I'm not completely sure about how it works, but it seems to install the su binary to the system partition, and a few other things, so the root is permanent until you remove it somehow.

I booted this image while my watch was in the KGW42N release, rebooted normally and, after a few hours, I received the update to the latest release normally and maintained root. Your experience may vary.

As far as I know, it will also root the newer releases.



This can be flashed from fastboot.



- turn off the watch

- press and hold the power button until you feel the third vibration, display will show "Bootloader version..."

- connect the jig to your watch and secure it so it will not move accidentally.

- connect the USB cable to your computer. Displaty will show "Transfer mode: USB Connected..."

- Launch a terminal session in your computer and issue the commands:



Code: fastboot boot boot.img

Code: md5 for boot.img: 5c0c7e885711d94e707dd7713fce0d57

When your device has finished rebooting, you can enter an ADB shell session and type "su", it should show " [email protected] " in the prompt.If you find something interesting about the workings of this method, please share!Big thank you to jcase and beaups, it wouldn't have been possible without their help!
