Hey Guys,
probably most of you use default launcher and some some of the default watchfaces.
If You are more into personalizing your watch, feel free to share your set up here! Don’t forget to link up your apps to Play Store. Write something more 'bout your set up or just put some images.
I’ll start with my own set up for X3+.
First of all, I’m running full version of Lightning Launcher as launcher. It gives SO MUCH posibilities. You can set action for you back button on each screen/appdrawer. You can set grid (preferebly to fit perfectly into round screen), icon packs, your homescreen is actually only limited by your watch hardware. Now, I have set widget made in Kustom Widget Maker which is also my watchface.
No lock screen makes it work like stock watchface engine.
Another screen, right above watchface one, there is simple screen with stock quick settings widget (looking for some better widget). And thats all about home screen.
When press back button while on homescreen, it will pop appdrawer (action set in Lightning Launcher). For appdrawer, grid is 4x4 so all apps are visible (both in down corners are sliced in half, but still easy to hit). All unnecessary apps have “Hidden” options turned on, so they are not simply visible in appdrawer.
You would say “Hey, home button only brings homescreen up, how do you lock your screen?”. I do. With Lock Screen. Simple shortcut, tap and screen locks. Nothing more, nothing less. When you press home button while on homescreen, Lightning Launcher pops it and its locked. Simple and effective.
Keyboard is Minuum Keyboard. Its prediction is so good and it support polish and alot of other languages. Just needed to set up keyboard hight and it works almost perfectly (punctuation and backspace buttons are a lil bit cut, but I got used to hit them almost everytime).
For other apps, I have Advanced Task Killer to constantly get rid of apps running in background and keep batter usage low. I got used to it on other devices, but it’s hard to configure it on round screen, so I might find better one for replacement.
Pick of my watchface made in Kustom:
You can see the date, weekday and time. The bar between weekday and time is simple battery level.
And about better drain. There is no such if I’m not using it (only checking time and cell working with sim). Like the battery graph is almost flat. I presume it could go for straight 48 hours like this.
However I use it for music (with Sony BT headset), a LOT of messaging, few minutes of talk (also via BT headset, trying way around this nasty BT bug when call gets forwarded back to watch when someone answer my call, even when connected fully to BT headset) and constantly checking time (OMG I love this watch). And this way, battery after disconnecting 100% at 7am is around 15-20% at 11pm.
Since Kustom Widgets and LLauncher settings are exprotable I might upload them if any1 is interested.
