Root (su binary on watch)

xposed-arm-20150308.zip flashed through recovery

Adb/developer mode enabled (to install apps directly)

Install modded Xposed Installer (1_install_xposed_installer.bat) Run Xposed Installer Close Xposed Installer Reboot watch Run 2_enable_module.bat Install this module (3_install_xposed_module.bat) Wait for Xposed notification and tap to do soft reboot

This module disables the transition to Ambient Mode on Android Wear so watch faces keep rendering images (once a minute) in full colored mode instead the usual plain, black & white ambient mode. The watch still goes to sleep (screen updating Handlers are suspended). It allows you to fully enjoy all the beautiful watch faces (both stock and 3rd party).: There isn't any noticeable battery drain. With Always-on screen, the watch can still survive 2 whole days. See attached screenshot of a test when battery went during 11 hours from 100% to 78% (few notifications, Tilt to wake disabled, lowest screen brightness on LG G Watch).: It's not a good idea to use this module with OLED.Yes, Xposed framework also works on Android Wear, check my comment for details The modded version of Xposed Installer is the same as XposedInstaller_3.0-alpha2.apk, just with few Wear incompatible GUI parts disabled making it launchable on Wear. Because of disabled Action Bar, it's not possible to configure Xposed directly and installation below is required. (If you are familiar with UI coding, universal UI redesign would be helpful . So far I only did smali edits to Xposed Installer but I may try some proper workarounds/fixes later.)Manually opened/expanded notifications do not hide (screen doesn't refresh) after a timeout.Source: https://github.com/moneytoo/RichAmbient
