Nice one bro!

Do hop over the Moto 360 thread if you guys have any goodies to share regarding Android Wear...

I will visit this thread often too.

Yahoo... Finally.. Bro add owners list too please..

sure bro. i got most of the things here from 360 anyway sharing is caring

Kindly change title to "LG G Watch R Official Thread".
TY.

sure. owners can pm me and i will add your id to the list.

ok done

got mine from hk last week. loving it

Owner reporting in! azerak

reporting in~

Dilemma between this and moto 360
Any suggestion?
And if I use the watch alone, eg my phone at home, and I go out with my watch, is it functional?

owners have been added. btw, i have added more watch faces. some are paid, some are free. have a look

It does function, even without the phone. But it only shows the time but no notification, of course. It functions like a normal watch.

about the choices...that you have to figure out yourself

if you want the look.. go for moto 360.. is beautifully made~

for spec wise, performance and better screen.. G watch R is better IMO.

Just a suggestion, but wouldn't it be better to rename the thread to G Watch / G Watch R? That way, you can invite G Watch owners in as well, after all, it's a bit unfair to neglect your sibling just because they aren't round ... hehehe ...

Nice thread for LG G watch R.

For watchface app, i will prefer WatchMaker more than Facer, cos WatchMaker smooth and save battery...

Got another thread for original G Watch bro. Link: https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?act=ST&f=222&t=3349849

G Watch and G Watch R is different

I think both are good. It depends on the face creator. Those not professionally created, do not have proper awake/sleep modes, thus wasting battery.

Nice watchface. G watch R good for analog watchface, but look funny for digital watchface.

I m the one, but now try to let it go
since i need bought another iphone 6.........
Whi r interest can pm me thank you

digital faces on gwr are ok maaa, dependent on the designs, i reckon.

I like the moto360 design better actually, in particular the silver coloured unit. But i bought the R becoz of better CPU, better screen, better battery and for the likes of me i just cannot accept that flat tyre display on the 360. I would most probably have bought that gear S (i love their amoled screens) if it wasn't on tizen os.

you should have brought your G R

whats the difference with the google fit?

it will read your heart rate continuously.

anyone of you bought the watch from lazada? There is no warranty for the watch is it?

Yes, most of items bought from Lazada no warranty. very sad my friend one got scratch on body...

i got it from lazada.just have to be extra careful

that's my worry. Worry when received item already got defect then really waste the money..

u bought at lazada from GN estore? Is it sealed when received?

Box was sealed, the delivery was bubble wrapped. The watch metallic body was protected by glossy plastic skin, against scratches. No worries at all.

You guys bought from Lazada, what was the price again? Anyone can update me?

Thanks. Great to hear that. You bought from the same seller in Lazada? Now use mobile app can buy cheaper..Tempted to get it.. But not sure how come the previous poster said his friend's body got scratch.

Have ordered through Lazada already.. Excitedly waiting for delivery

i love the g watch r
i sold it after one day to a lucky guy

any1 knows where can buy different straps

Standard 22mm straps can be used. Depends whether you want branded or non branded; materials whether leather, silicone rubber, nylon, colours, etc. Can try watch shops (Casio, Swatch), shopping complex, from mudah, lelong, pasar malam, etc.

I am looking for a silicone rubber strap for those sweaty exercise purposes.

Wanted to get a new one, anyone know where to get ?

http://www.lazada.com.my/import-lg-g-watch...110-803598.html

I bought mine from the same seller from lazada. I think there's only one seller there. And yes, it was sealed. You don't have to worry about it. BTW, how much did you get it? If you use the voucher during this sale, can get around 820.

One more owner here...

My friend G watch R scratch is after used. Hit the wall, so top of bezel now shown silver body color , so ugly now. Anybody know how to repair it or spray paint on it??

Anybody can share how to protect your G watch R??

Maybe can buy the full body protection?

Accidents can happen. Maybe simply, can try to cover with a permanent black marker pen. Else, send for a respray, like those done for bicycle frames.

I don't use any protection on my devices. No screen protector or anything. Watches, phones and tablets. Watch wearing, you just need to be careful.

