Hi, barely new to the smartwatch world.
I bought the Kingwear KW88 as my first smartwatch ever, I understand that if I want more watch faces, I need to install a Launcher. Not a problem, but what about the "Wrist face"? Wrist face it's the gesture face that is shown when you "turn" your wrist, and that's the most way I'll check the time, so the default one it's really ugly, any ideas on how to change it?
No, the latest firmware update allows you to use the stock launcher.
Check out this community. there is a how to video if you search for it https://plus.google.com/communities/109827242607524552712

Got an S4 today started playing with it and am really getting annoyed... I come from a long line of HTC devices and have never been this disgusted with a phone. All the cool bells and whistles are nice but I bought a phone to call people.. this phone takes way too many steps just to make a call. Where is the contact widget to simplify this to one touch. I have tried every contact widget on the market and either they dont work with touchwiz, have low res pictures, or they are really small icons. I know there is a small dialer app available on the phone but I dont want 8 individual little pictures of my contacts. I have tried Nova Launcher and it has what I am looking for but it has low res pictures. Also the contact app wont save my groups right I put 8 people in my favorite but if I try to use it in a contact widget it only shows 2 or 4 not the whole 8 that I put in it,,,,,,,
Ok now that I have vented I will ask the questions that I need.
1. Is there a contact widget like the one available in easy mode but high res (or better yet the one like htc sense one).
2. Why does the contact app keep forgetting who I put in a group.
3. When I link two contacts why does it not use the facebook picture as the contact picture on all contacts.
4. I want to keep this phone stock because I dont want to root it till I know I am going to keep it so don't suggest I root and go custom rom.
Thanks for any help.
Have you tried simple contact widget? It does a single 2x2 widget

Looks like it would do what I want it to so I downloaded it and put it on a screen and it just says "no Contacts....initializing" for the past 10 minutes.
Finally got one to work while I was looking for the one you told me about. It is DW contacts it works great.
Hello, I would like to buy a smart watch for my phone. My first requorement is that I want silent my phone with it. In class I usually find it troublesome to make it silent. Second I want to check my Facebook notification and see who is calling, accept or reject calls. Which smart watch would allow this?
Sony smartwatch 2 will do as I know

X2, I have the motoactv, metawatch, and Sony smartwatch 2.
They will all do what you want but the smartwatch 2 has been the most minimal cost/headache. I did have to get a paid app to get my sms working but now that I've hammered out the issues I'm pretty happy.
The downside is the smartwatch 2, is the hardest and most non-hackable watch out right now.
I use my smartwatch 2 to monitor my phone, switch, ringer/vibrate/silent, turn Bluetooth/Wifi on and off, and notifications.
You could wait a little longer as the google/apple/qualicom watches should be announced or out very soon.

May also want to keep an eye on the SmartQ Z Watch.
I have smartq z watch for 4 days, I like that it can get ALLLL the notifications if you wanted, from every app on your phone, .. it basically takes everything comes to your notification bar in your android device and show it in your smartwatch, and by anything I mean ANYTHING! FB, Whatsapp, BBM,SMS, Hangouts ... etc you dont need special app to get notifications.
If there are more than one notification of same app, they will be grouped, you will get like "2 Whatsapp messages" instead of the content, .. but thats how android notification bar works by default you have to expand to see more info, wish you could expand content from watch, Also, just like normal android notifications in your phone, if you dismissed the notifications in your watch after seeing them you will not be able to retrieve it from watch
You can decide what apps you want push notifications for. there is a list of userapps and system apps in the sync app you tick / untick apps that you want to push the notification
I find that having bluetooth headset connected to your phone + z watch connected to your phone is ideal.
when a call comes, the caller id and picture appears in your watch, and you can answer and reject, .. if you answer you can directly use your bluetooth headset to talk and receive voice without even lifting your phone
The watch also has 3.5 headphone jack and a microphone, .. so technically you can do calling **** tracy style lol, .. but if you have a bluetooth headset it would be a lot more ideal IMO.
for SMS you can reply using pre-defined templates (you can customize those from the sync app)
seems smartq z watch is a good choice.

By theory it should. Since its an android device running 4.3. So its not device specific most probably.
I will choose a rom with the next features (if p8 Lite is capable, of course)
1.Miracast enabled
2.No Bluetooth problems with Audi hands free devices
3.Otg enabled
4.X-posed pre-installed
And for you?
What do you think a rom must "have"?
Sent from my Ale 21 using xda premium
All the 3 first points would be great but I think those should be enabled at the kernel level. If the kernel can't handle OTG and screen mirroring, the ROM will not make it possible (not sure on the screen mirroring but absolutely sure on the OTG).
X-Posed would be a nice addition but i can live without it.
What I really would like is to have "close to stock Android" without the EMUI junk. EMUI additions on settings are not bad but stock Android can handle notifications and quick setting in a much better way.
My previous device was a Motorola Moto G LTE (1st Gen.) and it gives you a better experience due to the aforementioned close to stock Android implementation.
Working Smart Lock feature, please.

What are you refering to?
If you want a good lockscreen try hi locker and if you want your P8 lite wake when you open your "bookcase" try autoscreen on off.
Both apps are free on play store and work fine for me.

No, I want unlock screen without gesture if I have connected BT headphones or I'm at home...

AutomateIt
I tried it and If I remember well, this app can do what you want

Hi,
I couldn't find any details about setting a watch face as AoD, even on the link.
Could you help me to set a watch face as AoD?
no, this watch doesn't have AoD
Hi guys can someine help me where to find more custom faces for redmi watch 2 lite? except for the ones in the app
You can use the "xiaomi wear" app on your phone. Install that app, open it, make a profile, and then connect your watch to it in that app. Go to the profile menu after connecting. When you tap on "Profile," a new window will open and show the option "Watch Faces." You can click on this option. After clicking "Show Faces," go online and add as many new faces as you like.
