Marshmallow OTA link here - Sony Smartwatch 3

Here's the official OTA link to update from LCA43 (Lollipop) to MEC24H (Marshmallow). Enjoy! You can only flash this on a watch that is completely stock! If you need to restore your watch, Sony PC Companion might work.
https://android.googleapis.com/pack...e2ee74fbab.signed-tetra-MEC24H-from-LCA43.zip
Small note: This OTA will update the bootloader to block "tethered booting" in fastboot while the bootloader is locked (so you will have to unlock the bootloader to use TWRP). If you want to keep the old bootloader, there is a post on the third page. This zip is signed by Sony, so you can flash it in stock recovery with a locked bootloader.
Edit: Here are some screenshots. Not much has changed compared to Lollipop, and Sony hasn't added anything compared to other watches, so they're not very interesting. https://imgur.com/a/Vp8hY (Ambient Mode might look worse on your watch because after I flashed Marshmallow I edited build.prop to disable low bit ambient mode. If you want to do this too, I made a crappy tutorial for that on reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/AndroidWea...an_disable_low_bit_ambient_mode_to_make_your/)

Hi,
thanks for link. Could you give here some tutorial how to install this update ?
Must have unlock bootloader for this update ?
Thanks.

Open up adb on a computer and plug in the watch. Issue adb reboot recovery and tap the watch screen when the recovery droid picture shows up. Swipe down to the sideload option then swipe right. Issue adb sideload blahblah.zip (obviously put the real zip name where "blahblah" is) and wait. After it finishes, swipe to the reboot option and swipe right to select. Your watch has been updated!

so you have already disabled low bit mode??? and did you reup the zip after or was that done before you uploaded it?

The zip is the stock zip on Google's servers. My mod is separate, I just mentioned it in case anyone was wondering why my card previews looked better than theirs.

anychance you can provide a revised zip with the mod??

Can Someone provide boot.img from MM update?

No, because the mod is literally only adding a single character (#) to a line in build.prop. If I repacked it into a zip you would still have to boot TWRP and use adb to flash it, which is 90% of the work.

I'll try to pull the boot image tomorrow.

HK HTC10 Returning to stock rom

Hi there, I'm using Hong Kong version of htc10, i tried to root it but when i flashed supersu and xposed arm64 sdk23, it comes to stuck in the system ui interface showing that: 'System UI has stopped unexpectedly....etc.' Looping in that point. So i tried wipe all data in twrp mode and reboot again, still the same situation. Then I download a TW version of stock IMG which is 1.30.708.1(Original was 1.53.708.4) and flashed it in download mode, after that i rebooted it, everything is normal again. Fresh new welcome screen.
But there are some features that i can't use such as can't receive 4G+ signal, can't receive VoLTE, even could't use battery saving mode ....etc.
So I just want to know where can I find the STOCK IMG for my HK version CID HTC__622, which is 1.53.708.4 or so called RUU for it? Thanks.:crying::crying:

the working link for the download is on the next page.
this is definitely the HK rom as after a wipe the default language is HK Chinese.
only problem is OTA does not work and when trying to manually flash the OTA manually (using TWRP and stock recovery) the check on the OTA zip passes but the system check fails so it looks like system has been modified.

Once that file is in correct spot, you will see option to flash it (VOLUp to flash). Been a while since I flashed stock img. Check guide section if you want to confirm.

Sorry to bother you again, I put the 2PS6IMG in the external card, but it show an error message:" FAIL19 RU_MAIN_VER_FAIL os-version in android-info missing."
Maybe the IMG version that i downloaded us higher than my phone currently running? I'm running 1.53.XXX now.
Well, nevermind, I S-OFFed my htc10 and flashed the zip, now I'm using stock firmware and able to receive OTA, Thanks a lot man! You are my HERO!!

Flash fire ain't working phone just reboots with no changes
can i install on retbr?
I think the location version does not matter as long as you have the right build number. I had retla .15 and tried to flash .35 in order to update to .67 (fail), the ota ask for .14/.15. So I had to install stock .15 again and redo the process.
Something I'd like to add is the stock recovery did not recognize internal or sd storage, so I had to push ota via ADB.
*Also my warning bootscreen changed from N/A to Bad Key multiple times for apparently no reason. But everything is working fine.
Pls tell me how u went back to 15 plsss

Exactly what I have been trying to tell. There is a fingerprint mismatch that happens. On a side note how did you manage to take yourself back from .35 to .15 and then update to .67. I get the last part, but downgrading with a higher bootloader; and where did you get the .15 build
You can simply install one of the stock versions already posted here in the forum, I just downloaded the .15 and installed it again via fastboot with the command lines (also explained in that post, in comments) like any other stock rom. Then, after starting the phone you must activate USB debbuging mode to be able to use ADB commands, so you can restart the phone in stock recovery and activate the push ota update via ADB.
Anyway, if this sounds complicated I think there is already a flashable .zip to apply ota, you can give it a try.

Help needed ! stuck in Bootloop

Hey guys. Today I tried rooting for the first time using this guide
In the third step of the article "3.Flashing TWRP and Rooting via TWRP" I pressed cancel when it asks for an encryption password(I hadn't put one yet). I also flashed the english TWRP( Recovery file) and not the one provided in the article . Now the phone just wont boot. Whenever I try to boot it, it gives me the error message:
"Your device has been unlocked and cannot be trusted.
ID: N/A"
And TWRP comes up everytime .
When i try booting from factory it shows:
"Your device has been unlocked and cannot be trusted.
ID: bad key"
and TWRP comes up.
The phone is still recognized in adb.I still haven't flashed SuperSU if that helps.
Should i Flash stock recovery and try again ?
Please send help, guys.

