Hi,
I just got my Samsung Gear S2 few days before. Gorgeous piece of tech but a lot of watch faces that I like are paid version. I would love to pay but I don't have fund for it. So after digging for few days, I found an amazing collection of watch faces. Just follow guide.
Very Simple:
1. Find and install "WATCHLAND" from galaxy app store.
2. Set the watch face to watchland from Galaxy Gear app.
I AM JUST SHARING IT... ENJOY...
There is also mrtimemaker and another one that I can't remember

Hi whenever i try to download watchland from the galaxy app store, i get this error

Once you download them you can install using gear watch designer. Search on xda. There is a detailed guide.

But is there a way to sideload watchland? something similar to downloading an apk and installing it on an android phone?

You can sideboard with watchland but i haven't tried. I used to install using gear watch designer.
Sent from my SM-G900F using XDA-Developers mobile app
As mentioned on another thread,
(1) Install Watchland app on your phone.
(2) Download the watch faces you want and these will be stored in your phone's download folder under "Watches"
(3) Install Samsung Gear Designer on your PC.
(4) Copy watch faces to a known directory and load the wanted *.gwd watchface into Gear Designer.
(5) Put your watch into Debug and connect to your wifi - making a note of the IP address.
(6) Build watchface and send to your watch using the IP address noted

Has anyone successfully installed the Watch Styler App on their Gear 2/Neo? It seems that several people are saying "no luck". When I try to install it shows "installing", but nothing happens. I cancel the install by shutting it down... Then, I see it on my Note 3, but there is nothing on the watch (under "home screen styler", "clocks")
Thoughts? It is showing a lot of positive reviews. But I suspect those are all from the GEAR 1. I don't think this is suppose to be available for our Gear 2 quite yet.

I got it to work on my Neo just fine. I didn't install it on my watch but I was able to set an analog face from my phone. Digital still doesn't work right. I downloaded it from Samsung's store and it ran perfectly.
Where did you install it from? I know people have been having issues when downloading it from Gear Faces.

I was trying to install from the gear app store... Yes, like I said I can install the app on the phone but it's not on the watch. In other works I cannot change the watch face to what I have selected on the Gear.
Mind you I was very familiar with watch styler from my gear 1. I even reset my gear 2 to see if that would work. Nothing.

Strange indeed; I'd no problems with Watch Styler installing from Samsung Apps in Gear Manager:
By the way: you know this forum has a search-function? Why are you starting a new thread, when there is already one about Watch Styler where these probems are also mentioned?
Watch Styler
There isn't a resolution in that thread either. I've uninstalled gear manager, started from scratch with the entire process, and still no luck getting it to appear in gear manager. I'm using an ATT note 3 with dynamic ROM.

hi guys
i have a note 2 with custom rom when i tried installing watch styler through samsung apps it installs on the note2 however it fails to install on the gear2. so i tried pairing it with a note 3 with official rom and it worked. so i guess it has to do with the custom rom

Mine actually installed even though it was stuck at "installing", I rebooted and it was there. My issue is that when I create a face, I don't have the watchstyler option in my clock faces list to apply the face.

Yes, that is EXACTLY the problem I was having.
I tried everything in the book, including removing any and all updates for Samsung App's, and then reinstalling. Now I finally got it to work.
The problem is I most likely cannot duplicate what I did to correct the issue, so it's no good for me to tell you
Something seems fishy...there had to have been some conflict. Mine works now! (Kind of odd how the package works, you have to be a bit of a tech nerd to make it work)

I had no issue installing Watch Styler on my Note 3 or creating a watch face and installing it... my issue is that whenever the gear 2 drops BT connectrion with the phone is loses my custom Watch Styler face and reverts back to default face.
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

Thanks to supersoulfly, he wrote it already:
I don't know if this app is available in the US market yet, but it became available last night in Korea. It lets you do custom analog watchfaces and download ones others have made.
It needs a watch app from the gear store, a google play app on your phone, and a website is used to make the custom faces.

