he lzwfkv, I'm happy to find someone with experience on the M7.

I've tried shake on/off on my zgpax s8 and that worked very nicely. (There is another user called smartwatchticks that has created a video from it).

So I tried the same on the M7. It shakes off well, but doesn't shake on.

Is the accelerometer sensor still active when the screen is off?

At this point there are 2 things that I could use some help with:

1) indeed starting the interface without touching buttons. (see experience above)

2) get a relacement bluetooth keyboard from an android based tablet(or phone)

I wanted to try pushbullet, but the M7 does not accept the installation of teh tool.

(I'm actually wondering if someone managed to use the keboard of a tablet as if it were a bluetooth keyboard. I would like to do more of things like what tablet talk does, but not only for SMS)

Of course I could just buy a bluetooth hardwere keyboard, but that seems so uninventive when one already has a tablet or phone that could be used as a big screen.

cheers.
[Ornate TrueSmart] lzwfkv:
[MENTION=6067934]bernsbe[/MENTION], as for the watch wake up try awesome on/off screen or shake they work on mine both. I prefer the type of shake implemented by awesome on off though.

Point two: i think you have found a sort of workaround with messagease keaboard in another thread. However you can find a number of apps in playstore that give you remote keaboard, mouse and remote desktop of android devices from another android.
[Ornate TrueSmart] bernsbe:
lzkwfkv,

The thing is that these tools are not taking care of typing on the interface.

Some only work with SMS, others have a broader range of application but require a wireless connection (which is more battery consuming than a bluetooth solution).

In a world where virtually every hardware has bluetooth enabled, I'm realy wondering if there's no option to simply turn an old android tablet or phone into a bluetooth keyboard that hooks to other devices, without installing a host software on the targetted device. This would have a large range of application, not jsut to type on the ImacWear M7

Note: MessageEase is indeed a good alternative. I'm training on it ...
[Ornate TrueSmart] lzwfkv:
I understand your point an I am with you, but unfortunately it is as it is.

If you look at the default Bluetooth profile that the watch uses to pair with other devices you will just find internet access tethering, so it is the only way you could use the watch for via Bluetooth. I also miss a full a2dp or a hands free bluetooth profile to get on the watch full media or phone audio from the paired devices. Unfortunately these services as well as keyboard/mouse are not available over Bluetooth on these devices and you will need to use another Bluetooth stack (bluez from some time ago?) or a custom implementation through an app for those Bluetooth services.

As for the keyboard I've tried several, including messageasy, the only one really usable that can replace the aosp KB with a medium learning curve is flit keyboard that I am actually using now. Indeed my quest for a good KB is going on and I am also appreciating minuum KB. Those are the two alternatives I have to choose between.
[Ornate TrueSmart] Holy Bear:
I just got my M7 as well, and can definitely confirm that call quality is miles beyond that of the Truesmart.

My Truesmart is effectively unusable for calling unless using a BT headset; the M7 is fine, with the only comment from callers being that it sounds a bit tinny, "am I on speakerphone or something" (which, ofcourse, they are).

All in all I am quite happy I took the chance and moved from the Truesmart to the M7.

Another user and I have bought this clone http://m.alibaba.com/product/60240808558/TOP-factory-3G-GPS-android-wifi.html for £84 ($130) including delivery, it's exactly the same as the imacwear M7 as far as I can tell, Android 4.4.2 and very good clear 3G calls.

Does any know how to check the Bluetooth version? I'm sure it's 4.0.
[Ornate TrueSmart] bernsbe:
Hi lzwfkv,

I've just had a test with:

An A2DP device, the Jabra BT3030 (ancestor of the Jabra Steet2)

A Bluetooth keyboard, that normally is a companion to the Acer Iconia W700

A Bluetooth mouse, the targus AMB02EU

It is possible to use all 3 at the same time.

To search for Bluetooth devices, from a standby state:

press top button to see the watch

swipe to see the homepage

swipe down from top edge to see eventual messages (the screen can be all black without message, with time on top right left side, provider on bottom and menu button on top left)

touch menu button

if Bluetooth chicklet is white, hit it once to activate Bluetooth, and it becomes blue

When Bluetooth chicklet is blue, long press it

You see that the M7 is visible to paired devices, and also a list of devices already known. (My M7 knows also a Jabra Easygo ear bud and a Samsung GT-P3110 tablet we have)

If you want to search from a Bluetooth device and find the M7, hit the words "only visible" and then search from the other device

With a mouse or a keyboard it's kind of difficult to initiate a search.

