Deodexed?
[Other SmartWatches] nobby_nobody:
For all the interested here, I had a lot of problems trying to install the English Sinwear app, so you can find it attached here; So far, I can extend the battery life for about a day and a half, the build I have is Z9-KY-V06 and I noticed something weird, sometimes, when I'm using the watch the screen turns off by itself and I have to reboot the watch to use it normally again; Being a Chinese watch I was expecting a very low quality hardware but all the contrary, the HW is really good, the big failure it's the software actually, the watch ROM and the mobile app are just crappy, looking at the code for the mobile app I can see it is a one shot product, nothing more. Just my opinion.
[Other SmartWatches] kayzai:
I also have this watch.

The hardware is impressive for what i expected to be a cheap Chinese Android watch.

Issues:

The Heart rate monitor is really weak.

The battery lasts about 8-10 hours even with minimal use.

Selection of watch faces is very poor.

The camera is a waste of space and unnecessary.

Steps made to improve battery life:

Installed Purify - Auto closes unused background apps.

Installed Automate - To automatically switch flight mode on/off at night.

Changed cellular network from 3g to 2g.

Turned off Pedometer and the gesture to turn screen on.

Anyone know how to root this thing? I tried kingroot with no luck.

I would also like to be able to tone down the intensity vibration alerts.
[Other SmartWatches] artyfarty:
I don't know how to root, in dev options you can select "unlock bootloader" but supersu app ask some missed root files. Maybe you can try with root genius.

I think that is RIDICOLOUS that a smartwatch with 480mah battery don't work for at least 24 hours. my use, for some days, was near to zero, 5 mins screen on, bluetooth, gps, heart rate, screen on on shake, ALL OFF, afetr 8 hours the watch is dead with 0% battery, even battery on system was at 50/60%.

I asked to gbest to refund me. I wait reply from manufacturer.
[Other SmartWatches] split52:
today with gps with my suzuki, about 15 minuts, gps ridicolous, fail, fail, turn left,,turn right, all time, and battery drain, this watch is only for holidays use:(
[Other SmartWatches] Maastodonte:
By reading your comments I think this watch is not a good all in one smartwatchphone, but in my opinion and based on my everyday use since more than 2 weeks it can be a good, reliable and robust smartwatch companion.

It is lacking good watchfaces though and I am beggining to be bored of the basic ones...

By the way I tested the waterproof function and it is still working after a good washing ! (I hesitated a moment before putting it into the water but I had a hot day outside and it needed to be cleaned up :laugh:)
[Other SmartWatches] cocos2000:
Hello all!

I have just received this watch and after first good impression it starts to be really annoying... as for posts above - round display is not a problem, you can change it to square by pressing the button for 2 secs and choosing top icon, it makes screen square for current app.

However - the battery as the biggest problem - once it shows battery low message - shuts down and theres no way to turn it on or put it to life in any way other than charging (??) for next 16 hrs or so... I have not found the solution for that so far but it happened to me twice already - black dead watch.

Another HUGE problem - memory. It seems that it (mine) has only 2 Gigs and after updating existing apps I found that I have... 0.15 GB free left, which is absolutely ridiculous. Theres nothing I can do with it actually except use it as watch... 720p video takes 70MB / minute for example...

Ridiculous is the idea to put apps on watch as system, that cannot be uninstalled - like gmail - useless, but im unable to uninstall.

The main problem with update of system apps - it keeps the original system apk which makes them double the size! Having nothing on the watch and 150mb free of storage is making it totally useless.

Maybe some idea for rooting it? However I doubt as the interest is low in general, nobody would bother (especially some of you said it is even somehow protected!).

Im glad to find t his thread at least.
[Other SmartWatches] cabrerachaparro:
Yes, the storage is big problem and I would like to uninstall some apps too. My other big problem is the build number upgrade. My Blitz is having Z9-KY-V03. I am using Wireless Upgrade and see a message saying "This version is not configured in FOTA server"﻿
[Other SmartWatches] Maastodonte:
I definitely was in Z9-KY-V04 when I received my watch because I could upgrade to last V06.

Did you try to contact the vendor to obtain a way to upgrade yours from this "no OTA activated" version ?

If he has no solution you can only wait for a routing method and custom rom after that...

I am beggining to feel myself very lucky beacause I don't have any problem with my battery.

The only downside is the ROM : announced 4GB and effectively being only 2GB, as of now I only have 300Mb left...

Z9 another Zeblaze Blitz and Lem 3 spin-off!

Hi Everyone,

I bought a similar model called the Z9 at Chinavision. I'm also having problem with the battery but my biggest concern is not being able to set up the APN and be able to use my internet connectivity with the 3G, thus making it a true standalone smartwatch.

I'm actually using my mobile phone as a hotspot.

Is there anyway to root this phone, please? If so how? My build number is Z9-V09.

Thanks

Backup of /system partition

I did a system reset via TVRP, but I do not have a backup.

Upload please backup of /system partition for Zeblaze Blitz, I will be very grateful !!! Thank you﻿
[Other SmartWatches] Maastodonte:
Yes, it is possible with the sinwear app on the phone and both paired via bluetooth.

Working well here. Just can't reject call directly on the watch.

[MENTION=4560967]split52[/MENTION], I just installed this rom on my blitz. It is an awesome rom, the real watch face showed up instead of a digital clock when I raised my hand. But after restart my blitz, a digital clock comeback again like a stock rom. How to maintain the real watch face show up as like as before I restart blitz?

