Country Flag Image
Locate the country flag image, then convert and download the image to Base 64 using Base 64 Encode and Decode.
JSON
Create your JSON code in a text file.
Example json file:
{
"languages": [
{
"locale": "en_GB",
"flag": "base 64 encoded image"
},
{
"locale": "es_ES",
"flag": "base 64 encoded image"
}
]
}Once you’ve created the file, save the text file as config.json. Connect your HMT to your computer using a data cable, then transfer config.json to the following location: /<storage>/realwear/com.realwear/languageselector/config/config.json.
If you are unable to locate this file path on your HMT, create a new folder to match the path outlined above.
