LG G Watch is one of the smallest Android devices but it has not skipped in the hands of advanced Android users and modders been trying to add more fun by tweaking the inner Android ecosystem. Recently, you might get surprised that the TWRP recovery has now been tested and also worked on LG G watch, thought it wasn't yet highly optimized for a smaller screen but at-least at the end there is a custom recovery installed in the device that allows users install ROMs.
On the video below is the TWRP recovery has put in action and as you can clearly see that it's perfectly working using the stylus pen. It's amazingly fun seeing the TWRP recovery in a tiny screen.
You can manually grab the TWRP recovery for LG Watch at Team Win's page and there is a new changelog going on at this moment. Just make sure to hit the source links below for the detailed step by step guide on how to install it but then again just be careful while you are into tweaking your precious device.
New Changelog as of this post on version 2.7.1.0:
-Add GUI option to change or repair file systems on individual partitions. The change is destructive so backup your data including internal sdcard first. This option should make it a little easier to migrate a device from ext4 -> f2fs, for instance. You will find this option under Wipe -> Advanced Wipe, then select only one partition and then press the Repair or Change File System button. If a developer has added f2fs support for your device and we don't have it in TWRP, please contact me via PM to arrange for it to be added.
-Various bugfixes to backup and restore
-Improvements to USB storage handling
-Added a class to search for files to make finding the correct brightness file automatic in most cases
-Various other bugfixes and tweaks
