Cannot find Multi-Watch in Samsung Gear Apps Store

I have VZW Note 2 and that was running rooted N3bula Rom. I had it paired up to my Gear 1 (Tinzen) and I was able to d/l Multi-Watch and Watch-Styler. I had to change Roms due to some problems I was experiencing and switched over to Trents Rom. I have my Gear 1 connect to my phone on this new Rom (Trents) but I cant get Multi-Watch to appear on the Gear Apps store. I made changes to build.prop file manually "No Go" I downloaded Device spoofer from Google Play store and "No Go" can't seem to figure what is wrong, all other apps and clocks appear but not Multi-Watch. I cant figure this out. I can D/L Watch-Styler but to be quite honest Multi-Watch is my FAV. I read multiple threads on this but can't find the method that would fix this issue I am having.

I would appreciate some assistance.

Device: VZW SCH-i605

Rom: TrentS5 4.3

Galaxy Gear: Gear 1 (Tinzen)
[Samsung Gear 2] Billy-X:
i've the same problem

can't find multi-watch in samsung apps tore..... i paid for it :(
[Samsung Gear 2] noellenchris:
Change your build.prop on your phone to SM-G900F and reboot. Then try again. I have Note 3 and I also change mine to that as it's an S5 and for some reason I can see and install Multi-Watch.

Chris
[Samsung Gear 2] Blanco954:
Yes that did the trick, I was at my wits end with this issue. I thought I would have to change ROMs. For those that are having similar problem you can spoof your phone with the app on play market called device spoofer make sure you back up your build.prop settings so you can revert back. Follow the directions find the model on the device database list (FYI be prepared to scrool long list of models) that Chris posted and make the switch. Once your phone takes new settings reboot and go about visiting the Gear Apps Market through Gear Manager. You will see the Multi-Watch App plus others that are not made available due to device restrictions that you can now download to phone/gear.

Credit to noellenchris for the suggestion & tip!!!!!

nice work :good:

Well deserved! Excellent app, already my #1 must have for my Gear. Thanks for your brilliant work.

[Samsung Gear 2] leojab:
Congratulations klwinkel!!!! A well deserved reward..

Hope to see many more updates on multi watch and other apps
[Samsung Gear 2] Sublim3_Tilt:
Absolutely, Well deserved! This is the first app I install everytime I change ROMs and re-sync my Gear2. Keep up the good work!

[Samsung Gear 2] OpenMind_NL:
Well, it looks like [MENTION=3231225]klwinkel[/MENTION] has left for Silicon Valley already :D

Error 666...... Where did you get the apk from?
[Samsung Gear 2] itzikkal:
error 666 on gear 2

got it from the samsung app store . i bot it.

i try to reinstall in on the gear 2 and on the galaxy but no luck

i try to reset the gear to factory settings - no luck

its start to show the error only in the last few days .. till then its was working great i didnt do anything to affect the app

seems like there a connection problam (bt)

this is photo of the error :
[Samsung Gear 2] OpenMind_NL:
Nice!

About your Android MultiWatch tool...

It shows the themes from gearfaces.com... nice... but I think it should not include the Tizen Widgets ;)
[Samsung Gear 2] itzikkal:
any help !??

any help [MENTION=3231225]klwinkel[/MENTION] ?? :confused:
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
you did not buy it from the galaxy apps store, this app is only in the normal Google Play Store,

error 666 means it is unlicensed (not paid for), at least not for the google account currently used in your google play store.
[Samsung Gear 2] RiverCity.45:
Woops. ?
[Samsung Gear 2] itzikkal:
why you are asying that i didnt bot it ??

i bot this app ... one in the google play store (resipe is attched) and one in the gear app manger (date of buying on the 1/7/14) .. i bot it all !!!!

how you can say that i didnt bot it ????

i told you that the app was working great till its stops to send the **.wstheme file to the gear 2 via bt !!

hope you can help me to fix that
[Samsung Gear 2] JimSmith94:
Most of the .wstheme files I've sent work fine, but there have been a few that wouldn't send, but I assumed it was a problem with the file. I don't see how that could cause a 666 error though. Do you have one problem or two?
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
What does the Google Play Store say for this app, does it show "purchased"?

Have you tried re-installing the app (only the android app I mean)?

have you changed to another google account since july 1?
[Samsung Gear 2] fcjr77:
I love the app, but I a running into a few issues. First, when I click to load the faces directly from the phone only part of the theme loads or sometimes it doesn't load at all and keeps the same face I am already displaying. Second, one of the hands disappear on the watch faces just out of the blue. Sometimes it is the minute hand and sometimes it is the hour hand. I don't know if anyone else is experiencing these issues. Other than that it works great. Thanks.
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
Does it happen for particular wstheme files, or random?

if it happens for particular ones, can you tell me which one, or upload it here maybe.

