Android Wear Launcher Porting - Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So
With Android Wear officially out, why do we only have a launcher APK from the preview emulator?
I looked through the moto 360 system dump and even played with a few apks, but the launcher had errors parsing, which makes me think some framework hacking will be needed.
Edit: I should clarify: android wear launcher for non-wear devices

I did and it would NOT stop FC'ing I almost couldn't use my phone again
Same here. I tried and it kept FCing like crazy. I'm sure someone will fix it.
Simple. Its written for the hardware. It probably uses a backend. Any 3d stuff CAN"T be done in java. It's too slow. You need to write it in C or C++. They probably used the NDK to do so.

Wouldn't install for me.
it shouldn't work unless you disable scence ui
otherwise it will keep force closing
but even then i'm not sure if the eris can handle it because it can't handle the live wallpapers and google earth

I challenge this, I did work for 3 years doing 3d visualization of optics problems (http://webtop.org). Now on the phone it is more challening but there are 3d games and such on the market that work reasonably well.
Most the the 3d games are running the NDK backend (developer.android.com/sdk/ndk/1.5_r1/index.html)

It's the same launcher dude as kk. Only the icons have changed a bit. If you are talking about ok google everywhere that's just an update of Google search and then it is activated from the server account by account.

Nobody EVER ported an ios rom to samsung or any android device !! That roms were customized to look like the ios (they put ios launcher, ios keyboard and the other apps that you can find on the play store)
What stopped them? Well since that its easy to make ur android phone look like any other phone by customization.

That's what i'm talking about!
but there is different of installing app and launcher and flashing rom that already customized, the ram usage and other settings that making the phone much more stable and faster are exist on flashing the phone to another rom

Well if they did it back then, it looks like they stopped, or never started it for the S5, so you'll just have to customise it yourself
this thread needs to be close mod opened thread here

S8 Launcher for AOSP

I have seen many devs use the reverse engineered code of some oem launchers and mixed it with some other apps to give the same effect..
Can we use some code and create a launcher based on the code of S8?

I don't think this can work, touchwiz requires touchwiz framework, aosp based Roms do not use that framework. Whether touchwiz can be reverse engineered, not very likely seeing as no one has even attempted it before even though touchwiz has been around a long time now.

Then why don't someone start? I mean, we could port Sony apps right? Sir, I mean that we can use the blurry effect and many other features on our other devices by using these apps.. I think no one ever attempted before because TouchWiz wasn't worth it. But now...

Apps and framework are 2 completely different things, a framework is the underlying structure, an app us just a single entity, it's fat easier to port an app than to port a framework, and plus people move to aosp to get away from manufacturer specific framework like miui and touchwiz, makes no sense to port it.

But Sir I feel that Samsung Launcher and music player are two great apps... Only if someone ported it.. Thanks anyway.

I don't think you quite understand the complexities of it all, but you know maybe one day someone will, don't expect it to be any time soon though.

Better UI Settings?

Ive seen other open source UIs like the current one that we have in the G7 pie and was wondering if there are any open source ones that have more options to it. Mainly right now I am just looking for a better way to organize things (folder in the app drawer) and some other few minor things. I would be nice to get rid of some of the excess bloat with a custom ui too, again if possible.
there are no custom roms except project treble which is too buggy for every day usage. all I can recommend is edxposed with gravitybox. you will need to be rooted and install TWRP first.

if you want a custom UI and not a rom look on the play store for different launchers. there's a ton to choose from.

no TouchWiz was Samsung's old UI. Motorola uses basically stock Android.
