This is true. Which is why no one pays attention to the scores. It has no bearing on how a device runs day to day.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ProBlast:
Hello developers! I have run into a little problem with my Lenovo A6000 plus, which is currently running Lollipop 5.1.1. Mokee Custom Rom. I had flashed TWRP 2.8.6.0. on my device, and it was working a few days ago. However, I am not being able to boot into recovery mode or download mode now. Whenever I input the correct button combinations for the respective modes, the screen simply lights up, shows the 'lenovo' logo, and stays stuck like that all day long lest I pull the battery out and try again. I am able to boot into the normal mode without any difficulties. I have tested all my buttons, and they are functional during the normal mode. The app Flashify says that I have TWRP recovery 2.8.6.0 installed. Please, can anyone give me some insight on this? Thank you.

This thread is intended for those owning or looking to buy a smartwatch with full Android 4.4 that uses the MTK 6572 SoC.

Those that own such a watch, can post the apps they have success with and only those.

Please dont post questions : e.g. "Does this app work? " or "Can someone try this app?" . These questions can be asked in the respective watch thread. This will allow for users to search this thread and find valid information easily without going through 100 of pages with questions.

I highly recommend that each post will use the following format:

"App(s) Name(s) :

You have to allow notifications in Permits Manager

Been downloading a few apps today. Amazed that street view works on google maps. Absolutely brilliant!

Shazam also works very well, as does Spotify. I downloaded google calendar but it created a duplicate of the stock calendar app so there must be an issue there. I uninstalled it but still have two calendar app icons that both open to the stock verison. Is there anyway to add more of the system features back onto this watch to manage apps or am I missing this in the existing settings.

I will hopefully download more. I see this watch being very beneficial travelling so am hoping to give google translate a try.
[Other SmartWatches] caltomoto:
Anyone have a good calculator app?
[Other SmartWatches] smartwatchticks:
To install the Google Calendar you MUST first disable the stock calendar. You need to install the app Settings Search to get to the normal App Manager where you can disable it. Then when you install Google Calendar it will work. Without this step, the Google Calendar is masked by the default one by the same name.

I've got a whole series of videos on essential or core apps, as well as many others for both the ZGPAX S8 and the No.1 D5 over on YouTube:

http://YouTube.com/smartwatchticks

Two things viewers are constantly asking about, and you help/experience with apps to address these concerns would be greatly appreciated:

1. Making these standalone watches act like tethering watches, particularly to call and talk from the watch using a BT link to a cell phone, read and reply to SMS/MMS messages, read and reply to social media apps (whatsapp, Facebook, twitter, etc.), and antiloss as the Chinese like to call it, to rent/vibrate when BT connection is broken.

2. Fitness apps support, particularly tracking workout info including linking to heart rate monitor data (D5 class watches), pulling in pedometer info, and logged tracking route info from onboard GPS without needing data link (for later upload to phone/computer/cloud when link is reacquired).
[Other SmartWatches] melcrose:
I bought this to replace my cellphone, but it constantly looses connection to my provider, so no go there.

Can someone tell me what I'd keep this watch?

I have a pebble time: with it I can respond to texts via voice instantly and perfectly

I can accept / reject cell phone calls with a press of the button and route them to my BT headset

I can track sleep / fitness data and send it to misfit

I can control my music player with music boss so with one tap I can change songs / etc.

I have one-week plus battery life.

THIS NOT NOT AN ENDORSEMENT of the pebble, I'm just saying that the pebble is one super functional smart watch.

with my NO.1 D5 I can..

Look at some AMAzing watch-faces.

Duplicate quite a bit of what my cell phone does, but not so much that I can live without my cell.

(???)

Recharge it nightly.

So, what I'm asking is: why would I ditch my pebble time for this?

I'd seriously like to know, this isn't troll bait. I think it's an amazing piece of tech and if the cell worked properly I'd be in love. Since it doesn't, I'm in absolute indifference. :)
[Other SmartWatches] pablo11:
Firstly - my apologies for going off topic here but:

You've been all across these threads now saying the same thing. You are the only person suffering from "cellular drop outs" that cannot be explained.

If you still have this issue and you have tried stock and custom firmware and your provider is on one of the supported cell base-bands - why don't you RMA the watch?

Haven't seen anyone with the same issue as you.

There are some whose provider band is unsupported and they have used a method to get around their problem.

There are some who have APN issues and there is a work-around for this as well.

I have 3 of these watches (a D5, a K8 Mini and a K8 round) which I have used in several different countries and with different service providers - all without issue.

My watch lasts at least a day and a half without charging and I use it as a phone and send texts etc etc...

