What do you mean by samsung original design ??? My gear is original designed and my phone too
the clock display on first screen does not show anything (no battery level, no notification counter , no steps , no date ). like in the screen shot !!!
Until i touch the screen
Original is for me the design installed when you buy the watch not the one you add
And that's the way it 's,,no adds,,just original design
It is when you select "Display" "Activate" : Clock or Last Screen in setup.
When it is Clock you have a dimmed clock when activate, otherwise with Last Screen you have Color ****.

It seems that HTC has deleted the old Sense desktop clock I had on my Dinc. I have tried several new clocks but they all have a backlight in the dim mode that is very bright in a dark room and I assume it also consumes a lot of battery.
Does anyone know a clock app that has a "black" screen, meaning not backlit, that also turns off the red LEDs. I have tried Desktop Plus, Alarm Clock plus, Clock Saver, etc.
I tried to find something like this as well and just ended up using the stock alarm clock and turning the screen on the phone off when I go to bed...
Look for Relax and Sleep in the market. I don't use it for an alarm but it has a nice desk clock mode. Doesn't seem too bright at night to me either.
Thanks for the input. I tried the app and it is still pretty light in the dark--again it is backlit. However, this app made me think about Lighting Bug which is similar (also a sound machine). I opened it and it has a number of clock mods you can do and it might be the darkest screen yet.
I use Locale with the shortcut plugin. I tell it to turn the brightness down to 20% when docked and it's after 9pm. I also have it launch the clock app. The combination works great.

I use Kaloer Clock and its awesome...tons of settings and its free. I have an orange led alarm clock with no backlight and 10% brightness.....works perfect and also has a screen saver setting to prevent burn in(although i dont know if burn in is really an issue on this phone..any thoughts?) Def check it out though
Interesting. So you guys are talking about being able to always see the time?
Yeah, might worry about burn in but that would be handy.
Thanks for this Kaloer Clock app. This one looks like a winner. It has the darkest screen, most settings, screen saver, and button lights out. Can't ask for more than that and it solves my problem.

Thank for showing me this app. It has the darkest screen I've seen, a lot of custom settings, and is exactly what I was looking for. I put it on 1% dim, dark blue letters, no button lights, full screen, and keep screen on--it's a winner. It'll be sweet dreams tonight.

There's no burn in on LCD screens

Plus, the default clock app has the time show as a screensaver after a set amount of time.

Wow, this is exactly what I was looking for but I thought HTC had removed it. I just never waited long enough for it to take effect. Simple with the darkest screen. I do wish there was someway to activate it sooner but the screen is dark, time moves around the screen, and it turns off the buttons.
Thanks
I have found Gentle Alarm to work well. Was free a while back on Amazon's FAOTD. I use it on both my Touchpad and Rezound when we travel.

Well, I think they call it "image persistance" or something. I've seen it on LCD monitors at work. I work on software that has a constant image (not a pic, but the software layout stays in one place) on one of the monitors and while most of the icons did not have a burn in, if you were at the desktop you could see a distinct line across the screen where there was a separation of screen elements on that monitor. So when watching a quicktime on that monitor's desktop level you could see a horizontal line through it. I don't know why just that one line showed up since the icons are usually permanent (they can be changed but usually once someone programs their setting that's what they use). The only thing is those are clicked and the button changes when that happens so maybe that's why.
Anyway, I'll wait for reports back before I use one of these clocks with my phone.

That sounds good, I like that it moves on the screen. I can't find out how to activate it though. Where are the settings?
If you go to the HTC Desk Clock (not the dock) and just leave the screen open, in about 5 minutes the small night clock will automatically start and the button lights will go out. There are no settings that I am aware of.
Sadly, after trying night clock last night, it is backlit like all the rest. The backlight is very bright in a dark room IMO. I just got out my old Dinc, went to the Desk Clock, and it has a button toward the bottom of the screen that lets you activate the night clock. Also the background is absolutely black, not backlit.
Still trying to find that dark screen with clock!!!!!
I put my phone in the Samsung dock to charge overnight. It goes first to Desk home screen then to a clock that moves around. This is the desired behavior but the clock screen is too bright. How can I dim JUST that one mode? I don't any of the other modes to be dimmer.
TIA

Bump again... I appreciate that this may be below the technical interest level of the many great contributors to this forum but my wifie is about to insist that I put the phone in a drawer at night.

You could try the app 'screen filter'. You'd have to manually turn it on and off, but might do what you need.
Thanks... I was hoping for an automated feature. I can dim it manually each time now. This phone is so good it is hard to imagine there is not a setting or tweak that can't handle this but I still haven't found it. For that matter I can't even find the settings for night time (bedside) mode.
Thanks again.

I'm noticing that whenever I use a certain watch face (for example one that I had to install like the Calendar watch) I notice that the entire watch is not displayed in the face when I move my arm to check the time. Instead I just see a basic time display in white numbers. I was wondering if samsung did this on purpose to conserve battery power or is there a way to change this somehow?

Have you tired watchStyler for gear S
Yes I have tried watch styler, but found the issue could be corrected if I went to settings -> wake-up screen -> last screen.
Change display setting
Just change in display settings to show last screen, not show clock on screen wake up.
I am using the stock clock (the first one) and notice that on gesture wake up, I don't get the battery/date/notification info and don't see the second hand either, unless I tap the screen.
Is this normal?

If they just had the date show up too, that would be great.
Hi
I have several questions :
1. I already experienced that the night clock doesn't appear instantly when you put the watch onto the charger. Sometimes it takes a time till it appears.
2. What about screen burn from the night clock? I read about it in the forum for the first gen moto 360. Is it still a issue with the 2nd Gen 360?
3. There are wear developer options in the developer options. And there is the option "burn-in protection" (I hope it's called that way in English, I've got it on German) but it won't activate even after reboot as it tells me to do.

I disable the night clock by turning on theater mode (double click the side button). But I do this because it seems to fix the heart rate monitor from tracking the apparent 100BPM of the charger lol.
I use the Slumber app that automatically turns the screen off as soon as you place the watch on the charger.
I don't think there will be any burn in issue, since Moto360v2 have LCD screen. Burn-in have place on OLED screens only (Huawei Watch for example) since they have organic diods which degrade over time. LCD don't have this issue at all because they have one backlit light for all pixels and 'rotating' pixels. With LCD screens nothing is affected by the picture on the screen (technically). With OLED screens each pixel emits light on its own, therefore degradation of pixels is dependant on the picture on the screen (whether this particular pixel emits the light most time or not) = burn in.
Therefore night mode on Moto360 can be used safely for as long as you wish.

Hola
I tried this slumber app but it did not turn my screen off during charging. Yes, I did launch the app from the watch and ensured that it was enabled.
Am I missing something?
Thanks.

The button to enable/disable Slumber wasn't very intuitive to me. I actually disabled it when I wanted to enable it, so you may have the same problem. Try toggling the setting the other way around.
also, incase anyone noticed, slumber only puts a black overlay on top of the clock. the screen is still lit up at night, but it's black. incredibly stupid on Motorola to not let us shut off the screen.

I put my watch in Theater mode (swipe down from the top, then swipe left) and the face stays off until I remove the watch from the charger and press the button to wake it.
When unlocking the screen the clock widget takes a moment to change from the old time (the last time I unlocked my phone) to the new one. Like the phone isn't updating the clock widget when the screen is off. Is there any solution?
Recently I noticed this happens with the call app too it takes a moment to update the logs.
If you're in a call and the screen goes off if you turn it on again it takes a moment to update the call timer
