KingWear - KW18 support #74

Closed giovannism20 closed 6 years ago

giovannism20 commented 6 years ago

I gained this watch but hated the system and wondered if I could test the AsteroidOS in it.

I can't find the option to unlock the bootloader.

It does not appear to be Android based. There is most likely no way to port to that device.

EDIT: Ahh I see it is Android but yeah as you stated a locked bootloader would pretty much stop all efforts in porting.

Indeed, I'm afraid @parkerlreed is right, there is no way to port AsteroidOS to that device. I'll close this issue as it can not progress any further.

EDIT: I have worked with Android Kingwear watches and I don't recognize their ROM on the KW18, plus it is based on a MTK2502 which is an "IoT" SoC which doesn't seem to support Android.https://s3-ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/mediatek-labs-imgs/downloads/7e3335a536ceb70c03a802ddb57bedf8.pdf?response-content-disposition=inline%3B%20filename%3DMediaTek_MT2502A_SOC_Data_Sheet_v1_0.pdf&X-Amz-Content-Sha256=UNSIGNED-PAYLOAD&X-Amz-Security-Token=FQoDYXdzEE0aDDbPYdtSo1zueqxFtyLBA1nq%2BkjT%2ByPNxz7vV8sWLs6Gi1FQ9Cjs0wXXaWuf7jg6FCbmHjvvHWk%2B8GnZy0Q%2FN%2B2M%2BzCcOwJlo6JDuugCJMkeeToFhFl4YNLHXct7NxCcRL7gpYFq3q98N86L5opQZkBcV%2B%2FyuzommQYMm8MX54YF%2Fx1%2B7PBKW0tjYgsRTUeGwiTDm3m76uBQYCwBEseTG6l2uvVYyS5NZ2NPF94DQrmejRsyRrYM1AZDNdXo99UDQJrafG47E57zv7aJRkPGUAtH%2Fhj89SKobSUyUId3Kktx1AzfP4vA8P33aW1p2nvhPfl9ZRDjPxGNrhOskP4cViM%2BaHltqBwbpeidqceGWOJfFZ0xWYfBbbZKYFt0mHDoHnojxbAf7ol%2BERWXrmrP7e3dKcmdldPxF9i20kP3aGs10OB4azcUcl2Wlb1rbMMRPkAXw7%2BYdskC%2Bti8dkblPFKOb6%2BfEqx91Rhr7gt5clwfS5Ef90J94SPem9J9R3GAsIK1jS2dKYxbEu80pcBminQRQe%2BmTpySpYjjx%2FZg6aQE3vW8XY%2BcfY4Qsz2SVGga25nc1ERtu78RRQ8Wxirmsvebla8v%2FD%2BSn%2FL%2FcdghBPoFKImM6tkF&X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Credential=ASIAJ7UYWVJR57DJHL2A%2F20180702%2Fap-southeast-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20180702T202447Z&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&X-Amz-Expires=600&X-Amz-Signature=f9ee0b9180fbf9b47e4db21b3e9eb1555d7a4198318f7542d71332de06b6929a Otherwise, MTK watches are usually easy to "unlock" but they don't have fastboot, you'd need to use something else called spflashtool.

Sure.
