[APP] Reset Wear Client - Switch phones without factory reset

[Trafalgar Square]

Thank you.

This didn't worked for me. My phone doesn't find the LG G Watch R.

Hi! I uploaded a new and fully functioning and more useful tutorial using a part of this code. Check it out!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android-wear/development/tutorial-android-wear-2-phones-ios-t3263546

have you tested this with latest AW client ?

EDIT : never mind, I tried it.......and it's working ! Now I have my Gear 2 connected (not at the same time obviously) with 2 Android phones.

EDIT 2 : nope, still doesn't work....I successfully paired my Gear 2 with my business phone (was not able to do that before), but when switching back to my private phone (after workday was done) I wasn't able to switch back via the Beelink app on the watch.

Only way to switch back, was to clear the data of "com.google.android.gms && reboot" so I could pair again with my private phone.

Thanks !

Use the method in the other thread post 55 for Android and iPhone. It works for me.

Thank god I read this. Just a matter of connecting the watch to PC and 2 ADB commands, saves 2 hours worth of re-setting up. Work of genius.

I can't do it after new marshmellow update on my LG G Watch. Solutions?

Would be interesting for me, too. I'm not updating to Marshmallow as long as I'm not sure i can continue to use my gwatch with 2 phones.
What exactly does not work? Do you get an error message?

Can you confirm you still got root with marshmallow?

 

[mcarfixer]

I no longer have root on Marshmallow. I haven't tried to re-root yet.

 

[OliverB82]

Just installed the Marshmellow Update and rooted as descriped here.

Reset of Wear Client via this app still works - I can still use both phones with one watch.
It is, however, not as snappy as it was with lollipop under the hood...sometimes watch hangs after selecting "Clear GMS" and I have to reboot manually.

Tried this between my Android tablet and my iPhone.

It seems that the first pairing after a factory reset changes a lot of system permissions and settings around on the watch.

When paired first to Android, then running the two adb commands, the watch never shows up on bluetooth devices for my iPhone.

When paired first to iOS, the watch will eventually pair to the Android device, and if I leave the Android Wear app alone on the Android tablet, it'll get to the main screen, but it'll always stay stuck at "Trying to connect..."

WatchMaker is never able to connect to the watch either (and I've already installed the watch APK beforehand, via adb while it was connected to the iPhone.)

In logcat, I get a bunch of these messages:

ContextImpl: Calling a method in the system process without a qualified user: android.app.ContextImpl.startService:1221 android.content.ContextWrapper.startService:581 android.content.ContextWrapper.startService:581 com.google.android.clockwork.settings.BluetoothConnectionStateChangeReceiver.onReceive:29 android.app.ActivityThread.handleReceiver:2725

Hope this can help someone out that's more proficient than I am, lol.

I just did a reset on my watch and reconnected and installed reset wear but now no icon to click on anymore and advanced settings shows that it is installed but no icon to click on anywhere anymore
Am I missing something on this install. I installed via adb

 

[shawnaye]

I don't think there is anything you can do at this point. You should have authorized your PC when you still had working watch connection.

THANKS FOR THIS LIFESAVING HACK.
Truly simple and just a matter of following the steps.
For those without ADB search Minimal ADB, and remember to allow adb on your wear.

True, Been using Minimal ADB on my Windows 10 PC for ages...

It worked for me but is there a command to disable discoverability? because the watch keeps on trying to pair every time my bluetooth turns off and on

 

[yakie996]

is there a command to stop the discovery of the watch?

 

[droidriz]

Aprreciate the work done!
Works fine with all adb commands thanks bro!

It`s a real lifesaver!!! Works reat with GwatchR with 6.0.1 (not rooted) and HTC M8 with RESURRECTION REMIX 7.1.1 Nougat ROM
Thanks!!!

Hi,
Actually we can do all this with just an Advanced Settings app.
It has a "Clear data" button, well and the restart button, and a checkbox to make blutooth discoverable.
So the Advanced Settings app is all you need here.

I have a Huawei Watch and would like to pair it with 2 Android phones...from what I read, this app is useful to switch between 2 phones...is it possible to allow both the phones paired at the same time to the watch..i would like to receive the notifications from both the phones to the same watch simultaneously...

I don't think that's possible with how AW works. The watch looks like it can only be paired with one phone at a time.
