Hello,
is there a way i can disable the screen to turn on with the wrist move ?
This auto screen power on , on wrist move is killing my battery, especially when i'm driving.
I want to switch on the screen only on tapping the screen.
Thanks a lot
I'm pretty sure there's not... yet. The O/S is pretty immature though. I'll bet that before long there will be apps or mods that will allow such basic O/S customization.

I suppose there is not a way to disable the heart meter , pedometer or see what app run on the background and disable it ?
I found the way to disable these. Look in the 360 development forum.
If you find the package that listens for wrist motion, I can take a look at disabling the component that turns it on.
I got a little more info about this last night when I did a logcat on the watch. I'm going to speak with someone more knowledgeable to see what we can do with that info.
You should watch the mods post in the 360 development forum for more info.
A easy solution is the Theater mode.
You can access this setting by swiping down, and once to the left. Now you have to press the button to wake your smartwatch.
The only disadvantage is that your watch is not vibrating anymore when getting new messages.
I hope this will help you.
Isn't this controlled by "Tilt to wake screen". You have to access through the phone.

I'm not 100% sure, since I've had my 360 for less than a week... But seeing the date of this question about tilt to wake was from the end of last year.. It could ha e been implemented since then. You can disable it in the settings from the Android Wear app on you're Android phone.
Go to settings there is an option to turn it off......
Hey guys.
I just contacted Motorola to request some new features be added to the stock ROM (which in my opinion) would be crucial to increasing the functionality and battery levels of the watch.
Don't know if any Motorola Dev's/Engineers are following this site but just in case, I'd love to have these features asap.
Please add more if there is anything I have missed.
1. Have the ability to turn Vibrate OFF while still receiving notifications on the watch
Why ? Because I have my phone in my pocket constantly, and my phone vibrates when a new notification comes up. I dont need my pocket and my wrist vibrating together.
Also, Increase battery life.
2. Need to have the ability to turn off notifications for certain apps. For Example, I want the watch to vibrate when an SMS or Email comes through, but turned off for Messenger, kik, and everything else.
Also, by having this feature, Im sure a developer could write up a small app to install onto the phone which would tell the watch which notifications to vibrate for, and which to just display on the screen.
And again, this will save battery life by turning the vibrate motor off for (in my case) 90% of the notifications coming through.
3. Have a slider to control the level of vibration or the burst of vibration.
Why ? This adds a level of customization to the watch.
Also, I see people complaining that the watch doesn't vibrate enough while in my case, its vibration time is too long. By having the ability to shortening the vibrate time, you also save battery life (if not by much).
By having all 3 features embedded into the ROM, On the average user, it should increase battery life by almost double (if not more).

Pretty neat ideas. I have one id like to add lol. I want to be able to turn off motion detection for the screen. I had this feature on my galaxy gear and it gave me an day and half EXTRA battery with it turned off. We could get similar battery life (3-4 days with average use,custom rom too) if this was disabled. I had to always press the button to turn the screen on to check the time, but notifications still lit the screen up when they came in. Totally worth an extra 24-36 hours of battery . However i like the idea of being able to tap the screen to wake the moto360.
So basically I want motion detection disabled but leave tap to wake on.
Can't you turn off notifications for certain apps in the Android Wear app (mute apps)?

Im not talking about turning off notifications all together.
I was talking about turning off the vibration for certain apps, but still having the notifications pushed to the Moto360 display.
Number 2 can already be done you can go to the Android Wear App in Setting Click Block App Notification then Pick Whatever App u want to mute
Oops didn't see the last comment

I like this idea because sometimes it's hard getting the watch to light up with motion, so turning off that feature for when it does work would be fine.
In my case, I have the phone vibration turned off and rely on the watch to deliver notifications.
My one and only important feature request is the ability to create my own canned response list.
Of course, official support for 3rd party keyboards would be nice as well.
Bluetooth LE Peripheral Mode
I'm not sure if they intend to include Bluetooth LE Peripheral Mode in their Lollipop release. Google chose not to include peripheral mode for the Nexus 5 and Nexus 7, although it is included with the newer Nexus 6 and 9. But for Android Wear, Peripheral Mode would enable a huge number of new and useful apps, that would significantly improve the usefulness of the watch. The simplest one would be a beacon to help you find your watch when you forgot where you left it, but enabling service solicitation would open a whole new world of applications for the watch.
#1 has worked since day one.
I get a notification, my phone remains silent, the watch vibrates. It's in the AW app settings.
according to me, since the watch has a inbuilt mic, a feature can be added that when someone calls, answer from the watch, just speak that you'll call back later & disconnect. this will be helpful if you are driving... no need to pick the phone ...

