[S] Car camera app

Hi at all,
I am using a CarCamOne but would like to replace it with my android phone, as the quality is far better.
However, I don't know, if there is a suitable app: I need an app which captures what the camera sees (i.e. the street and the cars) while driving. It does not need to show it, but can run in the background, so that I can use GPS navigation at the same time.
It should be possible to specify a certain path in which the same video gets overwritten everytime I drive. Let's say I drive on January, 1st, so it save 010111.avi, then when I drive next time, it deletes this file and creates one of the specific date, so that I always have the latest drive on my sd card.
This whole thing is meant to be able to prove what happened when an accident has occured.
(I would also accept such a program for Windows Mobile, if there is none for Android.)
Thank you very much!

Want this, too.
I'm driving a lot. German motorways are fast, idiots all around risk is high. There were certan situations in the past where an app like this would be very helpful for evidence.
Would be great if it will work automatically when car mode is detected by snapping the device in the car mount near the window.
I try to but can't remember ... I'm sure that I have seen similar feature in another camera app ... but sorry, memory has gone.
PS: would create finest youtube stuff, too
PPS: maybe something from here: http://www.androidzoom.com/android_applications/car video recorder "car accident recorder" or "video loop" ?

I tried "video loop" test app with 5 seconds restriction.
In car mode app the cam stood still and stuck.
When trying the programm as a normal application it creates files without file extension (like .mp4 or whatelse). Wondering why it's available in the market.
At myvideoloop.com there is a remark, that the android version is still under development. So, still searching.

Search the market for AutoGuard Blackbox. I haven't tried it, but it sounds like what you are looking for.

Thanks!
Seems to be pretty well with several options like limit by video size or limit by minutes and so on. Also video quality can be changed in several way.
When linked to the carmode-app it works in my private couch potato mode. Will test it soon while driving the next days.
Some features will work in the paid app only, but the free app should be enough for testing purpose. $1.89 / €1,39 if you wanna have all features. Cheap if it works.
( Can't imaging to use the collision detector. I will recognize an accident by myself - exploding cars are very loud. )
@lamajstro, sorry, for hijacking your thread. Hope it will help you, too.

Thank you all.
Stepsch, no problem at all. Could you please give a feedback to that program after having tested it? That would be great!
Thank you!

I humbly suggest my free app: DailyRoads Voyager. You can search for it on the Android Market. More info here: http://www.dailyroads.com/voyager.php

Video Road (http://www.androlib.com/android.application.com-androidlab-videoroad-qnEmF.aspx) also seems to have decent reviews...

I tested AutoGuard Blackbox for only few km until now.
It was working from a link in the car app as expected. I used the original shipped micro USB cable with a car charger, so the phone switched immediately to car mode. The app does what it says with standard settings. It feels a little bit ... how should I say ... cumbersome or sluggish. But this could be caused by my individual phone setup.
DailyRoads Voyager: installed only, but not tested in car so far. When using at home it feels a lil bit more lightweigt, fluently than AutoGuard.
Would be great to send the videos to an hoster of your choice. Until now it can be sent to Daily Roads Website. To be honest - I am lil bit to paranoid to send it over there, I also try not to use most social hubs.
Will take a look at Video Road too.
Testing those stuff creates lots of workload, as there are so much settings available for video quality and lots more. Won't be easy to get comparable results.

So, now I am with DailyRoads Voyager, which works well in the background.
Issues: GPS position is often incorrect and km/h is always zero or much to slow.
An additional running navi app was a little bit too much for the i9000, both app slightly stuck from time to time.

Glad to hear you made the wise choice
The GPS position and speed values depend on what the GPS sensor relays back to the apps. I don't do any calculations for speed, except the conversion from m/s (what Android provides) to km/h or mph.
I've noticed that the speed readings become more accurate when the number of visible satellites increases. In the next version of the app (1.6) I show the number of satellites, and filter out speed readings obtained with 4 or less satellites.
Beta versions of v.1.6 are currently in tests, and I expect to release it to the Android Market in about a week. Will post here when this happens.

Good news! Thx a lot! Looking forward your ping.
Speed is not so important while driving. Also the position is not sooo critical. But maybe it will be helpful in case of accident as evidence, when the videos have time stamp, defined position and correct speed - when one crashes in a gasoline truck.

Indeed, the GPS info is not always important. But, video evidence is, as explained in this recent TV news: "Victim uses smartphone app to record hit-and-run"

Man, you have *no* idea how much this app is going to help me out! *EXACTLY* what I'm looking for, thank you.

