ROM for watch u8 plus - Other SmartWatches
Hi guys,
I bought a few day ago the watch u8 plus. I give you my first review about this wearable.
It works:
- Time /Date
- synchronization
- vibration
- call / Dialer
- call log
- messages
- alarms
- pedometer
- music (you listen the music storage in the phone)
- camera (take the picture remotely)
- notifier --> additional apk
- Anti Lost / Find Phone --> only works with bluetooth, therefore short distance localization
- Phonebook --> it lists one phonebook from my phone, but I cannot choose which one (SIM or gmail)
- Sleep mode
- Stopwatch
- Language
- Default version: M58_KHR.FN2.V003 Build Time: 2014/11/25 10:11
However there are some features which are not included in this model and they should be!
Listed in the website description and not available in the phone
- Altitude Meter
- Vibration
- Nice interface
The watch is almost the same that the previous u8 (the only difference is the synchronization with iPhone ), I know that there are different ROM available for the U8.
Someone know if those ROMs are compatible with the u8 plus?
In general a good performance and good answer, the micro and speaker are quite competent, nobody noticed that I was talking by the watch. But I got the impression to be calling to Kitt from the Knight Rider
The application for the phone is quite simple but it provides enough information, however you should sync (watch-phone) everyday else it doesn't keep the data from the previous days.

Uhmmm I like it, but still thinking if take one or wait a little for improvements on the watch interface, I've seen on youtube videos. What's your impression?
It's this one, right? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZLohUt0ZFg
Where did you buy it?
Thanks man!

The interface must be one thing to improve, for the rest the watch has a good performance!
serieous? this watch has 3 versions: normal u8, u8 pro and this one u8 plus..

Comparing with the original u8, the u8 plus has less bugs and less delays. The performance of this watch is amazing, I am using it everyday! To count the steps and receive the calls ;D

As far as I can make it out the U-Watch range (actually made by CHR) is:
U8 – Companion watch, MTK6260, 128 x 128 touchscreen, plastic body, rubber strap.
U8 Pro – Watch/phone, MTK 6260, 240 x 240 touchscreen, plastic body, rubber strap.
U10 - Companion watch, MTK6260, 240 x 240 touchscreen, cast metal body, leather strap.
UU Watch – Companion watch, MTK6260, 96 x 120 non touch screen, 4 button controls, round waterproof plastic body, rubber strap.
U8 Plus – as U8 but MTK2501 SoC.
U8 Pro 2 AKA Hi-Watch 3 – as U8 Pro but MTK2502 and restyled body.
U10L – as U10 but MTK2501 SoC.
The advantages of MTK25xx are: better standby power consumption, slightly faster, BlueTooth 4 which improves iOS connectivity and power consumption, future possibilty of adding apps.

my u8 plus firmware.
US measurements? Fahrenheit? etc
I just got my U8 Plus watch and was wondering where you can change it to US measurements - Fahrenheit, feet, inches, 12 hour clock, etc, for ? Is this possible? I looked in all the menus I could possibly find, but am not finding US measurements. Am I missing something or that's just what it is?
I tried running the SmartWatch 6.1.6, 6.1.7, and 7.1.1 versions of the apks I can find.
Thanks!
any of you was managed to use it / connect it to android 5.1 lollipop ?
thank you

Q/A [Q:] When you power OFF device... How do you turn it back ON? [A:] Ctrl+Alt+Del works on most keyboards, and wireless also. :good: [Q:] What is the difference between MX1 and MX2? [A:] MX1: metal case - MX2: plastic case MX1: better heat dissipation - MX2: better wifi signal Both have different Bluetooth chips. Both work on all current ROMs. (source) [Q:] My stick will not clock above 1.2 GHz, where is the 1.6 GHz? [A:] In fact it IS a 1.6 GHz processor. It's downclocked to 1.2 because of temperature and stability. However in benchmarks the same hrdware gets more points for CPU performance in the downlclocked MX1 than in the MK808. A better optimized 1.2 is much more effective than a crappy 1.6. (source)
I got mine few days ago. Seems like this stick is getting more and more popular. Everything on this stick is very smooth. HD streaming from my server via WLAN works perfect (1080p mkv files too). Was hoping for more 3D performance but it´s still OK. GTA Vice city runs perfect. But I am having trouble with gamepads, pretty hard to get them to work correctly. GTA is the only program where the XBox controllers work like they should after I used xpad.ko from the arctools app. USB/BT Joystick center doesn´t recognize any sticks I plug in. Still testing though...
Thanks for the review man! Do you think this is the best stick available on the market? I'm just starting to research on these, and just curious which one is the best bet in the long run, to be supported with newer roms?

