Remotely modify the settings of an android application - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have got a small local network:
• A router not connected to the Internet
• 20 tablets that connect to it
• a computer under linux with LAMP
• a computer under windows with WAMP
When I make an adjustment on an application, I have to repeat the operation on the 20 tablets one after the other. Is there a way to automate this task? What tool could I use to transfer the settings I make to the applications on a tablet over the local network? (they all have the same apps and they are all rooted)
For example :
• Adding a start page in FIREFOX or unblocking Pop-ups in this same application
• changing preferences in VLC
• Addition of a folder to be consulted in O’CLOUD (Android application which allows synchronization with the server)
• Applications to Greenify with GREENIFY
• Changing preferences in LIBRERA
• A new module in XPOSED
• A new task in TASKER
• etc.
I have a little idea using the TITANIUM data backup tool, but you still have to go through all the tablets to restore the data. Does anyone know the best way to apply tweaks to apps on a batch of tablets?
Thank you in advance for any ideas you can share with me.

Only as an idea:
You declare one tablet - which must have an external SD-card slot what can take cards >= 256GB - as the master
Code:
adb shell "setprop persist.is_master_tablet 1"
You clone this master-tablet's desired content ( create a .TAR archive ) onto this external SD-card by means of ADB
You pull created .TAR-file from master-tablet's external SD-card to Windows OS based server by means of ADB
You push this .TAR-file to all other 19 tablets by means of ADB
You extract the .TAR on all the 19 tablets by means of ADB
The steps ( except 1st one ) can be done in one-go with a Windows command ( CMD ) script ( batch-file ).

[Software]Useful PC apps for Android Devs and Owners

First of all, I am not developer of these softwares. I found them over xda and web and thought to share with all of you, in all good intentions.
ADB Mask Controller
Dev- Mask-1
App info-
• push, pull, install apps and transfer between System <=> User apps and between SD <=> Device
• remove & uninstall apps, clean data from deleted apps and delete orphan files
• change min & max CPU frequency (from available steps)
• view and edit: gps.conf, Hosts, build.prop, hw_config and media_profiles.xml
• view and kill running processes
• zipalign
• keyboard functionality
• search files / folders
• push and pull Bootanimation, framework-res and Framework jar files
• clean cache & temp folders and application data cache
• Enable Market to show paid apps
• Create phone log (logcat, dmesg)
• View device info
• mount r/w and mount r/o (for system) function
• and others.
It's better to backup your data before Zipaligning, because some launchers don't work correctly when they are zipaligned, causing a reboot loop.
To launch the tool
*unzip the package
*run "ADB Mask Controller.exe"
*connect your phone (enable USB debugging)
*If this is the first time you use this tool click on "Check root access and busybox". If you are sure that your phone is rooted and the tool says otherwise, make sure that your phone allows the program to have SuperUser access.
*Busybox is required in order to use this tool. If you get the result "NO" next to the Busybox Version then you must push/install it on your phone.
Hints for Wireless connection:
- To connect your phone by wireless you must install and turn on adbWireless, adb over Wifi or another similar app
- Wireless connection is slower than USB connection. It is not recommended to do advanced tasks using wireless since the connection can be interrupted more easily than USB connections.
- The display must be turned on while connected with wifi (or a wakelock must be enabled through an app e.g. Waketimer) in order to prevent the cpu from going to sleep mode while it's working with wireless adb.

[APP/SKN][Beta][CE 5.0/6.0] ceFFM - A Fingerfriendly Menu (Shell) for Sat Nav's

Today, I present to you the ceFFM application, as a thank you to this forum that has always given me so much. It is a little personal project I am working on when I am not doing anything else. It mainly was suggested by a friend of mine who is not convinced of 'MioPocket' or comparable other shells for Windows® (Embedded) CE based Sat Nav units, this because of their not Windows® Embedded CE 6.0 fair implementation and their immense RAM hunger and/or missing finger-friendliness, as he said.

