[Huawei Watch] Isis111:
I know you said it didn't matter about the charger but let me share with you why it might. I had the same issue you are having, watch would charge but no connection. I don't know if the solution will be the same but what I found out was that all the chargers I bought on Amazon charged the device but would not make a data connection. Since I had misplaced my Hauwei charger, and after trying just about everything else I paid for a replacement from Huawei, which btw cost me about 40 bucks, but as soon as I put in on the back of the watch and plugged it in I had a consistent and stable connection for ADB. That's my 2 cents.
[Huawei Watch] Ghisy:
I've installed through ADB several watch faces so these won't be restored. I wonder if I can make an ADB back-up of the installed apps...

Now does anyone know where the factory image for AW 2.0 is? Can't find it on XDA (which is odd). Thanks!
[Huawei Watch] Isis111:
Hey there, good to see you again. Did you happen to read my latest post as to why I couldn't use ADB on my watch??? It's all about the charger disc.
[Huawei Watch] Pkt_Lnt:
I did, yes. I have only ever used the original Huawei charger for adb and 99% of my charging. I'm well versed on different USB cables, some only charge, there are differences in data transfer vs charging in how they are wired. I have an after market one with a short cable that I carry away from home to charge the watch on trips, and I know it does not work for data, which also means adb commands.

When people post about issues and do not state they are using a different charger, I have no way to know that. My attempts to assist are based on what I read, and unless stated otherwise, I assume (yeah, I know!) they are using the manufacturer provided cable. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
[Huawei Watch] Isis111:
Listen there was no way to tell you that because it never even occurred:o to me that the disc might be the issue. As I had shared with you before I have a number of Android devices and with everyone of them I have an aftermarket cable, until this watch I'd never had that issue. Truth is I just happened by accident to find out what I was doing wrong. Pure chance and a whole lot of luck, it almost killed me to buy a Hauwei disc, but when it worked it was great.
[Huawei Watch] Pkt_Lnt:
Now you know. ;)

This article is valuable.

[Huawei Watch] Isis111:
Thanks for the article, except I already felt stupid now I feel idiotic, giggle. However, sometimes to learn you have to feel dumb so I learned something from this watch, and learning something new can't be a bad thing. I would periodically check on here to see if you were on so that I could confess my sins and obtain absolution, LMAO, but we never seemed to connect at the same time. That being said, I finally got to tell you what happened and learned a good lesson about 3rd party cables.
[Huawei Watch] Pkt_Lnt:
Sorry, to make you feel anything like that, but glad you take it well. Agreed you have to wade to learn, then figure out how to get back outta the muck. :highfive:

I'm an old hands on, up to my shoulders, down and dirty, figure it out as I go guy. I have had some adventures in life that few will ever experience. I waded into Android the same way, except I research the bejesus *first* with lots of saved links and open tabs to get myself back out. Plan A, Plan B, Plan C, etc. :D
[Huawei Watch] Isis111:
Hey, don't get me wrong, I'm a shrink by trade and if there is anything I've learned it's that to grow human beings have to feel pain, stupid, dumb.....or whatever other negative aspect that most people feel when the lack of knowledge makes them uncomfortable. It's how you handle those feelings that matter, you can get mad and shutdown, or you can use the feelings to gain the knowledge that you need to make them stop, I choose to learn rather then shutting down.
[Huawei Watch] Ghisy:
Thanks, good call! Have you tried creating a backup this way?
[Huawei Watch] Pkt_Lnt:
When this watch ROM first came out, yes. Never tried a restore.

I've used adb on my phone to make backups for years on about four phones. Saved my bacon once or twice. :good:
[Huawei Watch] Ghisy:
Hmmm, I can't seem to make it work. My watch is connected to my PC (adb devices work) and in recovery mode (TWRP). Whenever I try to execute the adb backup command (adb backup -all --twrp or adb backup --twrp data), I always get "Now unlock your device and confirm the backup operation". Should I be running this when AW is booted instead maybe?

