I figured out lot of things recently in i95. Like to change or completely lock to one watchface. Even you can easily create your own. I managed to get internet enabled always on. I think I can change boot animation too. I fixed crashes on some application. But still I can't get device rooted.
[Other SmartWatches] workermad:
Hi, well that sound nice! and now i have some questions

¿how u doo for have the internet always enable?

¿what tool u use for change faces?

¿or u just remplace the already existing files whit new images in the watch?

about the root situation i recive it whit the firmware x3-20150909_1215 and was already rooted .... buuuuut i find a tool that almost sure goin to root the I95 device. i put the file on dropbox folder ... the file is called "android_root.exe" and the soft is from Kingo ROOT, kaspersky says is clean and ididnt see any evil process on the file... i put some other apps even the itools try both i dont remeber witch one is the correct. . its made for root chinnesse devices and seems that works on the I95, i hope it works for u.

about crashes...well my theme app works perfect the first day now i cant open it cuz crash all time. at least im not stuck whit the iOS theme and icons XD.

anyone is able to use the play store yet? the OK google voice commands? the google services or at least the account services (need it for some apps to work)

i try to use the files in this post for play store but never works for me and i have follow all steps... and nothing... and about how to continue on screens when u dont see anithing cuz dont fit the screen , maybe there is any command for put on a macro that FORCE "push the CONTINUE" or somthing like that but i idnt find any way yet... somthing like push continue when i keep the finger press on screen... or just somthing that scale the image on screen and show u all content but sound dificult...another solution maybe is whit the SDK tools for android but i have no idea how to use XD... if i find anithing really interesting i will share whit all u guys. we need to improve this watch all we can : )

again sorry for long post and my writing mistakes.

EDITED... i cant put links cuz im new in here so maybe in some days after more writing i can post the link but whit the names u can find on google.... :(
[Other SmartWatches] mahnameisjaime1:
wow those are 3 things that have been making me doubt this watch. keep messing with it, hope to see a guide on some of these things soon :)
[Other SmartWatches] Unclocker:
Hi workermad,

First I want ask you to pull folders from your i95 using adb: /system/app, /system/bin, /system/lib, /system/xbin and upload them to your dropbox. It will help me to figure out why I don't have root privileges. I tried many one-click root methods (Kingo root too) and all failed.

To change watch faces simply use your favourite android file manager and go to \system\clocks\clock_square. With root you will be able to change them without problem. You can add new folders like clock13, clock14, clock15 etc. with new watchface content. Graphics are in png files. XML files contains data like file names, colors and positions. It's nothing complicated (you can use one of them as template). Changes will appear after watch's reboot. To lock with one watchface simply put your favorite data to clock1 folder and delete the rest of the folders.

You can send me your dropbox url (to archive containing files from your system folder) by private message. I can repost url in this topic. To encourage you I will write more tricks after that.

By the way If suunnittelija share her files from system's folder I think we will be able to launch Google Play too.

Cheers

1. Were you able to figure out how to load the google play store on the watch

2. How is the speakerphone for phone calls. Is it plenty enough loud, as most of the speakers on these watches are so weak for phone calls
[Other SmartWatches] mahnameisjaime1:
any way to disable or change the app that shows up when you swipe right on the clock face? the sun dial thing isnt that helpful and id rather disable it or set it to something else.
[Other SmartWatches] Unclocker:
1. I don't have root yet, so I did not try install gapps.

2. Is loud, but I not tested yet in crowd or in car with music.
[Other SmartWatches] Srwilliams:
Thanks Unlocker for the quick reply.

But in following this thread it seems the firmware and trying to get the apps, along with the google store working is a big headache for those who are technically sophisticated
[Other SmartWatches] grm11009:
I want to warn you to be carefully with the charger, it has broken the first day of use when removing the cable.

Although I have already reclaimed to gearbest, somebody know where to buy new one?, I have not seen yet anywhere for sale, and I do not know if it is possible.

Thanks
[Other SmartWatches] mahnameisjaime1:
how/where did it break? pictures?
[Other SmartWatches] Unclocker:
If you get charging clip to fall apart is easy to put it together. I done this many times. Be careful no to broke any plastic hinges.

mahnameisjaime1 send me his first custom watch face to test, but he has to work on it more.
[Other SmartWatches] mahnameisjaime1:
thanks :) anyone else want to test it? i think im only off by a few pixels now. watch faces go in this directory \system\clocks\clock_square

i dont have my watch yet so im just messing around for now. send me a pm with the results :)
[Other SmartWatches] grm11009:
The conector is broken, it not has a easy solution, I tried to repair but I coul not do. I have request a new one to gearbest opening a ticket, I will keep you informed
[Other SmartWatches] mahnameisjaime1:
yikes! from now on i guess leave it plugged in, guess the connectors arent as high quality as you'd expect from china, hopefully you get it fixed soon!
[Other SmartWatches] grm11009:
I have good news for me, gearbest reply my ticket and they will send a new charger, :victory:

This is the reply:

"Thanks for your message.