}
Abstract:
(i) What is ceFFM?
ceFFM is a free (as in "free speech" and also as in "free beer") absolute finger-friendly shell/menu ( at least I think so ) for Windows® CE (.NET) 5.0 (CE5) and/or Windows® Embedded CE (.NET) 6.0 (CE6) based Sat Nav touchscreen devices with an ARM™ processor equipped board . Hence I titled the project ceFFM. Its skin is based on opensource-ware 'CEMenu'. Its use is governed by GPL License. ceFFM is legal to use, as it consists 100% of freely-distributable content. It is NOT a replacement for any OEM navigation software. It is just a frontend from which you may among other things launch the navigation software that came with your device or that you purchase separately.
(ii) What are ceFFM's main features?
Basically ceFFM acts as an "unlock" for Sat Nav devices (AKA PNAs/AIOs) running either CE5 or CE6. Such devices almost always boot into the manufacturer's software with no way to exit it, meaning that you cannot run any other software; i.e. the device is "locked." Unlocking your device allows you to use it for far more than the manufacturer intended (ex. for music, movies, appointments, other navigation apps, etc.) and more like a PDA. Additionally ceFFM does something your Sat Nav already probably does on its own (launch applications), except that it adds the ability for you to customize your Sat Nav in more ways than you normally can, so that you can launch applications quicker and more easily. For example, ceFFM creates for you up to nine different 'desktops', giving you quick access to more applications than before.
(iii) What types of programs does ceFFM come with?
ceFFM comes with just nearly three dozens of applications recognized by me as usefull. See list "Featured Applications" below. Important: ceFFM does not come with iGo, GarminXT, TomTom, Destinator, Sygic, AutoSputnik, NDrive, Mireo, PolNav or any other commercial navigation software. Icons may be included for them, but not the programs, themselves (since they are not free). Note that ceFFM does NOT replace Microsoft's file-viewers and third-party's flash-player if these are inbuilt by OEM, but uses them.
(iiii) What devices does ceFFM run on?
Technically, ceFFM should run on any CE5 and/or CE6 based touchscreen device with an ARM™ processor equipped board, where unit's touchscreen has landscape orientation. ceFFM is NOT intended to be run on mobile devices based on Windows Mobile 5.0 and/or Windows Mobile 6.x, because those Windows Mobile based units' touchscreen has portrait orientation. ceFFM is not hard-coded to any particular brand or configuration, quite reverse. Note that every CE5 and/or CE6 based device is slightly different, though, and due to the great many brands and configurations that are out there, the ease of installation and the number of applications and features that actually work will vary.
(iiiii) What is ceFFM's memory footprint?
ceFFM respects Windows® (Embedded) CE is made for devices that have minimal memory. Hence it is designed to be resource-friendly. Its CPU and memory usage are low (ex. compared with MioPocket 4.0 Rel. 68 only scarcely an eighth).
(iiiiii) Does ceFFM install to SD/MMC/CF-card or to internal flash disk (Card-free)?
Both. You have the option of either. But recommended of course is flash disk installation (a certain gain in speed one may notice). Note: Current SD/MMC/CF-cards have more performance than internal memory anyway, the tradeoff is that you must either have a single card which is NEVER removed, or take care before removing it, be sure programs installed there are not running if you have to swap it out.
(iiiiiii) Can ceFFM brick my device?
In principle, from the concept, NO. It really does not hurt anything, it is considered to be exceptionally safe. This due to the fact ceFFM simply overlays device's default shell/menu which you re-gain access to if you exit ceFFM. The changes to CE's registry made by ceFFM affect unit's registry keys as following
[HKCU\SOFTWARE\ceFFM]
Installed
LaunchCount
ResidentFolderPath
URL
InstallFolderPath
Version
[HKLM\init]
Launch253
Depend253
Launch255
Depend255
[HKLM\Loader]
SystemPath
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
(iiiiii) Does ceFFM have multi-lingual support?
NO. It comes only in English.
(iiiiiiii) Which is the programming language ceFFM is based on?
ceFFM is based on 'MortScript 4.3.b.15' , a macro type program (i.e. "hacker tool without a nifty interface").
Screen Shots:
License Agreement:
ceFFM is free software which everyone can use free of charge, redistribute and change under the terms of the General Public License version 2.0 (GPL v2.0).
System Requirements:
a) A working CE5 and/or CE6 based Sat Nav touchscreen device with an ARM™ processor equipped board (compellingly display mode with either 480x272px or 800x480px screen-resolution, this because of ceFFM is designed to work solely in landscape mode with regards of fact that all PNA's/AIO's touchscreen has landscape orientation) with (optional) SD/MMC/CF-card slot and/or at least the possibility to establish an 'ActiveSync' connection with desktop PC / laptop to copy ceFFM to Sat Nav's internal storage device.
b) Library ole32.dll in \Windows (should be there by default)
Safety Notices:
a) Not all OEMs do provide any in-house method of unlocking their device. Any unlocking process for such a device can only come from software hacking sources as ceFFM. If you are afraid of damaging your device or voiding any warranties, do not unlock this device using ceFFM.
b) If your Sat Nav has a 'Password Protected Lock', i.e. a bootup password is set, remove this lock before installing ceFFM. The reason for this is that the password entry box appears off screen and you will have no way to enter the password any more if device became unlocked.
c) In case you decide to install ceFFM on SD/MMC/CF-card do NOT plug in your USB cable until ceFFM has installed and reset the device (otherwise, your SD/MMC/CF-card will dismount and ceFFM will not be able to access it during install).
d) These are the steps you in any case always first of all should do
1. Make sure you calibrate Sat Nav's screen.
2. In case you decide to install ceFFM on SD/MMC/CF-card that came with the Sat Nav, make a backup of the SD/MMC/CF-card before you use it.
