Android Wear 2.0 Beta APK won´t start - Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I installed Android Wear 2.0 beta apk from apkmirror, because my Huawei Watch told me on latest 2.0 dev preview, that it setup has to be continoued on smartphone, but my Android Wear 1.5 app told me, it has to update, even on latest update already installed..
So I downloaded the 2.0 beta apk and now this one can´t start, because it tells me:
"This phone has been flashed with an unsupported configuration for companion.
You must re-flash it as either signed/user or unsigned/userdebug."
I´m on latest cm14 build for OnePlus 3, but also found users, that get this error on official Android.
So whats to do, to get it working? Is it, because I´m not in beta-program for Android Wear APK, just use Dev Preview on my Watch?
If so, how can I participate to APK´s beta program?
EDIT: Finally found way to participate beta program, but app doesn´t work even now.. reinstalled already 3 times

I'm having the same issue with CyanogenMod on my HTC one m8 (w/ LG watch urbane 2)... I did the app the 'right' way... Was about to try apkmirror version but now I see u have the same problem with that...

The answer is in this thread here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=68924594&postcount=285
Edit the build.prop
edit -this is the direct link to the post. Now that I can search and copy urls, I think the first link was wrong thread.

In case anyone else sees this as the answer... be careful when doing that edit.... I did on my HTC One m8 (running cm nightlies).... killed my phone and can't get into recovery to try and revert the change.
Edit: Finally fixed my m8... Moral of the story is: Don't blindly edit the build.prop file... That simple change can, at least in certain cases, cause the phone to not boot.

That solution does not work for me (I'm on cm13 klte snapshot).
Does anyone have another suggestion?

Make the change, then reboot. Didn't work for me before rebooting, but worked after.

Well, use the latest(first in list) htc-msm-linux. After the download completes, copy and rename zImage**** to zImage(replace the old zImage) the modules don't need rename, just delete the old modules. I've already posted that in the gingerbread thread, you can read it, take a look at the video, you will like it, I like it
more than FROYO X (I'm talking about the Gingerbread)

There is something you mess up! Mine runs with Launcher Pro
Gingerbread is much better than froyo in general, but as I say there is a lot of work to do (the developers)!

I'll tell you how I'm doing it. I've just downloaded the gingerbread image, I used to boot it
with the pack(haret+startup) of froyo x, and I've updated the kernel, and modules ofcourse, and rootfs optionally! And it works for me.
BTW, try to put the device into 'Airplane Mode' and tell us if it freezes.
I'm really tired now, I'm coming back from work, so bye!

Read that thread and follow the instructions there.
If you cant solve it with those instructions your are much more likely to get an answer from someone with experience with the build or even the creator of the build. Any complaint of a crash or nonstart should come hand in hand with a log.

Please see that Cyanogen Mod is currently in Alpha stage and some modules are not working.
If you want to install it any way for testing purpose follow the link below then you download the ZIP File. After download completes extract the zip to obtain a TAR file. Fire up ODIN and Select the OPS as you and Flash as one package with the TAR image. After phone flashes up and boot. Wipe Data and Cache from the Recovery and reboot. You would be able to use CM7 Alpha5 Fix1.
Please See- You cant install CM7 without flashing and also see that you have a backup of your whole phone. Use titanium backup from market.
CM7 Download link- http://www.multiupload.com/Y3GTH2QN56
If you dont know how to flash please inform i will help you with the links.
If your problem is still not solved. Kindly quote my answer and tell me.

I think it is not available on Samfirmware. I think we have to obtain from ROM Image of XXJPS.

I have one more problem with G3. It's vibration is very soft/gentle.
My old Samsung SGH-E900 had vibration like PlayStation's controller (very strong).
I know that using more battery but I want more power in vibration. Is it possible?
Vibration pattern doesn't help me.

You can t until you disable data2sd. And how do your widgets disappear?? The app or the widget will be in SD-ext partition. Which is not detected by windows.

