[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tweakradje:
Take a look at the "fitness.wearable_sync_interval_secs" variable that is "900". (15 minutes)

This can be found in the "gservices.db" table "main" of the "Google Services Framework".

But setting it to 0 has no effect. After Reboot it is back at 900. Grrr.

I don't have wearable fitness device. Why wake up my phone every 15 minutes to look for it?

With Google Settings > Google Fit you can check whether a wearable fitness device is connected.

I think Google should pay more attention to Battery Drain and Controlling it by a normal Android user via the GUI.

Edit: only got rid of this wakelock by disabling one service: the UserPresenceService. Disabling other wear/fitness services still produced wakelocks.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] B3311:
Note 3 owner here, had this wakelock last night for the first time and this was the first hit when I Googled.

Like others, no wearables, and I had deleted all fitness etc apks long ago.

Hope the Disable Services app does the job - thanks for the tip anyway, looks useful.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frigidazzi:
Disable services app has been working great for this wake lock in my case. Has anyone been able to use it for nlp wake locks? I can't seem to find that one. It's possible I'm blind.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tweakradje:
For all the people here: In Google Play Services on you device you can give feedback to the Google Play Services team.

Better use that than posting here I guess :)

Edit: this is the proper way to give feedback to the Google Play Services Team:

For people who want to report using the Google Play Services app:

- Open the Google Settings app (grey-blue gear like with "g" in it)

- press you phone menu button

- choose Help and Feedback

- press Feedback text in the upper right corner

- write your feedback (include system logs)

I advise to anyone with this problem to do it like this. Let the team know.

Cheers

On a Samsung Galaxy mega running tw 4.4.2. Did all recommendations on this page and am now at .5%/hr drain as opposed to 3.5-5%. However note I have only been testing for 3 hours, so i may go back on this. Thanks fornqll the info.

Version went from 6.1.88 to 6.5.87 today on my tablet. (25 nov 2014)

Lets hope they picked up this wakelock signal.

EDIT: version 6.5.87 of Google Play Service now also on my phone. After half a day wakelocks look OK. (after enabling UserPresense Service again and reboot)

Disable Services

Hey Guys,

With the latest Google Play Services Update (6.5.87) on my rooted Galaxy SIII running CM11 M12 the App 'Disable Service' shows 214 services (entries).

I have experienced a longer time with ever more and more unticked entries resulting in reduced wakelocks and lowered use of memory.

At the moment, I have 70(!) Services unticked for the Google Play Services App and it is using no more than 25.7 MB of Memory.

So, what I want to say is that it is worth trying to untick as many services as possible to reduce battery drain.

Some services are essential and it is therefore not recommended to untick them (all), BUT you can be able to only reduce the amounts of wakelocks by an app called "Amplify" ...

I don't want to do advertising, but this is a really great app.

Best wishes

ANDydeROID
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I agree. Amplify with disable service, as well as greenify and my phone sleeps like a baby

Hello,

using BetterBatteryStats I found that terrible process com.android.google.gms which is draining my battery. So I run through this thread and did every mentioned thing, starting DisableSrvices and killing all that fitness and wearable stuff but no luck... still the same :(

Any idea what else can be wrong with that gms service????

Thanks for help.

VicC

EDIT1: Just disbaled all the google location stuff and Google+ location sharing - reboot - after few mins, gms wakelocks still there :( I am going mad about it............ :silly:

EDIT2: Just tried this guide to fix SystemUpdateService wakelock, wiped cache and dalvik, rebooted... Now waiting whats going on....

EDIT3: Trying Amplify if I can get more info...

EDIT4: oh no... Now my device wont deep sleep at all :-/
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smithilberry:
What fixed mine (com.android.google.gms drain) was downgrading Google play services and then updating again. My battery drain is gone since.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shivadow:
Just to clarify, wakelocks wake your phone up so why are you using a permanently awake app to control and shutdown a permanently awake app?

Do you guys actually know what you're doing?. Amplify, greenify and the likes are all crap and dont work. I challenge any dev to take me on over it!. Double dare.

[Moto X Q&A] anassparx:

[Ornate TrueSmart] mghtymse007:
Just got note from my contact at Umeox that they are ready to produce a new version of SmartWatch. It takes after the general look and size of the existing x201 series, but adds some nicely upgraded features that are enticing.

As always, nothing I have is 100% confirmed... but rumors usually are typically nothing but just premature facts.