IMHO it also is strongly recommended you have (before installing ceFFM) at least these four freeware utilities present at your destop PC / laptop, which allow you to manage your Sat Nav via a working 'ActiveSync' connection
a) CeRegEditor - registry editor.
b) CeRunApp - tool to remotely start an application (incl. copying it) on your Sat Nav from your desktop.
c) CeNotepad - a remote Windows CE text editor (a "Notepad" that can open text files on a connected device directly on the desktop).
d) CeRhost - the counterpart to CE's cerdisp
These utilities for your convenience I have packed into archive ceFFM-Win32-Tools. Link is provided below.
Installation:
Unpacked ceFFM needs ~200 MB free disk space.
1. Switch Sat Nav's USB-mode to 'Serial_Class' (AKA 'ActiveSync' mode)
2. Download and unpack the zip-archive ceFFM-X.X.X to your desktop PC/laptop (Do not extract it directly to your SD/MMC/CF-card, as that often produces errors or corrupted files). Hint: Use a download manager to be sure the download goes errorfree.
3. In unpacked folder ceFFM-X.X.X edit configuration file 'ceFFM.ini' according to your needs
4. Copy unpacked folder ceFFM-X.X.X somewhere to your Sat Nav's internal and/or external flashdrive - highest reommended of course there into the root ("<storage device>"). Owners of a Magellan may copy unpacked folder ceFFM-X.X.X to "\HDD\APP", owners of a Pioneer Avic may copy unpacked folder ceFFM-X.X.X to "\My Flash\APL2", owners of a YF International (Yuan Feng) may copy unpacked folder ceFFM-X.X.X to "\ResidentFlash2\YFAP30", etc.pp, there are no restrictions. Be warned: Copying unpacked ceFFM via 'ActiveSync' to Sat Nav's internal flash drive takes approx. 0.75 hours.
5. Ensure your device's battery is charged as 100% and/or the Sat Nav has a working external power supply. Note that ceFFM refuses its installation in case no external power supply is given if battery is charged less than 30% - reason: on some Sat Nav's you can watch the battery gauge go down 1% for every 10 seconds.
6. Finally on your Sat Nav run in folder "<storage device>\ceFFM-X.X.X" executable 'ceFFM.exe'. Hint: A lot of the current PNAs/AIOs have a real simple kludge for this. In the 'Settings' section there is a 'Choose navigation program path' option. You use this to point to 'ceFFM.exe' and run it. Also with many CE devices that I have come across, a script named 'shell.ini' does that. If 'shell.ini' is in root SD/MMC/CF-card, the script will be executed when you press navigation on the original screen menu. If 'shell.ini' is in Sat Nav's resident storage memory (ex. \ResidentFlash), and there is no SD/MMC/CF-card inserted, the script will be executed automatically on device power on. Note that the 'shell.ini' in root of SD/MMC/CF-card has priority over 'shell.ini' in resident flash memory. To start ceFFM contents of 'shell.ini' may look like \SDMMC\ceFFM-X.X.X\ceFFM.exe. Alternatively, if you can establish an 'ActiveSync' connection, you might use utility 'CeRunApp' from ceFFM's Win32-Tools mentioned above to remotely run 'ceFFM.exe' on SD/MMC/CF-card plugged in to Sat Nav device.
You should know that if OS's registry is of type file-based (as with most current CE6 devices) and if ceFFM runs for the first time and in ceFFM's configuration file 'ceFFM.ini' key 'BackupSystem' is set to 1, then a complete backup of Sat Nav's registry is made.
If ceFFM is successfully run for the first time, it registers itself in unit's registry as key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ceFFM; i.e. these entries are created:
[HKCU\SOFTWARE\ceFFM]
InstallFolderPath
LaunchCount
ResidentFolderPath
URL
Version
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Also, if in ceFFM's configuration file 'ceFFM.ini' key 'AutoStartCeFFMAtBootTime' is set to 1, ceFFM attempts to add itself to device's registry in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init key as the last startup application possible, thus it is started automatically when device boots, in registry these four entries additionally are created:
[HKLM\init]
Launch253
Depend253
Launch255
Depend255
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
And, if ceFFM is installed on SD/MMC/CF-card, and if its 'AutoStartCeFFMAtBootTime' option is chosen, additionally in device's internal flashdrive a new folder ceFFM-X.X.X with size of max. 1.5 MB - depends on CE's version, will be created, which hosts a few files.
Depending on the amount of options enabled, installation may take 10 minutes.
During ceFFM's first installation the content of some its folders/files gets heavily changed, i.e. directories get removed, files' content get changed, .ZIP-files get extracted and then removed, etc.pp. So you only can use the pre-first-time-installation copy of ceFFM for another installation.
Notes:
a) If your device does not have an SD/MMC/CF-card slot, you probably need 'Microsoft Windows Mobile Device Center Driver' (AKA 'ActiveSync'). It is available for Windows Vista / 7 both 32-bit and 64-bit. You get this driver here:
64-bit: drvupdate-amd64.exe
32-bit: drvupdate-x86.exe
b) The best way to format your SD/MMC memory card is using SD formatter 3.1. At time of this writing this is the latest version of SD formatter which specifically designed to format SD/SDHC/SDXC memory cards. This is absolutely better than using your default operating system format utilities.
c) If installed to SD/MMC/CF-card, do not remove the SD/MMC/CF-card when ceFFM is open, or its folders/files may be damaged or the system may crash.
Updating/upgrading:
See above under Installation. Note that ceFFM tries to detect an earlier-version installation and if detected, deletes all non conformant folders/files created by the earlier version before installing the update/upgrade ceFFM-X.X.X takes place.
Customizing:
ceFFM is steered by its configuration file 'ceFFM.ini'. ceFFM reads this file each time it runs, hence you can change at any time ceFFM's run-options. If an option got changed, ceFFM re-configures itself (and system) on-the-fly.
Uninstallation:
In ceFFM's configuration file 'ceFFM.ini' simply set Uninstall to 1 and re-run ceFFM. This will completely remove the existing installation.
Note that versions prior to 0.3.0 have no explicit uninstall mechanism/routine. You simply delete folder ceFMM-X.X.X on Sat Nav's drive it was installed on. In case of a hive-based registry you additionally manually by means of a registry editor remove entries
[HKLM\init]

