Make Bluetooth-watch work on WM? - XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps

Hello all you talanted peaople out there...
I have this neat little thing http://i.i.com.com/cnwk.1d/sc/32148583-2-440-overview-1.gif I Bought it for my Sony Ericsson P990i and it worked fine. Now i've upgraded to a Xperia and the combination X1+watch doesn't work since the X1 don't have symbian. I want the "Caller-id"-function to work sooo badly, so....
Im asking all you people out there, is there anyway I can get this to work?
Thanks!

It looks like a clone of SE watches:

Dash + Neo = Heaven?

Hey all,
I don't know if this has really been brought up before, but I REALLY want to have the neo interface on my dash. I think it's a perfect combo! Not sure if anyone is playing around with this out there in the world at large, but I thought a reminder couldn't hurt. Anyone? Thoughts? Comments?
ps- thanks to all of you for your work, it's made my phone freakin' SWEET!

[Q] No love for Neo?

Why is there no separate forum for the Xperia Neo?
The news about SE unlocking the Xperia bootloader is great, and I'm eagerly awaiting the launch of the Xperia Neo here. However, I'm surprised at the absence of a forum for the Neo.
Is there any reason for that? And how easy would it be to port a custom ROM, originally written for the Arc, to the Neo? (Seeing that the Arc would be a much more popular device with people).

I think it'd be better if we got a forum for the Arc and Neo together. The only hardware difference is the display (which shouldn't matter for development etc) and the front-facing camera anyway...
Yeah I'd like a forum for Neo as well... Though, software wise the Arc and Neo are pretty much the same, but I gotta say I like the Neo more because of its smaller size and it fits better in the palm of your hand.
Wouldn't trade my Neo for an Arc... =)
I might be wrong here guys and girl's but hasn't the Neo been pushed back till closer to June?
As with the whole having to source an entire new manufacturing facility things are running tight.

Yep, June now.
Even SE don't have any Neos to hand, let alone enough to start selling them.
thats so sad...
i really wanted a neo, but now im thinking of desire s maybe.. tho the camera sucks on it.. and the bootloader is locked, so far.
dunno what to do
please i beg u guys if u could make a seperate forum for sony ericsson xperia neo
Include me in too. Still trying to find a generic rom for my neo. Bought it in China and is full of crapware and no google apps

Can you use the Arc ROM on the Neo without having problems?
The original one not.
It has to be ported to the Neo.

Haven't really tried it but the Sony sales guy said it should work on all androids with bluetooth by simply installing the software.

I had one as acessory to my galaxy tab... Every thing worked as expected... For a while.. What happens is that android droppes the connection in sleep.. So you havto reconnect the lv all the time. This makes it useless... It died after three months... Just would not wake up any more... And i could not find the receipt, so no replacement....
However i dont know if they fixed the reconnect issue... This was six months ago...

Hi,
I have one from amazon.de for about €25. I have played with it for 2 or 3 weeks but then I have bored. Disconnection issue is very annoying. You can use a program for it (for $0.99) and it can fix a lot of disconnection issues but not totally. I wanted to be noticed for calls, messages with it but it haven't worked as I expect...
There are 2 or more topics here about it, you can search but it is a little disappointment for me...
Hope this helps.
Bought one a couple of months ago, played with it 20 minutes then putted it back in its box.
After reading your post, I gave another try and...it works like a charm with the soft available on the Market. Mp3 player (stock samsung) control is ok, sms, incoming calls... I do not use FB or Twitter, so don't know if it's ok with this.
I do not have issue with connection (maybe because I played just 20 minutes again)
@+
guys any conformation whether it works with the note?
It works on my Note (running Criskelo's LPY), except for any external plug-ins. Thats seems to be an ICS problem of the SE software for Android.
You also 'need' LiveView Manager ($$) to keep it up-to-date after your Note disconnects to save energy. Remark: it polls, so it's not really 'live'.
And you're right, it's on sale and a nice gadget.
Sony has a firmware update for the little thing when you install their Update Service Software and you put it in dowload mode.
So anybody else tried this on the note and updated the software sothat it does not disconnect looks good and would be handy for my work if it worked the way they say and amazon has it for £20 if its the same thing also notice that sony has a liveview 2 coming soon dropped the Ericsson
I have the orginal smart watch and its works fine with ICS LPY (non rooted) on my note and the watch is fully up to date.
It does drop connection now and again if you dont use it for a while. Its still no perfect but it works ok for me.

