Hi and thank you.

Followed the steps you gave me, but got stuck. Recovery says it cant mount sd card. Error is "E: can't mount sdcard (file or directory not found)".

I tried reformmating sd card in FAT32 in windows but still same error.

What step it say error??

Are u using twrp or not?? What model your device??

Z00LD or what?
[Zenfone 2 Laser Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpof88:
"What step it say error?? " - If I understand question, I get the error int the step where you say "-reboot to recovery and instal the firmware from sd.."

Are u using twrp or not?? - "I'm trying with stock recovery. I also flashed twrp, and it recognizes the the sd card, but from what I understand I can't flash firmware from there, I have to use stock recovery."

"What model your device?? Z00LD or what?" - Yes its a Z00LD.

I tried adb sideload for flashing the firmware but it throws an error "can't read <file name>.zip".
[Zenfone 2 Laser Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ichijou Raku:
Ok..try using this method..

-extract boot.img,recovery.img

-put rom on sd card

-enter fastboot mode

Enter this command

-fastboot erase boot

-fastboot erase recovery

-fastboot erase userdata

-fastboot erase system

-fastboot flash boot boot.img

Hello, I'm on AT&T and I want to get the LG Watch Urbane 2nd Edition LTE but I see there is two and im curious about whats the diference? I know the W200a is the AT&T watch and the W200 is an unlocked overseas watch im guessing that will work on AT&T but im hearing If I get the W200 I wont get the LTE, is this true?

Thanks,
[LG Watch Urbane 2] biediesan:
Hi, the W200 also has LTE but on a different frequency.

Regards.

---------- Post added at 08:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:15 AM ----------

I have a link with all model differences, but can't post it yet due to not having enough posts.

Regards.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] mward1995:
The W200A, the AT&T version, is unlocked and also works overseas. I'm currently in France visiting family and I'm using a Truphone SIM in my W200A with no problems. The W200E is the European version with 3G. I wouldn't worry too much about LTE. I'm usually on HSPA when home in the US and it works fine. I occasionally get a LTE signal but not sure what advantage it offers. I don't use AT&T so I'm on Truphone at home also.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] Oxicottin:
Do you guys have your regular phone number forwarded to the watch. I been trying to win one on ebay but the price is so high i might as well buy from AT&T they sell it outright for 350
[LG Watch Urbane 2] mward1995:
Most of the time I'm paired by bluetooth so I leave the cell off on the watch to save battery. When I do leave the phone behind and pair through cell data, usually when tracking runs by GPS a few times a week, I forward my phone calls to the watch's number. I also turn on audio feedback to have my texts dictated to me through the headset while running.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] vahid123456:
Hi

I am using W200A in UK and it is working perfectly. However, the 4G network is not working as it is not compatible with the UK 4G frequencies. But, I don't care as I won it in an auction for £160 (with leather band :) ) and it working great in HSPDA+.

Regards
[LG Watch Urbane 2] GrandMasterPlank:
You've got me interested. I'm in the UK and could do with some info if you've got a min. First thing, £160 through an auction?! Like where??

I'm on Vodafone and want to be able to leave the phone at home when I go running, gym etc but need to be able to still take calls, how is this done? Do you have a duplicate SIM fitted for the same number or a different SIM which calls and messages are forwarded to? Also, does it receive notifications from WhatsApp?

Last Q is if you're without your phone can you either stream Spotify playlists to the watch via LTE/3G or can you at least download playlists to the watches internal memory and play tunes over Bluetooth headphones? gain aimed at being in the gym.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] vahid123456:
I bought from ebay!

It is possible to use the watch separately in some extent. As I understood, the watch can both connect to the phone by bluetooth or the cloud. It means that when I am outside without my phone, I can get notifications through the cloud (needs your phone and watch be connect to internet), but it takes a bit time to get the notifications. I put a data sim in, so I don't know about the call and sms transfering. I only test the phone call and sms sending with the watch independent of the phone. It can get the whatsapp notification, but not image posts.

For the spotify, from my experience, with the watch you can only control playing of the songs played with your phone. However, it is possible to pair your headset with the watch to use the music player of the watch. But, i couldn't make spotify play the songs from the watch to bluetooth headset connected to the watch.

