It sounds like Android Wear should be updated "soon" and we "should" have the speaker support all of us Huawei Watch owners have been longing for.
The next version of Android Wear is being tested on the Huawei Watch from the sounds of it. I would bet (hope) the Huawei Watch sees the update first! Here is a link to the article by Android Police:

Anyone have any idea how to become a member of this testing group?

I'm looking into this now. Hopefully someone will upload the build for others to flash.
It would be nice to test the updated build, but I haven't seen any details about how to enroll in their beta program.

Does anyone know if your phone's android system needs to be at version 6 (Marshmallow) in order to use the new features on the watch, once android wear is updated¿

I was just coming over to post the same article. This may make my regret of leaving the Gear S go away!
This is why I bought this watch, for speakerphone support on Wear 1.4 update.
The ZenWatch 2 also has a speaker and should also receive an update. No other Wear watches have a speaker.
I hope that this is not fake.

Yea this is not fake.
The LG Urbane 2 LTE came with this version and had the speaker enabled. The Urbane was supposed to release with it but was recalled due to some "hardware" issues.
I specifically bought the Huawei watch for this specific reason. Watch calls from inside my pool this summer, yes!
I WISH they would include an option for a keyboard. Yes it is not ideal or reasonable for normal use, but there are some times when it would be awesome. Options are always good, even if they are disabled by default. Even a T9 style old school input would be awesome.

I use these two apps:
Mail for Android Wear
And
Messages for Android Wear
They are both replacement apps and are by the same Dev and have tiny keyboards that can be gotten used to!
They also have a web browser that works... well... It works...
I hope this is real. I'd love to have audio notifications on my H Watch.
Just waiting for someone to leak the firmware and confirm its true.
The guy who recieved the update didn't make a system dump before installing the update. This can only be done BEFORE installing. So there is no hope, we will get the update from him. Unless there is another user that copies the update.zip before installing.
On the other hand he won't be the only one to recieve this test build.

This device has an unlocked bootloader and a redily available copy of twrp.
ANY ONE who got that update could distribute it with in just a few minutes...
1. Receive update.
2. Let it apply
3. Unlock bootloader
4. Flash TWRP
5. Back up entire system
6. Post to internet.
But to what you are saying... Yes, it is correct that you can only get the update.zip before install. However see my point about getting the entire deal.
Then anyone could restore his TWRP back up and have whatever it is he has...
Perhaps newer builds of the firmware will be more widely tested soon, and more likely to leak out.....
The thing that's bothering me is that perhaps we might not get this firmware at all, and that it might be for testing features in a new 2016 watch from Huawei.
figures crossed we WILL get a download of this soon

Asus Zenwatch roll out is started
I manually downloaded Android Wear 1.1.1.1901499 but no update of my SW3 so far.
Asus Zen Watch getting it http://www.droid-life.com/2015/05/1...ing-out-to-asus-zenwatch-according-to-owners/
Keep checking the sony compain app (windows). Plus sony is kinda known for taking dor ever to push updates.
An hour ago I even tried resetting the watch to force the update. The OTA for the Sony SW3 is not out yet
Someone on android central under the ZenWatch update post, mentioned they received it on their Sony Smartwatch 3. So who knows. Just tried and nothing for me yet.
OK saw that you post a comment at the end.
http://www.androidcentral.com/download-android-511-asus-zenwatch-now
I'm not sure if the download also is usable on our SW3 so I can#t belive that the download is used to flash our SW3.
Maybe he got an normal OTA update

After a moderate amount of searching, I can't find any occurrences of someone claiming they got an update that way before it showed up OTA. Have you?

Come on update! I am ready!!
Just got another android wear app update, tried a watch reset but no luck.
Feels like they were bragging about Wear 5.1 pretty early just for the competition from Apple
https://productforums.google.com/forum/m/#!category-topic/android-wear/Dm-_S6xxtS4
Argggghhhh. Where is it? Please post if anyone gets it on SW3
The watches getting updates first are the non-wifi ones. Urbane is the only wifi capable AW device with 5.1, but there was a critical bug that prevented it from accessing wifi channels above 11. So be thankful that the Urbane users are beta testing 5.1 for us and it'll be less buggy when the rollout for SW3 happens eventually.
USA doesn't use 2.4ghz ch12 so I see how they missed that. But for those in Europe that would be important.
Google is now rolling out the update!
http://www.xda-developers.com/android-wear-5-1-1-ota-downloads/
But not to the SW3, yet.
The Huawei Watch Update to Android Wear 1.4 will start next monday, 29th.
The update will bringt some new features, especially the support for the build in speaker. Referring to latest information it will be possible to listen to Spotify offline playlists with the Watch. There will be also a new reminder and a keyboard.
I'm rellay looking forward to the update!

