[/COLOR [MENTION=4487349]Lrs121[/MENTION] on the nightlies with the ext4 image should the command to push the file be adb push -p asteroid-image-sparrow.ext4 /sdcard/linux/rootfs.ext4 instead of adb push -p asteroid-image-sparrow.ext2 /sdcard/linux/rootfs.ext2?
[Asus ZenWatch 2] Lrs121:
Probably, they migrated to ext4 images and all you have to do is make sure the command matches the name of the file. So in this case it would be the second one with the ext4 image. I haven't had time to work on much since I graduated. Getting the documentation updated and working on Bluetooth is on my to-do list.

[Asus ZenWatch 2] Lrs121:
Hi all

sorry for disappearing. Im kinda back after being on the verge of bankruptcy. I got a job in my field near the end of July and have been in the process of getting my life back together. It's been a bit of a process to get a schedule with some free(me) time together. I dont have a plan in place to get back into working on AsteroidOS but I still want to clean up the OP and other documentation, as well as work on trying to get bluetooth at least initializing. WiFi will be next (maybe), there is probably a lot that could use touching up. I probably should get in touch with some of the regular developers, but i need a different method of communication. IRC is hard to deal with when you only have a couple minutes here and there.

I make no promises. I have limited time and skill/understanding when it comes to programming. Although, I hope to change that some day.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] abine45:
Sorry to hear about that, I hope that you can get back on your feet. I think the biggest thing is to get bluetooth going. If you want to release all your source code though I will gladly do the best of my knowledge to help out. :D Bluetooth it the biggest thing. Hope all is going well for you :D
[Asus ZenWatch 2] emacsomancer:
I'm not able to connect to my phone via wifi (no wifi options, but I think that's expected), and I can't turn bluetooth on (from comments here maybe that's also expected?), and so there's no way to connect watch and phone. I also don't seem to be able to set the time.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] abine45:
this is in a huge alpha stage still. so most things right now aren't set up
[Asus ZenWatch 2] Lrs121:
Things are much better. Im getting some debt paid off and am looking to move in late January. Two hours of commuting every day really eats up free time.

At the moment the AsteroidOS GitHub tree holds the latest code. There is a Bluetooth pull request that could possibly work but needs some real work since it was written for wren then pull requested over.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] abine45:
Can't wait to see some updates!
[Asus ZenWatch 2] abine45:
Any Updates?
[Asus ZenWatch 2] r0tati0n:
Would it be possible to modify AsteroidOS to have no connection to the smartphone (and no no-connection-symbol)?

Just showing the watchface and have some nice apps, but a few days of battery?
[Asus ZenWatch 2] Lrs121:
It probably do able but I am not sure where that is referenced. It may have something to do with the watch faces.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] r0tati0n:
Well...

It is not Android Wear, but in Wear this no connection symbol was Android specific and it could not be removed by a watch face.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] Lrs121:
I've tried my hand at adding bluetooth to an experimental build. I really doubt it will work but its something to test. Ive gone and lost my charge cable so i cant test it myself. If you do test it you will need the companion app. Having backups before testing is recomended. Good luck.

[Asus ZenWatch 2] jclendineng:
Still no Bluetooth. New rom flashed and works well though besides that!
[Asus ZenWatch 2] Lrs121:
Thanks for testing it. That's about what I expected. I think I've overlooked something however I doubt that will fix it. I'll double check that I have the configs set right and see if I need to spin off a new build.

Otherwise I plan on publishing my changes where they can be poked at, however my gut tells me that it's a kernel thing; of which I know practically nothing.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] Lrs121:
Source is up at https://gitlab.com/lrs/asteroidos-sparrow
[Asus ZenWatch 2] abine45:
It's progress, hope to see another update really soon! Can't wait to use it with bluetooth
[Asus ZenWatch 2] Lrs121:
I missed something in my last build in a config for which firmware to use. I want to spin off a new build but some updates broke the process the last time I tried. I don't think this alone will enable Bluetooth but it is a step closer.

I just moved and get internet soon, so I should be able to try again soon.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] abine45:
That's awesome!
[Asus ZenWatch 2] abine45:
Hoping to see an update soon, am ready to test
[Asus ZenWatch 2] Lrs121:
I finally got around to running off a build. I ran in to issues during build time. Something seg faulted due to me building on a ryzen machine with the segfault bug (i really need to get it RMA'd before too long, Ive been dealing with it for about a year now). It shouldnt cause any problems.

[Asus ZenWatch 2] abine45:
No bluetooth still but the os itself works great!
[Asus ZenWatch 2] Lrs121:
That's what is suspected. It needs some debugging, I need to get my hands on some logs.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] Grillac:
If you can guide me through the process of getting you a log, I can help you out with that. My ZW2 is gathering dust currently and I'd love to revive it with Asteroid!
[Asus ZenWatch 2] Lrs121:
Sorry, I've got 12 projects and one brain. Now I've made it back around to this one, I'm running off a new build with debugging tools.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] Grillac:
Awesome. I just want to help you out. I think Asteroid OS would be great for the ZW2!
[Asus ZenWatch 2] Lrs121:
Sorry, I was more explaining why it takes me so long to get back to you. With 1.0 (non-alpha) release it is really smooth. Now we just need to get the hardware features working.

