Hi, I've been with XDA for a long time, but new Gear Watch Designer got me interested to compile some old watch faces that I had for my Gear 2 Neo and put them together for Gear S2. Still newbie and trying to keep it simple but I want you to take a look and comment and request.
If you want to buy any of these please visit Samsung Galaxy Apps store (still cannot find out the easy way to give the direct link)
The names of the watchfaces are: U-BOARD, Swissstar, Rossi Architect Green, Exospace, Rossi Architect, U-Board UFO, Chronard Miglia, Pilot. And there's more on my page.
Thanks!
Nice job

Nice work. Is the heart rate feature of your Architect face interactive? Also, how has your experience getting your watch faces onto the Gear store been? I'm considering making some myself.

Thanks, sorry for replying late. Heart rate is ineractive in a way that Gear Watch designer permits - it shows measurement, but I don't know if it's interactive to click on it and start a service. Uploading to Store is easy and straight forward, I have 23 watchfaces over there in a span of 4 months - got sales around 300$. About 65% of that is mine, the rest are fees. Just got my first money from Samsung yesterday.
Here's how to download oculus app and your 6 game bundle while you wait for your VR to ship.
Download Nova launcher
Select widgets menu from home screen
Select activities
Select gear VR setupwizardstub
Tap the new widget
Create oculus account
Download the list of VR apps
Download your free 6 game bundle
Wait impatiently for your VR to come in the mail
*make sure Facebook and all vr services are enabled before you start.
I've initiated the downloads, but have yet to confirm my 6 game bundle, which is extremely hard to find any information on...
What are the 6 games by the way?
Lands end
Deer hunter
Ocean rift
Mortal blitz
Keep talking and nobody explodes
And hero something lol
Once you download all the vr stuff and open oculus store it will prompt you to download your free games. They should also show in your purchase history

Here are the 6 games you get with the Samsung Gear VR promotion 6-game bundle
Ocean Rift
Lands End
Mortal Blitz VR - Escape the Darkness (Episode 1)
Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes
Hero Bound: Spirit Champion
Deer Hunter VR
I'm also on AT&T. I think the bundles differ between carriers.

I have different games
strange I guess they have more than one bundle and it's a crap shoot as to which ones you get
Well I can't find any free games. Is this an only us promo with the games? I got the free gear vr but can't download the apps (maybe I had Facebook disabled when I first connected to the vr store over an week ago. Any way to get them now?)
T-Mobile S7 Edge games for me. Not sure the budle is just different for each provider. I already paid for gunjack so that sucks.

They should be at the bottom, and you need to be logged into the S7. I tried downloading my games on my friends Note 5 and they didn't appear.
Also if anyone's curious (and for Google when it crawls this page), the Samsung Gear VR headset promotion is shipping through FedEx

My friend on Verizon got those games. So it must be the carrier.

We are in the same boat. I tried everything to get those 6 free games but not available. I am in Turkey. I have opened a support ticket with oculus and we came to a point where i had to post a proof of purchase of my device to get the games. Because everything i was asked to try didn't help me getting the free 6 bundle games. I will let you know about the result.
Hehe ok this i also see the first time. Never got any free games but the preorder bundle with vr. Btw i have purchased most of them in the meantime :/ so i could have saved a lot of money. Looking at the gameplay of most games available atm it is horrible... this 'look to go' thing really bores me... but even with the gamecontroller i also bought from samsung, there are only a few good games right now...
Thanks for the share,
I'm in 'impatient' mode waiting for my VRgear to come.
I'm gonna give it a try tonight!

okay thank you! i hope we get the free games too.
I received the vr yesterday. created an account on occulus, but no free bundle availaible at all. I guess it only for US. It not working for canada.
I've tried last night!
It's working
But the download is a bit slow. I think Oculus/Samsung's server is a bit overloaded right now..

I think I'll actually only play maybe two of the free games I got. I already had a VR and bought GunJack. Great game but seems to lag a little bit compared to when I played it with the Note 5. Would be nice if you could get another game if you already have one of the free games.

I've been replied that i didn't get my phone Gear VR promotion date with a Pre-order. That is why i was missing the free 6 games. Bummer.

