Hi,

How would I port Android Wear onto a smartwatch? Where can I find specifically the Android Wear Marshmallow code? Also, how do I combine the hardware drivers with the source code?

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Android Wear is (in part) proprietary code, not open source. If you have access to it, look for Emerald release, which is based on Marshmallow.

Does the AOSP site have a link to the code? I found this website: https://android.googlesource.com/platform/build/+refs, from the Google Git. Or do I have to contact Android Partnership to get the code?

I do not think you will find a link to the code. You should probably contact Android Partnership.

Please send inquiries about licensing Google Mobile Services through the GMS contact form. Other non-GMS partnership inquiries can be sent to android-pa...@google.com

Hopefully somebody with more info will reply here.

Note from one of the volunteer moderators ...

Please note that this thread is starting to veer off-topic.

The android-porting group is for discussion of porting the AOSP source code distribution to non-AOSP-supported build targets.
