I would really like to help you out getting a dump, but I need some help first.

To make a dump you need root, but for root you need a root boot img and then it's not the img you're looking for.

I have the latest stock rom and just unlocked the bootloader. But now I don't know how to continue.

If you can help me to help you, just PM me. ;) I don't want to spam this thread with OT.
[LG G Watch] ab123321:
adb shell wm density 180. Np

You can dump partitions from recovery since there is root access by default. You can do it, for example, using dd tool like

dd if=/dev/block/platform/bla/bla/by-name/boot of=/sdcard/boot.img

P. S. I would recommend to use same "adb shell" on PC, it works like copy-paste
[LG G Watch] buglyb:
That's an Huawei P8 Lite 2017 android 7.0.
[LG G Watch] migueldvp:
The rom is rooted by default? and what is the default density on the watch? if i want to go back to normal..

Solved the default density are 240p.

There's the G watch with 2.0 and quad core build.prop
[LG G Watch] reepje123:
Thanks. It took a while to figure it all out, but here are the boot and the system img:

Thanks. I just flashed dual core boot image (without wipe) and everything works fine.
[LG G Watch] manuel_fantoni:
I noticed that with LineageOs and other rom based on it the watch can't add google account and share phone data connection :(
[LG G Watch] Duveral:
Running with no problem at all. I do can download and install things from Play Store using the watch. Just a little big laggy. Great work!!:D
[LG G Watch] subhamnayan:
Any fix for connection issues with playstore and Google Assistant .........Both doesn't get regular internet connection.They work for some minutes and then got disconnected while notifications work regularly

Please Help
[LG G Watch] manuel_fantoni:
Which phone and rom are you using on the phone? I had similar issues with some custom rom!
[LG G Watch] subhamnayan:
No any custom rom it's Galaxy J1 Ace J110H Running Android 4.4

Ijust rooted my phone and made some changes with "Kernel Auditor" inside kernel.

Before a factory reset i also used LSpeed it also made some kernel related changes.
[LG G Watch] Axel85:
For anyone having the same problem as me, with this message in the watch :

improve contact recognition, Google needs to use your device contacts

When trying to call or send a text , I found the solution. Apparently it doesn't work with Google now, but only with assistant. I had to set my phone to English and then it opened Google assistant permissions request page.

With this one now I can do everything. Can anyone else confirm this same problem?

---------- Post added at 10:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:20 PM ----------

Incredible .... I changed the phone language back to Italian ,and now everything works, so turn out you have only to change phone language to English to pass those permissions screen in Google assistant, that you can turn back to your main language and should work
[LG G Watch] migueldvp:
I cant use the Messenger app it says that i need to install messenger on my phone and opens google play on the phone.. But messenger is already installed...
[LG G Watch] Thisisabadname:
Uninstall messenger from watch. Then you can at least reply to the messages.
[LG G Watch] Axel85:
Which phone? I start to believe that to run perfectly wear 2.0 you need nougat on the smartphone,since Google assistant in english was needed for me to at least unlock the contact sharing feature that was hanging me ,now it's working even with phone in Italian and with Google assistant disabled in favour of Google now . Many users here on xda have the last android version and the phone in English so maybe they don't notice the problem . For me that I'm Italian Google assistant it's not available even if I'm in a nexus 6 with 7.1.1 , I'm stuck with Google now that losted the contact sharing feature removed in the last updates,because it should be just silently enabled. Maybe with a stock N iteration is even less painful to make it work because it's a Google product and for sure they test it on stock android. Any problem occurred with any other fork or old versions is not their priority . That is how I believe everything works

They left us with nexus 6 with android 7.1.1 (I will not receive 7.1.2 or 8) and an android wear 1.5 device (g watch will not receive 2.0 in they're mind) with a f***** bug for months . This bug is only present with android 7.1.1+google dialer+wear 1.5+ another Bluetooth device like car stereo . When you receive a call, the phone enter the do not disturb mode and sometimes after the end it doesn't go back to normal. The bug is not present if any of the previously mentioned requirements is missing . So me and many other users in the same situation rised a war in the Google bug tracking forum because it's a frustrating bug. But they don't given a **** and closed the question with the comment : works as expected

