Hi, i know about Xu...
...but...has anyone of you run it on a device?
I don't know much about...and i am screamed to brick my phone...
Some experience?
Nobody knows something?
Anyone know if android wear will be able to support this? I know heart monitors exist where they can gauge you're rate after you exercise then you run the tool and it tells you. But what about constant, dynamic, readings? Anyone know if this is at all possible?
Hello Guys
I am working on a small onboardcomputer for my motorcycle. It shall display some information about the engine and motorcycle in general.
First I planned on developping custom hardware with custom written firmware. The hardware base would have been an ATmega32 with a normal BLE SoC (Blue Nano, for whoever it knows)
However, today a friend brought the idea up if I wouldn't want to realize it on top of android wear, as an app for it.
Of course, this would have several advantages:
1) Other android wear apps would be available too, for example routing, or the remote control over music etc.
2) My "Board Computer" would simply be an app, what is easier to maintain than custom built firmware (think about flashing etc).
3) Solid Base
However, I coulnd't find any informations about running android wear on other hardware than you buy it with.
For example I looked if I can find a tutorial about how to run android wear on a Odroid C1 (which can run the normal Android) but coulnd't find any answers.
Why is that?

It doesn't seem like wear is much more efficient than android. Also, as much as you can do without your phone, there is still a need to pair it with your phone....
What kind of bike do you have? Does it have any sort of OBD equivalent?
Hey
Sorry, it took me a long time to reply.
Well, there doesn't seem to be a way to install Android wear on custom hardware anyway, so the plan is dead (I don't want it to be a hack, there should be a official, reliable way to obtain the software).
Yes, the bike has an ODB-like BUS (it isn't "real" ODB, but some sort of it. I can read some parameters out of it, but normal ODB Libraries aren't compatible with it).
So, what I'd like to to with my boardcomputer is the following (less important things in brackets).
The computer should be paired with the phone over bluetooth, so the smartphone can stay in the pocket
Control the music player of the smartphone
Show a map with the actual position
(Show navigation data, so with routing and everything)
The idea to use android wear was because it supports some of this without big hacks.
And I don't want to reinvent the wheel

Why not just use another phone? Maybe even a custom mount for your current phone.
I am pretty sure you can control an android device with another android device. You can defiantly pull internet from one android to another via wifi hotspot. You could have all your music on it as well. You can find a cheap waterproof phone and custom mount it with a little fiberglass. This mount would even be removable. Anyway PM me if you want to talk about this further. I can help find all the apps you need.
Hello,
Does anyone know if any development or way to get a different ROM working on the Olio smartwatch? These watches are getting close to obsolete due to their cloud server shutting down.
Thanks
Has no one has replied? I have been wondering the same thing. I can no longer get any of the watches to work, including my initial one which I unpaired so I could pair a second, an unknowingly bad idea.
Did the same mistake of unpairing
Can someone tell us how to root Olio Smartwatch?
I also have a totally unusable Olio Smartwatch. Sure would love to get it running!
Hi All,
I'm looking for your advice guys.
I need full android smartwatch. What I need it for is my CGM continues glucose monitoring system. I went trough tones of crappy sites advertising this or other brand, but to be honest all of them are no good for me.
My requirements:
Bluetooth connectivity for CGM, battery life and waterproof so I could go for a swim.
I don't care if:
It's samsung , lg or any other brand
if it's stylish or not
square or round
Does it have Heart monitor or not
Does it have NFC or no NFC
nor any camera
I don't need any workout apps, I can do my workout without it just fine, I don't need any notifications or any other useless futures which I will not have a time or will to look at anyway.
What I'm looking for is pure functionality.
Have anyone of you come across such a device?
Thanks in advance
