Guys I have a 1/8 2100 which is rooted via framaroot and Supersu installed. I've read loads of posts saying install open recovery script via goomanager, problem is I don't have a menu button in goomanager. So I click on flash rom and it asks if I have recovery installed, I choose no and to search and download one for me. It finds TWRP and downloads it but doesn't flash it. I can locate it in goomanager/downloads but how do I install it

Yeah...you have to root device before you can flash recovery.
It'll be available in a next few days - I'm sure...

Routings not a problem, it's done already

On 2100? Latest firmware?
Why don't you use then goomanager?

Use xposed module to reduce size / layouts of app and you'll see btn.

If course I'm not 100% that's the problem, I still haven't received my watch...but it should be OK

Don't know but my guess would be -
TS have unlocked bootloader, so that means you can flash custom kernels.

I guess some dev use boot.img (kernel) add recovery in it and you could fastboot that or flash using some other tool...

I repeat - I still don't have my TS, so all this is just something I think they did.
I'm sure there explanation in OP (thread where's that method)

But if you are already rooted, goomanager should work - at least it would work on phones...

I've downloaded the TWRP. Img file through search for it in goomanager. For some reason probably down to dpi, there's no menu option at the top of the app like there is normally, so there's no option to install open recovery script. With this. img file, can it not be flashed via stock recovery

I didn't know there is stock recovery :)

As I said, I'll know more when my watch comes...
It shouldn't be that hard but Omate fuc**d us all...

Develipers editon, yeah right...
Crappie firmware, not rooted...uff...

I think KS will never see me again.
It's one thing to fail but to make fouders or backers total idiots - hmm...I'm not buying that...

But we'll see which firmware will my watch have...it's like kids playing and sending those watches...

I mean...I'm trying to get my tracking nr from them for a three days?!

I cannot make goo manager work for installing twrp. I can't find the script.

Is there another simple way to install twrp recovery ?