Does it also happen if you load the theme on the gear directly?

Can you estimate how many wstheme files you have on the gear at the moment?

I heared from a user that ran into simular problems after loading 100+ wsthemes.
[Samsung Gear 2] JimSmith94:
Most of the time this Roley Submariner only loads the hands: http://gearfaces.com/?p=7749

Once in a while this Rolex Submariner 2.0 does the same: http://gearfaces.com/?p=9485

I can't get the Roley Submariner to load in Watch Styler either, in case that is related.

[Samsung Gear 2] cczupich:
How are people already using this app? I would love to have the app as well.
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
The app is waiting for Samsung approval.
[Samsung Gear 2] ash99:
How long did it take for you to get feedback when you last submitted it?
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
The first rejection came after 2-3 days (there were copyright images in the app, like company logo's form ferrari, lambo ...)

Now it has been quiet for 4 days, but there was a weekend in between. Time goes slow when you're waiting....

I have another app waiting for approval too (minor update and changed from paid to free), also been quiet since May-3.

See also attached image of the progress of the Multi-Watch app Certification process.

I'm expecting new response now soon.

But once approved, we will go into the next approval phase, for the new update with the theme selection, probably more waiting....

Google normally publishes a new app (android) within 2-3 hours worldwide, with Apple it also can take weeks to get an app approved,

WP8 somewhere in between them, about a week, but only had to do that once for WP8 until now.
[Samsung Gear 2] EVOme:
I am impatiently waiting....lol
[Samsung Gear 2] BigDanInTX:
I've been refreshing the App store every morning, hoping it would be there...lol
[Samsung Gear 2] admiral70:
Any chance of side loading this app? Also, if Samsung approves will it be seen in Neo as well?
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
It will be seen on Neo, I'm testing on Neo myself.
[Samsung Gear 2] EVOme:
Your site says the digital faces don't work. Is that still accurate? I'd hate to waste time searching through them if I can't use once your app is approved.
[Samsung Gear 2] BigDanInTX:
I am 99% confident this will be a paid-for app and he is justified in charging for it. We'll just have to wait for the customizable goodness to be approved. ;-]
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
You're correct.

The introduction price will only be $1 for the first period.

But I will continue to work on it if it becomes a success, and will make the digital faces work too then.
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
I will continue to work on it if it becomes a success, and will make the digital faces work too then.
[Samsung Gear 2] admiral70:
Will this be in Samsung apps or Gear apps?
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
I'm not sure, isn't Gear apps just a category inside Samsung Apps?

It is a stand-alone Gear2 app, it will be in the same place as the SimpleCalc app.
[Samsung Gear 2] henklbr:
Samsung Apps in Gear Manager ;)
[Samsung Gear 2] djbrotherson:
Was wondering if your app will allow the weather to be added? I'm really curious as to why there are no watch faces with that ability in the app store
[Samsung Gear 2] andur:
I think because the SDK comes with the watch face done as example. The developers only need to change the background or style to make a new one.
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
Mine is a little bit more then that, it allows you to edit various layout properties at the watch itself and load wstheme files (in version 2.0)

I am experimenting with the healthinfo at the moment, showing the pedometer value at the watch face.

I might include it in version 2.0 if it works well.

Weather info is not available on the watch itself, the Gear would have to communicate with the phone to get that info, probably even with SWeather, from which I don't know if the api is publicly available....

Eventually, there will be watch faces with weather info on it, developers will develop their own android apps providing the info to the gear, like any other info that you would like to see on the Gear.

I think there is already a thread to post developer ideas, maybe some dev picks it up...
[Samsung Gear 2] Assimilated1:
Multi-Watch is on Samsung Apps! Works great!!! :laugh:
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
Yes, just got an email confirming certification by samsung.

Remember, this is version 1.0 which does not have the theme selection yet.

I am "out-of-office" for the next 8 hours, but I will try to upload version 2.0 for certification later today.the the real fun starts.
[Samsung Gear 2] Qwallace70129:
I just bought it. Don't have any photos on my neo yet. But I have to support your work. You have been one of the founding fathers so to speak. Thank you for all your knowledge and help
[Samsung Gear 2] mrmrmrmr:
just got the app. it is a good start, but has a some space to develop.

For example, the battery indicator is not really nice. I would like to have ability to customize it.

Also, when do you plan to add import feature for wstheme files ?

Thx.
[Samsung Gear 2] ex-28:
just made the purchas with what was left on my gift vanilla mastercard , dang I wish paypal was an option on here. thanks again
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
Yes, its a start. Version 2.0 is ready for upload:

New features in 2.0:

- import of wstheme files

- pedometer value (total steps & distance)

- date as day+month

Removed features in 2.0:

- buildin watch faces.
[Samsung Gear 2] mrmrmrmr:
when shall we see the v2 on store ?

thanks.
[Samsung Gear 2] code72:
Just bought your app to support your work. When 2.0 version is ready can we upgrade free of charge?
[Samsung Gear 2] pinobrid:
Just bought it for my Gear 2 Neo and it works !! Great job, keep work on it ! I can't wait for the ver. 2.0 !!!