Click to collapse agazza said: I´m asking the same question. This seems to be the best one so far? Click to expand... Click to collapse Well, I would lie if I say it´s the best one because I didn´t test other sticks, only phones. I bought the stick because people who own the 802, 808 or other devices say that the imito is the best stick right now. I took their advice and I am happy with that. I noticed some issues with the WLAN connection today. To me it looks like the signal is dropping from time to time but gets back up after 2 or 3 seconds and if you search for this issue you will find people who are reporting the same. I do not have this problem with my other devices so it´s the imitos fault I think. The current stable firmware version does not support "true 1080p" output. As far as I found out it´s 720p upscaled to 1080p which makes the picture look a little bit unsharp. There is a custom ROM from a guy named Finless who took the latest beta ROM with true 1080p support and added some stuff and fixes. I think this will improve the stick even more but I will report back after that. Oh and just to make things clear: I own the imito MX2 not the MX1 - but just the cases differ from those two. The imito MX1 has serious WLAN problems because of the metalcase. It´s nice to see a company noticing their own mistakes and listening to the community, otherwise the MX2 would not exist Edit: One thing I am not able to check right now is that people are complaining that the rk3066 does not support surround sound output. The signal gets downmixed to stereo regardless of which source. My av-reciever is built into a shelf and for that I have no opportunity to check this myself. Edit2: Just read my text, hope my english is still okay
There is a rom for the iMito MX1 & MX2: http://www.freaktab.com/showthread....2-Finless-ROM-1-5-Root-debloat-init-d-support
yeah that´s the one I was talking about. I will backup my device and install this rom in about 1 hour

Click to collapse doesn't matter which you buy, the moment it arrives there are more and more better on the market. At the moment there are quadcore processor ones too, and next week on the CES you'll see more of these... However about imito mx1/2 the wifi and BT driver are not open source, so until Mediatek doesn't release source for these drivers, you'll not have many custom roms. BUT 1. no need for it, stock rom is fast and snappy 2. if you not willing to use wifi or BT (internet can come through USB-LAN adapter from router), you can use any custom rom made for MK808 devices.

Hard MX1 firmwares collection: http://goo.gl/ki6We :good:
wish more people here would jump on this. i have the mx2 and its a decent little device. i am grabbing a usb wifi adapter today and going to push the new drivers to the device when i get home. the internal wifi chip is not all that great. i had a hell of a time figuring out that unless you are within 10-15 feet of the router, it just wont connect. but with a external usb adapter people have reported way better results. so on to that i go! i'll try to post back as i'd love to get a real community of users here at xda instead of reading at the infested websites of armtvtech and freaktab. i feel like my pc got malware visiting those websites lol
I have Deal Extreme SKU 165489. (Jesurun NX003) Sure looks the same as iMito MX1 (SKU 166114), (Of course I paid $5 more ) Does anybody know if it is really the same? -- e.g. Can I use the same firmwares? Also, a couple of notes, in case it helps anyone: I also have the Measy RC11 Air Mouse - Works fine, have never had to reset accelerometer. ADB runs as root out of the box, so there is no need to root for most changes (such as editing build.prop) Speaking of build.prop --- When I changed my ro.lcd.density from 160 to 140 (to try to get a more "PC" like experience), it worked, but I lost Movies&TV on Google Play, and several Apps I tried to install reported incompatible (Adobe Reader, for one). I set it back, and both worked again. Un-powered Mini travel USB hub works fine. 2nd Serial port works as OTG, with the included adapter, so that you end up with 2 full size USB ports. GE branded generic webcam worked fine as a USB microphone, but when I hit Search with Camera in Google Search/Google Now, it crashes Google Search. I have not installed a camera app to test more. A RadioShack/GigaWare USB mic/audio device works fine, both as a Mic, and a Audio output device.
My stick will not clock above 1200 MHz - can somebody confirm?

