I just got an OTA update for my X5+

Finow X5+ OTA 161207

With all the recent troubles with OTAs, I’m scared to install it.

Has anyone tried this update yet by any chance? And how did it go?

Not much X5+ users here I guess…

So I got all brave and tried it myself.
So far, no problems. After the update the watch took a real long time to boot up, but it got there in the end.
IMEI is still there, Play Store is still working and so far battery life seems ok too.

Unfortunately no changes to the navigation. Apps is still 1000 swipes away and settings 1001 swipes away.
And swipe from edge-left to right still closes apps, so you can’t get into the hamburger menu of the Play Store.

Another update, 161221, 50MB! So it’s a big update!

Please share your personal experience with this update!

Update 161221 is also safe.

Added functionality is that you can now actually reach the hamburger menu of the Play Store.

You have to put your watch in “Zoom Display” mode and the Play Store now actually complies and therefore the hamburger menu is clickable.