To search for Bluetooth devices from the M7

1) make sure that your Bluetooth device is discoverable (for my keyboard I had to keep its powerbutton pressed long, for the mouse, there is a connect button)

2) Now swipe from left edge to right, and a menu will appear to search for devices (and if you want, you can rename the phone there as well, for example)

3) Search for devices and hit the one you want to connect

4) follow connection instructions (For keyboard, I had to type a number sequence and hit enter, the sequence was shown on the M7 screen, For the mouse I had to type the mouse passcode on the M7, and I knew it's 0000)

5) Enjoy

So, if a developer builds a software that enables an old smartphone to act as a Bluetooth keyboard, it is possible to connect this to the M7 as a regular Bluetooth keyboard. Still looking for one. There was a project here on XDA that was doing what I'm looking for, but it's not available on the modern Android versions.

Adding another Bluetooth stack at first sight is not needed. It works fine from factory.

imacwear m7 or zgpax s8 ?

Hi there what one should I buy and can you download wacth faceshers ? Thanks and are play store working on them ? ;)
[Ornate TrueSmart] dabotsonline:
The iMacwear M7 is now down to around £75 from DX and the Gearbest EU Warehouse, and the M702 2nd Gen is £80 from Chinavasion.com where it is directly linked from the official website: http://www.imacwear.com/novel-wearable-brand-imacwear-showcased-in-new-yorks-times-square / http://www.prnewswire.com/news-rele...ased-in-new-yorks-times-square-300015595.html .

[MENTION=6860425]chedderbeef[/MENTION] , given the praise that the call quality of the iMacwear M7 has received (presumably running Android 4.2 rather than the 4.4.2 that yours shipped with), do you feel that it is better call quality than that of the ZGPAX S8? Also, how does antenna reception compare between the two, and compared to traditional phones?

Do you know what the Podoor Z004 is based on? It doesn't look like the ZGPAX S8, but looks similar to the Omate TrueSmart.

Does Pushbullet install on the ZGPAX S8? Does it install on the iMacwear M7 running Android 4.4.2? I would make heavy use of that app.
[Ornate TrueSmart] giri@nwrk.biz:
I successfully flashed the ZGPAX S8 rom on my Simvalley 414 go. Only thing that does not work are the sensors! I guess these two watches are pretty similar...
[Ornate TrueSmart] Lokifish Marz:
TS clone. Podoor is one of the brands I pointed out to Dan as alternative sources for firmware for the TS.
[Ornate TrueSmart] giri@nwrk.biz:
They have a new smartwatch (pw 308). Do you think this comes with real or fake 4.4?
[Ornate TrueSmart] bernsbe:
I did not try that before and just tried it a second ago.

The ZGPAX S8, when using play store to install pushbullet, already indicates "Your device isn't compatible with this version".

So, for short, the ZGPAX S8 cannot run pushbullet either, unfortunately.
[Ornate TrueSmart] Lokifish Marz:
It looks like legit 4.4.2. You have to keep in mind that most of these Chinese smartwatches violate GPL,and almost never security patch their firmware. So what ever security holes have been found since Dec 2013, and there's a number of them, are most likely still there. Also any major firmware issues tend to go unfixed as they rare ever have any intention of fixing them in the first place.
[Ornate TrueSmart] giri@nwrk.biz:
Yeah thats an good point! On the other hand, I never got any update for my AW 414 and the gpl source Simvalley/Pearl released is unusable crap... (but they never claimed to provide updates, so i can't complain.)

Do you think sensors will work on an omate ts with the kernel from the pw 308? I think they will not work.... I guess without an working 4.4 kernel source tree there is nothing that can be done to make the sensors work.
[Ornate TrueSmart] bernsbe:
I have been in direct contact with Podoor in March 2015, right before I decided for the ImacWear M7, as I was eventually planning to buy the PW306II.