Quote Wikipedia, "BusyBox provides several stripped-down Unix tools in a single executable. It runs on top of the Linux kernel just as does Gnu/Linux. It is ideally suited to run in embedded devices. It has been self-dubbed "The Swiss Army Knife of Embedded Linux".".
Basically it is a tool which allows you to perform certain functions.

Well Cyanogen Mod is still in alpha stage as the title suggests. And the camera driver is still not functional. It will be fuctional in the final build.

ICS AOKP ROM for the u8800

This is an AOKP ROM for the u8800. It is ported from Huawei Honor B977 4.0.3. I'd like to know if anyone else has tried this and what they think. It's a chinese rom from the anzhi forums (original thread)
I flashed this ROM just now ( thanks fjsferreira for the mirror), this is my feedback:
- Fast, smooth (on par with Aurora).
- Wifi, mobile data, bluetooth, and the like work.
- No gapps, Play Store, camera, browser...(you pretty much have to install everything yourself).
- No strip unicode in the Mms.apk.
- Popup notification support in the Mms.apk.
- Cool AOKP tweaks (naturally...).
- No theme-chooser (meaning you'll have to stick with the mix of Touchwiz 5, ICS and lots of tranparency that is the UI).
- Long pressing the Home key doesn't show the multi-tasking interface and doesn't take you to the Homescreen.
- The SEARCH key is set to turn off the screen (to revert it to its normal function (searching!), check this post).
- I'll add more feedback information as more people try it and report.

Make sure the system folder fits in your system partition. I think you need to chacge the partitions in order to flash this, but I'm not sure. Our phone's default system partition is 210 mb
Has anyone tried it? Or have mirror?
I would love to give a try, but download time shows me 18 hours...
I have tried the previous ver actually..... Partition is a must, otherwise phone wont pass Huawei logo. Its ported from Huawei Honor ...every thing works well but Home key does not work..... But be aware some time it happens that you cant return to stock partition and you wont be able to Flash official 2.3 or Froyo ROM back.

Actually this version is much smaller (109MB) than the previous (180MB), so it may not need re-partitioning. It has a ".UP" suffix so maybe it is an update flashable only and you need the previous installed, but I can't know since I cannot download it. It just goes soooooo slowwww....

I know, right? I left the computer on and went to the beach but when I came back the file only had 86mb out of the 109mb...I'll have to try again tomorrow, since it will probably take some 4 hours to download.

If you guys use something to stabilize the download, like free download manager, speed is always above 800 KB/s (I've just finished my download, took less than 3mins)
http://i.imgur.com/5kkae.jpg
EDIT: anyway, here it is
https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B4ZMZwAV0MEaVUUzMjRDM2JyXzg
(I didn't try this ROM yet, and probably won't, Aurora is completely stable for me right now)
Well, just went ahead and tried the ROM. From my 10 minutes playing with it, everything seems to work, wifi, mobile data, bluetooth and camera (camera isn't included by default, you have to install one).
Also, no market by default, you have to manually edit the zip file and include the market apk in it.
Sadly I had to uninstall it after 10 mins because, and I'm seeing this more and more, the dev completely screwed up the UI... it's simply horrible, it's not default AOKP at all... He made a complete mess with icons from samsung, an horrible background in every app, horrible popups and menus, etc... I didn't like that at all. I didn't even took the time to create screenshots, I'm sorry, because it was burning my eyes...
There are some stuff completely in chinese, in the ROM control area of the settings, but overall, you can choose any language that Android includes. Note, while the theme of the UI isn't AOKP, the ROM itself is, with the usual settings AOKP provides,
Performance wise, I saw no difference than with aurora...

I have looked around multiple times and I can't find a build anywhere that will work, and I do not have the knowledge required to compile my own.

The best i could come up with is this in case you haven't already tried this
I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to ftp servers... how do I install one of these builds to my phone? I downloaded the linux zip file (Tar), extracted it, found boot.img userdata.img and system.img, I flashed them to my phone and I'm just in a boot loop, I'm gonna revert back to 1.2 for now. Thank you I really appreciate it, I've tried like 4 different Firefox OS 1.3 though now and none of them have worked, I hope someone makes one soon. I would myself if I understood how to use the Terminal on Linux.

