    Me too. Although mine is R765 I think maybe something is broken with the update (no audible text notifications, see other thread), so they pulled it?

    Post Android 2.0 Developer preview available for Huawei Watch

    My bluetooth was unstable until I force unpaired from my phone's bluetooth, and reset the watch to factory. I think the phone was trying to bluetooth to both the new (2.0) and old (1.0) watch.

    -Use something like Winzip to zip up the files you extracted from the APK file. Make sure you zip it up without the META-INF subdirectory, and that the structure looks more or less like the zip file you started with. -Jarsigner and Keytool come with Java JDK 8. Install this first and they will...

    As I said in my post above #21 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64426216&postcount=21), Huawei uses the cheap black charging pucks for their Huawei Honor Band Zero, which is why these exist in Asia and not anywhere else. (It's named Huawei Band in the US, but may still be...

    Post Force full color watch face all the time

    Just use a watchface app like Watchmaker, and make/modify your own color ambient watchface. You can choose what to enable/disable on the ambient. It's probably a good idea to turn off a sweeping seconds hand, as the OLED display will take a battery hit when it has to change pixels on the...

    Post Update to 1.4

    That's to be expected. Last time Google released, it was the manufacturers who didn't have Wifi that were able to release quite a bit earlier than the ones who did. This time it's the manufacturers with watches without speakers.

    Those cradles were meant for the Huawei Honor Band Zero (named Huawei Band in the US). But it seems likely (unconfirmed) that they work for the Huawei Watch as well. Would be nice to get a spare black one for $10 as opposed to $40 for the official white

    They canned the Black Stainless Mesh around the same time they redesigned the Black to have the tick marks around the bezel, and the Gold to have a pie-crust bezel. Not to worry though. You can get some third party ones on Amazon. Just search Amazon.com for Huawei Watch Band Mesh. There are...

    Post Android Wear and iOS connectivity

    I took a quick look and it seems that the face has some scripts with it (hand movement, color changing). If you could wipe the scripts using Watchmaker, make sure the face still works, and export the .watch file again, that would help. It would help even more if you could inject the contents...

    Post Android Wear and iOS connectivity

    It would be nice to have a bunch of watch-only APKs ready to be sideloaded. Dunno if we can include re-signed watchmaker in the list though since it's technically modifying someone else's program. It would hard to maintain though, with version updates and compatibility between round and square...

    After having Android Wear for the last month, I've updated my last assessment. The time sync is a huge plus. If I reboot my watch, I don't need to have my Android phone around to do a time sync. Also I've NEVER lost a notify using Android Wear and with no lag so far. Aerlink was 95%...

    You don't need to root. Just find the phone APK file, rename it to ZIP, find the mobile APK file inside the res/raw folder, and use adb install on it. This post is about getting a customized watchmaker onto the watch, but you can do the same and skip the part about modifying the APK...

    I think I'm the only one who left the bezel alone. Getting to a mirror finish takes a long time! The first pic is from right after sanding the paint off. The second pic is after 4 passes of buffing with the dremel. The stainless body gets very hot! I run it under water after buffing half...

    Post Android Wear and iOS connectivity

    Five reasons I chose Android Wear 1) 75% of when I look at my watch, it's to see the time. Always-on screen is a must 2) If you walk into a "dumb" watch store, 90% of the watches are round. I want my smartwatch to be round too. Square may be good for UI display, but it doesn't make me think...

    So I managed to get the paint off the body. It was a lot quicker than I thought. Just a light touch with the dremel, and it's gone. The parts around the crown and the bezel were impossible to do with the dremel, so I ended up using a dremel bit and sanding it slowly by hand. Afterwards, the...

    Post Android Wear and iOS connectivity

    I've found something mildly annoying: The default preferences for Watchmaker is that it turns on "Vibrate on Disconnect" and "Vibrate on Connect". During a processor-intensive game on the iPhone, it would lose Bluetooth connection to the watch for 1 second or so, which causes a couple of watch...

    Getting close! I was able to decode the watchmaster APK file, put my own files in the assets folder, unsign it, re-sign it, and get it installed. Now I'll try either looking inside decoded xml files for fields to change, or trying to retrofit my faces onto the existing ones.

    Post Android Wear and iOS connectivity

    I agree with all of this. Aerlink was a good program at the time, and I really appreciate all the hard work people have put into it. But I'm never going back to it. Aerlink would occasionally have a missed notification or need a bluetooth pairing PIN. Android Wear has been 100% reliable for...

    That's weird... It shows up on my apps list even after several reboots. Did you use "adb install flappybird.apk"? And Watchmaker and Facer show up as selectable watch faces on the face selection screen both on the watch and in the Android Wear iOS app. I'll try Pujie Black and Skymaster tonight.

    So has anyone tried sideloading watchmaker into their Wear? I kind of remember that sideloading involved bluetooth ADB to an android phone's Android Wear, which would relay to a PC via a USB cable. If this is the case, then it would be difficult since Android Wear for iOS has no ADB relay...

    Even companies with incredible customer service (e.g. Apple) have legacy devices left in the dust when it comes to software updates. I remember when iPhone 4S and iPad mini both got Siri, but iPad 2 did not, even though they had identical processors and similar internals.
