[REQ] Always on watch - Samsung Gear 2

Hi everybody!
I saw an app on galaxy apps that lets the clock always on!
However it's a very awful clock and I was wondering if someone can create an app that allows us to see clock all the time and not only while moving our wrist!
(better if black-based because of battery maybe like moto360 clockface)
Thank u if you're considering my idea!

Perhaps default in Gear 2 UI soon?

I noticed that Gear S have always on (like Android Wear) integrated in the settings options so if Samsungs will update the Gear 2 (or the hole Gear line) with the same UI changes we will got this feature by default (and perhaps there will be some more nice clockfaces developed for both dimmed and active mode).

[APPS][NO ROOT] SmartisanOS Launcher, Clock, Calculator, and Notes!

Hey everyone, I'm back again with more ported apps.
This time it's from the all new Chinese ROM 'SmartisanOS' for the Galaxy S3. If you have a Galaxy S3, I'd recommend checking out the ROM itself rather than using these apps, as you'll get a better experience that way.
If you haven't heard of SmartisanOS, firstly you should know it's not an entirely new OS, it's more like a UI skin like Sense and Touchwiz. It's based off Android, but isn't a fork of it like AliyunOS or anything.The creators very heavily focused on user experience, in attempts to make the UI very attractive and easy to use. The UI is very, very skeuomorphic. All applications tested ran buttery smooth.
Note that this ROM is in pre-alpha (it was only just officially released to the public on the 15th) so it's got a few bugs, even on the phone it officially supports, the Galaxy S3. Additionally, not all applications have full English support, so certain parts of them will be in Chinese.
As always, if you'd like anything from the ROM to be uploaded, just ask and I'll see what I can do.
Here's a video review (in English) of SmartisanOS by Cursed4Eva TV: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8aRUZwJXlHA
Smartisan Launcher:
The launcher is very, very similar in concept to the iOS homescreen. It's just a grid of apps that you can move around, and essentially you're limited to just that. There's not hardly any customization here, but then again that can be a good thing if you think about it. Unfortunately, lack of customization takes a pretty big hit - for example, you can't change the wallpaper. For some very odd reason, this launcher requires a loading screen whenever it boots up, similar to other 3D launchers like Next Launcher and TSF Shell (but this launcher isn't 3D).
Features -
- Up to four icons on the dock
- Custom transition effects for opening apps and general inteface
- Batch app movement support
- Unlimited homescreens
- Hide homescreen support
- Lock homescreen support (crashes for me, however)
- Gorgeous UI
- Drag-to-uninstall support

Clock
This is a truly gorgeous clock app. Note that this, along with the other apps, don't give widgets. This clock is filled to the brim with fancy animations, sound effects, and special features, like a world clock, alarm, stopwatch, and timer.
Features -
- World clocks (system time set as default; you can add more but the clocks are only available in Chinese)
- Alarm clock
- Stopwatch (with lap support)
- Timer (up to 60 minutes)
- Fancy animations for all sections of the app. For example, whenever you switch tabs the clocks will reanimate into position.
- Fancy sound effects for most sections of the app. For example, turning on the timer will make a ticking sound. The ticking sound stops when you leave the application, though (and the timer still continues), so it won't be annoying or anything.
- Gorgeous UI

Notes
This is a pretty basic Notes app but just like all the other SmartisanOS apps is really nice looking, but unfortunately (for me, anyway, this might not happen on your phone) the app didn't fit the screen. This app also has integrated sharing support.
Features -
- Swipe to delete support
- Search support
- Sharing support via SMS, email, text, and Sina Weibo
- Gorgeous UI
Notes download link: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B3lIkuqWWrmqdW40bGJFN25HZVk/edit?usp=sharing
Pictures:
Calculator
This is a very simple calculator without support, unfortunately, for more advanced calculations like the stock Android calculator. It's based off old basic calculators, and even has that click-and-clack sound to boot whenever you tap the buttons!
Features -
- Sound effects whenever you click the buttons for a more realistic effect
- Gorgeous UI

Hope you all like these. :good: I'll be on the lookout for updates to SmartisanOS and I'll update this thread accordingly for new apps and other goodies.

Nice one ))
Launcher wouldn't open on my Note2. Clocked worked well though. It is a great looking click with just enough animation. Unfortunately the snooze/dismiss screen is too simple for me. Both buttons right next each other. Could easily attempt to snooze and hit dismiss instead. Wish it was a gesture like sliding to dismiss. Oh well. Still pretty cool. Thanks, man

The launcher opened on my HTC one but the dock icons wouldn't open when touched. Also the regular apps didn't always open. Some would open when touched at specific parts. Bit erratic for now on my one.

You could try pushing the launcher to system/app.

Yes, I had this problem with the little gear icon when in the zoomed-out view with all the icons. I had to click the gear just under where it was located. I presume this is either because:
1. The ROM itself is still in pre-alpha so the problem is for any phone, not just ones it wasn't intended for (meaning, then, that the Galaxy S3 has the same problem)
2. Wrong resolution and screen size is confusing the app.
Either way there isn't a easy fix to it, for now anyway.

No, sorry, I'm not a developer. It may be because you're not running the latest version of Android, as SmartisanOS is based on 4.2.

You should ask that on the Smartisan OS forums or if there's a thread for Smartisan OS for your device you could ask it there maybe. This thread isn't for help with bugs in the ROM, sorry.
Ok thanks man

Why don't you download from the Smartisan web site: http://www.smartisan.com/apps/launcher ? The launcher works perfectly under Slim7 on bacon, for example.

