Nova Launcher - Samsung Galaxy Gear

For anyone running Nova Launch on their Gear...
How can we get some sort of actual watch functionality?
It's cool having a full-fledged launcher on my watch, but it would also be
pretty damn nifty to have a clock on my watch
Widgets are no-go, so that's out of the question...
Is a lockscreen the answer? and how could that be arranged?

I was able to get the clock/weather widget on Go Launcher Ex. The weather isn't working, but the clock is a go.

With novalauncher, move the app apk after installing from data/app to system/app and reboot. Then you can use widgets. Minimalistic text is a good widget to start with because you can customize everything about the time, date, battery etc. It was easier to set it up on my phone, export the config, push it to the watch and import it.

Looks very good!
Did You succeed with creating shortcuts to specific contacts or "quick dial" list or in any other way to see "all contacts" AND "preferred contacts" ?
I am kind of waiting for Samsung to update the firmware, but as this is not happening - I will probably root and install NOVA as I use it on Note3 anyway
Battery widget JINASYS is also very nice.
What about power use with the background - did You notice if it is shorter? - amoled screen draw no power when it is black, so I'd rather keep the background black.

You can add shortcuts, widgets, quick dials and basically anything you can do on your phone when you have the APK in the system directory. Also I am getting 2-3 days battery life from my gear atm, my wallpaper is now mostly white and it still doesn't affect it very much. The latest firmware update for the gear did wonders for battery usage.

Do you need root access to do this? I can not find the apk for nova on the gear? The data folder is empty.

Never mind. I figured it out. I went ahead and rooted then turned on the root access in file manager and set to read and write. then I could see all the folders and files to follow your instructions. Thanks.

I just got my gear less then a week ago. I am interested in doing this but I was wondering if you do this can you still get notifications and s voice if you do this?

[HACK REQ] Atrix HD Circles widget

Hello guys,
Can someone hack the Atrix Clock Widget apk to run in other launchers?

I know that we have some alternatives like One More Clock and UCCW, but I like the original clock.
Thanks,

Anyone know how to disable let the lock screen weather and calendar widget?

I can't seem to find a way to disable the weather and calendar widget on the lock screen. I have Exchange setup where I'm using Xposed to bypass the Exchange security requirements. Am wondering if this the cause of the widget showing up. Anyone having this same issue?

Settings > Device Tab > Lock Screen > Multiple Widgets (first option) to ON
then you can manipulate your lock screen widgets, including removing the stock one I believe, I use dashclock
edit: just tried it and turns out it just pops back up automatically if you try to remove it, sorry about that!
Yeah that's how I did mine you must got a bum device.

I had trouble with this too. Every time I removed it it would come right back the next time I unlocked my device.
Make sure you have multiple widgets enabled. Then add a 2nd widget (mine was dashclock).
I actually had to turn off all notifications for the stock messaging app in order to make sure that widget went away completely. Also go into the settings of the messaging app and disable the alerts from showing up on the lock screen. Not sure why that fixed it for me but it did...
+1 on this can you also just disable the notification on the lockscreen and just have text notifacation appear in status bar ? I want to delete the weather widget and have just daskclock on my lockscreen . Lockscreen notifications show over daskclock covering it up

Yeah I think I can emulate the original posters issue. Basically he and I did what others mentioned. However when I swipe left then right again, I still see weather widget and notification widget etc. Even after draging them to remove.
My bad I meant can you also just disable lockscreen popup notifications and only have status bar notification?I also want to know a way to get rid of the weather/calendar /time widget and have it come back.

I havent been able to find the right app for it. I think its tied into the system ui. I did find a work around though. If you enable a pin code and set it to secure after an hour of inactivity it will disable the weather widget and only ask you for the code after a prolonged break in using your phone. Ive been doing it for a few days now and its only asked me for the pin like 5 or 6 times. Not nearly as annoying as that widget though haha

If anyone is interested in just having a plain lockscreen wallpaper like myself(no weather no clock) just simply enable multiple widgets and delete the clock and add Invisiwidget from Google Play and you're all good.

