TWRP 3.0.2 recovery port for X5+ and LEM5

Hi, i got stuck in the process of flashing the TWRP recovery port to my LEM5 with w618-170926 - then i messed something up and bricked it.

Here is what i did:
I downloaded the recovery-twrp-302-lem5-20170429 to the watch with SpFlashTool v5.1636.
After rebooting the watch touch was not working anymore, so i couldn’t allow USB debugging for adb. Even so in testing mode (by booting watch with pressed “down” button) there was no touch input.

In order to set it back, i then tried to flash the firmware w616-170111, that was said to be required in first post.

After that, the watch would not boot anymore - the display stays black and there is a faint beebing sound while pressing up or down button.

I disconnected the battery cable to be shure it is powered off and tried flashing w618-170306, w618-170327 and w618-170911, which yielded error message S_FT_ENABLE_DRAM_FAIL.

Is it possible, that the watch still can be flashed with FW 170927, when it becomes available for download, or is the problem likely to be somwhere else?

Any thoughts or hints would greatly be appreciated.


I had the same problem and I had to revive my watch with stock firmware. Following this steps may help you:
