I have a Fairphone 5 running the latest build of Murena’s /e/ OS, and I can’t get it to pair with my Moto 360 Gen 3. Every time I try to pair it via the Wear OS app, the process times out and I get an error that says “Cannot complete setup” at the top, then “can’t update your watch” and it tells me to reset.
I had the watch paired with my Fairphone 4 running iodéOS, but it took some trick involving pairing with the Chinese and US-based versions of the Wear OS app in a specific order. I have a copy of the Wear OS China app, but trying to pair with it gives me an error saying that I can’t use it outside of China. I’ve been trying to find the guide I used for this originally, but literal hours of searching has turned up nothing.
I’m about at my wits’ end here. Any thoughts on what I can do get this damn thing working with my new phone? Even unpaired, I can get wifi debugging working, if that will help!
Kinda weird to be running Chinese modified app that probably has access to tons of data (as most wearable companion apps do) on privacy focused system.
That’s certainly a fair point, and something that bugs me too, even with the app firewalled off from internet access. If you have other suggestions for how I might use my watch (or even a different one) with the FP5 running /e/ OS, I’d legitimately love to hear them.