But, I think all of these would be possible with android wear 2.0 which will be released very soon by Google.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] GrandMasterPlank:
Few more Q's if you'd be good enough:

- Can you upload your own mp3's to the watches internal memory and play them independently (using a standalone watch app) from the watch to bluetooth headphones? I'm looking to not take my phone into the gym.

- if I don't have my phone in the gym will the watch still track my activity and then upload the data when it pairs again with the phone?

- which version of the watch did you get? W200A or W200E?

- is the strap uncomfortable? Have read a few bits saying it is.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] mward1995:
I am in the US and have the W200A version. I was able to use my Truphone SIM in the watch successfully when I was visiting family in France on the Orange and SFR networks. I believe France and the UK have similar frequencies. You should be able to use HSPA+ on the 2100 band. Of course W200E will have additional bands, 900 and 1800 I believe. W200A does not have these. I use mine to track runs with GPS without my phone. I forward my calls to the watch's number during runs. I also use Google Play to transfer songs/playlists to my watch and listen through bluetooth headphones. I don't believe Spotify allows you to stream music yet but that might change with 2.0 later this year. I use the ghostracer app to track runs. Runs sync to the phone after saving them. Ghostracer will then sync directly to Strava, runkeeper and Smash Run. I use SyncMyTracks Android app to sync across to multiple platforms after that.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] vahid123456:
- You can sync your phone music with the watch, but with a clean memory, watch free space is 2.2GB. So there is no so much space for music. But, I think you can use Google music cloud, if you happy for paying that.

- I have not tracked any kind of activity, so can't answer this.

- I have W200A. I bought from ebay.com (US)

- The strap is like other rubber watches. The internal surface is rubber and for me, the outside is leather. I feel comfortable, personally.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] GrandMasterPlank:
Does anyone know what 3G and LTE bands the W200, W200E and W200A use? I could only find sketchy vague info on the net about it.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] mward1995:
This might not be perfectly accurate, it doesn't mention 2100 band for W200A, but it's a start... http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=device&s=compare&ids=9236.9097.9306.9163.9073.9078.8814
[LG Watch Urbane 2] GrandMasterPlank:
Thanks for the response, this place is pretty quiet :confused: Any chance I could DM you with a few Q's?
[LG Watch Urbane 2] mward1995:
No problem. I'll answer whatever I can (FYI, I haven't tried the preview for 2.0 yet). Also, if you haven't already, you may want to checkout the Android Central forum. I've had my watch for over a year and that forum has been fairly active. https://forums.androidcentral.com/lg-watch-urbane-2nd-edition/
[LG Watch Urbane 2] pomponazzo:
I bought a W200E here in France officially imported in an Orange store. The box states "2nd edition 3G", and supported bands : 2G 900/1800, 3G 900/2100.

No LTE on this version.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] RaiderX303:
The W200A uses 850/1700, W200 uses 1800 and the W200E doesn't support LTE
[LG Watch Urbane 2] jinkerz9430:
i wonder why havent they created a new forum for the LG Watch Urbane 2nd Edition LTE?
[LG Watch Urbane 2] nigelhealy:
I know, the UB2 LTE is so different from UB they should be separate. I think though the counter argument is this forum is pretty quite.

I did ask!
[LG Watch Urbane 2] jinkerz9430:
Yeah i notice is very quite. But so are some of the other smart watches forums too. Like the gear s2 and gear s3. Yet they got their separated forums hmmm
[LG Watch Urbane 2] nigelhealy:
Well vote up my request! Reply quote my ask so its +1.

In the interim I always preference my posts with the Urbane 2 so as to not confuse the others.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] damiloveu:
I have a W200A purchased from Swappa, however, it hasn't got Wear 2.0 OTA yet. Could I upgrade it manually? Thanks.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] pomponazzo:
Nobody got it yet, buddy. Only the first edition received the 2.0 update. It should land on the Urbane 2 before the end of may. Keep fingers crossed!
[LG Watch Urbane 2] mward1995:
Hopefully we'll get it soon, although I'm reluctant with the negative reviews. The original Huawei watch, that also had the developer preview, received 2.0 in the last couple days. Hopefully that means we're not far behind.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] pomponazzo:
Hopefully.