Anyone want to recommend a windshield mount?
I dont need the full blown N1 mount from google/htc, and a lot of the cheaper ones on ebay look like they would do the trick, but the bigger question is, if the mount will end up in the frame of what DRV is recording?

One prob is: most cheap mountings that I saw until now are somehow not stable. They let the phone vibrate all the time and your eyes have to vibrate in same frequency when you want to watch the vids afterwards.
Important is a stable and short neck between windshield sucker and the device itsself.
Third party products or those universal mounting need mostly one hand more to connect the USB charger in the phone. A lil bit uncomfortable, but if this isn't a issue for you, you should take care that it can't vibrate so much only.
Brodit seems to have good reputation and has lot of matching parts.

It took more than I expected to finalize the beta tests, but now DailyRoads Voyager version 1.6 is on the Android Market. Added quite a number of features, and the full changelog is listed here: http://dailyroads.com/voyager/changelog

i tried DailyRoads Voyager v1.6 on my Desire HD. i'm sorry to inform you that i had no chance but uninstalled it within an hour.
with it on at the background for some minutes, my device automatically rebooted itself (knowing that it was a known issue in capturing GPS signal, i've turned off the option of using GPS signal in DailyRoads Voyager). i had to uninstalled it after auto-rebooting the third time.

Sorry for causing such problems The symptoms seem to indicate incompatibilities between video resolution/encoder/format. If you have Android 2.2 installed, it'd be best to select HQ (High Quality) in the app, and only try CQ (Custom Quality) settings if you know your device can handle those. The native camera app can also be used to manually determine what the camera is capable of.

Hi
I've tried DailyRoads on SGS 2.2.1 (JPY) with root/lagfix and i'm having strange problems with it ...
It looks like DailyRoads makes problem with cache of system or sth like that - after 1st time install and run, everything was great through about 5 mins until freeze and autoreset ... then i had all my apps settings erased (contacts, smooth calendar settings, gameloft games savegames etc.), icons/shortcuts layout set to default, menu sorted alphabeticaly and every app with account like facebook, twitter, google reader started to freeze so i've erased cache of DailyRoads and all of those freezing apps but it didn't work. I had to reinstall those apps to fix it, and configure them/other apps again ;/
Doing this i've also uninstalled DailyRoads, and since my SGS was quite well configured again i started to think to give it 2nd chance ;>
It's sad it happened again, but this time after about 10-15 mins of using DailyRoads, and it only erased cache setting of smooth calendar and extended controls so i've uninstalled DailyRoads again
I'm not 100% sure why it's happening but until today i didn't have any problems, and it happened twice while i was testing dailyroads ... maybe it's because of lagfix ?
Anyone having similar problems ?
Besides DailyRoads is gr8 and i'd even buy it if it wasn't free ... and causing such problems on my SGS

On the fence, can you help me decide

I don't know about ideal but I have my own personal requirements.
1. Notifications for Text messages, Phone Calls and Emails. I don't use Facebook or Twitter anymore but I do understand lots of people still do so those would be important as well.
2. Ability to dismiss incoming calls or answer. I hate those bluetooth headsets so talking directly into the watch would be better for ME. Don't know how well that would work but if the call is important enough or private than have the ability to swap over to just the phone.
3. The screen is so small games really won't matter to me but the ability to go to Playstore and download various Apps would be ideal. Don't really know what I would really need on my watch as any Apps I use regularly I would rather see on my 5" screen.
4. Calendar with Notifications would be great as I could set dates and times on my phone and be alerted thru the watch.
5. Not much else is really required besides changing watch faces to different designs and the occasional trip to the internet on the fly with readable screens. Sometimes I need to google something and it would be great to be able to do this at random.
Currently I am looking at the SmartQ Z Watch and the ZGPAX S5 Smartwatch

I have had this watch for 2 days, comments as below:-
1. This works perfectly.
2. I haven't figured out how you can talk directly into the watch. I do not think this is possible yet although you can plug in a headset and has a built in microphone. With the updates coming in weekly I assume this might be possible through an update.
3. Playstore is not pre-installed. Anyways I do not think most of the apps would work in Playstore since they are not tailored for the screen size.
4. No problem with this either.
5. No inbuilt web browser but I assume you can install one, some of the custom roms has this I have read.

I have ZGPAX - they haven't released software for the notifications and call handling options, like the Galaxy Gear has... but it's a great device for sure!

