It would be awesome if someone could create the "delusional" Rorschach watch face for the Moto360, the way it works is you look at the upper right corner for the hour and the lower left corner for the minutes. The upper left and lower right are simply mirror images of the hour and minutes. Here is the site explaining the concept
http://blog.tokyoflash.com/2013/03/rorschach-2-e-paper-watch-update/
For the moto360, it would definitely look better if the background was black and the inkblot white
Anyone know if making this would be possible?

Hello, I've coded the app, and tested it, it is fully working and should be released on the play store soon :fingers-crossed:
Awesome! Looks much better than the attempts on facerepo. Just purchased. Thanks!
Actually, could not get it to show up. I rebooted my watch, disconnected/reconnected, but it will not show as an option in watch faces. : /
--Edit--
After resetting the apps on the watch it was able to show up, however it force closes whenever I try to go into settings (on S5 and moto360). Also, some numbers are a bit hard to read like 53 minutes as they merge together to form a blob that reads 99. Also, 08 minutes shows up as a 0 and a 0 fully filled (basically looks like two zeros). Currently very difficult/impossible to know what the minutes time is due to these merging issues.
Seems like a bit of fine tuning on the display of the numbers will make the app perfect!

Thanks for your time. Two questions, #1: I've been around here and throughout other sites, and found (it seems) dozens of different options but none have seemed to work regarding getting an object to follow a CIRCULAR progress bar. In this case, I have a simple clock that I would like to have a sunrise icon and sunset icon (each) move around the outside the clock at the appropriate time. I have tried multiple codes and combos to no avail. I have successfully managed to achieve this result on a straight prog bar using [oy]$(-34+(#BLEVN#*2.70))$[/oy]. Those are, of course, my coordinates plugged in. I've found so many different "Oh, do this, this'll work" codes that don't work, I won't bore you with them (including this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2563932). At any rate, any help would be appreciated.
#2: Is it possible to set up a 12 hour progress bar clock that handles just am and/or just pm?
Thanks again.
#1 Take a look at the Zooper standard analog Clock
#2 Use the 24h. For am use min 0 max 12 and for pm use min 12 max 24

#1: Moving things circular is a bit different from moving this along a straight line. For circles you need three parameters in Zooper: thie radius of your circle ([ar][/ar]), the sweep angle of said circle ([as][/as]) and finally the rotation ([r][/r]). The first one is static and the other two depend on what you are trying to do. You need to determine the size of your circle in degrees (360 for full, 180 for half etc.) and then determine in how many steps you need to cut that size. For something that moves with the minutes of the hour it would be 60 for instance. Then your amount of degrees per minute is 360/60 and if you multiply that with the numbers of minutes #Dm#, you get your current position and rotation. So for something to move around a circle based on the minutes of the hour you would need these advanced parameters:
[r]<whatever size>[/r]
[as]$(360/60*#Dm#)$[/as]
[ar]$(360/60*#Dm#)$[/ar]To apply this to your idea, you need to figure out in how many steps you want your circle to be broken down to (I would guess 12) and then what's your variable you want to multiply with (#ARK# maybe). With these values it should position the symbol on the hour of the sunrise.
I hope this helps you out and if not, don't hesitate to ask
#2: I think so but you probably would have to work with some advanced parameter conditionals to check whether it's currently am or pm. This depends on what exactly you are trying to do. If you can give me more details I can try to think something up.

Thanks for the response. That's actually the first parameter that I found and tried to work with, and, like then, I still can't get it to work. My "hour clock" numbers are:
x= 60
y= -210
w= 520
Using #Dh#, min 0, max 12
Putting numbers into the codes you gave...
[as]$(360/12*#ARh#)$[/as]
[ar]$(360/12*#ARh#)$[/ar]
...(or even #ARK#) still sends the icon low and to the left, as you can see in the second screen shot (I've enlarged it to show it's position better). I'm living up to my namesake with this, I know, but my guess is I'm missing one small bit that's throwing me off. Apologies, of course.
Timr Face for android Wear is a free, minimalistic and simple watch face for designed in line with Google's Material Design.
Seconds are indicated by the smooth, animated scale.
Depending on the set time format, the watch face will display the time in the 12 or 24 hour format.
By long pressing the watch face you can change the color to one of the 11 colors available.
You can change the background color and the scale animation rate in the mobile android wear app.
I need some feedback from you guys, especially from people using this watch face on their Sony Smartwatch

Nice work, I have it and is very nice.
Some times seconds doesn't appear. i have to turn off the screen (enter dimmed mode), and it works
Just on thing, in dimmed mode seems too poor, but if not it should be a battery drain, so I have no better idea.
Thank you.

