[ME572c] - root & debloat - MeMO Pad 7 General

Hi all !
As I couldn't find many information and hacks about the Asus ME572c (K007), I thought I might start by sharing my experience with the device.
For those who are having a hard time to find resources, here are the changes that I could carry out without messing all up :
Rooting the device :
It was fast and easy using the "ROOT ZenFone" app I found on an alternative market (could be on the play store, I didn't checked...) rooted and installed SuperSU in a few minutes, then I pushed in my usual root apps (firewall, explorer, busybox, uninstaller, patcher, ...) and started the bloat-shoot party.
Apps removal :
Once rooted, any (good) root removal app will do, pick your favorite and be careful to what you do : I frightened myself a few times doing those things and I still don't have any backup/recovery procedure besides a factory reset...
You may want to check dependencies before you delete an app and maybe check what's the app for : you may loose functionality you wanted to keep but that I didn't care about...
As I don't use google services I got rid of every google apps except google search (mainly for voice recognition) and maps : so keep in mind that if you want to keep google apps on your pad your may not go as far as I did.
I managed to keep a fully working device and to remove so far :
- all google apps (play store, framework, services,... ) except search & maps
- calendar, contact, phone/mobile applications and providers
- all apps containing "asus" in their name except : ASUS_Air_Status (seems to be needed for GPS) and com.asus.lockscreen (I never touch lockscreen apps : I had a bad experince :crying, but as it don't seem to be active at any moment, as it's a few kilobyte and even if I don't use any lockscreen : I won't take the risk. By the way, don't remove/freeze "keyguard" as well (will mess with locking/navbar or something else important for the OS...)
- CMclient/DMclient
- intel/widi named apps (screen casting ? not sure), cwsservicemanager, windows/multitasking (dual apps mode)
I'ts nor a detailed or a complete list but just clues to what you may try...
Most of the apps were first frozen, then deleted when no issues were found following few basic tests, but some apps can still run even when freezed (asus apps do that a lot), so pick a good process viewer to see through that. The result is a device which is quick from "power on" to "available", and has few running process letting plenty of resources available (around 600 Mb of memory used at start-up)
Usual tuning :
Whatever the device we have (HTC, Nexus, ...) we all have the usual set of performance enhancing modification we like to apply, here're mines:
- stop logging (logcat & dmesg)
- kernel/ioscheduler/mem/dalvik tuning (many apps to do that)
- disable error check/reporting (along with many other common build.prop modifications you'll find all over the web)
- good task killer / greenify / services, wakelock & autostart editor : no more resources hogging with no reason from the few apps left on the device...
CCL: I got mine since mid-December and I'm pretty happy with the tuning I've done so far : I obtained more and more perfs till it scores over 41 000 at Antutu ( just like my good ole Nexus 5 :silly: ). I don't have a reference mark with stock apps installed, I'll be interested if someone can submit some scores; I'll submit some screenshots with detailed marks in the next posts.
Besides all the removal I've been doing, everything seems to work fine on the hardware side (GPS, bluetooth, sound, ...), I got rid of some software features like dual apps, social networking, or Asus dsp manager (which woks quite well on this device, I may get it back...) bit I'm very happy with the current config.
I think I'll stop my pump-it-up frenzy there before it explodes, and wait for Asus to release Lollipop or if any ROM (I'd love a PAC-Rom) becomes available for this device.

Hi Gentaz, come on over to our ME572 thread and let's get this killer "7 tablet the support it deserves!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2915779
I've also rooted and removed bloatware. Also disabled the navbar via build.prop because it takes up space in some off the apps I use.
I'm pretty new to android tuning, curious what tweaks you've performed. Care to elaborate?
I'm wondering if the mods want to move the thread I linked above to this subforum for more exposure?

Here are some screenshots :

Hi TujungaGuy,
Thanks, I read that thread you linked while waiting for the Memo to be delivered and it pointed me to this "ZenFone" app : the pad was rooted less than one after I got it, I didn't even care to test Asus apps
I'm not sure to find time to detail (and remember) the modifications I made for a specific environment and usage I have for this pad (telescope control and unix/linux networking). To me it's more like a computer than a "social/communicating/whatever most people see in this device" tablet. I'm currently writing a "quickref" in my wiki : I may publish this later on XDA if it's not too messy and incomplete.
Being myself a sysadmin, I have solid unix/Linux grouds but don't know much about the "android" part of the OS too, and I have to say, not really interested into learning it...
I was merely throwing ideas I had and that worked for me, but I'm willing to help : so I may start by answering questions if any or give directions in particular aera anyone would like to have look at.

The most performance improving task, but the most dangerous and longest to figure out at the same time is a proper app management, eg which app can I move, freeze or delete without having the device not responding or loosing hardware abilities ( GPS, bluetooth, ...).
I can't submit a proper list of "safe to delete apps" but I made screenshots showing the apps I kept and the one I moved from /system to /data.
Starting from the 11.8.3.30 firmware published by Asus (I made the ota update), here is the list of curently installed apps on my ME572C, one may deduce by comparison the (long) list of apks that were deleted.
Frozen apps (I kept just in case...):
System apps :
User apps (without the one I installed), most of them were moved from system to userspace :
Some apps have their french name (sorry), but I didn't find a good app management tool showing the file names : I'll take any suggestion (a resubmit lists with proper names).
Hope this helps !

PS: Corrected wrong screenshot (last one was a duplicate)

ME572c recovery
Today I did it : I changed a setting I shouldn't and my Memo became unusable (boot loop ?); even factory reset didn't do the trick...
So now I can make a How-to for recovery and rooting ;o)
Recovery (stock firmware) :
==> You'll need a MicroSD card on wich you have to put a file with you PC (or another device)
Prepare SD :
- Get update file from Asus (mine was UL-K007-WW-11.8.3.30-user.zip for 8.3.30 version and WW device)
- Copy file to FAT formatted MicroSD and rename it "MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip"
Go to droidboot mode :
- turn the K007 on with "Power" and "Volume UP" keys and keep'em pressed
- release "Power" when the screen turns on
- then release "Vol UP" a few second later when the Asus logo disappears
Flash :
- insert MicroSD into K007 slot
- Select "SD Download" using "Vol DOWN" key then confirm with "Power"
==> It will flash the device with the original Asus firmware and reboot to display the first launch wizard...
Not sent from my K007...

