[Xperia Z1 Compact General] Xaeons:
And here I thought when I saw the 'pickup truck running over an Xperia Active' that smartphones are becoming sturdier..

They should change the rolled over test from a truck to a lift :D

But seriously, 6 tons?? A smartphone would have to be made of diamond or something to withstand that.
[Xperia Z1 Compact General] charlatan01:
Clearly you did not have a screen protector on it... shame on you :D

[Ornate TrueSmart] LeighR:
Its not perfect but after all the criticisms i have to say i like it
[Ornate TrueSmart] speedyink:
It's ok, I like mine too
[Ornate TrueSmart] Wiggz:
What do you like about it though?

I'm getting another SIM to use in it and I think I'll like it more then, but the fact that the companion app is so poor means that the integration with bluetooth isn't an option really.
[Ornate TrueSmart] timkey:
I'm quite happy with it too.

I have the 1/8 2100 version, and all seem to work well.

- It started up out of the box

- The cradles charge ( I got the extra one I ordered)

- the buttons don't fall off

- call quality is awesome

- screen sensitivity is good (sometimes a little too good, but hey)

- bluetooth, wifi and gps have a proper connection

- "back button" swipe left action works

And in general use:

- surprisingly easy to read on small screen

- even able to watch short video/tutorials on watch (very handy when needing both hands free)

- app installing/start up goes quick

- I use Minuum Keyboard now, and that is awesome, Frees up half the screen for reading conversations, perfect!

- with Minuum keyboard it's also easy to make small voice commands that turn to text, for me works even quicker than responding with the "normal phone" in the old days

by having the phone on the wrist it makes checking if you need to respond 10 times faster. Just a flick of the hand and a two finger swipe when you get a short vibrate or buzz from a message/email/update and you are ready. Where as the "normal phone" you have to get out of the pocket, check and put back.

The two biggest downside that I find, are not necessarily omate related but more smartwatch in general:

- by having the watch on your wrist, if you use it for typing, by default are using both arms. Where as a "normal phone" you can operate with one hand.

- I don't 100% like the reading angle: you have to hold your arm really parallel to the body to read without make strange neck moves. Having "landscape" mode is even worse.

I think about 35 degree angle of the arm would be a way better reading position. That maybe would be the biggest advantage of the round type smartwatches like the moto 360, the ability to adjust the screen orientation till it ergonomically fits you best.
[Ornate TrueSmart] LeighR:
My experience is pretty much identical to timkey's. It does what its supposed to. Typing is obviously slower but its better than I thought. Screen is sharp. It's fast. And it's a phone on my wrist :) I think rooting it and putting on soft keys and a status bar are pretty essential though. I do find the touch screen goes a little haywire sometimes.

To help with the viewing angle, I wear it a little loose and then I can twist it slightly towards me.
[Ornate TrueSmart] speedyink:
I like it because it functions just how I wanted it to. Its quite simply an android phone on your wrist, which is pretty damn awesome. Calls work pretty good, texting on this is awesome (so handy being able to just look at your wrist), and it's pretty much taken every app and game I've thrown at it so far. I also like being able to throw a song on and have handsfree music, so I can cut rebar or something at work and have music. And to top it off, I get pretty great battery life out of it. It's always lasted at least a full day, if not two. Even after two days the lowest I've had it is 30%

So, despite the company itself acting like a total noob for supporting this, it does function quite well (after some necessary patching of course). Having proper sources and support with proper firmware updates and having more tweaks android is known for available, would all just be icing on the cake.
[Ornate TrueSmart] Smockingjacket:
So would those who like it buy a TS2, or has the arrogance and sheer mismanagement of Omate put you off, even though you enjoy the product?
[Ornate TrueSmart] trent999:
I enjoy mine, though I can rarely use it as intended due to water issues. I have a T-Mobile sim in it. I would not only not ever buy anything associated with Omate ever again, but also not Umeox and not MTK. Never Again.
[Ornate TrueSmart] LeighR:
It depends. I mean, the reality is I paid about £120 for a brand new android phone in watch form. If the TS2 was also a bargain, I'd probably get one. Hopefully they would learn some good lessons from this.