Btw, "adb shell bu help" doesn't bring up any help, it's odd... (I did update my SDK installation today, just in case).

edit: nope, getting the same unlock message when the system is booted up. I don't get it :/
[Huawei Watch] Pkt_Lnt:
Yes, confirmed, no response to any bu command on the watch. We were on AW 1.5 back then when it worked. Odd, I'll see if I can find more on the AW development site about the bu commands.

Here is the output from my Pixel 2 XL, just with the cable connected in the normal running phone, and adb debugging set to "Transfer Files".

xxxxxx@linux ~ $ adb shell bu help

[Huawei Watch] Ghisy:
Eh, nevermind, I gave up and flashed the AW 1.5 stock image then factory reset in TRWP. I'm reinstalling the apps now, such a pain. If only it had more internal memory, I could have made a backup .zip of my data. Oh well...
[Huawei Watch] Paul_Days:
Hello Gang, Does this ROM have the double button Theater Mode?
[Huawei Watch] Kev84:
Hi Guys,

Wondeing if anyone have any luck sideloading Oct security patch release for this rom? I'm getting error with fingerprint.

[Huawei Watch] KaiseRRUby:
Damn, i miss this rom. Oreo messes up the notifications, and this rom had the beautifull vibration intensity change module. Any change that this rom will get an update [MENTION=593681]negamann303[/MENTION] ?

Did you read his final post?

I did not, bad news i guess. Thanks!
[Huawei Watch] Ghisy:
If I remember correctly, his HW broke and he got a HW2 instead from Huawei's customer service. So it's safe to say this ROM is dead unfortunately...
[Huawei Watch] leekaiwei:
Are you guys getting restarts from the OTA and failing? I found threads on stopping the OTA on 1.5. Will those work on this ROM?
[Huawei Watch] shaolin95:
I do some times. What is everyone doing about the annoying failed upgrade?
[Huawei Watch] Ghisy:
I factory reset my watch and went back to stock so I can apply OTAs now. This ROM was really nice but is not being developed anymore.
[Huawei Watch] TheSt33v:
It should. The OTA stopping method in my post (the 1.5 downgrade post) is based on stopping services in the latest version of the Google Play Services app, and that should be independent of the rom you're using.

---------- Post added at 12:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:16 PM ----------

Well the OP says we can use his work freely, and I'm bored and need a project, so I might take a crack at bringing this to the latest (and probably final) firmware version.
[Huawei Watch] TheSt33v:
Made a first attempt at updating this rom last night. I got it to boot (it takes a loooong time at first, but I think that was an always an issue with this rom) but it gets stuck when pairing with the phone. Not a bad first attempt in my opinion. Logcat is telling me that the reason for these issues is the inability of the OS to find a bunch of stuff, so once I get everything in the right place it should work a little better. So far I've updated all relevant gapps and all optional apps that were included, and I've also updated busybox.

One thing that I think was broken in the original rom, or maybe I'm just missing something, is the implementation of root access. The part of the update script that refers to installing the superuser binary refers to a folder that is not in the install package, and the stock kernel is installed after this process, which I believe would overwrite any implementation of systemless (aka modified boot image) superuser. I'm sure I'll get it going eventually. Stay tuned.
[Huawei Watch] BIade:
Thank you soo much!!!!

Are you developing on a public git? I would love to see the steps you make, and how you solve problems. (I would learn a lot from it)

Cheers

Blade
[Huawei Watch] TheSt33v:
Nah. I'm not really making any code changes. I'm only messing with where certain apps are located and with the install script. I'm having a lot of trouble that I'm pretty sure are permissions related though. It's really frustrating. I thought that this update would be pretty much the same as the last one, so the original script would work fine, but it doesn't. I haven't been able to solve the problem of the watch not being able to pair with Android Wear after boot, but I also got distracted with a bunch of other things so I haven't been working on it very hard.

I broke my own rule of announcing something before it was done. Hopefully that wasn't a mistake. I'll try to make it more of a priority next week.
[Huawei Watch] taghisystem:
Hi .