ME572c Root
Now For the rooting part.
==> You'll need a computer with adb or a MicroSD on which you can put files with another device
Download resources :
- download the RootZenFone app from "asuswebstorage" : https://www.asuswebstorage.com/navigate/s/1DC355CA300041BDAC1FBE7C9F749501Y
Install kit :
- using ADB (adb push RootZenFone-1.4.6.8r.apk /sdcard/) or using the MicroSD
- allow installation from unknown sources in android security setting
- install the app (use file browser to find apk file)
Root the device :
- Remove known wifi networks and disable wifi
- launch rooting application and proceed
- it did launch a "demo mode" but don't panic : press OK then quit this demo app then wait 10s then reboot
==> It will go into flash mode (small droid being serviced with a progress bar), then go for a normal start
Check :
- go in application list to find if SuperSU app is available

Thanks for the rooting info. You can just download the APK directly into the tablet's download folder as well. No need for a SD card or ADB. Just an FYI.

did the same....
I did the same today... tried the upload to SD card, I assume you are unzipping the file prior to putting it in? I tried both renaming and not renaming the file. I tried both zipped and unzipped on the disk. I am having no luck. Please help... I have added screen shots, both showing the same error I continue to receive.

If you read the how to it says copy and rename : so no unzip involved here...
Other checks you may peform :
- download : checksum your downloads (if no checksum given download twice and compare md5)
- version localization : there are WW, TW and a third version for the device and so are the firmwares released by Asus ==> did you use the good one for your device ?
- the error message you posted says error is on the footer (end) of the file : how did you copy it ? (I suggest using adb push) or maybe your sd is going bad or dosn'thave enough free space (there should be nothing else on it, it already worked with media files on it me) : try another one or an empty one you formated with your device (blank it using dd command).

didnt work....
Thanks for your help. Im sure I am doing something wrong. From what I am able to tell (unable to start tablet to verify) I should also be installing the WW version. I actually, out of desperation, tried each version with no success. I did format the SD card after each version, also with no success. I would love to try adb but I am a bit of a noob to this and get lost with all the steps on the walk throughs I do find. Do you by chance have a step by step for the morons of us out there (everything from what programs, to what steps, and system requirements.....with screenshots if possible :fingers-crossed?
Thanks again for the help.

Hi mlakia,
There's not much more to say : all details and screenshots that I could pick are in the how-to.
Besides I'm not using windows for the 'not on tablet' part thus screenshots would be useless...
All I can provide is :
- download Asus rom http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/EeePAD/ME572C/UL-K007-WW-11.8.3.30-user.zip as MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip (respect the case) on a empty fat formatted SD :
wget http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/EeePAD/ME572C/UL-K007-WW-11.8.3.30-user.zip
mv UL-K007-WW-11.8.3.30-user.zip MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip
md5sum MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip
289f23ac72bc6d78c9a8814774e83287 MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip
- then with adb :
adb push MOFD_SDUPDATE.zip /storage/MicroSD/
- or some other way to do it using you pc any other device that can write on the sd if you Memo is stuck (check the md5sum of the copied file !)
- launch recovery then flash from SD...
==> unless your download or SD is corrupt, maybe there's a real issue : you may try to call Asus helpdesk or open another thread in Q&A for more help on recovery.

Hi !
Here's a refined, close to minimum, system apps list that are required for the OS and hardware to work properly. Sound apps (maxaudio & icesoundserver) can be removed but at the expense of a poor sound quality.
Keep in mind it's only the system required apps : although i deleted most of the preinstalled apps, I moved many of them as user apps (/data/app/ ) as I guessed they're not system related or don't need to be up all the time : unlike system apps you can greenify user apps.
You may see an non-standard app : rotation manager. I installed it as a system app as I wanted it to be always up, thus I can use the memo in permanent landscape mode preventing an oom kill.
But you have to have an IME (keyboard), the audiowizard app and maybe others to be able to use the pad (you may look very stupid without an IME...) !
As usual : I'm not responsible if your pad becomes a brick or gains world domination as a consequence of your tinkering...

Could not open attachments
Thanks very much for posting your refined lists.
Maybe it was just me, but I could not open any of the attachments in your latest post. When I clicked the attachment, it said something like "Invalid Attachment specified. This can happen for a variety of reasons-- most likely because the thread or post you are trying to view has been moved or deleted. Please return to the forum home and browse for another similiar post."
Could you double check the attachments, please? Thanks again!

I'm not able to view the attached file.

@abhijeet : can you avoid quoting whole posts in this useless manner plz ?
Sorry for bad attachments : I'll try to correct or I will repost...

If I understand correctly, AudioWizard is a required app. Is that correct? I've been working on my own list of apps that are safe to remove (similar to what's linked in my signature - you can preview the one for the ME572C I've been working on here), and ran into an issue: I tried deleting the Sound Recorder app and Titanium Backup locked up. I left it for roughly ten minutes trying to install it before forcing a shutdown. After that I got stuck in a boot loop and had to flash the latest firmware. But I'm not sure if it's a coincidence and the removal of another app is what caused the boot loop, and not the failed removal of Sound Recorder.
By the way, your list is very helpful and I'll be sure to update my own later based on it!

Root typically locks out OTA updates. On the ASUS firmware page for the tablet I see a new Version JP_V11.8.3.31 but I don't see that version for TW or WW yet. Also, just to guess, JP is Japan, TW is Taiwan, and WW is worldwide... is that correct?