I believe there's a similar device with an oc kernel out there that may come to the MX eventually. I'd like to see a guide on adding a heat sink.
Smartwatch OS (Zeblaze Crystal, Oukitel A28 and NO.1 G2)
I bought a Zeblaze Crystal watch. Nice object. Unfortunately, for an error (I tried to use the Arduino suite in order to understand if it would be possible to program it)... I deleted its firmware. So I searched and I found that the MTK2502 is the common cpu for many models... and that the OS of one can be installed on another. In this moment I installed on the Zeblaze Crystal the OS of the Oukitel A28 and it works perfectly. I also tried the OS of the NO.1 G2 Smartwatch and it worked nice. This last has more apps, like a video player for video copied in the watch. But this OS reversed the screen, so it is better for people who wear the phone on the right wrist. In any case changing the OS is really a simple operation and it took just 5 minutes. I could say that the Oukitel OS is like the original. Maybe the watch layout a little better, but the same functionalities. Now I would like to share with you all the possible links to the OS and to the software that it is needed to install it. Maybe we could create a repository for all this OS (for the MTK2502) and, in the future, when someone could understand the ROM layout, also try to add new apps or watch faces. Obviously, install a new OS can brick your device. I did it without problem, but be aware of the risk. So, to install the new OS just download the tool for the NO.1 G2 Smartwatch (the file has the OS, the needed tool and the instructions): https://goo.gl/jpNQdd If you want, instead, the Oukitel A28 OS, just refer to the link (the OS to be used with the previous tool): http://depositfiles.com/files/kddf8hbsu I observed that, in any case, all these OS are the same for what concerns the stability of the connection with the phone. I add that, to update the OS, you have to: turn off it connect the watch with the cable to the PC start the software and the update process and, when it says something like "searching" press and keep pressed the watch button.

where can i found the Zeblaze Crystal OS? Can you send me? [email protected]
I am sorry, but I have not found the Zeblaze Crystal OS. I have installed the Oukitel A28 (see the link before). It works perfectly.
Hi Marko...firstly, thanks for all the hard work you've put in here. I own a No.1 G.2 which I bought in December last year. I love it BUT it does not have gesture wake for the screen and you have to press the button for the screen to light up. Apparently the latest firmware allows this or, as you indicate above, you can use the Oukitel a28 firmware for the same effect. My problem is that I have tried downloading the new firmware for the G2...I can load the scatter file...the software says that the chip in the watch is compatible but when I click start nothing happens. The bar stays at 0%. I've tried it with the watch switched on connected by USB and switched off. Nothing happens. I've tried pressing the power button as you indicate above...nothing. When I connect the USB cable with the watch powered on the notice "Mass Storage" or "Com Port" comes up but when I try clicking on "Com Port" the watch says "Not allow". This is driving me nuts. Can you help? The watch is still working fine so I haven't damaged the existing firmware but I'd dearly like to have gesture control or the nice a28 firmware.
Hello I came across this threat and had the big hope that this could help me. I have a A28 Oukitel and I am very happy with it, as for it's cheapness and the way it works and its watchfaces. Now as the Zeblaze is out that watch has one more nice watchface and what I am missing it has a stopwatch. I really hoped that I could do it vice versa to marco but unfortunately the Zeblaze firmware is not of the same kind as the firmwares of the No.1 G2 and the A28 they both refer in the config.file to general files based on TinySystem-ROMs but the Zeblaze does refer to a .bin-file. I am not really an expert in programming so I don't know if this is basically because the Zeblaze supposed to have more RAM 32/64 MB or is it because the firmware is based on another platform? My question is: is there a way to read them out and transform one to another? Does any kind of programming tool make it understandable to a basic PC-User? Any kind of deeper knowledge would help me. @ Stroppytommy: I am not sure if you got this right. Using the flashtool needs administration rights! And the PC is checking the COM-Port only within milliseconds so it is important that you have turned the watch off! Than after! starting the download you connect the turned off watch to the PC. That should turn the "Searchnig..." hint into naming the COM-Port and the process begins.

The new 2016 (No.1.G2) firmware is crap, however. It now shows motion sensing in the menu (for auto gesture on) but selecting that option has no effect on the watch at all. ---------- Post added at 07:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:21 PM ---------- Will the Oukitel firmware run on the No.1 G2 ???

