After taking update I got excited. Loved the theater mode and different watch faces. However two days in I'm having issues.
X1 remote will no longer work.
Gmail, hangouts, etc notifications are no longer working, rarely will get notified.
Also android wear app has issue forgetting and reconnecting to watch. Have to reboot watch to get it synced. Watch will not display the cloud with slash symbol and will act like it's connected to my phone even tho it's not online. Then after launching voice search it will finally say off-line.
So what should I do? Reset? Roll back to kitkat?
I have read some people with phones running lollipop that they aren't used to priority notifications. But my lg g3 is on kit kat so that's not my issue here.

Uninstall android wear app, reset android watch. Re-download android wear app from play store, re-pair watch with app. Start fresh...

Another bug is the voltage between pins on lollipop (we lost the lg fix), that causes deterioration; and while theater mode is activated, the alarms will not vibrate.
I didn´t have any problems with gmail, hangouts, or disconnections.
Today no issues after following reset and reinstall instructions. I have been able to receive vibrations with theater mode.
Will research this deterioration thing. Haven't heard of it.

We´re researching about this, maybe it´s not a bug really.
Wish I could stop this battery use from Google fit. It's disabled.
I obviously can't complain about battery life. I get 3 or 4 days easily with it turned off at bedtime, always on screen disabled,and brightness at 1.

LG G Watch:
Stock 5.0.2
Google Play services 7.0.95
Nexus 6:
Stock 5.1
Google Play Services 7.0.99.
Android wear: 1.0.5.1724356
The only change on the LG G watch is the addition of minuum keyboard. In any case, at random times over the past weeks I've noticed a massive battery drain where my watch will go from 80% to 20% in less then a hour with out me using it. With no indication on the android wear app as to what is causing it. I downloaded Wear Battery Stats but that has not told me anything in terms of a app that is causing it. I've tried resetting the watch and the phone but the problem continues, which makes me wonder A) if it's a rogue app B) has something to do with either Google Play Services/5.0.2 that is causing it to go crazy. My best guess after reading through the forums is that it's caused by the watch disconnecting temporarily on 5.0.2 thus making it go crazy. I am getting random "Unfortunately Android Wear has stopped" notifications at times, which I have no idea why that is happening.
Can any one help me pinpoint why this is happening and how I can solve it?
The following are the apps that I have installed on the watch:
Minuum
Wear Messenger
Amazon Shopping
Photos Watch Face
Al the cooks
Wear battery stats
weather timeline
flopsy droid
calculator
Keep
RunKeeper
Syu Wear Manager
Facer
Wear Mini Launcher
Lyft
Wear Tip calculator
IF
Calendar
Play music
Fit
Clock
Journey
maps
Wear Speaker
Cerberus
Pocket Casts
Evernote
Duolingo
Sleep wear
Reversi
Thank you in advance!
Love to help as mine is doing the same thing! Especially with a long trip using Google maps navigation on my phone. Very annoying!
I believe that it's not the apps you have installed on your device that causes the drain. For some reason when I install a new app most of the time I will get a battery drain but I found out that restarting the watch after the install fixes the issue and I'm having the same problem when disconnected, constant Force Closing. What phone is your watch connected to? I think it might be a bug with android 5.x I'm running Nexus 5 on 5.1 but before this phone I had it connected to an HTC Desire 610 on 4.4.2 and had no "Android Wear Isn't responding" message.
Edit: Completely missed the first half of your post! haha
So yeah, I think it is a bug with Android 5.1
Thats weird. I wish there was a better way then waiting on Google to fix this. Are any of you experiencing lag on your LG G Watch on 5.0.2 stock? Multiple issues I'm running into basically .
Mine too, down to 40% before lunch is over. It seemed to start with the last google play services updates.
I've tried factory resets, wiping wear app data etc. Still happens.
Also Nexus 6 5.1 Stock.
Maybe it's the memory leak from 5.0? I know you're on 5.0.2 but I am also having the same issue. Okay besides the factory stock apps like keep, timer, alarm, maps, fit, calendar, Amazon Shopping & play music? I have Slumber, tetrocrate, beelink, bidot, compass, Dragon laser, file manager, find my watch, find my phone, instaweather, instant, intellicom watch faces, invaders, new tweet, reversi, ring my phone, speeds, spooky pumpkin crush and world clock. I am thinking that I need to downgrade back to 4.4w
As the topic says, the watch won't show any google cards. It just happened out of the blue. It used to show cards like weather and so on but all of a sudden i stopped. Notifications overall works like a charm, it's just the cards. On my phone (N6P) the cards are fully functional and enabled. Everything is up to date.
What i've tried:
- Unpair the watch (also a factory reset)
- Disable and enable cards on the phone
- Re-installed Android Wear
The thing is also that if I press the Google app on the watch, it shows weather, it does not prompt for enabling Google Now on the phone. I'm so confused. I re-installed everything last night.
same problem here
Nexus 6P (newest Chroma ROM) and Huawei Watch Classic
Same for me.
Newest Google Search App (5.11.31.19) doesnt seem to help either.
OnePlus One (CM13 nightlies) + Moto 360v2
I've had contact with Motorola via e-mail and what they have recommended so far is to unpair the watch, remove Google account from phone, remove android wear, add the account again, install android wear and re-pair the watch.
Did not work for me. Waiting for further advice.
Same here.

