Well

i’m near 60.

To fill the next 20 Years comfortably i did my PPL(A) 5Years ago and live a little bit faster.

There are the expierience that the lemX has full network at 5000ft agl - where all full size handys and tablets are going down.

At 54 I live both faster and slower. Faster when I’m on my cyclo-cross bike, slower when kayaking. Lem X is a good companion.

I’ve read some of your post. You use Lem X with sim card like me. Why do you use online navigation? Offline navigation works great and quite long with Lem X. Altitude readings are surprisingly exact.

Hi mate,

I am fairly certain that you have not been able to get proper root on your LEMX.

My advice to you is to use the latest firmware. Patch the latest boot image with Magisk.

Before you flash the patched boot and recovery - copy the latest Magisk zip file to your watch storage. Make sure it is the flashable zip and not the Magisk apk.

Then flash just twrp and the patched boot image together.
Boot the watch normally and enable usb debugging.
Use ADB to reboot to recovery with this command - adb reboot recovery

Once you get into twrp tick the box to allow modification to the system and then flash the full Magisk zip file.

Reboot the watch. DON’T wipe cache and dalvik before you reboot.

Install busybox to system/xbin - this is important and needs to be successful for root commands to function properly.

If it completes the busybox installation successfully you will have correct root access.

How do o install busybox? Can I just install once I have magisk installed?

You don't install busybox until after you have completed a successful installation of Magisk manager. Once Magisk is installed and twrp is flashed you can install busybox to xbin and use root applications like Root Explorer (for example) Busybox is just needed to facilitate successful root commands within the Android system.

I was reading about busybox a lot trying to understand why I needed it. No success. Root explorer does need it but I found that EX Explorer can do without it. As much as I hate bloated ES I use it when messing with root files and uninstall it afterwords. So why do I need Busybox?

Basically, if you do not have any problems performing root operations without busybox - you can survive without it. Personally I have never been able to use root control without busybox.

I'm in between you - age wise and I've learnt a lesson. Never too late. That's funny that over the computer everybody seems to be younger.
Back to battery. I think that you don’t need so long samples like 10 hours to figure out what eats on your battery. This watch (at least mine) has
extremely well calibrated battery gauge. It’s very reliable. Normally I can predict battery drain within one hour. Once, when I tested some launcher battery gauge went totally nuts. Luckily it went back to normal after uninstall.

I don’t know what apps you have installed there but you have an option to come back to bare bone stock firmware and start from there. I didn’t install latest version so I’m on December 17-th. One thing I learnt is to never install updates without reason. Anyway, if you make full TWRP backups it takes 5 minutes to come back to any firmware/setup without loosing your data.

I removed Macrodroid, and my battery is back to normal. Yesterday I took it off the charger at 6am, at 11:00 that evening, it was at 83%. I am not sure what was going on. I was only able to get the macro to work using either the floating button or a widget. The other options I could not figure out. I may reinstall Macrodroid later and try it again, or maybe see if Lemfo will actually unblock the brightness on the watch itself in a firmware update.

I think that reason for your battery drain was particular trigger you chose. With the hot spot on the screen you created permanent listening event which required CPU activity.

Try to use macrodroid shortcut as a trigger. The precise name of the trigger I use is “Shortcut Launcher”. I use two triggers like this (one for brighter, one for dimmer). They are shot through SwipePad.

Sometimes simplest things are hardest to find. I’m searching for simple dialer for Lem x. The stock one doesn’t display names in calls history neither lets me to add entries to contacts - long press doesn’t work. Pretty basic stuff.

I searched high and low, even used Yandex to avoid Google search tricks. Nothing. Finding free app without adds is next to impossible these days. There was one but it nagged me to sign to my Google/Facebook account for a change. I tried to transplant phone app form my previous watch to no avail - too many strange apk files and they don’t want to install themselves.

Not being able to customize so many things on Lem X is the weakest point of this watch - at least for me. Developers removed many important android settings and left one option that is of no interest to me: super easy clock face swap. How many times did I initiated it unintentionally by pressing the screen half second too long?

I tried that (shortcut launcher), but no shortcut would ever appear in my launcher. Either I was missing a step, or it is because I am using the Universal Launcher, not the stock one.

Universal launcher didn’t work out for me well so I stayed on stock one. If you want to try with SwipePad (it works with every launcher) you can follow these steps:

Install Vysor on your computer and connect watch
Install SwipePad
Go to Macrodroid and add “Shortcut Launched” trigger to your brightness macro.
Configure hot spot for SwipePad launcher to start
Configure default pad
Click chosen portal
Choose green arrow with “Shortcuts”
Find Macrodroid icon
Choose your macro and OK
Choose the icon for the shortcut
Now important: click in the bottom of the Vysor screen

Now you should be fine. When you touch hot spot on your watch and swipe to macro shortcut the macro will fire.

Here are screens from SwipePad configuration:

That worked like a charm and Vysor is real handy application! I am still getting a massive battery drain, but have installed an app to help me tie down what is causing it. You have really gone above and beyond to help me with this. I am sure others are also interested in what you have done here, and you are a real asset to this forum!

Hi
Is 20181217 the newest fw? Still no ota updates for me.

sunpaladin · March 11, 2019, 11:43am

Hi ladies & gents,
a simple question : the stock dialer doesn’t seems to allow to “fusion” calls. I installed others dialers (Truephone…) but when trying to make a conference call, i still can’t find any menu to do this.
Any app / solution to share?

Thx,

Nicolas

I have posted about this many times. Firstly, the watch is designed to notify you that there is a message on your phone. Not to read it or reply to it. Secondly, there is an update coming that will allow you to choose if you want the screen to light up when a notification arrives or not.
