I have just noticed something now.
When the sim card is not active, the signal bars are blue and when it’s active the bars are grey in 3G mode.
And when we switch to 2G, it works correctly…

Oh well, unless some else can confirm that they have it working, then it seems it is just me unfortunately. Can not possibly think what it could be. But you say you have it working on a simulator, how does that work if you really do not have a physical SIM card to measure network signal strength? I thought it can only be tested with an actual watch and a SIM card installed. You actually see the blue bars indicating signal strength? Can you send me an image?
I also have the same problem with the bars indicating the signal strength(always in grey color), it works with the stock launcher but not with the Universal one (v1.1.6). Same smartwatch KW88 with the latest firmware 20161215.
Hi Eric, so it is confirmed that a few people also have this issue. So it seems that maybe the logic is reversed. Some report blue bars with no SIM card. I think there is an issue there with this signal strength function.

OK, version updated with removed checks, hope you can try and let us know.

Another thing i use is the lua live site : www.lua.org/cgi-bin/demowhere you can test your script like this playing with the two variables (with var_bl between 0 and 100) :
var_bl=50
var_bc=“Charging”
print ((var_bl >= 0 and var_bl < 8.3) and ((“var_bc”==“Charging”) and 100 or 50) or 0 )
Sorry, i have get to forum just now. Thx for this, its usefull, i found the problem ... removed quotations around variable and it works now ... who knows why in that example i was using it was like this

I downloaded 1.1.6 again and installed. SIM card still shows gray bars only.
Hi all, I have Ricktop launcher 1.1.3 installed right now, seems to work great. How can I easily install watch faces to watch? What file format should they be. I’ve downloaded a bunch already ranging from apk files to zip. Which works. Thanks

Connect you watch via the usb cable to your PC. Then go to the USB drive of your watch and in the root directory create a new folder called "clockskin". Then copy the zip file directly into that folder. No APK is required for the Universal launcher. or you can copy the contents of the zip file into the clockskin folder with the folder name of the watch. Make sure that the folder you put in the clockskin folder is one level deep only. example below.
watch storage/clockskin/
- files
- files
- files
- files
etc…
or
watch clockskin.zip
Excellent thanks. What the easiest place to find zip faces

Plenty here to download.
Just a little tip for those of you who use the clock as a tethering device. If you want to transfer clockskins easily, just download them to your smartphone then transfer via Bluetooth and open using Es Explorer (for unzipping purposes).

If folks start posting their faces on our face hosting partner site WatchAWear (hint, hint), you will have a super easy way to get faces and not even need a PC or phone to do it.
Hello Eric, I have just installed version 1.1.6 of the installer. What I have noticed is that when I get a notification, my smartwatch vibrates and the watch face is shown, but not the notification. In version 1.1.3 this was not the case. In that version, the screen lights up immediately and the notification was shown. Can you please look into this ?
Hi colleagues!
Dear ricktop!
There is a question. On my KW88
is established Launcher (V 1.1.6) only. In total ClockSkin zip. and Watch file watch face work correctly without Standalone App (V 2.0.6). Why it is necessary to establish Standalone App (V 2.0.6) if all and so works well? Thanks.

I have already mentioned this but no one seems to believe there is an issue with 1.1.6. I get around it by setting the default launcher at bootup and then switch to the Universal and then it works. You need to startup first in the default launcher. There is a bug there. But waiting for Eric to have a look at this.

Eric, I just did not understand how the watch format works ... do you also place the .watch file in the ClockSkin folder? Thanks again
Method 1 For WatchMaker .watch it's Storage > ClockSkin > .watchMethod 2
For the new ClockSkin zips it’s (face name).zip > files. You copy the zip to the ClockSkin folder.Method 3 (original stock method)
ClockSkin faces made using the old method require that you extract the zip and copy the face folder to the ClockSkin folder on the watch.Note
Faces made using method 1 and 2 will not work on the stock launcherHope this helps.

Chrismas Time !!Little demo :
drive.google.com/open?id=0B6GWpu3oqY71bmh2enAtalpnU0EI’ve worked hard on a new version of the clockskin engine.
This time i’ve taken a white piece of paper and tried to emulate the WatchMaker .watch format support. This is not easy, i have to guess how the engine should behave… Only way was to import a bunch of skins and make them look as on the preview… This means that not all is perfect and probably not everything will (ever) work as in the original app, but it’s anyway an improvment that opens some doors.If you find .watch files that looks good, don’t hesitate to share their links !
If you find .watch that don’t work, i know there’s plenty, so i will not fix everything.So what’s new :
- .watch file support (only not protected format)
- date/time/stopwatch tags (reference here watchmaker.haz.wiki/).- battery tags (except temp)
- sensor tags only steps/HR/accelerometer
- No counter/timezone/phone/device/weather/calendar/tasker tags
- simple script / chronometer
- simple shape / shader
- markers / text (carriage return is not seen)
- Bright / Dim mode, multi screen support
- lua support but NOT wmschedule, tweens, wmtransition…
not supported :
- no weather support
- no time/offset support
- no arrow animation…
BE CAREFUL : this implementation is in Java, so performance can quickly become an issue. You can find watch skins with more than 80 layers, and it will become really slow !
Also, don’t use the watch skins that have a zoom factor script, it is very costly and the zoom is already integrated in the double tap…RECOMMENDATION : You can use the WatchMaker app on your phone/tablet to create or modify your skins, then test them with the standalone App before putting them on your watch.
Improvments :
- Double tap now opens a dialog box where you can : choose between Night and Day mode and adjust the zoom factor.
- clockskin Skins can be read in ZIP format : no need to decompress a skin in the ClockSkin directory, just put the zip file.
Note the the ZIP file should not contain the skin in a sub directory.launcher bug fixes :
- wifi / BT state
How to install the Launcher :
- install the APK
- activate the correct authorisations : SMS / PHONE / Settings
- activate “Allow Peek” Notification, the app will show you the setting tab.

Hi Eric,
I have tried to install all of these HYT faces facerepo.com/app/search/results?sortOrder=relevance&query=hyt&page=1 on my KW88 running your launcher 1.1.6. None of them are working properly. Are they too complicated to tun under your universal launcher? Could they run under your next version of the launcher? What would you recommend do get somothing similar running on my KW88?
Thank you.
Can confirm signal indicator bug. All bars are gray and not really shows signal level.

Unfortunately, it's worse than before. Signal bars are still in grey even if we switch to 2G mode... It's weird that (in the previous version) the bars were working in 2G mode and not in 3G mode.