if these are present, otherwise you simply hard-reset the Sat Nav unit. Important note concerning Sat Nav units with file-based registries: Changes made to Sat Nav's registry by a bundled application, means if such one was started from within ceFFM's skin, will NOT be undone, because this would be an impossible venture.
Depending on the amount of options enabled, uninstallation may take 5 minutes.

None of these applications requires Microsoft .NET CF and/or OpenNETCF SDF, they all are written and compiled as native, not as managed code! Furthermore, none of the files is compressed (AKA 'UPXed'). Note that this assembly only is a personal proposal (these applications are the ones I like most). You might change it at any time. An additional set of applications that run well under both CE5 and CE6 I have compiled as ceFFM-Extensions, link is provided below.
Modifying Skin:
ceFFM does not know of any sophisticated programmatical skin changer/manager, means you must manually edit the appropriate skin-files by yourself. This because of ceFFM is intended to be most simplistic as possible. Sorry for this. But it should be an easy, at least I think so. All skin related stuff is stored in XML based data format. The files concerned are: all in folder '<install drive>\ceFFM-X.X.X' with extension '.cemenu' (except file 'dummy.cemenu' which you never should touch) and all shortcuts in '<install drive>\ceFFM-X.X.X\programs' with extension '.lnk'. Please read file 'CeMenu-ReadMe' for more information.

Virus Information:
You get a warning from your antivirus software during downloading and unpacking ceFFM?
1. Ensure you have the original files
The ceFFM files do not contain any virus or other "add-on" when they are build. The Mediafire servers used for the distribution are known to be reliable, they are used without problem by thousands of software. Against you must be careful if you have downloaded ceFFM on another site not authorized by me. To be sure that ceFFM zip-file has not been modified by a third party you can check the md5sum with the md5sum notice shown above besides the download link.
If you need a MD5 Checksum calculator, I recommend small freeware MD5 Checksum Calculator 0.1.7.138.
2. False detection
The detection of a virus in a file is not an exact science. It may happen that the antivirus software find a resemblance to a known virus and gives an alert.
Feedback:
ceFFM is still a work in progress. Feel free to report bugs, make improvement suggestions, etc.pp. It would also help that when you write about problems, to tell me what device are you using and what CE version it is running. Be precise! Describe the problem in as much detail as possible. I will not be bothered to answer posts such as "it don't work for me, help!".

Appendix:
Prudent ones might install and use WinCE 5.0/6.0 Device Emulator on their desktop PC / laptop to try out ceFFM before installing ceFFM to their Sat Nav.
I know, posting on my own post... but I just edited the original post and wanted to make sure it got brought forward...
Change Log ceFFM 0.1.1 (800x480px):
1) squeezed images used, hence shorter load time, less RAM-usage
2) added a launcher/installer routine
3) added a "RestoreToFactoryDefaults" icon/routine (Warning: DO NOT RUN THIS, IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT MAY HAPPEN!)
4) added some (useful ?) applications
Change Log ceFFM 0.2.0:
Now both 480x272 and 800x480 ready.
Change Log ceFFM 0.2.1:
Two bugs fixed. Thanks to joshli.
Download newest version: See post#1
Good to see a descent menu for WinCE6 Sat Nav devices, since they starting to be big part of the GPS devices that sold nowadays.
jwoegerbauer said:
This due to the fact ceFFM simply overlays device's default shell/menu which you re-gain access to if you exit ceFFM.

Is this means that the Registry Init keys first launch the original nav program, and only then ceFFM? Isn't that a little memory consuming?
A little suggestion:
Add the Installation and Uninstallation part to the readme file. They're kind of must-be over there.
TY for this shell!!

Should be no problem. Most CE6 AIOs present a start menu (i.e. shell), do not immediately start any application (ex. navigation program) per se. This initial menu usually has only a few KB, so this is certainly negligible.
Add the Installation and Uninstallation part to the readme file. They're kind of must-be over there.

Added to the TODO list! Thanks for the hint.
Positive or negative criticism please
There have been 95 downloads but only 2 responses here after it has been applied to devices. Could someone let me know if he/she likes it on his/her device or not, how to improve it or what? I am willing to spend further efforts into this project, publish in the near future a final version here ...
I just found out about this today, I will try it on jvc NT3HDT.
Is there any kind of precaution i should be aware of before running it.
Also do you have any script that can back up/dump NAV original software before any tweaking?
Thanks

ceFFM doesn't hurt any thing. Promised. ceFFM simply waits default start-up has finished, then it presents to you an extra shell which you like, or not. If you exit ceFFM you are returned to your JVC's default shell.
Also do you have any script that can back up/dump NAV original software before any tweaking?

Your unit's original software isn't affected at all. Hence there isn't the need to backup anything. But of course you can backup the JVC's registry by means of CeRegEditor or any other tool, if you can establish a so-called ActiveSync-connection between your JVC and desktop PC/Laptop.
No Luck
HeadUnit bypassed the sd card completely and booted into the oem nav software.
Let me know if you have something else i can throught at the HU.
ceFFM needs to be manually installed, no auto-installation feature given

If you can establish a so-called ActiveSync-connection between your JVC and desktop PC/Laptop ( of course USB-cable is necessary ), then you can start ceFFM.exe on the SD-card inserted manually, using herefore a Win32 freeware tool as for example "EveryWAN Personal Edition" or "My Mobiler", or any other tool you like.
I will research Activesync and see if my HU can establish that connection.
I might need to pick up a M-M usb cable from the store.
Thanks again jwoegerbauer for the reply. it was worth a try...
Hi jwoegerbauer, I have just downloaded and when I can I´ll try to install on my Chiness GPS with Windows Embedded 6.0, and I´ll post here the result. Thanks.
Great Program
I just downloaded and installed the program today on my chinese double din car unit, this is a really awesome program.
I have one small question.
Is there a way to change the path of the IGO icon to point to my navigation software?
Right now I have to exit ceFFM and then change the path in Wince to boot into IGO.
Thanks
Changing path to an external app
The path to an external application as this is the case with iGO too is defined in a related shortcut-file to be found in <installdrive>\ceFFM\programs. Please modify there the path.
For your convenience you might use Win32 freeware CeNotepad - ActiveSync connection required.
Adding new icons
I have tested it and it works ok. It is very friendly and have e very good aspect. Very good job. Thanks.
I have a question, is there any way to add new icons to an extrenal application?.