The watch will have:

1.2 - 1.4MHz dual core, MTK6572w (Not the 6577)

Full Android KitKat 4.4

320x320 LG display, 1.54" - 1.6"

Will be branded as a Umeox

1G/8G (up to 64Gb)

US GSM, 850mhz 2G and 1900mhz 3G

Wi-Fi b/g/n

Bluetooth 4.0

GPS

5.0M Camera

720p HD video

IP68 water worthiness

OTA updates

So far, they have yet to receive enough orders to produce the first 500 units, currently short by only 100, and have asked me to post a poll and see how much interest there is for a device like this on this side of the world...

Initial reports show this watch will sell for less or the same as the TS.

So question of the day...

1. What is your interest level on a device that would have the above specifications? What would you like to see added or changed?

2. Would you buy this watch if the above specs are true, value pricing and is branded under Umeox with their support?

I'll go first...

YES and yes!!!

For me, one of my bigger complaints about my TS is the poor resolution of the screen. I think the added dpi will be extremely helpful in reading some of the smaller text in some third party apps. Also the failed waterproof design of the TS has me constantly in fear of loss doing menial H2O activities and is totally unacceptable.

Competitors or alike devices

I was looking at the Gear S due to it's beautiful curved, hi-res screen... But TIZEN....! Come on, Sammy, stop trying to become Apple and create your own ecosystem!

This has put my and my techy friend's interest in the AI Watch on the back burner and would rather have these specs. We all would very much like to see this one make it to the US market... Please give your comments.
[Ornate TrueSmart] kuronosan:
My interest is low, because this is the device backers should have received.

If I can trade old devices for it, I'd be happy to.

Otherwise, no. The interest is clearly there but not for what I paid at KS price for the TS1.
[Ornate TrueSmart] jaskru:
My interest is high. I would buy if it had kk and some improvements in hardware.

Perhaps if MediaTek is participating with the Android One initiative we will see better support? Dunno what the board specs are so who really knows.

http://www.mediatek.com/en/news-eve...-affordable-smartphones-for-emerging-markets/

But yes, I would buy it right now if it had a slight hardware bump and KK.
[Ornate TrueSmart] mghtymse007:
Couldn't agree more! But in the end, the TS was a first. Technology firsts don't have the greatest of track records. Of the standalones available or coming available, ie Gear S, AI Watch and various no name SZ offerings, this is the only decent possibility. IMHO
[Ornate TrueSmart] figers:
Yes, if it has KK, Bluetooth low energy, all the previous flaky bluetooth issues are fixed, speakerphone call quality is improved and my biggest issue, battery and SIM shouldn't need a screw driver to get at, make it easy, it isn't water proof and doesnt need to be
[Ornate TrueSmart] gerhardo:
This is the x201 specs, except for the screen and uC. I do not see the use for a 320x320 1,6'' screen. Maybe a 320x240 2'' (same width). I do not follow 6577 instead of 6572: More power required (40nm vs 28nm) and I see low need for faster CPU.

Umeox branding is fine - the company that can just not disappear without loosing credibility.

However, the specs are OK, it could be interesting.

But the most important is in the details:

* Thickness/weight?

* Auto-focus on camera? (Why 5MP....)

* Control of kernel and Android at Umeox? Quality of drivers? Follow the GPL? Work with the community? Android updates?

* HW reliability? Real or fake IP68?

There are alternatives already. Personally, I want a sports device with barometer and preferably ANT+ too, nothing there yet.

However, I will pass on this one until the commitment to live up to the specs can be believed, the track record is not too good (I still believe Omate had good intentions).

Edit: Getting stable ROM and usable kernel source for existing x201 is one way to make me interested.
[Ornate TrueSmart] walscobry:
Yes

I think I would like my TS if its touchscreen was not defective. I will be trying again with some type of stand alone phone swatch. not interested in a BT dongle watch.
[Ornate TrueSmart] Lokifish Marz:
Interested in the PCB, components and full source code. Then build these instead;
[Ornate TrueSmart] Echo_Platoon:
I agree with you on this. I bought the Extreme Edition of the watch. If they would let me trade in my current one for, at least, some credit towards buying the new one, it would be nice.
[Ornate TrueSmart] jhax01:
I would be interested.... Support would be my biggest concern... The TS does everything I need it to do. I had no designs on it replacing my phone other than when running... Beyond that, it's a glorified iPod for me so it works as intended... My issue with it is that if the band breaks or it has some other problem, there's little to nothing that can be done about it. I wear it everyday and so far it's held up but I'm sure it's only a matter of time...
[Ornate TrueSmart] perpe:
I can't believe that the specs are right.