FYI Update on the issue. Today, i got a popup in notification bar mentioning free gear vr 6 games. It takes you to a page with an url to galaxy premium apps link. Downloaded the gifts app and got my 6 free games in the end. Time to unpack the Gear Vr from its box.

Hey there! You're correct, we can only issue codes for Galaxy phones at this time. I'm putting in a ticket to see when this will change... Currently running around with an LG V20 and S7 Edge. The V20 Galaxy Apps plugin really needs updating to the new format. I'm sure they will change/fix this soon.
Update on Knight Blade: it is now in Test Confirmation at Samsung, so I'm hoping it hits by tonight or tomorrow morning!

Oops, replied from a different account I decided to never use. Hit this account up with a message and I can generate a code for you. Must have a Galaxy Phone (for now) and let me know what watch face and country your are in if not in profile.
Have Nexus 5X phone. Will have to wait until a non-Galaxy version is released. Thanks tho.
Guys-
These watch faces are sweet. Like a previous poster stated, I'm in the hole almost $20 in one day buying watch faces. Any promos are appreciated.
Thanks
Adam
sent you a PM.

So hope you continue your good work.

Bought the 24 hour version of knight blade and left a review. Absolutely awesome. I asked in the review but its hard with limited review space. Would you consider an update or a version with the ability to tap in a zone and do color changes like red, orange ect. That would be icing on the cake lol.

That's a great idea and I'll pass it along to the team! Thank you very much! We would have to swap out some backgrounds to keep file size down... Or possibly add some elements that can be changed... More to come!

Awesome. Glad you took the time to respond. I usually personally use the last 2 gray backgrounds before the black. I like those simply because its easier for me to see the time quicker otherwise there is too much going on. Certainly not a bad thing but just my style.
---------- Post added at 01:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:00 AM ----------
Here is another idea also. Another dev i liked Mike Wickens scraped this idea. I certainly wouldnt want to have someone steal his work but this one would have been amazing on the gear s3 frontier. its dark, simple and has an awesome look for the new watches with the hour numbers and bezel free type design if you want an rough idea with your design language and style.

similiar to the stock chronograph samsung face but darker background ect. He is one of my other favorites. Sometimes less can actually be more

Great feedback! Thank you very much! We love hearing about what folks think because it make future faces better and better.
Mike does awesome work and I'm a big fan! We are actually working on one with a similar feel to that example, but with our own twist of course. It can get difficult to cram all the goodies into one face sometimes without getting too busy. Some of our faces bask in busyness, but we will have some more that are scaled back a bit very soon. Yes, less can be so much more.

Hey there! Here is a quick rundown on instructions: First, install Gear Watch Designer on computer and open the GWD. Then turn bluetooth off on the watch and go to settings, gear info, and turn on debugging mode. Connect watch to same wifi network as computer. Now click the icon on the top right in the Gear Watch Designer that looks like a watch. Your Gear should show up on that list. Might have to click scan. After it shows up, create a distributer certificate from the "Project" menu. You will have to sign in with your Samsung account to create it for the watch. Then create an author certificate. After that is done, click Project and Build (make sure to type in your password for author certificate). It will generate a TPK file. After done building, click that small watch icon where it shows your connected watch, click on your gear in the list. It will ask if you want to build the "tpk" again, but if you just built it, click no. It will then push the tpk to the watch.
If you have any issues connecting your watch, you might need to restart it and the Gear Watch Designer. We make faces using both the Gear Watch Designer and the Tizen SDK depending on the face. Gear Watch Designer is great for realizing a design fairly quickly.

Thank you very much. This was very helpful and I manage to move my downloaded watch faces to my watch. Thanks again.
Hi,
I have published a watchface for Gear S2/S3 which has 18+ content. It has been approved by Samsung approval team for ages 18 and over. But Samsung is trying to hide it for some reason I don't know.
If you are interested, please search with name "50 Shades Amsterdam"
I believe this is the ONLY watchface officially published by Samsung which has this kind of content and I believe they won't let me update it in case I have to fix something.
I'm sorry that I can't provide any screenshots here because of the content.

Pretty cool. AOD idea...use one of the ladies as a silhouette in the middle and her arms as the clock hands? hehehe. :good:
I'd appreciate more feedback on this watchface.
Samsung might be removing this watchface from the store soon, because they asked me to review it. funny...
