Another observation not related to the flashing or resetting, the touch interface over the keyboard is severely out of alignment in the lower right, particularly around the green ‘enter’ button. Trying to tap it is a real art. The nearby keys, like period and ‘m’ are also hard to hit correctly. I’ve worked with many 1.6" screen Android watches, and this is by far the worst. Took me forever to just enter my WiFi PW. Not sure if it’s just me and my fat fingers or this watch or something affecting others. How are you guys doing tapping that enter button?

OK Guys, I’ve figured out the ‘black screen of death’ issue that started this conversation, and it’s NOT related to any of the custom faces I installed on the PRIME S. In a nutshell:
WARNING: THE APP “FLOATING TOUCHER” WILL BRICK THE PRIME S REQUIRING FLASHING THE WATCH TO RECOVER!
Now the background. Thanks to you guys with suggestions like making sure I opened Settings before messing around with recreating the black screen scenario, I was able to isolate Floating Toucher by doing a factory restore, opening and closing Settings, side loading and setting up Floating Toucher, and, while messing around with it, had it basically NOT return control back to the watch. So it sat there running in overlay. I knew it was there because the white dot was there and I could activate and see it on the screen, but hitting the ‘home’ icon closed it out to a black screen (except for the white button). So I went to Recent Tasks, launched back into settings, over to factory restore and reset the watch.
Then I set this all up again, same results, and with FT overlaying a black screen, I launched into Settings from Recent Tasks, went to Apps and force quit, then uninstalled Floating Toucher. Guess what?
It didn’t fix things. All I could do was see the black screen, or activate the power button menu. Thank you thank you thank you for the advice to have opened Settings, because, once again, I was able to get back to the factory restore option and restore into a working watch.
S, do not install Floating Toucher, even though it will physically install with Android 9 on this watch (note: it won’t install on any Android 10 watches but it DOES install and WORK CORRECTLY in FAW International Android 10 firmware). IF you do experiment with it (shame on you!) open and close Settings first so you can always get to it with a long press of the power button and tap on Recent Tasks.
And now we know.

It cannot work without the correct permissions and strangely does not ask for all the required permissions when it is installed… 
So I have to say that it is a risk and probably should not be used until I do some research about it.
Thanks @SmartWatch_Ticks

Not just you but oddly my wife can hit it on her first try from the passenger seat while I’m driving and my daughter (who has my fingers and she hates it ) can’t touch the corners either until a recent update which apparently address the issue but didn’t address the Bluetooth issue
@Gazman I think you should write something to go with the forum… Obviously only if you feel like it… 
Ode to FAW for example 
That would be awesome

The problem was the Touch panel driver.
It was way out in calibration…
What is the BT issue you are having?
Excuse me asking again but this thread is a little hectic 
The device will not connect to gaofit nor will it connect to my phone via Bluetooth setting but it will connect to watchdroid I’m wondering if I should reset my phone which is a note 20 ultra running Android 11 was thinking maybe the Bluetooth info was currupted some how I don’t want to reset my device it’s set up how I like and I have alot of heavy apps that will take forever to download again any help would be tremendous
You are supposed to scan the QR code on the watch to download the app for the phone.
Is this how you installed it?
Yes sir and from the beginning it was doing the connect disconnect thing so I rebooted the watch and phone it got a little better until it flat out just wouldn’t connect at all so I uninstalled the app did a factory reset on the watch and did the syncing action again that’s when the condition I’m dealing with now showed it’s face the app on my phone nor my phone through settings would connect to the phone but 8 can connect to watch Droid without issue … Also today I was able to prt my contacts via Bluetooth from my phone but will not connect for anything else
Do you think a reset of my phone may help it’s not the watch I’ve connected to my Chromebook via Bluetooth, my tablet and just to prove to me it’s my phone my wife was able to connect with her note 10 does Android 11 not play well with the watch or could the Bluetooth file been currupted some how on my phone
I would suspect that it is a permissions issue on your phone.
When you scan the QR code and install it on the phone - it should ask you to enable all the correct permissions.
But sometimes this does not work and you have to manually check all the permissions.
Same for the watch.
You must check that the background “cleaner” app must be set to OFF in the Optimisation section on the watch and also the other permissions needed.
Usually, if you have scanned and installed the app will do this correctly.
So the issue most likely comes from the phone.
For example, if you setup your phone using BT settings, it will not work correctly.
For correct setup you need to open the app on your phone and then scan the sync QR code which will pick up the MAC address of the watch and create a permanent connection.
Lastly, the app was developed with Android 9 and 10.
So there might be an issue with Android 11. Unfortunately I can’t test this.
I strongly advise you to use Watch Droid tethering app.
Much better.
Also remember that your watch only has 1gb or ram so you may have to kill all other running tasks and keep minimal apps installed.

On initial start up I did everything you described I really think it’s a android 11 thing all permissions were granted except one the background sport setting there is no toggle for this permission I’m pretty good with technology so Im certain there is no permission on my phone for the sports background also my phone just recently received the Android 11 when idk I’m wondering if when I got the update is when everything went to the crapper unfortunately I see a reset coming for my note 20
I’ve figured out how to get the watch to connect I noticed all of my Bluetooth transmission was currupted so instead of doing a full fledge reset I just reset the data connection and Wala connection with no issue no disconnect reconnect shananigins so I’m assuming after the Android 11 update wifi configuration or something like that change now I’m a happy camper I can actually understand the temperature

It is really very sad that FT cannot be used in these watches, being such a useful tool, it would be very convenient to find out what are the necessary permissions to use this tool correctly since I would really need it in this watch.
Which watch and what is FT…?
