I just recently got my first smart watch which is newly released in August by a Shenzhen company. Then started digging around in the web to learn and search SW for this watch as it is shipped with almost nothing but the HW. Fortunately I get here and learned a lot, also discovered that my watch has almost same HW as Omate and other clones in the market, the only difference is Andoid 4.4.2 system, bluetooth 4.0 LE and IP67 waterproof they advertized. Once people from that company also said Omate is their ODM product and now this is their 2nd generation with its own brand. I may not believe it 100% but given so many Omate clones in the market, it is no surprise at least they have relations.
Their customer service is even poorer than Omate, as they are busy attending shows etc and give vague promise of ongoing SW development, I can't wait but to seek help from forums.
So my help needed is: if there is any ROOT method available for this, is existing Omate root method working?
Till now I didn't really enjoyed any 4.4.2 system advantage over 4.2. Maybe I just don't know enough or maybe it is just a fake information in system settings?
Waterproof wise it does equipped with weird star type screw so that no one can open the back without special tool. that may be an indication of its IP67 capability? Maybe, but I do see report of water damage report and it could be water came in from the sim card slot because of not tightened screw or the poor quality water seal rubber.
Another minor improvement may be he charging cable, it is a magnetic head stick to the back of the watch, not as stable as Omate's little case but more convenient.
For anybody interested: please search unova on aliexpress.com sorry I am too new and can't publish the link
looks really like the truesmart?
please make a backup like described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2758733
@kuronosan: can you have a look at this?
edit: here is the link http://www.amazon.com/Generic-Ironman-Android-Waterproof-Bluetooth/dp/B00MTK5OLY
Yes, yes I can. What's the kernel date? Try using towelroot first. Otherwise, I'll need you to make a backup using droid tool. The sooner the better.
PM me when you get a chance.

just saw this myself and came here to find it already posted
I also thought it seemed a lot like the truesmart and wondered if it could be tapped for its ROM. Beat to the punch. Good to see some activity here at least.
...please make a backup and share it .THANKS !
lol. his first post and everybody is waiting for him (including me )

Update:
Kernel version: 3.4.67
Baseband version: MOLY.WR8.W1315.MD.WG.MP.V43.2014/08/12 09:45
the backup ROM link and tool download link are invalid or not accessible for me. I tried to backup the ROM by following the link on chinaphonearena.com/forum/Thread-MTK6592-MTK6582-MTK6589-MTK6577-MTK6575-MTK6572-ADB-PDAnet-VCOM-Drivers but met problem.
I downloaded PDAnet_4150.exe to install ADB driver on my win7 64, it prompts: an existing andoid USB driver exists, and I selected yes to reinstall it, then choose other type device, turn on the USB debug mode, then connect the watch, the installer shows: installing USB driver success, setting up network driver success, but popped up the box saying installer fail to open device, when I click ok, uninstalling PDAnet starts. i read another post that actually when ADB driver is installed, PDAnet installation is not needed. so I opened mtkdroidtools_253, the connection is in blue rather than in green. phone information can be displayed successfully, but it can't be ROOTed, so not able to backup the ROM. The above backup ROM tutorial link in chinaphonearena also said I need a ROOTed phone to backup, so I am stuck.
Run towelroot. Send me your e-mail address.

GPS is pretty good, better than my mobile phone.
How to test BTLE?
Almost managed to dump the ROM, but failed in the last step and need to debug again. The hardest part is how I can open the back to disconnect the battery, the watch seems to be locked now. But the strange screw.........
Picture of the screw?
Okay guys, thanks to his awesome patience I have a full backup of the KitKat image.
It's not something I'd want people to try and flash. Right now let me test it and go through the files.
And no, it's not booting.
...will you working on it for Omate and the others like Simvalley and callisto? Or share ?

@kuronosan
have you seen this:
https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/mediatek/
Daniel says it's totally possible
Yes, I'll be trying to do what I can to make a bootable kernel/bootloader.
So if we can make this kernel boot and take a official KK image (Like the one in the General topic from the exact same PCB)
then KK is possible? Right?
drooling at KK, improved battery and lower ram usage....

