0.3 MP or 5MP Camera?

Just wondered if someone could clarify something for me. I'm thinking about buying this watch but I've seen conflicting specs from different sites. I've seen it on www.electrofame.com and it states it is 5MP camera and then a seller on ebay is selling one and says it is only 0.3 MP??

Can someone clarify if possible. Are there variants on this model as I thought they were all the same just know by different names e'g happy life, K2, Lumen, Star ET2602???

Choppy Bluetooth Headset when talking on skype or facebook messenger

Hi guys I bought the watch and so far it's doing good especially on streaming music to my bluetooth earphones however, when I call via skype, the audio is very choppy when i use my bluetooth earphones which is also the case for regular calls...any fix for this? Can I use a micro usb to 3.5mm adapter to use regular wired earphones if ever?

One more thing, I tried rooting the phone with Kingroot and it doesn't work...can you guys give instructions for kingroot or any other root tool for this watch? I need it for the 'bluetooth fixer' app which I hope will fix the pairing with my bluetooth earphones when calling via skype

Thanks!

camera resolution

Would you mind clarifying something for me. There are various model names for this watch including swatch, k2, lumen, star e2602, etc and i just wondered what the megapixel resolution is for the camera as they vary from website to website. One website might state 8MP and then on ebay one seller has one for sale stating 0.3MP. Just wondered if you know if they are all the same and just bad typos?
[Other SmartWatches] smartwatchuser:
On settings, there is an 8 megapixel option on this watch...though I think it may be interpolated but still, 8 megapixel on the settings is available.
[Other SmartWatches] afacchin:
I think that is normally. The same behaviour for me

Anyone know how to fix boot loop?

I changed the build prop to have 12 instead of 24 hr time now it just boot loops :(

---------- Post added at 08:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:01 PM ----------

Anyone know how to get into recovery mode?
[Other SmartWatches] bab1c:
If you haved root it you can try with abd on your pc, i've solved some problem on mine with this after made a wipe data (lots of fc on boot : launcher, gapps, ...) but il must be root.

I've rooted it with the king root apk directly on the smartwatch
[Other SmartWatches] akira712:
It was rooted before boot loop, adb doesn't see the watch though.

maybe i shouldnt call it boot loop, it gets to the boot screen animation and just keeps running the animation over and over.
[Other SmartWatches] bab1c:
I've see a recovery mode on this watch, but doen't know how to get in (it works with the adb command reboot recovery), and when in recovery can't use it because touchscreen doesn't seem to be active....
[Other SmartWatches] akira712:
So im sol. Watch deosnt have a useable recovery mode and adb cant see the device and it stays in the boot animation screen...

According to cpu-z the clock seems to have barometer thermometer and UV sensor.

Has anyone install application to take advantage of these capabilities ?

For now the only app I use is K9 mail and works very well with my exchange 2007 account.
[Other SmartWatches] akira712:
So i tried "adb logcat log" and it sees the watch and keeps updating for the bootloop/boot animation. no idea how to read the log data or where to go from here...

Google now, voice search, other android apps

I have bought this watch and I have been able to root it as well, I have installed various applications like flappy birds onto the watch. my next goal is to find a better companion for this watch like SWApp link. I think the only down fall to this watch is the inability to type a message in response to a text message.

any luck with GApps?
[Other SmartWatches] Lokifish Marz:
With root only, there is a very simple way. It still requires the method be modified so to remove the Setup Wizard but it does work.
[Other SmartWatches] joshohmy:
there is few mtk tools out there i fount one mtk65** on google but im on a prime and cant test it. As for boot loops i notice on start windows sees it as "some interface device(cant remember exactly)" i would try using chrome in translate mode for the driver. As mentioned above adb is probably the only fix
[Other SmartWatches] akira712:
i can get some command to work in adb and fast boot; reboot, reboot-bootloader, logcat...

I can get the watch to boot into bootloader (fastboot mode) and recovery but still not sure how to factory reset from adb :S

The watch only will show after adb reboot-bootloader, fastboot devices. but not in adb ever

what commands should i be using in adb to wipe data & cache?

Okay, I got everything installed kind of how I want it. But how do I remove the setup wizard!? I have a micro USB to female USB adapter to plug a keyboard in, it works fine on my phone, but right when I plug the micro usb cable into watch it powers off, might anyone know why? The set up would not be such a bad deal if there was a working keyboard to use. maybe setting up a bluetooth keyboard before the app store install?
[Other SmartWatches] Lokifish Marz:
su rm /system/app/SetupWizard.apk

or

Using 7Zip, open the apk, go to res folder, go to raw folder, open the 4.2.2 zip and delete SetupWizard.apk. Then install and run.
[Other SmartWatches] Warrenchild:
How would I run the su command? from a terminal emulator on the watch after I install the gapps install program? I tried the 7zip method now the watch will not install the gapps installer package :\ I appreciate your help so far!!

[Other SmartWatches] Warrenchild:
root, Gapps, setup.

Thanks for the modified version. I ended up using remote shell for adb and closing the setup wizard than uninstalling it. This watch is one of the coolest watches I have seen, especially now with playstore on it. Only thing that would make this watch better is being able to send a text to a contact using the watch. the only thing I have figured out how to do is to reply to text messages. anyone have any ideas!?

