The KW88 smartwatch is equipped with Android 5.1
Does this mean that this is compatible with android Wear ?
Or do you have to have Android Wear operating system on the smartwatch ?
If it doesn't say Android Wear, it isn't Android Wear. Lots of low-end watches are running some build of Android, but Wear is being pretty tightly controlled by Google (they don't even pretend that it's open-source), so you really only find it on major-brand smartwatches.
I have one of this, and i agree. It's an Android 5.1 "adapted". It's possible do anything like a cell phone, BUT, few apps doesn't support the screen configuration and many things simply you can't see or touch... But you can download apps to solve this problems. For example, in Playstore you can navigate, download but you can't go back. Solution? install one app to get a back button on the screen...
I am trying to deploy app on Android device But I am not able to see the UI. My device configuration as below
Handset : Samsung Grand
OS : Android 4.2 (API 17)
in project properties I set the application Tab like this
please let me know what wrong with it. Similar configuration for Android Emulator I cab able to see the UI.
Try creating a apk in release mode and then install the apk manually.
I want to get the android device volume. In iOS exists this property Ti.Media.volume but in Android doesn't work.
Thank you.
As a workaround you can use volume control module to control device volume for both android and iOS.
I just published my app for wear devices, its the Watch Face, don't have any UI for phone app. I uploaded to the Google Play.
But it says This app is incompatible with your device. To all users or Devices.
Anyone have idea?
Since Android Wear application are only in sync with a handheld device, it needs to have a corresponding application in the handheld device.
Let me make it little more clear:
To install anything on Android Wear, you need to have corresponding application for mobile, which will sync up its corresponding wear part and install the same on wear.
So go ahead develop a dummy kind of an application for handheld.
According to the official documentation, in order to publish a wearable app without a phone app component, you need to raise your minimum target SDK version to 2.0.

I got invitation to the Android Wear Developer program but when I try to install the Android Wear Preview app I see information that my device (Samsung Galaxy S2) is not compatible with the app. Is there some kind of list of devices compatible with Android Wear Preview app?
Thank you,
You need a 4.3+ Android smartphone. Because the Notification listener functionality has been added with API level 18.
Tablets were stated to be supported but right now they're filtered out from the store. You can still manually install the APK though.
Bluetooth LE isn't mandatory - for the preview at least.
I don't think there is a device spesific restriction, but according to developer.android.com
Note: The Android Wear Preview app is compatible with Android 4.3 and higher and is not available for the Android emulator.
Edit: I think BLE is used for communication between smartphone and watch. So obviously that would be hardware restriction.
