  • Wear OS on lg classic/cats22

I tried getting wear os to work on my cat s22 and quickly realized i cant because it has android go, however the lg classic to my knowledge isn't android go. Does anybody know if its possible to make wear OS work on my cat s22, and will wear OS work on an LG classic?

    Kgr I am assuming you are trying to install an app that communicates with Wear OS? Or is it something else you are trying to do? Please clarify!

        Biden2020prez Sorry about that ill clarify. I am trying to install the Wear OS app on my cat s22 to connect to my smartwatch however the app doesnt appear in the play store since my cat s22 is android go. When i sideloaded the app it wouldn't get past the loading stage and wouldn't fully open.

          Kgr Hmm.. Doesn't seem like you'll be able to get Wear OS app working on the Cat S22, because it's Android Go, and very slim chances of getting a custom rom.

          I don't know about the LG Classic Flip, but I am assuming Wear OS requires Google Play Services

            I believe i read somewhere about turning off lowmem in build.prop but i dont know much about that, do you know what im talking about and if it can work? Im pretty much willing to do anything.

                lgexalter1 Im going to research more before i try because i dont want to brick it but ill let you all know if i get it to work.

                  Kgr lgexalter1 From what I understand, there is no real bootloader access on the Cat S22. No way into Fastboot. So we'd need to get a Qualcomm Firehose in order to root it (as long as it can connect to edl - which I can't confirm. I don't have the phone).

                      Biden2020prez I have the phone is there anyway i can test your idea without bricking my phone?

                        im not sure if theres an aosp version of wear os but you can use windows partition wizard and windisk 32 to flash the image file on to your phone i've used both windisk 32 and windows partition wizard multiple to flash oparting systems on many difrent device ,even on my computer itself

                        Kgr I didn't give an idea. Because we don't have access to Fastboot, we can't root unless a firehose becomes available, which only happens when they get leaked (probably from an authorized service center)

                                  Kgr I have the phone but for some odd reason, it doesn't show any notifications.

                                      Biden2020prez My phone has an unlockable bootloader, also how would this work with no stock rom?

                                        Kgr I wrote my message when I didn't know as much about about the Cat S22, it was based off something someone told me.
