Hi Eric . Do you see any upcoming issues with the new Lemx with your new launcher due to screen size and flat tyre ? Thankyou

No it should be ok, we’ll know soon when we’ll see the first ones be available. But if any issues, i’ll be there.

Bonjour,

Power Button doesn’t work to close the screen … only to turn on

THOR S

Can someone help me please ?


Do you think my launcher has changed the power button system behavior ?

With stock launcher it works

Hi ricktop,

The launcher is working great on my Allcall W1. The new widget is excellent and has made the entire experience very seamless!

One suggestion (feature request) - would it be possible to have the option where “long press” on the clockface and “double-tap” on the clockface is disabled? I constantly seem to accidentally enter the change face mode, or the edit/settings screen. If this could be accessed via a menu inside the app, rather than via the watchface itself then it would be great.

Keep up the great work!

I have exactly the same problem on my LEM4. Stock launcher for the first press reacted like a button back, and only if you press again - then the backlight turned off. Universal Launcher certainly did not change the behavior of the button, but I have an assumption that the stock launcher has a timer, the countdown of which begins when the user presses it for the first time, and if for another 5 seconds (for example) another click is pressed, the screen turns off. At this point, Universal Launcher performs a “backward” function and immediately turns off the screen in one click.

Yes, then how it works now for me is also very inconvenient … It would be nice to provide such a timer for this button, at least as an option.

The problem is that i don’t do anything with power button, i only intercept the action to make the launcher sleep properly. I can’t change a power off action into something else, it’s a system behavior…

I’ve installed the new launcher on my Q7 and after a while with no action, to watch powers down. I don’t have this problem with the previous version.

hi have a question integrated chronometer app after app launcher with left swipe - how to set watch/app in way that when time is finished from counting from XX to 0 some alarm will beep or something ? currently when time is 0 until I'll not turn-on screen there is no sound; when screen change to ON then alarm; thanks

Right, on Android 5 watches it works, but not on Android 7... As usual, they must have done something to stop background apps...

but i do have KW88 so it's android 5

Guys, please understand that the launcher makes no difference at all to the power button behaviour.
The app contains no code for the buttons and so if there is something going on it means that there is either another app installed that is conflicting with the launcher or the correct permissions have not been applied during the installation.
For example - if the permissions are not applied correctly and you press the button to take you bake to “Home” it will not function correctly because it is not allowed to invoke the home screen
So my recommendation is to uninstall and re-install and double check the app permissions.
If you can’t see all the permissions install “settings search” from the play store and use it to get to the menu.

Hello. There is one question - After updating the launcher to the latest version, after the clock is reloaded, all the widgets fly off, and they can not be put back. No reboots help, only the reinstallation (with full removal) of the launcher helps. What could be the problem? On the previous version, this was not. On that version, the dials “broke” after the clock was rebooted, but the widgets were set normally. Now it’s vice versa - Dials do not break, and widgets are not put. Or can it only my watch such a problem?
Thank you in advance for your response.

Newest Universal launcher and LEM7 problems observed:

ricktop

When the Universal Launcher is installed the watch is no longer able to connect to a 4G network, only 3G.
You are unable to change ‘Wrist turn on timeout’ as the slider is wedged between 2 buttons and can’t be selected.
If you change the DPI setting it steps down to 80dpi (and seems to hang sometime for up to 50 seconds on the way)and if you select the button one more time the launcher crashes and you are unable to start it again. Have to uninstall and install the launcher from scratch.


Update: Actually this was UL 2.5.9 not 2.6. but it seems to be the same problems.

In fact, i intercept the HOME button action and can lock the device if needed. I don't recall why i do that (maybe there was a watch without power button ?). So, i can remove this if no one needs it...

Trying to figure the same thing out, how to increase the DPI?

I am currently running a QW08 and installed your app. when I press the power button to put the device to sleep, it will only flash a black screen when I try to wake it up. I downloaded version 2.6. What might be the cause for this and how can I fix it? Thanks.

The Dpi button is there for that, use it until you find the good one.

You mean it flashes a black screen when wrist gesture ? Have you reboot your watch ?

WARNING !! On the Lem X the launcher does not display properly. I’m not sure i Can do anything about it, it looks like a system restriction.

To bad, maybe Pablo11 can contact Lemfo to see what you can do, I really want your launcher in my LemX

Yes. I rebooted my Watch and it would start flashing a black screen after two timeouts. This only occurs when I am running the launcher and have placed it as a device administrator.
