[Q] Apps missing from watch

I've just set up a fresh phone, downloaded all my apps to it and set up my G Watch R and some apps are missing from the watch. Facer, Pujie Black, Talon and a few others. When I go into Wear App Manager it says they're just not installed on my watch and resyncing apps through the Wear phone app doesn't seem to be doing anything.
I had this issue on my previous phone too, most apps would install fine but a few would just not make it to the watch. Is this a common issue? Anything I can do to fix it?
(I should add I've trued uninstalling the apps from my phone and redownloading them from Google Play but it hasn't made a difference)

I think that the app just haven't been transferred to the watch yet. Just give it more time, Bluetooth LE can be really slow
Try to restart your watch after you sync it.

It's definitely not just me being impatient, it's been 5-6 hours since I set the watch up and these few apps still aren't syncing. I used my phone on my previous rom for a couple of weeks and still had a couple of apps that hadn't synced up. I feel like there must be something stopping them because just waiting isn't helping. I've tried resyncing and restarting with no luck.

if you have change your ROM do you have google API on it?
Do you know what versions of Google Play Services you use in watch and in phone?

I've had the issue in the past with a OnePlus One on stock ROM, OPO on an unofficial CM12 build, my current Galaxy Note 4 on an unofficial CM12 build and also my Note 4 which is currently having this issue on the stock ROM. Phone has Google Play Services 6.5.99 which is presumably the most up to date and my phone is on AW 5.0.1.

If you have adb, can you check log messages (from WearablePkgInstaller) when synchronizing apps?
command is:
adb logcat WearablePkgInstaller:I *:S
at sync, You should see all the package install intents.

[Q] Alternative to Android Wear, using a wear device without Play Services

Hi, I recently got a Moto 360 as a present. But sadly, I soon came to the realization that you can't run Android Wear without GAPPS installed (I'm running CM10.2). I'm not going to install Google's spyware just so I can use a watch.
Are there other Apps that work with AndroIid Wear Devices? My smartphone does support Bluethooth 4 and BLE. A little bit digging showed me that some dedicated people got some functionality to work on their Iphone without Google Services. Alos when I install the Pebble App it recognzes my phone (but can not connect)
I really just want to get notifications to my watch, control music , set an alarm and maybe get my pulse data on my phone. Are there third party apps that can do that?
The person who ported the Android Wear functionality to Iphone has a Github repository of his Iphone app under shiitakeo/android_wear_for_ios . If there is no option I will have to write my own app and I'm going to orient myself on what he did there.

So you are looking for an app to connect your android phone to the iOS wear connect app on moto360? And not android wear app?

I'm looking for a third party android app that lets me connect my Moto 360 with my Phone aCyanogenmod 10.2 without gapps installed.
Without gapps I can't install the offical Android Wear app. Taking a peak in the IOS world shows me that it' s possible to do that with a device that supports Bluethooth 4.0 and BLE. The Pebbles app also recognizes my watch but does not let me connect it, this tells me that they must use a similiar protocol or maybe even the same. My question is, if someebody already did write such an App, that lets you connect your Android phone with your smart watch (without installing gapps!), or if I have to do this on my own. (I'm a software developer but never did anything with Bluethooth or much in Android.)

I'd also like to find a non-gapps solution for this. Have you found one?

Wear OS App on Android Go Device possible?

Hi there,
today my new Skagen Falster 3 (Wear OS) arrived, but my problem is, that my Samsung Galaxy S7 is broken and my currenty device is a ZTE Blade A5 2019. It seems like this device is using Android Go instead of the normal Android (i currently dont know what the technical/software side difference is and i cant find any information about that) and the wear os app is not supported there. I downloaded the apk from the internet but i cant start the app.
I want to wait 1-2 month till i buy a new phone, so is there any way to install the wear os app on my phone? Every way is ok for me, rooting/installing another android version, installing some additional google aps, etc. even when the device slows down. Im looking forward to any help and really appreciate it.
Thanks.

Only custom firmware. I have trying same on Redmi Go. Disabling Go in build.prop didn't help.

Updating Google Play Services After LineageOS installation

Hello Community,
I have a weird one here - hoping someone can help -
Couple months back I bought myself an OnePlus6T phone and came here for help to successfully install LineageOS onto it. I would say it was the most fun but challenging install that I have performed but with your help, I was able to do so - Thanks.
Phone has been running great under LineageOS with excellent battery life. Been using F-Droid / Aurora Store when needed (mostly for work related Apps). Lately I got into a game that is similar to Pokemon GO and ran into an issue. The game was installed from apkpure since it was not found with Aurora Store.
The game works just fine. Boots up and able to play the game, walking around interacting with the environment. Except for some of the items in game are not clickable. Reached out to their support and with some troubleshooting, couldnt figure out the issue. Nobody has claimed this same issue. Same version that is the most recent. Since I still had my old phone, I installed the game on there (via Google Play Store) and it worked 100%. This phone is officially on Tmobile OS, believe Android 10.
So it had me thinking of what was different between the two devices. Obs the OS's are different, but the main factor that I couold think of was that when I installed LIneageOS on the OnePlus6t, i didnt install Google Play Services along with. Grabbed an apk of it, updated it and the game is still acting the same - cant interact with some of the objects in game. Through phone activity, I do get the notification pop stating "Google Play Services has crash" with two options, close app and app info.
Overview :
Objective / Issue - Geolocation game works but not 100% since some of the objects in game are not working, most are
Tmobile Phone - Running Official Android 10 - game installed from Play Store - works 100%
OnePlus6T Phone - Running LineageOS 18.1 - game installed manually, boot and runs but not all objects are intractable
Questions - Can i install Google Play Services separately through TWRP?
Which version would I install? Is there a slim down version of Google Play Services to only install the service and nothing else?
Is there a way to fully, and I mean Fully backup my data for a factory reset so i can install Google Play Services?
Would installing Lineage MircoG be a possible solution?
I know its a strange issue / request but hopefully a simple solution. Not sure if I can just install Google Play Services through TWRP and that would work but that would be the simplest and I wouldnt lose any data
Any help would be greatly appreciation,
Thanks,

Fossil GEN 6 how to block Wear OS3.0 update?

Hi,
My new fossil gen 6 take Wear Os 3.0. It,s horrible! most fuctions are gone!
Some functions like sync google fits are missing, i can't check sorage space or battery consumtion by apps...
but worst is totally impossible to manage google callendars or notifications!
ofcourse Wear OS app stop working and smatrwatch want fossil app. Fossil app and similar like Michael Korse app dont have many functions!
upgrading to 3.0 is a disaster!!!
Now I want to buy new with preinstalled wear os 2.x version, but question is how I can disable update to version 3.0 until all functions are back?
Cheers!