Ok, there are three ways to get a backup
try to take a look here for the first two : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2730031
the third: install the TWRP recovery by Sp Flash Tool then backup From recovery .
After installing the recovery you can root installing Chainfire superSU.zip http://download.chainfire.eu/696/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip

it would be really good to get the proper specs for the watch - the advert list some things that seem to contradict each other.
Can you let us have the info from the watch itself?
I would also be nervous about putting a custom ROM on it - you would lose the sensors; you already have KK on it, so why bother?
However, if you can get a dump as rik81 says, it might help port it onto the TS and allow our sensors to work

Ok, Ive also got one of these now.
The only way I could root it was with KingoRoot, be aware - it takes ages, but eventually works.
This unit is more like the TS than the Ironman, so there may be a good chance of backporting to the TS, with working sensors afterall.
I'll see if I can get a full backup for +kuronosan and others to have a look at.

After installing official Rom is there English language? And are you able to select the original theme?
Wanting to keep this phone as it is very nice,, but there are a lot of bugs with the custom Rom that they installed to get google services.
So if flashing the original Rom sorts these bugs out, and English language is still selectable, then i will keep it.
I do have the choice of sending it back and exchanging it for the xaiomi mi max, just have to pay a little extra,but i would rather keep it if i can select English language and the original theme.
Any response asap would be grateful.

Hi,
If you buy from banggood you will no need to re-flash rom. You can root it easily after flashing customized TWRP via SPFlash Tool. Screen is one of the best you can find. It has a dedicated HQ hifi chip inside. It is a big plus if you listen to music a lot. Battery can hold up to 36 hours in moderate usage.
Btw, probably due to Lollipop version based, FM radio is not working on mine.
Looks like someone has finally done it CM13 6.0.1 mm with Gapps for this device check Youtube, can't post link atm. have asked for a translation, should be up soon...=]
Wow, nice! Will this rom work on the pptv king 7s, too? I think its the same device with another display (glasses-free 3d).

I wouldn't have thought so, as the 7s has a 3d software, I have spoken to the person that ported this cm13 From another phone to this device and he says it is just a test version..
However, it is fully working and quite well really, with just a few bugs like torch and obviously no working NFC, .
I did give him the link to this thread, i really hope a dev will be able to take this project on, and maybe make an updated fully working cm 14 Rom for this excellent device. I would donate my device for that reason, but as I am actually using it, and as it's my only device, I unfortunately can't.

Will that include a wider choice of languages than before? Not only English and Chinese, I mean?
Sorry,. Do you mean languages in the ROM itself?
If you do, then I presume it has all the languages that cm13 has. It has a lot. What I was referring to was the video from YouTube would be translated to English soon. It now has subtitles so you can follow the tut.
But, I have installed king root and rooted that way, then installed flashify to install TWRP recovery, then in TWRP, I made a backup!, Flashed SU, then flashed the cm13 Rom.
Wiped dalvic and cache and rebooted recovery, wiped dalvic and cache once more then rebooted system, Done much easier...[emoji11]

Thank you very much for these helpful notes. Since my first post I have installed cm13, switched the launcher from Chinese to my native language, and installed a load of apps I used to have on my trusty old Samsung Note II. The only thing I still haven't done is actually putting a sim card in and checking the mobile's telephone functionality including the now hopefully working ringtones.
BTW, is it just me, or do the photographs taken with the front camera have a very strong blue or green tint? I haven't noticed that effect with the original camera app, so could this have to do with cm13's app?

I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or just being a noob. Ive been trying to make some changes for a bit now, but none of my changes are being kept.
I have downloaded the recovery ROM from Ulefone, mounted the system.img and vendor.img files and made a few changes, like removing some apps that don't work or I don't need. I tried modifying the apns-conf.xml as Android 8.1 has locked the APN settings (everything is greyed out and no + options). I have unpacked the boot.img and recovery.img and changed a value allowing root through ADB. Repacked everything and flashed using the supplied software and when the phone boots back up... Absolutely none of my changes are recognized. The Apps that I deleted are still there, the APNS-CONF.XML is unchanged, I am not able to root into ADB as it says its not available.
The first time it happened, I thought maybe I flashed the device using the wrong folder.
I don't know, Maybe I'm missing something totally obvious to someone more experienced. I only require root, as the APN settings are wrong and I am unable to edit them the conventional way. In order to send MMS messages, I have to select the 3G profile APN and switch force a connection to 3G because the MMS was never configured on the 4G APN Profile.
any update?
Root Armor 3
Hi there
Could you please tell me how you rooted Armor 3 ? I have that phone and struggling to root it because TWRP puts a password when I boot into recovery and not able to see any of the files stored on the internal memory.
Do NOT update to 20190314 - touch screen stops responding randomly.
If you did - write to Ulefone support and give them both IMEI numbers - they will enable newer OTA version for you with touchscreen issue fixed.