Building has been buggy and I haven't been able to get a successful build to finish. Once I get that done then we'll see where we go from there.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] Grillac:
Awesome! Sounds great to me! Take your time! I'm just glad someone is working on this. Just let me know if there's anything I can do to help!

[Asus ZenWatch 2] matze19999:
any updates on bluetooth issue? :)
[Asus ZenWatch 2] nadastry:
Are there any updates? :(
[Asus ZenWatch 2] Lrs121:
No forward momentum; it's stalled. It's, honestly, not a project I spend a lot of time on (due to life and other projects).

It takes quite a bit of time and resources to work on. I spend more time fixing build problems, before I make any changes, then I do debugging (which is dependent on a successful build). Largely figuring out if it's my processor introducing the bugs (i have an early Ryzen 5 with the segfault bug), if it's environmental, or an actual bug in the buld process.

At best we are where we were months ago, with some ideas but no clue where the problem lies.

Someone once suggested to use the wren builds on sparrow but I am highly sceptical. Although, I can't say for sure whether or not that would work; I haven't tried it. If it does then another problem will likely arise when trying to enable the speaker. I believe there are kernel related differences when it comes to the screen and the speaker and I suspect there are more for other parts. Also, if I recall correctly, the wren build strips out much of anything sparrow specific.

As always my code is available for anyone to try, build, and debug. The AsteroidOS website is a great resource for initial changes for this kind of stuff as well as debugging.

My code(on gitlab because GitHub was being a butt about trying to "fork" it):

https://gitlab.com/lrs/asteroidos-sparrow

My current guess is that there is some random build time setting that I am missing combined with some patches or configuration that needs to be done.

A side note, I know I can RMA the processor but it's not worth it when I'll likely upgrade in less than a year or two it hasn't effected other highly threaded/intensive operations like video encoding/transcoding.

This is the rushed post of someone trying to type it out on a smartphone during his lunch break.

Hey everyone,

I've just registered so I doubt I can post links. A while back I sent a ZW2 501Q (sparrow) to the lead maintainer of AsteroidOS. He says he has fixed a) the nightlies build system (stopped working a month ago), b) Bluetooth, and c) vibration. Updated images should appear in the nightlies/sparrow subdirectory of releases dot asteroidos dot org by tomorrow, so if you're reading this after January 28th and have a large ZW2 you might want to take a look.

Got this response from the dev: "Nightlie builds run every couple of nights. However, as I mentioned in my previous email, there has been an issue during the past month that prevented them from building. I'd expect everything to be back on track by the end of the week."

Bluetooth works but seems a little choppy on my Essential PH1 rooted stock rom
[Asus ZenWatch 2] marcdw:
Greetings all.

On my ASUS Zenwatch 2 sparrow I noticed something. I still have Wear OS on the watch so I'm dual booting. If I fastboot boot AsteroidOS I have Bluetooth. When I boot via the TWRP method (boot image backed up and restored when I need it) Bluetooth is off and can't be turned on via Settings. The BT icon in the quick settings can be toggled on/off but it doesn't do anything.

Is this a known issue? I'm not sure what to do next to troubleshoot the issue. Saw a tip for the LG G Watch about rebooting a few times but that doesn't work here.

Moto G5 Plus XT1687, Desolation ROM v0.3, MultiROM, XDA Legacy
[Asus ZenWatch 2] leoic:
thats rom is shtty
[Asus ZenWatch 2] qu4nd:
So I finally gave it a try. Bluetooth doesn't enable. When I boot the system, the icon in quicksettings is off. Even if I switch it on (the icon in qs is no longer greyed out) in settings it still shows as deactivated...

So I thought about reflashing... But adb is no longer recognizing the watch...

What can I do?

Edit: After directly booting to fastboot mode I was able to reflash. There is an issue open on github about bluetoth not working after reboot. So I have to avoid a reboot for the moment ^^

[Asus ZenWatch 2] manni#12:
Hello, I have installed AsteroisOS as Nightly. I think the OS is great, but one thing bothers me.

WLAN still does not work. This means that when I am outside the range of Bluetooth, I lose the connection to the phone. With Wi-Fi, I would be able to cover a much greater distance. What are the chances that Wi-Fi will be implemented?
[Asus ZenWatch 2] danialbehzadi:
That's not how it works. The connection is based on BLE which is a Bluetooth protocol and can not be used through WLAN.
[Asus ZenWatch 2] manni#12:
I don't understand.