Hey, thanks for your nice watchface. I love the flat (material) design very much.
Some points I recognized:
- the time (hh:ii) isn't centered, but has an offset to the left. The left margin is twice the size as the right one.
- the animated written seconds (numbers) are tiny
- in case of a notification at the bottom, it overlays the seconds.
Perhaps you can reduce the margin between time and seconds-animation, so that the seconds move to the middle of the screen.
Nice work! Tommy
. Unfortunatelly I cannot link a Screenshot.
That's a nice face!

For me one of the most useful apps since the huawei watch has no sensors.
Its a little bit tricky at first, but with a little bit of practice, this will work fine. Dont forget to set the correct possition fields in the smartphone app.
Works like a charm.

Thanks, what an awesome little app! Since you've played with it more, what are the smaller boxes at the top and bottom of the position screen are for? Ideally I'd like the slider to work across the top of the watchface, but I haven't been able to figure that out yet.
Also, in your video, you say you can customize it to show the percentage or not. The percentage shows for me, but I don't see any options to customize it at all.
No go here, installed and I can turn the brightness down but not up again. To make things worse, a cold reboot is needed to get viewable brightness (aw 1.5 stock)

It's cool but I feel it's just faster to press the button 3 times to temporary increase the brightness. Hopefully there's a light sensor on the HW2..

Not that i know of. Mine's completely stock, btw (v1.5).
EDIT: just so we're clear, you're not tapping on the screen, are you? I was referring to the metal button on the side. Press that quickly 3x and it'll increase the brightness.

Thanks, it does work after all. There just wasn't much difference with my watchface to notice the difference.
this was a good app recommendation ...
great app, and it goes darker then brightness 1 so already removed the other app I used for bedroom use
Thought it'd be cool to start a thread of everyone's favorite Watch face.
I developed this one last week is free. Let me know what you think.
http://apps.samsung.com/gear/appDetail.as?appId=com.watchface.ShrekDroidBlueSteel
Working on watchface #2. Not live in the app store yet, but what do you think?
Also anyone who likes my first watch face I'd love some reviews in the app store.
I don't know if it exist, but did you ever think about creating a watchface whose always on display is analoge and the actual activated face being digital? For me only watch faces with a very simple AoD are feasible since I do not want to waste the whole battery on a fancy display I do not currently look at
Gesendet von meinem SM-G965F mit Tapatalk
I'm not personally a fan of blue watchfaces, or anything else with background colors other than either pure or very-near black. I just find that the OLED glow from them really looks unnatural.
Does anyone know if the two watchfaces to the left in the Samsung marketing pics below are defaults on the Galaxy Watch that can be obtained and installed on the Gear S3?
Also, in particular - those 2 watch faces seem to show the current weather/temperature... does anyone also know if that works properly without killing the battery on the Galaxy Watch, as opposed to the Gear S3? I've tried about a dozen "weather" capable watchfaces on the Gear S3, and every one of them drains the battery at about 10% per hour, instead of <1% when using any other non-weather watchface.
I'm wondering if this is just bad programming/implementation of the weather on existing watchfaces that the developers aren't aware of (possibly turning on and leaving on GPS all the time?). And if the new watch faces in the picture implement the weather feature better and don't suck the battery dry?
Many thanks

That's an interesting idea. I can take a look into that. Most watches I have use both analog and digital, but I could easily do analog only on a black background for the AOD screen.

No pictures came through on your post btw.
Weather on watch faces is tricky. I think the battery drain is a Samsung issue actually. It pulls the data from your phone, but it updates it ALOT. Way too often IMO. I have avoided using it for that reason, but may take a look and see if I can trick it into only pulling once an hour or something.
If you had a black background watch face what would you want the colors of everything else to be?
Working on a "mostly black" watchface per the above request. Made a blue and a red.