Do you fix wifi working problem?
[Huawei Watch] forgottenhacker:
[MENTION=5901115]TheSt33v[/MENTION] any updates? I found my watch at the bottom of my drawer and found it on stock, shocked to see that development for this beautiful device has stopped,and your post brought back hope...were you able to fix what went wrong with root? Are we going to see more development?
[Huawei Watch] TheSt33v:
Nope. I went back to stock and I don't really mess with Android stuff anymore. I'm basically just waiting for Fossil Gen 5s to go down in price at this point.
[Huawei Watch] SirTurbo:
No notifications from WA are a bit pita. But when official release, WA will have to update...

More disturbing is my battery. Since new ROM my battery is drained before night. With 1.5 i had chances to work 2 days. An app? Or ROM? How is your battery?

Gesendet von meinem SM-N930F mit Tapatalk

Edit: Last night my watch went off by drained battery. charged complete. Now the battery is about 50%. And task manager only sees itself as task, so no app in background if i can trust. (could trust at 1.5)
[Huawei Watch] hachiroku:
thanks for the hard work...still setting up so don't have many thoughts.

to note...first boot took very very very long time. i also unpaired and rebooted and this also took a very very long time.

but so far ROM is very snappy and I like it. Thanks!
[Huawei Watch] Asiier:
[MENTION=593681]negamann303[/MENTION] I'm not sure If it's the Kernel or the ROM (or maybe all the apps that I have installed) but my experience is not good at all.

A lot of freezes and stutters, sometimes everything becomes extremely laggy and freezes, the screen gets on ambient mode and it won't respond to anything... But then everything works fine and super snappy

It's really weird...

I have installed the newest version of the Kernel just in case that was the problem, but everything seems to be the same or even worst :(

P.D.: I'm using F2FS for /data and /cache and EXT4 for /system. Is this a problem? Or would I rather not use F2FS?

Edit: Yeah, seems like the problem has to do with F2FS... I changed to EXT4 and this massive freeze that made the watch unusable are gone

So I would rather say that it's supported but not recommended at all!

However, even though I changed to EXT4, I feel like the ROM lags and stutter a little too much compared with Stock Preview 4....

Even after setting everything on KA to performance or performance like govs

I'm not sure, but I think the problem has to do with hotplugging, I have noticed that CPU1 is getting turned off even the load was considerable leaving CPU0 on its own. Even after settings 3 CPU max the lag was still there when doing certain actions...
[Huawei Watch] mvjh01:
What I did was install the Google developer preview 4, the HW kernel then SuperSU. This seems to be optimum for me as the watch is very smooth and fast with good battery life. It might be worth a try[emoji3]
[Huawei Watch] negamann303:
Rom v1.1

Rom has been updated. Should solve any poor performance issues
[Huawei Watch] Asiier:
After installing all my apps and letting the watch stabilize the lags and stutters were much less frequent but still there and some random freezes too.

I hope version 1.1 solves that problem.

Nonetheless, thank you for your work [MENTION=593681]negamann303[/MENTION]
[Huawei Watch] Motawa88:
Battery life is pretty bad. Like 10 hours if even.
[Huawei Watch] Asiier:
Okay, I have some updates [MENTION=593681]negamann303[/MENTION]

Dirty flash the newest version along with the Kernel.

The lag and stutters are still there, I cannot tell If more or less often. But what's more problematic is the freezes that occur (at least for me) after trying to turn the screen on from ambient mode...

The only time I suffer from Freezes is when I turn on the screen and sometimes when opening apps, after the freeze everything becomes laggy and then everything is smooth again. So really weird stuff :/

I'm now clean installing the ROM only and see how it goes. So we can determine If the problem comes from the ROM, the Kernel or the combo ROM + Kernel.

I'll keep you update

battery life

I installed the stock 2.0 beta, but my battery life is poor as well. I searching solution here, but I see have this issue with others. I'm using always on ambient mode, and charging the watch on every morning. It worked well with stock 1.5 rom, but with 2.0 the battery is only 10-20% in the evening.
[Huawei Watch] pablo71:
battery life with any new rom can be bad for a few days because of this https://xdaforums.com/huawei-watch/general/bad-battery-life-read-factory-reset-t3474948