Yup..i got it for 819.. were thinking of getting the gear s since they have the 20% discount for note 4 owners..in d end after looking at most reviews feel that android wear better compared to tizen..summore with the discount voucher cheaper than gear s..cannot tahan

I see..i thought u meant he bought and it arrived with scratches.. by the way..is it easy to change the strap?

Changing G watch R strap more easy than Moto360.

For that price, it is totally worth it. You would be very happy once you got it. I have not changed the strap but knowing that it uses the normal standard strap, just go to any watch shop and they can change it for you.

Hi all,

FYI, EXPANSYS Malaysia is selling LG G Watch R too, but the price is much more expensive. If you buy from lelong.com.my, also by EXPANSYS it'll be slightly cheaper, but not as cheap as Lazada.

Maybe can add this piece info as an optional place to buy the watch.

Expansys also worth to buy it cos it with warranty compare to Lazada no warranty.

thanks for the info. already added this info in the first post.

yes, though they only provide 3 months warranty. but 3 months is better than nothing at all

Here is another place to get this with one year warranty.

http://www.valuebasket.com/LG-G-Watch-R-W1...iew/17530-AA-BK

has anyone actually received their G R from value basket? i can only find bad reviews regarding their service.

Recommended app, Wear Aware from play store. Find your phone, find your android wear watch. Yr watch will alert you should you leave yr home or office without your phone. Can customize ringtone. And it is free!

I'm currently order from EXPANSYS, will report back if everything gone smoothly

did you order from their website or their lelong website?

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?...eera.wearcamera

try this app guys! is fun!!!

I order from their lelong site.

already tried it.yes, really like it. its one of the apps that i show off to people when they want to test my watch

Sharing today's watch face. Any idea how to adjust the temp in facer?

Should be under Settings.

yes, already checked. but the temp reading is not displayed. is it due to sync prob?

Yeah, many other users also facing same issue. Did you try to set location manually?

I just checked my Facer app, I am also having the same issue. I switched to WatchMaker.

Just got this today



before



after



not much difference from the looks of them. which is a good thing, so that the watch face still looks the same with or without the screen protector.

Hey LG G WaR friends, I found something good on G+, just thought of sharing with you guys, even though I am a Moto 360 user.

i wear branded watch faces these days

Kick start this project!!!!!

Lol bro, its already available on Shapeways. But quite expensive for Malaysians though.

anyone wants to bulk order this item? The shipping for one item is 20USD. For ten item is still 20USD. So the more we order, the less we pay.

Hi guys, new day, new watchface to share.

Can't wait for mine to arrive

thanks for always sharing the watchfaces here where do you usually get these faces? xda?

From the Google+ Community in the link. And I usually follow the Moto 360 sub-section on Reddit and XDA too.

More for you guys! This will look awesome on the G Watch R. Should look better as compared to the Moto 360.

thats great. already using it right now. though i think i prefer yesterday's face

where did you get yours?

Finally got my watch from Expansys

Hi guys,

Anyone here knows any apps that force vibrate on watch? Even if I disable vibration in the app it self?

Congrats for your new watch! Do you mean to force vibrate your phone using your watch? Do you have mini launcher installed? Swipe to the right twice, there is an option there

This is how the vibration profile works:

If you want vibration on your watch, you MUST set vibration on the "app-setting" itself. Once vibration is enabled, even if you put "silent" on your "phone settings" and the phone does not vibrate anymore, you can still receive vibrations on the watch.

Tip: If you want to vibrate only on watch and not the phone, after setting vibration in "app-setings", go the Android Wear app, under Settings, set "Mute Connected Phone" to ON, that way whenever your watch is connected to your phone, the phone will automatically go to Global Silent, i.e. Sound and Vibration OFF.

That's the thing, I'm using Nexus 7 so no vibration, so I disable all my apps vibration setting, since beginning using my Nexus 7 LOL.

Now have to go through each of the app and enable them back

n00b question, how do i install custom watchface? need some guidance

Got it from ebay, didn't realise lazada has good deal

install either facer or watchmaker first. both links are in the first post.

oh well. you can always buy another one later when is it going to arrive?

noob!!!!

Hahaha. Don't think I'll be wearing watches on both hands

If FedEx estimation is right, it should be tomorrow

Go play store search facer.

yea after i posted the question i got the answer

stalker!
