US backer here with a 512/4GB model

[gossipninja]

So I got my watch today, and it has a NA baseband and makes calls over Tmobile, but only have 512 ram and 4gb storage.

Omate said ALL North American backers would get 1gb / 8gb (I actually paid for a 1gb/4gb) so it is odd, since I didn't even think they MADE any 512/4gb NA models.

Anyone else get a 512/4 model in North America?

There have been a couple reports of this. Not sure you Omate feels about this but flashing the U.S. firmware may fix this. If it doesn't then somebody owes you a replacement.

If you plan to flash the stock NA 1900 firmware then use one of the guides here for flashing back to stock.

yeah Daniel and I have been talking in KS comments, yeah it must be a euro with US firmware.

It can only get EDGE.

Waited so long too.

Well, I received what looks like a 1gb/4gb model but the box has a sticker with 1gb/8gb on it and I did not receive my extra charging cable (at least is shows just over 1gb memory and 4.??gb storage. I can't tell yet if I have the correct radio inside. I am about to try my iPhone sim.

Well, the newer iPhone sim cards are smaller than the TS so I couldn't try it. Is there any way to tell if I have the right version before I go and void the warrant to install a larger memory card? I don't want to go and do anything if I have to send it back.

@jamesarm97

Settings/System/About/Baseband

1900 Baseband = MOLY.WR8.W1315.MD.WG.MP.V4.P1

If it is missing the "P1" then that's the 2100 baseband. HOWEVER there has already been one report of a 512/4 with the 1900 baseband out of the box.

Are you sure it's a 1/4?

 

[jamesarm97]

Ok. I have the correct version (with P1). I must have actual received the version I backed (1gb/4gb) even though they mentioned US getting the 8gb version. I am showing 1.27gb internal space and 4.91 Phone storage. Am I reading that right?

I think the Omate software takes about 3.09GB that's why phone storage is about half of 8GB

8GB it the total space. This is used for the OS, kernel, bootloader apps and so on. This is no different than any other Android phone.
