I have tried everything under to sun to get this app to change faces. Facer is working without a issue. I have cleared my watch and my phone of any files that watchmaker would have been associated with. Then reinstalled now I can change any face that comes with the app like the radar face. But if I try to use any of my faces I have downloaded. The watch just spins and never changes. I have been trying to get this app to work for weeks. I have a Samsung s4 that I'm using my watch with. Everything I have tried to do has worked no issue. I'm willing to try anything to see if I can get it to work. I even bought the prem app
Have you updated to the recent Watchmaker version from Play Store? It went live yesterday I think. It addresses the problem.
Ya thanks for responding. I have been trying to nail this issue for awhile now..
I have the same issue. I have reset my watch, uninstalled and reinstalled watchmaker and still get the continuous circle. I even paid for the app and now I'm quite disappointed.
Any help is appreciated!
Cheers,
B.D.
Having the same issue. I'm able to see the stock watch face when using Watchmaker, but when i try and change the face to something else nothing happens! This is using Watchmaker Premium as well...

I noticed this for the first time two days ago, but it has just happened again so i wondered if anyone else has had the same...
Whilst reading on the amazon kindle app and listening to the stock music app, the phone will crash. The music sticks like a scratched cd and i have to pull the battery out to restart.
I cant see this noted anywhere else and i dont really know how to trouble shoot it.
My first adventure in android is starting to get a little annoying though.
Anyway, do i just keep pulling out the battery or is there a better way of going about things?
Cheers again.
Could be a bug with ICS itself although more likely a bug with the Kindle app. Better report it to Amazon customer service.

My phone also crashed while using the Kindle app! Had to do a battery pull as well. I thought that it was just a system crash, but now I think it might be indeed a problem with the Kindle app.
Mine crashed using the music app without kindle running. I was able to successfully read using the kindle app though for about 20 mins. My morning routine is basically music and kindle, sometimes sans music. I'll see if it happens often, that would be a deal breaker.

Thanks for the responses guys.
Kind of glad it's not just me, but kinda disappointed in another bug.
I'll try and report this to Amazon and see if anything gets picked up.
Although I haven't noticed google music crashing in a little while, since Kindle updated last week it has given me constant issues with crashes.
It will work happily enough first time round, but if I come out of it, leave the phone alone for a while, and then try and go back in I get a blank black screen. I have to go into setting and force stop to get it back to normal.
I've unregistered my device, uninstalled, and reinstalled and I'm getting the same issue. Amazons technical help just tell me to uninstall and reinstall again.
Not the most helpful service I've ever recieved....
Can anyone else think of anything that may be causing this? Any ideas would be hugely appreciated.
Thanks all

I have turned off the eq in the music player and have not crashed since.

This is a problem with the Music app, not the Kindle app.
I tried to start a poll to gauge how many people have this problem but not many people responded - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1387891
Ill have a read through later. Kindle is definitely crashing without music playing though. And its sync has gone a bit funny.
I have also experienced Kindle crashing on the Nexus. Kindle only crashes when in the background.
I've updated to the new Connect app, and the app on the phone works fine, but none of the new features will sync to the watch. I've tried restarting the watch, resetting the watch, uninstalling and reinstalling both Android Wear and the update to the Connect app (on a Moto X, so I can't fully uninstall Connect).
Anybody seeing this? Maybe I need to do all that in a particular order?
I am having the exact same issue. Using a Moto X 2014. The app updated and works on thr phone but none of the new features will sync
In the same boat as well...
Same with me. Running lg g3. I've read the issue is the phone that your 360 is connected with. Some people paired their 360 with a different phone and then the new watch faces finally appeared. But once they would try to pair their 360 back to their current phone, the watch faces would still not show.
No problem here on my Nexus 5
you won't see anything different on the phone after the motorola connect update in terms of the Body app. However, if you go into the start menu on the watch itself, you should see moto body features such as calories, steps, heart activity, and heart rate. hope this is helpful.
Won't work on my S4 either, tried everything. Bummer!!!
Works fine with my s4. Try restarting phone?
ditto
Same issue on my moto x 2013. Can't do anything to get them to show up. Done everything short of a hard reset on the phone
same here, nexus 5 on lollipop
I had the same problem. I use it with my Nexus 5 running an AOSP Lollipop Build.
Solved it by uninstalling the Motorola Connect App and reinstalling. After that everything new appeared on the 360.
Hope this helps :good:

Many thanks this worked for me. I was dreading having to do a factory reset.

when I use watchmaker watchface (doesn't matter which face) I notice that the watch is much less sensitive to the "looking in the watch movement" and sometimes doesn't turn on. with stock watchfaces it turns on more easily . only me noticed it ? if not , someone found a solution for it(except turning on ambient mode)?
Even I am facing the same issue. I am using a free version of watchmaker which doesn't allows me to change the faces and I am using the cracked version of facer which doesn't loads the new face easily or sometimes not loads at all.

