I wanted to try this on my misfit vapor x watch since they are now owned by fossil but it keeps saying," '$' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file." I don't know if thats just cause it's not technically a fossil watch or what.
Great question. Battery life has improved with the latest update. This did not have a huge impact and overall the hardware just isn't enough to run wear os smoothly like an Apple watch. Changing the animation speeds did improve the experience though.
Great video, thanks. Couple of things. The commands you tried on your Mac that didn't appear to work - you may want to look around on your Mac's disc to see if the commands created some files for you. The "> enabled_packages.txt" part of the command is unix speak for "send the output of this command to a file called "enabled_packages.txt" Search your Mac's disc for a file called "enabled_packages.txt" (both commands worked fine on my Mac) Secondly in the video you mention having to "Type darter:/" It isn't actually necessary to _type_ this. "darter" is just the *name* of the hardware (the Fossil Sport iirc) which is displayed when you connect to the watch. It's similar to showing the hostname of the system you're connecting to, in the unix / Linux world.

hi there, with your great video i worked through all the steps and completed thx alot just one thing there's no more those b/w shows on my phone's screen as you r, but in my watch's apps info still lists them. do you kno y? plz help
Awesome! It works but one thing though - Even though the uninstalled apps show as 0 bytes on the watch they show up as apps with normal storage in the ware os app
Yes I've used it on my watch. I only use this watch for the time and maybe text notifications. Performance is still bad but not as bad and battery life is better.
Anyone having the game issue i have: It connects to the phone perfectly. But it turns off minutes after. If i receive a call, start a workout or basically anything. It will turn off and only bank on if i plug the charger. Btw... Battery would still 90+% It's not battery is software. Any help? Ps.: i did hard reset

Never knew wearOS watches came with bloatware as well, awesome video man 🔥
Did you feel better performances after deleting or just after changing animation settings ?

Thanks, this was useful. Managed to uninstall all the fossil bits I did not need.
Will it work in Winodows 10 PC, by using CMD??
I can't go through the Adb Shell instructions. Im also using a macbook.
Please help.
Hi! Im having troubles when I reach the step to connect to adb shell.. when I paste any uninstall command i get the failure message... any ideas?
I followed your instructions worked great. Do you know how to remove these.

Since this won't work on iphone, (according to an earlier post) can I do it from my macbook? I have a windows comp also.
Yes. I used a macbook.
I am using Fossil Sports it doesn't appear with Google pay because in my country Google pay is disabled can u help me to activate
Thanks but how can I leave the developer mode ? When I restart my watch I'm still in developer mode... Thanks for the help
its not working on my windows. adb is not getting installed how do i process
further???
Just noticed the sickening amount of bloat on this thing. I love it, but woooo. No way Jose

Just ordered one of these watches for pretty cheap, hopefully i can pull this off without problems
Did you pulled this off??
@@vineetpatnaik2696 no I actually didn't think it was necessary, the watch is pretty decent even without doing this

That intro man 🔥🔥🔥
Awesome! It works but one thing though - Even though the uninstalled apps show as 0 bytes on the watch they show up as apps with normal storage in the ware os app
Before you uninstalled all these apps, did you ever have Phantom touching your watch? because I have mine 1 week ago and it looks like it has a hacker
It could've just been ghost touching. On occasion I've had the watch flip out until I did an update.
did mobvoi make fossils watches? why is tic watch apps associated to the fossil watch in the first place?
All these companies were bought out lol
How much is the storage because mine only shows 2gb
4 GB total
when using the power shell and pasting the code i keep getting an error saying device unauthorized. halp
nvm
👍
Thanks king. Just needed to look at my watch and select something that popped up
Managed to get it done
What the solution ?
Question: is this possible in any way with iPhone?
G did you find a solution?
Deep Rao no
I tried to do this on my fossil sport watch and it said that it could not uninstall it. It says "not installed for user"
HELP
If you can't do it, don't worry about it. My watch still gives me a hard time after uninstalling the bloat.
Do you have any suggestions on the new fossil GEN 5E on how to remove the blower
No idea, I stopped buying fossil watches lol.
Work's fine for me. Time to test battery life and working speed.
hi man. I wanna ask question. How your smartwatch's battery life now?
How's battery life after you tried this? How's performance?

It's extra apps companies install on their devices before you get it.

You left like all the bloatware on
I only uninstalled what I knew wouldn't break the watch. What's your recommendation

Kate Spade and MK and stuff are suppose to be watch faces I think. The company makes the same watches for them.