Hey gerrit. Would live to see the ability to change the second hand image . Example: have the helmet tick around for the seconds. Much smaller then the background image

Thanks for all the hard work, man!
[Samsung Gear 2] rhonda69:
Just bought looks great will try out later when i have a little more time. Hope we see ver 2 soon

Thanks
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
Normally 7 business days after I upload it.

I am planning to upload it coming Sunday evening, that gives me some time to maybe include some minor suggestions that come-up

after this first 1.0 version.
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
I can do that.

If the name of the image (when selecting personal background, upper-left.) contains "SEC_PART" in the name, I will automatically set it as the second hand.

Be aware that you need to make an image smaller then 320x320, and use transparent color if required.

The second hand is the top layer part, it will cover all other part.....
[Samsung Gear 2] EVOme:
Just bought...cant wait to try.

Thanks for this!
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
Updates are always free of charge, you're lucky you bought it for the $1 introduction price ;)

I will increase the price after some time, but that will only affect new buyers.
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
for a start, I made it a little smaller for the next version.

what customization are you thinking of? please suggest.

Some ws watches doalready have there own custom battery indicator, like the Tag Heuer.

this doesn't work yet (also not in version 2.0), But I will implement that in the future. for that I need to interpret the json that

is in the wstheme.
[Samsung Gear 2] BigDanInTX:
Where does it look for backgrounds (top left option)? I want to make sure and put some that I like in there. Right now, it picks up a couple of the Gear Faces backgrounds and some hand images and that's it. Also, once I know where the images are being picked up from, how do I get them there? I guess just the command line interface still? What command(s)?

Thanks!
[Samsung Gear 2] admiral70:
I downloaded some clocks from gearfaces and transferred to my device. Not seeing where I can change the newly purchased multi-watch app to the new clocks. Is that not on the version?
[Samsung Gear 2] EVOme:
I was about to ask this....My bottom left icon is not the one shown in the video here.....

It starts the Gallery app to pick an image, so basically it will check all directories for images I think.

but best to put them in the "Images" directory.

just connect your gear with a usb cable to your computer and use explorer to view/copy files to/from it.

for version 2.0 you can copy complete .wstheme file in the "Downloads" directory
[Samsung Gear 2] EVOme:
Got it....thanks!
[Samsung Gear 2] admiral70:
What size images look good on the Neo? I thought they were 320x320 but they seem slightly distorted.

I hope to create a digital clock with specific colors.

Add background of my choice - can do now.

add day and date

love to add my calendar events for the day

perhaps add weather

yes in other words combine some of the stock digital to make one with a custom background.

This app is worth the $1 I paid out of the box and look forward to watching it mature.
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
I can imagine there some mis-understanding about the functionality in the current version.

What you see at the moment is version 1.0. (see also op)

S. took quite some time to approve the app, so it is a version of ~2 weeks ago.

The bottom-middle will select one of the build-in background images, which used to be nice watch faces, but caused

the app to be rejected by S. So I had to replace them by some boring images (except for the R1 :good:)

this feature will be removed in the next version.

In the mean time I have continued working on it, and added wstheme file import and some other stuff.

this will be in version 2.0, which I will upload next Sunday, and on average will take 7 business days to be approved...

but hopefully quicker this time.

If I find the time, I will make a nice and clear op for this Thread.
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
Correct, for the gear, images should be 320x320.

If you open up a .wstheme file, you will find them with name BG_PART.png

But don't spend too much time on it, the next version can read wstheme files directly.
[Samsung Gear 2] ex-28:
hmm any possible way yet to have a code in multi-watch to check if the app was purchased ? , then it woudl allow an install or something so you could release new versions and we could load them up before there on the ss app store .

just wondering if any way or possible to like beta test new releases without having to wait a week between updates , I know its on ss end not yours that causes the wait time.
[Samsung Gear 2] JimSmith94:
I'm trying to buy this with PayPal and getting this error: "Server error occurred. (Error: S2000/P/56AJY)". The last set of numbers changes with every try, but is anyone else getting this or recognize what this error is? Google is no help for this one.
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
Runtime checking for purchase (like in android apps) is not an option, the app has no counterpart on the phone to check it for him and even then, I don't know if Samsung Apps store has an api for it.

S. promises after 10 valid certifications, that they allow new updates within ONE day.

that is if I understand them correctly:

[Notification]

Most of developers agree that the best way to get fast testing result is through self testing before submitting an application to store.