[APP] 4.1.2+ Fellow (Facebook Replacement App)

"Time to Rebel"
With the recent changes Facebook has made to make us use the Facebook Messenger app, ive taken a next step to start building a Java based Chromeview built specifically for Facebook allowing you to message users the way its always been. In a nutshell, Fellow is a WebApp based on Facebook Mobile.
Here it is
Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.NxIndustries.myfacebookfree
With the recent update, I focused on Media uploading and Java scripting and for the majority of Kitkat devices, it works but for some, you arnt so lucky...
Facebook Lockscreen
I actually found this activity on accident while developing my Launcher for the HTC M8 and figured i'd make a small app out of it.
Set Facebook Lock is a small application that allows a backdoor to use the Facebook Home's lockscreen without the need of the actual Home application and allows any device to use it bypassing Facebook's device detection. (I do not actually know if it works for all devices but worth a shot)

Working on another Facebook app to coencide with this, will update thread soon. Time to Rebel
My Facebook app introduced
My Facebook *Free* introduced, ads driven

Awesome app mate, love it so much that bought ad free version...
2 suggestions though:
- Make arrows on top bar smaller and plain should blend better with material ui... It seems a bit off to my eyes.
- Make refresh button movable and excludable (is that even a word?) like Facebook chat heads, because it gets in the way,and going to menu and enabling/disabling it is a bit troublesome, therefore moving it somewhere else as needed seems easier... You could even make it hide like halo from paranoid

Il take this into consideration! This is what i like to here.
I agree on icons as basically their place holders for now, need to make it more material like. Need to make a material style for kitkat users. Floating Action Button was an experimental thing. I didnt know how people would react to it at first but its one of the things that make this webapp unique.

Cool! I quite like the floating refresh button, if you make it movable, it would be perfect!
Maybe add a full screen option?
That's very good work mate! I also use your launcher
This app is amazing, I'm really hate the official Facebook app and Fellow is perfect for me.
Just a few kilobytes, and a million times better than the official app, great work!
The only thing that bothers me is the loading bar (Image at attachments), If you can place it a little higher it will be awesome.
That was bothering me as well over few days after using it lol. Il surely look into it.
Great, hope you will fix it soon.
I left a review at the Play Store (Free version), look into it
Gonna be working on an update soon and taking everyone's feedback into consideration. I will be adding a more material feel to this as well as transparency options for kitkat+ users.

SW2 update 1/14/2015

Thank You Very Much My Friend!!!!!!!!!!
I was really looking for these good news.
Just installed update.
Several Watchfaces/Widgets that stopped working are now working again.
Thanks to Sony for (fairly) promptly fixing this.
So any downside to this update vs. The version we have had prior to the one that broke the watch faces? I saw the horrible reviews and didn't take the December update, the current version works great, but I would like custom app order and swiping to change watch faces... Not enough to break something else though.
Wish they would at least leave us the option to easily roll back if we don't like a new version!
for me the only downside now, is the changed initial notification, it's show on black background, with smaller white font, if you tap it, the colors are switched around and you get a bigger font
i have NO idea why that is an improvement
wish they'd had made that optional
but now they fixed the broken watchfaces, it will be another 6 months or so before the next update hits
Installed update..
enviado desde mi noterin 12.2..
Updated!
Looks nothing changed... (but now the faces swipe)
Not much changed interface wise yeah. But this update fixes the broken hour clock hand not moving and date not showing from previous update. Everything works the way it is on newest update.
The update doesn't works for me, the application crashes immediately after coupling the SmartWatch. Smartwatch wants to reconnect to smartphone, but the app doesn't run. I have deinstalled the update and installed the former version back.
Hello all just bought smart watch 2 and allready have a problem :/ how to increase screen on time? it dims and turns off very fast :// also need a handy app for text reading !!! ( becouse i am a student ) please help me someone thanks !
there's no way to increase screen timeout
i've been asking Sony for a year now to add that simple function, no result

[Q] How to get/install the default clock app for the Samsung Galaxy S4

So, I have a Galaxy S4 (sprint if it matters), and it comes with a pretty simple app called "Clock". This app has multiple alarms, a stopwatch, timer, world clock, and (if you rotate it sideways) a desktop clock. I also have a Samsung Galaxy Note 2014 edition tablet. It does not come with this app, but comes with something called "Alarm", which I don't find nearly as useful. Thus, my question is, is there some way to grab the Clock app off my phone and install it on my tablet, preferably without rooting either device? Or, does anyone just have that clock as an apk sitting around somewhere that I can side load?
I've tried to find the app in the Google Play store, but with a name like "Clock" it isn't easy to find. Also, I am NOT looking for some other app that does the same thing or is "better"; I just want the one I have on my phone.
thanks

Question Galaxy watch 4 alternative launcher

I'm trying to find an alternative launcher for my watch 4 that i can select as alternative launcher in watch settings. Does it exist? I would like to hide one of messages app ( Samsung messages and Google messages) from launcher but seems impossible...
I don't know, but I really hope they either offer a list mode like my Watch Active 2 had or an alternative comes along. I really despise the new launcher. I use XDrip (for blood glucose readings) on the watch and it has several components that get installed and they all have the same icon, making it impossible to know which is which. Not all icons are really self explanatory either.

Another fellow type 1 and xdrip user here!
I'm really hoping for an alternative launcher as well. One that is similar to wear os 2.0.
But when it comes to your specific problem have you tried just using wearable widgets?
I keep this as the first tile. I still get to have the watch face I want, but it's just a swipe to the right and there's my bg. It works very well.

I do use Wearable Widgets as well. It's also the first tile in my list just in case I want to change my watch face from XDrip. I find that it doesn't update that well or quickly though. I have to swipe to it and then wait for it to update. I should specify that I'm type 2, but bad enough I needed a Dexcom to monitor. It's been SUPER helpful to help control my BG and keep me honest.