I'll believe it when I see (and hear it) myself on my wrist.
At this point people have had to wait quite a while for the update with very little news from Huawei.
God help us to see it!
it "starts" on Monday but Huawei have not detailed the update roadmap (which countries first etc..)....

Really? All the other watches to update so far don't even get the full benefit of the update because they don't have a speaker. I'd much rather have a well tested update that I don't have to worry about rather than the bricking mess that Moto is going through right now.

He'd rather have his "unicorn" moto 360 2nd gen since his (supposedly the one he is going get) is the only one in existence with a speaker in it.
Seriously though, if you truly aren't happy with a product, and you (as in everyone in general) aren't going to give constructive criticism, it's better to move on than to stay and spread nothing but negativity :good:

I realy love the watch without speaker. When i bought it i have no ideea that next update will bring speaker support. I think thats a briliant ideea to buy a product and after month and month when its getting old redescover same old product and love it again with a new feature. You wait long for update from google or huawei? U shoud see samsung users how long they have to wait for an update. Google just confirm speaker suport few month ago. Last year it was just rumoors never confirm. I am just curios how loud is the speaker.

I do believe he is referring to DOZE feature that turns off even ambient mode after a while if it senses it is not worn. OR the wake-up gesture that will be seconded by the "sleep" gesture where you lay your hand next to body and watch is put in ambient/screen off.

Thats the problem. It even turns the display off if you wear the watch.
Actually, I find it pretty neat and it already works for me in the current firmware. When I fall asleep on the couch with my watch on the wrist I wake up with it having display off. The same happens when you leave your watch on the table unattended. It works quite consistently as I never experience this "doze" mode when working at the desk or moving in general.
That's true. I also noticed this a few times when it's just on the desk, it turns off after 2 hours of non-movement

I know that the display is turned off after a while when you put the watch on the desk, but that's not new, that's already the case.
Good news guys Looks like Google is giving us treats for the holiday season.
https://www.gsmarena.com/android_wear_devices_to_get_oreo_update_starting_today-news-28614.php
I'm guessing that every watch that is supported by AW2.0 will also be getting Oreo update. Yes, original Huawei watch is already beyond the 2 year support period but i don't think that the same rules goes for watches like it's usually the case with phones. Do you think original HW will be getting Oreo? I mean, we got new security update some days ago so it's still supported
I hope so,waiting for the update in a month.
In comments on articles about this, people have been reporting even the original Moto 360 is already getting this. I'm not sure the relationship between android version and android wear code but maybe it's pretty easy to merge the Oreo updates with the manufacturer's code now that they are on AW 2.0.

The fact that we got a security update doesn't mean much. There were some pretty high profile vulnerabilities that needed patching (KRACK, etc.).

That sucks :/ I kinda knew this would happen eventhough i was optimistic and hopeful that Huawei Watch still gets it. So, it's finally the end of software support for our beloved original HW **** you, you ugly ass HW2!
Can someone explain this End Of Life situation though...? The Huawei Watch is STILL on sale via Huawei's direct website! Surely they shouldn't be selling a watch without providing the software support seriously!? I thought the deal was 2 years after the device goes on sale or 18 months after it stops being on sale (whichever is longer).
I think this statement needs to be reiterated to Huawei and Google.
Also I bought the watch thinking the support life would be alot longer than a phone... People don't buy +£200 watches for only 2 years usage.
This "policy" may have just made me decide that I'm not interested in Android Wear anymore... Even my Pixel 2 will have a longer shelf life!
EOL is not here yet, just no Oreo. This is near the bottom of the article.
Some of the watches dropped from support include the ASUS ZenWatch 2 and 3, the original Fossil Q Founder, the LG G Watch R/Urbane/Urbane LTE, the second-gen Moto 360 and 360 Sport, and the original Huawei Watch. Those watches will continue to get Android Wear updates (like the recent v2.6 update) through the Play Store, but the underlying Android version will be stuck on Nougat.