Glad it's not just me. Hope they fix it soon.
I somehow had it working again for the last few days (dont know what made it work). But today when I woke up in the morning the watch wasn't showing the Google now card again! (Again I don't know what changed :/ )
This bug is appearing really weirdly. Hope it gets fixed soon
Mine just started working again randomly yesterday. Not sure what triggered it. Maybe an app update.
I start to believe it's intentional, the cards will show up if there is anything apart(!) from weather (in my case upcoming football matches), and it will never directly show the weather, but say something like "1 more from Google" (dunno about the english term it uses). If your only card is the weather one, it won't be there.
I am having the same issue with my watch as well. I just reset the watch and deleted the android wear app and deleted all settings and reset the phone and watch up. Still not working.
After a 30 minute phone call to Moto tech support I was told that the issue is a defective watch and they offered to send me out a replacement watch. I told them I would thank about and get back to them. I am pretty sure it is not a watch hardware issue but a software issue.
This is really bugging,
One day my Wear decided stop getting updated notifications. It simply stopped updating my Wear and when tried to delete or do actions I got an error of course.
I've tried factory resetting my LG G Watch - no luck.
Uninstalling Android Wear app - no luck.
Wiping cache and data for Android Wear app and Google Play Services - no luck.
I did of course made sure notification listener service allowed for wear app and that all permissions are allowed as required.
(also all those troubleshooting done, no luck: https://support.google.com/androidwear/answer/6090188?hl=en)
My Wear does get broadcasts as I can change watch faces or sync apps and their data.. but just no notifications.
I'm using latest Android N beta on N5X and LG G Watch with latest production 6.0.1.
Help!!!

You may just have to wait for another Android N build or go back to Marshmallow or Lollipop because it's probably a bug in the build as some other people were having the same problems.

Sorry I took so long to respond, my phone instantly died and took forever to charge back up, and my computer was down at the shop getting fixed so I had no way to access XDA. Anyway, here's one instance of someone having the same issue(s) your having:
https://m.reddit.com/r/AndroidWear/comments/4k3e4w/android_n_preview_3_notification_issues/
Once again, sorry for such a late response!
For future reference,
The issue was tracked here: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=210488
For me it has been resolved by N Preview 4
Ever since I got the most software update earlier July 2017 on my Zenwatch 2, my Zenwatch 2's battery is horrible, it barely last 10 hours with a little usage with brightness set to lowest. I did factory reset hope to fix the issue, after I did factory reset I was trying to download my watch face back to my watch, I noticed it is not showing up at all so I try download any other watch faces and none of it are showing on the Android Wear app. Currently I am stuck using only stock watch faces. Anyone else having similar issue?
You have to add the custom watch faces in face designer on the watch. Swipe left and tap add more watch faces at the right hand end of the list of watch faces. You need to also have the custom watch face app or apps installed on both your phone and watch.
You will need to go into your play store on the watch and add the custom face apps to the watch. You should see any app that is on your phone and which has a complimentary watch app in the list at the bottom of the scroll called apps on your phone.

I did do that, before the new update any watch faces I download show up in the Android Wear app, right now none of the custom watch faces I download are showing in Android Wear.
They won't. It works a bit different now. You have to use the app that comes with each one to manage them and then add them to your watch as I detailed.