For the sellers who pass 10 consecutive certification, their application will be distributed within ONE day if it complies with the below conditions:

- New applications only, not including applications having the same framework just by changing passive content like font, theme, eBook, or series applications.

- Mandatory submission of "Self checklist" to apply the "Trusted Seller Program”.

(http://developer.samsung.com/distribute/app-certification/self-check-list)

Constraint: This program is applicable to the new application submitted since Sep. 11, 2013.

besides that, too many updates too fast can irritate users....
[Samsung Gear 2] FactionM:
Thanks Great Work i have buy it, im lucky to see v 2.0 :)
[Samsung Gear 2] Marne Jr:
+1... Battery style could be better...
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
I could add the option to add a (fake) top-bar as on your phone...

[Samsung Gear 2] djbrotherson:
Honestly I'd expect that API permission would be available to devs off the bat considering the Tizen App challenge. Is Samsung disallowing apps that are similar in functionality to their proprietary ones? What gives?
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
Its not a matter of permission, its just not described or available at all. I haven't checked, so I am not sure.

You would need to develop the phone counterpart too, to get this kind of functionality on the gear2.
[Samsung Gear 2] djbrotherson:
If you made that, I'd would gladly pay handsomely for it cuz nobody is making anything like that atm
[Samsung Gear 2] ex-28:
is it even possible to use PayPal as payment to Samsung apps , when I made the purchase there was no option for PayPal
[Samsung Gear 2] JimSmith94:
PayPal and credit card both show up as options for me. I still can't get PayPal to work so I bought this with my credit card instead.
[Samsung Gear 2] BigDanInTX:
In regards to battery style, a subtle indicator would be ideal. Something that looks like an LCD cutout with boxes that disappear when the percentage goes down? Say something like 110 pixels wide by about 22? 10 boxes 10 pixels wide, 20 pixels tall, pixel in between each. As you drop to 80, you'd have 8 boxes left, etc. Just my $.02
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
I have added a phone-style topbar for version 2.0 (as an option to switch on/off).

colors are fixed, black background, light details, battery=red if level < 14%

watch face slightly loses its square aspect ratio..
[Samsung Gear 2] primo523:
I like that. Looks more like Android

Sent from my SPH-L720 using JellyBombed Tapatalk 2
[Samsung Gear 2] pinobrid:
For the battery would be really nice a square border that is full colored (green) when battery is fully charged and disappearing by time depending of discharging %. Or can be a circle around the hours dots changing colo r depending on battery charge !

Looking at the nice job you made on version 1.0 that I bought yesterday, everything you'll do with the battery bar will be nice ;)

Keep going on ... we are all waiting for version 2 and over ... over ... !!!
[Samsung Gear 2] henklbr:
Is it necessary to have the time in the statusbar too?

You have already an analogue or digital time already! ;)

Maybe you could place there the BlueTooth indicator?
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
I added the time to make it look like an android status bar.

you could leave the digital time out when you use this topbar.

I still can't figure out out to get the BT status, there is no simple api call I can make to get the status connected/disconnected.

Is it really important to see the BT status?
[Samsung Gear 2] Marne Jr:
And what about toggles?

Like a Bluetooth icon that turns on and off when you touch it...

Another suggestion...

I have had a annoying problem with Gear2...

When I turn on the option to have display automatically on when shake my arm my battery just lasts for about 16 hours... When I turn this option off my battery lasts for about 48 hours...

Maybe if we could just activate and disactivate this option from a icon toggle on watch main screen we could have the best from both worlds...

Don't know if it is possible, just wondering...

Anyway this Multi watch app is amazing and probably will be a best seller!!

Tnx again.

[Samsung Gear 2] primo523:
For me blutooth is just esthetics. When blutooth connects or disconnects the watch beeps or vibrates. So you know when it's on/off. Not that important to me

Nice!

Just bought it yesterday and it works great. Ready for V2.0!:good:
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
I think this is the last feature for version 2.0, a semi transparent status bar, so the watch face stays in proportion.

its optional, you can switch it on or off.

sorry for the bad image quality, I still haven't found a way to make a screenshot on the real device, and the Emulator doesn't allow me to put wstheme files on it.

Tomorrow I will publish the 2.0 version, before the start of a new Samsung Korean working week..... Hope they approve before next friday.

Or maybe moving down the top bar like Android...

Or even by enabling double touch on home button to get this option on and off....
[Samsung Gear 2] mrmrmrmr:
that is...

coool !

---------- Post added at 02:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:09 AM ----------

that is Great !!!

I can't wait for the v2. And I like the idea of digital clock on the status bar. it looks like Android, and keeping a digital clock is always nice when the main clock is analog.

Btw, I wonder something about wstheme files;

When I use wstheme files with Watch Styler, the digital clocks like Kisai V2 are corrupted.

Shall we have the same problem with Multi-Watch V2 ?

Thx.