This long story is to tell you that maybe they test stability only on they're last products

For me this bug disappeared with the 2.0 update so **** Google and thanks to [MENTION=7534963]ab123321[/MENTION]
[LG G Watch] aloknm:
Noticed this on my phone running 7.0, it asked me to install the beta app but that didnt change anything
[LG G Watch] Axel85:
Is your phone language in English with Google assistant enabled?
[LG G Watch] PaniniRS:
help my watch is stuck on the lg logo screen :P
[LG G Watch] magicstick5:
It takes some time to boot. Make sure you do fastboot format userdata and cache. On this thread, there are numerous installations that we're successful. Follow one of those
[LG G Watch] PaniniRS:
tried all of them just noticed on twrp that it says unable to mount '/system'
[LG G Watch] motoralbi:
Posting this here in order to give some feedback.

Installed this on my G Watch.

With only 1 core enabled it had visible lags, so I installed the quad core image with MP decision. Ran pretty well, assistant didn't take long to launch(ready in 1 second, more or less). Battery lasted me for over a day.

Now I'm testing the dual core mp decision boot image. Haven't seen much performance decrease from the quad core one so far. Probably this is the most balanced choice, I'll see how battery goes in the next few days.

I used to be able to use voice input for multiple language in hangouts on wear 1.5. I think the voice input backend may be same as Google now as I set up both primary and secondary language and then it works.

Anyone knows how to achieve this on wear 2.0? It seems to only understand English. It looks like voice engine automatically switched to Google assistant?
[LG G Watch] ab123321:
Works for me. Make sure you have two languages in keyboard settings on your watch
[LG G Watch] migueldvp:
My phone is a Motorola moto G 3 with android 5.1.1 stock. I changed the DPI on the watch to 180 and installed messenger lite, and facebook lite, works very well. Now I can't use the wear browser.. It send me to the installation page of Google Play on the watch and the app is not opening. Only me or someone have this problem too?
[LG G Watch] Axel85:
Happens for me too, I installed browser from phone play store, and then has been automatically installed in watch, opens correctly the first time , and crashed after 5 sec . After the crash when I open it on the watch , send me to the play store page that say it's not compatible
[LG G Watch] ubcjack:
Somehow I couldn't find support for Chinese. What I did was setting - personalization - input methods - Google keyboard - languages - switch off default English but there is no Chinese in the options.

Chinese was supported on 1.5 and also I remember Google support team says Chinese is supported in 2.0

On phone I didn't have to set up Chinese in Google keyboard and it's in voice setting. I can pick primary English and secondary Chinese.

Am I doing it the right way?
[LG G Watch] migueldvp:
For me it never open. Always send me to the google play on the watch..

i tried installing on the phone and send it to the watch, and installing only in the watch but still the same..
[LG G Watch] HaloTechnology:
after installing this my watch reporting that its always charging ? is that a known bug ?

EDIT : never mind its fixed it self though the music player doesn't show my album art why ? anybody have an idea
[LG G Watch] Axel85:
Maybe it's better to sideload a true web browser like opera or dolphin mini, which are optimized for low power and resolution devices. Chrome or Firefox maybe is asking too much.
[LG G Watch] layoup:
I have an issue with my watch after select dissociate / factory reset option in system menu. Now my watch only boot in recovery mode. I tried to format userdata and cache partition without success. I tried to flash again boot.img and system.img but always boot in recovery mode. Somebody knows how to proced to make my watch boot again ?

Bleutooth problems

Hey all

I am having 2 problems with my lg g watch and the latest wear2.0 port so far.

First of all i am having wierd bluetooth connection issues. When i connect my watch to my phone it will stay connected for around 50 seconds and then it will disconnect. When i reconnect it will again disconnect after around 50 seconds. Maybe this is an issue because i am using an iphone 6 for the connection wich may cause the problem.

Second i cant get any internet connection on the watch. Is this because i am using an iphone?

Greetings sieuwe
[LG G Watch] manuel_fantoni:
I had the same issue....

