Yes I'm using Hassan Rom and everything has been working fine for a while now. I installed the Multi-watch on my phone from the play store and it was fine. Then I tried to install the Multi-watch from the samsung store and it gave me that error. Phone disconnected from the watch and now it doesn't want to connect :(

I have deleted the Bluetooth connection, reset the phone, cleared all my data on each application on my phone that has anything to do with gear manager but still nothing so far :(

I'm using Gear Manager Version 2.1.14062401
[Samsung Gear 2] ArnomaF:
Hello htc0101, and all the over with this problem,

I had the same problem and I have hopefuly a simple solution (if you have root).

You only have to mask your phone as an S3 via build.prop manual or using the app: Device spoofer

After booting you have a new category Finance and more apps including the desired.

I dont have an answer why the companies making people crazy with such a crap.

Was the same sh... in play store using diffrent dpi.
[Samsung Gear 2] Sublim3_Tilt:
I recall reading previous posts about users not getting the Pedometer to work. What I don't recall is reading a solution for this. I recently setup a watch face with the pedometer option (second screen, upper right corner). It stays at 0 even though the Pedometer app is working fine. I have reboot the watch and reconnected multiple times. I will see what it does after it resets at midnight but if someone has seen this and know how to kick start it let me know.

Scratch That! FYI

Open Gear Manager from the phone and change the Clock to a default one and back. It didn't work for me the first time but it worked the second so you might try it a few times!
[Samsung Gear 2] jgristwood:
It won't be in the Gear Manager. It's in clocks. On the watch, go into settings.. clocks.. MultiWatch. Hope that helps.

---------- Post added at 11:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:33 PM ----------

That was my problem too.. 2.1 is not made to work with the Android app. Also, the app is not really in the Gear Manager apps. You can see it by going into Home Screen Styler.. Clocks though.
[Samsung Gear 2] RiverCity.45:
I love this app and the accompanying phone app for obtaining new clock faces and sending them to the Gear 2. I noticed that none of them include the appointments from my calendar, as one of the stock faces does. I'm assuming it must be too difficult, or someone other than Samsung would have created them.

Sent telepathically to my Galaxy S4
[Samsung Gear 2] RenVilo:
Hope I did check if it's in the clocks and wasn't there as well. But yea bigger problem now is my phone and gear 2 doesn't even connect anymore :( My LG G2 connects to the Gear 2 lol. WTF... I uninstalled ALL gear manager services on the S4 and installed the Gear Manager again but still nothing. It does the pair and then just sits on the connecting screen and eventually the phone gives an timeout error :( Any idea on what I can do? Don't want to reset the phone
[Samsung Gear 2] lamecus:
No it's not there...believe it :eek:
[Samsung Gear 2] RenVilo:
anyone know what I can do just to get my gear 2 connected to my phone again :( When I pair the phone to the watch and say "ok" on both then the phone shows me the Samsung Gear Manager Connecting to gear screen. After a while it just stops and shows me a small box with the error "Gear Disconnected out of range of mobile device" and that's it :(

I even tried doing the "Fix "Galaxy Gear Connecting" forever: (This is a known bug for the Nexus 5)" in this link but no luck :(

[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
just keep trying and rebooting a few more times.

my experience (not with S5) is that suddenly it might pair again.
[Samsung Gear 2] nrseife:
Great app, just purchased it!

Any chance

1) weekday (3 letters) can be added to date?

2) more font size options for the date

3) option to add bluetooth status left upper corner?

Thanks - keep up the good work!
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
Version 2.3 was rejected by Samsung, because the gear did not follow the phone timezone changes and for hanging when loading theme preview images.

Both issues solved and uploaded new update for approval.

For the slide-up gesture on the watch face, you can now configure 3 shortcuts to your favorite apps. (shortcut to flashlight is fixed)

lets wait another week for approval........

Here a new preview video:

Preview video Multi-Watch version 2.3

[Samsung Gear 2] rEVOLVE:
AWESOME!!! How can I donate more $? App is just getting better and better and I like supporting you.

Some issuesrequests:

When I'm just showing the top info bar, I can't seem to get pedometer to show miles instead of km. It will toggle if I set the actual single entry of pedometer, but when I try to hide that and just use the ped on the top bar it will stay as km.

Can the top bar be set to "pedometer-battery-date" instead of "pedometer-battery-time"? It's redundant to have digital time and a dial with hands so I'd rather have date there.

I see date as "Tuesday 1 Juli" in the video. Is it possible to have compact format of just "Tue 1"?