"maybe" this could be the issue

sometimes this happens on day one, other times it takes a few days for the Google servers to get to you ... but you should expect it to happen every month or so ... when I have bad battery days it's this 95% of the time
[Huawei Watch] keleman:
Maybe you have right. I checked the watch storage, and the used space more and more in every 10 minutes. I'm waiting some days before I go back to 1.5. Thank you.
[Huawei Watch] negamann303:
Also, we have a tendency to play with the watch more than usual when flashing new. My rom should typically give you a day and a half. We lose half a day because of the performance increase. There is also a day+ settling time. I've been watching closely on my end
[Huawei Watch] pablo71:
I wish you luck and hope battery life gets better for you ... huawei watch is great
[Huawei Watch] Asiier:
[MENTION=593681]negamann303[/MENTION]

Okay, definitely the problem have to do with the Kernel, either the kernel itself or the Kernel + the ROM

The clean installation of the ROM without the kernel was snappy and smooth, just minor lag when doing some heavy tasks.

But after flashing the Kernel the freeze was back and the watch became nearly unusable. The watch also started to heat up even when I wasn't using it.

Something is wrong with the Kernel, I hope my information is enough for figuring out
[Huawei Watch] ajb_111:
I read through the thread for a solution but I don't fully understand the responses - written "back out" not sure what this means

I am stuck after flashing this rom 1.1 "checking for updates" thanks for help
[Huawei Watch] adrok76:
Awesome! I can't believe there's all these goodies available for my watch.

The only thing I've noticed are developer options kicks me out after a few seconds back to the previous settings screen and as mentioned earlier reboot seems to take longer than usual but hey! All in all those are trivial things to have compared to what this awesome ROM brings.

Thanks for your work, it's much appreciated.

Edit: Strange, the developer options issue seems to have fixed itself overnight by itself.
[Huawei Watch] Motawa88:
There is something's wrong with this wrong. Messages for wear stops giving notifications. I tried it with stock dp4 and it works there

Could you provide online the modded apk for advanced watch settings so I can use it with stock and your kernel?
[Huawei Watch] Kris6699:
So what exactly are the benefits of this ROM. I have been running this since I got my watch. And ran DP4 before this ROM. I don't really notice much difference.
[Huawei Watch] damngood98:
take a look at the op (first post)....everything modified is listed there.....whether or not it's of any benefit to you is not for me to say
[Huawei Watch] mvjh01:
Battery Life

Just a quick heads up to the dev; thanks for your hard work but you probably need to look at the battery life. I installed your latest Wear2 ROM and kernel, then activated SuperSU and gave root access to Root Essentials. My battery went from 100% to 27% in 3.5 hours. I then reinstalled the Google Developer Preview 4 with your kernel, activated SuperSU and the battery has gone down 6% in 3.5 hours. I like your ROM, it's very snappy and responsive but unfortunately unusable with the battery usage the way it is. That's just my opinion of course.
[Huawei Watch] Asiier:
[MENTION=593681]negamann303[/MENTION] Yet another problem, not sure it's just me or everybody

The phone will stay awake while charging (Even that option is turn off on the Developer Options)

Not only that, because of this problem the phone will heat up A LOT, like the battery at ~47 ºC and the CPU at ~75 ºC and the screen will not turn on until the watch is turned off and on.

Overall it has a problem with temperature, just when a little to moderate usage is done to it the watch will start to heat up quite a lot, nothing to worry about but on Official preview 4 won't happen. The real problem is while charging, it's certainly bad for the battery.

I hope this help
[Huawei Watch] SirTurbo:
Dont know if it was the "pull data"-drain of the battery. I throw apps from my watch which i had installed because they came no longer from phone. playing music and videos, showing pics. Would like them (even if their ads are annoying), but killed them when the battery drained in 6hs. Actual my battery is back to about 36h.

Like the ROM. (think i already told^^)

WhatsApp got an update, now notifications come to watch again.

But: Up to 1.5 ROM i was able to answer telephone calls by watch. No, i dont like to have long discussions by that, even if it is bond-like in the 80s. But often i get a call an dont want to pull out the phone just to promise a recall because i am busy at the moment.

With the actual ROM i have only two signs: A "R" (dont know for what, reject? can not take the call by that) and the red receiver which does what red receivers usual do: end a call / refuse to take the call.