This is the solution that worked for me and i explain step by step for newbies :)

-Reboot in fastboot mode from recovery or switching off the phone pressing the power button and when LG logo appears swift on the screen from top left corner to bottom right corner... use Rootjunky tool (https://xdaforums.com/g-watch/development/script-lg-g-watch-tool-t2820863) for restoring your lg G watch to stock...

-Reboot and when configuration wizard starts on the watch, you have to press the power button (on the back of the watch) so you can skip to watch settings... you have to activate developer settings (pressing many times on 'build number' voice under 'system' -> 'information')... then you have to go in 'developer settings' and switch on the 'adb mode'...

-connect the watch to the pc through the base and using Rootjunky tool you have to 'flash TWRP recovery'...

-reboot the watch in fastboot mode and launch these commands with 'Minimal ADB and Fastboot' tool:

fastboot format cache

fastboot format userdata

fastboot flash boot [insert path of downloaded boot.img here]

fastboot flash system [insert path of downloaded system.img here]

-then from the watch, using the arrows, restart in recovery mode...

-in TWRP you have to make a 'factory reset'

-from TWRP reboot system (even if it says no system detect, it starts)

-Done

Tip for all: if you have to do a factory reset and dissociate your phone, don't do it from the watch settings (if you do that, you have the same problem of rebooting in recovery mode), but restart in recovery and do a factory reset from TWRP... in this way you can restrt the watch without reflash anything!
[LG G Watch] layoup:
Thanks a lot, I will try this.
[LG G Watch] manuel_fantoni:
Let me know ! :good:
[LG G Watch] darren1:
I have just flashed the dual core version having been using the quad core version for a few days and noticed all four cores are still being used at times. I checked using AIDA64.
[LG G Watch] migueldvp:
Thank you for this, i will be carefull when i need to dissosiat my watch, the solution is doing a factory reset on the WATCH from TWRP, nope?

yo do a mistake on your post, i think, see it.
[LG G Watch] manuel_fantoni:
Factory reset only from TWRP and the system restarts without looping in recovery mode

not working at all, have followed every step device is unlocked and now its stuck in bootloader mode and wont exit did full wipe as well.

---------- Post added at 11:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:15 AM ----------

trwp also isnt working at all it goes to boot recovery then fails and goes back to bootloader
[LG G Watch] motoralbi:
Firstly, have you unlocked the bootloader and set up the watch after it?

Secondly, have you installed the squashfs compatible twrp?

Finally, have you formatted cache and userdata before flashing boot and system images?

Let's see if we can troubleshoot your issue with this ROM.

ive manually widped date through fastboot and now when the watch does a factory reset no errors are coming up and error 1 isnt showing but still in a boot loop even tried new dory2.0 files to make sure they where not corrupt and no errors on fastboot cmd screen or on watch screen what could the issue be, its now just stuck in a bootloop and wont boot no matter what ive tried.

i have found a script that has rebuilt the device back to stock except it has left the bootloader unlocked untill we have a fix for the issues i at least need a working watch.
[LG G Watch] motoralbi:
I think if you brought it back to stock, now you're good to go. Had you changed the filesysten before(like from squashfs to ext4)?

Anyway, since you got BL unlocked, now you can flash twrp and then boot&system. Make sure you're on squashfs by the way

the device was stock firmware to begin with. i have not changed anything, it is out of box condition i only followed the steps in these threads for this wwatch to get android wear 2.0 which doesnt want to work at all on my lg g watch W100.

[LG G Watch] wizzardsk:
Hi, I guess this image does not support OTA updates, does it?
[LG G Watch] motoralbi:
Before flashing it from fastboot, format both cache and userdata (fastboot format cache ; fastboot format userdata). Then retry.

I suppose not since this is not an official AW2 version.

[LG G Watch] Tomekb530:
can the gesture be changed ? that one to open apps launcher, for me sometimes work sometimes not ;-;
[LG G Watch] motoralbi:
You could install wear launcher from Play store on the watch. It launches the app launcher by touching on the right part of the display.

Otherwise there was an app simulating the power button, if you look in the g watch section you can find it. It requires root.

When it asks you to press the power button, you have to press the reset button you find in the back.