Would still like to see some option to indicate the hourly chime state.

Please consider making the shortcut panel 3x3 icon grid besides 2x2.

[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
it is a wgt, not an apk :highfive:
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
1) it is in the status bar, but not yet in the other date setting, will try to add it.

2) done that in next version 2.3

3) together with the battery you mean?
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
Pedometer in Miles is fixed in the next update 2.3 (if our S. friends don't find another silly problem to reject the app for...)

I'll think about the pedo + batt + date in the topbar.

3x3 icon grid for app shortcuts should be a problem technically ofcourse. I'll think about it..

btw, I have increased the price for the app, I think it has become much more then a clock, for which also sometimes $1 is asked for.

For people who have already bought it, there will ofcourse be no extra charge.
[Samsung Gear 2] Sublim3_Tilt:
I am actually still having difficulty with the Pedometer. I have to switch from Multi-Watch to a stock one and back to kick start the counter. It remains working until I reboot the watch. Do anyone have this problem as well?
[Samsung Gear 2] OGroteKoning:
Purchased the app in the Play Store again. The installation option is very useful. I have a few suggestions (I have a S5 and a Gear 2)

1. An option to select and keep an installation folder. Currently it goes to downloads. I have moved all the files

2. Functionality to manage the downloaded themes. (Delete/rename/etc.)

3. In the Installation directory, screenshots of the theme. I can't remember what all the themes look like.

4. Sync between the phone and the Gear or file management of the Gear from the phone. When I don't like a downloaded theme and delete it on my phone, it still resides on the Gear.

5. A theme creating/editing tool on the phone - the Gear screen is sooooooo small for creating themes or even adjusting the current theme.

If I think of other useful additions, I will mention them later.
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
please wait for version 2.3 it is under certification by Samsung at the moment
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
Ok, thank you for the suggestions, I will take them into account for future updates
[Samsung Gear 2] leojab:
I love the fact that I can edit my themes on the watch itself.. seems to be a new hobby now.. different occasions edit and save ;)\

How is the progress going on the new app update release. Hope its soon
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
I hope too, it was rejected for some minor issues (complete random and depending on who is testing).

it is now "under device test".

If it gets approved this time I'll expect it late this week or next week.
[Samsung Gear 2] BigDanInTX:
Still totally worth it. I'd buy it again...
[Samsung Gear 2] djbrotherson:
Hey, just asking for a feature request and that would be the ability to add the weather. Another clock face has come out in the store that has this ability called "Notifications Clock"
[Samsung Gear 2] leojab:
Leo Cricket Watch Face

My first try on the watch face .. A cricket themed clock for gear.

Wicket keeper is at 12 o'clock and fielders all around.

Runs fine on Multi-Watch :good:

Let me know your feedback on where it can be improved.

Enjoy :D

PS: remove the .zip extension in the end of the file name before transferring to Gear 2 download folder.

Also purchased phone app works well also

Thanks
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
New update 2.3 has been accepted by Samsung.

Hopefully available for download within the next 24 hours.

Be aware that in the Samsung apps store it sometimes appears as if you have to purchase it again.

This is not the case. If you purchased the app once, all updates will be for free if you use the same account to update.

Edit: It is up for download/sale.
[Samsung Gear 2] leojab:
Great update to v2.3... Flash light and app launch are wonderful features.. Bluetooth connect / disconnect working.. :good
[Samsung Gear 2] tradlos:
Really great update 2.3 - I love it! ( launcher, previews, flash light and more numbers of watchfaces can be saved)

I made some small observations during my initial testing (in my case on Gear 2 I had to reboot to get it work, was not possible to select it otherwise)

Changed - see comment below [[It seems like the correct fonts are not loading after saving within Multiwatch (I have tested on e.g Squaresuunto24, Sunrise, NiconDictator). First I thougth it was earlier savings that missed something and needed a resaving with this 2.3 version. When I loaded NiconDictator theme from downloaded folder it first loaded correct with fonts. Then I saved it, switched to another watchface and then back again but this time it was another font displayed. Tried it on some other themes also and got the same behavoiur. I also noticed that date and days within some wsttheme files not always shows probably due to the same reason. Lets see if this a problem for others or just on my Gear 2. ]]

--> Sorry but now after a bit more time trying - I think I found it working - you need to reload the wsttheme for previously saved watchfaces that was saved within Multiwatch with earlier version (I used 2.2) and then resave them and then the fonts seems to be loading correct.

