Thanks for the link. It appears to be a bit tricky right now, but I'm sure the devs will find a way atound the current problem. The way I understood, they can make custom watchfaces, but can't install them yet due to permission problems. Maybe Google has to open a door somewhere for this to work...

To put it simple if it's android it can be rooted so once that's obtained watch faces etc will begin develooment.

New Market. http://market.android.com.
UPDATE: We can sign in now. When going to download an app it offers a list of what device to install it to. My only Android device is my G Tablet and the market lists it as NVIDIA VEGAn-Tab-V1.0.0.B5.1.
Technically an web-based app market should offer us an "full" app market, no? i'm sure every app is visible, i guess the question now is after we log in will the app market recognize our device and attempt to block certain apps from us, or would an app that doesn't show up on the Gtab just give us an app not found when we click on it from the Gtab browser?

Can currently browse the apps, but no download here. Can't sign in to account on G Tablet yet.

Correct when trying to sign into market.android.com you get a invalid request both on the PC and Gtab and Phone.
They mentioned that when you select an app, it will list the available devices you can push it to, based off your registered devices features and OS.
I take this to mean that if you can't see it in the Market on your device.....your device want be listed as a choice to install for those apps on the web.
Oh..and this is typically for you to do from your home/work/public library computer.....browse the apps, select what you want and it installs to your phone. You still use the "Market" app on the devices (phones/tablets).

I wonder if this will be unusable for people with devices that aren't intended to have access to the Market like our beloved G Tabs. Will Google let you OTA install to a device that they think shouldn't be there?
Invalid Request
I get nothing but "Invalid Request" when trying to sign in.

If all the apps aren't showing up, just use the market hack. Go to the task manager, force stop and clear the browser cache and reboot.

I thought since this is web based, it would let us sideload to any android device from our pc. That would suck if it doesn't.

[Q] To ROM makers: how do you link pre-installed applications to Android Market?

I just got a great news today, my own application will be included on all the phone of the brand "X" in my little country (Belgium)
I got so excited when I am looking at the phones in the shops and I can see my application by default.
Unfortunately, the brand "X" is noobie and seem unable to link my app to the Market, so the users cannot be aware that there is an upgrade in the Android Market.
they just ask me by email
Do you know how to link apps to the market to get the update automatic?

I know that I don't work for this company and they will get benefit with this information, but have you got an Idea on how to achieve this?
Thank a lot.

You got to put your apk file in the data/app folder, not the system/app. According to HTC Android ROM kitchen at least, with which I'm experimenting now.

I don't care, I prefer users removing my app rather than being annoyed by an old version, but I don't think that the manufacturer will allow to do that.
Are there really no other option than moving the app? I cannot believe that as many devices have pre-installed apps and are linked to the Market.

Yeah I prefer that way too but U.S. carriers love putting preloaded applications on the phone and it can't be removed unless the user have root access.
And there is no option.. unless you want to provide the customers phones with root access from the start but that'll cause future updates to be a hassle.
The only way to update your app is via a software update (OTA).

Haha, you probably need an answer from an actual dev.
One thing I do know is that it is possible with Titanium Backup, or any other root backup app, to backup your apps with a market link, so that you can update your backed up apps. So maybe that's the solution? Put a market link somewhere?

Actually.. now that I'm thinking about it. Stock ROMs have Android Market is in /system/app/ as Vending.apk.
I believe what happens is that, the market will UPDATE. But you could always uninstall the updates but you're unable to fully get rid of the app.
This should apply to any app in /system/app/ so in theory it should be possible. But yeah, you'd have to ask a dev about it.

Watch Styler App hits the Samsung Apps Store

A watch styler application is now available from the Samsung Apps Store for the Gear 2:
http://www.tizenexperts.com/2014/04/watch-styler-hits-samsung-apps-store-tizen-samsung-gear-2/
It looks pretty good so far ....
Wonderful app, finally allowed me to put the BT indicator and battery level on the home screen.
However, seems to drain battery like hell. Anyone else with such experience?