[Other SmartWatches] kicooo:
Hi,

Last rom does not work for me. I am even sending the deodexe rom by bluetooth because I cannot access to the watch any other way. First time I had to make a reboot because there was a permament black screen. Then the Spanish keyword (IME) does not appear at all so I cannot download the previous rom using WIFI. Terrible :/
[Other SmartWatches] jchisholm:
A few bugs

Very little space left after a factory wipe and install, not sure what's up with that.

Several more watch faces, a couple are ok.

Odd that KW88 watch face apks will not install/display with this rom, unlike the stock.

I miss the stock rom' s Google + as the PlayStore version is not compatible.

Thanks for all your hard work!

Fix issues with unknown device on computer

My problem is when i connect my watch to pc says"unknown device"I can't flash nothing because my computer can't see my watch.The problem isn't on pc.It's on watch.when i open lid from my watch i see one of the contacts are not properly rested.When i pulled and immediately touched the computer saw the clock and work again.So if someone has the same problem with his watch the first can do is to check lid.Hope help(This is answer to my problem).

[Other SmartWatches] joaommarcelinoms:
Hi!

I am very interested in using the Zeblaze just like you. Can you tell me how long does it hold using just strava? (airplane mode).

And what about using it in hard rain?

Thanks for your feed back!

João
[Other SmartWatches] Maastodonte:
In airplane mode only you should be able to use it around 100 hours.

I did a foreign trip last month and used it in airplane mode with a little bit of bluetooth during five days (it was up aproximately 12 hours a day). When back in France it was at 55% battery.

So 12h * 5d = 60h for 45% battery => 133h at best, which are more than 5 full days.

By the way I found that the Blitz without a SIM card but in airplane mode with bluetooth activated eats less battery than with only bluetooth activated. Seems like some wireless services are always running when you are not in airplane mode...

My advice if you use it as a companion watch like me : always stay in airplane mode ON, it does not block bluetooth or bluetooth tethering but other battery eating services! (didn't test GPS yet in airplane mode)
[Other SmartWatches] Kurian8:
Hi !

I'm using endomondo. Yesterday on 45 min run it takes about 28% of battery (GPS on, GSM mode: 2G, data transfer on, BT and WiFi off). Next time i'm going to turn off data transfer.

I can't use Strava or RunKeeper on this phone as the settings menus are off the side of the screen and I can't access the login button for RunKeeper, only signup!

It looks and feels great as a watch, but as an android wear it's not good enough!
[Other SmartWatches] ALause:
Hi

How are this phone voice quality in voice call?
[Other SmartWatches] Danj1:
You can use RunKeeper but you have to switch to square mode:

Long press button -> tab the watch icon in the top of the screen to switch to square -> go back to RunKeeper

Now menus are accessible.

More than 100 h battery after updating?!

Hi!! Did I read right?! More than 100 h of life battery after updating your Zeblaze with the split52 "remix" custom ROM?
[Other SmartWatches] Maastodonte:
Can't tell with split52 rom, I am still on stock rom Z9-KY-V10.

And I was talking of my short experience of a little week in full airplane mode (no bluetooth, no GPS, nothing... just plain watch) almost all the time.

So it depends of your use but in general time airplane mode doesn't deactivate bluetooth so you can use it (mine at least, because some others seems to sadly have less efficient batteries) as a companion and run it around 60 hours.

Battery Behavior, custom Rom

My Zeblaze Blitz smart watch has the custom Rom: new modded rom 13-10-2016-@split52(update_my_rom_remix_v6_v10_fix.zip). I left the watch 24 per day on standby mode, was just watching here and there the battery level with disabled wifi, bluetooth, gps, sensors, all possible extra background tasks. The battery lasted 4 whole days but the indication of the battery level didn't decrease linearly smoothly, after 60% was falling very slow in around 10% steps. For example stayed almost a day at 59%, 13% and half of a day at 4%. I wanted to ask if this behavior of the battery appears in the original Rom or in other custom Roms. Is a problem of the custom Rom or like this behaves the watch?

Also I want to mention that with this custom Rom when you change the "App list style" to "List" or "Round" styles then the watch freezes (only matrix style is OK) and you cannot also change the background image.

Although these little problems this custom Rom gives around 1.5 GB free space with a lot of extra faces and is worth to put it.

A lot of thanks to the creator for his time.

Hello,

I have bought this watch and was also very satisfied.

But now have a big problem. I can not use the watch anymore. I was in the development area and just turned on the overlay settings. Now have a overlay display in the middle of the screen and can not get this option off, because almost the full display is now with the overlay window.

Also I tryed to reset to the factory setting while push the on/off switch for long period. The watch was resetted, but the setting with overlay window was still active.

Problem is also that when I connect the watch to the computer, it only charging but the computer can not find the device. I also tried to install the drives from this page, no chance. Still can not find the watch on the pc. I tried different pc/laptop with windows 7 and 10 and also tried different wires. Still nothing can be found.

I don't know what to do now.

Sounds like you wiped the pre loader. Which is the boot loader.

Without this connection to the pc is not possible and therefore you will probably not be able to recover the watch.

Sorry but this is the reality of the situation....
[Other SmartWatches] prostosergik:
Yup, that works for me, thanks! It have build-in layouts for round clocks. I would like to add some styling to it to make it more comfortable to enter the text, but in overall this keyboard is what Im looking for. Thanks! Spasibo =)

Now looking for best alarm clock app for the watch.

Tried dozens of apps and found this 2:

Alarm from FlyME OS (google it, I can't add files to the post) from Meizu. Works great on round screen, but can't assign any sound to alarm or timer. So, useles when watch is not on your wrist.

KitKat Clock (you can find it in Play Market) works fine, but add alarm screen button "confirm" is a little bit out of the screen. Will try to fix it, if possible. All other features works fine and really suit to round screen.
