out of curiosity. It arrived yesterday and seems to work, at least all built-in features, sensors, card readers etc.

As it was delivered unrooted I did apply the framaroot step and DID succeed, as rootchecking tools demonstrated.

Then I made the mistake to upgrade to a newer SuperSU and from there all went downhill. Funny crashes at boot, eventually the watch came back alive but unrooted.

The watch stays now UNrooted, and will not go into root despite several attempt to 'unroot' and 'root' it with Baramir.

Even a 'factory' reset (which BTW did NOT even switch back to Chinese) did not change this behavior. Something from the SuperSU update must have remained somewhere?

I do not want to ruin the watch after a mere 24hr of testing it, but need root access to get going (RAM expander, Link2SD etc).

Who can give advice about a clean start and root procedure? What went wrong and why??

This time I will NOT even think up updating SuperSU.

As a side note: nowhere can I find a brightness control in the menus, the manual claims it is there but it is definitely not.

I will try to locate a brightness app if I get the sucker to run, for now the root issue is dominant.

My watch spec:

Android 4.1.1

Kernel 3.0.15-570657

Baseband F9-XXLEF

Thanks for any help!

[Other SmartWatches] mw210461:
Wow, roaring silence to any of my questions.

Still, I am not giving up

.

I got the device to work reasonably stable in root mode, installed about 200 apps and am still experimenting, all by myself.

Biggest issue so far is the short runtime (display without dimming capabilities is a huge energy hog). Using Screen Standby (sending wakelocks while display is off, keeps app running this way opposite to the power button) does improve the runtime quite a bit during lengthy sessions of navigation, data exchange, backup etc.

The missing MENU button can easily be emulated with the Button Savior tool, otherwise many apps would not really work well.

A real pain in the butt is the floating MAC address, driving my WLAN router nuts. A true violation of the MAC standard, the AN1 randomly picks new values (last three bytes) whenever connecting to the WLAN.

I tried to use a fix that worked for my NEO 003 (Android 4.2.1) device, i.e. manually hack the WIFI file in the System/NVRAM area. For some reason this method does not work on the AN1, I still get random MAC numbers. I wonder what the TRUE hardware MAC really is, and how to USE it continously?

WLAN reception is rather poor as is the built-in compass sensor, GPS is great though as are the other sensors.

Screen rotation does not work properly with some applications, a helper app Rotation Manager will take care of the proper orientation for these.

Audio and camera work quite well with most apps, it even measures my pulse correctly and also radioactive stuff !!

OBD car connection via BT is also no problem - the watch tracks my real fuel consumption live, quite impressive!

KODI could possibly run, but the screen/character scaling is bad, I rather use other streaming apps to watch live TV on the AN1.

I really would like to exchange ideas and tweaks with others, as this watch has a lot of potential. It is far more interesting than the current Wear stuff from Google.

Sadly nobody seems to be interested in this amazing smartphone watch, a real steal at that price.

hello

I just bought a an1 smartwatch but the rom is messed up. the back and volume do not work and the watch constantly has force close. can you share your an1 firmware so i can reflash. thanks alot.
[Other SmartWatches] mw210461:
Actually I hoped to get some feedback myself, now I become the helper in need...

If you are looking for MPH0243.zip (which I think is the ROM pack, google!), here is my own archived copy, grabbed from the internet prior to my purchase.

https://app.box.com/s/vm9k3uos4i7qyi4lo81lms5pjmd2awjo

Please grab it soon, as I do not plan to keep this share open for a long time.

I don't have CWM installed on my AN1 and would not know how to extract the ROM myself without detailed instructions. I have never touched the ROM of my AN1, and have not seen the problems your watch exposes.

Mine runs fairly well, never crashed. Just sucks way too much energy whenever the screen is on.

"Screen Standby Root" is a life saver app for this watch, so it can fully operate (no hibernation) sans backlight in many cases (OBD2, GPS tracking, downloading, backing up etc).

A shame that so few people are interested in the AN1 - no Apple crapple or Google wear toy can reach its feature sets and functionality, all for a mere $66!

Good luck with yours!
