I've tried 3 different watch face apps, is anyone having the same issue. Where when you set a new watch face you still have the default face show up for a split second before the new one?

Indeed, this happens to me too.
Settings/Personal/Security/Screen Lock - Set it to "none".
Thanks, that works.. I notice it took a few tries of unlocking first but then the setting took..
I haven't been able to get it to work either but I found a workaround
Download the app Shake from the Play Store. App icon is a phone with two blue arrows rotating.
Download OClock from the OStore
Disable the lock screen option from Slide to None. Found in Settings -- Personal & Accounts - Security
Open the OClock app and select a watchface
Open Shake app and configure, here's my settings
Action when shaken - Simple - Run an installed app - Selected Oclock
Sensor sensitivity 16
Check Start at phone start up
Check Active when screen is off
If you want the Omate to sleep faster after a shake to wake, change the Display timeout in Settings - Device - Display - Sleep
Hope this helps.
icon callisto 100 and ostore

If you're in OUI2.0 launcher, wavy background, long press to bring up a menu. Then Add the Ostore to the homescreen.

That worked for me, thanks! Before this I was looking for a live wallpaper with clock and using Tasker to keep the screen on!
OClock Watch Faces
I can't get the watch faces in Oclock to display 12 hour time. Is there a setting I can change? Some of the watch faces that should show the date or other info just have blank spots also. TS 1/8 1900, ensec + operative root.

Not that I've found. Just that one blocky looking one. I'm not much of a fan of it.
I wish they had an API to make your own too.
I've been using the Ubuntu Launcher as my "watch face" since it shows notifications and a big digital clock on the lock screen nicely.
There are some great looking new watch faces for the sony smartwatch 2 on the playstore. Does anyone know if these will work on the truesmart, callisto or aw 414???

When I try this, when I use shake, it does not show me the selected face. Instead, it brings me to the oclock faces selection page again. Any ideas?
Could anyone be so nice and post the Oclock app apk here? I would like to use it on my ZGPax. Or even better, the OStore, if it's compatible. Much appreciated. :fingers-crossed:
Edit: Nevermind, got them myself. Both work with no problems.
themes? and 12 hr mode?
I select the "Grandmaster" with the carbon fiber theme watch face. When I turn on the watch it reverts back to the default "grandmaster" Any way to save the carbon fiber grandmaster as default? Is there way to change to 12 hour mode and not use 24 hour mode?
Thanks

How do you change the different themes? I tried swiping in all directions, each clock only has on option. Come to think of it, I swear there was a pong clock shown in one of the videos months ago...
Edit: Oh, I needed the Oclock app. Except I can't use any as my lock screen, it says I need to purchase it?
I wasn't satisfied with any of the watch faces available, so I ended up disabling the lockscreen and adding another home screen to my launcher (I'm using ADW), installed UCCW and Zooper Widget, and added a full screen widget with time, date, weather and battery status. After testing a few widgets I settled for Iridescent UCCW, but there are many good alternatives like Primium or Square Clock.
I just need now a way to disable the touchscreen without turning it off.

SpoonTorch - Fullscreen torch application
Introduction
Does your phone or PDA not have an external light on it? Do you want to use your phone's screen as a light?
This app lets you quickly create a white screen to use as a torch.
Features
* Single tap of the screen to make the whole screen turn white. Tap again for the menu. (v1.17 closes the app)
* Switching to fullscreen, backscreen brightness is set to maximum. Old settings are restored when fullscreen is exited.
* Minimise to program menu. So you can quickly switch between this and Windows Mobile itself, without closing the app.
* Lightweight application. Fast loading: no graphical effects or sounds.
Version History
v1.0 13/11/09 - Initial release
v1.1 14/11/09 - Backlight booster for fullscreen
v1.11 15/11/09 - Backlight maximum taken from registry
- Backlight timeout disabled in fullscreen
- (this setup file was incorrectly named v1.2)
v1.12 15/11/09 - Disable power save in fullscreen
v1.13 15/11/09 - When another application takes over fullscreen, brightness is reduced to normal
- Enter key toggles fullscreen (in-app hot-key)
v1.14 15/11/09 - Read the registry to make sure values already exist
v1.15 16/11/09 - Set torch to always use white and not theme background colour
- Save low-res torch icon without alpha channel to save space
- Added icon to main screen
v1.16 19/11/09 - Automatically starts in fullscreen
v1.17 06/12/09 - Tap screen closes app - no toggling
note:I update little and often. dont be surprised if I update a lot, then go quiet!
Requirements
* Needs .NET Compact Framework 3.5+.
* Should work on all Windows Mobile 5 and above devices.
* Non-touchscreen compatible (Windows Mobile Standard).

