Ever since the Marshmallow update I need to factory reset my watch everytime it disconnects from my phone.
I get the touch to reconnect card on the watch, launch the app on the iPhone, press it and then it says Reconnecting... and after a few seconds it says Touch to reconnect once again - essentialy nothing happens.
I have been using Android Wear with my iPhone ever since the app came out in August, and this used to work perfectly with my G Watch R and then Moto 360 2nd Gen, up until the Marshmallow update a few days ago. Sadly, this makes this otherwise perfect update, which has made the watch so much better, useless to me.
If I do factory reset the watch it pairs without an issue and works again for a day or two until I wander away from the phone. Do you guys use your watches with an iPhone and if you do, do you experience such problems as I do?
I'm having the same problem after update I'm having connection problems

Me Too!
This just started happening to me yesterday! I performed a factory wipe on my iPhone, and after going through the Android Wear setup successfully, I was connected normally. I turn off my watch at the end of each day, and the next morning I was unable to reconnect the two devices. That annoying "Tap to reconnect" card was displaying, and I couldn't get rid of it. Usually when this happens, I'm able to either turn off Bluetooth and switch it back on, or just completely restart the phone, and then the watch and phone are able to reconnect.
This is very frustrating, and I can't find a helpful thread anywhere! If anyone has found a fix, please let me know!

Moto 360 2nd gen running Android OS 6.0.1
Thanks in advance!

I have in fact found a solution for my problem about a week ago. I've spent the last few months using Aerlink and that was a miserable experience.
The solution as it turns out is even posted on Motorla's web site but I only found it there after I knew what I was searching for. Talking to their support earlier never helped and they never offered this particular solution.
All I had to do was, after a factory reset of the watch, go to the Bluetooth settings of the iPhone and just press "Forget this device" for my watch. Only then can you pair it again using the Android Wear app and have no connection problems later.
What had happened was that I had a working watch on Lollipop as it was the first time I had ever paired it to my iPhone. I then proceeded to unpair and pair it with my Android phone so I can get the Marshmallow update faster, which I did. Resetting the updated watch and trying to pair it again with the iPhone via the Wear app and without forgetting it from the settings app is what triggered my problems. I hope this was helpful to anyone who has this problem

WOW! So simple, why didn't I think of that? Thank you for the quick response as well!

I'm pairing my Touch Pro with a 2010 Kia Forte. Every time the phone connects, the car downloads the phonebook. After every call, the car decides to download the phonebook again. It's an annoying feature because you cannot issue any commands to the car to make any more phone calls until the phonebook is completely downloaded.
It's not a big deal initially, because the download only takes maybe 20-30 seconds. The problem is that over the course of time, that download gets longer and longer and having to wait 5, 10, eventually 15 minutes between making calls is a pain.
I'm on my second Touch Pro which I have owned for about 6 weeks now and I'm up to a 2 or 3 minute download. My previous phone showed all these same problems. Deleting the pairing on the phone and car and recreating it do not fix anything. Turning off Bluetooth and soft resetting the device does not help either. The only solution I have found that works is a complete hard reset of the phone and then recreate the pairing.
Does anybody know of a cache I can clear or a way to restore Bluetooth back to it's original state or any other solution beyond a hard reset? Having to hard reset the phone every couple months and get it back the way I like it is getting to be a pain.
I had the same issue with my Kia Sorrento. Sort of. While it would only need to download once each time i got in and turned the key, it was ungodly slow. I have have a Touch Pro (Raph800) on alltel/verizon. After upgrading to wm6.5 the process only takes about 30 seconds now. I am not sure, but make sure you have beam turned on. It was on by default after the upgrade and i just left it that way. Now its done before I get out of the driveway.
I have a feeling the cache getting full is the one in the car and not in th phone... See if there is any way to clean that.
The only thing I can do in the car is completely delete the pairing. This does not help the issue, because it is still slow when I create the pairing again. When I got the car brand new off the lot, the dealership said they've never noticed a phone sync so slow. The phone was a couple months old at that point and I just assumed that's the way it was meant to be. It wasn't until the Touch Pro started to develop keyboard issues and I decided to do a hard reset that I found out the sync time could be remarkably improved. I'm now on my second Touch Pro because of that loose keyboard cable which seems common to the model. This new phone would sync quickly when it was brand new right out of the box. I thought maybe I would be lucky this time and not experience the same issues, but this one is back to syncing slow again. The car just says "Downloading Phonebook" for about 5 minutes after connecting, and after any call. If I dial a contact on my phone it will go through the car system, or if I receive a call it will generally show the caller ID on the car's screen. I just can't voice dial any calls until that phonebook is completely downloaded, which defeats one of the main points of having a hands free system. I've tried also deleting the partnership in activesync to take off all the data off the phone and then recreate that it to see if maybe the data on the phone is somehow the culprit, but that hasn't helped either.
I should mention that I am running the stock WM 6.1 that came with the phone. I have a feeling that like Thelgord, WM 6.5 might speed things up. The only thing is I'm concerned this keyboard will give out on me too and I've been hesitant to attempt any upgrades while the unit is still under warranty. It's using a non-branded stock rom, because it comes from a local cellphone company as opposed to any of the big name carriers, and i haven't seen anything out there for WM6.1 that isn't branded as carrier-specific if I need to return this back to a stock rom someday. If I knew that 6.5 would solve my problem, I would do it anyways as fixing the keyboard on my own looks pretty simple.
I've also never flashed a phone before, so I'm worried that I will immediately brick it. All the tutorials seem to be assuming your phone is from one of the major carriers.
Similar issues..different phone
I'm a noob so I'm attempting to follow the rules, feel free to correct me if this is the wrong place to post this question.
I have a 2011 Kia Sorrento (which I love) and I cannot seem to get my unrooted HTC Glacier (MyTouch 4G on T-Mobile) to properly pair. Address book issues, Will not play pandora or spotify through speakers (though spotify thinks it is doing it properly) Cannot actually make a phone call EVER. I love my car and really want this feature to work. My DH's Rooted Phone (Same model as mine, were purchased together) works just fine. (He thinks this is the best car ever for riding shotgun...I want my radio back...)

