There is no android inside the smartwatch so you can't root it.

is just a firmware to process the commands from the app on your phone, not Android OS (ROM).
Why do you thought there was android 2.3.6???
the only smartwatch that I know have android OS (ROM) is MotoActv.

maybe you just misunderstood it
The box and manuals doesn't say anything about the firmware inside the watch, just how to update it. The only thing about Android that it is talking about are the SMART EXTRAS apps and the way to sync your watch with your Android phone.
see again the video promotional... Never talks about android on the watch, the market and the apps showed are for smart extras. What actually it does, is to show you what kind of apps you can get notifications on the watch but just that.

if sony would said that the watch came with android :laugh: I think a lot of people would have sued them for misleading advertising but it didn't happen.

This post makes my head hurt. Sorry. If the watch had full blown android it wouldn't require a phone to tell time.

[Q] Root Zenfone 5 / Xposed on Zenfone 5

Hi,
I just bought the Zenfone 5 from Asus (bought in India). The model number is ASUS_T00J.
I need help/directions on rooting. The only reason I am rooting my phone is to be able to run the Xposed modules..So if theres a way to do that without rooting, that would be perfect.
Thanks!

Yes, this root method works. But make sure you have disabled your wifi/data connections before rooting.

The root might fail & the phone will loop in demo mode over n over again.

Help, about a app and root please. Nexus 5

Today I decided to go back to stock. And so I did and the i rooted.
But i inatalled GMusicFS and it says i don't have root, even having SuperSU and other APPs say I have. Can anybody help me with that?

Personally I think it's an issue with the app. It does not appear it's been updated for marshmallow.

Safe rooting tool?

I was wondering if kingroot was safe, because it looks pretty sketchy to me. Also is Amazon Fire 5th Gen SuperTool a safe tool to use when rooting?
I am going to root a "LG L22C Power"
Thanks!

Porting .apk files from One Plus to work on Samsung

I'm not sure how to phrase this, because I tried my best to look up similar questions and I couldn't.
In simple terms, can you guys tell me why an apk from One Plus wouldn't install on my Samsung phone? And is there a work-around to fix this issue?
Thanks.

Some apk requires firmware related features. Some needs to be installed as system file.
It'll help a lot to know what you are porting over.

I'm trying to run the One Plus screen recording app on my Samsung Galaxy S9 (exynos, running a Lineage OS 17.1 custom ROM). I hope that helps.

Those apps are likely system apps and won't work elsewhere unless modified.

That's mostly the purpose of my post. E.g. what modifications would be recommended in this situation.

First, compare the original app of its compatible with the version of Android ln your samsung s9 lineage os. If it's not compatible, then no.
Next check what is the properties granted to the app on oneplus. Grant the same permission. It might even need to be flashed in from custom recovery.
Next, check for required packages that the app is using. Try to port them over as well.
Tbh, why don't you just use a third party app to screen record.

Thanks for the tips. I recognize that it would be easier to download a third party app. I asked this here out of curiosity and for future reference.