I have similar problem like yours. The solution to boot your drvice. If your in twrp go to advance - reboot - bootloader. And in bootloader menu click start. And your phone now is booted
This is a alternative solution. But it wont damage your device. Trust me

I don't think I messed with the OS . I just unlocked the bootloader and flashed TWRP without flashing SuperSU.(done it for the first time for my Moto Z play). Used Wipe to clear davlik,cache and that's it.haven't done anything in the recovery since then.
The only thing i remember messing up was to not input the encryption key when it prompt me for it by clicking cancel.
I've read in some forums that it doesn't boot if it doesn't have SuperSU flashed,but I'm not sure if it's safe since i don't exactly know what might or might now permanently brick my phone.
Also some forums had something to do with patching the kernels (don't know if that's what you call it) but i don't know if it's a safe thing to do since it might also permanently brick my phone.

You used the Chinese TWRP originally? Now you have alberto97 TWRP? Is this correct?
I would flash a custom ROM, why I'm saying that is it's far safer flashing a zip ROM than trying to flash the stock firmware.
Again I will remind people the flashing bootloaders on moto devices will inevitably cause hard bricks if you downgrade and the accept an ota.
---------- Post added at 06:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:39 PM ----------
The only solution and this applies only if you want to remain on the stock ROM.
Download the retail firmware and only manually flash the boot.img, the 10 sparsechunks and the OEM.img.
Do not use rsdlite!!
This should boot your phone.

I would install the aosp ROM as it is bare bones android.
As for bootloaders, when you receive an ota it flashes a new bootloader.
What some folks have done is because they feel like a new ota isn't working to their liking, they have downgraded their firmare, either by flashing the firmware package that can be downloaded. They flash the entire package including bootloader, what this does is set up a perfect hard brick scenerio for moto devices.
They accept an ota or for reasons that are beyond uderstanding, sideload the package and bam as soon as they restart there device it bricks their device due to the mismatched bootloaders.
You are unlocked and the easiest way to prevent hard bricks is to for go flashing firmware.

Then it will boot the device in bootloader mode. And in the bootloader menu click on "start" using the power button. Then it will boot your phone. Everytime you reboot your phone do the same step. If you want to get rid of that thing you need to flash official rom via rsd lite

Rsdlite sucks, never flash any firmware with resdlite unless you know which lines need to be removed from the text file that tells rsdlite what to flash.
manually flashing firmware is IMO much safer and all you need to flash is the boot.img all the spareschunks and oem.img

I did what you had asked me to ,unfortunately it doesn't work. I would be happy just being able to boot using the above method.
Thanks for the suggestion tho !

That's fine and it's my ROM lol.
You may want to format your data but first try to flash the ROM and see if it boots.
That Chinese TWRP is a nasty thing

I don't have any idea how to recover my update ota, lenovo is trolling me.
I don't understand what your issue is. But if you missed OTA, is will come again soon.
I think one way to help that is to clear cache of update app. Just google it.
While you are there, once the OTA is downloaded to your phone AND before actually upgrading, it would be good to copy the update file to your PC and share it with others who don't get the OTA.

I found the solution, I'll repost the fastboot link that alexeei provided.
The overall improvements I've been noticing:
Connection problems that sometimes occurred in my region, are no longer giving.
Battery I noticed is lasting about 45 minutes longer.
PT-BR was basically 100% implemented in every layout.
The 4G connection has been improved.
I also believe that they have made some changes in the kernel, because the way the cores are working, is different gives version 284, ie better, I'll find out if in Benchmark improved anything.
And the audio in dolby atmos, I'm feeling that the audio has improved, it's louder and clearer.
camera haven't tested yet
However this is it: D
Here the link
Thanks for @alexeei

No, it's not neccessary
ok, i'll install it after it charges... this version comes with the new 4D Utouch?
In first Thank's a lot for the file !!!!
But after the flash , my phone don't reboot, hopefully reflash Alexeei Twrp solve my problem, evrithing seem ok now.
More info when more tested the rom
@alexeei, the file you shared is full ROW rom?
If so, when flashing with TWRP over an older version of ROW, will it keep data and apps?
Thanks!
I flash over my 284st the alexeei fastboot rom, but with the fastboot .bat.
And i have keep all my app,data and setting.
But the phone don't work in first attempt, must reflash the twrp for fix boot.
Don't know if this problème is only for me or more general.
My config before flash. Rom 11.0.284st + twrp alexeei + magisk 19.3.
Now everything seem ok and perf is good, except aod still dont work.

You only need flash vbmeta with --disable-verity option, i make it default in installer script in future releases.
Ok , thank's for the info !
How can I install this update?
Brillant !
Do you think it can be flashed over CN rom and keep data and apps?
Also, do you know where to find same type of rom file with latest CN rom?
I want to try latest ROW, but I know I will revert back to CN.

Download the RAW, running flashall_AFT.cmd won't delete your data, phone will restart once done. takes about 5 mins. let phone reboot and finish updating in os then turn device off, boot back to fastboot and flash rootWW191044.img from post 2. Done, all up to date with latest rom, data intact and root back
(i did it myslef just moments ago, so it definitely works fine

yes you can just straight away download the ww1910.44 raw, extract it, run flashall_AFT.cmd then wait (around 5-10 minutes) with cmd window open and later your phone will restart by itself and upgraded to ww1910.44 version

A few others have reported this on telegram, not sure how to fix it, seems to only affect a few... Perhaps try flashing again?

Someone on telegram group reported that disabling 'Always-on panel' and 'Lift to check phone' under display settings seems to have fixed it for them... might wanna try that
Edit : no it wasn't, it was disabling pocket mode in Settings
Thanks for all the sharing.
But looking at the problems of .44 , is it advisable to perform the update?
