This can not happen.

You make a couple of thinking mistakes here...

The APK is not the real app, there is no need for a new apk, the real Gear app is a widget(wgt) file, that runs on the gear watch (with Tizen os).

This app can only be downloaded from the Gear Apps store.

Which, for some reason, Samsung does not allow to be installed on Gear2 watches connected to a Canadian Note3.

The reason for that can only be given by Samsung, because I have not restricted any phone or country from using this app.

Like I said, I have also tried to ask them, but never got a useful reply.

And believe me, I also hate it that the app is so difficult to find for some users, but if you can't find a product in a shop, is it the shop owner to blame, or the product manufacturer?

I have read from users that had to reboot there watch and phone a couple of times before they could find the app. Ridiculous but it seemed to work in some cases.

The gear app is a "standalone" type gear app, it can run without a phone, so there is no need to test it with all kinds of galaxy devices, because they have no influence on the app. They only are required to be able to download and install the wgt in a user friendly way.

The gear wgt must be signed with a Samsung Distributor certificate, to be able to install/run it on a tizen gear watch.

My developer version is only signed with a developer certificate, and can only run on my own gear2 (for which the dev certificate was generated by samsung. Samsung does the distributor signing when publishing the gear app in the store.

So I can't send you the wgt.

The android apk is only a "convenience" app, that makes loading wstheme files a bit easier, because you don't have to copy the wstheme files manually over a usb cable to the watch. the android apk downoads the wstheme file for you and can install it on the watch directly.

The very first line of text in the description of the android app warns you that the apk is useless unless you own the Gear app too.

The order of installation is not important.

So, I suggest you try a couple of reboots or try to spoof another device that might be able to find the gear app.

Also it could be that after a while the app becomes available in canada too for the Note3.
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
ok fine, I understood you were saying I was not giving proper support, but that was my mistake. forget it.
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
The devices are totally irrelevant for this app, because the app runs standalone on the Gear2 watch (and the Gear1 with Tizen os.

My QA steps are fine.

You have to go to samsung with you frustration, they also frustrate me and many other Gear users.
[Samsung Gear 2] OGroteKoning:
Nah, your support is the last thing I would criticise. It's been good.
[Samsung Gear 2] RiverCity.45:
I'm a regular user running an unrooted Gear2/custom ROM Galaxy S4. I have no problem seeing the app in the Gear Manager app store. I was able to buy 2.2 and upgrade to 2.3.

Sent telepathically to my SM-T520

[MENTION=3231225]klwinkel[/MENTION] - Quick request. On the RGB tool, if you hold down on the slider "thumb", for too long, the G2 unsticks the clock from the page it is on, allowing you to move it. I'm having a heck of a hard time trying to get a specific set of RGB values in. Is there a way to get a + and - button on each of those sliders?

Thank you, sir!
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
Holding down is handled by the Tizen os itself as you experienced.

You can use the letters R G B on the left and the values on the right of a slider to substract or add 1 to the color value.

The font is pretty small, so it is depending on the thickness of your fingers how wel that works... ;)
[Samsung Gear 2] *wii360*:
Sorry for the ot, but I need a little help.

I can't update the multiwatch app. After press the Samsung apps in gear manager, it want to update, I agree the update and it shows me this error

Without the update I can't open the store.

Can someone help me? Please [emoji17]
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
maybe try again later? (just kidding)

try a reboot of both the phone and the watch and make sure they are paired while updating.
[Samsung Gear 2] *wii360*:
Thx for fast reply, I've Already reboot both, still the same error message.

No one with the same problem.