INSTALLATION GUIDE
1) START HERE IF YOU JUST BOUGHT THE PHONE:
- Download and install usb drivers for your phone: http://global-download.acer.com/GDFiles/Ap...&SC=EMEA_27
- Flash a recent bin (I suggest the 39 'cause it has an updated baseband); you can download it from here: http://tinyurl.com/34tq4yp; somone else suggests the 09... you can download it from here: http://global-download.acer.com/GDFiles/OS...amp;SC=EMEA_17)
- Afer following the instructions you'll have an up to date bin.
2) START HERE IF YOU'VE GOT AN UPDATED ROM BUT WITHOUT MALEZ RECOVERY
- It's time to install the malez recovery
- If you didn't, install your USB drivers now...: http://global-download.acer.com/GDFiles/Ap...&SC=EMEA_27
- Download the malez recovery 0.5.4: http://www.multiupload.com/402AVV1SI9
- unzip the archive and click install-recevery-windows.bat while your phone is ON
- Your phone will reboot several times during this process
3) START HERE IF YOU'VE GOT AN UPDATED ROM AND THE MALEZ RECOVERY
- Almost done...
- Download ROM LS 2.1 (you'll find the links below)
- Connect your phone to the computer, activate the date-exchange by usb (once you've plugged in your phone a notification will appear, tap it)
- Copy the downloaded file in the main directory of your SD Card (Without extracting it) [Please Note: You've to copy this file in the MAIN DIRECTORY not in a sub-folder]
- Reboot your phone in recovery mode (If you did pass trought 'point 2', you'll find, in the malez recovery's pack, the file "reboot to recovery.bat" doubleclick it with your phone plugged in by usb, if you didn't, well, its better to download it from the point 2 or from this link if you're to lazy to scroll the page up: http://www.multiupload.com/402AVV1SI9 .
- Once you're on recovery's main screen you'll have to move through its menu by Volume UP/Volume Down buttons
- Go to "Flash/Test menu" and press the MENU button (the last touch button of your acer liquid, the one with three stripes)
- Press Menu once more
- Go to SDCARD:LS2.1 and press MENU
- press HOME (bottom left) and wait for the process to end
- Once this installation ends press BACK (the "<" button) to go back to the main menu, then press MENU to reboot your phone.
- If you want to delete added aps (the ones in /data) and to have a clean ROM it's the moment to do a "Wipe Data Factory", obviously the widgets of the removed apps won't work and you'll have to delete them from your home. I suggest to keep them cause they're very useful.
4) START HERE IF YOU ALREADY INSTALLED THE ROM LS
- Congratulations!
- The first boot will last a bit more than the usual, don't worry.
- Once you're phone is on, select your language and follow the setting wizard
- Once the wizard finised go to the apps menu and open LSsettings
- Here you can set the touchscreen sensitivity and many other things
- If you'd like to install the theme pack or an OC kernel (if you don't know what an oc kernel is don't install it, you don't need to); you'll find links below; every pack has got a README file explaining how to install it
- Tip: select HTC_IME keyboard by holding a textbox
- Once you've set the ROM reboot your phone.
- Now The ROM LS is installed and ready to use! Have Fun!
NOTES
- Once you've turned on your phone, tap the taskmanager widget to end every app you dont need
- Don't WIPE your phone after the installation or you'll lose every added app. If you accidently wipe it, simply re-flash this ROM.
- App + Data on SD may causes really problems to the system. Please, choose app on SD only
IF YOU NEED MORE INFORMATION, SIMPLY ASK HERE! WE'LL BE HAPPY TO HELP YOU!
PLEASE, We use tools to count our downloads, Don't upload this release on other mirrors, THANKS.
NO WAREZ, NO MALWARE, NO CRIME....JUST A SUPER ROM!

Don't be sorry for your English, at least you try and we understand you just fine
I am using this ROM and have been since the release and it's as stable as they get. I recommend it my friend!
It does have Camera app.. was that your question?
hi Lain & Suxem this rom is really fast and stable,
there is a way to enable compcache in this rom at boot ?? or tiny swap??
thanks and really appreciate your hard work!!!
for me any overclock kernel broke compcache!!!!!!!!!!!
can someone help me?
I like this ROM...!!!!
thx suxem..
Sorry, double post..
my internet is slow..
the best work i've seen for an android phone !
themes apps overclocking.... everything sounds perfect
the only problem i am having is with launcher pro ! i have the app for the plus version and i cant install it with astro or any other file manager !
any solution for this
you use the unlock launcher pro plus from the preferences
if your trying to use an older version that you downloaded then not much i can do to help with that
i tried and its asking for a paypal account !!!!
yes
you understand that launcher pro plus is something you have paid for??
meaning that if you didnt pay for it you wont be able to unlock it?
that is not a bug and if your trying to get the pro version for free - that is why the app maker changed the way the pro version works and is no longer a seperate apk
so you cant steal pro anymore
pay for it or stop whining - its not a bug
i already paid for the app and i have a backup of the paid apk... thats why i want to use it and not pay for it again ... hope u can understand that
thanks for your work again..... but u have to work on your people skills
- App + Data on SD may causes really problems to the system. Please, choose app on SD only
how cn I use app on sd only?pls tellthanks
thanks man. i contacted the developer and he fix my account issue
still i think this is the best and most complete work for an android phone
yaseramin: open the LS program in the menu. choose APP2SD
Does the LS2.1 support Chinese language???
Hiya... I'm just wondering if this rom will support chinese language overall n is my current rom (Acer_LiquidE_1.100.09_AAP_GEN2) compatible to this? Beside, will it be possible to return to the stock rom afterward?
Much appreciate for your effort on this LS2.1 and looking forward for your advise, thx~

How to back up your APPS + data (not system data) with Titanium Backup​
Go to the market and download and install Titanium Backup
Load up Titanium Backup and allow super user.
Go into Preferences and change Backup Folder name to external_sd/TitaniumBackup (this will save a copy of the files to your external SD card for restoring after flash) then click back and it will reload.
Now go to batch and select backup all user apps. Select the apps you want and hit run batch (top of the screen) once it is finished (you will know as there is a notification in the drop down that it is done) Double check you external sd for the Titanium Backup folder, if it is there then you are good, if not double check the spelling. Make sure it is an underscore between external and sd. ex. external-sd = Wrong..... external_sd = right so it should read external_sd/TitaniumBackup
Ok So you Fully Bricked your Captivate Here is a last ray of hope

Themes and Stuff
Disable Vodoo before flashing themes like blackfroyo with recovery.

