wear-os

I want to make bidirectional data transfer between Android Wear and Handheld. All seems to be good except triggering onDataChanged on Handheld. It triggers only then I plug in\out USB cable, connected to the PC. So I don't understand why it's happen. Here is my code: WearListenerService on Handheld: import android.content.Intent; import android.os.Bundle; import android.support.v4.content.LocalBroadcastManager; import com.google.android.gms.common.ConnectionResult; import com.google.android.gms.common.api.GoogleApiClient; import com.google.android.gms.wearable.DataApi; import com.google

I currently have an android wear watchface developed. I however would now like to create a settings section on the host app that would allow the user to customize the watchface. I am new to the android development so I am curious on the correct way to do this. Is there a way to update a sharedpreference on the host and then push or sync that with the sharedpreference on the wear device? Or is there a totally different way I should be looking at this? You can use the DataApi or MessageApi to sync your watchface configuration between Phone and Watch devices. Please take a look at the

I'm making my first android wear app, but I can't get Android Studio working. First I got the error "Project with path ':wear' could not be found in project ':mobile'.

What do I have to do to resolve that error? Just in case it's needed: here's build.gradle : apply plugin: 'com.android.application' android

Might be I missed something but is there any flag for knowing if the clock is round or square? I could imagine that this is important if you want to design the background of the notifications. Update for API 23: To determine if the screen is round you can use context.getResources().getConfiguration().isScreenRound() Android reference Or you can use the round and notround resource qualifiers and let the system apply the proper resources but beware that this will not work on devices running API 22 or lower Source Thanks to people who pointed out this change.

we release our first Wearable Application today but sadly this one isn't get installed automatically as it should. We double checked the APK and the wearable apk is present but never hits the watch. Manually packaging the APK as suggested here http://android-developers.blogspot.de/2014/07/update-on-android-wear-paid-apps.html doesn't helped either. (We know this should only affect paid apps but just to be sure) Is anybody else facing this issue? The app works if we install the APKs over adb. Check your permissions. The Smartphone part needs to have all the permissions the Wear component has.