I'm thankful for all tips [emoji106][emoji4]

Klwinkel

Just letting you know someone has made a wearable widgets app for Gear 2. I would highly recommend that you add a weather option as this app could blow away all competition
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
Please explain, what is "a wearable widget app"?
[Samsung Gear 2] RiverCity.45:
I had a similar problem, and fixed it by reverting to an earlier custom ROM. With my custom Android 4.4 ROM, many apps would not install. When I went back to a custom Android 4.3 ROM, the problem went away. I have no idea why.
[Samsung Gear 2] djbrotherson:
A widget you take from your phone, any widget, custom created or not and it shows as the clock face on your Gear 2
[Samsung Gear 2] Jeshter2000:
Whats the app called...
[Samsung Gear 2] OGroteKoning:
Thanks for the tip. I will have to check out out! What is it called?
[Samsung Gear 2] RiverCity.45:
I did some poking around and found this information:

http://www.androidheadlines.com/2014/07/wearable-widgets-brings-widget-android-wear-device.html

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wearablewidgets

From the Play Store:

"On Android Wear & the Tizen-based Gear 2, our app doesn't yet support using a widget as a custom watchface. This is high on our to-do list, but there are a number of issues that we're still working through."

"Supports Android Wear and Sony SmartWatch 1 & 2; Samsung Gear (Tizen) is coming soon! "

So, not quite there yet for those of us using Gear 2.

Oh. The app is called Wearable Widgets.
[Samsung Gear 2] ipatemarian:
Help me !!!

Heloo Klwinkel !!

I purchased your application of Galaxy app store but do not found in app gear manager nor the galaxy gear 2 .use a notes 3 with galaxy gear 2 . It is virtually non-existent, I can't find it in the phone or in an watch. :crying:

Do you know what is the problem ?
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
Basically it is not a real app, so you will not find it in "apps" on the Gear.

Actually it is a "Clock", have you checked the list of Clocks on the Gear?
[Samsung Gear 2] ipatemarian:
Now working perfectly on gear 1 and gear 2 tizen.Reset gear 2 to factory settings ,installed again gear manager and now go perfectly. Thank you very much ,the application is super loud. :silly::good::good::good:

How do you start from scratch? I played with some watches from gearfaces but now when I select a new background I can't get rid of some of the elements from the gearface watch before it.

Appreciate the insights.
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
In Edit-Mode press the "R" button.
[Samsung Gear 2] jdubya45:
Ok so maybe this was answered but I cannot find it after searching so dont yell at me.

I am not using a sammy device but have gear manager and mult watch installed. I download a theme and cannot install. Saying pairing with the gear is not available. Can't go into edit mode either so it looks like multi watch may have not installed.

Anyone know how to get it to work?
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
Hi,

you mean you have the android Multi-Watch app installed?

well, take a good look at the first line of the description of that app.

it says you must have the gear app installed otherwise this app is useless.

when you are not using a Sammy device, you can not install the gear app from the "Gear app" store in the Gear manager.

unfortunately the gear part of the app can only be installed from that Samsung Apps sore, because it needs to be signed by samsung to be able to install it.

sorry, can't make it any better.
[Samsung Gear 2] FdeKlerk:
WHY!!

You know what!! It is absolutely F@K!NG impossible for me (Living in south africa) to download any app regarding the samsung gear!!!

No DEV has ever thought of also making the app available in my country!!!

I was so exited to use this app but no matter what i do, i can not get it!!

O and NO!! This tutorial on how to use vpn to select different country does not work!!

So please dev help me out...
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
Believe me, DEVs are NOT restricting any country for their apps, at least I haven't.

it is the Samsungs Apps store that is messing things up.

But you do see a "Gear apps" entry in your Gear Manager do you?

if so, can't you install any app from there?

You can try a complete Reset of the Gear to see if it makes a difference if you haven't tried that already.
[Samsung Gear 2] FdeKlerk:
Resetting gear and everything still not.

And yes i do have the app store that is located in the gear manager but all the apps in there is only clocks that have been there before any updates...

And updating the store, resetting watch enabling a vpn, clearing app data everything!!! Nothing works i can not find the multi watch app.
[Samsung Gear 2] vivi:
I use Note3 Exynos and Gear1. I didn't see Multi watch in Gear Manager so I changed build.prop to SPH-L900 for the multiwatch to appear in Gear Manager and I can buy it and use it for a few month.

But my Multi watch in Gear Manager still shows version 2.2.0 till today.