I think you will see the same. So how can i/we change that behaviour? 2.0 should be the first AW version only for wearables with speaker, so why is it not offering full calls anymore?
[Huawei Watch] PeeHoo:
Very interesting... with this watch firmware and LG G4 Android 6.0 & Imperium ROM v 11.0...

after installing this firmware to my watch... when watch is connected with phone -> no ringing tone at phone at all?? Need to check more... but really interesting...

edit: This is somehow stupid...

If watch is connected to the phone then if watch ringtone is silent then phone is also silent (even if in phone sound settings are different (volume on, ringtone on etc...). If I turn watch ringtone on - then phone ringtone is on OR if watch is disconnect then phone ringtone is on (without any modifications for phone ring volumes). I am still not convinced that this is a way I'd like this...

So... this means that Android wear is behaving like "master" in this phone-watch situation...
[Huawei Watch] cerisu:
There is option in android wear app that if watch is connected the phone is muted. I wondered that too at the long time. But now phone rings allso, no matter if watch is sinent onr not.
[Huawei Watch] PeeHoo:
Thx a lot... Didn't realized that setting before..
[Huawei Watch] stndra:
yes, i facing same issue too. it heat up alot during charging and restart itself few times. now i have to turn it off and unplug from charger
[Huawei Watch] Asiier:
Okay, is not just me hahaha.

I moved back to Stock Preview 4, now I'm going to try the custom kernel on stock and see If it have the same outcome...

Edit: Seems like everything works fine with Stock Preview 4 + Latest Negative Kernel, that's good
[Huawei Watch] bizum1:
Hi, rom works great but,,, ;)

After full wipe and flashing rom it works rather slow and battery drain is awful. Like 10% every 2h.

I did install negalite kernel and changed cpu governor to interactiveX, max cpu speed to 998 (originally was 787?)

Now it works smooth and battery life is much better.

Maybe you should change default governor to other than smartmax?
[Huawei Watch] adrok76:
Can't seem to get adb access with this ROM installed. Fastboot works and returning to factory img gets adb access back. Any ideas?
[Huawei Watch] SirTurbo:
doesnt look as it is really caused by the rom. adb works as a charme at my watch. Did you forget to activate developer options and grant adb access?

So, i am using this rom for a while now. actual with the nega kernel. (any way to install the stock without flashing the whole rom again?)

not sure it is suckz battery. have flashed the battery friendly option.

but thats not my story for today:)

whatsapp: still doesnt work. thought it would, but in reality it only works by DrexteeMessenger i guess. So i can read messages, but not answer.

phone: when i get a call i get to see: Big letter for the caller, full name of the caller, red button to refuse the call. But no button to take it.

actual i connect the watch only by the manager, not as phone device by system bluetooth. maybe that would work, but i would not like it: when i connect (too) it that way, the phone tends to connect to watch instead to headset or radioFSE in car. so the choice (maybe, did not try if i get an "accept call" option then) is to phone EVER with the watch (or the phone itself) or NEVER. at now i use never.

Is it "normal" and do you have this choice too? i really miss the option to talk by watch from time to time...

at the moment it looks to me as if AW 2.0 is a fine enhancement, but many apps and even some system functions worked better by 1.5...
[Huawei Watch] Motawa88:
WhatsApp doesn't work since the launch of Android wear. And it won't ever because WhatsApp devs don't give a ****
[Huawei Watch] adrok76:
Yeah I have enabled developer options and adb debugging. Very strange...
[Huawei Watch] pablo71:
try cleaning cable connection pins and gold contacts on watch (watch will charge even even if dirt or debris prevents data connection) ... if latest adb installed on pc then possible faulty cable? ... I hope you get your issue resolved
[Huawei Watch] adrok76:
Thanks, I will try that, it's just strange that if I flash factory IMG it works. Perfectly fine.. It's just when I have this ROM installed I can't access adb but fastboot works
[Huawei Watch] Pkt_Lnt:
Is your SDK up to date? ADB and fastboot apps have updated quite a few times recently to support Android 7 Nougat, which is this ROM (AW2.0 dev preview). I see others in these forums having problems with some "small" ADB implementations they download that are w-a-y out of date.
