Firmware

Instructions + Wear 1.4 firmware
Instructions for firmware from under Linux operating systems.
Attention!!! All updates are distributed in the air and downloaded via a smartphone, as on any Android device, if after the update there are glitches, I recommend to reset the settings. Firmware via PC is needed if you have a badly buggy device and the reset does not help. Everything that you do, you do at your own peril and risk.

FAQ on the device (filled)

Why did the update come to everyone, but not to me?
- The update comes gradually to all users, if a lot of time has passed since the update was released, but you don’t have one yet, follow the general recommendations: reset the clock, delete the clock on the smartphone in the Bluetooth devices and reset the wear. As a rule, after re-synchronization, the clock is updated.
The built-in speaker is announced, but the clock is silent, why?
- Built-in speaker (by the way of very decent quality) is used on firmware since Wear 1.4.
Sometimes communication with devices is lost (no device sees a clock), what should I do?
- Alas, such a problem is observed, firmware 1.4, helps reset the clock settings - disconnect the item from the phone. Most likely the problem is soft, should be fixed with the update.
How to make OK GOOGLE disappear from the screen?
- Say a couple of times: ok google.
I bought a watch in China, there is only Chinese, what to do?
- In order for the Russian language to appear, we followThisinstructions.
Want to buy the black version of Huawei Watch? Is the paint peeling off?
- anodized coating is presumably present on the watch, so even if it is used carelessly, scratches appear, the watch will not lose color, which is confirmed by users operating the watch for more than a year.

Well done, I'm also waiting (although I have a friend now in Miami, so I ordered it at his address). When did you order? I just ordered on September 17 and the shipping date from October 15 to November 20 weighs in, how was your waiting situation (did you have preliminary shipment dates)?

I also had it. And with a steel bracelet were in stock. Well, I took that order and ordered it with a bracelet.
By the way, now the opposite is true. With a strap in stock, and with a bracelet for 1-2 months. Can ship faster.

I did not change anything (I originally had a bracelet in a leather strap, I don't like steel straps)

[pavelmb]

I also wanted a leather strap. But then I thought that the bracelet seemed to be 2 in 1. The straps are not expensive. You can buy and deliver at any time.
And so you can change the style of watches for different styles of clothing. Rearrange them not long.
But the main reason ... wait already tired. They already announced in the spring. So I waited all this time))

What is the point of this order? In November there will be an official presentation of Huawei watch in Russia. From Amazon, the clock travels 1.5-2 months. The same goes for the same thing. The difference in price seems to me to be 10-15 bucks. and one more thing ... Nobody thought about Moto 360 (2015) for 46 mm ??? It seems to me that they will look a little better. I want to know the opinion of the public! ;)

They are already coming to me from the USA. There will be 7-10 days.
Moto 360 of the second generation is certainly more interesting than the 1st, but in my opinion, much more boring sabzh.
In addition, they have not removed the strip below. And this immediately - no (for me)

[Andryukhin_NN]

pavelmb,
Moto second generation for me Fail. The strip was not removed, the resolution is low, the screen is not amoled (I like ips on phones myself, but amoled is in my opinion the best option for wearable electronics)

[Fair]

Who wants to order now - there is good information:
1. registerhereand get shipping address in USA
2. order onAmazonby typing the address from item 1 with free shipping
3. when the parcel arrives at the address (item 1), pay for delivery to Russia for $ 10 (as long as it is validthisstock)
say thankspavelmb

I ordered September 2, right after the IFA. On September 17-22, the time period was October 01 - November 22, which saddened me wildly, I chose the longest delivery, but yesterday the deadline changed to October 01 and the ice started moving - the cargo left the sorting center in Cincinnati

[VeteR_OK]

Pts waiting for first impressions. Or at least Russian reviews)

[fibonacci.celeste]

Well friends, here they come. Now I’m trying to set them up, synchronize them, so I’ll have some impressions later.
PS Everything, including the box, looks and feels expensive, rich and weighty

Well friends, here they come.

Take pzhl more pics on hand

[fibonacci.celeste]

When I first turned on, my OnePlus One saw the watch, and then everything .. Android Wear ignores them for now

I also ordered steel with a leather strap on the Amazon (from availability). go)))
+ ordered a separate strap for 18mm with ali ...

can you (when you set it up) take a photo / video - what is the information displayed on the clock when a message / notification arrives on the phone?
And if you read on the phone - from the clock this message is automatically removed?

In the internet there is a lot of video about Wear, everything will be similar on this watch.

The program icon and the notification text (partially) appear on the bottom of the phone. If you brush it away, it will disappear on the phone. In Textra sms-client, you can read the sms on the clock and select in the side menu "mark the message as read." In the inbox mail client on the clock, you can delete the letter.

More photos on hand.

How do you feel - in life the same as in the photo?

[fibonacci.celeste]

VeteR_OK,
I thought it would be harder. For a long time wore the usual, already accustomed to a certain mass. The watches from Huawei look large, but are not felt on the hand