I am an engineer and did my degree in electronics, so I have some experience with product development. It was very clear to me that the timescales Omate were claiming were ridiculous and that made me question their competence. I'm still impressed they produced what they did as fast as they did. The testing problems people are experiencing are not acceptable but they are expected. Omate kinda painted themselves into an corner with their optimistic claims and high ambitions.

Now, all that said, I don't see what I would want from a TS2 that in don't get from this device. Its too small to do anything too intricate. It creates a WiFi hotspot and provides basic smartphone functionality well, which is all I need it for. Maybe if I got a 4G data plan, it might be good to have a watch that can make use of it but that's all I can think of.
[Ornate TrueSmart] gerhardo:
The device has potential. I could maybe live with the HW shortcomings like IP rating, non-responsive buttons, add SD-card kills back seal etc as well as HW limitations like a little too heavy and too thick. The delays and communication failure from Omate is a separate story. I believe llepen believes what he says, he is still communicating still.

What I do not accept is the crappy firmware, that is HW specific. Noproper open source either. That kills BTLE, battery etc, as well as limits the adaptations required to get Android usable on a small device. I am not talking about limiting functionality like Android Wear, but an adapted Android experience w button actionssweep. Omate/Umeox mostly relies on MediaTek, and MediaTek seem to make good HW, but are both breaking GPL and incompetent in SW development.
[Ornate TrueSmart] nicktastique:
I love my TS. I tried to have few expectations as to not be let down if it sucked, but I was happy to find that it was just about everything I could hope for in a smartwatch. It is solidly built, not too big, the screen is very sharp and sensitive, the camera is Good Enough(tm) (though the camera app really should rotate 90 degress left, which it does in the BlueTooth tether ROM, iirc).

My one major complaint is that Omate's version Android is awful. I work around it with third-party software (e.g. Nova Launcher, All in One Gestures), and with some effort, after-market ROMs can be ported. I'm very disappointed that no sources are available, but we all knew that would be the case.

That the notification bar is always hidden bugs the heck out of me, but the BlueTooth tether ROM fixes that.

Screen-on battery life is okay; not great, not awful, but it charges very quickly, so that's usually not a big deal. Screen-off life is fantastic.

I wish I could change the DPI for Ingress. It would be so cool to be able to play on my wrist.

Working with Omate is indeed like rolling a boulder uphill, and while I'll probably never buy anything from them again until they prove themselves reliable, I do believe Le Pen is trying. And I'm as disappointed with Omate as I am with those who continue to try to poison the TS community, making productive, open collaboration difficult.

I agree with just about everything you say. Anymore I use my phone only for long text conversations and more-than-casual web browsing. Everything else is done on my TS. Flesky is remarkably easy to use once you get used to it (although whoever decided to put backspace next to return needs a smack in the face). I'm especially happy that it's so easy to read text on the small screen as I read lots of RSS feeds on and off all day long.

The reading angle bothered me at first, but my arm just had to get used to being held in an unfamiliar position.

The IP rating and back seal issues don't matter much to me, but I can see how that would be a disappointment to other users. The button responsiveness, weight, and thickness are fine for me. It did seem a bit heavy for the first day or two, but I quickly got used to it.
[Ornate TrueSmart] gerhardo:
Xposed Framework

Xposed Per App Settings

I consider setting default dpi to something higher than 120, to see better and change dpi where needed
[Ornate TrueSmart] nicktastique:
Yes, but it doesn't work, and others have confirmed. Is your experience different?
[Ornate TrueSmart] speedyink:
No.

While I like the watch itself, if I were to drop another $200-$300 on a new watch, it would be from a company that can support it's device a little more competently. I really doubt we'll ever see a firmware update.

Although as long as this watch doesn't **** the bed I should be using it for a good long time. It functions pretty much like I want it to, so I don't feel the need to upgrade anytime soon.
[Ornate TrueSmart] stingray454:
I like it as well. After changing launcher and installing a few apps I felt it was usable. I tried for a while to use it as phone replacement. It DOES work as that, but the upsides of having a watch (smaller / lighter than a phone, won't forget something strapped to your arm and so on) doesn't really outweigh the downsides (hard to type, sometimes hard to navigate menus, small screen causing readability and layout issues, battery is slightly worse than my phone, etc). The most annoying issue though is when the screen goes into over-sensitive mode and register button press all over the place. Someone said it gets a lot better with a screen protector on, I will try that.

