Could somebody help me to get Active power save mode of Smartwatch 2 working?

I would like to change the SampleControlExtension from SDK 2.0 to use low power support, but it seems to be ignored. How do I completely turn of the backlight in Smartwatch 2 like in the Watchface to allow longer battery lives?

The SmartWatch 2, and the current emulator version, does not currently support low power through the Smart Extension APIs, but it will be added in the near future. I will try to update in this thread when it is fully available!

Low power mode is available in recent SW2 firmware.
Just add following override method to your RegistrationInformation class(your class must inherit base class from SmartExtensionUtils):

@Override
public boolean supportsLowPowerMode() {
    return true;
}

In low power mode extension doesn't stop when screen off by timeout. Extension will be displayed in monochrome mode.