The update actually says it fixes that. Is it bugged? I'm holding off for now.

Hello,
I have the Armor 6 phone and would like to enable the hotspot function, my carrier is Sprint. In the past, I have had all Samsung devices and have rooted them using the information provided on this form, however, I am unable to find any root for the Armor 6. I have not yet switched from my Note 8 to the Armor 6 because I have been unable to confirm that the hotspot feature will work.
Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

20190314 fixed noise reduction problem where sound was cut off almost completely (they simply removed this useless feature) but introduced bugged touchscreen that freeze randomly.
20190329 fixes touchscreen issue. I can confirm that it works - in a week not a single touchscreen freeze.

HotSpot works perfectly without root. Fast and stable on this phone.

I can also confirm hotspot works without root just fine. I had an issue where my update service was being blocked by my ISP it seemed and I had to use other Internet in order to see the new update or get it but I've had no issues on the 329 one.

In meantime there is release on Ulefone site STOCK ROM 6E which has Mediatek Helio P70 with Android Pie 4 gb ram/64gb ..Maybe somebody can help to port this stock rom to the Armor 6 with Mediatek Helio P60 and Android Oreo 8.1 6gb ram/128gb, because Ulefone have no intention to upgrade Armor 6 with Android Pie.
Any advice will be appreciated...

This XDA link, tut made by me. Plus, I plan on making another with more details. Seems like this phone doesn't have their own section. So I'll make a post with all the info for this phone that I can find.
https://www.xda-developers.com/oppo-find-x2-find-x2-pro-android-11-beta/
I wonder if this means it will be an AOSP version? Maybe something developers can build on.
Yep....Just read this on GSMArena. Awesome news, usually it's our brothers over at OnePlus that get it first, it's cool to see this.
Wow its cool. Wait for china version.
Don't get close to it for the moment... apparently it messes a lot of things on the OP8P .. so i wouldn't install a beta1 on a phone they already have battery, and camera issues.
https://twitter.com/colorosglobal/status/1274971671397634049
seems to be here...
I'm tempted to install it just to see the improvements, as i know i can safely rollback to ColorOS 7 if it's daily unusable
I downloaded and flashed. Somehow it shows that it's still android 10. I'm trying to find out what's wrong.
Going to try flash again n see.
This update wiped your internal memory like Oppo said it would ?
I'm gonna flash it this afternoon and will post a feedback about what's working or not as soon as i can.
Just installed. Can confirm wipe

How did you go, same deal with me
Just rolled back to android Q, i have some apps which are not yet compatible with Android 11. Plus, there's a bug with the round left and right corner, the keybord and the touch (back, home and apps) are superposing each others which is really annoying when you try to write something on the keyboard...
I will try later when it will be fixed. Otherwise the system seemed really smooth and nice visually.
Just realised that my sim card is not detected by the phone since i rollback to the CPH2025PU version... My Find X2 Pro is orginally EU Version... anyone kows how to fix that ?

Couldn't figure it out yet. Probably the rom itself is a problem?

You obviously f***ed up your device. No simcard and I guess there is no IMEI number?
Sent from my OPPO CPH2025 using XDA Labs
Well on Android 11, my SimCard is detected, but when i rollback on android Q, it's not detected, i did the swith two times and same thing. So for me it can be fixed.
And i guess we're going to be a lot to ****ed up our devices then... Starting with some no-chinses developers who will flash android 11 beta 11 and rollback and will get the same issue....

Did you select the right rollback version? i have seen somewhere that there are 2 rollback versions one for chines and one for global?
Does anyone know if or when Oppo will release beta 2?
