Adding notification icon in watch styler - Samsung Galaxy Gear

Hi,
How can I add the notification icon on my watch face in watch stayler?
Thanks

You can't. What you see is what you get.

You could achieve this with null rom...... there's a function on nova launcher to overlay widgets. I think there's also a gear specific app somewhere in this part of the forum called noticounter, or something like that. Set up using watch styler as your widget on nova then whack the noticounter widget on top. Should do the trick. I hope that's what you're looking for.
Personally I prefer using a zooper widget on my gear set up. Bit more choice in what I can do and it doesn't drain the battery like watch styler. There's probably a way to display notifications through zooper but I've not tinkered with that.

Simple clock widget?

I can't seem to find three default android clock widget and the market us flooded with crap. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Unfortunately Samsung didn't include any stock Android clock widgets. They did include the Nexus One live wallpaper though, so go figure. I recommend throwing down for Beautiful Widgets, it's like $1.90 and can do amazing things.
"Weather and toggle widget" $1.99.
I've always liked the "Sense" flip clock and this is satisfies my taste.
I use one that's just called Digital Clock Widget by Maize. Just a really simple digital time with the day under it. Can be a 1x2 or a 1x4 widget. Not TOO much customization, but it definitely does the job well.
What's wrong with the Samsung Clock Widget that comes with the phone?
I am using Retro Clock.

I really like this app too, plus it has many downloadable skins you can get for the clock and weather.
Fancy Widget is nice and free (but i can't post a link since i'm a newbie)
lol, no one knows how to get the default clock widget. I'm surprised. To me that was one of the trademarks of android. That big clock widget on the G1
And has anyone figured out how to remove the clock from the status bar on the top? I did a search, but nothing turned up. . .

predator clock widget 1x4 setting is awesome .u can change colors to match ur wallpapers very cool ul love it and its free in the market
It is is not a simple clock widget, but Fancy Widget Pro is da bomb!
I use "animated analog clock" by DNS project. It has seconds hand! 99% of clocks have no seconds! Is it really that hard to makes clock shows seconds??
I like Simi Clock Widget. Clean appearance, can launch multiple apps by tapping, and its free.
Fancy Widget Pro is the best out there for clock and weather. Has so many skins and new ones every day!

[Q] Weather on lockscreen

Anyone know of a way to get the weather on the lockscreen, without getting an extra app. I'm currently using the Epic Unlock and would like to add weather to it.
Weather bug lets u display temperature in status bar, if that helps.

Yeah, Beautiful Widgets let's me do the same. I would just like to mod my current one to include the weather from Beautiful Widgets or Fancy Widgets. I think this would be a really cool mod.
I use beautiful widgets (which you say you have, so I'm not counting it as an "extra app") I set my background to the beautiful live weather wallpaper, so that should do what you want it to I think.
If you don't want the weather as you permanent wallpaper, most custom roms will let you choose a specific wallpaper for your lockscreen.
I really like having the weather as my background as it's one of the really quick and easy way I can disgrace all the iphone folks.

Apex launcher, disable widget padding in advanced settings.
has anyone tried contacting devs of the nova launcher?
perhaps they do not even realize that there is an issue with it..

Nova settings, disable or hide the dock, then run watch styler as a widget.
My watch styler works perfectly full screen using Nova Prime/Fomey Null rom (I did NOT install the full system UI).

Not perfect, although very close to it
You will notice a slight gap surrounding the page.. its called widget padding. Sadly novalauncher does not offer a option to disable/modify this settings..
It is barely noticeable, the only time I noticed it was when a user actually pointed it out with a screenshot..

No simply add the watchstyler widget to the homescreen, you may have to resize it.. but beside that you should be in the clear.

Clocks crashes gear manager

Ok so I installed next launcher on my gear. It works amazingly well. Battery lasts a day. But that's ok with me. Only problem is that when I go in gear manager to change the clock face, I get a freeze and gear manager won't access the option to change the faces. I liked creating my own in watch styler. I have nova and apex as well as stock launcher. All behave the same. Am on null 23. Can anybody help?

[Q] Using the Stock Weather Widget with a Different Launcher

When I picked up my S6E, I really liked the stock Weather widget that's part of TouchWiz. I always find myself back using Apex Launcher and my S6E is no exception. I've installed it and set it up just the way I like it and the one disappointment I have is the stock weather widget isn't available
When accessing widgets from the app drawer it doesn't even show. Long pressing on the home screen, and selecting widgets that way shows the "weather" widget as a 4 x 2 widget but regardless of where I try to put it - even on a clean screen gives me a "not enough space to place . . . " error. It's really a 4 x 1 widget.
I know there are options like Zooper widgets that have addons with a similar look but none has access to the built in Accuweather app.
Anybody figure out how to use the stock weather widget with Apex or any other non-TouchWiz launcher?
This would be awesome! !

I've tried to get it to work on both the GS3, GS4, GS4, Note 3, etc ... and nothing works...so definitely not a new problem! I was able to tear it apart enough on the GS3 to get it to show on Apex launcher ... but it wouldn't update, show location, or work when you clicked on it.
As to this point, I haven't found a widget I like more than the stock TW one. Beautiful Widgets used to have some nice looking ones, but honestly it's been about 3 years since I've even looked at the app so I wouldn't know what they've got these days.

Here's my solution, adapted from the discussion HERE. I use Zooper Widget Pro and the S6 Zooper Widgets Theme. It's by far the most spot-on widget compared to the actual stock version. In fact, from the stock clock and weather on the lock screen, you really can't tell the difference between it and the Zooper widget version.
1. Install Zooper Widget Pro
2. Install the S6 Zooper Widgets Theme
3. Install Desktop VisualizeR
4. Create a 4 x 1, 4 x 2, etc. Zooper Widget and select the S6 Widgets Theme. The widget option that looks exactly like the stock version is the one with a "45" in the title (the angle of the shadow)
Land it on the desktop one row below where you actually want to place it.
5, Long-press the home screen and select Applications - Clock ---> do this twice
6. Open Desktop VisualizeR and create a shortcut the following way: select a transparent image (attached below) as the shortcut Image. Click Select Action - Others - Activities - Weather - Weather. Title the shortcut "Weather". Select Apex Launcher as the target launcher ---> do this twice.
7. Now, long press on the 4 shortcut icons, one at a time and choose edit. Change the clock icons to the same transparent alpha you used for the Desktop VisualizeR shortcuts and delete the shortcut names. For the weather shortcuts, just edit and delete the names.
8. You're now left with for transparent shortcuts.
9. Long press the clock widget and select Resize. Using the nodes on the widget, move the top up and then the bottom.
You're left with the Zooper Widget with transparent shortcuts overlaid that open the clock and the stock weather app. There's a few shortcuts you can do like set the default click-on action in the widget settings to open the clock which will eliminate the need to add those two shortcuts but this way gives you a little more flexibility like assigning different actions to the hour and minute location.
Only very slight annoyance is that the widget uses open weather as the provider which sometimes slightly mismatches with accuweather re: location name and temperature.
Worked very well Jeff. Love it thanks.
