Hi all, I've been following the development with unlocking the bootloader and loading magisk to the pixel watch. I'm curious as to the ways this can be used. I wonder if there is a way to setup the pixel watch via windows laptop using ADB commands or through magisk or in some fashion through a wired connection. Also has anyone began developing a custom jig for the watch?
I want to see to what extent the pixel watch can function as a standalone smartwatch. It can download apps and receive updates by itself and/or with a laptop. I wonder, besides setup, if the LTE watch needs a phone afterwards at all.
For Samsung Watches since Gear S2 (Tizen) this Trick exists:
Maybe something similar possible on Pixel Watch...
Best Regards

hello everyone
I bought a gtab pro 8.4 and first thing to do was to root, install a proper recovery and of course a custom kernel. After that I debloated my stock rom but I deleted nothing I would call important.
this is my first upper class samsung device since years (I own a galaxy nexus) and I have a question that may some of you could answer:
Does SideSync:
- need KNOX to work?
- depend on other preinstalled apps?
- not work if binary counter for custom roms or kernel is increased?
I can't get it to work, neither with USB nor over Wifi...
Thank you all
edit: or is sidesync on our tabs only to control the mobile phone and not to be controlled by a computer?
I have a GTP 8.4 and an S4 phone. I have SideSync 3.0 setup with them paired.
1) I believe SideSync is only between phone and tablet - no PC involved or supported.
2) After playing with it for 30 minutes or so, SideSync looks completely useless to me.
- SideSync will only connect the devices when they are both on the same WiFi network. So, if you're out and about, you can use it. If you're using your phone as a hotspot and the tablet connected to the Internet via the hotspot, you also can't use SideSync.
- There is a free app for Verizon customers called Verizon Messages, which I already have on my tablet, It gives me full SMS/MMS mirroring between my phone and tablet - without having to pair the devices.
- Leaving SideSync running all the time is a battery hog, so you wouldn't want to do that. So, when you DO want to use it, you have to start it on both devices. Well, if I'm going to pick up my phone to start SideSync, just to control it with my tablet, what's the point? I can just do whatever I need to do on my phone when I pick it up.
- Being able to place/receive calls using my tablet, with it actually going through the phone might be cool sometimes, but, as I said, if I have to grab my phone and start SideSync first, I'm probably just going to make the call using the phone. Alternatively, I'd try to figure out a way to pair my tab to the phone using Bluetooth and use the tablet as a handsfree device instead, leaving SideSync out of it.
If anyone can tell me something useful about SideSync, I'd love to hear it. I may have tried it and totally missed some cool use case.
any ideas why I can hear caller but caller cant hear me??
I find it hard to believe I'm the only one who likes my M360 syncing with my tablet when I'm home, and with my smartphone when I'm out. There is actually no official way to pair the M360 with multiple Android devices at the same time, but I have, however, figured out an alternative. I am going to assume that you already have it paired to one device. If not I believe there are other threads out there to help you with that!
Steps:
In the Android Wear official app, tap the watch icon on the translucent black bar atop the screen to disconnect the M360 first
Check to make sure that underneath the name of your device, the status reads "Not connected"
Go to the watch settings, and reset the device, yes unfortunately there is no way around except factory resetting first
Now go through the original instructions upon boot making sure that this time you pair it with your OTHER Android device
Follow the first two steps again after the device has been paired successfully and booted up
Congratulations! The M360 should now pair with the two devices one at a time after being disconnected from one another!
Hope this helped you guys, as this method definitely works for me with my Nexus 7 (flo) and Galaxy SIII (SGH-I747)!
have you tried Beelink?

Old thread, but for the benefit of others who may find this, the dev has unpublished the Beelink app. It appears that the 4.4W.2 Android Wear update broke the app.
It's now 2 years later, has anyone found a way to connect to 2 devices at the same time? I need to get notifications from personal and work phone at the same time on my M360...
I don't think it is possible, but you can sync notification from one phone to other via pushbullet or similar app. This way can get all notifications on the watch as well.
Hey Everyone!
I just bought a Moto 360 even though I have an iPhone. Through the use of a trusty old Xperia U I managed to do the first configuration and update to the latest O.S. on the watch, adding the Wi-Fi standalone connectivity.
The use I want to do of the device is the following:
Occasionaly, through the Android phone, add watch faces
Siply use the watch standalone for Steps, Heart Rate, and notifications maybe with Aerlink
At this point I would like to set the watch to connect to my home wifi network, and simply upload the fitness data to Google fit in the cloud, without ever using my old android phone (except for new watch faces or changing configuration or updates). Can anyone help me out in achieving this??
Thanks to all!!
Hi I have an stock Nexus 7 running android. I have been looking for a way to cast my phone onto my tablet. I want my S6 to connect to my nexus via whatever means (preferably a wireless means bluetooth, wifi, etc...). I kind of want my nexus to be essentially a touchscreen monitor for my phone.
The only things I can find when I search for this are all related to chromecast and miracast trying to use their android devices to cast to their TV's.
Thank you for you assistance.
Easy...
- on your phone install https://opensourceexcedio.wordpress.com/2010/10/28/droid-vnc-server/
- on N7 install https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.realvnc.viewer.android
As an extra bonus you'll be also able to control your phone from Linux/Mac/Windoze.
Thanks for the advice. I am having trouble getting it to work but this seems to be what I am trying to do.
I need to use watch in enterprise environment as addition to Samsung watches.
I know how to setup Samsung Watch4 and Watch5 without phone, combination of taps & hold on specific icon, but is there similar process for Google Pixel Watch.
How to setup Google pixel watch without phone?
Thanks in advance