Hopefully I fixed the post, the image with the marketing photo should be attached now. I normally put my images on postimages.org and use the "img" tool to insert them in forum posts - that doesn't seem to work here for some reason so I uploaded to xda as an attachment instead.
As far as style and color, I *really* like this stock photo of the new Galaxy Watch that everyone has on their sites. It seems to be the new default watch face. I'd love to get that for the Gear S3. If weather isn't an option due to huge battery drain, then heartrate instead.

i like the glow effect of the green one, but am really worried about the battery life if this was to be the AoD as well. Would prefer a very low battery consuming (few pixels alive on AoD) with the time still showing and the real watch face to include the appointments of your calendar.
I keep going back to the preinstalled "my day" or whatever it is called during the work day, because it's just great to have those appointments show up.
What do you think about the idea to only have an hour indicator at the border (like what some clock faces do for the second) so you can see how close your next appointment is and the rest of clock being a very simply digital clock?
Pretty quiet here ?
Here is the one I made for myself with Watchmaker
Actually just updated it (PMW-01.3).
I added the glowing seconds and weather icon.
The idea was to have a good watch for traveling but yet elegant.
I also ripped on of the Samsung's BG to have a unified interface with the one I use.
Happy to share it if you like it.

The AOD screen on the watch only uses about 6% of the pixels. So it should be pretty easy on the battery. I'm running it on the watch now I'll let you know how it goes. I don't push anything to the app store that is bad on the battery.
I can add a calendar widget to it, but it will probably cause more battery drain.
The "My Day" clock face is pretty close to what i really would like to have, but the AoD on that one has a moving hand for the seconds. I would probably like to have that removed, so it is more static and battery friendly. Sadly i did not find a way yet to get the "My Day" clock face into the Clock Face Designer to adjust it.
It would be great to have this with the adjusted AoD and a Digital instead of a analogue clock for the regular clock view.
Do you know how to get the preinstalled clock faces into the designer ?
I have a question about Watchmaker for those of you using it...
Do the watch faces update themselves (their time display) either in the background, or just before the screen turns back on?
IE, with GWD watch faces, that's the case, when the screen lights up the watch face is showing the current correct time.
However with both Mr. Time and Facer, this is NOT the case. The watch faces stall at whatever time it was when the screen turned off, and when it turns back on, the incorrect time is briefly displayed, after which it abruptly jumps to the correct time. This is hugely anoying to me and I don't use either of those apps and their plethora of watch faces for that reason.
What is the case with Watchmaker - do those faces function correctly like the native Samsung GWD ones do, or do they jump the time like Mr. Time and Facer?
Thanks

Hi there
It does jump to the actual time when the watch goes on. But it's almost instantly happening.

That's exactly like Mr. Time and Facer... I can't stand that, so I guess I won't be using Watchmaker either.
I wonder why they can't program it to update before turning on like the native Samsung GWD faces do.

Building your own face isn't that complicated with the Samsung Designer so, could make your own.
You can also use that graphics from a face you like by renaming the .watch file to .zip and extract them (remember to thank or ask authorisation if you want to publish it).
I will try the Samsung way but at the moment I have not managed to connect my watch to my PC, :/
So i just got the phone last night and i applied both to try and force any and all apps to show notch so i can enjoy all of my screen. Idc how i have to do it but for whatever reason when i open certain apps, they still overlay a gray, white, black, empy bar where my notifications would normally go and its very frustrating.
I gave granular permission, put full screen on every app and even told every app to show the notch... Is there any other way to bypass this issue so i can get any app regardless if it likes the aspect or not to show the notch and remove this bar?
Could still use help with this https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/471469010672812033/544203189558181900/Screenshot_20190210_120903_com.facebook.katana.jpg

Are just some examples. White bar is where it should show the app and if it were digital, my notch
I have this problem with certain apps even forcing show notch just turns in showing a white bar instead of black in landscape.
I don't think there's something we can do about it atm, I guess it's more of an app incompatibilities with notch since it works perfectly with some apps and not the others. Not sure if it's on Huawei or Dev's app side.
When it doesn't work It's better to let it black than white for your screen.
Thankfully I'm glad I'm not the only one and it's not just a me problem. Thing is. IDK how to force a certain color up above. Like for example if I use Nova to swipe up as search, it will just put a white bar up there... And you can see someone else is doing it cause for a split millisecond it shows the operation as intended with just the search box. Quickly after though it sticks that bar. Same thing with for example Sao internal factor (game)
When you start up the game it'll give you the entire screen, but soon as you check your mail or news and close them, the white line takes over where the notch is. Very frustrating and I feel like it's in the system, not the game... But who knows I could be wrong
I just hope a mod or fix is made soon because if I had know I would not be able to take advantage my entire screen, I would never have bought the phone