I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to ftp servers... how do I install one of these builds to my phone? I downloaded the linux zip file (Tar), extracted it, found boot.img userdata.img and system.img, I flashed them to my phone and I'm just in a boot loop, I'm gonna revert back to 1.2 for now.

You have to be on V1.0.0B02 to flash custom builds of FF OS 1.3
And one more question: Did your ZTE Open hangs sometimes like not able to touch anything, unable to unlock screen etc?
Thanks

Thank you! I tried flashing from 1.0.0B02 and it worked, however every single build I've tried of 1.3 (from multiple sources) is unstable... Hmm, I got a reply from ZTE by the way saying that people have to request for an update to their "service provider" (whatever that means). That's such a sucky way of dong things, they should try their best to update until they are unable to in my opinion.
No not really, sometimes it does on the lock screen after pressing the power button but only on 1.0.0B02.

Do a google search for Firefox OS 1.2 ZTE Open and click on the Mozilla Hacks website and flash the ZTE beta file, then you will have the default fastboot back on your phone. Then install the 1.1 ZIP update from ZTE... Then from the orange fastboot menu (ONLY AFTER INSTALLING 1.1) empty the cache and if your phone still hangs then do a drop test

[Root] Phoenix OS x86/x64 v2.1.1 (10 August) Rooted Images

Hey everyone, I recently learned that Phoenix Studio released another version of PhoenixOS and I only made rooted images for the v2.1.0. So, here are the latest images for you guys to use. I am no longer uploading a backup of system.img, but will still mirror the installation packages.
Instructions:
Download the correct correct system.img.7z file provided in the Download section and extract it
Install Phoenix OS.
Go to C:\Phoenix OS (or wherever your Phoenix OS installation is) and replace the system.img file with the one you just downloaded
Boot into Phoenix OS and finish the system initialization wizard.
Install the latest version of SuperSU by going to the Play Store and clicking the Update button.
-(Optional) If you for some reason cannot use the Play Store, you can find SuperSU on the official thread. Download the flashable zip, extract Superuser.apk from the common folder, and install it in Phoenix OS by opening the .apk file with the default file manager that comes with the OS. You don't have to do this step if SuperSU updated successfully in the Play Store.
Update the binary by choosing Normal and your Phoenix OS should now be fully rooted
Optional/Recommended:
Download Google Play Services v11.0.55 APK (Google Drive | APKMirror)
This will fix the "Google Play Services" can't be installed Error code: -501 message.

Thank you! The play store is included and works, but you cannot update the Google Play Services for some unknown reasons... I get an error code 501. None of the Phoenix OS versions work correctly so far, I think some update from Google broke the Google Play Services that was preloaded on Phoenix OS.
there is a way to make dualboot with this os?
thanks

Yes sir, you just install it and the installer script automatically sets up your windows OS as #1 and Phoenix OS as #2 in the grub.cfg boot options.
Hate to pester you, but have you tested to see if Google Plus works after updating Play Services? I'm still dead in the water if I can't get this working...

Is there a way to root my installation of 2.1.1 without having to download and reinstall? I got my Pheonix from the official site.

Not that I know of. So far, replacing the system.img is the way to do it
Hello. Thank you for contributing in Phoenix OS. I'm new to this OS. I have a question. I see every versions have both system image and installation file. If I installed Phoenix OS from official and replace it with your rooted system image. Will it run normal ?

Hi, thanks for your feedback. I hope these uploads are useful for people. So the idea behind these rooted system images is that you install Phoenix OS normally and then replace the system image with a rooted one. I've been using these since v2.0.6 without any problems. In fact rooted images helped me fix problems that were originally there like Google Play Services error code -501 and Google+ not being able to install. It's really hard to mess it up if you follow the instructions and in worst case scenario, you could just simply reinstall. Have a shot and let us know your results.

Yes I found that after inserting the rooted system.img I still had to sideload Google Play Services to make everything work.

Thank you, that's the method I use too. I found a fix to get Google Play Store working on v2.2.0 while rooted and will be making a thread for it shortly :good:
