[LG G Watch] KardchCode:
View attachment 6067998

This rom is an attempt at trying to make the LG G Watch feel as close to Wear OS 3.0 as possible. You will find that font, icons and some UI elements are updated to mimic the latest Wear OS updates. At the same time I also tried to improve both the battery life and the overall response time while also adding some extra customization. If you are curious about the whole changelog just read the Changelog/Features>> section below. Let me know if you encounter any issues and have fun!
