    Hello from Germany :) I use Nova on all my Androids and so do on my DM98 too. With your video i found some nice Modification for the Watch, thanks. My favorite Clock is SENSE FLIP CLOCK & WEATHER, because it is a 2in1 App.
    Meanwhile the DM98 is an "old" Gadet, but it seems to be unbeatable since today ...

    Hey Jason, thanks for the great hint with the Nova Launcher! I only have the problem that I do not get back to the launcher if I click on the hardwarebutton of the watch - it turns the watch off. If I press it long, it only shows the menu of the OS to turn off the watch, reboot or open the launcher/back. I believe the launcher was opened when pushing the button in the first days... Do you have the same issue or any solution? To long press the hardwarebutton and then click "back" is very annoying to open the launcher.

    Great tips! Great videos! Following your steps I got my DM98 close to 100%. Battery life is decent too. Two questions, have you figured out a way to keep it from freezing on the notification screen like that? Mine seems to pop up that notification shade on its own then would freeze there. I had to power cycle it like 3 times throughout the afternoon. Also did you ever figure out a way to have the stock watch faces show 12hr instead of 24hr? It does feel a little more stable using the original OS vs using Nova. Thank you for the videos! One more thing are you still using your DM98 or have you found something new?

      @@JasonJ1968 Thank you kindly for your reply Sir but I must have a dud DM98 or I’m doing something incorrectly? No ‘gesture’ option in settings or else ware!
      I have a wide range of smartwatches (I’m embarrassed at the sheer number), the point is that I should know my way around them by now…Not so fortunate with the DM98 - it won't load the weather, has no stock GPS app, will not connect to my LG smartphone using “Funfit” as well as a whole host of other related issues.
      So unfortunate as I was looking forward to a new watch with a large enough screen to work on. Sadly, the onscreen keypad is minute and difficult, if not imposable to type on. The fact that one can’t make Bluetooth phone calls is also disappointing but not a significant issue as it can easily be substituted with Skype, Viber, etc.
      At the end of the day, I should have purchased the DM99 !

But since the battery has downloaded and since the reloaded I can no longer access the smartwatch. He asks me for this damn pin to exceed, which I repeat I never set. I can't log in anymore. How can I do to solve the problem? Is there any way to reset the smartwatch? It asks me for the pin even if the SIM is not inserted.

I believe my Android is 4.4 which does not allow to use Live Wallpaper, can you confirm me that or explain me how to fix this? Thank you. Edit: For extra information, when using Nova Launcher Wallpaper option it does not allow me to select videos, only pictures and when I try from Live Video Wallpaper it says "Live Video Wallpaper (or whatever is it's name) has been closed."

      @KasperSOlesen 6 років тому

      I had the same problem, its not related to the launcher, but an option the watch has. Its under security and is called "app permissions". I activated it and got bombed by permission notifications, and for some reason the watch does not remember when you tell it to accept or deny a permission, so it just keeps asking. Some apps seems to use some of these features all the time, making it almost impossible just to get to the settings and disable this setting.
