Hi all, Android Wear 2.0 Nougat is finally here for LG G Watch!


Installation:
  1. Unlock your bootloader on your watch (if it's not unlocked).
  2. Download latest kernel (boot.img) and system image (system.img) to your PC
  3. Reboot to fastboot
  4. Flash those images using fastboot (fastboot flash boot boot.img, fastboot flash system system.img)
  5. Run fastboot -w (it will factory reset your watch)
  6. Reboot
  7. Done! ;)
Wipe is recommended!
Also, you can check out this video guide by @CedArctic: https://youtu.be/mHRZWZes4jY

P.S. Use "shake wrist" gesture to open apps drawer

Nice, we have a telegram group of people who speak Spanish with G Watch and we were all waiting for this port, hopefully it works perfectly and do to echoes in the community about it, since I think this could have been done from the beginning Google and LG, I hope the project goes forward and becomes 100% functional.

Thanks for the work done to all devs who were part of this project, without you this would not be possible. :D

Alright... I think i'm having some issues. First of all, I can't change the watch face. Second, I don't know what gesture to open the app drawer. I have tried all of them from the marshmallow update but none of those work.

Click to expand...
Ditto, same here.... black watch face with white numbers and hands. No gesture will work and phone will not connect.

I just did a factory reset and cache wipe via recovery. Subsequent reboot took a LOOOONNG time, hung on the 4 scrolly circles.
Watch seems to be responsive so far, just going through the phone setup now.
