Thx, I think it can be flashed dirty over previous version simply wiping Dalvik and Cache, right?
No absolutely not. If you did that it would leave you in a real mess.
When it is ready it will be a completely new system partition.
You HAVE to use firmware upgrade option in SP Tool.
It will wipe the watch.
if you have zeblaz thor then you'll have to flash the les1 firmware to do the upgrade you can't do upgrade on thor if it does'nt have the les1 firmware.

when you say " you have to use firmware upgrade option " in SP tool what is the difference from using the download only option and un ticking the preloader ?
i have used this download only with the preloader not selected in the past for firmware upgrades and all has gone well or am i doing something wrong ?

If you ever use the firmware upgrade option you will notice that it performs an extra step by formatting the system, data and cache and the pre-loader - in fact all the partitions you are going to be flashing. But you will not lose your security info partition where IMEI and MAC addresses are stored.
Using download only mode does not format all these partitions and so you can often end up with ghost files from previous installs.
If you use format all + download option you lose all IMEI and absolutely everything. Never use this option!!