Of course.
1) Adding: You simply add to
a) folder <installdrive>\ceFFM\icons\extern an icon you created - a template is to be found in folder <installdrive>\ceFFM\icons (BlankSR.png)
b) folder <installdrive>\ceFFM\programs a shortcut-file to the external application, you might create with Win32 freeware nueShortcutMaker - ActiveSync connection recommended
c) the menu's page you want to extend (ex. Favorites => script-file <installdrive>\ceFFM\favorites.cmenu) an additional entry like this
Code:
<Button img="icons\extern\QuranSR.png" action="programs\PocketIslam.lnk" params="" />
2) Deleting: basically same logic as Adding an icon, but simply reverse.
I figured it out

Because ceFFM is installed on a SD card in my car unit, I was able to bring the card in the house and use my desktop to make the changes.
It took me a few trys but I figured it out.
I deleted your icon in the programs folder and created a new one with the correct path using nueShortcutMaker.
Everything works fine now
Thanks for your help.
Starting / Killing applications before ceFFM starts
A feature not evident at first glance. How to activate it?
ceFMM gets started via "<flashdrive>\ceFFMLaunch.exe" ( simply a renamed TULL.exe - by Dack ) which reads an .INI-file to find out what commands to perform. This .INI-file is the place you can stop and/or start applications prior ceFFM gets started. For example
1) to start the RAM-cleaner that comes with ceFFM, you would add to "<flashdrive>\ceFFMLaunch.ini" a line such as
Code:
W "\NandFlash\ceFFM\program files\ce-utils\RAM Sweeper\RAMSweeper.exe"
2) to stop AppXXX that runs by default on your Sat Nav, but you think it is senseless to have this application running (which besides is RAM and CPU wasting), you would add to "<flashdrive>\ceFFMLaunch.ini" a line such as
Code:
Z AppXXX.exe
Important: NEVER KILL SAT NAV's DEFAULT SHELL, this because if exiting ceFFM you land in the nirwana. IMO a good candidate for killing is "DW.exe" (Dr.Watson watchdog application) which is present at many CE 6.0 based units.
the most important app for our devices ;-)
subscribing to this thread....
Wow, I have been looking for something like this for last 2 weeks, hope it works with my new Innovatek72 gps that is on its way, can`t wait to get it all installed and running
will report back as soon as I get to play with it

[TOOL] Amazfit PACE Tuner (Windows & APK utilities)

I created these utilities to help people complete some tasks faster/easier without having to resort to ADB or other methods. The purpose of these programs is to assist the user fine tune their watch & add functionality.

FEATURES
PACE Watch APP
* Display enabled Keyboards on watch
* Switch between Minuum Keyboard & Stock Huami
* Test typing keyboard area
* Control WiFi & Bluetooth
PACE Tuner Windows utility
* Check for ADB devices
* Install Minuum Keyboard on watch
Since I am not the author of the Minuum Keyboard I will not be including it in the package (sorry). You will need to search online (plenty of places to download it from) and download the APK.
Download Minuum-Wear.apk and place it in the same directory as the PACE Windows utility. Make sure the naming of the file is as exactly mentioned earlier in bold.
Click on the "Install Minuum" button in the Windows utility and wait for the install to complete.
* Display PACE watch data (device name & total km's ran)
* Display Watch and paired phone Bluetooth Information
Tweaks
* # Root required # Allow 3rd party software to be installed directly on the watch (you would need a file manager already installed on the watch)
* Toggle between show battery % screen while charging or the watchface (you may have to wake the screen once after making changes to see them)
* # Experimental # Enable find iPhone feature from watch (works by default on Android, so only use for iPhone users)
* # Experimental # Enable Haptic feedback (app needs to support this for it to work)
* Super Brightness - Sets watch to maximum allowed brightness. Manual 'L5' allows for a value of '180' in the settings. By enabling this option your setting will be '255' (maximum allowable).
* You can force restart your watch by double clicking on the PACE watch picture (typically bottom-right)
* Kill all ADB connections (in case Windows get confused or something)
I currently own and test the utilities on a Windows 7 (x64) based machine only and a PACE International version on stock firmware v1.3.6d

Frequently asked questions
Q: I am trying to launch the utility on the watch but I am getting errors/exceptions.
A: You have to use the Windows PACE Tuner utility to install the APK since it elevates privileges required for the app to run properly. If you try to simply sideload it it will fail!
Q: I have some great ideas or need more modifications - can you please do them asap?
A: Unfortunately for you I am not a 'proper' developer. I do this as a hobby on my (limited) spare time, so I can't commit to time or my abilities to be able to do what you imagine. Your ideas are of course welcome - I will do my best, but I will do it at my time.

