hi,
i was using garmin vivosmart HR for my training, the screen was always on so i could watch over my pulse.
now with the Gear S3 i can see my pulse during training if i start a s-health training and i also got the HR application from the samsung store but both cannot override the watch configuration and always stay on.
if i choose always on, when my hand is on the eliptical (where i run) the watch shows the watch face, not the HR.
only if i get my hand up - i see the HR.
any hack for this?
There is an app called: I am alive. It let's you to keep the display on. Battery drainer though.
I noticed this problem from day one, when I turn the always on display settings ON the watch face enters the ambient mode then goes blank after 15-20sec.
Sometimes the watch face didn't even enter the ambient mode it directly goes blank. Does anyone have this issue ? Any way to fix this problem?
Do you have a tattoo on your wrist?

Try cleaning the heart rate sensor. I think the watch uses it to detect whether the watch is still on your wrist. If it thinks that it's not on your wrist, your screen will go blank rather than going into AOD.
Im right handed so always wore my watches on my left wrist. Turns out the tattoo on my left wrist screwed with the sensors so it never knew I was wearing it. AOD, & heart rate weren't working. Even worst, I set up samsung pay so I had to enter a pin everytime I looked at my watch for notifications! I've since switched my Gear s3 to my right wrist (tattoo free) and havent had any problems. AOD & Heart rate works, and only have to enter pin if I take watch off or fall asleep wearing it.
I have somehow the same problem. I want to use a nato strap though the HR sensor is blocked. Do I have any options to use the AOD without the HR sensor and have the AOD watchfaces available? My preference would be to use the dimmed watchface and not to set the display to 3 and have it always on (using a app).
Can't get my Faces from "Gear Watch Designer" to my Gear S3. - new and old stuff
Hi
After the update I can't send watchfaces from "Gear Watch Designer 1.3.2_beta build 170410 to my watch.
I first create a new watch face, and get this error "Current OPR (on Pixel Ratio) of the Always-on state is too high. This .. ( se attach picture.)
The attach picture popup, and the Watch Face don't be send to my Watch.
I restart the software and the watch, and open one of my old Watch Face, I know is OK, but I still get this messages:

This means you have used high resolution images/graphics that could drain your battery quicker. Samsung gives allowable OPR upto 15%. To disable this warning and go ahead with high-resolution watchfaces, you can remove Always-on state features from your design before building it in Gear Watch Designer under Project>>Always-on state by disabling:
High color
Low-bit color
When you removed these options, default Always-on mode would be provided.
And during build, Gear Watch Designer would issue a warning for NOT generating Always-on state watch face. When asked whether to generate them, simply hit "NO". Your watch face can now be built and pushed into your Gear S3! Enjoy!!
I just started cycling and usually I bring my note 9 and gear sport. I noticed that most watch face shows the steps, floors and heart rate. Some show distance covered by walking. Any cycling watch faces? Or is it best to leave it with the default cycling activity watch face?
Hi,
I've only just got my GW4 (after upgrading from the original GW). One thing i noticed is that although i have heart rate set to "Measure continuously", it doesn't seem to work on watch faces i downloaded from the play store. On those faces it rarely seems to update and i often have to press the icon on the face to get it to update manually. This used to work on the original Tizen GW. Is this a bug or deliberate? Is there any workaround ?
Hello,
From what I have read, watch faces has its own method for reading the HR, who is not correlated with the Samsung Health HR setting.
Creators can set the update interval and normally they put an interaction to manually trigger the measurement.
I never work with watch faces, but I think it's possible to create one with a lower interval period.
This is a question that I also had because all of the watch faces that arent from Samsung has this annoying issue and the other watch faces from Samsung aren't even available which sucks. I thought someone would have been able to create some work around since it was based on android now.
I am using the I-Digit watch face and continuous monitor works on it, but you have to have the AOD enabled. The setup app told me this, so I turned it on and it works just fine. You mite try that on the watch face you are trying.