I have zgpax.
Mine came with playstore preinstalled. Can run most ICS compatible applications, oddly though launchers ie Nova Launcher do not work. There is no home button anyway. Switching between programs involves using the back button a lot and switching from the home screen/watch launcher. ADW launcher works but every time the phone is turned on the clock launcher starts instead. Don't know how to switch default.
Google calendar is preinstalled.
I use MySMS to mirror text messages from my main phone, and use a prepaid sim with cheap data just for notifications, ie gmail, ebay.
Do not get SmartQ Z watch if running apps is important to you. It runs a MIPS cpu instead of an ARM cpu, and most apps will not run on MIPS by default.
ZGPAX is not rooted by default but can be very easily.
No volume buttons, volume is best controlled by quick volume profiles from notification tray. Four profiles are set by default, general, silent, meeting (vibrate mode), and outdoor (loud mode).
Only buttons are power and back. Menu button is soft button in notification tray next to clock.
Wifi reception has been excellent for something of this size, though understandably a little slowish.

Actually on the smartq z watch most apps excluding a lot of games work just fine without MIP compatibility or MIPS conversion . some have screen issues but that problem lies with any smartwatch .

SOFT BRICK OR STUCK in a BOOTLOOP? REVERT TO STOCK
TWRP is required to use the following backup. Please make sure you still have it installed and are able to access it.
Download the stock OS backup Here http://www.4shared.com/zip/dxnYQfmpba/stock_zgpax.html
You need to be able to access your SD Card, if not you may need to use an external SD. Navigate to /SD Card/TWRP/Backup (or create the folder if it doesn't exist). Next you need to make a folder called Stock ZGPAX. Then your are going to place the files you downloaded here from the link above.
IF you cannot access your SD Card, try using an external MicroSD card. You will have to make the /TWRP/Backup Directory and Folder yourself... and then place the files in there manually.
Finally, you will REBOOT into TWRP and Navigate to the restore option. Look for your folder there and restore this backup.
.

SMS & INCOMING CALL NOTIFICATIONS
Thus far, the only app i have verified to work RELIABLY is TABLET TALK, which is currently $2.99 in the PLAY Store.
You may need to install PIE CONTROLS to have the MENU BUTTON functionality first. PIE is free in play store - Afterwards:
Install on Both, android phone and the smart watch.
On the android phone you are using, setup the device in settings >> at the bottom >> The phone should be selected as PHONE
On the smart watch, go into the same settings menu at the bottom >> The device should be selected as tablet
On both devices, you should press the bluetooth icon.... Both will turn yellow, and then GREEN, when they paid. DONE!
PERFORMANCE
Using a TOOLBOX / RooT app (such as Rom TOOLBOX or Trickstermod) recommendations below to help performance and battery.
Scheduler --> Change I/O to DEADLINE - This will increase SD Card read Speeds --> The stock is CFG, Deadline is usually faster!
Governor ---> Try ON DEMAND Governor. Can help eliminate over-heating without sacrificing performance. Stock is Hybrid
XPOSED FRAMEWORK
.A number of apps will not fit within the visible area of the device without changing the DPI. Confirmed that Xposed and App settings works with the ZGPAX and can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2072081. For example, in the ADW popup dialog you cannot change screen borders or change wallpaper until you change the DPI to 100.

USEFULE APPS
Some useful good apps that install and work for this device. Will update frequently with your help: ​
Battery Monitor Widget - This widget may help updating the battery percent and reflect more accurately at all times.
Awesome ON OFF - Similar to galaxy gear, turning the watch activates screen on, with vibrate
Shake Screen ON OFF by Freebooks - Simple shake to turn the screen on or off - no need to use home button
CPU SPY is good for monitoring deep sleep... in case you install an app that keeps the device awake.
ADW EX Launcher - 4x4 grid is perfect, runs smoothly, can stretch clock widgets and such
Active Apps - Good for clearing apps and Ram in one convenient location
DigiClock - Large 4x4 clock with built in themes
Frama Root - For quick rooting
Google Maps - Be sure to actually download and install from the playstore or it may not work
NO Lock - Removes lockscreen and you can sleep / wake watch from whichever home screen you left off at
PIE controls - So you don't have to always be hitting the hardware POWER and Back buttons... also allows many toggles
ROM TOOLBOX - All root tools, file explorer, boot animation etc etc

thanks for your works
i wainting arrive my device :laugh:

Volume Change
Since mine isn't here yet, I guess someone else can test this. It's from the Joe's Tech Review website and it's for a different model, but it might work.
Z1 smart watch phone Engineering code. (Bas Advalvas)
INCREASE CALL VOLUME: found it!
Finally found it. And it's easy! Call sound value is too low on the Z1, 1 of it's main drawbacks.
■Start the phone dialer and dial: *#*#8787#*#* This will start Engineer Mode on de the Z1.
■Select Audio, then Normal Mode. Choose the 'type' Speech, change the value 6 into 0 (that's the loudest) and press Set.
■Press the Back button once. Now select LoudSpeaker Mode. Choose the 'type' Speech, change the value 24 (?) into 10 (on my Z1, the value 0 made the sound very soft, probably because of the system that prevents feedbacklooping from speaker to microphone (how you call this?)) and press Set. Press the Back Button a few times to leave Engineer Mode.
That's all! The standard call volume increases a bit (40%?), but the handsfree volume (which is otherwise about the same as the standard) inceases a lot (150%?) AND the annoying interference sound is now gone!!!

