...Is this really happening??? ^_^

Will donate some cash come payday in a couple days. This is unreal.

So I'm excited. Thanks!

This looks amazing. I would guess no Motorola launcher and actv functions?

Either way I'm incredibly excited and will do my best to provide any productive feedback that I can.

donated 10 bucks to the motoactv fund

Me too $10 to dproldan, keep up the great work! It will be great if u could update your other ROM as well pls.

bluetooth audio

Did anyone try if audio-in (microphone) works with bluetooth headsets? It would be amazing if I could make calls with skype on this rom.
Update: I bought a mono bluetooth (non a2dp) headset and tried it with this rom and Atarii's boot.img with bluetooth profiles. Pairing was successful but neither microphone nor audio worked. I installed the BTmono app to make the headset accessible to apps other than the dialer (which works perfekt on my phone), but no sucess on the motoactv.

Can someone give some feedback on this rom especially if we can install run keeper? Thank
you

I don't think dp is going to share any info on this one until he is further along. You could flash it and see how it goes. If you don't like it you could always go back to beta9 or whatever else you like.

No posts in a while, this project still active? Or dare I say... actv? ha ha ok bad joke.

This looks great, but is it possible to get Market on it? I downloaded the APK, but when I open Play Store it tells me I will now add a google account to the device, but when I click Yes, I get returned to home-screen..

EDIT: I see in the pictures you attached, you have Play Store, so I guess i must have done something wrong?

Thanks dproldan.
Another question, how do I set a keyboard as default, everytime I reboot my watch, I have to reactivate Flit Keyboard..

tips with this rom

1) install superuser via cwm from http://androidsu.com/superuser/ , not necessary, but important for most of my uses
2) install google apps via cwm, I had trouble with the recommended 20110828, so i went with gapps-gb-20110613-signed.zip which worked first time
3) drop the lcd density so more fits on screen. I like 90, but 100 is probably more practical
4) install mx player and the recommended armv7 codecs from play store, even without hardware accel working, there's just enough oomf in there for software decoding of most sd formats


more to come

Does anyone have BT tethering working on this ROM? Is it supported by the stack? If not, is there anything I can do to try and get it working?

Further to the above question: does anyone have bluetooth anything working with this rom? When I flashed it, it seemed like the names of bluetooth devices were bugged (as in - I couldn't see any, and when I paired with something by it's code instead, any app that wanted the name just crashed).

I just want to make sure it's the rom and not something I did.

When you say bluetooth tethering, do you mean something using the watch's wifi connection? Or do you mean the watch using your phone/pc net connection?

the first time i installed reactv, my bluetooth could scan for devices and would even pair with a bluetooth headset, but would not play any sound. a few days later after i'd accidentally wiped my data in cwm instead of running a backup and restored most of my settings with titanium i noticed sound was playing through my headset.

bluetooth tethering i can't test as my other android device lost this function in the latest official update and i haven't gotten around to working around that yet

Has anyone else been able to rebuild reactv from source? i've tried following the directions and can get a compiled disk image, but it always hangs on boot before the adb service kicks in.

I've been trying, but the instructions are not as clear as they could be (especially the bits about fixing user tags in android.mk files?). It would be nice if someone who knows how to do it would put out a script.

I have a script that does what I THINK needs to be done (except for fixing the android.mk files - because I have no idea what to do there), but I'm not 100% sure, and when it gets to the point of running make, it cannot find a makefile
