Hi Guys!

Here you will find my CyanogenMod 12.1 (Android 5.1.1) Rom for the Hexxa Atenea (Mediatek MT6572 SoC), and clones.
Please be sure to read (and re-read) carefully, to avoid unnecessary questions.
This is an Unofficial Source Build, so it will NOT be supported by the CyanogenMod Team

THIS IS ONLY FOR EXPERIENCED USERS THAT KNOW HOW TO FLASH A MEDIATEK DEVICE USING FLASH TOOLS. I WILL NOT ANSWER ANY QUESTION REGARDING HOW TO FLASH, HOW TO INSTALL DRIVERS, OR ANYTHING NOT RELATED WITH INTERNAL ROM USAGE!!! I prefer spend my few spare time fixing things that answering things that are already answered in XDA or Google.

This rom is based in Hexxa Atenea official ROM, but with some modifications:
Data size is now 2.4Gb and sdcard is emulated inside data partition. Now you have +2Gb to install apps. But if you do wipe, the "sdcard" is deleted too, so be careful of what do you store there.
The Launcher is the ClockSkin (thanks @riktop) app modified with an app list, so it's a fully working skin manager with an app launcher.

It also work without any issues on the clones (mt6572):
- No1 D5
- Other clones

CyanogenMod 12.1 Status:

Working:
- RIL: Telephony (Calls / etc) (2G and 3G)
- ART
- Sensors
- Sound
- Bluetooth
- Wifi
- Microphone (For Calls and in some apps)
- Data connection
- CyanogenMod related features (Theme Manager, etc ... )
- GPS and aGPS

Not Working / Needs Improvements :
- Heart Rate sensor
- Maybe others

Flash Instructions:
Backup, Backup, Backup ... Use MtkDroidTools for backup (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2730031)
Flash the image with Flashtools (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2730031)
To enter flashtool mode, shutdown the device before put it in the base. Search Internet for more info.
To flash select Firmware Upgrade or your data partition will not change. If you finish and data has +- 630Mb, reflash using Firmware Upgrade.

Recovery instructions:
Use your stock flastool image to restore the smartwatch.

Very promising ROM with clockskin, pedometer. Still needs some customization for round screens but the ROM is in dev so it will come soon.
Can be tested without issue on your D5.

Hello and congratulations on your hard work! Will this rom work on my finow X3?
Not X3+ but regular dual core X3 - yes.
@corvus - great work mate !!
Thanks for the rom.
WARNING - to all. As corvus said - BACKUP !! Especially your NVRAM / IMEI with Droid Tools. Uisng the Upgrade option in SP Flashtool has a habit of taking out your IMEI number.
We should try to make it applicable to the plus series of watches as well - now that so many are buying them.
I will see what we can do over on the http://roundandroidwatches.proboards.com/ to help with that.
Also the larger screen X5 and Q3 (mtk 6572) series would be great with this. I think that the build.prop just has inverted screen set in ro.softwarerotation=180 - and probably in the boot image as well.

I'm open to help with any development, for other devices with the same chipset (6572) you can try to do a porting of this rom (search for mediatek porting) but probably, sensors (and some other hardware) will not work). You can also take the device and vendor from github and use it as base to build your own image :)

With other chipsets, if it has 5.1 it could be easier than what I did (4.4 to 5.1) so there is a big possibility.

But as you know, I only have the Atenea :( but I can offer support to anyone that want to try :D

I have problem with Backup
when I click on "ROOT" button in MTK Droid Tools i see this
ATTENTION! Requests for confirmation on the device screen are possible!
--- ERROR :system it was not remounted on ReadWrite!
--- ERROR : file adbd not install !
TWRP backup is "safe" as MTK backup?

thanks for the rom! is incredible!!

I've set, I have a question.

How I can press enter, to enter the wifi password?
I enter the password with the keyboard and then press back (two times power button) and then you have access to the wifi dialog to press Save. This workaround can be done in almost all dialogs.

Also, you have google play and can test another keyboards. I will try to add some other, but I need to ask for permissions to the developers and this will need some time.