Thanks for bringing that to my attention, I did some googling and searching on here, but I didn't try hard enough
The only feature that app supports, is different colour screens - which I'll add to the next version.
My app supports tapping the screen to go fullscreen (providing even more light than Flashlight), as well as quick minimising (so it runs in the background when you dont need it). I'll add these details to the first post.
Thanks
thanks for this app, it's possible to set backlight to max power when launched and restored to previous setting when minimized ?
+1 for this. if You'll manage to make it change the brightness to the max in full screen and then to restore it back to what it was in the menu, then for me this app is a winner. I personally don't really care bout different colors, but proper bright white light is something great.
keep up the good work!
thanks
Thanks bronx and calcop.
Yes, I noticed the same thing when at the cinema today using this app.
I will try and get powersaving screen brightness to be turned on/off.
Edit: found it! It's a really easy regkey tweak... new version coming soon.

i have searched a program who can do it but i never find it
Version 1.1 is uploaded. Now sets brightness to maximum in fullscreen mode. Reverts back on exit.
Could You make it mappable to hotkey so with single button You could get the white fullscreen? Or is it already?
now it is just great, works exactly as it should. thanks again.
thanks for the release

Actually Flashlight IS a fullscreen app. It also does Morse code (very useful) and various flashing different patterns (fairly useless).
But, there is definitely no harm in having two of the same type of apps. Especially one that is being actively worked on. I might request that you make the ability to have a customizable scrolling message or one that shows up when you wave the phone back and forth.
Looks awesome. Thank you.
unfortunately on my blackstone(WM6.1) the backlight level doesn't change
Thanks for the usefull app
Thanks for the feedback guys.
I'll see if I can add a global hotkey, should be pretty easy.
New version is out now (see first post) - this is better at setting the backlight, and stops the light timeout while in fullscreen.
If you had problems with the last version, try this.
@nagrom
the morse code didnt work for me... in my HD the keyboard didnt pop up... and the brightnes didnt change to max
@dotnecoder
something funny happen... when i went to fullscreen my brightness went to min...
i am using htc hd.
hope you fix it soon... and if you add the morse code or the scrolling text it will be great.

Ah, I think I know what could be causing that - if the setting for max brightness isnt in your registry, it will go to zero I'll fix that in the next version.
Edit: uploaded a new version which should fix your problem.

Sure. Do a search for "flashlight". The final version is v7.
Hello, I installed the app after receiving my beta key and I have to say this is the best app I have installed yet. I'm just having a few issues. The first is that whenever I set the weather widget to display the temperature in celcius is always changes back to fahrenheit after a few minutes. Secondly sometimes, not always whenever I reboot my phone no widgets will load so I have to reapply the theme. These aren't big problems and I know the app is still in beta, so these are bound to get fixed. Just wondering if there is anyway to fix them.
Thanks:fingers-crossed:
I can't even get the weather working, I did set up my location on the widget settings but it shows nothing at all.
Same goes for me. I think Ill wait for the next update.
Try saving as widget after finish changing. Auto save seems not working properly.

Im having some refresh issue's.
Using the calendar widget, it shows todays date, however Ive noticed it hasnt updated today, and still shows todays date as yesterdays
Also, using the missed calls, unread text etc, I replied to a text, and the counter stayed at 1. it eventually went to 0, not sure when, but I was using my phone for a good 30 mins or so, and the counter never changed.
The weather thing isn't that big of an issue, but the widgets disappearing after reboot is really annoying. I have a Nexus 4 and after reboot it asks me if I want to allow themer to create widgets. Even If I choose allow it will never create them again, so I have to reapply the theme.