The only one for the HW1 is discontinued. The dev's watch died and Huawei gave him a watch 2. If another dev steps up, yes, but since there was only one and that dev does not plan to continue.
The thing is I only love the look of HV1 watch. Most stylish. There is no other V2 watch out there that comes close.
I have a Huawei Mate 10 running Oreo so it's a shame my watch won't match my phone.

Well actually, just staying on wear 2 isn't a bad option, it still works wonderfully.
I agree. The more that Huawei Watch (1) is still officially on sale and is more expensive in stores than Huawei Watch 2.
I've made a post on their Swedish FB-site, here in Sweden it is still actively sold by two of Huawei's recommended resellers advertised at Huawei's site.
Can we figure out if the 18 months after sale claim is valid for Wear as well as regular Android? And was this formulated before or after the launch of the Watch?
I spoke to Huawei Technical Service. They do not have anywhere indicated that they provide support for 18 months from purchase / production. They claim that it depends on Google - not from them. They do not guarantee anything
It's a pity, because I have their P9 Plus smartphone and Watch 1 smartwatch and I think it makes the highest-class flagship.

This is amazing. For an old ass watch. Thanks Google
Wow great to hear that such an old watch still getting an update.
Anyway, still can't find any new smart watches that I think it's worthy to replace my Huawei Watch 1.
I saw a few videos talking about this update.. excited to see it! and glad its coming to our watch! i was just reading on how a lot of people downgrade from AW2.0 to AW1.5 because of how poor AW2.0 is.. I wonder if this new one will be better than both.
Hold your horses. So far, the only evidence we have that we're getting this update is an uncited and unknown Google rep saying that "all watches with 2.0" will get it. No official Google announcement has confirmed this that I can find. Also, that "list of phones that definitely won't get it" is from a Google post released in 2017 that simply states which phones will not get Android Wear 2.0. Call me a pessimist, but I'm far from convinced that we're getting this.
And if we do get it, I doubt it will be in the form of a firmware update, as some have reported. I suspect it will be just an update to the Wear OS app.

Just got an update; frustrated to see it is "android wear 2.16."
Apparently the wear os update is limited to oreo devices, but ours is nougat.
https://m.gsmarena.com/the_redesign...ling_out_to_smartwatches_today-news-33513.php
My guess is that this update is not a firmware update but mearly a wear os launcher redesign/update (supposition made based on the available screenshots) and maybe also of some apps such as google fit. This is why all devices get it (on wear 2.0) as it does not depend directly on wear os base version (Nougat / Oreo).
Edit: although from the gsmarena article the update is called Wear OS 2.1, so who knows. We play the waiting game...
I wish we would have a clear answer, I got a bit excited thinking I would have it and tried forcing an update in various ways.

It's rolling out now. There's a complicated but confirmed working (I did it) method to trigger it that has been described in other threads on this forum. People have also reported triggering it by uninstalling and reinstalling the wear os app from the watch. Either way, you'll probably see it any day now.
As I suspected, it's a wear os app update (must be version 2.16 or later), not a firmware update.

I know we can download an APK for camera P3 and get the feature but why is it taking so long for Google to release the official features advertised? It's been a month the device has been out now, do we have any official release dates?
Short answer: no one knows
Certainly is ridiculous, you advertise features that don't release with a phone. Between that and the memory issues they can't fix quick enough they wonder why they can't get people from Apple to convert over. Just terrible business...
If they're taking longer to iron out bugs and improve the feature, in my opinion they can take as long as they like.

It's not that big of a deal. It's only been out for 4 weeks. Plus, companies including Apple regularly advertise features that don't get added until after the device launches. The original portrait mode for Apple devices came out months after the phone launched.

Apple users never convert, you should know that. Night mode will not make them either.
If you're simply dying for the feature there is an apk that will install a second app drawer camera with the feature until it's merged into the regular one.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't they say at the Pixel reveal that it would come in November?

nice thanks, gonna do the same now.
Was waiting on the official update because the official gcam works very well with google photos etc.
The camerap3 apk doesn't work very well with gphotos

Thanks. Got it working. Very smooth.

I installed and compared with the modified old apk.
It seems there is a slight quality decrease with the official one when you zoom and check. Old one is a little bit better. I have compared only the night site. Official app is sticking more to the lower ISO than old apk.

I actually find it better, the compression is better and less blurry compared to the old modified apk. Photos with night sight is sharper with this new update.
Jesh. What a differenc between the two. Night sight actually works well
I just got it on an update for official camera