Hi Eric,
Sorry mate - all I am doing is enabling some hidden functions in the watch.
1. I don't have an iPhone to test it with.
2. I am using stock PACE 1.3.6d International version
The option may not be there at all for PACEfied for all I know.
Since I can't test it myself I have marked it EXPERIMENTAL. I am waiting to hear back from another guy who is using an iPhone with stock ROM. If it doesn't work on his version either that means that it doesn't currently work and I will remove it from future releases until Huami properly integrate it.
Amaxfit Pace Tuner English ver Win10 install
Many many thanks for this installed the Pace Tuner onto the English rom 1.3.6d version using win10.
When first tried utility adb would not connect, but copied adb.exe and a couple of dll's into the Tuner folder and then adb connected fine to watch device.
Couple of minor issues:
1. The option to install "Minuum-Wear.apk" was grayed out and I have exact same named apk in Tuner folder.
2. Ticked the tweak to give super brightness but noticed no change.
Checked the brightness using: adb shell settings get system screen_brightness and value was 180.
I can always fix this with: adb shell settings put system screen_brightness 255
Main reason for install was the ability to toggle the wifi on/off. I installed the Xbrowser but because wifi is normally always off the browser was unable to load any data. The Tuner now gives me the option to toggle wifi on and then when I load Xbrowser and can browse web as necessary
Hi,
will this work with the amazfit stratos (pace 2?)
thanks
answered my question, it works on the stratos
it is now dec,,,and a lot of update is there on watch...so...is it still worth it?

Requirements
Windows O.S.
Have the ADB drivers installed. Here is the link to download them. During installation, make sure to enable the "Add to System Path Environment" option. Here you have more information about ADB drivers. Since v10, if you don't have ADB drivers installed, they are automatically downloaded and installed as soon as you open Wear OS Tools. [new]
Connect the watch and the phone to the same Wi-Fi network.
Enable debugging over Wi-Fi on the watch. On the watch, go to Settings > system > About and tap "Build Number" several times until you see a message that says "you are now a developer". Then go to Settings > developer options and enable "ADB debugging" and "Debugging over Wi-Fi".
If you want to connect the watch to the phone via Bluetooth or Cable USB, follow the steps detailed on the tool.
Considerations
The tool is available in English (EN) and Spanish (ES).
Tested on TWP3 and TWP5, please give feedback on other watches.
To find out the IP address of the watch, just go to "Debugging over Wi-Fi" in Settings > developer options. Under that option, you will see the IP. You can also see it in Settings > Connectivity > Wi-Fi > "Your Wi-Fi network".
You can connect the watch by USB cable, by bluetooth or by Wi-Fi network.
Wear OS watches are a bit unstable to stay connected to the Wi-Fi network especially if it is connected by Bluetooth with the phone, to make sure it connects smoothly when using the tool enable the "Enable Wi-Fi automatically when charging" option in Settings > developer options, and plug the watch to the charger. Another trick is to momentarily deactivate Bluetooth in the watch, the Wi-Fi network will be activated in a few seconds.
Since v10 you can use the tool in multitasking mode, i.e. you can for example backup watch apps while you are applying custom configurations. [new]
When you have finished, turn off "ADB debugging" on the watch, otherwise it will drain your watch battery...
Where to download?
Wear OS Tool v10​
Method
Download and unzip in a folder the file from the "Where to download" section.
Make sure you meet all the points in the "requirements" section.
Locate the IP address of the watch as explained in the "considerations" section.
Run Wear OS Tools and enter the IP address.
If your watch is Wear OS 2 enter 5555 or nothing in the port number, and skip to step 7.
If your watch is Wear OS 3, enter the port number, which will be different from 5555
.
Select "Pair new device" or "Wireless debugging" (This step is only performed the first time) and enter the IP, port and pairing code, then re-enter the IP and port number as in the previous step.
A notification will probably appear on the watch asking "Allow debugging?", select "Always allow from this computer".
In the tool, choose a function to run and follow the instructions on the screen.

Clarification on the new pairing procedure in Pixel Watch.
In the update in March 2023 for Pixel Watch, Google has implemented the new adb pairing procedure that had already been for some time on Android 11 and higher phones. It should be remembered that Wear OS 3 is based on Android 11, that is, watches like Pixel Watch, Galaxy Watch 5 or Fossil Gen 6. For now, this procedure is only implemented on Pixel Watch, but probably in the coming months it will be implemented on the other Wear OS 3 watches.​​
The process is that you must first pair the watch with a device such as a PC or smartphone, entering a random pairing code and a random port number (only the first time you pair to the device) and then the connection is made through the IP address as it was done so far, but with the difference that the port number is random (it is not 5555 as before) and you will have to consult it on the watch every time you connect the watch in developer mode.
Wear OS 2 watches, and for now Wear OS 3 watches (except Pixel Watch) connect the watch as usual and with fixed port number, i.e. 5555.
What custom settings and optimizations are offered?
Apply Custom Settings on the watch from the PC (option 8) :​
Hide/Display developer options menu.
Enable/Disable GPS location.
Adjust screen timeout beyond limits.
Enable/Disable ambient display.
Enable/Disable theater mode.
Enable/Disable auto brightness.
Adjust brightness manually.
Apply optimizations (option 8): ​
Double the speed of animations and transitions.
Optimizations to improve performance and reduce battery consumption.
Enable/disable adaptive battery management.
Enable/disable the processing speed management system.
Enable/disable useless configuration items in Galaxy Wtach 4/5.
Manage Vibration (option 4):​
Enables/disables vibration when receiving calls.
Enable/disable vibration when receiving notifications.
Enable/disable vibration when touching the watch screen.
Enable/disable vibration for a specific application.
Delete cache memory (option 8).​
Optimize performance (option 8) .​
Reduce battery drain with the dexopt optimization method (option 8) .​
To-Do
Force pairing with Wear OS 3 watches
Improve optimization tool with more optimization tasks (any suggestions from this thread for Samsung Galaxy devices or this thread for Pixel devices?).
Porting code to Linux and Mac via Java or Python.
I share this tool for free, to code the tool as it is now having taken me quite some time, I just ask for some feedback for the one who download it and try it.
If you are going to use it, please comment what you think or what bugs you see or what new features you suggest. Any opinion is interesting.
Version Information
Status: Stable
Current Version: v10.0
Release Date: 13/02/2021
Last Update Date: 06/06/2023
Big thank you for that!
And also thanks for sharing the information about changing ringtones etc. I was really surprised, as i have seen that it isn't easily possible to change the notification sound on Wear Os...
It made me think i'm back in stone age
Thank you
will good to try it out
Hello, I update the tool because it had a bug in the option to change ringtones and sounds. It did not detect the sound correctly and you only saw it on reboot, now it detects it immediately.
WearOS Tools v3.1
For the effort, if you use it, feedback, please.