I guess I'm wondering why you even bother with it?
[Other SmartWatches] melcrose:
In another thread someone said that it was a known issue with the watch. . that's why I didn't RMA it. I have tried custom firmware (on loki-marz 1.2) with same issue. Yes, my cellular provider does match band-wise.

If I was sure it wasn't a "known issue" I would RMA it, but I was led to believe that a replacement wouldn't help.

That is why I asked this question: if it doesn't do that.. and honestly, even if it does.. .. what else can I do with it?
[Other SmartWatches] pablo11:
Have a look in the K8 Round watch thread. If it's a known issue I haven't heard about it but there were people in there who found a workaround for unsupported carriers.

Have you flashed the K9 stock rom ?

If it doesn't work on that and you have tried Loki's rom (you need to manually make sure the APN is correct) then you definitely have a hardware issue and should RMA it.
[Other SmartWatches] melcrose:
Thanks much! No, haven't flashed K9 stock, will do.

Yep, manually checked APN is correct as is on Loki's rom, so will check K9 stock.
[Other SmartWatches] giol:
I added your youtube link to the second post. Excellent job there, thank you.

I also added some comments on sports apps and fitness tracking. I use the k8 (and previously the zgpax s8) extensively for fitness apps and tracking my runs. Main problems i have encountered are :

- gps not up to garmin standards. Stay out of canyons or use a bluetooth gps receiver if you want to track under shade.

- battery wont last much if you run with all sensors on- screen on and music playing (roughly over an hour). But if the screen is off you will get a half marathon and then some.

- Pedometer info is as accurate as needed but not really useful if you are serious about your training. You can use google fit to track steps. It uses the same sensors but probably slightly different algorithm.

- On board heart rate seems hopeless at this point for training. Few companies have achieved good results with optical hrm during sports (MIO and Valenciel -Scosche).
[Other SmartWatches] pablo11:
You can do this as long as your watch is not the K8 regular round.

It's fine for D5, K8 mini or K9...
[Other SmartWatches] dmfalk:
Apps for round watchs

Many radio apps work on D5. (Do not use CBS's Radio.com app! It does not work!)

CBC radio app works, but doesnt easily allow selection of all four channels.

Haven't tested too many IPTV apps, but one Chinese IPTV app, TV Plus, functions nicely.

I guess like many, I'd love to see more standalone (not Wear) apps specifically designed for use on round screens like the D5.

d.m.f.
[Other SmartWatches] ditotay:

Features are:

- Always On heart rate monitoring

- defining intervals and duration of heart rate monitoring

- turn heart rate sensor on/off

- read the sensordata from your watchface

Knowing Bug:

I think the app should build the mean of the heartrate over time to improve the current value. Actually it's a little bit volatile.

More feature will come.

Watch Droid Assistant

Some time ago I bought a smartwatch with Android and I was not satisfied with the applications that I found to handle it, for that reason believes:

Watch Droid Assistant - (Smartwatch version.)

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lumaticsoft.watchdroidassistant

Watch Droid Phone - (Phone version.)

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lumaticsoft.watchdroidphone

Both use bluetooth directly to communicate.

The applications are under test and may have errors, if so do not stop contacting me I will try to solve them as soon as possible.

I clarify that the English is not my native language so I passed the application by a translator, for aids in the translation since already they are grateful.

Connect your Android watch to your phone so you can receive notifications of your selected applications, incoming call information, make a call, manage music playback, turn up or down volume, and more.

Notifications:

After giving permission to manage the notifications of the phone and select the applications you want to control you can respond the same from the watch.

In the options of the application of the phone you will have the possibility to modify your predefined answers, to eliminate or to add.

If the notification has the possibility of being answered the button will appear to be able to select one of your predetermined answers or the possibility of doing it by keyboard.

Call

When you enter a call to your phone the watch shows you the data of the call, with the possibility of rejecting it.

After setting the fast call buttons, from the watch you can dial the number for a call from your phone in the following ways:

* Select the configured contact.

* Dial a number with a keyboard.

* Select a watch contact and dial the number.

Music:

In the music option you can:

* Open the default player on your phone.

* Skip the theme, pause or play it.

* Raise or lower the multimedia volume of the phone.

Well, if it was that simple I wouldn't be here asking. ;)

My device has worked for months until it suddenly stopped connecting to both Bluetooth and GPRS. I did everything I knew of, including hard-resets and reconfiguring GPRS from scratch, as well as spending some time with T-Mobile's tech support... We in the end concluded that the phone is faulty.

Now I've got a TyTN II and it works fine with the same settings.