No, I haven't had the battery drain. I still have to play around with it more. So far so good though. I'm glad it was updated. Now I can custom my face watches like before.
OK. Got apk file from gearfaces.com.
Thanks.
Johnnynho said:
Can someone upload it as APK file?
It can backup as APK file with ES File Explorer.
For non-samsung phone users like me, there is no Samsung Apps to download that Watch Styler.
Thanks.

Constantly customizing and loading to your watch is absolutely going to drain your battery. But normal use with just a custom face won't.
Got it to install on my HTC m8, but the watch faces won't transfer over to gear manager.

Can you please share the APK from amsung Apps? I am travelling out of my counrty for few Months and the damned Samsung Apps shows stupidily no apps as soon as your are out of your region.. not clever if their phones cannot be fully utilized on travel!!!
Thanks in advance
I think I may have found out why the new Digital Faces do not work properly. Tizen does things differently. Mostly it't the fontsize that causes the problems. As seen in the piece below of the piece of code out of the Json file. I created a digital watch and I had a look at its Json file, and this is what I found. Im wiating for @OpenMind_NL his confirmation about this. If this is it all digital watches need to be converted. Not GOOD!
"DIGITAL_ITEM":{"bgName":"","timeZoneId":"Europe/Amsterdam","clockItem":"DIGITAL_ITEM","clockTextParts":{"HOUR_PART":{"clockTextPartType":"HOUR_PART","textVerticalAlign":"CENTER","textFormatForMoment":"HH:mm","textFormat":"HH:mm","textAlign":"CENTER","maxWidth":0,"h":3,"fontSizeTizen":0.0,"fontSize":106,"w":10,"x":0,"y":0

I have digital faces working through Watch Styler. Not quite sure why everyone is having an issue. The only problem I have is that I can't change between 24hr and 12hr. All I did was create a digital theme and move it over through gear manager. How are you trying to push it over?

Oh that. Yeah I got those working too. All I did was import them. I did get the error message. I just uninstalled the app, reinstalled it, rebooted both devices and it worked.
...no watch styler in GM App Store, nor toggles..tips?
Is it a regional/device/signature issue? I'm using an AT&T Galaxy S5 and Gear 2 Neo in Northern Cal. I seem to have most apps within the store, but no Watch Styler, Toggles, etc.
Any tips?

Hi, my apk file is exactly the same size with the one from gearfaces.com.
What I mean is normal apk file installation won't integrate the Watch Styler to the Gear Manager.
Only the download and install from Samsung Apps will integrate Watch Styler to Gear Manager.
May be my phone is not Samsung and it is Sony Z Ultra.
Why starting a new thread here, when then is already one overhere (in the correct place IMHO): Gear 2 Themes and Apps

Hi guys this is what I found so far I think the problem is with apps that need permissions these fail to install however apps that don't need permission install with no issues

Google's apps trump Samsung's in my opinion, so I wanted to make a flashable zip to replace (replace, not just add google apps) Samsung's stock apps with Google's.
I am installing these as user apps, not system. If you would prefer them installed as system let me know (I thought you would like to be able to delete the ones you don't want)
Just flash in custom recovery or in flashfire (Mount system in flashfire)
Please post or PM me with problems or app requests!!
Note * I'm not responsible for any damage to your phone, such as bootloops.

Edit: You leave the phone apps alone. You actually delete samsung contacts app
Yeah i had trouble using package disabler pro for that
Updated link - Mount system in flashfire... let me know if it works or not
Edit: Updated again (July 20th)
Nice part about these as well... we don't have to rely on Samsung's App store to get themes... all google's apps are substratum friendly.
I have/had a rom out for the LG G4, i basically replaced all LG stock apps with either the Google version or the Sony Xperia version for this very reason... theme-ability without the need for a stock based theme store
Kudos mate!
Have anyone tried it on the S8+ port rom? I don't know if it will crash the system in some point

As long as they didn't change the package names... if they did it shouldn't mess anything up (like a brick/bootloop) it just won't uninstall the Samsung apps.

Oh damn so what you want to do is apk modding to mod your test results, huh? This may be possible but XDA isn't the place. That's fully fledged fraud if you're doing this for a real exam, that even worst than asking for a warez here.
Check the rules.
Idk a lot about the app itself so please clarify your intensions.
OP obviously confuses an app's data and the computed app's output drawn on an app's viewport.