Sorry for replying late.

We can send you a new charger in this case.

Please feel free to contact us anytime.

We will always be here for your service.

[Other SmartWatches] mahnameisjaime1:
wow thats lucky, i wonder where they get the extra charger from though, they cant pull it from some other box, so do they get it from the actual manufacturer of the watch? maybe they will sell them separately cuz i would like an extra charger to take with me places.

gesture or voice wake up feature

Can someone tell me how to enable the gesture or voice wake up feature.

I can't get those options to work.

I just got the watch.
[Other SmartWatches] soulclaimed:
Try pushing all in one gestures works well on k8
[Other SmartWatches] dion13:
Will return

I will probably try to return my watch. It is not a finished product. Need more development.

Can't get anything to work.

no gesture wake, no notifications pushed, no weather, constantly disconnects from BT.
[Other SmartWatches] dunlopr:
Absolutely!

Totally agree.
[Other SmartWatches] KFlexx:
Hi guys.

Sorry if I sound silly, I just received my watch i95 and I wanna know how to push apps with adb.

I alrady install adb on my pc but I keep getting

C:\Users\brbri>adb devices

'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

operable program or batch file.

Can someone please help me. Is there a way to root the device because someone inthis tread I dont remimber the name but thums up for him. He provided a link to download a more recent rom for the i95. I'm new to the adb stuf.

I already managed to download Super Sser but what I'm rendering is how to force the watch to go on recovery mode.

[MENTION=3797186]suunnittelija[/MENTION]

How did you manage the Smartwatch app on the phone to not crash at scanning the QR-code from the watch. I am unable to do the binding process, thus rendering the watch useless.

Thanks in advance.
[Other SmartWatches] KFlexx:
On the main screen, from the top, just scroll down the you will see a cloud. click on the cloud the there will be a new QR code to scan with your phone.

---------- Post added at 07:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:47 PM ----------

How did you manage to have adb to work. From my end, it<s not working. on my device manager, it detected the watch as a google nexus device and when I type adb devices, I got this message: 'adb' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

operable program or batch file.

Is there a specific driver I can install for. My computer is running Windows 10.
[Other SmartWatches] MrJW:
Thanks KFlexx, that solved the issue. My watch and phone are bond now.

Although it makes sense you need another QR-code to bind the watch to the phone the developer could make the app more friendly in just telling instead of plain FC.

When you get a message like this in your command (cmd) window it tells you it cannot find the adb executable.

What you need to do is either:

- Go to the directory where the adb.exe file is located (search for it from the explorer or do a dir /s adb.exe in the root of your partition in a command window)

- Search for the adb.exe (see above) and add the path to your PATH variable (see here superuser.com/questions/949560/how-do-i-set-system-environment-variables-in-windows-10) *

By using the second suggestion you can run the command from every directory.

* Sorry for the link being not click able. I do not yet have made enough post to be allowed to add external links in my posts.

How to root I95

Thanks for your help. Using your guidelines I installed on my watch some aplication including Play store, dolphin browser, es file explorer. But all this I installed in system so now I cant it uninstall. Did anyone of you know how to root

I95 smartwatch. Only ES file explorer work without problems, other programs blocked.
[Other SmartWatches] dsjohnny:
Hi there,

Has anyone success to sync the I95 smartwatch with a phone on android 6 ?

I tried with several phone and watchmanager fail to sync when I try with my android 6 Nexus 5.

Thanks,

Unable to install ADB

Hi,

I also have a i95.

I trying to install adb driver but the pc doesn't detect it. I activated debugging o the watch. what options on the debugging do you have activated?

Also do you have to install google usb driver?

Thanks for your help.
[Other SmartWatches] KFlexx:
I manages to install the play store, busybox, SuperUser, esFiles manager and Root Explorer, PlayStore keep closing but esfiles explorer run fine but Root explorer tell me the device is not root. Anyone have an idea how to root the device

---------- Post added at 04:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:28 PM ----------

Thanks bro.

Now I can use adb to push app to the watch.
[Other SmartWatches] KFlexx:
Hi,

I have an Ingenic I95 smart watch. The specs are pretty nice but the Android version is kind of laggy. I wonder if it's possible to create a custom Android wear from source. I already download the kernel from Ingenic website and I'm in the process to download the requirement tool from android.com website.

The reason that push me so is the watch manager from Ingenic is useless and unable to install anything from a smartphone plus the Android version lag.

If someone is on the same situation as me, we can team up to build the rom.
[Other SmartWatches] argos_59:
I 've installed some app with adb, using instruction find in this thread, but all became system app. How can I install app like a user app with adb. Thanks
[Other SmartWatches] Baranoid:
The watch is rooted out of the box. You can log in adb shell, remount partition as writable and do whatever you want.

If you manage to install Android Wear it will be great!
[Other SmartWatches] KFlexx:
The device don't need to be root to use adb.
[Other SmartWatches] Unclocker:
I have good news. I found a place where there are published new firmware udpates to our watch.

Lastest version: x3-20151119_1404

Link to download: OTA firmware

Changelog (old for ver x3-20151020_1130): "The update includes: Added multilanguage support, increase local setting time and date function, power button key policy adjustment"
[Other SmartWatches] Baranoid:
How to install the new firmware?
[Other SmartWatches] KFlexx:
I guess, we have to force the watch to boot into recovery mode but the only issue is there is no way yet to root it onless you use adb to boot into recovery. That i have no clue how to do it. I even try to adb push su, busybox and Superuser but unsuccessful. The only thing is when I use adb, I manage to get root privilege but that's it.
[Other SmartWatches] KFlexx:
Hey guys.

Just finded a way to bootvthe watch into recovery.

I will try it later.

When we use adb command, we simply have to make sure we have root privilege by typing su then to reboot recovery we type: adb reboot recovery.

The only thing is to find a recovery program like cf-recovery or twz-recovery for the watch screen size. Then we will be able to flash the update rom.
[Other SmartWatches] GetterOne:
How did you get the Bluetooth tethering working for the internet connection? My galaxy s5 wont allow it to tether for some reason.
[Other SmartWatches] KFlexx:
Please tell me how you got the internet to work?

I installed twrpmanager.apk on my watch but in order to install the image, it need an internet connection. If I can have it to work, it may unlock the boot loader and root the watch.
[Other SmartWatches] GetterOne:
How it is "supposed to work" is you turn on Bluetooth tethering on your phone first then go into your watch's Bluetooth setting and there should be a new option to tether.
[Other SmartWatches] MrJW:
I guess the reason as to why most applications do not have a working network connection is that they do not try if there is only Bluetooth available. If there is a way of faking a Cellular, Wi-Fi or perhaps an Ethernet connection and using Bluetooth to handle the network request those applications may just do fine. Having only working internet access with the awkward browser does not really do it, although it proofs that internet works.

Unfortunately root access, XPosed and XPosed module Fake Wifi Connection are not working as far as I know.
[Other SmartWatches] mahnameisjaime1:
So i finally decided to order this watch from gearbest. with coupon(GBI95MA) and insurance it came out to $75. as soon as i get it i can start pumping out a few watch faces too.

Flash tool

Where did you get this link?
[Other SmartWatches] KFlexx:
Unable to root the watch even with the bluetooth internet. I guess everything I have to root an Android device is base on Arm processor that's means it wont work for MIPS processor. Now back to square one. The other solution is to unlock the bootloader but when I try the command: fastboot unlock bootloader

Nothing happend. I know with fastboot, we can install a rom. A .zip file. I guess, probably I'm using Windows 10 64bit the compatibility mode don't work well.

Can someone post the AmazingThemes from the: /system/app folder. I deleted mine by mistake and now, I have multiple caculator app instead of applications.
[Other SmartWatches] GetterOne:
Just pull what you need from the firmware file on page 11
[Other SmartWatches] Elfix:
Hello World. i try now one week to get fastboot access on my watch. Nothing works. Pls give my a hint how can i update the Firmware for my Watch. Adb works fine and the Usb-Cloner software works also. But when i use this Programm , nothing start. i thing the Watch have not a bootloader Mode. i`m very thankfull for an answer. (i now my english is ****, sorry )
[Other SmartWatches] mfabrykowska:
I'm still trying to upgrade my watch. It seems that this crappy USB Cloner software needs a 32 bit system. I've tried to flash newer version on Windows 10 including Win7 compatibility mode and on Kubuntu 15.10 - no luck as all my systems are 64 bit (application starts but it doesn't do anything). WinXP 32 bit is probably too old (I was unable to install the driver). I don't know why, but Google Play doesn't work (immediate crash after launch). I've installed Amazon Market instead and it works just fine. My build number is x3-20150925_1509, I've bought the watch from GearBest. As for now I have no Facebook and Gmail notifications.
[Other SmartWatches] GetterOne:
Yeah, I was trying to using use there burning/clone software as well, but I too have only have 64bit system while I'm on vacation. I have a win7 32bit that I will try it on later. I've found lollipop beta but can't flash it. Using

Droid Explore

lets me boot into the recovery mode after flashing a rom but the controls don't function like they say. I found that some of the Chinese rooting software will reflash it and I was able to change my firmware version. The problem is I am not able to read mandarin :silly:

I'm am using the lolipop's manager with the watch and it seems very stable with Bluetooth. This only thing is the update function crashes when I try to use it. Also, found the watch might indeed have built in wifi but isn't enabled in 4.3. Think it being MIPs and not Arm is part of the problem with finding flash tools that will work.
[Other SmartWatches] KFlexx:
Happy New Year Guys.