Problems to launch S Voice from app launcher (not important for me but I tried it on one of my saved watches and it didnt work)

One UI thing concering going back from launcher to watchface (if not starting an app), I tried using swipe down from top (like exiting from a level used in other Tizen apps) but it seems that I shall use swipe up from bottom. Perhaps not possible to use swipe down, just wondering?

Gerrit you have made great work and I hope there will be more coming!
[Samsung Gear 2] leojab:
Any one facing faster battery drain issue in the new update ? Just want to check whether it is a localized issue
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
There seems to be a font issue after rebooting the watch.

when you don't reboot the watch, the fonts of the "saved" watchfaces seem to keep working, but after a reboot of the watch, it looks

as if the fonts are not loaded properly, at least for watchfaces using multiple fonts.

I will investigate it.

swipe-down was not possible, it seems to be "catched" by the watch itself.

I could only use it if you start the swipe within the screen, but it should also work if you swipe-down from the edge of the screen.

EDIT: Found the problem with the fonts after a watch reboot, will fix it asap.

try to charge your watch before it completely runs down on battery, to prevent this from happening.
[Samsung Gear 2] tradlos:
I just have a few suggestions for further development:

- Localisation support (days and month in local languages)

- Add switching of saved watchfaces an easier / quicker way (by e.g movements, shaking arm )

- make it possible to select "embedded apps" like Flashlight in applist instead of fixed position in launcher / or if possible use swipe right/left from applauncher to launch Flashlight (and the other direction for other "embedded apps")

- new "embedded app" day info like sunrise/sunset + name day, flag day etc.

- "date launcher", touch on the clockface date area to launch a selected calendar app

- pedometer log (e.g save it to text log file each day at 00.00) i am not sure if it is multiwatch or OS who handles reset at 00.00

Even though this app is very useful already there is always room for more goodies

WS theme layout bug report

Testing version 2.3 with Watch Styler themes...

- Fonts are still too bold (and/or a little wrong sized?). Shows in space between characters and segmented fonts.

- Vertical alignment still wrong (too low in display) in some cases.

- "Day in year" parameter still not working. Warp theme -> "yyyy . D"

Tested with:

- Sunrise / Virus / Close Encounter / Aurora (all same layout)

... Fonts wrong aligned. Spacing between LCD segments missing or too small.

- NixonDictator

... Spacing between dot-pixels in font missing or wrong.

- Warp

... Fonts (like date) wrong aligned. Small characters too bold for character spacing.

Klwinkel: any plan to add weather to your watchface app?
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
I think it is the Tizen canvas that is showing some of the fonts not correctly or the fonts might have some flaws, which didn't give issues on the android gear1, but do on the Tizen gear1/2.

How does the watchstyler app itself handle these themes?
[Samsung Gear 2] JimSmith94:
I keep the pedometer/battery/time at the top all the time and love it. Any chance you could change or add the option for pedometer/battery/date, or is it already there and I missed it?
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
Until now, the Gear app is still standalone (except for sending theme files from the android app).

To add this kind of information, it would need a permanent connection with the phone app, which need to send updates

to the gear app.

It more or less has that already, but I notice that sometimes the connection is lost.

I would need to make that connection more stable and reliable.

but then, what information to show about the weather and in what format?

Beside that it need to be reliable weather info, which might be pretty difficult to get for the whole world.

I know the the US weather services also provide weather info for the Netherlands, but they can off by 5-10 degrees sometimes,

which makes them pretty useless.

So I think technically it wouldn't be a big issue, but the content is the problem.

I think it would be easier to show the next calendar appointment(s), that is info that is available on the phone itself, however the android app would need (read) access to your calendar to read it.

But in what format to show it, just some text somewhere on the screen, or a dark rectangle with white text covering part of the watch?

Most of the watch faces are pretty fance, there is not really a good place to put this kind of info.

Another option is to show it only temporary, for a few seconds on top of the watch, or the opposite, after a delay of a few seconds.
[Samsung Gear 2] djbrotherson:
You could put it in the area at the top like you have with the battery and pedometer.

There's 2 other watch clocks that have weather implemented now which is why I'm asking
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
And what do they show about the weather?

Can you post a screenshot or picture?
[Samsung Gear 2] OpenMind_NL:
Pixel-perfect. Just like shown in their previews. :D

I do remember that I needed to try several font sizes to find the size that shows dot-pixel font perfect, so it wouldn't "glue" some pixels together without room inbetween. The pixels stretch/shrink with the font size. This means that the font might show nice at (example) font-size 32, but ugly at 31 or 33 because some pixels might glue at 30 or stretch at 31. This is why the fonts should show at exactly the same size as in Watch Styler and not even one pixel bigger or smaller.

