[update 2] I just summarized a way to backup and restore (all based on other great DEV's work, just put in one place) your TS before your play with your TS here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=52820278#post52820278

Go check it if you plan to root your TS!

[update] With the help of cheahcl, I got the latest F/W for 4th List 1/8/2100. With the MTK SP_Flash_Tool, I was able to upload a corrected F/W for my TS and everything goes back to normal!

Thanks for cheahcl for his dump and Lokifish Marz for his All in one tools! You guys really saved my day! (and my TS).

A Quick summary: Do NOT use any method on XDA yet to root or change TWRP recovery! It seems the TS of 4th list is different in some way than the ones before which render most of stuffs here invalid. However, fear not to play around since now we have a way to go back to stock!

In my experience, I found that it's really difficult to truly brick a MTK based system. The system will just reject flashing at slightest sign that a F/W is not compatible. The only cache is you need to have the "correct" F/W specifically for your TS!

In my observation, OMate made changes between each delivery. For Example, the 4th list of 1/8/2100 is different in (At least F/W configuration) of the 3rd or earlier 1/8/2100.

------------------------below is my original story of what I tried and failed--------------------------

Just got mine (1/8/2100) 5 hrs ago! I am on the 4th list. The delivery in FAST!

The watch starts normally. I played with it for a while, than decided to root it, install TWRP and apply the security hack made by +Lokifish Marz

Now I have a brick! Just after 30 min I receive the watch!

<<Can anyone help me here?>>

First of all, in respecting to all great DEVs, I have NO intention to blame anyone else but myself. (I did this to my own watch!)

Second, I have been rooting Android since Cupcake day, so I am not a Noob... (or so I think...) I am very familiar with ADB/fastboot... and use almost daily.

So here is the guide to brick. If Anyone have any idea please help me out!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1st, I tried to use this tool to root+TWRP+scurity patch http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2713183&page=2 knowing it's NOT tested against 1/8/2100. I just tried anyway... The script went with a lot of errors, it seems the script cannot locate correct files but still push the security patched files into the /system/app (and other places).

I turn on the watch, but it just stuck at boot logo (the orange "Truesmart" logo without animation)

Also, the Recovery is still stock, TWRP is no where to be seen.

Since ADB still works, I adb reboot couple times, pull the battery, let the watch run for 2hrs, etc... Nothing works. The watch just stuck at the boot logo.

Than I follow this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2641261 and http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2641261 with Stock firmware downloaded from http://d-h.st/users/Lokifish Marz/?fld_id=30814#files (Omate_1-8_2100_TrueSmart_20140328.zip)

I installed all drivers, restarts my Win 7 (x86) pc (several times), and after several attempts the Flashtool just flash in the Firmware.

The Tools flash with a green Check mark, indicating everything is ok!

However the watch just become a brick after this....

Than this completed the brick process! Now the watch won't even turn on, when I try to use Flash tool again, it always say S_FT_ENABLE_DRAM_FAIL. Google this and you find it's due to flashing wrong F/W, but I don't know where went wrong!

Anyone else have same problem or it's just me? Anyone have solution?