Works great on Windows 11 ARM inside Parallels on Mac, appreciate your work.
Hello, I update the tool. The main menu has been restructured, and a watch optimization tool has been added.
I take this opportunity to remind the function 2 of the tool about extract/restore applications from our watch. In the coming weeks there will be update for several watches with Qualcomm Snapdragon 4100 microprocessor as Ticwatch Pro 3, Fossil Gen 6... which will reset the watch to factory settings, and you will lose the apps you had previously installed, this tool allows you to extract the apps to your PC and restore them once updated to Wear OS 3.
It also serves to migrate your apps from your old watch if you buy the new watch, such as the Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 or Google Pixel Watch.
Wear OS Tool v4.0​

Go to the Windows start bar, type ah "cmd" (without the quotes), go to the folder where you have the tool with "CD" command, type "WearOS Tools v4.0_EN.exe".
If you have an error running it, now it will not disappear in a second.
Try also to copy the tool to the root directory of the Windows hard disk, usually C.

In order not to lengthen this post thread about your problem, you could be more detailed, do you recognize "Pasta" folder?, have you tried to run any exe file from cmd?, where have you installed Windows?, have you tried to copy the tool in the root directory of the Windows hard disk? I don't know, give details, because if I'm not going a bit blind, the error you show in the screenshot is relative to a folder path on your PC.

General WSA build 2211.40000.10.0 based on Android 13 with Magisk Root and Google Play Store

Preface:
You need at least 8 GB RAM that can get exclusively used by WSA, there is absolutely no way to bypass it. Technically you can modify the files to bypass it but then WSA is gonna crash your PC as soon as it launches since it reserves 4 GB of RAM for the VM if you have less than 12 GB RAM. ( 12 GB and above reserves 6 GB RAM for the VM ). Take note that you cannot set WSA to use the page file on computer's SSD, it can only use PC's physical RAM to load into, there is not even a registry hack that can do that.
Some heavy games as Free Fire or as CarX Streets require 8 GB RAM for themselves to flawlessly run, so PC must have at least >= 20 GB RAM ( 8 GB WSA + 4.5 GB Windows 11 OS + 8 GB game ).
Also it doesn't make any sense to install WSA emulator on a desktop computer with less then 4 CPU cores, because you will not have the performance as expected. Reason: the WSA emulator not only shares computer's RAM, but also its CPU cores.

Windows Subsystem for Android (WSA) updated to Android 13 with build 2211.
WSA version 2211.40000.7.0 brings massive improvements in boot performance for WSA, claiming to be about 50%. Improved mouse click input, clipboard stability, application resizing, an upgraded Intel bridge technology for Android 13, and more.
The most important improvement comes with the upgrade to Intel bridge technology ( AKA Houdini ) for Android 13. Reliability improvements to media files opening in Windows. Jumplist entries for applications supporting app shortcuts.
Here is the WSA installer with Magisk Root and Google Play Store :
WSA_2211.40000.10.0_x64_Release-Nightly-with-magisk-a468fd94(25205)-canary-MindTheGapps-13.0-RemovedAmazon
MediaFire is a simple to use free service that lets you put all your photos, documents, music, and video in a single place so you can access them anywhere and share them everywhere.
www.mediafire.com
Take note that the default pre-installed Amazon app store is got removed!
This WSA package supports Project Treble
Note:
The entire WSA ( read: Android 13 OS ) is in one folder stored what occupies >2 GB disk space. The user-apps and their data get by default stored on Windows computer in %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Packages\MicrosoftCorporationII.WindowsSubsystemForAndroid_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\userdata.vhdx - what may eat up >40 GB. Info: A .VHDX file holds contents of a complete hard disk virtually in the form of a single file).
Prereqisites:
1. Remove existing WSA-installation if not done yet.
Otherwise make sure that Hyper-V feature got added to Windows OS:, if not already done yet, either via PowerShell
or manually
2. Make sure in Windows Settings the Developer Options are turned ON
Installation:
1. Download the mentioned .7Z - file,.
2. Create folder C:\WSA if C: drive is a SSD drive and has >40 GB free available disk space
or on any other drive on computer. Remind WSA stores all user-apps by default in %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Packages\MicrosoftCorporationII.WindowsSubsystemForAndroid_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache - you can't change this.
3., Extract the downloaded WSA archive file ( 678 MB ) using 7zip as the file is compressed in 7z format to WSA folder on drive C:. Example code
Code:
D:\7za-v920\7za-x64.exe e C:\WSA\*.7z o C:\WSA
4. Enter the WSA folder and delete the .7z file located therein.
5. Also therein delete the file Install.ps1 because has wrong content.
6. Open Powershell ( recommended v7 ) as Administrator and run this code within
NOTE: If you are using PowerShell 7+, please run
Code:
Import-Module Appx -UseWindowsPowerShell
before using Add-AppxPackage.
This should start installing WSA with Magisk and Play Store immediately.
7. Search Android and the first option should be Windows Subsystem for Android.
Launch it.
Launch Files ( means: enter WSA )
Go to Developer Tab and enable Developer Mode.
Install RootChecker app to verify ROOT - use WSASideloader Tool, available in Microsoft Store
Installl any Android launcher (e.g. Launcher Neox) - use WSASideloader Tool available in Microsoft Store
Recommendation:
Install as next user app on WSA the File Manager + app what allows you to access WSA files from PC - it acts as the FTP server, Windows Explorer is the FTP client:
Info: here is Setting up Windows File Explorer as FTP client explained.
You also may or may not install a browser to access the Internet ( e.g. DuckDuckGo Privacy Browser - its APK is atatched )
Verifying:
You may install CPU-Z, too, to see what you got.. It's APK is attached.
Hint:
If Windows computer has enough RAM ( >=12 GB ) then add WSA to Windows's Start Apps to launch it when you log in.
It is worth mentioning that the version of Microsoft.UI.Xaml is outdated and will cause an error. To resolve this issue, follow these steps:
- Go on https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.UI.Xaml/2.8.1 and Download package
- Extract the zip file and install the appx located in \tools\AppX\x64\Release by clicking on the file.
- Enable Windows Developer Mode and authorize PowerShell scripts that are not signed.
After following these simple steps, the process was successful and functioning correctly. Thanks a lot !

