I’m ok with flashing the FW, it’s just very difficult to do if you can’t find a FW to flash…

Hi I have this watch aswell and mine has the same ota message. Word of warning i thought the firmware was the same as the kw88 and flashed and bricked it pablo 11 got me the latest firmware which is posted on this forum re flashed and now everthing is fine. If your watch does not show the + sign to add faces then consider the new firmware but you will have to flash to get it.

Hi, can you confirm that the firmware version here in the forum allows you to install custom faces? Thanks

I know but on this watch Erics Launcher is very erratic. So I want a stock launcher.
Thanks anyway

the problem is that this watch is’nt supported anymore and so you do’nt have the update which allows to install custom watch faces. i’ll check…

edit: you can install custom faces on your watch, look for an update which allows to install custom faces and you should see a folder called “clockskin” you download any WF that you want and copy the folder(not zip or rar but dir folder which contain only png items) inside the zip\rar file to the “clockskin” folder and reboot the watch and you should see it, but be careful do’nt erase any custom watch face when your watch is on one, to make changes in the folder it is better to be on stock WF.

Can some one plz post a video regarding how to install firmware in lemfo y3 ,step by step.

I am a little bit afraid to flash the firmware
(I am afraid that i should not brick my smart watch)

So someone plz help

it is very easy.

make sure the watch is turned off in the whole process.

1. have you made sure that you installed drivers and usb mtp? does the computer recognize the watch? 2. download sp flash tool and extract it. i use v5.1644. 3. download the firmeware for your watch: /thread/695/latest-y3-factory-firmware 4. click on scatter loading file and locate the file of the firmware it ends with txt. and open it, after that all the tables in the sp flash tool should be loaded. 5. make sure that download only is chosen and then press download. 6. plug your watch to the computer and you should see the process on the sp flash tool started and when it reaches 100%  you'll see a green mark. thats it:)