Hey GetterOne, can you provide the tool that let you flash lolipop to your watch. I guess all of us are dying to update the watch firmware.
[Other SmartWatches] mahnameisjaime1:
received watch from gearbest today. i ordered a black one and got a gold one instead. check the page and it says they're sold out of black, and the sku number is the same for all colors. opened up a ticket but i hope i get the black one sent to me soon :/
[Other SmartWatches] gangpe:
Same here! A bit irked about the whole GB experience (ordered a different watch that was out of stock, then waited a month for this one to come in). Let me know how your customer service experience goes...

---------- Post added at 04:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:59 PM ----------

Read earlier today that anything below gear 5 does not have WiFi built in. Starting with android gear 5, they enabled WiFi for units that have the hw. Will try to find/attach the link.
[Other SmartWatches] GetterOne:
Sorry for the misunderstanding but I have the lolipop beta but I am unable to successfully flash it. I am just using the watch manger from the beta. The softerware I used was deDOTcodeplexDOTcom after you flash the image it will take you into recovery mode. To be clear the recovery mode isn't working for me.
[Other SmartWatches] mahnameisjaime1:
sucks that even if i do get the correct one, ill have to wait forever to get it. im fairly upset. wanted the watch before i start the semester but looks like thats not going to happen. we'll see. ill update here how the gearbest customer service is.
[Other SmartWatches] GetterOne:
The black watch isn't really black it is more of dark chocolate bronze. Good luck on trying to match the color if you decide to upgrade the band.
[Other SmartWatches] mahnameisjaime1:
post #20 on page 2 of this thread has pictures of a real black watch though.

here was gear best reply:

so i think what they're saying is that the "golden+metal band" is a gold watch that comes with a metal band and the "black + genuine leather band" (the option i ordered) is a gold watch that comes with a leather band. . . . that's is ridiculous.
[Other SmartWatches] GetterOne:
I have black the watch and in dark lighting it looks black in but it is translucent a with brown background.
[Other SmartWatches] gangpe:
Got the same response. I sent them pictures of the box, clearly marked with the gold option checked. I also sent a pic of the actual watch, which is yellow/gold. Will wait to see what they say...

*Update* they said they shipped out the right one again (even though their site said black/leather). I am getting a bit tired of this (I even sent them a picture of what the black watch SHOULD look like), so I asked them for the shipping address. Never thought it would be this much of a hassle. Guess next time it's Ali express. ..
[Other SmartWatches] mahnameisjaime1:
i havent gotten a reply since the first one. i did the same thing as you too, sent them a picture of the black watch with a leather strap. i dont understand your post though. so they're sending you another one but you asked them for a shipping address? are you having to return the first one? will i have to return this watch before i get the new one sent to me? but yeah, i wanted to give gearbest the benefit of the doubt but next time ill be going with just ebay. it was $30 more expensive but at least i would have had more security in getting the correct item.

update:

uh oh... i uh, i haven't touched the watch since i got it, i opened the box, was disappointing and then put it back and into a drawer. turned it on today just to see what it was actually like and went straight to the settings app and then boom, black screen.... i dont know what happened but rebooting does not fix anything.... crap. any help?
[Other SmartWatches] GetterOne:
The only thing I can think of without reflashing is let the watch battery die then hope a cold boot fixes everything. If you decide to taking it apart, please post pics.
[Other SmartWatches] mahnameisjaime1:
yup been trying to train the battery. but yeah if i dont have to send it back or anything, i wanna open it up.

update:

so ive left it on for 6 days now, havent charged it, some nights i connect to it via bluetooth and it still has not died! i mean i really shouldnt be complaining about battery life but dang 6 days and it hasnt died yet....

but i did get a reply from gearbest, i told them that the watch went to a black screen and requested a refund or a replacement watch in the silver color. they said they would email me back in about 3 days, that was about 3 days ago... so im still waiting.
[Other SmartWatches] Really Need Help:
Where can I get a replacement charging clip from
[Other SmartWatches] GetterOne:
I figured out how to flash the i95. The button combo for recovery mode is either disabled or to hard to time right. The adb command line is the only real option. (Assuming you have root access)

I'm now running x3-20151225_1449

Page 11 has the link to the latest ota firmware

Upload the update.zip to the i95

adb push "c:\update.zip" "/data/media/update.zip"

Flash the i95 steps

1. adb remount

2. adb shell "echo 'boot-recovery ' > /cache/recovery/command"

3. adb shell "echo '--update_package=/data/media/update.zip' >> /cache/recovery/command"

4. adb shell "reboot recovery"