VoltageApp settings will stick until reboot, but to get them to stay after rebooting, this is what worked for me; You will need Root Explorer for this one
Setup Voltage App like you want

Open Root Explorer
Navigate to /etc/init.d
Locate file saved for boot settings (S_volt_scheduler)
Rename "S_volt_scheduler" to "S_98_volt_scheduler"
Save
Reboot

Backing Up your NV_data
Thread With more info
The reason its important to back up your NV_data (Non-volitile) is this has your imei, product code, unlock codes and model. This informatioin is not recreated with a JF6 OCD (One click downloader)
Certain Roms write data to your NV_data
(i think it was JPC leak from I9000 that was the first one. it changed everyones product code to I897ZKAKOR)
Axura changes the product code to I959ZKATMB or something like that
The Correct Product code for our Captivate is I897ZKAATT.
If your IMEI says 004999010640000 begin_of_the_skype_highlighting 004999010640000 end_of_the_skype_highlighting begin_of_the_skype_highlighting 004999010640000 begin_of_the_skype_highlighting 004999010640000 end_of_the_skype_highlighting end_of_the_skype_highlighting this is incorrect also and you may find your phone to stop making calls as this is like a debugging or prototype imei
Finally, if your unlock code is FFFFFFFF, you need this repair in order to unlock your code
All of these can be fixed with Helroz's Repair_nv_data.zip Found Here: http://perso.numericable.fr/helroz/P...ir_nv_data.zip
I did not create the software or any of the instructions, THis is credited to Helroz in the vibrant forum (please thank and donate to him) he came up with all of this, Im just sharing knowlage.
this can be found here: Unlocking Tmo Vibrant
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=103
Just read the read me first. then the .Doc Make sure you are at Stock JH7 (I didnt try jf6) and root with busy Box (Super One click by CLShort Fuse worked for me)
Then Step 2,3 and 4. Monitor your phone for SU access attempts, it has several and be patient and read what its asking you to look for,
Now if you havent Backed up your NV_data then now is the time. I Use root explorer and just copy the /efs folder to a safe place (I have a copy on my ext. sd card and a backup hard drive)
You can also Use SGS tools (not SGS tool Box) to do a product code check. This also copies all of the pertenant NV_Data files to a folder on your internal SD card. you can use these also if you want.
Flashing JPP Modem to enable 850
The only guaranteed method for enabling 850 on jpp that is proven to work every time is to:
Flash stock using odin
Flash jg8 modem
Flash rom with jpp modem
Hopping around to other modems and back to jpp after this will kill 850 as well.
For some this is not an issue as they are in areas where 850 is not utilized by AT&T but for others jpp will cause headaches if they try using it without following these steps.​
Themes and Graphics
Disable Vodoo before flashing themes like blackfroyo with recovery. (if Running vodoo)
How to change Boot Animation.
1.Find the animation that you want (most be compatible with captivate)
2.Copy bootanimation.zip (it must be named this) with a file explorer that gets you to system files ex. Root explorer to system/media
3.Reboot

Phoenix Patches
All Patches and Fixes attached below
Phoenix 1.5= Email and phone APK. Copy to system/app , clear data in email app and reboot
Email FC after changing email Fix
Thanks to Newter55 for the find
Download the libcamera.so from here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/11343737/libcamera.so
Use root explorer or whatever method you prefer and make a backup copy of /system/lib/libcamera.so just in case you need to get it back.
Copy the libcamera.so you downloaded from above link over the existing one in /system/lib.
Delete or rename the existing email.apk in /system/app to test that this fix works.
Reboot phone.
Open Barcode Scanner and enjoy the fact that it no longer force closes.
This will allow people to use whatever email.apk they prefer...or if they are like me they can get rid of the apk altogether.​

Hey Adam thanks for all your hard work. This is my wallpaper
this looks so good adam!
A big congrats to you and your team...
Awaiting a full battery for the flashing to begin!
Smaller versions of the Operation Phoenix boot animation. It still looks fine even in the 10fps version IMO.
Tinyier uglier animated GIF rendition:
Small 10fps Version Download
Medium 16fps Version Download
Large 30fps Version Download
BTW, I Can't find the post now, but thanks to whoever originally found this animation.

Sorry mate, wasn't meant as a flame.
Was just trying to say that there really isn't a leagl ground to try and shut down Phoenix, and I believe I speak for everyone when I say we would rather see you be able to develop Phoenix and make it all it can be, without the threat of a gun to your head.
All aside, I am looking forwards to hear what great things come out in the coming weeks.
Also, make sure you take time off and enjoy New Years with your family!
Yes we may be part of your family, but you gotta look after the RL ones too.

Personally, I have the following:
-Auto brightness (but use Screen Filter for night time)
-I initially had this set, but have since set it back to never sleep. Not really noticing big difference, and where I work and live, both are Wi-Fi already set up in my phone. Plus when Wi-Fi is off, I found my phone syncing would then use 3G on AT&T's stupid ass limited rates....
-Bluetooth off when not using it
-GPS turned off when not using it
-Have not touched the sync frequency
I had terrible battery the first few times, one MAJOR thing to do is go into SGS Tools and ensure you Update Stock Apps --> 3D Gallery
That stock gallery is a known battery raper. After doing that, I had 24hrs uptime and had 63% battery left.
Means I can go 2 days with moderate to medium usage (calls, texts, web browsing, games and App Market)
Gotta be happy with that!

+1 on all the steps but I wasnt aware of the gallery issue. If I read it right, this has the one baked in you reference. I have never gotten battery life to that level but following these steps did help me as well. You must have one bada$$ battery! Good post.
Good news/bad news
Good news, we are not getting shut down. Master's case was not strong enough. Bad news, who am I kidding, there isn't any. We are still moving firmwares though to get up with the times.

