[ROM][KK][4.4.2][STOCK]Omate TrueSmart IRONMAN Firmware

[testimony]

@Blufires I'm using smartlauncher (available on PlayStore) and gravitybox with expanded desktop (immersive status bar) enabled. Status bar pull down has not bothered me since then.
Maybe you can try the same.

 

[gerhardo]

I've tried everything I can think of but I can't get GravityBox to enable swipe down status bar reliably (I've only been able to drag it down once or twice).

Did you set fullscreen on? works great for me.
Dont know if I should see it as a feature or not, but statusbar and topmost section is accessible also with NoTouch app.

I've found a great alternative though. I've just installed NiLS Lockscreen Notifications. It comes with a 2x2 widget that includes a clock and shows notifications. I've disabled the lockscreen/watchface and placed the NiLS widget on my default homescreen. This gives me clock & notifications on my main screen, and turns on the screen when a new notification arrives. After adding some settings switches to the next homescreen over, I don't need a notification bar.

There are many ways to do it.
I have Chronos on the main Nova screen for time and battery, have not seen a big need for notifications - see if I use data and sync permanently. (I have a SIM with data)

Thanks for the great rom and giving life to Omate TS. I thought TS was going to die a natural death with no support from Omate.

Anyway, I have successfully updated to this rom. But after the update find that Awesome on/off does not work.

Anyone has this problem?

Thanks

The ROM has no drivers for sensors, so accelratometer, gyroscope etc will not work.
This ROM was made for the Umeox x202, there are no known drivers for x201.

Oic, thanks for the reply.

So looks like there is no way to flick to see the time. I guess this also explains why the battery life has improved so much after the update.

Cheers

Installed with success to my 512/4 EU omate truesmart.
Thanks so much Kuronosan and other developpers, my bluetooth heart monitor is working now

Unable to install

Everytime I try to install I get an error regarding S_FT_Readback_Fail. I've tried the newest version of SP tools and an older version, same thing.

The error occurs when reading back a flashed image, SPFT cannot store it. Full disk or read only?

Otherwise just continue swapping cables, USB, PCs until you succeed. MediaTek flash is flaky.

Thank you for the fantastic rom..

omate is responsive, huge increase on the battery life ... 3days and counting

Holy crap! Been waiting for this a while, thank you so much Kuronosan!! Hopefully 1900mhz 3G modem drivers can eventually be added. Does 2G data work at all?

 

[tim2lman]

2G works fine. I can't wait for 1900mhz as well, but whatcha gonna do...

 

[speedyink]

Thanks for the info. Might flash it anyways, don't use a ton of data on the watch..

Thanks Kuronosan, Lokifish, and everyone involved. BTW I have the US 1900 1/8gb version and my 3g works just fine. I just restored a backup of my nvram after I ran the update. I used the older version 3 of SPFlash tool. (The newer version gave me the brom error)

This is intriguing...Anyone else have success with this?

Had some trouble getting the flash tool to work, but after 2 reboots it finally stayed connected. I flashed on a 1/8/1900 unit. I was hesitant to lose sensor function but then i realized that besides using the shake app to wake the watch, i didn't really use the sensors at all. Besides, all the improvements this rom offers is too much to pass up!(as well as kitkat's supposed lower memory requirement). Now as i wait for my twrp backup to finish, I have to ask myself whether art is worth it on this watch.

Edit: I notice a theme option under Display in the settings. How does that work? Is that for Cyanogenmod themes?

My favorite way to get notifications is with ACDisplay.

On this ROM, I'm trying to do a app+app data backup using the Titanium Backup, but fails saying their no sufficient space although ES explorer says I have >3Gb space left.
I am already rooted without Ext SD. I also have Xposed module installed if that can help.
Has anyone had the same issue? Any Advice? Thx a lot.

Try messing with the backup location in preferences. It might be trying to backup to phone storage and not internal storage (which are actually 2 separate things btw)

I tries choosing different location (incl. Ext SD) and also the suggest solutions : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2572354 but to no avail. BTW, I do not see /storage/emulated/legacy/ folder on my device. Is that normal?

Any additional advice/recommendation is much appreciated. Thanks.

TB requires Xposed AppSettings to change dpi, good sight and another device to understand what happens. No big complaint, it is not like I use the app when on the run..
Mine is set to /storage/sdcard0/TitaniumBackup
I have a SD card too, but the /sdcard0 partition is smaller (repartitioned).

You will only have /storage/emulated if the /sdcard is not a physical partition (shared with /data).
You can try creating a new directory in /sdcard

I have this rom installed on my TrueSmart and have been unable to get a full day out of the battery. On 4.2.2, I was able to go a day and a half. What am I doing wrong?

If you haven't restored your NVRAM (radio calibration settings), the WiFi/cell/BT will be churning away at high power. I was getting half a day until I restored it.

I too was getting 1.5 days on 4.2.2, but now on 4.4.2 I'm getting 72 hours with light use.
