[MOD] Convert your Chinese Wear OS to Global Wear OS

rcky844 · Nov 19, 2019

If you bought your Android Wear devices in China, and decided to install Google on it without actually installing Global ROM, you are in the right place. This tool lets you convert your Chinese Wear OS ROM to a "Global ROM". It works by deleting the Chinese Wear OS locale file, and install Google Platy Store on your device.

Why should you use this way?
If your watch have different internals then the global version like my TicWatch Pro that I bought in China, the watch can install global ROM, but the global ROM don't have NFC support, and it is more lag then before. So I search for days and I found out this way.

Tested Devices
TicWatch Pro China Version
(More device testing coming soon, it should with any WearOS devices with custom recovery project.)

It works with any WearOS running China ROM devices. Flash it with TWRP or any other custom recovery project.

Hope that Xiaomi could allow a way to unlock bootloader.

I think we can't dump recovery.img without root or custom recovery right? It's quite impossible....

Yea I know, there used to be a glitch that allow it. I think it is patched by this point. And I need the custom recovery to port a custom recovery so if you have anyway just dump it

how do you get this screen? can you please provide the steps?

Same as other android devices:
- ADB debugging turn on through Developer option
- using the following common commands:

adb bootloader reboot --> to boot to fastboot
fastboot oem unlock --> you will see that screen.

If you process I'm not sure it (unlocking) works 100% or not, but it's quite no use now, you can't do anything else after unlocking it and it also may break OTA updates.

It didn't unlock the watch. It will do a factory reset, but after that the device is still locked.

Maybe try with Mi Unlock Tool.