The speaker is incredibly loud... and being that you haven't actually received your zgpax, i don't think you will need any volume increase.

Would you describe some of the customization you've performed with ADW-EX in order to get such a great look? I haven't used the pay version before, so perhaps it is a silly question, but how did you get such large icons on the main page?

I'm considering buying this watch. Two questions:
1. How does it handle notifications from my phone?
2. Can I use Bluetooth to connect my phone to it since I don't want to put my SIM card in there?

zNiiC,

To answer your questions directly, not yet. It is designed to be a stand-alone device (that being said it may happen eventually).

Humm. Bummer. I think I read somewhere that someone used mysms. Not sure if it was in the other thread or for a different watch.

If you really want to make it happen, you can use Tasker, Zapier and Pushover to do the job. Here's a useful explanation intended for a different application. Bottom line: if you expect to transmit more than 100 notifications per month, you'll have to shell out some ridiculous money.

Couldn't you use tasker along with either open watch or notify my android since you can install apps on this watch? (Not quite sure how these apps work). Might be worth a shot to see if it is able to send notifications.

Im using 1.3.3.8 which is an over hauled update of the app... All prior versions are clearly not as good.
I downloaded digi clock widget, which has tons of built in theme and stretches out nicely (4X4 widget).
Also disabled action bar in adw, disable dock, and grid set to 4x4 for the homescreens. That's really the foundation of my cosmetic tweaks. Also i completely disabled lockscreen as described in OP so immediately the watch awakens to the clock on the homescreen

Hi guys,
Newbie here. I too bought the ZGPAX smart watch about 3 weeks ago, OEM version. I also purchased another model EC-309 from HOPU watches, which is based on similar hardware MTK6577, Android 4.0 and with the extra that it has 3G network, different hardware layout (camera on the side not front).
Purchased the ZGPAX for around 140$ odd plus shipping, EC-309 on the other hand was priced above $230. Full disclosure, I own a retail store selling OEM Android tablets in Indochina and would like to add smart watches into my product portfolio.
I would like to get some tips on how to extend the battery life seeing as some users managed to be able to get 1 to 1 1/2 days use on a single charge . Rooted the devices, lowered the CPU range. Tried basic user stuff like, screen timeout, brightness. Switched from 3G to GSM. Still cant get more than 6-8hr battery life. Have tried DX battery Saver Pro, this really extend the batt life but at the at the expense of shutting off wifi and 3G (not acceptable solution). Any other ideas?
For those who might be interested, here's a comparison of the two devices
1) ZGPAX touchscreen runs much hotter than the EC-309
2) ZGPAX has superior speakers, music sounds clearer and louder, no distortion at higher levels
3) ZGPAX has SD card slot, EC-309 only has internal 4GB
4) EC-309 slightly better finish, aluminium bezel, ZGPAX feels a little plasticky
5) Similar firmware for both models. Same issues, Google voice, Skype, Facebook crashes or does not work.
6) Similar battery life - 6 to 8 hr max
7) Similar battery monitoring issues - battery indicator not accurate
8) Both models have good wifi and 3G reception
9) EC-309 comes with Launcher 8 as a default..Win 8 style launcher, no custom launcher like ZGPAX.
10) EC-309 uses micro SIM , ZGPAX regular SIM size
Will share more on apps that work for me soon.

Hi guys,
Newbie here. I too bought the ZGPAX smart watch about 3 weeks ago, OEM version. I also purchased another model EC-309 from HOPU watches, which is based on similar hardware MTK6577, Android 4.0 and with the extra that it has 3G network, different hardware layout (camera on the side not front).
Purchased the ZGPAX for around 140$ odd plus shipping, EC-309 on the other hand was priced above $230. Full disclosure, I own a retail store selling OEM Android tablets in Indochina and would like to add smart watches into my product portfolio.
I would like to get some tips on how to extend the battery life seeing as some users managed to be able to get 1 to 1 1/2 days use on a single charge . Rooted the devices, lowered the CPU range. Tried basic user stuff like, screen timeout, brightness. Switched from 3G to GSM. Still cant get more than 6-8hr battery life. Have tried DX battery Saver Pro, this really extend the batt life but at the at the expense of shutting off wifi and 3G (not acceptable solution). Any other ideas?
For those who might be interested, here's a comparison of the two devices
1) ZGPAX touchscreen runs much hotter than the EC-309
2) ZGPAX has superior speakers, music sounds clearer and louder, no distortion at higher levels
3) ZGPAX has SD card slot, EC-309 only has internal 4GB
4) EC-309 slightly better finish, aluminium bezel, ZGPAX feels a little plasticky
5) Similar firmware for both models. Same issues, Google voice, Skype, Facebook crashes or does not work.
6) Similar battery life - 6 to 8 hr max
7) Similar battery monitoring issues - battery indicator not accurate
8) Both models have good wifi and 3G reception