Edit:

Also, on the band situation, they are ugly we get that, but more over they do not stay clasped. has anyone found a way to make them work better without changing the look to much? right now I have a Velcro strap I use to keep the watch clasped but it is not very good :\
[Other SmartWatches] Lokifish Marz:
Try SWApp Link. It should work.

troubles with bluetooth connection

Hi guys,

I bought this watch and attempted to connect it to three different phones. It looks like I have no problems with a connection to ACUBE phablet (MTK8382) and HTC One V. However, when I connect it to my iOcean X7S (MTK6592) the watch vibrates with random intervals once every 30-60 seconds (each of the vibrations is actually a double-vibration signal, like bzz-bzz). This happens only when watch is connected to the iOcean X7S phone, so there is something wrong with a bluetooth connection.

Turning the watch's or phone's screen on/off does not affect the vibrations much, however it looks like it happens less frequently when phone is idle during few minutes. Also, watch does not show any messages or notifications when it vibrates..

Has anyone seen such bug with a watch / SWatchManager.apk?

The GApps installer I posted doesn't work? If so let me know so I can delete it from Google Drive.
[Other SmartWatches] stonedsun:
It did not work for me: I installed it but Google Play always crashed after the installation.

Therefore, I had to download the original GApps installer APK, open it with 7zip and remove the Setup Wizard APK from the 4.2.2 version. Then I reinstalled the GApps using this modified installer APK and Google Play started working like a charm.

I nstalled GMail, Skype, GMaps, ... maps tend to crash from time to time when panning the map or searching something on the map.

Looking for "Standard App" apks

I was really disappointed that this watch did not come with apps for Facebook, Gmail, Instagram, Twitter, you know all of the worlds most popular apps??? Does anyone have a collection of these that they've already tested and installed? Any chance we could just get a zip file of them and then push them one-by-one to the phone to install manually?

The watch is great but if none of the apps on it support the most popular Android apps then what's the sense of it?

Thanks in advance for any and all help!
[Other SmartWatches] Warrenchild:
Install google play store and you can get apps for all your stuff.. or find offline install packages and use a USB to upload the files to watch for install. very simple. Google play store is not a newbie friendly install, but read these forums you can figure it out :) if you need help PM me

[Other SmartWatches] Warrenchild:
Kill Setup wizard after Gapps install

After installing GApps you have to exit out of the setup wizard. here is instructions on how to do that.

1. plug in your watch to computer while setup wizard is on.

2. open a command shell, type cmd into the start menu search bar.

3. start Remote ADB shell by typing 'adb -d shell' in your command prompt window (without quotes)

4. get super user permission 'su'

5. type command 'pu' and it will bring up a list of all tasks that are running on the watch.

6. find the one that says setup wizard and note the process ID number.

7. kill app by typing 'kill <process id from ps output>'

8. it will kill the first part of the setup, but you will have to do a little bit of the setup still with the wizard to get it completely gone.
[Other SmartWatches] joshohmy:
Thanks man I'll try it when I get in. I'm gonna have to install SDK right?
[Other SmartWatches] Warrenchild:
I would deff install SDK as it has the full fledged ADB tool.

I forgot that you have to navigate to the Tools folder where the ADB.exe file resides. 'cd c:/something/tools/' is the command.. replace address with the right one for your computer.
[Other SmartWatches] Gravitón:
Thank you very much. I have my watch again. Only one thing: to call task the command is ps, not pu.:good:
[Other SmartWatches] emel6:
You can delete the setup wizard:

Install a Java SDK

Download and unzip the Android SDK (for example, c: \ androidsdk).

Clock I connect via USB (USB not detected, turn on)

Launching a Windows command prompt (cmd.exe)

cd C: \ androidsdk \ sdk \ platform-tools

adb devices

adb shell

su

mount-o rw, remount / system

rm system / app / SetupWizard.apk

exit

Clock reboot.
[Other SmartWatches] Warrenchild:
Thanks for the other way. I tried this and could not figure it out to well. More over, when your mounting file systems you can completely mess the watch up. Just be careful.

I have a very strange problem.

In "Auxiliary function" mode i do not get vibration (nor ringtone) on incoming calls. Vibration (and ringtone) work with SMS and other notifications.

When I switch to "Bluetooth headset" mode, everything is just fine, vibration and ringtone works for incoming calls...

[Other SmartWatches] crodgers79:
Tell me if I got this right..?

OK, so yesterday I went ahead and rooted the watch and used the"modified" Gapps that are found, I think on page 2 of this thread. All I did was copy the apks for the root application and Gapps to the watch's Download folder and then run the apks..easy peasy.. OK so now I've got Play Store and can load apps.

Now, I bought another SmartWatch, this one also looks like a Galaxy Gear but it's a Bluetooth watch, not a full-blown Android device like this one. The Bluetooth watch installs a program on my Android phone which then pushes notices of posts to Facebook, Gmail and Twitter to the watch and it's very nice. Now, since I rooted this watch and installed these same apps it looks like they don't update over Bluetooth from the phone..right?? So, I think the only way I can use these PlayStore apps is to turn Wi-Fi on on the watch..right?? The bad news is that the Wi-Fi drains the watch in about 8-10 hours.. I had it charged last night when I went to bed around 9:30PM and when I got up at 5:30AM the watch was down to 2% power. Oh by the way I am running the latest firmware right out of the box (I think it's the June 13th dated ROM).

OK, so while the other Bluetooth watch is great for notifying me of incoming messages and tweets, it looks like this watch won't do that, am I right? Is the only viable way to use Gmail, Twitter and Facebook to turn on Wi-Fi? am I missing something??

Thanks in advance for all replies!