I only found a workaround by setting pin code security and set my phone to lock after an hour. I use my phone so often it very rarely asks me for the code and I haven't noticed any negative battery life from it

I just figured out how to do it. There should have been a setting under lock screen that disabled the widget but in my lock screen settings it only asks what preferences I want. The weather widget on mine said AccuWeather.com on it so I searched for that and found it in my widgets that came on the ROM, ie you can't uninstall it. My device is rooted so I used one of those app freeze apps to locate the widget and disable it. Restart phone, all good. The app I used was called disable manager. The icon is a green android with a No symbol in front of it. It gives you two lists, one apps, the other system processes. The widget was under System tab under the name weather widget. Hope that helps. Took me a couple weeks to figure that out!

What ru using for widgets in your launcher?

The idea of using another launcher on the gear, really makes it worthwhile.
Those of you who are using a different launcher, what are some of the widgets you are using?

I have 2 different screens set up in Nova and I change between them depending on if I'm at work or not. The one I use at work has Simple Calendar widget to show me my schedule as well as the time above it using Minimalistic Text widget.
The one I use when not at work is more minimal/stylish and just has a battery bar up the top and time in the middle. Both are Minimalistic Text widgets.
I also use LMT to give me a menu, home and back button when I swipe up from the bottom edge. I set the swipe zone to 1 pixel so you can't see it and you don't accidentally tap it when tapping icons in the dock.
I also set up the home button to toggle the dock in Nova. Before I did that, I found I would often accidentally turn the watch on with a motion and tap one of the dock icons if I was standing with my hands behind my back or arms crossed or something.

How do you get the Minimalistic Text widget setup on your Gear? I created a widget on my phone, then exported it, then moved it to my Gear, but can't get Minimalistic Text on my Gear to recognize it. Can't figure out how to her to the menu to Import it.
Any help appreciated.

I think you have to create/add a widget on your home screen first, then go into the Minimalistic Text preferences from the app drawer.
Select the widget you created, then from the menu options select import.

Open new... Then hit add/remove objects. Check what you want on your display... I checked hour, minute, PM am, clock separator, day of month, month, year, battery level, and week bar.
Once you have what you want, go to edit objects. You will see them all on top of each other. You will see a list of all your choices, click on each one to modify. example... Click on hour... Once you hit hour, more options will show including position size and color to name a few. Edit as you want... Then do the same with all the other choices you made.
Takes some time and getting use to but once you know how, pretty easy.

Just have to adb enabled to push it to the gear and I believe you have to be running a launcher like nova. I will say go rooted and null ROM it makes the watch that much more awesome.

Could Someone please make a gear watch these faces, they are uccw widgets but it's only avaliable as a zip file and I can't figure out how to get it to work on the gear. Please help, I've been trying for almost 2 weeks. If anyone can get it to work on the gear as a uccw widget or watch styler widget, that would be great.

Extract the zip, you will see a .uzip, Place the uzip on the sdcard and add a new UCCW widget and click "open uzip".

It let me do that on my phone but from my gear, it only brings up a list of the widgets I currently have installed but I don't see the little buttons in the top right hand corner

I use the layers theme Textile OS
Oh right looks good. I'm using sky blue night layer theme.
Managed to find that app drawer icon though which I'm using ATM. Where did you get yours from? Thanks.

Try no icon and use gesture (depending on the launcher). The rest of your screen is six icons across except the dock. For example I use down swipe gesture to expand notifications, up swipe to open app drawer (with animation set to open app drawer from bottom of the screen), double tap to sleep, two finger swipe for quick settings.

This is the link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.danyfradika.textileos.layerstheme
You can take just the app drawer from Textile OS (Named finger) and use sky blue night, in the options of Layers Manager.
I like the ones in the Min icon pack.

If you want to theme best looking at layers manager.

I downloaded that app, and even got SkyBlue. but it doesn't seem to be sticking once it asks me for a soft reset.
I just noticed that it themed my setting, but not my icons, background, etc.
NOTE: I seen somewhere I might need BusyBox?

Don't use the soft reboot. I always do a full reboot and it works and you shouldn't need busybox. I don't have it installed.

Thanks! Do you know how too set it up so I don't power down the device and have a reset button. I have the rooted stock looking ROM.

I use the advanced reboot in gravitybox but that requires Xposed. I don't know how you feel about that cause I know some people just hate it. You can also get an app like terminal emulator and type su to grant superuser then type reboot. There might also be an app in the play store that could do it but I don't use those. Someone else would have to suggest one of those.
Is using Xposed a bad thing? If not I will throw it on this phone...

It depends on who you ask. I say research it and try it if you want. Just make a backup right before you install it and you can restore that if you don't like it. But personally, I don't think it's as bad as some people say.