Really depends on how you use the device.... i could get 3 / 4 days out of it, simply using it as a watch to check the time. Streaming wi-fi and videos and downloading stuff is a whole different story. Have you tried changing the CPU Governor? I have not lowered the stock cpu settings... mine sits at 1001mhz max and 250 min. Deep sleeps about 90% of the time

Much thanks for the quick feedback BigBison! Frankly the watch gets fully used most days, I am actively chatting on WeChat, checking time, playing around with some basic voice recognition apps (utter, voice reading). Am trying to squeeze as much as possible out of the device. Will try to lower the CPU settings to half 667mhz and see if that helps. IO on deadline and Govenor OnDemand.
BTW, Any devs out there want to help with Custom ROMS? Am happy to donate towards the purchase of a smartwatch for the dev if it can help resolve the battery, Skype, Facebook and Voice search issues.
Also heard from my OEM supplier in China that a new version with Android 4.3 will be coming out early 1st Quarter 14. Will keep you guys informed.

wow that is very cool! keep us posted, we love updates! haha
Also if you find useful information or good apps for the watch let me know so i can update the OP in the meantime for other peeps.
Cheers!

There's also Augmented Smart Watch Pro (Play Store), however I suspect it's still the same issue that ZGPAX is a phone, not a watch. Might be worthwhile to reach out to those developers to check their pulse on this application.

Elegance u8 watch

this is a cheap watch, do NOT expect support from the manufacturer
there is also a cloned version, sold as a real u8, no way to tell the difference until you receive it
DO NOT FLASH YOU WATCH!
it might be a clone and render it USELESS
CONS:
-there will never be apps developed for it
-you have to have phone or media audio sent to the watch, otherwise it can't connect
-crappy rubber band, attracts dust likecrazy
-the watch screen is off when in standby, so you have to press the button to see anything
-call quality through it's sucks, both microphone and speaker
-display is unreadable outdoors
-NO support from manufacturer
-NO central location for firmware updates
-NO decent companion app, only generic notifications, no filter possible, only based per app
PROS:
-cheap
-doesn't look too bad
stay away is my advice

interesting, the UI very close to i'm watch, home screen anyway.

removed

the manufacturer sent me the BTNotifier app, so i've been able to try out some stuff
sadly, all isn't well
the notifier app is very generic, you can make a selection from all your apps, but all that does is show a generic message on the watch, not the content of that message (like "new tweet" but not the tweet itself)
that's the whole reason i have my smartwatch, to see messages at a glance, dismiss whatever is not important and grab my phone when it is
will send feedback to the manufacturer, but am not expecting much...

Hi,
I just bought this model. It seemed beautiful and with many features.
The screen is not in color? In the photos seems to b/w.
The battery can stand how long? The bluethoot not fail?
You are not satisfied with him?
How much was yours? In the link you placed it very very expensive...
Reg,
FB

the link i shared was for 2 watches, not for 1, what did you pay for it?
yes the screen is color, look at the analog clock face, the seconds hand is red
and no i'm not impressed with this watch
haven't tried it for long, so no idea how long the battery lasts or how stable the bluetooth connection is
it does not have (native) support for facebook/twitter/whatsapp/gmail, something my Sony Smartwatch 2 does have
it does support sms and has a general "catch all" option for any app you choose, but for twitter it will just say "you have a new tweet" and not the message content
the screen is hardly readable outside, i have to admit Sony did a pretty good job with their transflective display
it also times out too quick, dims the screen in about 4,5 seconds and goes totally black after another 5,5 seconds
all notifications, not matter the application, are grouped together and you can't swipe to see them, you have to use the touch buttons at the bottom
if you disable both phone and media audio, the watch disconnects completely, at least one needs to be enabled

Hi,
I bought here
How works the function "Answer or Dial calls from your wrist"...has good sound?
...and a remote control camera of your smartphone works?
One thing I don't like in the Sony Smartwatch, if you disconnect (BT) of your samrtphone it off the clock, this is bad ...in the U watch does not happen...it's truth?
...I see, this is not the smartwatch announce in the description of sale

Hi,
No, in Sony Smartwatch 2 Hour Watchface is still displayed and always ON even without phone. Many app can run without phone : stopwatch, timer, alarm, many note like SmartNotes, Evernote, GMail Note, Notification historic : Gmail, K9Mail and all others received before no connection.....