About the boldness... All fonts in Multi-Watch seem to have at thin outline that should not be there.

This makes the fonts thicker than they should be... and might be (part of) the boldness/ dot-pixel problem.

The outline is very clear in Aurelia Diesel. The digi-font has some transparency but the outline is clear white.

The same kind of outline is visible for the Warp theme, but less striking because the font is less transparent.

The outline is not visible for non-transparent fonts, but it shows as a bolder.

[Samsung Gear 2] samjunctio:
Can you give option to either change or disable time range?
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
I will try.
[Samsung Gear 2] OpenMind_NL:
Here's Nixon Dictator. MultiWatch at the left and Watch Styler on the right. Both on Tizen Gear 2.

Notice the difference in dot-spacing for the font.

I also checked Aurelia Diesel for the font-outline, but that font doesn't work with Watch Styler Gear 2... Just a microscopic small somefont visible.

The Warp font doesn't work either, but then it shows a standard system font at the correct size and without outline.
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
I know why the fonts all look a bit bold.

I'm writing all texts twice, once with "fill" and once with "stroke".

I do this because when I one use "fill", for some fonts the top is cut of for some reason, so I do an extra "stroke" to make the top part at least

partly visible. But it does harm on other fonts.

can you post a picture how the nookazoo look at your gear, this is one that had the font top cut off for the hour value.
[Samsung Gear 2] OpenMind_NL:
Font is cut-off in WS too.
[Samsung Gear 2] OpenMind_NL:
[MENTION=3231225]klwinkel[/MENTION] ... Why do you ask me how things look in Gear 2 Watch Styler when you have a Gear 2 yourself?
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
I wanted to know if the font tops were also cut-off on other gear2 devices in Multi-Watch (with the official certified app), because I remembered seeing a screenshot some time ago, were the font tops were not cut-off were the same theme had cut-off font tops on my watch.

So I was hoping is was some kind of development issue.

But yours has it too, so it is a permanent issue for all gear2, even watch styler has the same issue.

Maybe it is not worth to write all good fonts also twice (fill + strike) and make them look kinda "ugly", just because of a problem with a very particular font.

Maybe I'll make a dirty "hack" to do it only for this font.

Have you seen more fonts with the top cut-off?

I remember seeing at least one other, but I can't find it anymore...
[Samsung Gear 2] OpenMind_NL:
I did not try so many different fonts while developing for Gear 2, but I noticed this problem occur with digital-7 (mono).ttf , which is a freeware 7 segment font that I used with NookaZoo and some other themes. Therefore I wont use this font in my Tizen apps for now.

There's nothing wrong with the font itself, as it works fine with Android, Win7 and Win-XP.

When I notice problems in my apps/widgets that also occur with other software (like Watch Styler) , I do not waste my energy to it... It seems to me that Tizen OS has a problem handeling some fonts, so it has to be solved by Samsung/Intel.

Figuring out a way to import wstheme files (Watch Styler files from GF) directly into the "Multi-Watch".

Then you can simply copy the wstheme file to the Gear2 and select it in the app.

[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
I am able to read the wstheme files directly on the gear2, and to extract the images from it.

but I can't store them in a temporary place yet, to make them usable for the watch.

tizen doesn't let me write files.

I can create a file in the images directory, but I cant write data to it (the image data).

the filesize stays 0.

I have to find another way to store them temporary..... in memory maybe

but the watch should still look the same after a restart.

bedtime now...... way past.....
[Samsung Gear 2] klwinkel:
Breakthrough!

The Multi-Watch app has just successfully read a wstheme file and used the images in it.

not the date yet, only the images for background and hands. still work to do.....

Need to make a selection box now, so the user can select one of the wstheme files stored on his watch.

The Multi-Watch app is in the last stage of Samsung verification.....

But this will be the previous version, without the select option for wstheme files yet.

I Checked a few, inspected the json files.

for digital watches they specify the font, font size and position of the time and date.

the font file is included in the wstheme file.

for the digital watches that do not show the traditional numbers for hours and minutes, they have made special fonts,

with symbols where normally 0-9 is defined.

If I can use the fontfile on the Tizen Gear2, it should be able to work it out.

should be doable, but I will first focus on analog watches...
