I was wondering if a interactive watch face would be possible.
I used to own a Tissot T-Touch II which has 6 on screen buttons which operated some options on screen (with the hands or on the digital screen on the bottom part).

I'm thinking about recreating this face (when I finally understand how to do this and with which program because I'm on a Linux machine...) but like to know if this is possible or not.
In the following video you can see how it operates.
There are some options to add the ability to open specific apps to specific spots on the watch faces. I'm using Gear Watch Designer (Windows and iOS based). I'm afraid I don't know if it will function on a Linux box.
I found the file online, made some of my own edits to it to fit my ideas and I honestly don't remember where I found it so I can't give the creator credit for the work (I'll look for it in a bit)
Edit - I found a couple decent images of the Tissot T-Touch II and the Titanium. I'm going to play with it a bit and see what I can come up with
I found this face : https://plus.google.com/104704492398430829346/posts/JxbDEaAxmVX
It comes close to my watch.
Remarks:
The outer ring is alreade on the S3 itself, the first display should be the ring with the text.
The colors are from another version
Now to find out how to set the actions (complications?)
You can use some watchmaker faces

Where can I get this watchface ?
found for watchmaker a long time. do not remember the initial source. Certainly on a G+ post for Wear watch.
Just playing with my hard drive I found my old Tissot WatchMaker watchface.
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1qXVmRKvVbVuSucFEXLH8lEpS6epmJz19
Press center to show/hide center display and "3" and 9" to scrool from different screen weather, stopwatch....
Press center LCD display to change display color.
How do I transfer this file onto the watch ?
thanks
Click the 3 dots (upper right) and select "import" and select the directory on your phone where you copied the faces file.

I love Mortplayer, but am a bit dissappointed that there are not as many skins created for the program as I like. So I decided to design my own skin based on the Audi MMI (MultiMedia Interface) in the Audi A8. I am about done with the bottom half below the horizontal metal bar. On the metal bar resides the volume bar on the left and the progress bar on the right. The top screen consists of the Effects, Power, Repeat and Shuffle buttons on the outside, and the Track Title, Track Artist, Album Cover, Album Name, Time Elapsed/Remaining, and Track # on the inside.
There are three finishes - Bird's Eye Maple, Carbon Fiber, and Walnut. The three sets of pictures consist of "No music playing", "Music playing", and "All lights on" (which shows how each button would look like when it's pressed down).
Hope you guys like it and let me know what you think so far. I'll be working on the screen and horizontal bar, then move on to the playlist screen right after.

And finally with the walnut inlay:

Niiiiice!!
I updated the top screen. Feedbacks, please =)
Thanks guys. I wish to hear from more of you.
UPDATE: I changed the text a bit in the top screen so it's more legible to read. I'm hoping to get started the playlist screen before the end of this week. Then I gotta learn how to code it. That's what I'm really afraid of, how to code it properly... Gah!

is there any download links? maybe a working image? think this thread died...
Hello everybody!
Would you like to use your tablet as a live billboard showing the current time as well as the RSS feed of your choice with large fonts that you could read from across the room ?
It is useful for:
a) Night watch
b) Glance at the screen from across the room when you prepare to leave to work.

One thing the app doesn't try to do is be another application that shows temperature, or integrate with aggregation services.
Features:
You have full control over most of the aspects of the application, here are some of the features:
a) whether to show the hour in bold or not
b) color for hour / minutes and 12/24 hours format
c) color and font size of the headlines
d) fade-in animation for the free version (2 more animations on the PRO version)
e) refresh interval
f) it does not integrate with Google / Facebook etc, you have to type in a valid RSS feed URL.
This uses the Daydream functionality added in Android 4.2 thus will not work if you have an older version of Android.
It does not install an Application icon, you have to go to Settings / Display, activate the Daydream functionality if it is currently disabled, then you will see a new entry - Wakeup Daydream. You can then configure it and set it as default.
I have set the Daydream to start when my tablet is connected to the charger.
Animations are nice to have, but they use a lot of the processor power. Please set the Animation to None if you want to minimize CPU usage.

PS: I have decided to write this app when one morning I had to make a long detour because the park was closed due to bad weather. Had I known this in advance when I left home (it was the first news on the local news website) I would have saved 10-15 minutes of my time. I like to leave my old Huawei tablet on the night stand and use it as a night watch + glance from time to time to it to check the news as I get ready to leave to work.
I hope it will save you some time and keep you more informed
I have trying to make my first watch face and have gotten pretty far as to what I wanted but I am having trouble getting the date to show up in the location i want on the face, at the moment I can only get it to show up on the bottom center and want it to be like between the 4 and 5 area. The wstheme I have been editing has in the Texts folder a DATE_ITEM.png but I am unclear as to how this effects it other then background color

have you tried watch styler? you can load your watch face to watch styler then edit and add the date box where you like it. positioning isnt exactly precise.. but close enough
i use watch styler cuz i dont know how to edit spacing from the json.theme file.

Could not get it to open in WS for kept crashing the program but after a reboot of the phone I got it to open and got date close to were i want it, now if I could figure out how to make it rotate to 45° like the real face, its a neat learning experience
Hi folks. I'm not usually one for making threads but I thought this would be a good one to see what people come up with.
First:
I'm running Vanir 4.4.4 on my Galaxy Note 2 and the Tizen 3.0 mod by Skin1980 on my Gear 2 Neo.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2850351
I followed the Guide thread by CarbonWyre To get everything up and running smooth and have had very few issues.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2723862
So a big thank you to both of them !
So... what tricks do you peeps have for getting better functionality out of your gear 2?
My first contribution is getting the gear to control my Google play music. Would love to have full control in picking artists,etc. but for now this is definitely acceptable.
Needed:
Wearable Widgets
Zooper widget
Media Utilities
Super easy. Just install media utilities. Go to options and in the experimental section choose "attempt direct control" and "send cover art".
Then just open wearable widgets, make a 4x3 widget in Zooper. Grab some nice bitmaps for the icons or use "< || >". Put them wherever you want and then (important) add 3 extra rectangles to the layout. Make them big enough to easily press and make them overlap your "buttons". For each rectangle, go to "module on tap" swipe right to shortcuts, Select media utilities and then the appropriate action. turn the rectangles transparent and voila.... Control your music from your watch!
That's the most basic. But see here for additional things you can add like artist, track title, album art etc.
http://www.zooper.org/wp/archives/4695
Also be sure to make the rectangles draw on top if everything else otherwise you can't press them
I have the shortcuts watch face with wearable widgets . so I can just press that and pop up the music control widget.

Copy to your dropbox first, please, before downloading so the link doesn't die.https://www.dropbox.com/s/gl95wpj0xd4pnze/gear2media.zw?dl=0

Good work - nice and polished app.
Just one notice:
The application ignores the orientation tag saved in EXIF. For standard rotations (0, 90, 180, 270) it is ok, since the user has a possibility to rotate the image himself. However for horizontally / vertically flipped, transpose and transverse images it results in wrong orientation.
That's just one edge case...sorry, I haven't found more serious issue to point out.
How is this app different from the other hundred collage apps in the Play Store? I'm seriously not trying to be an ass, I really want to know whats new on this app.
Thanks!

I have to ask the same question.
I subscribe to PhotoGrid, and found it configurable enough for my needs.