OK...
...so, you're not using the U8...you use the sony Sony Smartwatch 2 :good:
...I will wait for my U8 and I'll see if I solve the problem of messages.

Got my watch today...
Language selection is limited to chinese/english, no other options.
Build version of the firmware: M28_KHR.CN1.V007
Will add more info when i know more!
(any questions are welcome)...

I've got the same watch few days ago too,
The initial version of firmware is M28_KHR.CN1.V008
And then, I ask the 2 different versions of firmware from the vendor to see if any new feature or improvement,
The only difference I've found so far is the backlight timeout value can be changed,
Are you interested to take a look?

thanks @alexcc59 for those files!
will have a look, being able to set the screen timeout it the first of many changes this watch needs
did you also get a newer version of BTNotifier?
i have v1.3.21 right now
edit: there's two versions of the firmware? one chinese and one english? or what is the difference?
and how do i get this thing to go into flash mode?

Yes, I already got that APK too.
As I tried,
The M28_KHR.FN2.V002 firmware support English, French...ETC, total 13 languages, build date: 2014/4/2,
And the M28_KHR_CN1_V011 firmware only support English & Simplify Chinese, build date: 2014/4/9,
But I don't exactly know what's the difference except language support.
I figured out the flashing procedure by myself,
If you want to try, you can follow the steps below~
1. Install driver.
2. Switch on and connect the watch with standard micro-USB cable.
3. Run the "Flash_tool.exe" as administrator.
4. Loacate the 2 files then press the "Download" button as the attached picture.
5. Swith off the watch then it will start to flash automatically.
6. Do not interrupt the process until it finished.

so which version of the btnotifier apk do you have?
managed to update the firmware, thanks!
i'm fine with english, so i picked the CN V11 version
noticed these changes:
-2 extra clock faces, 1 digital and 1 analog
-as you already mentioned, the screen timeout setting
-interaction with phone seems quicker, like loading the phone book and accessing the camera
sadly the screen timeout setting only adds more time to the period where it's in power save mode, the time it's in full brightness is still only 4.5-5 seconds, that should be selectable as well
a real deal breaker is that i can't dial out with my phone and have audio on my phone, i should be able to choose by dialing/answering with either watch or phone
it's like hands free always on, unacceptable
it also still disconnects if i switch off both phone audio and media audio
so will wait for another firmware to try again

Which phone do you use?
In my case, I use HTC One M7,
I can choose which device to call/answer in dialer,
Just press the same button as speakerphone then choose while calling,
And I also unchecked the audio streaming option in bluetooth setting on my phone,
Then it will not playback via the poor speak of the watch

see sig, HTC Butterfly s
so you can choose audio on the watch, but i want audio to be on the phone if i use the phone's dialer
they really need to add native facebook/twitter/gmail/whatsapp support to the BTNotifier, useless otherwise, i want to see content on the watch

first smartwatch
Hey guy's I was thinking about buying this watch as well. I have never had one before.
I would love to easily change the song, which my phone is playing through my earbuds. Is this possible with this watch? or can I only change songs and play them from the speaker? Also I don't really get if you guys already solved the fact that you could not pick up your normal phone while the watch is connected?
but most important of all I wan't to be able to have both my phone and my smartwatch on vibrate/silent. I am a student and can't have my phone making any sounds during class.
Is there someone who can answer these questions for me? I have found a good deal for this watch on internet and want to order quick
thanks in advance!!
peace:good:

well, the Smartwatch 2 does all that, and has a way better screen, AND displays content of messages, which this one doesn't, for most things anyway
the SW2 is a lot cheaper now, so i would advise buying that one
or if you're not in a hurry, wait a couple of months a see what's available then

thanks for the advise! The sony watch is to expensive for me tough.
Is the smartQ Z1 a good alternative? As far as I can see it looks similar as the SW2 and is cheaper. less than €70,- including shippingcosts to holland. it is 12.2mm thick which is quite ok as well.

yeah the Z1 is a good alternative, runs android so has all kind of options, they even managed to run Android Wear on it
check the Z1 topics in this subforum
i was going to buy The Z1 as well, but as i have already preordered the HOT Watch as well, i thought it was a bit overkill
this U-watch is a waste of money, that's for sure