The contact person informed me that they were working on a new 4.4 watch.

I've noticed that the charger cradle for the PW308 has a lock and think that this might be a big improvement to keep the watch alive longer

Here is the direct link to the Podoor manufactory.

truesmart / imacwear / zgpax BT problems with SWAPPlink

Hi,

Does anyone have experience of using SWAPPLink or notisync with a smartwatch and a Galaxy (I have an S4 mini). I want a SW with WiFi, an indie SIM card but also the ability to tether to my phone. I undestand the apps above should allow BT tethering of the "companion" watch to the "master" phone and so take calls, SMS, whatsapp & viber notifications.

However, having tries 2 ZGPAX S8's (Android 4.4 I think) and now an Imacwear M7 (Android 4.2.2) and though I can pair, no matter how much I fiddle (turn Wifi off, reset bluetooth, disable/enable tethering, disable/enable internet sharing) I can only seem to actually "connect" the 2 devices properly for a fraction of a second. Notisync explicitly tells me of an issue with Android 4.2 and asks if I want to schedule BT reset, however, it doesn't help.

Can someone give me an idea of whether it is me missing something, needing to update the OS (if poss) or whether there is a better (budget/imposter) SW option? I see the new OMATE Trusmart Plus is running 5.1 but don't know whether that will be better; and if so I guess IMACWEAR will be releasing their own version in due course.

Thanks in advance for your input!

[Ornate TrueSmart] Slicster:
GPS? MapMyFitness? Spotify?

Hey guys,

I'm thinking of buying the iMacWear M7(maybe the new M8) watch but I have a few questions that perhaps you can answer?

1. Does the GPS work without a SIM or is it assisted GPS only?

2. Is the GPS accurate?

3. I saw someone mention Runkeeper but I'm wondering if MapMyFitness app would work since the screen is quite small?

4. Does Spotify app work? I'm planning to use the app and put my playlists offline for running so wondering if the app at least works?

If anyone would be kind enough to let me know if these work or even test them, I would be very thankful.

Thanks.

---------- Post added at 10:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:53 AM ----------

I also found this watch but would like your opinions. Some of the comments on the review show that there many be GPS issues but I'm guessing it might be because it's Assisted-GPS that only works well with SIM.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] NiffStipples:
Hey guys,

unfortunately i think i bricked my prime :(

Today i flashed crombi-kk rom which worked flawlessly fine. I came from HairyBean 2.31 so all i did was to up update my TWRP via fastboot and then flash the rom. As said, that worked fine. After my first boot of the rom i thought that i would like to test the "F2FS" option. For this i updated TWRP to v2.8 via the zip-file from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2772093 . This also worked and i've got my TWRP to the new version.

Now i wanted to format the /data partition to F2FS so i went to

Wipe>>Advanced Wipe>>Choose Data>>Repair or Change File System>>Change File System>>F2FS

At this time it told me that it can't UNmount the partition and therefore it couldn't change the file-system.

Dumb as i am i thought: "Okay, then why don't just unmount the partition" so i did this (Mount>>Disabled "Data") an then retried to format the data partition with f2fs. During this process i have to assume that something went wrong? It gave me some error which i fool can't remember.

From this point i couldn't access the /data partition anymore, i can't mount it nor can i boot into Android.

I still have access to TWRP and can get to fastboot access. I have no ADB Access in TWRP - it just can't recognize the prime. In Windows-Hardware Manager it just says: Transformer?! (i have universal naked driver installed)

Forget the last sentence - it seems that my USB-Cable is partly broken. Sometimes it recognizes the prime and sometimes not!

Is it gone forever or is there still hope to recover it? :(

Hopefully someone can help me, i'm really desperate

P.S.: D didn't want to make things worse, so i stopped messing around with it - would it help to reflash the ne0zone75_tf300t.blob file? Is this even possible if i already updated the TWRP to a newer version?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] das chaos:
As long as this is the fact, we don' t call it 'bricked'.

Try following one after another:

1. TWRP>>Wipe>>Advanced>>[check / data]>>repair file system, flash ROM again.

2. Fastboot:

fastboot -i 0x0b05 erase userdata

- then flash ROM again.