When using Android Wear 2.35.0.325323493 on my Sparrow, I can observe the following behaviour:

When I am near my phone, the watch uses Bluetooth to connect to my phone. If I am outside the Bluetooth range, my watch switches to WLAN reception. All incoming messages continue to be signalled to me even then.

Hi? I'm in same situation. From stock, I didn't follow any particular tutorial. I used my knowledge from HTC m8. I unlocked bootloader, flashed latest twrp for m9, flashed latest supersu zip. And that's it. Boot loop afterwards. I flashed supersu via OTG Drive. Could that be an issue? Phone is still S-ON

UPDATE: I some how wiped cache, dalvich, data and system partition in twrp now it says I have no OS installed. I think I wasn't supposed to wipe system partition? How to get back to phone plz? Could you Point me to a restore file or stock HTC file I can restore with adb or twrp? I didn't make a backup before I started the whole thing.

[Galaxy S 4 General] tjsplash96:
Hi everyone, i m new to this community

Now comming to point. . Yes its possible to root our S4 (tried myself on GT-I9500 not sure about others) without tripping knox

Procedure:-

1) Make sure you are connected to internet and usb debugging is enabled in developer options

2) Download an app named "kingoroot" (google it and you will find its link on top)

3) Click root

4) Voila! You are done without tripping your knox:silly:

P.S: i couldn't post links as i am new to this community
[Galaxy S 4 General] david19au:
Towelroot from Geohot made this possible on KitKat 2 years ago lol
[Galaxy S 4 General] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
Not to mention Kingoroot is sketchy as hell.
[Galaxy S 4 General] BeastMode6:
Not to sound condescending or anything, but who really cares about tripping Knox at this point? The Galaxy S4 is over 3 years old. The Samsung warranty is long gone. CF-Auto-Root is an objectively better rooting option, as it allows you to use SuperSU easily instead of the kingoroot app.

Again, not knocking you, I just don't really see the point of using this method.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] 2390:
Hey guys, I'm debating between the OnePlus 3 and the Axon 7. I'm leaning towards the Axon, mainly because the OP3 screen doesn't seem to be very good for VR. My main concern with the Axon is the lack of roms. It's this just because it's new, or what?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] xtermmin:
To date, the phone has only been released in small batches.

Bootloader unlock is less than a month old. (although in this one month period, we went from a locked device, to bootloader unlocked + twrp + root + method to twrp/root without BL unlock + CM13 alpha development. not bad.)

Only the US model is currently BL unlockable, so that's killing European-based dev support. (Chinese and European/Global models to come)

ZTE has not published full images for the US model yet. (so people are hesitant to flash things)
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] 2390:
Fair enough. But yeah, I'm not sure if I could tolerate MiFavor, it looks like the equivalent of a Chinese iphone knockoff, but it's instead a ripoff of stock android. Any word on unlocking in Europe and releasing the images?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] xtermmin:
The US models have a Stock Android theme that uses more stock-like icons (compared to the blocky icons of the MiFavor themes), but of course you can replace with your own favorite launcher. While I do like the Nougat-esque notification shade, I'm not a huge fan of some of the other skin changes. Stock would be best, and who knows, maybe after the demand they've seen on the ZTE USA forums, they might go full stock Android for Nougat. (but if they don't, hey, that's what CM and other custom roms are for!)

Bootloader unlock for the European model is still being assessed by ZTE, due to EU laws that enforce warranty claims even after bootloader unlocking (in the US/CA, ZTE can refuse warranty after unlock).

As for the system images, ZTE employees have acknowledged that there is a demand for images. They may release an image alongside the planned OTA update that should be coming really soon.

I can boot into download mode and recovery mode, and the bootloader which is unlocked. I just want to know how I can flash a ROM or something so I can get the phone back to normal operating conditions. In its current state the phone does not connect to my computer no matter what I've tried so I can't use adb.

I would like help as soon as possible. I'm sure I wont get it until its too late.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] John_124:
well, then you better offer more details because no one CAN help you with no info not even htc itself, start by mentioning what caused the issue , what state is your phone in ( stock tom , s-off, what recovery,what firmware version.......) then we'll see how to proceed.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] INDIAN-MAfIA:
I think your system partition has been wiped and the exclamation mark you see is probably from the recovery.

But how can you wipe if you haven't flashed twrp yet.

You can boot to download mode, flash twrp, copy some rom to internal using twrp and then flash the rom.
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] REtails:
If you can get into download mode you should be able to connect. You are more than likely having an issue with drivers, make sure the necessary drivers for HTC fastboot/adb are installed on your system. If I'm not mistaken installing HTC sync manager will install an umbrella driver package that should work for you. Download ADB version 1.0.32.x or newer and run it from the command prompt (cd to adb directory and use 'adb x y z' format commands). Issue the command 'adb devices' and the adb program will attempt to detect your HTC 10. If you get a device identifier you are more than likely set to unbrick, let me know if that works and I'll walk you through it.

Edit: Also answers to John_124's post above will be essential in restoring your phone!