[RTOS]Aiwatch C5 Sports Watch(rel. March 2016)

Just tested the Aiwatch c5 sports smart watch.
Looks and feels very nicely build with cnc-ed Aluminium alloy case.
Round face with a 1.22" 240*240(?) res looks good on the screen which has a good dpi. Much better then others I have tested.
Beyond the basic functions
Calc, calendar, phone(+bt), sms(+bt), contacts(+bt)
Bt notifications, bt camera, record, search phone, Siri,
Timer(split), alarm(multi), picture viewer, filebrowser(*)
Flashlight function, airplane mode, short cuts, bt music,
Options,
it has a gyro, baro, temp, alti, heartrate, step and uv sensor.
Magic voices, ringtones..
There has also the option to send files or pictures to other devices
using bluetooth. Receiving is not possible.
So far all seem to work fine. Shake to wake, to answer, to mute, to swich menu.
Three menu themes and three ways to navigate it(shake, swipe, big nob)
Place for a sim(gsm only) and Bluetooth 4.0 functions.
It comes with a "magnetic charger" cradle but no stand also in alu-alloy which also acts as OTG and comm.
Though this isn’t a android device and has no external memory. Only 1 Mb user space is availible. This might be a minus if you want to use it beyond it's intended use...
It does have a picture viewer. Pictures at 240p are about 25kb and still look good on the watch's screen. So you can put a lot of those baby pictures on it..
Clockfaces are part of the firmware. They are nicely made but may not be your tast. So, the ability to install upto 4 extra faces has been added to make the total 10.
I installed three other faces through bt notifier without a problem. I'm not sure really how that works. But over usb is and other option(Dont install faces over usb!). Animated clockfaces do also work.( vxp clockfaces can be installed using an xml file over BT, same goes for vxp apps but these need special additions to be installed over BT
For a feature watch this one has a lot op options. Installing applications is one of them. (ea. yahoo weather etc...)
It supports mtk .vxp or mre apps. Tested a text reader and opera. The later usses to much ram to work on the watch. But suffice to say that with only 1mb of space you can't install a lot. let alone browsing the internet which this watch isn't intended for.
A new optimised firware could free up some space and offer maybe proprietary apps.
Unlike the U11 this watch uses its gyroscope correctly. Works everytime to wake the watch. But obviously at times when the watch is at deep sleep it takes a second more to wake. To save extra battery, disabled the wake function.
Code:
Tip;
at night shut the watch down. The alarm will still work
All in all
This is an solid feature sports watch that doesnt look geeky.
Tech menu theme is clear and simple. Navigating menu's is fast.
The big knob is very handy to switch faces easy and has a Shortcut function
by pressing it. Very handy. Really makes it feel like a normal watch though the firmware may be tweaked to make it work in other apps aswell.
I would be nice to use the knob for like setting the alarm, split timer etc..
Battery life
Is poor as with most if not all smart watches. Using the watch just for the the clock function will extend battery time greatly. Several days at least. You can disable just about everything to squeeze that last second of battery time but thats not why you buy this, right? But hey, look at the price.
At release I paid 50€ for it and they are already going for 70€ and up, which isnt a great lot but I do find it way to high for a China feature watch. Its to close to Android watch prices even if it has gsm support, its still just a sports feature watch.
The design is great and consistent throughout the body. Firmware has been tweaked but the consistency has been lost there. There is room for improvement though its not a deal breaker at all. Its a sports watch but not water proof nor resistant. Though I have been using this watch for months whilst running an sweating like an ox, yet the watch still works fine. But I dont suggest taking in out into the rain. I suspect it will die if you do.
Really hope they will upp the hardware in future builds and stay in the price range. All day battery with gsm or bt on is definitly a must.
I think there on the right track design wise. I'm keeping my eyes on this company.
Already ordered a second one. (And also have an U11 with 320p)
Additionally
After eight months off use the watch still offer great value.
One thing tough is that sweat will react with the back of the casing. My watch shows small pits in the alloy.
It's not a big deal but this should not happen.
The touchscreen is still scratch free and the band still in top condition. There is a small stain on the side aluminium which will not go away. Hardly visible though.
A lot more faces are availible now but no firmware update. But thats probably to soon. Still like this watch a lot.
Cons
Personaly I find the cradle a little cumbersome they made a nice unit but would rather prefere an integrated power unit. Its very fiddly and you still need an stand to put it on if you dont want to scrach your watch. Stands are no bankbreakers but taking that and the watch over the weekend is annoying. May just need a minor redesign.
Some functions you just dont use, some of these functions would better be removable to free some space.
The knob is great but firmware integration could be better. Also more short cut options.
Keyboard is not optimised and very, very fidelity.
Just remotely controle music and volume(with knob) without routing the audio to the watch. I know it can because some times it just does that.
Bluetooth recieve option!
Set a picture as clock face option!
Remove the startup sound, additionaly better sound engenering all together to match the feel of the watch.
Better battery!
All in all the firmware is ok but improvement is very obvious.
Still like this watch a lot!