I read bad things too, hopefully (again) it's just a matter of getting used to the new stuff... We shall see.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] mward1995:
Side question, do you use your LGU2 on your Orange account? If so, what do they charge monthly for the watch? I read that you purchased yours through Orange and was curious how plans for wearable differ there. I used my W200A in France last July and it worked great.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] pomponazzo:
My monthly plan: unlimited calls/texts, 40 Gb LTE data for €25. For the watch, add €5 per month and you get a second SIM card that shares the same number and the main data plan. Pretty straightforward.

How about you across the pond?
[LG Watch Urbane 2] nigelhealy:
The official release is soon, no date. In the interim if you want to play there is the developer preview.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] mward1995:
That's not bad at all. Our plans are more expensive. The plan for my phone is $35 a month for unlimited calls/texts but only 3GB of data. Well actually it's unlimited data, but after 3GB the speed reduces to a crawl. We have numerous carriers. 4 main providers that own the networks in addition to many MVNOs that purchase usage from the main 4 providers. They are often cheaper for some reason. For my MVNO, I don't have the option to add a wearable and share the number/data. I'm using Truphone for the watch. It's a global SIM that's pay as you go. In the US it's 9 cents per minute/text/MB with incoming calls/texts free. I only use LTE when I leave my phone behind during runs and I forward my phone calls to the watch. It's only costing me $2 a month usually (before AW 2.0). In France it was 25 cents per minute, so not an everyday option, but it still worked great on both Orange and SFR networks.

Some of the 4 main providers do offer wearable add ons for $5-$10 but their main plans for the phone cost more.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] nigelhealy:
So I've had my UB2 a few weeks and I have ATT 5GB and T-Mobile 10GB Sims and tried each in the UB2, as well as trying on AW1.5 and AW2.0

The battery drain is huge using LTE and when using for voice.

Once I learned that realistic low expectation, then I cut it back to just those situations it would really help, and that situation suits well the Truphone Sim. I'm still learning, once I looked at Truphone daily costs I found the watch was connected to LTE at times​ it should not, so I now disable cellular when near my phone.

In my case I use Google Voice and I enable it calling Truphone number and enable cellular on the watch, others they just forward all calls from their mobile.

From my experiences with the Developer Preview of AW2.0 and from reading the problem some are having, I'd be very guarded in rushing to upgrade. Wait as long as possible. I've downloaded and saved the 1.5 current ZIP in case I accidentally upgrade so I can flash downgrade.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] mward1995:
8

Yeah I may look for 1.5 if 2.0 doesn't work out for me. My cell usage in the watch is minimal so I'll probably test it and see how it goes. It's only on during runs, calls forwarded to the watch, and I'm using about 35% an hour battery with GPS tracking and bluetooth music playing from the watch. If this increases greatly and/or Android Pay doesn't work, I'll probably revert back to 1.5.

Also, I've had my watch for 18 months and feel like I've been waiting for 2.0 for a year (never tried the preview). I feel like I have to try it :)
[LG Watch Urbane 2] nigelhealy:
I do that but not music and I get 25%/ hour.

Given the smaller batteries in AW devices, a low usage plan like PAYG is a good balance. Given it overheats and hangs up on long calls, a plan with say free incoming calls would be a good match. I phoned my carriers and I was quoted silly money to get a wearable on their network, sheer profiteering given how little a wearable can demand, relative to say a mobile.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] mward1995:
Yeah I don't do contracts any more for phones (Cricket), TV (PlayStation Vue), etc. so I don't have an option to add my watch to a plan. It would be convenient for a $5 add on with shared data, but not willing to sign up for it. I buy cheaper unlocked Android (still using a ZenFone 2 from ASUS) phones and avoid the 'big releases' from Samsung/Apple etc. I don't feel the need to give then ALL of my $ :)
[LG Watch Urbane 2] nigelhealy:
Oh I didn't explain correctly then. I meant I don't buy devices from a carrier, I buy unlocked, but post pay family plans oftentimes are lower total cost than prepay. I moved phones from a mixture of services like Straight talk to a shared family plan, it cut our total cost, but all devices are bought separately unlocked. That is the minimum total cost.