Troubleshooting
Q: i can not update my watch/its stuck/acting weird
Have you tried to reset the watch? there are 3 ways to do it
Restart watch from app. under update there is a restart button (it says reset but it restarts and keeps all your settings)
Reset from watch (Last menu point, this resets everything)
Hard reset (connect charge cable and press up and down button to reset)
Force OTA update:
Connect your watch to the charger. (watch must be charging)
Press all 3 buttons on the side simultaneously
Release the 2 side buttons, and keep the middle button pressed until you get the upgrade connecting display. (this might take some seconds)
Delete connection from phone
Connect and pair from app and upgrade
If you are on an Android device and it cannot connect, try an ios device, and vice versa
Q: The watch keeps switching back to chinese
More people have experienced that if the language is non english the watch will reset to chinese. Changing the phone OS to english stops the watch from switching to Chinese.

PROJECT OPEN FIRMWARE (please make sure you understand what this is and what it does before you attemtp to flash your watch)
Make a Weloop Tommy an open source sport watch that can be used without a mobile phone. Want to see a heart rate when running, cycling speed and cadence when cycling or number of laps while swimming? Help to make it possible! LINK
This project is divided into six phases:
Phase 1: find out and document watch pinout so it will be possible to communicate with screen, accelerometer and a flash memory from a custom firmware. DONE
Phase 2: write a custom firmware that will print sample text on a screen and expose a BLE service. Firmware will be flashed using SWD connector. DONE
Phase 3: make it possible to upload a custom firmware using OTA. This will save the waterproof case from destruction. DONE
Phase 4: update softdevice to the newest version (S110 8.0.0). Add possibility to switch to other softdevice (S120/S130) DONE
Phase 5: create a "terminal" firmware that allows to control what is displayed on a watch from an android/iOS app. IN PROGRESS
Phase 6: create a "standalone" firmware using S130 softdevice that can connect to external sensors (HRS, CSCS etc) without a phone. TODO

BUGS & Annoyances
Notification not always deleted from phone when deleted on watch
Watch freezes sometimes
Being able to set the night time manually would be great (This can be done with the Goclever fw)
I'm no Dev so I'm not sure if this is of any help. While updating the watch I wanted to ensure my screen stayed on so I was tapping the screen.
If you tap the center of the percentage 6 times a pop up appears for you to select your update file. If you select browse it gives you access to a bunch of folders that appear to be inside the app or maybe the watch itself. I tried it several times and 6 is the magic number to make the option appear or disappear. It doesn't work if the watch isn't upgrading it's firmware.
Hope it can be of some use

Hi , the chronos eco app is not compatible with the Weloop Tommy.
Brand new Tommy, it was paired with my phone but the connection was unstable, so I tried and forced an OTA update, watch is "Updating... 0 pct" but now the phone cannot detect the watch any more
Resetting the watch will restart it in ota update mode again!
Any help appreciated...

Happened to me also, try to delete connection under bluetooth settings on device. now connect to to weloop and pair from Weloop app. keep trying and then go to update. again persistence is key. keep trying to update suddenly it will connect and update.
Whas the watch on latest firmware when you tried the force OTA?
are you on android or ios see if there is an updated App for you phone. see link on OP for beta APK.
let me know if it works.
watch was not on latest firmware, cant' remember which version it had.
I'm on android, also v1.24 does not help as check for updates does not go beyond "Checking version...".

Try to update the Weloop app, latest is 1.27.
kill weloop app
delete bt connection from phone.
Open weloop app
conmect and update. Keep trying it can take a couple of times.
If all fails if possible try with other device and or ios device
update: I used an iphone and after a few retries I got it on v3.18.
back to android, but the pairing and the sync is problematic, to say the least, on my Huawei P7...

I'm no Dev so I'm not sure if this is of any help. While updating the watch I wanted to ensure my screen stayed on so I was tapping the screen.
If you tap the center of the percentage 6 times a pop up appears for you to select your update file. If you select browse it gives you access to a bunch of folders that appear to be inside the app or maybe the watch itself. I tried it several times and 6 is the magic number to make the option appear or disappear. It doesn't work if the watch isn't upgrading it's firmware.
Hope it can be of some use

If it's allowing you to select an update file, surely it is showing you the file system of the phone? Otherwise, you'd have no way to put a firmware update file there to select. My understanding would be this allows you to install a firmware update file stored on your phone, although I can't test this for sure as my Android phone is currently being repaired. There's some discussion about this here and that thread also contains a very small amount of analysis on the firmware file (VERY small amount, basically just analysing the name of the binary file), and another app that is apparently in some way related (link).
For what I can glean from the description of that app (seemingly made by the manufacturer of the SoC [System on a Chip] used in the WeLoop Tommy), it would appear that devices using the SoC (including the Tommy) have three firmwares: "bootloader", "soft device" and "application". The one embedded within the WeLoop app apk has the name "ble_app_ancs.bin"; ble stands for bluetooth low energy and ancs apparently stands for apple notification centre services. That leaves "app" - my guess would be this is the "application firmware". I'm not entirely sure the roles of the "bootloader" and "soft device" firmwares, but my guess is the one or other allows the device to get into "DFU mode" (or "OTA mode" as it seems to be referred to also), meaning in theory it should perhaps be possible to recover from any bricks arising from flashing dodgy application firmwares.
So potentially there is the option of reverse engineering the firmware (easily obtained from here: http://wtf.li/ - mirror of the APKs of the app [each of which contain a version of the firmware], and also one version of the firmware (the .bin file) separately), and creating a custom/modified one, while still being able to recover (because bootloader & soft device should be untouched). However, I have neither the expertise nor the time to look into that.
Without an Android phone with which to run either of the apps right now, I can't poke about too much (I only received my Tommy today), but once I get my phone back I'll maybe try and see if I can find anything else interesting. I'd like to see if I can figure out any way to get access to the watch faces, and see if they can be reverse engineered in any way, for example.
EDIT: Here is the output of strings run on the firmware binary from the latest version of the app on http://wtf.li : http://pastebin.com/X7TQXTb3 - nothing particularly interesting, a few filenames of the source files and a few other strings seen in the watch interface and stuff.
EDIT: A couple of URLs accessed by the app (seemingly related to updating):
http://au.umeng.com/api/check_app_update
http://www.yfsmart.com/weloopInterface/getFirmware.do
I can't see anything on these sites, my guess would be they need query strings parameters or something (not really sure what, some way of identifying that the app is accessing the site) to actually do anything.
EDIT: Hmm... http://www.yfsmart.com/weloopInterface/firmware_Upload.jsp - this site seems to allow you to upload a firmware. I wonder if it allows anyone to upload a firmware, which would then be downloaded by everyone when they check for updates? Certainly seems rather insecure...There's a bunch of other pages at http://www.yfsmart.com/weloopInterface/ haven't looked through them all yet.
EDIT: From what I can glean from this page ("SoftDevices" section under the "Development Tools and Software" tab), it seems like the "soft device" firmware is essentially a bit like a library, it's a precompiled binary supplied by Nordic (company that makes chip inside Tommy) which provides all the networking functions etc. which the "application" firmware uses. So:
Code:
application = front end UI (basically, the part WeLoop made)
soft device = "library" via which application can access hardware etc.
bootloader = initial part of firmware that loads SD + app firmwares
So the only really interesting part is probably the application firmware, the part that is in the WeLoop app. That's the code that actually "matters", the rest is just low level stuff. For actually changing the interface or whatever, modifying the app firmware would be all that's needed (for example, to increase the font size or the back light duration etc.).

