At some point this evening, all the preinstalled watchfaces got updated with a Christmas theme option
I am thinking that made some people very angry. Didn't bother me but motivated me to figure out how to build a minimalist watch face via facer.
In the ZenWatch Manager or the AndroidWear Manager, you can change the face colors back to whatever.

Sorry, figured it was easy enough to download.
Here are the animated gifs I used.
Note, these are WatchMaker faces. not sure if Facer can take an animation.
Here are some others if anyone wants to make some other faces with them.
These are not of my creation. There was a holo foil cover some time back and they offered a sample animated gif to get an idea of what they looked like.
Cheers.
Wait...I can use gif files in watchmaker ?!
Yes I have already made over 20 gif inspired faces with WatchMaker. check my other thread. You can export them too like this :
Yeah,
Once you upload an animated gif as a background image on the watch face creator app, it splits out the individual frames and sets a transition speed. It does this automatically.
Very cool!
Looks like I will have to buy the app...thanks guys! I got a really good gif I want for my watch
I was only using facer but your description of gif abilities of Watchmaker is making me reconsider.... looks really good to have gifs on moto 360
I have been actively using both, and I still think Facer is the better product. If you can wait a couple of weeks, the developer is about to drop a major update that will undoubtedly add GIF support and other cool stuff.
The only reason I ever use WatchMaker is for the GIF support. As soon as Facer adds it, I'm back on it permanently.
Facer has a long way to go now to catch up. Tasker integration, gifs, text effects, calendars these should be part of the os... at least they have them in watchmaker
Everyone including myself has the issue where once a day my phone stops getting notifications on my phone. It seems to be pretty wide spread but at the same time, some people don't have the issue at all. Which makes me think maybe it's a 3rd party app killing notification. So anyone who has the notification issue list all of your apps and maybe we will find one we all have in common.
To make this easy grab the app "List my apps" from the app store and edit the plain text template to remove the package name and just give you nice list of apps you can copy and paste .

Ok seeing how nobody is responding to my thread let me ask everyone this
How many people with the notification issue are running facer?
When I started having notification issues this was my app list:
- iHeartRadio
- Calculator
- UP by Jawbone
- Whoopee Wear
- Weather WatchFace
- Specialized WatchFace
- Planets WatchFace
- Swing by Swing Golf Scorecard
I then uninstalled all watchface apps and apps I don't use and reset Android Wear and the watch:
- iHeartRadio
- Calculator
- UP by Jawbone
- Whoopee Wear

Thanks for responding. But I Recommend you give a full android application list. Because other applications do push notifications such as Textra.
does acDisplay install on Android Wear? because i only listed my watch apps - which is where the problem is. The watch. Not the phone. At least not in my case.
In my case, the watch was receiving notifications, but wasn't alerting me of them.

I think this is why people wont respond because there are simply too many apps. Each person on here probably has 20-50 that are completely different from the next person. It would take a monumental effort to find a commonality between devices, something that should be Google's responsibility. It will simply be too difficult to filter through all the different apps people are using amongst each other.
The best attempt at self-diagnosis would be to just run your phone in a vanilla state and progressively installs apps one after the other over a period of several days to see if you can break the watch, then you would know which app is causing it. For instance the only apps I have really pushing notifications are Gmail, Google Messenger, and Exchange email. However even then, by just having Gmail connected I am going to get other things like Calendar updates, ToDo reminders, etc. Some things we may not even be able to disable so we'll never know where the culprit is.
Ultimately it shouldnt really be any of the apps since everything worked fine before the damn update to 5.x. Anyone know if it's possible to downgrade to 4.x?

If people would post using the app I mentioned above. I'll sort through and find a common denominator.
Does anyone know how I can remove the faces that WatchMaker shows *on the android wear device*, as I have tons on there now, but i have deleted the matching faces from the app on my phone.
It annoys me having to scroll through so many on the wear device.
There doesn't seem to be any way to Clear Data on Android Wear through the Apps section of the app..
I've tried uninstalling and re-installing the phone application but the faces come back when the Wear app re-syncs over to the watch.
Short of Resetting the watch I cant see a way to fix it!
Swipe up on watch face in watch selector
I have no idea how I didn't spot that myself, but thank you
Another way is an app Apollo wear inspector it shows everything on your watch, ie browsers etc and you can take them off from the App. I prefer this as I can see on a page what styles I've got on ATM and if there are too many say divers I can thin them out.

neoshi already gave the solution
Hi everyone!
I would like to add a background image to an existing watch face. I like the "Fitness Dashboard" from Samsung but the black background is boring.
Unfortunately the background style I selected only works on the tiles but not on the watch face itself.
Is there a way to edit the watch face somehow? I have the Watch Studio and Tizen Studio installed, is there some way I can pull the watch face from the watch and edit it?
Thanks for the help!
Nope, sadly theres no such way to do that.
So, after getting my brand new poco m3 (4,64gb) i was amazed about how crappy poco launcher is? (my opinion)
so, as always i just uninstalled it using adb shell, actually i have prepared a list of crappy MIUI apps with commands to uninstall them here.
rest all thing, i just opened play store and searched for CPL but it was missing from playstore, so, after years i installed nova launcher now called nova7, and believe me it is good.
To the topic of this post, after setting MIUI 12 to my likes i have encountered a strange bug.
That after setting my wallpaper, if i keep phone idle for a while or use one app for long time or use camera for more than a minute, the wallpaper rest to default one, and it's very annoying to change your wallpaper every 1-2 hr, so after digging through internet here is the solution (finally):-
Solution to bug :-
use poco launcher (if you like it), most simple solution officially by xiaomi. (joke, i want to use what ever i want, who are you xiaomi)
simply, change wallpaper to what ever you like using theme store then change font from default one which is roboto to droid-sans or whatever you like, reboot and wallaha bug is gone for good.
if it helped you don't forget to like and comment your happiness.
