[KERNEL] Sony Smartwatch 3 Kernel [LCA43]

[Deleted member 5450625]

A few days of using the Marshmallow kernel later, here's what I see (Of course, all is expected due to it being a beta build):
Lots of random reboots. Mostly when using the watch's motion gestures (for scrolling through cards and so forth). One time I set an alarm and instead of alarming it rebooted.
The watch seems like it's connected to my phone (no crossed out cloud symbol and the Android Wear app says "Connected"), but notifications and app updates don't go through until a factory reset (then after a while they stop going through).

On a semi-related note; does anyone have a stock Marshmallow boot.img?

Hey Alex, just wanted to say thanks again. This kernel still working great for me, really low battery usage.

I don't really see the point in upgrading to MM on wear just yet, given the reports of random reboots and the apparent lack of SuperSu/root support. I played with the MM wear install for a while, I don't see anything worth upgrading to - I don't use gestures and the new gestures don't seem that great.

Marshmallow does have a *much* cooler boot animation, but I grabbed that from the marshmallow system files and installed it into my lollipop build, so I reckon that's all the update I need for now

I think try to spend little more time with MM. If google/Sony don't release update- downgrade to 5.1.1 too.

OP updated with version 2.20!

Version updated with Google 3.10-marshmallow-mr1-wear-release sources.

PS. Personally I will try to stay on 5.1.1, as more stable.

2 All: How turn off OTA?

 

[alex6600]

OP updated with version 2.21!

Fixes to LZ4 algo (forgot in 2.20).

 

[alex6600]

OP updated with version 2.22.

This is version 2.12.1 with updates android-wear-6.0.1_r0.5 kernel sources.

Soon I hope to make Lollipop ROM with this kernel and without annoying update to 6.0.1.

 

[alex6600]

OP updated with version 2.23 & 2.23.1.


Version 2.23:
- 4 active cores
- Updated compiler flags for use NEON optimization.
- Minor changes.

Version 2.23.1
Have same changes as 2.23, but:
- 2 active cores
- diasbled UKSM

Try this versions, and give feedback about battery life and performance.

 

[alex6600]

OP updated with versions 2.25 & 2.25.1

In version:
Some optimizations in Defconfig for reduce memory consumption.
Changed CrossCompiler to optimized for Cortex-A7 from Christopher83

Hello and thanks again.... Which version is supposed to be battery friendly? 2 cores or 4 cores enabled?
Thanks

2-cores version must be battery friendly, a little.
And 2-cores version don't have UKSM. This may reduce cpu usage, and battery consumption little more.
Try both, and give feedback

Yeah I resest it and even tried setting the fw back to 5.0.2 do you think it has something to do with my phone I'm on existenz v7 Xperia z2. I get the error android wear wont run without Google play services installed on the phone. It's been like this since the 2nd time I unlocked BL then rooted then flashed an older version of this kernel. All I did was reset back to normal then flash an older fw which then pushed the lca43 update through. Apps like watchmaker delete themselves too it's quite annoying and I made a thread onit but nobody helped me solve the problem which is why I came here since I previously had the kernel installed just before it messed up I was thinking reinstalling the kernel would help. I'm sorry if this is off topic but I feel as this is the only way of getting help. Thanks for anyone who reads this.

I have run into this error randomly. Try and clear cache and data for Google Play Services and Google Play Store on your smartphone, reboot phone..

I had tried that even restoring them but the good news is after updating my phone to marshmallow the problems seize to exist now which is good I think the Xposed framework may have been causing issues thanks for the reply anyway

Good to hear you got the issue resolved. I have never used xposed and I still got those errors randomly....

Hello, I use the Smartwatch on my Freestyle Libre. Actually, the clock is almost everything deactiviert which only goes to the battery consumption to throttle.

It must synonymous only by NFC Scan and the values to the mobile phone forward.

As far as everything goes ...

But the battery consumption is very high.

I am aware that I can only help me when I send you logs. Say what programs are running and so.

How do I do that?

I hope as far as I can be helped here is already a bit ago that someone has written here.


Kind regards and thank you.