Thank you for the insights and findings its all very promising. :good:
On a sidenote:
I talked to one of my colleagues who is an engineer (i'm not a dev but a Designer), it seems like we in the office are playing around with the exact same SOC from NordicSemiconducter. we tried one of the apps from the google play store and it connects to the weloop(see attached pic). The app was called "nRF Master Control Panel", tried the other apps from NordicSC but no luck.
Hopefully there will be some sort of SDK with the v3.0 release on the 30th...
I got my Android phone back today, and haven't tinkered too much with Tommy just yet, but I can confirm that the file system you are browsing when you tap the percentage 5 times during an update is just the phone file system. It browses from root (i.e. /), rather than /sdcard or whatever, which is the standard, user accessible partition, hence there are some folders etc. you may not recognise, but amongst them will be "sdcard" which will take you to your regular storage (note: this is the case on phones without a micro SD card as well), where you could easily place an update file.

Troubleshooting
Force OTA update:
Connect your watch to the charger.
Press all 3 buttons on the side simultaneously
Release the 2 side buttons, and keep the middle button pressed until you get the upgrade connecting display. (this might take some seconds)
Delete connection from phone
Connect and pair from app and upgrade
If you are on an Android device try an ios device, and vice versa

I tried to use the OTA update to go from 3.17 to 3.18 (on Android) but Tommy stuck on screen "WeLoop ... Udating 0%", my smartphone (HTC M8) with its APP (latest version) dont find the Tommy and it remains bricked, how do I restart it? I tried all combinations, but remains on the screen, help me!

V3.90 Debloater(Lets remove all that carrier bloat !! Root not required..)