I noticed only the watch faces I download directly from the Watch's Play store showed up on my watch and my Android Wear app, but any watch faces I download from Play store on my phone is not showing up on neither my watch or Android Wear, so base on what I found out is that if any of my previous purchase of watch faces didn't found on the app store on my watch that basically mean it is not supported in the latest version of Android Wear.
That could bead well. Just like anything the app developer has to update his or her app to work with aw 2.0

You must go on the "PlayStore" app on YOUR watch and look at the section "app from phone" to install faces/apps wich is yet on your phone. With Wear 2, phone faces/apps are not automatically installed on the watch. Users must install all or only the one they want.

If that the case then I will say I HATE this update, it used to be so easier if I want to download watch face on my watch I can download on my phone Play Store then it will automatically add to my watch. Also I quite sure new update rendered my Zenwatch's battery unusable, my battery drop 100% to 5% within 10 hours, I used to get to able through almost 2 full days without charging it.
Have you performed a factory reset on the watch?

Yes, twin already. Didn't helped for now I am force to turned off ambient mode and set brightness to lowest just get watch with usable battery life again though still no luck getting back the watch face "LED Time" I purchased download to my watch. I am currently addressing this issue to the developer who made that face watch so hopefully that issue can be fixed from the developer who design the watch face. I am extremely irritated with new update that screw up my watch. By the way trying find watch face on my watch by typing in name with small tiny screen was fun! (sarcasm). I wish someone would make those developers who released the latest Android Wear update to type on their Smartwatch with their life depend on it.
Turn off automatic wifi as that uses lots of power and likely you did not have that turned on with 1.5
My battery life was pretty bad for a few days after the update, but once I let it run down completely and die, then charge to 100% it was back to normal.

I hope that is the case, I charge my watch to 100% took it off the charger around 1pm by 11pm my battery life down to 5%. Since I turn ambient mode off battery seen to getting better even though I previously had ambient turn on the entire time before the update and my watch managed to last almost 2 full days.

Actually I did have my wifi turn on as well as ambient turn on before 2.0 update. that was my setting and it lasts me almost 2 days. I don't use my watch to make call or send text message, I mainly use it just to check a few notification though out the day and obviously to tell time so I don't have heavy usage on it.
The latest update to the Android Wear app on your phone.should allow watch face modding and changes once again from the app.
I hope someone can help, I have installed watch droid on both watch and phone, however when I try to run watch droid, it detects my watch and then informs me that I have and update. +++ then a big green tick appears.
When the watch tries to update I get a message . "your watch has blocked the update for security purposes" then the connection drops out.
Then i only get an option to press agree, if I press disagree or the 'X' I get "install failed" message and the loop starts again.
I was really hoping for Watch Droid phone to work as it seemed like the most useful app for the Amazfit so far.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!
Thanks internet people.
you need to install manually the apk, or use this installer:

Nope, if you wan't 3rd party devices to work correctly with you smartphone you should have bought an Android phone. If you want a smartwatch that works correctly with an iPhone your options are the apple watch, the apple watch or the apple watch.
KW88 smartwatch
If there is an option to make calls and respond to text messages on the KW88 then which app needs to be downloaded? WII watch does not offer those options. KW88 connects to both android and OIS.

If your watch's companion app on iOS doesn't do what you need, then there is not much you can do. Watch Droid works only with Android (you can infer that from its name). It should work with KW88, but you'd better try to get some help from the watch's specific forum or some Watch Droid forum (I don't know if there is one for it here on XDA). Good luck.
Works perfectly with a DM2018 (except it increases battery consumption quite a lot if you stay connected 24/24): it is the only one I found that keep the BT connection stable (the recommended FunDo in its standard version just didn't accept my phone number -that of the SIM card- as a valid one. The pro version did but did not maintain a stable BT connection. If you install from apk you must first authorize installation from 3rd party sources. I tested BT Connection and a few others: same instability.

Hello. I have some problems with watch droid. With incoming calls, I have a standard call on my watch, not a watchdroid call. How to disable the standard display of a call. In the Amazphite application, I disabled the push notifications. I forbade the Amazite to work in the background and stopped it and now the call goes through the watchdroid, but as soon as I start the amazfit all over again, and I need to go to the settings of the phone to stop it again. Each time there is no desire to do this. Can everything be made easier? And immediately the second question: how do I respond to incoming calls using watchdroid? Now only 3 buttons: without sound, reject, paper airplane (printed answer).
Thank you.
quick question...can i have both amazfit app and watch droid connected? It seems i can only have one or the other