Hi, could u please specify how the app helps one to access the wsa files on pc
The File Manager+ app lets you connect with your PC using different protocols:
You would select FTP​
because FTP allows you​
To access your Android phone’s files on your PC via Wi-Fi without using USB
To send and receive files between Android and PC
You can also perform actions such as copy, move, delete, rename, etc. on your Android files from your PC.
Thank you @jwoegerbauer, nice info. Installed it tonight and it worked a treat. Nice and quick. Nice job thanks.
CAN YOU PLEASE UPLOAD VERSION WITH GAPPS PICO?

The provided WSA installer isn't pre-made by me.. IMO you can add OpenGApps Pico ( Platform: x86_64 ) at your own by means of ADB using the flash-archive.sh script you can get here.
At time of this writing it's "open_gapps-x86_64-9.0-pico-20220503.zip".
At Windows Command prompt you would enter and run the code listed next line-by-line
Code:
adb disconnect 2>nul
adb connect 127.0.0.1:58526
adb shell "mkdir -p -m 755 /sdcard/Download/.genymotion"
adb shell "mkdir -p -m 755 /sdcard/Download/.genymotion/recovery"
adb push C:\open_gapps-x86_64-9.0-pico-20220503.zip /sdcard/Download/
adb push C:\flash-archive.sh /sdcard/Download/
adb shell "cd /sdcard/Download"
adb shell "dos2unix flash-archive.sh"
adb shell "sed -i 's/\/data/sdcard/Download/g' flash-archive.sh"
adb shell "chmod +x flash-archive.sh"
adb shell "flash-archive.sh open_gapps-x86_64-9.0-pico-20220503.zip"
adb shell "rm -f /sdcard/Download/open_gapps-x86_64-9.0-pico-20220503.zip"
adb shell "rm -f /sdcard/Download/flash-archive.sh"
adb shell "rm -r /sdcard/Download/.genymotion"
adb disconnect 2>nul
adb usb
adb reboot
assumed the 2 downloaded files are located in root of Windows computer's drive C:
NOTE: This method was never tested by me, so don't blame me if it does't work as expected.
can someone please guide how to build these ? which repo is working ?

I followed all the steps properly on this post, I got the WSA, magisk and playstore apps in my start menu. But the WSA does not start. The app itself starts but the android apps do not start. Please help
IMO that's contradicting: "But the WSA does not start. The app itself starts but the android apps do not start."
Anyway:
Apps you installed are shown in installed launcher? If so, then any error message / error code gets displayed?
If nothing is shown, even not the launcher, then you probably have a masssive RAM problem or type of installed apps are incpmpatible / unsupported.

I meant that The green coloured WSA app, which shows various options like developer options, turn off wsa, etc starts; But the android apps do not start, i.e the engine does not start. There's no error message, it keeps showing that WSA is starting for ever. I have 16 gigs RAM, with a Ryzen 5 4600h, and the RAM is mostly less than 40% used. I did not install any apps, I only tried to launch Magisk and playstore but the Android engine itself does not start and does not show any error. I tried installing various times but got the same results. However, an older build (android 12 based) that I found on another website gets installed perfectly fine and the apps run as well.
You get this screen, means WSA stucks on loading, correct?
What I'ld do:
Step 1:
Press the Windows + I keys together to open the Settings application.
Step 2:
Find the Apps part and click it to open it. After that, click the Apps & features tab on the right sidebar.
Step 3:
Next, scroll down the page, find the Windows Subsystem Android app, and click the three-dot menu beside it.
Step 4:
Then, click Advanced options. Finally, click the Repair or Reset button to repair or reset the app on Windows 11.