Debloater by Gatesjunior
Disclaimer:
I nor XDA are responsible for anything that you choose to do with this program to your device or others. Modifying my code or redistributing it is not allowed without prior approval from me. Yes, that includes Kanging it, I will be able to tell. Neither is trying to use any of my code to create an apk file with my code logic allowed without prior approval from me.
Donations:
"If this application helps you out, please consider a small monetary donation to further improve development of this application. You can Donate by clicking the "Donate to Me" button on your left, underneath my Profile picture.
Background:
So after many times of going back and forth blocking / disabling apps on my devices through the command line and or shell, I decided to write a program to make this all much easier for myself. Well, after I got it all finally running and doing what I wanted, for each particular device I own, I decided that his was a pretty nice program and I wanted to share it with the community. After all, this community is where I started and learned a lot of the things I know today. So why not share with my family of Android enthusiasts.
Requirements:
The program requires that your manufacturer USB drivers are installed for your specific device as well as the following:
• Windows Operating System
• USB Debugging turned on for your device
• Root or KitKat and above running on your device
Some people have had trouble getting their PC to see their device, even with the device manufacturer drivers installed. Watch your device when you plug it in and authorize your computer to access it, the device should display a popup something for you to grant access to the PC. If it does not, go into Settings, Developer Options and look for an option that says something about Revoke USB debugging authorizations and tap it. Click ok. Now, unplug your device and plug it in while watching your device and click on the option to always allow this computer and then grant when the popup window displays.
What does it do?:
• Block / Disable applications on your device
• UnBlock / Enable applications on your device
• Allow UnBlock / Enable all applications at once on your device
• Allows filtering of the displayed packages for quicker decision making
• Allows exporting your blocked / unblocked listing to a file (Right click on Read Device Packages after list is loaded)
• Allows importing your blocked, or someone else's, listing (Right click on Read Device Packages after list is loaded)
• Allows complete removal of application(s) if you have root (It will backup the original folder structure and apk for you, just in case you need to restore the application(s) back to your device.
So, essentially what it does is this. It will disable / block any system and third party application on your device with ease and allow you to enable / unblock the application just as easy. It also reads everything, real-time, directly from your device, so that there are no messy batch files, scripts and txt files, etc. that you have to maintain and keep track of for every device you own. I mean let’s be honest, most of us own more than one device. Phones, tablets, etc. Who wants to maintain all those scripts and files for every device? The other nice thing that this program does is allow you to, at a granular level, control what is blocked/disabled and what is not. There are quite a few scripts and things like this available in the community that give everyone a start on what to disable/block, but who wants to scour through these scripts and decide what they want or don’t want with something someone else put together. The other nice feature of the program is it will display information for you about your device. Such as Model number, Serial number and battery status. As well as whether or not your device is rooted or not.
What audience of device does it support?:
This program supports many devices. It will support any device running KitKat or above, whether rooted or not. That’s right, if your running KitKat or above, your device does not need to be rooted. If you’re running anything other than KitKat or above, your device does need to be rooted. As long as these requirements are met the program will run. The program will also auto-detect whether or not your device is supported. So if you are not sure, plug it in and let the program tell you. If your device is not supported, it will put up a message saying as much and close the program.
Program Functionality:
The first thing you need to make sure of is that USB debugging is turned on for your device. The video at the end of this OP is a must to watch. It will describe this process as well as allowing adb shell permissions.
So when you first connect your device you will need to wait for the program to detect your device and whether or not it is supported. Once this is established, usually within a couple of seconds, it will display a warning message to you reminding you to be careful with what you disable and block. Yes, it will allow you, if your device is supported, to disable/block even system dependent applications. This message will also include, if your device does not support block mode, a message indicating that block mode is not supported and that it will disable the applications. Here is a sample screenshot of this.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Once the program has initialized, and the warning message has been presented, it will put you into the main program screen itself which will look like the following.
From here the first thing you need to do is click the Read Device Packages button on the upper left. This will initiate the process to start reading all of the applications on your device and then list them in a list in the window. It will also indicate to you what it detects as applications that are already disabled/blocked on your device by putting a checkmark in the box next to the application. It will look similar to this.
As you can see it will tell you in the upper right how many applications it detects as blocked and not blocked. You will notice that on the bottom left it has an indicator that is labeled Synced. As you make changes to the device application listing this will turn red. In other words, it will indicate whether you have made changes to the device application listing since the last sync. Also, in the upper right there is a counter labeled Changed. This indicates the number of changes you have made to the device application listing since last sync.
Once you have made any changes to the device application listing an Apply button will show up in the upper left replacing the existing Read Device Packages button, it will look like the following.
Once you click the Apply button the existing changes you made to the device application listing will be applied to your device. Keep in mind that you can disable/block and enable/unblock applications all at the same timeand then apply those changes to your device. After you have applied the changes to your device a message will be displayed stating the status of your changes as seen below.
Once the changes are applied to your device you now just click the Read Device Packages button again to reload the information from your device and you will now notice that the application(s) you just made changes to will indicate as much in the refreshed listing. As seen below.
You will notice that the particular application I asked it to disable/block has now a check mark next to it indicating that the device itself has disabled/blocked this application.
So now on to filtering. Lets say you want to limit the listing to specific items you are searching for within the package name. Like packages that contain "vzw" for Verizon. You will see below by clicking the filter checkbox and then typing in what I want to filter on, it will limit the list to your specific filter criteria immediately.
And here is the results of our filter below.
From here I can make changes to the listing, by checking the box next to the packages or I can simply uncheck the filter checkbox and return back to the full listing unfiltered.
O.k., so far so good. Now let’s say that you want to enable/unblock all the applications on your device. Maybe you’re selling it or maybe you have an issue with it and you want your carrier to take a look at it. By clicking the Unblock All Packages button and then click Apply this will enable/unblock all applications on your device. As if it is back to factory with no changes made.
Remove mode turned on. For all you root users, this will completely remove the application(s) in the exact same manner and will keep a backup for you in the install folder under Backup of the original apk files. They will also be kept in the original file structure they came from on the device so that it will make it easy for you if you have to push one back to your device. Here is an example of the remove mode turned on and the warning you will receive when it is active for the device that is rooted.
Also, after you have removed the application(s) you want, if you Reload Device Packages again, you will notice them in the list and checked. This is in fact accurate, it sees them as removed / uninstalled. To not have them show up in the list any longer, just reboot your phone and run the program again and you will see that they no longer show up in the listing.
Sharing your blocked list or re-import it to your device:
So there are times when you get a replacement device and do not want to have to go through all the pain remembering what you had blocked. Well to the rescue comes the export/import functionality of the application. This will allow you to export and import your blocked list. You also might want to share it with someone. So this is how it works:
Once you launched the program and have clicked the Read Device Packages and your list is up, you can right click on the Read Device Packages button and export the blocked packages to a file and share it. Then the person receiving it just does the same process, but when they right click on the Read Device Packages, they just choose import blocked packages and then click the Apply button. Done.. You of course can do this yourself to your device. This can come in very handy if you have to Wipe Data, because you blocked something you should not have and your device is experiencing issues.
Well community people that is it. I hope you enjoy the program as much as I do and look forward to your feedback. Gatesjunior signing out…

Version Information
Status: Stable
Current Stable Version: 3.85
Stable Release Date: 2015-02-07
Created 2015-02-07
Last Updated 2018-01-12
Change Log:
01/09/2015: Initial Release
01/10/2015: Updated the handling of application filtering determining what is disabled / blocked
01/11/2015: Updated application (v2.1) to hopefully help address the local Administrator issues
01/12/2015: Major update v2.8 (Fixes all the users not being able to see packages - Xposed Framework fix)
1/13/2015: (v2.9) Fixed an issue with an Out of Bounds Exception in certain cases.
1/15/2015: (v2.10) Complete rewrite of the filter engine, all interactive and immediate now. Also some cleanup.
1/16/2015: (v3.0) Root mode added with ability to completely remove application(s), with backup feature.
1/17/2015: (V3.1) Added new intro screen as well as import blocked list functionality.
1/18/2015: (V3.2) Added some hover helper text. If you hover over a major item it will display helper text.
1/19/2015: (V3.3) Fixed some more Xposed framework issues that would impact rooted users and removing packages as well as fixed some import logic to make it more reliable and optimized.
1/23/2015: (V3.4) Major update and bug fixes as follows:
•Interactive search now also supports searching through the package name(s) as well as the apk file(s)
•Bugs related to duplicate entries showing up when you Read Device Packages multiple times with filter on and off are fixed. This could have caused issues with some users saying it will not remove something.
•Blocking mode fully supported on 4.4.x, found a major bug that was preventing this with rooted devices
•APK file backups now include Odex files if they exist with the APK
•Remove option now completely removes both apk and odex, so yes, previous builds would have left the odex files behind. They will not hurt anything, but take up space. I will release a quick fix for the cleanup of those soon, if you cannot do it yourself.
•Buttons appearing where they should not at times with filter is fixed
•If you have disabled something on the phone itself or in a script, and are rooted, the program will not care any longer and will unblock them anyway.
(1/31/2015: (V3.5) Major logic update. I think I finally put a nail in the coffin with the Xposed Framework issues and removing applications. Also added the functionality where once you import a blocked list all the items will turn red for the changes it has made.
(2/6/2015): V3.6 Quite a few additional options. Including the following:
Ability to only show blocked packages, unblocked packages and all packages. (Just right click on either Read Device Packages button or Apply button after initial package listing is displayed.)
Ability to right click now on not only the Read Device Packages button, but also the Apply button.
Ability to import unblocked listing (Yes, changes will be made red to identify what would be unblocked before Applying)
Ability to sort by either APK Filename or Package Name and be able to sort in either Ascending order or Descending order in each area.
Complete removal of all associated data and folders that pertains to a package if the Remove option is selected (Root Mode only)
(2/7/2015): V3.7 Added a checkbox identifier on Display mode to let users know which Display Mode they are in currently.
------ (Fix was placed into this build later that fixes the UnBlock All Packages button bug..)
(3/28/2015): V3.8 Added Lollipop support for rooted / non-rooted users. It will now support hiding the packages, if you are rooted it will disable them instead. Also, you will notice if you right click on the Read Device Packages after it loads there is also a Backup / Restore menu option. Do not use those yet, I am still working on them.
(4/4/2015): V3.85 Fixed issue with base.apk flags being read incorrectly from device. Logic issue.
(4/12/2015): Updated a logic issue in the detection of the device and it's abilities. Same release number, v3.85
(5/24/2015): Fixed an issue during import of a blocked list that would flag all "base.apk" files..
(1/7/2018): Added newer Android Debug Bridge Files..
Hold
For me..
Looking Good video coming soon
I can't wait to give this a run.
Well be getting a note edge soon for testing, and looking forward to giving this a shot.
OP updated now with Video..
Great application but not working on my Droid Razr M (XT907) with latest OTA firmware on it.
Pressing "Read Device Packages" and nothing comes up.
Just tried it on my AT&T Note 4. It seemed to work, great job and thanks for building this app.

