International firmware - update from SD Card (No FlashTools) - for KOSPET Prime 2 updated 2021.06.26

Here is a small list of intended changes that are planned for the next preview version:

  • Software keyboard will use fullscreen mode by default to avoid layout issues caused by the limited display space:
    keyboard

  • The camera rotation toggle is being placed on the powermenu to have it accessible for third party apps:
    camera

  • The poweroff and reboot button will revert back to a short press touch to make it less confusing.

  • Google applications and modules are updated to the current revision.

  • Weather can be updated by third-party apps with a broadcast:
    am broadcast -n com.android.watchweather/.WeatherNewAppWidget

  • Global density is slightly decreased to fit more content on the screen.

  • Font size steps are slightly increased to offset the density change and to have a larger overall impact.

  • CPU frequency underclocking/undervolting adjusted to avoid instability.

I think I had a reboot with the stock launcher. It was actually more of a soft reset than a hard reboot as before. The watch face reset itself and apps that were in memory no longer were. It happened about 12:20ish. I see in the log there are fatal signals at 12:21:53 - logcat3.txt - Google Drive

I think this might be caused by the kernel, there is some slight undervolting/underclocking in place that might be too aggressive for some devices.

Does anyone has any idea when they keep their kp2 on 100 at night what is the battery in morning (WiFi off nothing running background)
My watch decreases to 93% this scares me and makes me nervous

I was looking forward to this Andy the flip camera will really help me in third party apps

You can check here to get more information what might causes battery drain on your device.

Edit:
Battery usage looks fine on my device, this is with WIFI enabled and SIM card:


battery2

The app i’m using is AccuBattery.

Why?
Have you thought of charging it overnight via an outlet timer that turns the power on a couple of hours before you wake up?

Hi
I have been a long time lurker( had a prime but gave it to my Son so now have the prime 2) but had to join to say thanks for this firmware.
Battery life is a lot better in 12 hours (2100 - 0900 ) 5% battery loss
I tried for hours to flash watch on my desktop, but could not get flash tool to recognize watch , borrowed my sons laptop and it flashed first time no problem

It’s a wonderful new firmware. But how older clock faces are affected, which have the ability to access applications quickly through array buttons. Are the package names the same as Google dial or Google messenger, which I used with the old firmware? Are the Settings and Weather the same?

I think my watch has a problem today I charged it to 100% made it to 90% and kept it with me (WiFi off no sim) and after 12hours battery was at 75% this is not good result. Like where does the 15%battery fly
I will surely try your app and check my progress btw how did u take a screen shot

…no I meant charging it to 100%and keeping it with me overnight and in morning battery decreases. Today I did it again from 90% battery after 12 hours battery was 75 very disappointing

I would factory reset and test with no apps installed.
We are getting 0.5 % per hour in standby which is pretty damn good.

After factory reset you should install a power monitor as @none mentioned before.

Just out of curiosity…what apps do you have installed at the moment?

A lot has changed when using array 100 with old faces . Google message is one of them . I started altering my favourite clockskins one by one manually .

HEHehhehehhehehehhehehehehehehehehheheheheh
I m glad you asked but I don’t think that should affect the battery as they are only installed not on use let me make a vid and show you…

It is not letting me upload the video I tried many times I’ll send pics then











Oh almost forgot

I assume some of those applications create a wake lock / send notifications all the time that prevents the system from deep sleep.

Hi guys, thanks for your effort for this update.

I flashed it on prime 2 and i have some questions;

– I can’t find the task cleaner (The one that you’re swiping while on the clockface to clean ram. It was there in the previous firmware) So my battery drain is insane because of that. 100 percent to 20 percent in 10 hours in the night.

–Is there any way to update weather automatically? Everytime i need to go manually refresh weather.

Thanks.

ANy idea which would it be cuz some of them like a lot of them. Just downloaded and only YouTube sends me notification and news for cricket updates I don’t think I get any other notifications what do you think do I factory reset?

Thank you, i understand.