It works great! I already made a few faces.
It's really a great app. Here's some I've made.
Any improvements let me know!
(28/10 Seamaster updated to higher quality and daylight version added)
Did anyone have trouble with the app constantly logging you off?
Digital readouts or no?
I prefer digital watches instead of the analog hands, but I need one with the date displayed on the main screen, is it possible to make this type of watch face on this website/app?
Not in a hurry because Im returning my S2 and waiting for the S2 Classic to show up anyhow, but...
Not digital, no. Sorry
The app will not allow me to send watch face to the phone. I'm signed in but that option is grayed out. I can cancel or make it a favorite but not send to phone. Am I doing something incorrectly?

Reboot your watch and try it again (holding the home button for 7 seconds)
Having the same issue. It is grayed out. I rebootd my phone and watch and it still does work.
The same here... Sending option is grayed :/ Any clues (besides rebooting, as it has done)?
After installing MR.TIMEMAKER app with the samsung app store you must select MR.TIMEMAKER watchface at your gear s2 than you could send the watch faces to your watch.

The Samsung app store on my Galaxy Note 5 was messed up so I backed everything up and factory reset the phone. After the restore, I finally can see the app and watch faces in the store again. Yay!
When all else fails, RESET!
Anyone notice the watch face displays Chinese writing with a checkmark sometimes using custom displays? Also I swear it doesn't wake as often using tilt. Could just be me on the last issue though
I get through all the watch creation stages and then it refuses to geberate the watch. Annoying or what. Anyone else got this problem and solved it?

Have not had the Gear S3 long but already I get the impression that the watch face choice is maybe not as wide? at least in terms of official replica ones. I am guessing that copyright issues mean that a lot of very nice faces were either removed from the gear store or never made it there in the first place?
I did find the watchland app but I cannot install the gear companion app in the UK (just says not available in my region) From browsing the phone app though there are some nice faces on there and it got me thinking that surely there must be an unofficial repo somewhere of .gwd files? ones that have been removed or did not make the official stores.
Any ideas?

I have Watchland installed on my S3 just fine. You have to load the companion app from the Samsung app store and then change the face widget and then load. It's kinda cool because I use it to sideload the faces I make with Gear Watch Designer. I also use Mr. Time Maker. It has an online design tool which is a little limited but it has a big repo of designs made by the community. None of the design apps I have used are very powerful but not bad for basic designs.
I tried this app but fails when trying to install the watch app by saying not available to purchase or not available to this location?

With the watchland app, it will download the .gwd files to your phone. Just open those files with Samsung's watch designer and send them to your watch. Nice thing is you can change up the design a bit if you want.
Great idea Any idea where the files are stored on the phone?? - Ignore this - they are under "watches" in the download folder

Same problem. I asked dev for advise and respond me this:
Apologies - Samsung removed the Companion App for WatchMaker from Galaxy Apps Store.
This was due to Samsung requiring a change in our business model so that we should sell watches on the Samsung platform, as well as on Google and Apple.
We are working closely with Samsung to get this resolved as soon as possible and have already submitted a new version for Samsung to review.
Once the new version is approved, it will work exactly the same as the current version and will not force any additional purchases.
Updates will be posted on this thread below :

Is there any other good apk for watchfaces??
Guys I don't get it. I had an LG watch in 2014. I was very happy with watchmaker and there were even bigger communities for watchfaces. All faces were free from the community, very few were priced. I installed the samsung gear watchmaker app (3 swiss francs), and most of the faces cost 1 franc (just the same as on the galaxy app store). Am I missing something? If I buy the premium app (4 swiss francs) from the google play store, do I get all the paid watchfaces for free or how does it work?
Paid Watchmaker app is just to possibility use infinite faces in the app, not to have infinite paid faces free
Hi all, I hope im in the right place for this... just bought an S3. Is it possible to download watchfaces found on the Google App store? I have an iphone running the Gear S app which is very limited. If i browse the Google store from my computer there are some great looking watch faces but i have no idea how to get them over to my watch. Do i need to sideload them somehow?
Thanks in advance.
No. face and app only in the Gear Galaxy app store.

"Facer" and "WatchMaker" lets you create, buy and import numerous third party faces.
