LG G Watch R Teaser Video And Images - LG G Watch R

With LG making the move to go circular, the LG G Watch R has taken a similar approach to the smart-watch as the Moto 360. With the mass of wearable's now hitting the streets, which form factor will be most successful. Lets take a look at the images leaked so far:

I don't get the point of the compass-like bezel if you're gonna use a digital clock watchface and not an analog watchface

Of what I've read, that's not a bezel its part of the display, so could potentially be changed. I'm still sat on the fence about these circular displays, sure they look good, but we're yet to see how practical they are for text etc.
As for the digital/analogue watch face, its really down to personal preference. I often swap between the two on my Gear neo 2, depending on my activities, for me the digital is more practical, the analogue just looks smart. But as i said, personal preference, just great to have the choice:good:

Isn't the bezel where all the drivers are hidden? I thought that's how they were able to make the screen fully circular.
I was hoping to get a moto 360, but after using the first g watch I can't see how the same version of android wear will work on a circular display. I do think this looks much better that the moto tho.

Working on Custom Icons/ LP Docks

I've started fooling around with photoshop and started making custom icons and launcher pro docks. Here's a sample of some of the stuff I've made, I just wanted to get some opinions on these (kind of new at this) as I continue working on stuff and post them. Thanks!
1.Phandroid. 2.DolphinHD. 3. Appbrain. 4. Angry Birds. 5. VoiceSearch/Vlingo start listening action. 6. SkyMaps 7. Camera

I put them on my screen using desktop visualizer (1x1 for the icons 2x1 for voice actions) since just replacing shortcut image makes it look too small (on my screen at least).
+Here's a bonus lp dock (I'll probably be making one to match the icons sometime):
So yeah, any thoughts/critiques on what I've made would be appreciated .
EDIT:
Here's that matching dock
That dock is hot but I am not a fan of the box icons

Thanks for the feedback.
I'll continue to play around with photoshop and see what else I can come up with. Is there something specific about the box icons you don't like (i.e. shape, size, color, etc...) or is it just not your thing? (I decided to make the background around the icon since I was having trouble finding properly sized icon pics to work with -just copied from appbrain) I want to get an idea of what people want and don't want to see.
Thanks!
Just looking for something different than the iphone looking icons. Just not my bag of tea. The icons do look nice though. I really like the color scheme also.

(APP) "Color My Clock" - Desktop Clock with a Twist

Check out "Color My Clock" in the market.
It's a colorful desk clock and live wallpaper... I made a quick video (you don't have to check my video, but check the app out) only because it looks so good on the Nexus S true black SAMOLED screen.
Enjoy!

These are the Free Color My Clock. Check them out and let me know what you guys think.
cool concept but i need to know the exact time when im looking at a clock, and it'd be time consuming to count the individual dots or to even glance out how many there are. good job though!
Its not my app.. I just thought I share it with the community.
I think its a little different from all the other clocks. It kind of reminds me of the polar clock live wallpaper.

The cool thing that happens is you start to tell time by color. One begins look at a regular digital and change it to this colorful version. People text me that certain times are cool. This is a new method of numbers mainly to teach the young uns. Thanks for the feedback. Props to leyvatron for doing a Color My Clock review on youTube.

[THEME] Stock Music.apk Grit theme

Hi guys, I'm usually just a forum poster to XDA, but I want to achieve a Theme Maker status.
This is a Music theme based on the Stock, it should work on all Froyo ROMs, not sure about GB but you can test.
This looks a bit like Trekfan's Music app made to fit the form of the ICS Set for Froyo.
When you open you will notice a Gritty Blue look to the now playing bar at the bottom, this was made through PicsArt Android app with other things added that aren't important. When you will Guide yourself to your Artists albums that display the Unknown Album Art .png you will see that it has been custom themed to a Brown Burnt Paper while still displaying the CD.
Upon displaying the play Menu you'll see the buttons have been Sheer Effected.
I hope any and all who use this enjoy it, this was strictly made through my phone.
PLEASE IF YOU USE THIS LEAVE FEEDBACK, IT ENCOURAGES US THEME MAKERS TO ATTEMPT MORE.
All stock ICS theming goes to the righteous Trekfan.
Love XDA

Just a few things changed, I've gotta get my computer back so I've got my editing tools.
1. I can't stand the Black/Grey Unknown Artist CD display.
2. Just seen an advantage.
3. More hardcore work will come when we get the Computer and I can do Grit editing.

How does it react to the e ink screen?
In other words, does it ghost a lot?
Also, why is your post in all caps?

It has weather, battery, time, date, various shapes.
It has web gallery where other people share their creations (there is more than 4000 designs at the moment).
If you don't want to pay for editor, you can use widgets from gallery for free using https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.hubalek.android.makeyourclock.gallery.pro Only disadvantage is that you don't have editor :-(
How does it look on the nook touch?
I used sense Analog clock widget from the market for awhile. pretty complete look at what your are referencing in a 4*2 package. They also make a mini the packs the same info and graphics into a small space. These are both free from the market, and have standard features like launching an app of your choosing by pressing minutes, hours, etc.

I looked all over for WP WIDGET but I'm not finding anything that looks like the pic in post 1.

Advice Wanted: T-Mobile Mobile For My Mom With A Great Screen

For my Mom, her eye sight is getting bad. She talks and texts something fierce but lately she been struggling to see her ancient T-Mobile's screen. No data package or fancy extra's needed.
What do you guys recommend?
This is the problem...T-Mobile does not really care about people like your mother
they do not offer that many choices for near/far sighted people.
Your best choice will be to cancel T-Mobile and get her a Gitterbug phone . They offer phones designed for people with limitations and in need of big numbers and big screens without the fancy data packages
maybe the Galaxy Note i717 with xtra large fonts?
T-Mobile mobile for your mom? Sounds like a fair swap
Nah, seriously, has anyone tried the accessibility setting on Android? I've not tried it myself and just wondered if it may be useful in this case.
Edit: I just tried it - forget about that! It's totally horrible and useless. I was expecting something akin to the magnifier on Windows, but it just vocalising what you're doing and not very well at that. Clicking an icon on my homepage told me "Workspace 2 of 3" (obviously my 2nd screen of 3 home pages). Pretty pointless.
Either what MTM said or a larger touch screen phone hacked to show all apps, screens, ect on the, largest font available. I'm, sorry I'm not, more help.

Is The ElGoog following me? judge yourself
while searching for the Jitterbug site for this thread I went to YouTube watched a vid and this shows up