Hi ebsbow, thanks a lot for the infos,
I also have this watch from few days, and I'm happy of it till now!
I would like to know where can I find info to install vxp apps,
I've tryed to copy it in MRE dir of the watch and then? You we talking about vxp can be installed using an xml file over BT,
can you give some more infos or link?
Thanks a lot in advance
Mauro

Installing is actually very simple it seems.
Just use the filemanager on the watch and brows
to the place where you put the vxp and select it.
Needs to be said that the watch doesn't have
much ram so only a few small apps will install.
I just wanted to install a new clockface and thats
not a problem. Finding some is a problem
About the xml. That needs to be in the appmanager
folder on your phone. I'll upload an example.
Though, the correct info to swapp eludes me.

Thanks a lot ebsbow!!!
I installed Opera even if it doesn't works for insufficent memory like you. Also gmaps and parkour don't work. I'll try more apps
Bye
Mauro

Your welcome ��
I also have animated white and black digital clock if your interrested.
Installation:
Just put the extracted vxp with the xml in the appmanager folder.
Then install it through the bt notifier app. It should be in the list of apps in the bt app.
Warning: don't install directly on your phone using usb! Use the bt app.
Bt app installs it to the system. Installing it to the small userspace will freak the device out.

few days of use
Hi I got this watch for about 3 days. I like it very much, not a bomb, but enough for me.
I use it bluetooth with an Iphone 6s (no sim card inserted in the watch slot). I got all me sms and notifications from the phone to the watch. Also able to sync phone book from phone. No email sync. On the Iphone apps fundo (update yesterday) I'm now able to sync data of the watch to the Iphone fundo apps (health data). With Siri, I'm able to send sms and email from the watch ) to the phone. I also ask Siri for weather... she answer on the watch speaker. Bt music work well too. I can listen music of the phone with the watch speaker.
The only .vxp apps working that I've found is this one : Asteroids Multi-Screen.vxp
I have plug the watch usb on pc computer, as mass storage, I have placed file in MRE folder in the watch. Then, I've unplug watch from pc. Navigate in "file manager" on the watch apps to the MRE folder and click on the .vxp file. The watch ask to install... done.
I was not able to change any clock face, should I have to use an android phone? If you have hint for me.
Also, is there a way to use a nano sim card as a mass storage card (to boost storage for apps) ?
Thanks
Patrick

To install clockfaces you need the instruction from the previous post. You do need and android phone, I guess, to copy the files to the appmanager folder.
Not sure if this is possible using standard iphone. Meaning no jailbroken iphone. Unless you can get to the folder an other way.
I found an doc reader( only works with txt because if space restrains. Doc files are to big) And a small test app that works.
And the weather app offcource.
But honestly, if I wanted more to tweak I would have bought an Android watch. Which I will do later as an addition to my collection ?.
Animated clockfaces work without a problem. But finding
some is amazingly difficult. So fare only found 4. ( wich I will post later)
Sadly, I'm not aware of an sim to sd convertion. More space for fictures and music would have been great. But the battery just isn't up to snuff to enjoy it long.
Edit;
Btw, please share your working vxp's. I'll putt the together in one post later( with name)

Someone knows how can i calibrate barometer?

Hi, fallen in love too for this Smartwatch
Hello!
Few hours ago, I've just bought it;
I love everything, except the watchfaces...where I can got new ones?
And where did you get apps too?
I Thank you very much for you fast and accurate response...
...that I'll be wait for!

That is the question. It's nearly impossible to find any
My guess is you will need to download the sdk from mtk
and build some your self. Or hack the one I posted some
posts back.
Also don't bother to much with apps. There is only 1mb
of userspace.
@alfa587: Don't know. Did you try a reset?

Ok...
But maybe you can share on a post the 4 ClokkFaces found?!

When Aiwatch is pairing with Android iPhone and I get a call, the audio of call start on the smartwatch .
How can I disable this feature and keep only pairing for messagges ?

Just go to bluetooth options on the phone.
Select the C5 options,
Deselect phone or audio.
Done.

Same problem for me. I have a 6S+ and cannot get SMS or notifications to work. Is there some sort of magical pairing procedure I'm not following where a proper seance should be spoken?