I've been searching around for a solution to this issue for a long time, but seems like I'm the only one suffering from it.
My Telus S3 works great with my 2005 Acura TL for a few weeks, and then suddenly, after I go into the car, the bluetooth will connect automatically, but the Handsfree Links system within the car will stuck, showing a "In Use" message on the HUD, as if I'm making a call. And the only voice commands available are: Transfer, Send, Go back, Cancel, none of the commands go anywhere, even the go back and cancel wouldn't do a thing, as well as the "Hang up" button on the steering wheel. It will stuck in that status for anywhere around 5-20 mins, and then it'll hang up by itself and everything works fine again, I can make phone calls and everything.
The only solution I found is to go into my phone and call someone, before the call even connected, I hang up, this will "reset" the call status, and it won't stuck anymore. But this is very annoying to do every time you entering your car...
Un-pairing, delete and re-pairing doesn't help either. As soon as I pair my phone to the car, it'll stuck. I tried my old Galaxy S on my car after this happens, it works like a charm. And before I got my S3, I've been using my S1 with my car for more than 2 years and never had a problem.
So this definitely seems like something is wrong with my S3, I talked to Telus support, they said they never heard of this problem before, and they suggest me to do a factory reset, but it'll be a pain to reinstall everything so I haven't tried it yet, just want to hear what you guys think first.
EDIT: sorry, just realized I posted on the wrong forum, please move this for me, thanks.
So nobody has this issue?
bump
Just found out my friend using a S2 is having a similar issue with his bluetooth handset, and yet there's nobody on xda-developers has this problem?
hmmmm....
Sent from my SGH-I747M using xda app-developers app
There's loads on XDA with issues with the bluetooth, it's the reason this will probably be my last Samsung phone as they simply can't get it to work reliably and the same issues keep cropping up on all their models.

