A watch styler application is now available from the Samsung Apps Store for the 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.

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.

Same here... ;-(
apk file from gearfaces.com was installed. But, not working.
Uninstall it and re-Install twice from Samsung apps.
Working fine with Sony Z Ultra Android 4.3.

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
Edit: this wasn't it!

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
Watch Styler
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

What identifiers does the play store use other then build.prop to determine eligibility for apps? My custom rom is unable to download k1 specific games. With build.prop mods I can however use the grid app. I'm missing something. If I sdeload the apps, they work fine. Any help is appreciated.
sorry i cant help, but can you explain the build.prop mod? could i copy over the Trine2 apk+data from my Shield tablet to my Samsung tab with a modded build.prop and run the game?

Quite a few. There's the build fingerprint, there are also all the permissions XMLs (/system/etc/permissions IIRC - I don't have access to my usual reference sources atm.)
I think the easiest way for you would be to enable all asps on the play stir. If you do a Google search there is a walk through of how to do it.

No, the Trine 2 apk that comes with the shield tablet appears to search for the shield wireless game controller drivers. Even though you don't need the controller to play Trine 2 on the Shield tablet, when on a device without the drivers it simply paints a controller picture over the screen and states its missing. I'm sure it has to do with the game using Nvidia's mapping software for the game when playing with no controller. So without the drivers and overlay software, the game has issues.
That was what I ran in to trying to get it running on my Jetson TK1 (K1 Dev Board).
**Edit**
Editing build.prop allows for tweaks to the system as well as a way to fake a device or build. Tons of info just by googling it. More then I could run through in this thread, sorry.

To my knowledge there isn't a trick to actually unlock "every" app on Play Store. Most hacks that claim such just involve spoofing a common device such as the nexus 7. This won't allow for K1 specific apps and so forth though. Easy way to test is trying to download Nvidia's face demo on a non Tegra device. If you know a way that you have tested to work, I'm all ears haha. This has been driving me nuts. At least I got a few working.

You will never do this without rooting...
...and even if you are rooted, they all require touchwiz framework, so it is no simple task at all. I know you probably dismissed the last post of "buy a samsung" as dismissive, defeatist and unhelpful, but if you really like Samsung apps, then that is truly the way to go.

I actually posted this question keeping in mind that someone is going to say "Buy a samsung device", well the fact of touchwiz framework was totally out of my mind, so . . nevermind, I shall stick to Nexus only..
Hi guys
I've a little problem (in fact it's really big to me).
Recently there were a folder created automatically in the internal memory called "Walkfree"
It has some downloaded apk(s) without my knowledge and after I delete it, it appears again and again and download more and more apk.
How can I stop it please the internet in my country is really slow and this folder is killing it.
Note: I'm not the only one a friend of mine has Xperia p with the same problem
If anyone has an idea please share it
And thanks in advance.
check your installed apps for any suspicious application that you might not have installed yourself. Most probably there will be one like mobogenie or some other.

Is there any other way? Like an app block the Internet from them
Because I need some apps but they are downloading.
And thank you for the reply

There are some apps on play store that allow you to do so. Search for 'firewall' and you'll find some that work on non rooted devices too.
When this method work for you please leave a comment to encourage me to benefit you more
Are you tired of your phone having to much bloatware ?
Do you want a solution for your problem ?
What do you think if I told you that there is a solution
An app
That can "remove" the bloatware from your device in seconds ?
And restore it with a single click?
No root required
Nothing else needed after you download this app
Only give it the permission it need and just be careful with what you remove
How does it work
To my understanding
It disable the app you chose from admin you are using
The app still take space
But
No background service from it
Not showing on your apps
Like it doesn't exist anymore on your device
And you can restore it with all the data it have with single click
The app link
Package disableder pro for samsung
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kinder.pksafety
The app is paid
Another link direct download
https://dlandroid.com/package-disabler-pro-samsung-apk/
Please* : if you can afford to purchase the app*** ........* DO IT .** IT REALLY DESERVES IT
There is another version for LG devices
Tested on
Samsung S9+ android 10
Samsung* E7 android 5.1
What i disabled is in attachment
So, this basically does the same thing as disabling apps in settings?

You can disable everything with that app. Very helpful if don't have root.
May I ask what the app is for LG? I personally don't like LG phones but my bff is a fan and always complaining about the bloatware.