How to change my build.prop to see 2.3.x? What model of Samsung Mobile Phone show exactly the new Multi watch version?

OK. Got it.

I changed to SM-G900T and it works fine. Can upgrade to 2.3.

[Samsung Gear 2] rEVOLVE:
I think it's now a crucial feature - to expand the amount of available shortcuts that we can customize, because of all the new incoming and useful apps.

I've now found several apps that I want to have faster access to, and the great option of swiping up to see shortcuts is awesome if I could put more app shortcuts there instead of just 3 and the flashlight.

klwinkel - do you have a rough time frame of when we might see an expansion to this and how much extra icons we can add to the swipe -up shortcut panel? I hope we at least see a 3x3 grid (flashlight + 8 apps) - if you want to try a 4x4 - I'd be happy to be a guinea pig to help test that.
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
I will update it to 3x3 within the next two weeks, along with some other minor modifications, like 24h hourly chimes (optional), and improved font handling.
[Samsung Gear 2] rEVOLVE:
WOW! I can't wait - it's gonna be awesome.
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
Features for the next update (2.4.0):

- 3x3 app shortcut screen and option to remove a shortcut.

- multiple time periods for Hourly chime (7-23, 9-21 or 0-23)

- month and weekday names in English, French, Spanish, German and Dutch

- better custom font handling (no more font stroking)

[Samsung Gear 2] Sublim3_Tilt:
What are the chances you'll be able to integrate notifications and maybe get the Navigation prompts working like on the DMA Navi Watch Face? If you could set an option to use maybe the Top or Bottom half of the Gear for Notifications. Where incoming messages like Navigation prompts or even texts can be displayed?

Just a thought.... I want navigation but I'm not willing to give up Multi-Watch for just that feature. I know this is a stand alone app and doesn't have a partner app on the phone. I'm not sure if that's how the DMA Navi App does it but since the watch still displays notification without Multi-Watch needing a partner app on the phone, I wasn't sure if you could intercept them and re-display them. Keep up the good work!
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
In fact, the Multi-Watch Gear app does have a partner app already, it is in the Normal Google Play store.

The only data it sends to the Multi-Watch Gear app is wstheme files at the moment.

I could make a new android app that connects with the Multi-Watch and sends other data, like navigation data, to the Gear.

I'm not very familiar yet with the Maps navigation api, so it would take me some time to develop.

But most watch faces are using the full screen, there is no space left for navigation data..... Unless you write it simply on top of the watch face.
[Samsung Gear 2] Sublim3_Tilt:
Yeah, the idea I had was since you made it so we can Save a Load faces. Create a simple Time and Date on the top half with Navigation/Notification prompts on the bottom. I would only load this face when I was planning on running or stepping into a meeting. Once I was done I would Load my normal watch face. Give it a shot and let me know. Really I am just being lazy/cheap cuz I could just get the watch face already working LoL :D
[Samsung Gear 2] rEVOLVE:
This is also what I was planning to do if we ever got the ability to add next appointment and weather forecast to a watch face. Designing some watch faces like this for business use that we can swap in and out of makes sense and proves the potential flexibility for this app. Not all watchfaces actually have to look like a watch with hands and dials.
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
btw, new update 2.4.0 is currently under test confirmation.....
[Samsung Gear 2] fcjr77:
What have you added in the new update? I have recently been having issues with faces loading from the app on my Gear 2 Neo directly. I will click on the watch face I want to install and sometimes it shows as if it is loading but it will not change it and will leave the one that is already is there. I have to change to another clock and then go back to the Multi watch for it to work. Yet, when I change it from the phone it works fine every time. Great work by the way.
[Samsung Gear 2] gdanonym:
I tried it with tasker to intercept the Google Maps Navigation. It's pretty easy to do, because the Maps also creates notifications with the directions. So the only thing you have to do is to intercept this and send the text to the app and display it there.

For Tasker you will need AutoNotification to handle the intercept and get the title and text from the notification.

But if you are thinking about this, please also add a vibration on 50m and 500meter before a turn.
[Samsung Gear 2] leojab:

I get the 2.4 update thanks...

