[SM-V700] tizen downgrade android

masterhaides · Mar 25, 2015

Big thanks for this post. I had tried updating to the latest version and it errored on flash. was stuck in download mode and couldn't get kies or odin to flash anything. After scouring the internet and the xda forums, found this post. Also found out after trying 3 different usb cables, it was the cables the whole time that was causing my problems. 3rd times the charm. Thanks XDA

Follow the guide as stated and it does work, fought it at first as well.

Coming from tizen-

Boot to download mode
using Odin
uncheck auto reboot
check re partition and f reset time
select the pit and tar as shown
start flashing

Once it's finished flashing unplug watch and remove from cradle
hold power button down till you see rebooting
push it 10 times or so and then select recovery
wait a minute or so and you will get the error message
plug back up to computer and using a new Odin terminal
uncheck auto reboot and flash recovery as shown
once it finishes reboot by holding power again
boot back to recovery and let it do it's deal
Watch will then reboot and you are done.

Issue comes up if you don't do it exactly as the op stated. Took me a few times to figure out exactly how to do it as well.

I tryed to downgrade from tizen to android.
I was almost successful, however i encountered the touchscreen not working problem.

I was following this post procedure:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2776157

However by mistake i ended up choosing the wrong menu option (recovery) i think
when i should have been using download.

unfortunately choosing either 'Continue' 'Download' or 'Recovery' in the menu results the the samsung logo
bootloop problem. Odin does not see/recognise my watch anymore.

Is there any hardware way to correct this problem, can a chip be reflashed ?, or is my SM-V700 Watch
now officially a brick for life ??

Please help me, i'm desperate at this point

Assume you have fixed it? You can try holding down power again until you see rebooting then press it repeatedly about 10 times and you should get the boot menu.

Did you fixed the loop I have the same problem, I select Reboot or Download mode and loop to the Samsung logo

How I can get out?

Boot Loop

trade said:

No unfortunately i was not able to fix it.
REASON: Odin no longer recognises the watch.
REASON WHY ODIN NO LONGER RECOGNISES THE WATCH: The software/firmware in the watch
that is used to control communication to the outside world
(i.e. USB via Watch Cradle) is corrupted/stuffed.

i took my watch to an official samsung repair centre, and the technician told me that the only way to flash firmware was by samsungs 'Download' or 'Recovery' options.
These options no longer work because the firmware needed to make these boot menu options work is faulty/overwritten (i.e. corrupted) :crying::crying:

It is unfortunate, because i did actually correctly flash the NULL ROM onto the watch properly.
The problem was that the screen did not respond to touch (a common issue people have had)
The answer was to re-flash the NULL os again, and the second time the screen would work fine.

When i went to flash NULL the second time over, i was looking at my PC screen (looking at the instructions) and after about 3-4 seconds my watch immediately selected the wrong menu option (menu selection that i had left the watch on). I think this was the 'recovery' menu option.

This was a mistake on my part in terms of timing, i should have keep pressing the watch button at least once every second (to keep the watch cycling through the menu) until i was ready to choose the correct option (i.e. 'download' option instead of 'recovery' option) - Just very bad timing issue on my part. I have since bought a Gear 2 watch.

Morale: Just remember to be careful about the timing of the watch menu options.

What ever menu option is highlighted WILL be chosen by default after about 3-4 seconds UNLESS you keep pressing the watch button at least once every second.

NOTE 1: It seems that there are no companys/business's in the world that repair/trade samsung watch parts.
NOTE 2: The official Samsung Repair centre told me that sumsung DO have parts for their watches, But that they dont give these parts to repair centres....
NOTE 3: According to 2 other samsung repair centres, a brand new watch motherboard would cost MORE
then the cost of a brand new watch itself.

I hope my tragedy story will be used as a good lesson to those watch flashers out there.

Revert back to Tizen

After successfully reverting back to Android to try to get it to work with CM12, had partial success but stuck trying to revert back to tizen. Everytime I use ODIN to flash Tizen stock it stops at Bootloader flash and then does nothing and gets hot. Any ideas as have to disconnect and reflash Android back to get it working again??
