Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2650

I have the Watch DevPack. Unfortunately, the DevPack firmware files for the CC2650 tag are only available on iOS and not Android.

Is there anyway the devPack files could be posted here so I can check my boards. Thanks!

There are some information at processors.wiki.ti.com/.../Display_DevPack_User_Guide but no FW or source code available for Watch DevPack yet.

Thanks, but I already know about the page.

Looks like the iOS app has the firmwares for the devPacks built into it, but not the Android one. I'd be happy if TI just published those here for us to use the devPacks.
The devPacks are useless without the firmware unfortunately.

The built-in FW on iOS cannot work with Watch DevPack. We have to wait TI to release FW support for Watch DevPack. Fully agree with you that devPacks are useless without the firmware.

Despite what it says on the wiki for both the Watch and LED DevPacks, the iOS SensorTag app does not have a 'FW Download' option, and these DevPacks are still useless. Does anyone from TI watch these boards? Is there any reason there's no software available for boards that you're selling and shipping?

Just get my iOS SensorTag APP update and it can update FW for Watch DevPack. However, the source code is still not available.

Source code is available at processors.wiki.ti.com/.../CC26xx_LCD now.

YiKai,
The DevPack-LCD is also supported in Android I just found out. The problem was getting the FW with FEATURE_LCD in SensorTag compiled since there is no good documentation for guidance.

Yes, there is no good document for details about using watch DevPack. You have to study source code to know it better. It's just use SPI driver to make watch DevPack work.

YK,
Not sure that is correct I did not have to make any changes to the SPI driver to get the Watch to work. What do you see on the LCD
There should be somehting like

CC2650 SensorTag
0xA0E6............
FW rev. 1.20

17:23:20 (I turned on Time from Android)

Connected

Do you see this on the LCD?

And on Android you should see Display Control Services.