However, it does work great in some areas. My main use is for exercise - RunKeeper (and similar apps) works great. I can take a run, track my progress, listen to music, and see notifications if someone is trying to reach me, without needing a much more cumbersome phone jumping around in my pocket.

It's also useful when I'm outdoors, say fishing or hiking. While it isn't waterproof, it does what I need (gps / maps, tell time, make calls if I need to, no risk of dropping it).

So overall, it's a nice device (even though software and such needs some urgent updates). Maybe not great for a phone replacement but for outdoor use and exercise it's really good imo.
[Ornate TrueSmart] gerhardo:
Works fine for me, using it for SuperSU and Titanium.

Well, the TS is unavailable again: Screen is black, no response to buttons (except the feedback I added with Xposed Additions to get virtual physical button) and no adb. adb is a common issue, very seldom works. But I have my device for a couple of days, I have occasionally borrowed one for time to time though.
[Ornate TrueSmart] trent999:
He means that changing the DPI to 90 for Ingress doesn't work, I think, gerhardo.

Actually, I play Ingress with my TrueSmart and the stock Ingress client (only) and it mostly does work. Hacking and firing work fine from the front screen long press menu and I was even able to deploy I found recently mainly by lucky pressing in the portal view on a crunched up set of buttons there. I had previously thought deploying impossible with stock and stock. Its still impractical.

What was reported no longer working was adjusting the DPI because of some change Niantic introduced into their code at some point a while back. I have not tried that anyway.
[Ornate TrueSmart] nicktastique:
Yes that's what I mean in particular. Ingress no longer honors density settings via App Settings. It doesn't even appear to honor ro.sf.lcd_density on the TS, though it does on my Note 2 (which is annoying since it's set to 280).
[Ornate TrueSmart] dribfunk:
I like mine too (1/8 2100 Dev).

Straight from the box, no patch, no rom, no bootloader, no nothing. The apps tho aren't there but it's almost like when the new Xbox, Playstation or Nintendo come out - people don't introduce games until the hardware is in use. I figure the developers of apps are waiting, working and planning something awesome for all smartwatches (not just companions).

Omate, well, hopefully, lessons on their side have been learned and fingers crossed the TS2 (if there is one) will be better planned for.

Hats off to SWApp Link tho. The app is the best thing that's been introduced for me. I had my SIM in my phone originally, then the watch and now back to the phone (just to work out what is best for me - I take a lot of photos and use 4G too much so my Note 3 is where my SIM is needed most) but the app - Bluetooth aside - is absolutely wonderful.

I don't regret buying the TureSmart, nor regret using Kickstarter - I have backed many an idea over the months. My regret is that the technology in total isn't there, yet.

But thank you XDA for being here :good:

3D effect for you Lens Blur images made with the official Google Camera Application. You can choose between compass or touch based input for the effect. I personally recommend the compass as input method.

Note: This only works with images of the official Google Camera Application (>version 21043130) in combination with the Lens Blur Feature

How To:

- open the Google Camera Application

- shoot an image with the Lens Blur image

- long press on a free spot in your home screen

- select Wallpaper

- select Lens Blur Live Wallpaper

- go to settings and choose the Lens Blur image

Adjust the settings for a more dramatic 3D effect, but be aware that this also introduces more artifacts.

If the device still exhibits the behavior...then a hardware issue may be at Work here...

If the device gets hot to the touch....then get the device to a stock and clean state...so some unmodified testing can take place...

Hey guys, Right now i am sitting here very confused. I have two Samsung Galaxy S4's from Sprint. They were given to me by my god sister but i cant figure out how to make them work for Straight Talk. They are both running 4.4.2 and the base band is L720VPUFNAE. I was told by sprint last night that they could be unlocked and that all i needed was a MSL number. I was given the MSL for both phones already but don't know what im suppose to do to the phones to be able to unlock them. I have looked through several threads throughout several forums and i have tried several codes such as *#0011# as well ##3423# but nothing works. I cant find any concrete answers that don't completely confuse me. So my question is...Is there anyway to actually get this phone working on Straight Talk? Does it have to flashed or unlocked first and if so how to actually do that? Is there anyway to do this without rooting the phones? If not whats the easiest way to root the phone to make this possible? Please im Just looking for some help.