Yes i can see that, but it seems like people are having issue *pairing* the phone to the car, but my phone pairs with my car every single time, never had a problem with that, it's just after pairing, the car got stuck in call mode for 5-20mins..... :crying:
So this is quite irritating at the moment. Me and my mom both have a Sony Tablet S (SGPT111US/S). Now both mine and my mothers are causing difficulties right now, and both have very different problems. So I'll start off with my moms tablet since it may just need to be waited out for the problem to go away.
Mom's Tablet:
This was just a couple days ago, My mom says her tablet froze at 10:03 (like it really matters what the time it froze at is) on the cradle. She had to press the reset button to turn it off, however the unit will not Turn on or even go to the Android Recovery Menu to preform a factory reset. As of right now it is connected by the plug rather than being on the cradle. I'm hoping that this issue can fix itself since others have had this experience before and got theirs working just by letting it sit a couple days on the charger, however if you have any ideas on getting it working sooner that would greatly be appreciated.
My Tablet:
I honestly don't know what has happened. Until a couple days ago I turned on my tablet and after it boot up problems emerged out of random the second the lock screen appears every single app crashes, not once but continuously. Even the home screen will crash and continuously reload itself, so getting to any app won't be possible and even at that when i do get to an app it's already crashed and i'm back at the home screen. To help make matters worse, the tablet won't remove Apps permanently, i can uninstall them (oddly enough while every app crashes without them even starting the settings doesn't crash.) however if i reboot the tablet everything returns like nothing ever left. I have even went to the Android Recovery Menu to try to factory reset the device, but the factory resets doesn't even reset even though the ARM says it did. So i'm stuck with this crashing loop and a Non-Factory Resetable tablet. I have tried to see if maybe rooting the tablet could help, but not even the Tablet will load itself completely when connected to my Computer so rooting is out of the question as well. Also the Bluetooth and Wifi won't turn off as well.
In the end,
Both Tablets have the current update (4.0.3 RA5) and both are Not Rooted. They are out of warranty so last thing i want to do is call Sony to repair my tablets for a fee. I would also like to note my tablet has been sent in once for repairs because it was stuck looping the boot screen, so my tablet has had trouble in the past, but since then until now i have never had any problems. I will admit, i do sometimes install cracked apps, the app i installed just a day before all this happened was Minecraft 0.7.2.......I have installed it on my EVO and Walkman Z and no problems have occurred and they still have the game.
Please any help for these tablets will be Greatly appreciated. Please Will you help Me?

How's your mum's tablet doing right now? If the issue still persists after what you've tried, I'm thinking maybe just let it run out of battery, charge it back up and see what happens. Also, have you tried using the pccompanion software to redownload and reinstall a fresh firmware back onto your tab? It's a more 'thorough' reset method as opposed to a factory reset through the tab settings.
Hi guys,
I recently bought my Moto 360 2nd gen. After 4 weeks, it started to fail pushing messages through. In the beginning, unreliable, now, nothing except for. My step count....
I restart my watch everyday, disconnect and connect with my phone, factory restarted it several times. Only for 15 min, it tends to work, than, the same described above.
Now, I found out, when I wake up my phone it push messages through, and music toggles are working. Messages which are received by my phone before I picked it up will not be pushed through though.
Does anyone can help me with this issue, before I go to ask my money back from Motorola, because I start to get frustrated!
I bought it to leave my phone in my pocket, now, I have it in my hands even more:crying:
Delete
Samsung galaxy s5
Delete
I changed it, I'll let you know if it worked!
Do you have other possible solutions?
Thanks. Very much!!
Hey rocketSauce83, I've been using it for a couple of days now. I can confidently say that it is up and running how it supposed to be! Super smooth! Thanks a lot for your help and a happy new year!
same problem

hey.. i have the same problem with my moto 360 2015. i dont have any idea what you mean by delete. i have tried everything except phone reset. i tried pairing my watch with my old tablet and everything is working fine. i think it started after the latest security patch on my phone. BTW my phone is note 4 still on lollipop(no marshmallow yet) and not rooted. i need help solving, thanks in advance
update:
I have just found the cause of the problem. It was the new app optimization feature that samsung installed on my device after the latest update. i just disabled the optimization on my AW app.
Hello guys i have been wondering around google and other sites to find a solution but nothing seems to work.
So i got a new T-rex pro 2 days ago, and its a pretty good watch, but since day 1 and after all the updates i cant use it properly. It is constantly restarting and after that runs ok for a while.
It is restarting when i try to change faces from the watch. After some idle if i went to the menu and select any type of measure it restarts again. It restarted in settings couple of times. Today it restarted in the middle of my workout and at every end of a workout, when i press "save" it restarts. Sometimes it restarts when i awake the screen by turning my wrist. It restarts very often when i try to interact with it in any way. Im running ZEPP on Iphone 7 plus ( the old lady ). In system update it says i am running 2.0.4.11.
If anyone can provide some support i will be most grateful, as for now this watch is good, but unusable.
I've just bought one, and I haven't received it yet. But may I ask you, if you have hard resetted via official application. And there is a 3rd party app with a lot of extra features..You may also try resetting via that app. Or flashing official firmware again.
It’s a great watch I love it, hope you have no problems. Well I only got the Zepp app, runs as a charm. The support team through the app is great as well, they proposed to assist me with the seller and with the documents I have, I tried factory resets 2 or 3 times but didn’t work. It is interesting that after the factory reset, it didn’t prompt me to update firmware. It has been 2 weeks now since I sent it via warranty to the supplier, turns out it is rather shady shop, there are other people complaining about the quality of the tech, but so many happy customers as well.
Hopefully they will return it to me as it was at least, and I will try these workarounds, but this will be in 2 more weeks I think. They said they have 30 days rights to take a decision
ı hope you get your watch soon and fixed