Instead of swiping to answer the call, You can just swipe upwards to reject call with similar messages sent automatically

Good list, I have one more. Allow the setting of alarms for only certain days. For example, I would like to be able to set an alarm at 7 PM that goes off only on weekdays and not weekends, as I use this to let me know when I can get into the car pool lane when I am driving back home from work. That alarm is useless on the weekend, so no need for it to be turned on every day.

Just select the days you would in alarm setup, do not check saturday and sunday
I am still wondering which watch support Bluetooth peripheral?
As I know LG G watch 5.0.1 do not support it.
if (mBluetoothAdapter.isMultipleAdvertisementSupported()) {
will return false.
on mine the whole notification thing is messed up..
sometimes it will vibrate and pop up when i get a text or email.. but then sometimes it doesnt do anything at all.
hardly ever, does it vibrate when i get a fb IM.. but it pops up and the screen lights up.
maybe they should fix it first before adding anything.

Pretty sure vibration is app dependent. Example, 8sms. You can change the vibration length in the settings. If you set your phone to 1000ms vibration when you get a text your phone AND watch will vibrate for 1000ms(or whatever vibration pattern you set) To further my point I would NEVER feel the vibration of Snapchat updates because it was so short. I'm using xposed(gravity box) to change snapchats vibration length and I feel the notification on my watch and phone every time.
I agree 100% google should have a universal setting to be able to change vibration,notification, and screen light up settings.

OK, so how do you turn off the auto-on option?

Hi,
anyone using tasker to change configuration on the watch and/or on the phone?
Watch and phone are rooted.
My first idea is to automate the display brightness setting by day/time.
Another idea would be, using the custom kernel, to modify the colors to simulate a sundown mode like I use on the phone via cflumen.
With this I think I could dim the watch in the dock too.
And when the watch is on AC (in the dock), the phone should be set to not mute notifications.
If you haven't tried yet, Autowear Tasker plugin is almost what you want... but keep in mind to work through Tasker because you don't have the option to backup Autowear actions running on watch.
I change the brightness of my watch with AutoWear and Tasker. Works perfect.
You need Wear Shell. There are posts there of how to use Tasker Intentsl
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android-wear/development/app-wearshell-t2902242
And a thread on Wear Shell + Tasker recipes.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/and...asker-recipes-wearshell-t3367531/post66749469
I use it to make watch bright when I disconnect from home or work wifi, and dim when I connect.

I also have it set to activate theater mode when I start my sleep tracker.

Hi,
I'd like to find a way to mute notifications on my watch when I use my phone (= phone screen is on). It's really annoying when I hold a conversation on Facebook Messenger and every time I receive a message my watch vibrates...
I tried Feel The Wear in a free version - I can set a behaviour, when the phone screen is on, but... it doesn't work. Well, to be precise - when e. g. I set 3 x long pattern for an app and the above option is set to "vibrate", then I'll receive notification with 3 x long and... an extra short vibrate in the meantime. When I change the option to "mute" - there are no 3 x long vibrates, but... still is the short one. I have no idea what's going on with that additional short vibrate - it's not set anywhere...
Another problem with Feel The Wear - it doesn't work with custom patterns in Wear Messages app. I just can't mute that app in any way, its vibrate pattterns override FTW settings.
I tried to use MacroDroid and enabling "do not disturb" mode when screen is on and disabling when it's off. It seemed to be the solution, but... when watch is charging, my phone doesn't vibrate (even though the "don't disturb" is off then).
I have really no idea what else I can try. Do you have any idea wtf with that extra short vibration when using FTW? Do you know if the paid version has any option that would help? Any other ideas what to do with that problem?
I have MiBand 2 also and it doesn't have such problems, it automatically mutes when phone screen is on...
PS I use SW3 with Note 4, 6.0.1.
PS2 In Android Wear app the option "mute phone when wearing watch" is enabled.
I am a long time user of Daydream mode, now renamed to Screen Saver, on my phones with a USB charging desk dock. It is very useful as a desk clock.
Prior to Oreo the screen would wake up when a phone call comes in. Now it turns the screen off and I can't see who is calling before answering unless I take it off the dock and tap the power button.
I have had to tweak some stay awake and power options for other apps to work the way I want them to, but haven't found anything to fix this yet. I have tried the stock Clock app as well as a few from the Play Store, but no difference. Has anyone figured this out or is it a bug in Oreo?
Bumping this up in hopes that someone has figured this out. With Tasker, I have been able to wake my phone up to the lock screen, but not the incoming call screen, so I still can't see who's calling. I'll post this in the Tasker section as well, in case someone there has a fix.
