Ok, I just read through all 362 posts in this thread so I think I’ve got the answer to my question above. Still a couple other thoughts:

Somewhere in my memory banks I seem to recall a problem using anything after Magisk 18.1 on Kospet? False memory or is there something to that?

Is it possible to downgrade updates to v1.5 or v1.6 if you find changes you don’t like?

Yep but magisk is working fine on all the updates as far as I know?

Flashing worked fine. Just a note for some here on flashing I always set the watch on the charging dock (after it is off and USB cable not yet connected to PC) the click ‘download’ or start in the flashtool, then attach the USB cable to my PC and it starts the flash right away. Learned that from other MTK devices as the most sure way to get a flash started.

Thanks! Just getting ready to fire up SP flash tool. I’m planning to first try ‘download’ of just the TWRP image and Magisk patched boot image to my 1.5b current build.

That all went well. Rooted with Magisk and with TWRP installed. I installed J.Rummy’s ROM Toolbox which has a ‘reboot’ function that will let you reboot into recovery - TWRP in this case. It’s also great for freezing apps and a lot of other uses. Without ROM Toolbox I don’t think there is a way to reboot to TWRP unless you have a PC (or there may be a couple other root Apps that will allow that also).

Can anyone say if the v2.1b update takes care of the rotation problem with clockfaces? I’m not sure I actually understand clearly what that problem involves if anyone can elaborate. Until I got the Prime the only Android watches I had previously were square face.

You can just use magisk manager to reboot to recovery.
Can also use the Magisk busybox module.
Basically no need to install anything else unless you want to actually write to the system partition.
I prefer to use system less modules myself.

Glad you had no problems :+1:

Hi pablo11, I thought I saw a checkbox about recovery mode when I was installing Magisk but I didn’t check it or any of the other 2 boxes I saw. Other than that I don’t see any options in Magisk manager to reboot to recovery now. Is that a module add on to reboot into recovery or did I miss something? Thanks again for all your help and posts in the Prime thread!

Have a look at the three dot menu in the Modules section of Magisk Manager.
Same as the photo

Thanks again! That’s the one thing I didn’t touch :flushed: Looking back through some older versions I’ve got on phones I see that option has been there quite a while and I don’t recall if I ever knew about it. :+1: Might be an age related thing … :wink:

I did a simple test of the battery level display error.

WFD does not fix this error.
You can see the error in the pictures.
GOOD DISPLAY (all stock launchers. These are made from OPTIMUS PRO 4.0.) This is how PRIME 2.0 worked.

BAD DISPLAY (Someone wanted to do good. Centered display alignment. Can’t be used for graphic display with variable position.)

These are the UL display positions We are already used to this
(If possible, it would be good to standardize the positions)

Did the 2.1 OTA and my battery is draining very fast and 10-12 hours then the battery is emty. Heartrate and pedometer dosen’t work.

Please perform a factory reset. This will solve your problems.

Did factory reset but still dosen’t work. I also did 2.0 OTA mabey i must do reinstallation from computer?

Maybe heartrate and stepcounter is disabled in the settings?
If not, I would flash it manualy.

Check BT and location as well.
In the newer firmware these are on after update by default.
It is to help people pair with their phone etc.
Just turn them off.