But in German language need to fix.

Then

Mi. 6. August

Please pm me if I can fix it for German language.
[Samsung Gear 2] samjunctio:
Feature request for v2.5

Hello,

If possible can you add option to say the time for hourly chimes.
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
Nice idea, never thought of that.

I think tts is not available on tizen (not sure about that), but I could add some audio fragments to play, same as the chimes do, but then a different one for each hour.

Need to find copyright free audio time fragments...

Or find a decent voice to make them.
[Samsung Gear 2] rEVOLVE:
I just got the latest update today. The short date format as I requested is not there yet. Somehow the closest is "Thu 7 aug" which I'll use for now, but rather would see:

"Thu 7", "Fri 8" , "Sat 9", "Sun 10". That's all I need is day and date while leaving month off - please consider adding that when you have time.

If you're going to leave the month in, then at least capitalize the first letter as that's awkward/incorrect in English. To do that properly it should be "Thu 7 Aug" instead.

Also you should notice that Wearable Widgets has put out there Beta for our watch. I was able to do this one this morning, which is what some of us have been requesting for you to do- add weather forecast. Here's an example of what it looks like:

[IMG="Wearable Widget"]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/6579574/hostimages/P8062728.JPG[/IMG]

I'll stick to Multi-Watch because of the awesome 3x3 launcher panel you implemented - that's too convenient a feature to miss out on.
[Samsung Gear 2] djbrotherson:
I'm using Wearable Widgets too. Its nice to have the weather showing. I just put it as one of my shortcuts. If weather were added to Multi-Watch, I'd probably not even use it as it would be the best absolute, complete clock face app for Gear 2

Additionally I wanted to mention that I also found the date a bit off. The month should be capitolized and the digit should be ahead of the month if its supposed to be in English
[Samsung Gear 2] rEVOLVE:
To tell the truth, I'd rather have next appointment displayed over weather, but I know a lot of people want the weather as well. I imagine a watch face that's similar to what I posted w/ the row of weather icons on the bottom, but instead of the big weather image in the middle, just having next appointment would be what I've been hoping for all this time. That's the setup I prefer on my workdays since using my Metawatch Frame and my Pebble smartwatches - and one I've never been able to achieve on my Gear 2 Neo.

Yes, once those features are implemented I would consider Multi-Watch to be the ultimate watch face manager on the Gear 2 platform. Klwinkel could release a new version with all of these features, name it Ulti-Watch (ultimate-watch!) and even charge $5.00 for it and it would still be a fair price with all of the features and usability it grants - as that really would be a premium/pro version.

BT and Battery icons

The way to have that is to Load your watch face file on Watch Styler app (on your phone). Edit it and add BT and Battery icon if you wish. Save the new file. The use it in Multi-Watch.

Note: Does not always work perfectly.
[Samsung Gear 2] JimSmith94:
The watch faces I use with Multi-Watch are .wstheme files that I have downloaded from gearfaces.com with the Multi-Watch phone app, but Watch Styler doesn't find them on my phone. How can I get Watch Styler to find them so that I can edit them?
[Samsung Gear 2] rogerioteo:
Multi-Watch and Watch Styler does not work on my phone.

I use a Galaxy Core Plus SM-3502T I installed Gear Manager by APK file.

Both Apps don´t connect with the Gear Manager .

Any Suggestion?
[Samsung Gear 2] renegade:
I also do the same as you and the files are usually saved in "Download" folder on internal storage and WS finds them.
[Samsung Gear 2] gdanonym:
Yes I already used it this way. Started with watch styler to make a base with battery, Bluetooth and analog plate.

Edited the wstheme images and replace the Bluetooth with my own image. Took the pointers from another watchface and made the wstheme file again.

Imported this in multi watch and added the date.

But it's a hassle to use 2 apps for this.
[Samsung Gear 2] JimSmith94:
Thanks, apparently it's a problem with this particular Roley Submariner watch face: http://gearfaces.com/?p=7749 Once I read the comments, others have reported that they can't load it in Watch Styler either.
