Hello everyone, Im very new to creation of watch faces and before this, Ive only edited the background of watchfaces but not the complications.

I tried to heavily modify one of the watch faces I had, everything looks fine on the amazfit watch face editor 2 tool, it transfers fine, but when it comes to applying it, it will auto revert to the stock face instead of this custom one. I have compiled, decompiled, recompiled to see any issues with the images but no luck. I need help solving this issue. Watch is the GTR 2e.

First of all let me tell you that I don't have GTR2e so I can only check the scritp and resource section.

from the inspection I can't find any abnormality in script "json".
but in resource images look like you use compress png
Since the device has a specific png format, it may result in the image that you compress. The device maybe unreadable.

I recommend using a normal PNG image that doesn't have compress.

The PNG I am using has the following format:

Examples that have been uncompress png

I am not sure it's can fixed your issue or not , Because I don't have real device for test.
But if it's work , your issue is "compress png "

I've narrowed it down to the AOD, the image I have set to it will cause it to not function. I've also looked into the png problem

This is the settings I use to export the pictures, I don't see much difference though. So far, if I don't have anything set as the AOD, it will work but I'm still confused why only the AOD

Let's You try to add "time" in AOD.
If I'm not mistaken In the GTR2 main screen, if there is no time section The watchface sometime , It will not be able to be activated. But I'm not sure if this will affect AOD as well.

Oh thank you, adding the time to AOD did make the watch face work. I will now keep this in mind for future projects
