Ticwatch 5: Much benefit in custom ROMs?

Hey folks I got a Ticwatch Pro 5 a few months back and am curious if anyone reckons custom ROMs are worth it.

For years I used to mod my android phones to run ASOP Google ROMs as I tend not to like vendor variants. I run a Pixel now.

The same urge had me checking around XDA for potentially better ROMs or those closer to pure Wear OS.

Just wanna see what people's experiences are first before I go making cables and spending time digging about.

Cheers!

S2, Android 15, Wear OS lost connectivity

Hello!

My pixel 8 did an OS security update yesterday. On restart, wear OS no longer shows any devices listed as setup/connected (opening it is like opening it for the first time).

When my watch is near wi-fi, it is connected and working fine, but it's lost bluetooth connectivity to wear OS on my pixel.

Thoughts?

UPDATE, I was able to make it re-discoverable via bluetooth ADB commands and have repaired with Android Wear. Still not sure why it suddenly went missing.

issues adding a credit card to Wallet on TicWatch Pro 3 GPS

Hello everyone,

Has anyone had issues adding a credit card to Wallet on their watch?

I had an curve card on my watch, and everything worked perfectly until recently. I noticed I couldn’t make payments with the watch anymore, and a message appeared saying that the watch doesn’t meet security standards.

I removed the card from both the watch and the phone (Pixel 7 pro) and tried to add it again. It added fine on the phone, but I’m getting an error when trying to add it on the watch.

All apps are up to date, and no changes have been made to the watch. Has anyone experienced something similar and found a solution?

Thanks in advance for any help

Ticwatch Pro 5 functionality question

Hi all, I returned my Pro 3 Ultra back to Amazon after the 3.5 update ruined the only two features I liked about it, so I wonder if Pro 5 has:

  1. Programmable buttons, so I can have Google Wallet available with just one click of a physical button
  2. Google assistant (I believe so)?
  3. Watch faces that show without touching the screen first? My Pro 3 Ultra after receiving the 3.5 update stopped doing it and would only show the backlit 2nd display when I flicked my wrist, I had to touch it to see the actual fancy watch face. I'm not sure what caused it but I reset it three times and it didn't fix it.

Much appreciated!

Pro 3 won't connect to Google assistant. I'm connected to Bluetooth and wifi. It's connected to my google play and pay account. I don't know what more it could want! So frustrating. I've reset both the watch and phone. I'm at a loss. Everything is updated. Help!

WearOS 4 upgrade turned my TicWatch 5 Pro into a lemon

I bought my TW5 about a year ago and I've been immensely happy with it. It's light, lasts forever, waterproof, snappy, a good size - it ticked pretty much all the boxes.

Then the WearOS 4 upgrade came along.

My watch is now a buggy mess. I've had to factory resset it so many times because sometimes I can't even unlock it.

I drag my finger across the screen and the screen doesn't detect my finger lifting.

My calendar just doesn't work any more. I get no appointments on my watch. All my calendars are on O365 and they've visible on my phone using Outlook and Google Calendar. They used to come across in the WearOS calendar inder WearOS 3 but nothing now in WearOS 4. I tried switching to the Outlook complication but it only ever shows the first appointment of the day.

I use the LED screen as my always-on. Every now and then the watch just won't wake from that screen. No touches, button presses or anything will convince it.

It's such a let-down now. The only reason I still keep it is because I don't want to spend money on another watch.

Why was the upgrade so crap?

TicWatch E3 - massive Battery draining

My TicWatch E3 (Wear OS 3.5) starts battery draining about one week ago. After several Factory Resets and experiments later it turns out, that my google account is the culprit. After copying it from the smartphone, battery draining starts immediately. After removing the Account, the draining stops.

Has anyone a idea how to deal with it? i need the Google Account for Google Pay.

Pro 5 Enduro keeps freezing

My Pro 5 Enduro keeps freezing randomly, almost daily. I can't identify what's triggering this because I don't notice until I glance at it and realize the backlight doesn't come on and the low-power screen hasn't been updating the time for a while. Holding the upper button for 20ish sec reboots it and it's back to normal after that but this issue happens almost daily. Wondering if anyone else is dealing with these frequent freezes or has insight as to what might be causing them. For what it's worth, I'm using the Marine Captain watch face.

New Enduro 5 no tilt-to-wake

I've had a few issues so far. Second week & 3 resets in. It's worked great for 6 days & today it does not respond to tilt to wake - no backlight. It worked yesterday. No settings changed. I use the low power display on wake with backlight. I've tried the amoled one too. Touching the screen no longer wakes up the watch, once tilted.

Pressing the crown does wake it up & then it's fully operational as far as I can tell.

I've rebooted. I've powered it off & repowered.

Mobvoi emailed. They did respond to my last issue after the watch would not sync data, but their suggestion to resolve didn't work & I had to reset it.

After been impressed, I'm starting to think otherwise.

TicWatch 4 Pro won't connect to a new Pixel9

It will pair, and then fail to connect

Will a newer model work better?

My ticwatch pro 3 ultra won't see stay on without being attached to energy..

Out of the blue, two little light black spots appeared on the screen and my watch started behaving this way. When i charge, apparently is charging (the system show the percentage of change in the watch) everything works normal, but as soon as i take off the plug, it works for a couple of seconds and turn off, like the battery never charged.

Someone has gone through the same? Or have some hypothesis to help me? The watch is in good condition and I haven't got the money to buy a new one.

Calls get answered via watch no matter the device you answer them on after Wear OS 4

Hi, after the Wear OS 4 update my TicWatch Pro 5 always picks up the call even if I answer it on my phone. Now I always have to manually switch the call to the phone speaker instead of the watch... This did not happen on Wear OS 3. Anyone has any fix for this ? I already tried disabling the called ID in the phone app, that did not fix it. Using a Xiaomi Mi 11 btw. Thanks

Automatic height calibration on the TicWatch Pro 5

Before the update to WearOS 4, it was possible to calibrate the altitude in TicExercise - off-road running, which worked well.

Now the altitude is automatically calibrated via GPS every time an activity is started, but not correctly. It always calibrates a position approx. 45 m higher than the current altitude.

Is this the problem with my watch or a fundamental problem?

Alexa works great but how do I get it to work correctly when connected to iPhone?

I am using personal hotspot, but shouldn't it be able to get internet via the bluetooth connection? Not sure how this is supposed to be connected? Is anyone using the Ticwatch with an iPhone?

TicHealth: Sync Failed:Your Mobvoi ID is currently logged out

... Please login again

Does anyone know where I logon? Mobvoi Health on Android 14 suddenly would not open after I installed it 4 days ago. Tried obvious clear cache, clear data, force stop, rebooting... Had to reinstall. I then logged into the app & connected to the watch again. I didn't reset the watch. App & watch say they are connected, but no health data is syncing. I only got the watch last week. The following day it had a recurring message so I reset to re-pair. Please don't say I have to do that again. It's not fit for purpose of you need to reset periodically.