So I also got this watch, but there is one thing that really annoys me, the watch never reconnects by him self, the phone always asks to confirm the bluetooh passkey, can I overtake this issues ?
Thanks

The best smart watch for the One X

I was initially intending to purchase Sony's Smartwatch, but am concerned by it's compatibility with the One X - does anyone here own both products?
Upon further research and am now thinking this may be a better alternative: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/597507018/pebble-e-paper-watch-for-iphone-and-android/
What do you think?
I'm a backer.
Think that thing is going to be amazing...

Only thing putting me off is that it won't be out for another 6 months and I'm very impatient
cool, hopefully out for my birthday in Oct, looks awesome
Personally, if I was going to get a "watch" for my phone, I would go for this:

I want this too, but there's no guarantee on the release date. Last time this company did a kickstarter it took them almost a year to produce and ship the device. More info on the on the phonedog website.
looks really cool

Tempted to get one of these
Let's wait
This one is VERY expensive!!!
I think I'm going to wait for the Pebble smartwatch as an ultimatum, and if something worthy comes out in the meantime, I'll get it.
The sony smartwatch DOES work just fine with the HTC One X, but it does not support email notification for HTC's email app as each vendor makes their own email app. I am sure at some point someone will come up with an HTC compatible notifier as it has an open API. Someone has written one for Gmail.

i use a motoactvhttps://motoactv.com/ this the best option if your the sporty type its the only one that has gps and it link up to hart rate,speed and step sensors as well as your phone. it also has 8 or 16 gig for music.
You guys havent come across this one yet ...
HAVE YOU

Hev you read the OP?
I know every technology needs it's first users... But isn't this a little soon for that type of things ?
My points are :
- My new One X with a quadcore, a camera,etc... will be thinner than my watch
- Having to reload it every night or so will be a pain
- It's ridiculously expensive
- What will it bring ? If you see you have a mail or a SMS, you'll check it on the large beautiful screen of your phone
(BUT, if they were less expesive, I'd definitively buy one of thoose )
Yep I ordered the Pebble, I know people with the Sony Smartwatch and the imWatch, which are ust too big and need frequent charging. The Pebble is most importantly a watch with other functions secondary.
I just bought the Sony ericsson LiveView watch.
What a crap! Don't buy.. Loosing connection intermitently..
Perhaps im not using SE phone, that's why..

LiveView's the old version? Do you mean the smart watch?
There are no intermittent connection issues with the Smartwatch. The original Live View watch DID have lots of connection problems even with Sony Ericsson phones!
just put an order in for the sony smart watch
stay away from Sony Liveview. Tons of problems...

[Q] New phone to buy?

So I've got the chance to sell my Play and to buy a new phone, is it worth?
I can only buy phones up to 300€, I'm thinking about an Arc S but then going from outdated to outdated isn't that good plus I can't use touchscreen gaming controls... There's also Nexus S has an option but I think the Arc S camera and design is the most appealing thing for me. What do you think?
Galaxy Nexus?
Edit: Look Here: http://www.grandemarca.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=152_153&product_id=28029
Already ordered from that website, you can trust it.

That's the one I'd like most but it costs way more and I'm really on low budget
Edit: that isn't too expensive, can I really trust it? You're keeping your Play right? We need your awesome developments in here!

Yeah I'll never sell my play, I ordered a Akai turntable from there, arrived home 2 days after!
If the Xplay hadn't existed, or I had enough moneyto have two phones, I'd buy a Galaxy Nexus, especially because it's the lastest official phone from Google and it's the first one to get Jelly Bean, the best mobile os ever.
If you are really poor, just consider buying a Huawei one, I've heard they are cheap.

I'm not "really poor" and I'm happy with XPlay but I wanted a phone with more updated software and specs and since I bought Play this year it's hard for me to buy another phone.