Look back a post and try that one.. Also, send me a screen shot.. Make sure USB debugging is on and in the correct mode as well.
This version works, thanks!
Will be great if this soft give option to disable modem fast dormancy service without root access.
Anyway, thanks.
My AV detects Malware.
Using licensed ESET - no malware detected.
Just disabled FastDormancy.apk (com.motorola.fastdormancy) - how to check if its disabled? In Running programs still see this service is running.

It doesn't like the behavior of the program LOL
I cant get it to download from the webpage. I tried the one in the drive folder and it does not see my phone. Verizon Note 4. Looks awesome, cant wait to get it working!
Got it. I guess the server is overloaded!
Great job on this project addition. I'll be adding your link to my XDA signature this afternoon. Like you and many others, I too believe that until root is achieved on our devices (for those unable to at this time) that having this capability to do with our devices is the next best thing; hands down!
Again, great job to you and to the others like RootJunky and Misterxtc for making this possible for the community here at XDA.
Dear gatesjunior,
I wonder how you'r software disable/enable apk's?
For example: on my device (xt907) I'm not able to complete disable fast dormancy service (see screenshot) only "Force stop" it for a while.
Wonder which method you are using to disable it complete (are you disable it or just force stop it?)

HARDWARE MODs
DISCLAIMER
AS ALWAYS DO ON YOUR OWN RISK. HARDWARE MOD can potentially damage or burn your device
don´t come to cry if your phone xploded,nuclear blasted or melted​
Use 2 sim + 1 Micro SD card at the same time​
Is not that hard and will be easy for less experienced hobbyists
So here we go : (pictures are bellow)
--Micro-SIM heated above a under cup of HOT coffee or HOT tea or HARIRA for a few seconds until the plastic was soft.
--gently bent down the soft plastic then and slide the gold-plated part(chip with contact plate). This part bend in any case! Now you have a MICRONANO-SIM (still smaller than Nano-SIM).
--Super Glue MICRONANO SIM on the SD card.the sim card will be a little over the edge of the SD card, as the drawer of the phones it has a recess. (SIM is 90 degrees rotated to the SD card inserted) Had me the exact position of the SIM previously penciled in pencil on the SD card. Recommendation: During the gluing, cover the terminals of the SD card with tape to prevent superglue boils.
--DONE

Screenshot please
Root genius does not work at all for rooting the global stable rom
Quick query - I just got the phone, and I have the global 7.1.7.0 version. So if I want to switch to the developer ROM, I just have to download the updater file, choose the package from the updater section in settings and just flash it? No need for root or bootloader unlocking?

I can't get te screenshot because I remove it.
But it's logic, the Xposed files that you uploaded are for Redmi Note 3 Hennesy (MTK) not Kenzo (SD) because MTK uses MIUI 7 based on 5.0.1 and SD uses MIUI 7 based on android 5.1.0.
SDK21 is for Android 5.0.1 and SDK22 is for Android 5.1.0 You known what I mean?
---------- Post added at 05:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:07 PM ----------
I downloaded it from here and it works (look at "*MIUI 6/7 BASED ON Android 5.1.X only" section, 64-bit processor)
http://en.miui.com/thread-78894-1-1.html
The unlocking method with the Dev ROM doesn't work for me It still says that "Your device isn't supported by Mi Unlock"

thanks for the heads up i mixed the files. OP updated
Hi @Perfectdevil
Firstly, thank you very much for creating this thread for the Redmi Note 3 PRO.
Second, please check the information in your OP. The China DEV ROM 6.3.17 does indeed have ROOT - you just need to enable it from the Security/Permissions App. This will download and install an update providing native root access. It's not quite as useful as SuperSU but it does work.
Please check your instructions for loading TWRP because this method (which was originally posted by @feds64 on Mi Forums) does not result in a permanent TWRP installation. (TWRP disappears after reboot). This is all explained in thread on MI forums, and the only way to get it to work is to flash a cracked boot.img.
Without a lasting TWRP (or with stock recovery only) things like Flashify just won't work. So we can't use Flashify to flash Xposed without TWRP. And if you have TWRP, then Flashify is not necessary.
Anyway, look forward to more info here.

Flashfire requires SuperSU (doesn't seem to work with native root).
And TWRP is required to install SuperSU
