Hello everyone!
We've had builds from clean source working from a while now, but haven't been able to get them to boot. We narrowed the issue down to our boot image packing. Both mkbootimg and abootimg were causing panics.
Now, that's changed. Thanks to janjan on XDA, our images are booting! We're still discussing as to how he packs them, but this is good news.
Our next steps are to add the NFC components into /system and ensure NFC modules are working properly in the kernel. From what I understand, NFC isn't registered as a Java service on our current systems, so we're going to have to modify /system before the kernel.
Wish us luck! In fact, you should come check out our Discord server for more frequent updates. You can watch us debug and build in pretty close to real-time.
Also, I have a request for the community. A few days ago, my Wear24's pinout board suffered a malfunction, and will no longer connect to my computer over USB. This makes development more difficult. I am looking for a seller/donor of their pinout board. This board is only used for SIM and pinout, and is not necessary to boot your watch. I am willing to pay CA$20 for this board plus shipping. This does require you to open your watch, and if you are interested in flashing this project at some point, you will need to unlock your bootloader and flash TWRP. I am willing to send an extra pinout cable to someone willing to sell me their board so they can unlock and flash before they sell the board.
I have two extra pinout cables now. I am willing to sell them for $5 each, plus shipping.
Either of these transactions help the development of this project. Please contact me at XDA (@JaredTamana) or on Discord if you are interested.
One more thing. Google+ shuts down in April. Blogger comments will take place of G+ comments, which will be deleted and cannot be migrated.