3. Last ressort: Flash stock ROM and start from scratch.

... hope you've pulled your nvflash files. Good luck!

... you might also want to flash another TWRP, though ne0zone75's normally works well. Try the official 2.8.3.0 (for tf300t because you are on Hairy Bean), works good with my prime.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] NiffStipples:
Thanks a lot for your reply :)

I've tried the steps you provided:

1) While repairing the data partition it said again that it can't mount the data partition. (Picture of it in the attachment)

2) Reflasing the rom worked okay but as expected it couldn't boot (stuck in bootscreen) - in TWRP the /data partiton was again unmountable :(

3) erasing the userdata via fastboot gave me the following:

erasing 'userdata'...
FAILED (command write failed (Invalid argument))
finished. total time: 0.002s

At this time i didn't tried to reflash the rom because i don't think it would change anything?!

4) i only have the old nvflash files from ages ago when i started flashing with androwook - i fear they are the wrong ones? I don't have any clue what to do with these - are there good instructions to get the tab back to it's factory state?

Last but not least - do you have a link for the right TWRP you're talking about. I don't want to gave the wrong one a try ;)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] das chaos:
Sounds as if partition table is faulty.

1. You could try to redo the Hairy Bean procedure.

2. If you feel lucky, then you could try to format partition manually using

mkfs.ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p8

nvflash files don't grow sour; you could try without changing to wheelie your blob.bin. If it works, you are safe and can continue with the other blobs.

Best instruction you find here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1894867

I have actually the (official) one from http://www.techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/tf300t

Good Luck!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] NiffStipples:
Okay, now i know why they always say that flashing is nothing for noobs ;)

I'm a little bit confused - what (in your opinion) is the best shot i should give a try?

Formatting manually (from where? In TWRP or via adb? I'm on Windows)

Reflash everything with NVFLASH (is that possible without any hassle - the NVFLASH files are from ICS-times and i'm on JB/KK?!)

I know it's annoying to help someone who doesn't know what he's doing - hope you have time to get me through this flashing nightmare :/
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] das chaos:
Everybody starts as a noob.

I would first do that manually from TWRP>>Advanced>>Terminal Command>>Select Folder (root)>>type in: mkfs.ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p8

Important is, that blob.bin works with

wheelie.exe -r --blob blob.bin

After that you should flash 'bricksafeTF201.img' and 'unlock-token-TF201'. Then you can flash any blobs of unblobbed ROMs you can find in the internet or flash stock ROM (JB). Then proceed to fastboot custom recovery and zipflash custom ROM.

I went through any misstep you can think of with the three of 'em: TF201, TF300T, TF700T.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] NiffStipples:
Mmmmh, the command

mkfs.ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p8

gives me back:

mkfs.ext4: not found
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] das chaos:
Oops! My bad, try

make_ext4fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p8

.

.... for information's sake type

fdisk -l /dev/block/mmcblk0p8

You should get

Disk /dev/block/mmcblk0p8: 29.6 GB, 29618601984 bytes

Units = cylinders of 64 * 512 = 32768 bytes
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] NiffStipples:
Hooray! :victory: Thanks a lot - everything is back where it belongs ;)

Just for the learning effect - do you have any idea what did go wrong in my case and how would i correctly change the format of the data partition to f2fs? I think i've read a lot of times that this would improve rom speeds a lot?!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] das chaos:
Congrats!

If you would care to tell what you did last, one could make a guess, what went wrong.

... and yes, changing /data (only!) to f2fs makes a tremendous difference in speed. Normally TWRP complies the job without probs. What TWRP do you have now?

I prefer [MENTION=5280400]ne0zone75[/MENTION]'s which I linked some posts before. They work on all my tabs.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] NiffStipples:
I have installed v2.8.3.0 from the site you gave me above

Mh, as said in the first post i did the following steps to change the format

I tried Wipe>>Advanced Wipe>>Checked "Data">>Repair or Change File System>>Change File System>>Choose F2FS

Then the system gave me an error that it couldn't access the partition because it was mounted or couldn't be unmounted or something like this

So i went back to Mount>>unchecked "Data"

And then again to Advanced Wipe>>...>>Change File System>>F2FS

After that something went wrong because after that step i couldn't mount the data partition anymore?!