In an upcoming version (very soon) we have put the weather temperature setting within the main Settings of the app, so that issue will be resolved.
Widgets
Widgets dissapearing for me also on a reboot, I dont want to re-apply the theme as a workaround, as I have made changes, and if I apply the theme again, I assume it will overwrite my changes with the default theme I am going to apply again?
Just some info for everyone that is wondering, not sure if this has been covered yet, I looked and it seems that it hasn't been mentioned.
This is a very easy way to get customized knock-off (double-tap to turn off screen) working on any non-stock ROM where knock-off might not be included.
1. Download GMD Gesture Control from the market. You should probably use the paid version since the free version doesn't support custom gestures. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.goodmooddroid.gesturecontrol&hl=en
2. Download the Screen Off app (free). https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.katecca.screenofflock&hl=en
3. Open up GMD and turn off any gestures you don't want that are included with the app.
4. Click on User Gestures up top, and then click path.
5. Under "Gesture Path", type in "T-T"
6. Click under action, select "application" and select "Screen Off" (the one that you just downloaded).
7. Click "Save" at the bottom, and bam. Double-tap goes to screen off.
**NOTE** I changed the starting zone (in the Create Gesture window) to only recognize double-taps on my status bar region, because often I would shut my screen off without meaning to.
Sorry, if this is a repost, I just spent a long hour pulling my hair out trying to get this to work with Nova launcher (wanted my double-tap to work anywhere in my ROM), and was super stoked when I figured this out.
Great idea I wonder why I haven't thought about this before
Thank you. I tried to spread the word on this method when CM was first released for the G2. My only difference is I use Secure Settings
Edit: just realized you missed another obvious bit
If you use Nova or Apex you can set a double tap gesture to turn off the screen the same way. Suddenly you have the same functionality as LG included

Ah good idea. Then you can have an easier time turning the screen off when you're in your launcher. Good stuff.

How can you do the screen off? I stopped using Nova because I could no longer turn off the screen, there is no turn screen of under gesture settings.

Hi,
It works with Nova, you need to double-tap in the notification bar area (but only here), nothing to set in Nova it works just like that...
How about screen on?

You are correct, there isn't a screen off option. However, you can set the double tap gesture to open a SHORTCUT that will turn the screen off.
I'm assuming the app OP linked to allows you to set a shortcut for screen off. If not, Secure Settings for sure does (it's what I use).
Here's proof that it works
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GvesNzvgKDQ&feature=youtube_gdata_player
That video uses OP's GMD Gesture control trick and Nova Launcher's double tap gesture. Only difference is I'm using secure settings instead of the screen off app
Ok, for those who want to use screen off with Nova or CM do this.
Download this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.katecca.screenofflock&hl=en
in Nova Settings go to gesture and Buttons/ Double tap/ and select Screen off, Simple as that. GL
Just got my pace after moving from my old bip but struggling to find a quick way to track an activity.
The only way I seem to be able is scrolling all the way through the Widgets untill I get to a page with the un shown Widgets and select sport.
The manual says to scroll right on the watch face but this does nothing and I see no option to display a sports widget, what am I doing wrong please lol
I am not sure if the layout changed with some uprate... but on mine (latest stock pace rom) sports are one screen to the left of the home screen. all other screens are to the right.
you can change the sequence of the screens and sports in the amazfit app on your phone.
Thank for the reply, I have nothing to the left and can't seem to add a sport widget
I'm on the newest firmware I think as it update as soon a I connected it to the app
Unpaired the watch and re paired and now I can swipe right to access the sport options
Hello all!
I've seen it somewhat posted throughout the comments here but no thread on it directly. I figure the potential of this this deserves it's own thread and tutorial for those who are coming from Google to try and do exactly this without reading through a few threads.
Anyways:
How to enable Wide View on every app:
Download this app,G8x WideMode.
This puts a new icon in the top bar in the notification shade. If you don't see it, pull down twice and hit the pencil to edit the icons. Find the new one and place it somewhere near the top to keep it close by.
When the dual screen is open, tapping that will force wide screen in every app! There are some limitations:
Intent changes seem to revert the phone back to two separate pages. For instance, the mobile Reddit app Sync closes wide screen if I click any link to an external picture, video or site.
Some apps do f play nice in wide screen due to this, and you can't keep the phone permanently in the mode like a tablet, but it's a great improvement to a great phone idea.
This is super simple so I didn't think pictures were necessary, but let me know if I wasn't clear on anything or if you have problems somewhere!
This is very much appreciated! It works like a charm. It's not the floating dual screen thingy but the toggle buttons that you swipe down from the top. Make sure you add it.
Hey, this app seems to work great! I did have an issue with one app called Steam Link. Steam Link allows you to connect to a computer running Steam and remotely control it from your Android device. When I launch a game and try to use WideMode the Steam Link app refreshes and goes back to a single screen. I would love to be able to play some of my steam games over both screens.

I don't understand. couldn't you just auto rotate? you can also use the rotation control app to lock rotation, which helps with wide Mode

auto rotation did not work because some apps are forced landscape/portrait.
I did end up using the rotation control app with the per-app conditions. :good:
Next nice thing would be if some apps would restart at the new resolution, instead of stretching the single-screen app - some apps/games work perfectly, but others don't (and I think they should have a similar resolution compatible because I've used the axon M, which has "dual screen" retained through home with those apps).
