Yes.

I already have all the scatter files and copies of all the firmwares. What I don't have is the recovery that is on those watches so that I can see why it's so different. I can't trust the recovery image I have from the 0527 firmware because the package I received is semi-corrupt.
will put it on my webspace and provide the link on sunday

I can send you the original recovery from the 0527 firmware if you need it. Still have it here

I blew my own recovery before I did any backup, but Omate_TrueSmart_20140513.103530_V2.0.zip gave me a functional stock recovery. Do you have this one ?

Yes. Someone provided it for me.

Actually, what I need is for someone to go into an adb shell (who owns an aluminum unit) and type this command (requires root):

adb shell
su
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 print

And copy/paste the result here. From there I'll be able to compare and make adjustments and try to compile a new recovery.

Sorry friend,

you wrote below you have copies of all scatter file and firmwares! If it's true please share the files with me.
I'am looking for the scatter files and firmwares for the 512/4 2100MHz TS.
My watch has a brocken firmware I think. Failure during flashing the firmware with sp-flash witout saving. Error message - BROM_ERROR: S_BROM_CHECKSUM16_MEM_RESULT_DIFF (2020).
I don't no how but I believe I can restor the watch with the right firmware and scatter file.
Thank you for helping

That's a tough one. Let me see what I can find.

Tweaked APKs

I used this ROM as a basis for a custom ROM for the Abardeen F80, with success. Thanks a lot to Dees_Troy and others who contributed to this ROM, because fixing problems in the stock F80 ROM was hopeless.

I made layout tweaks to several APKs that can be back-ported to this ROM, so I thought I'd share them here.
  • Contacts.apk: optimized the layout of the dialer, resolution tweak is no longer needed.
  • Phone.apk: similar fix for in-call dial pad.
  • MtkBt.apk: taken from the F80 ROM. This one adds support for Bluetooth input devices. I didn't test tethering, but when comparing with the original, I am pretty sure this one only adds features without removing any.
  • SoundRecorder.apk: now usable without resolution tweaks.
  • SetupWizard.apk: made the ‘start’ button accessible so the wizard can be used normally.
  • framework-res.apk: improved lock screen layouts (especially pattern lock).

The APKs can be swapped on a live ROM if you know what you are doing, but the safest way is to make the modifications in the system image and re-flash it, and purge the Dalvik cache. Of course, use at your own risk.

I also found a way to make OOM settings stick: because something seems to overwrite them after init.d, do the call in a ‘delayed fork’. Add this to the end of /etc/init.d/99loki:

Code:
(
sleep 30;
echo "4096,8192,16384,32768,49152,65536" > /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree;
) &

Recovery problem

Hi Dees_Troy,
thank you very much for your work. For me the problem is that after installed TWRP recovery with success from SP Flash Tool I cannot go into recovery. I did not found any documentation to do this, then I tried pressing both buttons from watch turned off. The a menu appears showing me to press power button for recovery or home button for "factory": I press power but the watch normally boots and no recovery appears.

Many thanks

You need to go into settings and turn off quick boot. Then do what you did last and you'll get into TWRP

I've the EU version 1/8/2100 I think the 4th shipment. I did not buy the watch from kickstarfer but from omate pre-order site.
Baseband version: MOLY.WR8.W1315.MD.WG.MP.V 4, 2013/08/14 18:16
Kernel version: 3.4.5
Custom build version: Omate_Truesmart_20140513.10 3530_V2.0

I've used both the "openrecovery-twrp-2.7.0.0-omatesmartwatch2.img" and "openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.0-omatesmartwatch2.img" installed with MTK Flash Tool using instructions on the TWRP site.

I did a test also with "openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.0-omatesmartwatch2.img" but the same result.
If I hit power butto to enter recovery, I see omate logo for several seconds, then the watch normally boots.

I found another TWRP image "twrp-2.7.0.0-omate-x201.img" into the "TS-EU-0706-May_Shipment.rar" file (I cannot remember where I found this file on xda) and it works!

This afternoon I hope to have time to install the ROM :eek::eek::eek:

Yes, but nothing to do...

---------- Post added at 09:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:58 PM ----------

I don't know if it make sense but I solved doing this:
after installing "Bluetooth Tether ROM" I installed the "TS-EU-0706-patch" from "07.06 EnSec STOCK Secure + Root" ROM.
So I was able to boot the phone and try "Bluetooth Tether ROM"!

Now the problem is that bluetooth tether from my smartphone doesn't work. I followed instructions but no internet connection trough the smartphone also if on the smartwatch it says "Connect Group Ad-Hoc Network with smartphone Succesfully!"

I shared internet via bluetooth connection to another smarphone with success, so I think the problem is with the smartwatch :crying:

---------- Post added at 09:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:07 PM ----------

I did a try with "monxDIFIED™ EZ SMART" ROM.
It works (without installing the "TS-EU-0706-patch") and also bluetooth thetering from a smartphone.
But I like to have "Bluetooth Tether ROM", because it seems more polite (less preinstalled apps) and I prefer the rotated camera.

What can I do to get "Bluetooth Tether ROM" with bluetooth tether working? :p

thank you

You need to flash a kernel that's supports it.

It's no surprise that the MONX ROM works for you because it's a kang of this ROM and includes the proper boot.img.