Advice choosing Chinese smartwatch
Hi, I'm looking for a smartwatch that, while connected via bluetooth with the smartphone, permits: - to view and reply to notifications from messaging apps like WhatsApp (also recording the reply, it's not important to write it) - to take incoming calls directly from the watch (speaking with the watch and not with the smartphone). Moreover, I would like a fast smartwatch with a good battery. Can you help me with some models? I like the finow x3 plus and the IQI I3, but I don't know if they have these features. Thanks!
GETTING STARTED with Phone/Smartwatches like KingWear, Finow, Lemfo & Co
Hello, iam interested in buying a round Smartwatch (i didnt like the sqaure style) and boarderless(without a black ring between case and display, but this isnt really needed) for about 100€/$ ... but have some questions before buying (you know it is a lot of money at all)... - Is it possible to use it as a "full" tethering device (initiate a call via Smartwatch, get Messages AND REPLY SMS and Whatsapp messages shortly, i know the issue with the small keyboard !)? - Wish to use the pedometer the whole day and may use the heart rate monitor sometimes (highly 1 to 2 times a day) and want to synchronize it via bluetooth (know this is mostly possible with fundowear app or the related alternatives) - Didnt want to put in a sim, but like to have mobile networking functions! Is it possible to thetering for example the fundowear app and mobile network both parallele via bluetooth? (i know this may results in low datarates if possible, but wish a longer battery life with this.) - According to this, i wish to use the "ok google" feature to simply search some informations on the internet. - Like the full android on the smartwatch, so may i want to install some small apps to it... and which apps will be a must have for a smartwatch (may alternatives to preinstalled onces)? - Wish to have the possibility to create or download a new Watchface (because not all on stock watchfaces are good or may too simple or too colorful, and i already noticed that it isnt simply like for android wear devices). - And want the feature of swinging the arm to see the watchface for about two times an hour at least! - On unbox and review videos i have seen the feature of switching to square aspect ratio, i want this feature too! This questions and suggestions are mostly software or firmware related... And which Smartwatch has the attribute of Waterresitence (so i can wash my hands with it, not for swimming or diving)? And want the possibility to change the armwrist with a standard clock armwrist!!! And whitch one has more than 2GB free disk space for some apps, pictures and may some voice records or notes? I know this forum is the right place for all these questions but missing a sticky thread with answers for these or other questions... So can you tell me which Smartwatch has all the features and functions and a battery for a daily use (about 12h, by using the listened features)???And is it possible to buy a cheap second charging cable (most are using the 4pin magnetic plug, may they are compatible)??? Thank you very much! kante_1
------ for future purpose , like collecting the answers or add links ------------------ Found this on Youtube for costomize Watchfaces (Smartwatch Ticks - Playlist Customize Watchfaces Tips) https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLGZLicZ6A2vUbzBPkLGXcSffQ90OPmyc6 but didnt know if this is the same coding for other Smartwatches like KW88 or No.1 G6 or Y3 or DM368 or LF16 ... please help anyway
Thank you very much! I think the chinese Smartwatch thing is too frustrating at this time
This video may help you cut through a lot of the confusion so you can focus on which type of smartwatch will really fit your needs best: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hvOvGThb3i4
No. 1 D5+ Searching for Custom ROM's, companion app alternative
Hi guys, I bought before 2 weeks a No.1 D5+ via Gearbest without any problems. Watch is working and really nice. My problem is, that I want more a smartphone assistent instead of a stand alone watch (which the D5+ is disigned for). I'm using the watch without SIM card. I thought that the D5+ will fulfill the requirements for companion or stand alone watch, but it is more a stand alone watch. Do someone know that there are any custom roms for the D5+ (MTK6580) out there which are providing all the features, also of companion/bluetooth watches? My main searched features are: - Text notifications display - Call notification + accept or decline incoming call - BT call with watch via smartphone - Music control via watch of smarphone music player app (i have a sony xperia Z5 compact) - of course, flexible watch faces ... all other features are very welcome If not, are there any other companion apps for smartphone usable which are working with the watch helper (on the watch) compatible? Or do somebody know, how I can disable the bluetooth connection alert from the watch helper app? I know that there is a Xposed module usable, but on my z5c (Android 7) there is no Xposed provided yet. Thank's for your hints, advices and information. Greetz, Marc

Thanks for the link old_fart. I red a little bin it this, but there are no Custom roms which I was searching for. But some interesting things. I will stay on watching this posts. If someone knows complete new Custom rons for these smartwatches I would appreciate the information.