Most mobiles in our family are pulling 1.3GB to 7GB a month but they have lots of apps, big screens. A wearable can never truly consume as much, the battery and the limits of screen causes a reduction.

I phoned T-Mobile and asked if I wanted to add a wearable line, quoted $15, vs additional mobile is $20. It should be say $5.

I'm extrapolating $5/month with Truphone.

I think I saw on the AW2.0 Developer Preview that when BT tethered to phone, you can tell the watch to tell the phone to forward calls to the watch, to make it easier to leave your phone behind.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] mward1995:
No problem, explained well enough just explaining my reason for not 'adding on' to a plan.

I'm hoping 2.0 will work in a similar way for forwarding. If I leave my phone by mistake now on 1.5, I can turn on 3G on the watch and wait to pair through cell data. Once I'm paired I can tell the phone to forward calls to the watch from within the watch settings. I like that feature.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] nigelhealy:
If you have the time and inclination, then play with the Developer Preview. Practically everything is different. Seriously without looking at a guide or a lot of random efforts, you do everything different. Buttons do different things. It includes standalone apps like you can (pay for app) have native email client so your phone can go offline but you still can email. Still early limited benefits, e.g. Hangouts is not yet standalone. I did a full set of tests of my apps and very limited benefits and the UB2 became unusuable with non responsive screen at times. I know the official is probably going to be better that DP.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] mward1995:
Figure I've waited this long might as well wait for the update notification :) Thanks for the info though. It'll be a change for sure, hopefully not a disappointing one. Just need to keep my GPS tracking and AP, otherwise back to 1.5.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] mward1995:
You can listen to them talk about features in the NEXT release...... that's 2.0 for us, probably 3.0 for them :)

https://events.google.com/io/schedule/?sid=47be2eda-55be-4b38-a28a-f4bf877b0708
[LG Watch Urbane 2] nigelhealy:
They just need to bugfix and tune for battery life. Battery life is the dominant issue currently. AW2 adds standalone features but if use standalone the battery drain really cripples the whole premise. I have had AW for over 2 years and the last major release about a year ago killed battery life and then some updates got back to 2 days on my SW3.

I paid $185 total for a refurbished UB2, because the newest devices like the LG Watch Sport at double that cost which can't be used for long standalone is a joke, relative to say the Samsung Gear S3 which proves with better software you can last longer.

Go into Settings, then tap on Apps.

Locate Pokemon Go, tap on it. Then tap on 'Force Stop'.

As for how to clear it's data and cache... depends on which OS you use... in Android 6.0.1. you'd tap on 'Storage' and the options to clear data and cache should be there.

[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deksman2:
I tried this and the game simply crashes after the splash screen as usual.

This started happening on 0.29.3 version on Friday for some reason, and when I removed the newest version and replaced it with 0.29.2, same issue.

I hadn't tried this procedure with 0.29.2 though.

However, if it's of any relevance, my Star Trek Wrath of Gems game also refuses to load properly. It finished loading all assets, but when the loading bar reaches 100%, a few seconds later, the app just vanishes and I'm thrown back to the main screen.

All of this started happening on Friday morning.

I also did a full wipe and even replaced Resurrection Remix (older version) with beanstalk (and latest Ressurection Remix after that).

The issue as described for both games persists on either ROM.

Mind you, the google play games app update might be causing issues with Wrath of Gems... but I am at a loss as to what is crashing Pokemon GO since Friday morning on 29.2 and 29.3 versions all of a sudden (when the night before everything was working fine) and on any MM ROM I tried.

EDIT: Pokemon GO seems to work now (downloaded and installed 0.29.2 version a new and now it suddenly works).

0.29.3 version however seems to be a bust for me.

Star trek Wrath of Gems however still throws me out to the main screen after the loading bar has finished loading assets, etc (could be the updated game is messed up on Intel chipsets).

I found that if you touch the screen while battery saver mode is on, the game freezes. That and if your network disconnects, but that is expected since it relies on game servers.