MT6577 is a 40 nm CPU from 2012. Should be a very bad option for a smartwatch with small battery. Long time ago since I saw new devices with that CPU. Most of them had ICS, only a few get updated to Jellybean (4.1). I don't know any mt6577 device with Kitkat.

Other Chinese smartphone manufactures switched to other CPU to ship their devices with a more recent Android Version. I thought mt6577 was EOL.
[Ornate TrueSmart] speedyink:
The upgraded screen is a definite plus for me. As said before, the CPU is kind of old...if it was styled more like the Omate I'd be interested. I prefer the look of the Omate to pretty much any of the other watches based off the x201.
[Ornate TrueSmart] mghtymse007:
You are correct. After a quick confirmation, he was mistaken in his first spec list. The CPU is going to be:

MTK6572w

I just got the full spec sheet from Umeox. I'll check if I can post publicly.

Will change OP, thanks for heads up.
[Ornate TrueSmart] mghtymse007:
Sometimes tapa is slower than me...
[Ornate TrueSmart] jhax01:
Agreed on the styling... I have had strangers ask about it because they liked the style of the Omate.
[Ornate TrueSmart] kuronosan:
The Iron Man is the x202.
[Ornate TrueSmart] simple1i:
1. I would need dimension: width, height and thickness ... some are far too big and thick to wear.

2. Battery life!?

3. Loads of sensors ...barometer, compass. ..etc. with sensors it can compete with other sport watches.

4. What assurances can they give that they will keep their promise?

I mean we can all show our interest but we're not obliged to order so yes I'm interested with the same conviction as the supplier.

MT6572 - the same (or similar) processor as the InWatch Z, interesting, with MediaTek MiraVision.
[Ornate TrueSmart] haybill:
Sounds relatively interesting-whether I would actually shell out hard cash is another thing altogether.

Still finding little niggles with my TS-so just a bit wary.

So if 500 orders are made then what happens? What are the nexts steps?
[Ornate TrueSmart] pepesr1000:
I understand that, at least my watch, is 240x240 physically.

The dp or dip is used by apps to comunicate to the Android system in such a way that the interface is more or less homogeneous independently of the screen size (small, medium, large, xlarge, xxl...)

but physically is 240x240 and not 320x320.

What about the rom?
[Ornate TrueSmart] kuronosan:
It's a 240*240 display without a doubt. It looks like they upscale things to get a higher DPI.

The effective resolution is 320*320, but there are only 240*240 pixels displayed.

This is similar to how upscaling digital camera resolution works.
[Ornate TrueSmart] pepesr1000:
Thanks, this is clear to me.

What about the ROM? when do you ghink you can share it?

Thanks in advance
[Ornate TrueSmart] kuronosan:

I know a lot of folk are having problems, but a question was asked if anyone has a fully functioning unit - to date, about a month of use, mine is still ok.
[Ornate TrueSmart] BenjaminM:
I've been following this post for some time now and almost bought the watch for my Xmas. I'm sorry for those of you who had disappointment, but know that you helped other fellows.

I'd like to ask if someone could send me couple of screen cap of the app 'Wahoo Fitness' (especially in workout recording mode). I need to see how it appears on a the screen and if it can fit or changing dpi is necessary.

I would install on my TrueSmart, but it is only compatible Android >4.3.

Many thanks
[Ornate TrueSmart] pepesr1000:
To be fair, the problem I have is a SW one (likely) and initially by reinstalling the ROM I would I will be able to solve it. The issue is that the factory does not want to release the ROM. I know it is a matter of time to get the image and them try it. Otherwise I will have to ship it back to China and wait for them to send it back (likely 2 months). This is way and desparatly wating for the ROM to be uploaded here.

But is is a great watch, and compare to my old Callisto 100 (like your TS), it is much much better.

I am not at the point where I will discorage people to buy it, I would say the oposite.

[Ornate TrueSmart] Strainer:
I'm considering buying this watch. I'm still undecided between the Unova Iron Man and the ZGPAX S8.

The main reason for not going for the Unova is the uncertain build Quality with quite a few reports of broken units, the relatively bulky design and that there seems to be only the green and orange versions available anymore, which both look like childrens toys.

