Need some help android wear for 4.1.2

Hi
would it be possible to use android wear for sony acro s android version 4.1.2?
thanks

I dont have that phone, but first i think you schould install CM11 or higher version of android. So after you can try. But your phone have Bluetooth 3.0 and Android wear have 4.0 or higher. First search on google if Bluetooth 3.0 is ok for Android wear.

Alright.
Do you know of any step by step guides? I have never installed a custom ROM or anything like that in the past. I'm a newbie when it comes to doing stuff like that on a phone.
help is highly appreciated.

It won't work with a phone that doesn't have Bluetooth 4.0+LE, sorry...

Chinese smartwatches

Hi guys,
in the last few days I had a look at various type of "chinese smartwatches" mounting Android Lollipop 5.1. I'd like to buy one of them for curiosity and for trying to build some apps.
I have a question about the software: as they mount Android Lollipop and not Android wear, is there the possibility that they will be updated, I think to Android 6.0 or something like that? Or better, is there any Android wear custom ROM to flash on them? Thank you for your replies guys

Update info
The update to Android marshmallow would be possible but I do not think any manufacturer decides to do an update, the smartwatch come out with Android lollipop to recycle code and have greater compatibility with older apps.
In future it may be possible to have a custom rom with android wear but will be a long and not compatible with all Chinese devices, when I have not seen a single port on a smartwatch that runs Android 5.1

Custom ROMs like Lineage OS for Android Wear smartwatches

Recently I have been wondering if it would be possible to have a Lineage-like custom ROM for Android Wear smartwatches. Since it is possible to unlock the bootloader and install custom software on such a smartwatch, why wouldn't it be possible to install a custom-made OS on a device of this kind?
Please excuse me if this question has been answered before.

Came here for the same question, over half a year later...

look for Project open watch

There are a early builds like AsteroidOS and FitWear. I have tested both AsteroidOS is in a very early state of development. check out this page: https://asteroidos.org/. And FitWear supports a few chinese APPs. But this OS isnt't practicable yet for a every day use.

Hey @emcube009 !
I have the same crappy Chinese Android-derived OS on my Hisense TV. Did you find a solution to your problem?

You have to change the region in settings or by doing factory reset, on the setup select your region

Unfortunately no.

I also have a Hisense smart TV LTDN50MU7000UHK with a Chinese OS. A custom ROM with link and installation procedures will be much appreciated

Figured out how to unlock Hisense bootloaders, but not much else. Still need to figure out a way to extract firmware packages. (Android TV)

Allwinner c200s 7012b headunit

Has anyone come across firmware for the 7012b headunit with the allwinner c200s processor? I would like to bring it up to the latest Android version it can support and be able to load actual Android .apk apps on it such as TunerView.
Here is a link to it on Aliexpress