Talk of 'cracked' versions is not allowed on XDA.
I've had the zenwatch for almost 2 weeks and i will be keeping it. That being said here is a heads up, i found that using the app facer to make watch faces and using wear mini launcher together causes a good bit of lag when performing any action on the watch. to remedy this issue i downlaoded watch maker and low behold the lag went away. so if anyone is haven a lag issue check into what apps you are use to make your watch faces and also what launcher u have choosen. hope you guys find this helpfull .
So, did you uninstall wear mini launcher ?

no i switched to watch maker it works better with min launcher
I've actually had this happen a number of times and I'm not sure why. It doesn't seem to have a consistent cause. Usually it'll be when I install a new app or something, but it's happened other times as well, but it doesn't happen consistently with one app or another. For me, the lag shows up as the screen basically being frozen without being able to control anything. Eventually, it will unfreeze and I'll usually see the mini-launcher screen, but even a restart with the back button won't solve the freeze.
For me, it was worse when I had Mini Launcher installed, but it still happens occasionally without it. I no longer have either Facer or Watchmaker installed, either. I'm using the Weather Watch Face, though. I wonder if it has something to do with watch faces in general?
When I was using Mini Launcher, apps would almost never launch the first time I tapped on them. It would go back to the watch face and freeze for a few seconds, and force me to go back to Mini Launch and tap again. Without Mini Launcher, this still happens occasionally from the built-in Start... item, but much less frequently.
I have all 3 installed and it doesn't seem to lag too bad. I guess I don't interact with it the same as I would with a phone so it doesn't bother me at all. Whenever I get a card it interacts with it seamlessly, that's about as much as I need it to do

Interacting with cards hasn't been a problem for me, either, it's launching an app that's not already running that seems to be the issue. Sometimes (or almost every time for me with Mini Launcher), the new app doesn't come to the foreground, and the watch appears to hang for several seconds. It then has to be launched a second time to become visible.
I've definitely seen it lag like that. Hopefully it's just a software issue with android wear being so new and updates will help fix that. It's got plenty of processor and ram torrun the tiny apps no problem
I noticed a considerable amount of lag while using mini launcher. To the point that I didn't even want to show off the watch to other people because it made it seem terrible. Major difference since uninstalling, lag free now. I also use Watch Maker and a few Play Store watchfaces with no lag issues.
Wish we could move the start menu to the first selection on the tap screen instead of the last, then I really wouldn't care about a separate launcher.
1+ for deleting mini launcher. I like the app but its so dam laggy. As far as Watch Maker app works at times for me so I deleted that as well. I was using Facer until I ran into Intellicom which seems to be very easy to use and no change in my battery life.
I think this is more of a symptom of using a single core A7 processor. I imagine all of the governors and IO schedules are set up for battery life so that probably doesn't help either. It might just be coincidence that you are running something while a background task is also running.
Hello everyone,
I was not having this problem until yesterday. Whichever watch face I purchase and download, or a free watch face , it is not showing in the android wear app. I have tried this with many different watch faces which earlier used to show. Also when I open the android wear app on my phone, clicking on the more button doesn't take me to the watch faces section but takes me to the play store for some reason. Earlier, clicking more used to take me to the watch faces section and it used to be very easy from there. I'm attaching a screenshot of the android wear app on my phone.
Any help is appreciated.
Good day
Hello,
You should maybe try clearing the cache and data from the Android Wear app on your phone, and reboot both your phone and your watch. Check out if that changes anything.

If you are using watchmaker or facer, you need to switch to that in android wear on the phone first, then pick a watch face
Hi guys
I did a factory reset on the watch and it worked fine. Thank you for your inputs.
Cheers
