Hello,

Does reflashing the stock rom (x5+) work better (battery life) instead of just resetting it?
Thanks

to flash you do’nt need the watch on, make sure that you flashed the right rom for your watch. with one connectivity i got a full 24hr but with 2 connectivities i now get 24hr with notifications, s health 24\7 and activities for almost 2hr a day.

It didnt improve its just the same as before so i uograded again.

Help needed!
I have Finow X5+.
I downloaded firmware from post -> X5 Plus (w616) Firmware, all necessary things like drivers and SPTool.
I did everything like it was in the instruction and at the end the SPTool said that process was succesful but… the watch cant turn ON. Its bricked. I can`t even see anything when connected to charger.
Please guys help me…
Thanks!

make sure the battery is more than 80% and try again, delete the rom from your computer and download it again.

I`m not sure if the battery is loaded, because even if I connect it to the charger, smartwatch shows nothing...

With it off, try to get into recovery. Holding the power button + low button. When the finow logo appears, release the power button and continue to the low button. Go to clear EMMC and go to the power button. This will erase all of your smartwatch personal information.

It doesn`t work. Watch is completely not responding. No logo, nothing... I only noticed that when I connect it to PC it appears in Device Manager and disappears and again appears and disappears... and again and again.