The ZGPAX S8 on the other hand while having worse hardware got quite good feedback, I haven't found reports of units stopping to work and the new Firmware should hopefully fix all issues.

I guess the Unova should have better battery life but also looks bulkier than the ZGPAX S8. I would appreciate all feedback on this topic. At first I was considering the AW-414.GO, but it seems outdated in comparison. (Only Advantage is that the AW.414 is available locally, while the Unova and ZGPAX have to be ordered from aliexpress)
[Ornate TrueSmart] jeffmplsmn:
Although the Ali Express seller said it was cheap to ship product back to China, I couldn't find a reliable way I would classify as cheap. I'm going to sit on the sidelines until something else comes along with Android 4.4 or later and in a decent form factor. Maybe when inWatchUSA releases something I may look at that device. So for now I'm happy with my Sony Smartwatch 3. Hopefully Google will soon add more functionality to Android Wear that will really make the Sony more useful.
[Ornate TrueSmart] simple1i:
[MENTION=1600637]Strainer[/MENTION] - for $240 the Ironman is not worth what you get. There's no support, after sales policy is you pay for their faults & not IP67. I'd pay 160 maximum. But the bulkiness is a deal breaker.

The AW-404 & all the clones like the Z15, Z01 does seem outdated, you get less resolution, Rom and sensors, but in real life use its not that bad. There's no apps for the sensors for the Ironman, on a small screen resolution is not an issue and is 0.5 GB of ROM really going to matter as it won't be used as a full-time mobile phone replacement . Of course it's a matter of opinion and how you are intending to use it.

If you can wait then the inWatch Z seems like a good choice especially with its tranrefelctive screen and longer battery life.

If you can't wait then like you said the zgpax S8 or worth a try or one of the Omate clones like the Z15 or Z01 for $132. I don't think these watches give less value or functionality for what we pay for them nor for what we use them for.

The summarise:

Ironman - not too bad if it was cheaper and less bulky. The steel body is very very useful as a weapon, you can knock someone out with it.

InWatch Z seems like the only good option to date, but it won't be out until early next year.

If you want a watch now then don't underestimate the Omate clones as long as your not going to use it as a daily driver cell phone. They work quiet well and have most of the functionality most people need and it's lighter and slightly less bulky.

The S8 with some issues seems decent but has a bunch of devs trying to fix it up.

LG are releasing a GSM watch soon, but all or most of the watches have some issue. It's a case of waiting even more longer or lowering expectations.

[Ornate TrueSmart] Strainer:
Thanks for your in-depth answer. I was trying to get my hands on an Asus ZenWatch but wasn't able to get one of the few available in my country. The regular release is in January, and as I have read some reports on poor battery life on the ZenWatch, burnt in Displays on the G-Watch R, I'm not sure if the current gen of Android Ware is really worth it yet.

As it seems, this product is an Omate clone aswell, it was available for EUR 100,- until 2 days ago, now it went back to EUR 170,-. I think my best bet is to either order the S8 and play around with that until a smartwatch is released that is less bulky, has decent battery life and also a higher Resolution Screen. But I think until then I will be satisfied with my S8, at least if I can walk in public with a watch of that size (funny, but that seems to be my main concern actually).

There also seem to be quite a few offers for the InWatch Z on Aliexpress, not sure if those are legit though. (And at least the specs don't seem to be any better than the S8 for example)

[Ornate TrueSmart] pepesr1000:
Thanks for the ROM. Sorry I did not come back to you before.

I have been trying to make it work and it has taken me quite some time. I have gone through the process of flashing my watch, including to brick it few times, recover it, etc....

At the end I have managed to flash it. The very first thing I have noticed is that my ROM was from Nov 2014 and yours is from August 2014.

There are some differences in the layout of the icons of the pre-installed apps, and some of them are different.

With your ROM I have problems to install Google Play Services and Google Play Store and make it work. The service stops after a few seconds with an error message. I have also tried to make the GPS work withouth success, so my problem is not yet solved by reflashing my watch with your factory ROM.

I have the impression that there is still some persistent configuration in the memory from the old flash that had problems. With your ROM I cannot whipe out completely the memory and make a factory reset. When the watch boots with the POWER and HOME pressed, I get to the menu with two options but when I press POWER it does not go to recovery mode, it reboots and starts normally.

I have the impresion that my initial problem is probably in that part of the memory that is not flashed with your firmware.

Is is possible to pass me the USRDATA, CACHE and RECOVERY binaries?

Has somebody a newer ROM image?
