GTR screen glitch - Amazfit

Boot screen is fine but all others are as shown in photos. I've had the watch about 2 weeks.
Any thoughts? The most recent update was the one that gave the option of an analog option for the always on display

Everything fine , U need to wait, until your next update..... or restore factory setting...

I did a factory reset, no luck still has the problem
shipping back to gearbest this weekend for a replacement

[Q] TITAN II rear camera problem.

Help. I reset my T2 a couple days ago and after the reset my rear camera doesn't work. When I start the camera it just shows a black screen then times out. As far as I know I haven't dropped it.
Any ideas? I called HTC and they need me to send it back for warranty. I don't want to be without a phone for 2 weeks.
Same Issue
You are not alone. I had noticed the camera working intermitantly and I have not did a hard reset. I was thinking it was an app. that did this. Please let me know your findings and Yes two weeks with out a phone doesnt work for me...
Have you tried this?
Have you tried going into the settings menu and swipe over to applications and then scroll down to Picture+Camera, then scroll all the way down to the bottom and there is a reset camera button. Hit that and see if it does anything.

SOLVED - Wrong date & time

Hi
I switched off the smartwatch two days ago with half battery, and now that I switched it on and connect it again with the same smartphone it has a wrong date & time, 1 Gen. 1970 1:00AM.
I rebooted, disconnected (not unpaired) from smartphone, press the reset button and restart, but the date & time remain the same.
How is it ?
I am on 5.0.1
Thanks
Woody
PS:
I rebooted the phone and now everything is ok.
Very very strange, no?
Had similar issue today showed 1st of month and random time. Normally after a few seconds watch catches up and displays right details but not today. Tried everything only a phone restart solved it
My Lg G Smartwatch has the wrong date & time
My Lg G Smartwatch has the wrong date & time.

Thanks. This is the second time this has happened to me and a phone restart seems the best and fastest way to correct the problem.
BTW, the watch was 4 hours ahead

My watch his telling me random time. I'm getting email/facebook/linked in updates instantly, but my watch is telling me its 6.15am on Thursday 6th of January and then 4.22am on the 2nd January (the time here in Sydney is 12.55pm!). Then occasionally is telling me the actual time.
Its haunted!
I cannot understand why there is no option to set the clock manual on the watch
Time and Date WRONG (Follow Steps)
Well it happened to me today and I just took my phone went to android wear app connected my watch to my phone on android wear I went to setting and pressed resync data and it was pretty much fixed

Screen turning on repeatedly

Hey everyone!
I picked up a Gear S about a week ago and until today, I've had no problems. I took the watch off charge this morning and everything was working as fine, used some apps etc, no issues. Then I checked my phone for updates and saw that the Gear Manager app had an update and I installed it. Since then, the screen on my Gear S has been constantly turning on and off. It will turn for about 9 seconds, then switch off and back on 2 seconds later. Turning the screen on manually works but everything is pretty much frozen. I can periodically get as far as the pedometer (because there's an icon for it on the home screen) or to the Apps menu but no further and then the screen will switch itself off.
I'm not sure whether an update to the Gear Manager app should affect the watch itself but I know that when I wiped my phone a few days ago and went to set up the Manager again, it factory reset the watch so I assume there is a direct connection between the software. I've tried disabling both Bluetooth and the remote connection to check if Gear Manager is causing the screen to behave strangely but it's still turning on and off. It's impossible to do a soft reset through the Gear S itself as the screen switches off before I can get to settings and I've tried doing a hard reset but nothing works.
I tried searching on Google for anyone having similar issues and the only thread I can find was posted on Android Central (yesterday I think) with a few people saying that they're having the same problem which makes me thing that the update to Gear Manager is the issue.
Edit: The only screen that doesn't seem to be affected is the PIN lock screen. Screen switches off there as normal and does not come back on.
Edit 2: I've never reset the Gear S before (and I only noticed the factory reset mentioned above after it was finished) but when I attempt to do a hard reset, the watch just reboots as normal without anything happening and all info / data is still there. I presume this really shouldn't be the case?
UPDATE: I'm an idiot / Samsung's instructions on how to do a hard reset are awful.
I decided to Google how to do a hard reset and discovered that when in the Recovery Menu, you need to hold down the Power button to choose an option (Samsung's instructions just tell you to press the Power button until you highlight what you want and I assumed it would automatically choose that after a few seconds because the phone would restart for me). Watch is now factory reset and so far the screen issue appears to be resolved. Another four hours of transferring music it is then.
@BOZG can you post a link to that thread?
I have the Same problem. Sometimes changing a clock face or installing/uninstalling a program seems to make it stop. I have yet to find a good consistent solution. Restarts etc. don't help. Hard reset will fix it but last time I just changed settings on and off and powered the phone on and off and eventually it stopped.
It seems related to when the phone is connected remotely over a cell network. I have the AT&T unlocked with a T-Mobile regular line, not the wearable line since I have a 5 for $100 business plan and the 5th line was not being used. Doubt that makes a difference though.
Followup:
Just now I had the watch off and charged to 100%. Powered up with phone off. Same issue. Watch face loads, the hands change to the current time, then it slides down the screen and looks like a reload because when it comes back up the time isn't correct. The hands reset to the right time. This happens a few times. I power the phone up. Bluetooth connects. I open the gear manager on the phone and it stops.
Will try to repost if that's repeatable. I hope they fix it because it burns quite a bit of battery when it happens. It gets warm so it's running the CPU a lot whatever it is.
allow to power down

samsung gear s screen on and off..looping
There you go. Not much to read there though as it's just me and OP. The problem re-emerged for me after a few days again so I was forced to do another hard reset to actually use the watch. I noticed it when I woke up in the morning and noticed that another update had been pushed to the Gear app. That's twice now that this has happened shortly or immediately after the Gear app was updated.
I haven't been able to uninstall an app / change clock face to see if it works as the watch is completely unusable when it happens to me. The Gear app registers that it's connected but it's impossible to change anything from there either and if I turn the watch off and back on again, the Gear app will no longer connect.

Not sure if I've actually tried letting the battery drain. I'll try that the next time it happens (if it happens).
I had the same problem after the update, a reboot didn't solve the problem. Eventually the battery drained. After a recharge most is fine but I never know which watch face will suddenly appear.
Same issue again. Didn't see the Gear app updating but there was an update released the day before. Going to switch off auto-updates and see if it definitely the problem. Just seems too coincidental that this problem starts right after an update is released for the Gear App.

Started doing it again yesterday so let the battery die and charged it fully and it didn't help. Left it on the box overnight and brought it to a Samsung Service Centre this morning and of course it was working again when I took it out of the box! Left it with them anyway so I'll see what happens.
I've had my Gear S a few weeks and it has also started doing this, I will give some of the suggestions here a go.....
EDIT: So opening the Gear Manager App once Bluetooth was connected brought my Gear S back to life. Phew!
It's only entered this state after I turned it off at night and then turned it back on in the morning - so it had been off roughly 8 hours. Upon turning it on the screen would cycle from the right time and notification numbers and the wrong time and wrong notification numbers too off again.
@ BOZG - Just wondering if you got your S back yet and if so, were they able to tell you what was causing this on/off problem. Mine just started doing it yesterday.
Also, how did you find the "Samsung Service Centre"?
holding the screen seems to cause it...
Had to send mine to Samsung for a new charging cradle and they updated the software to latest, when i got it back it seemed fine. Then i was messing about with it and was holding the screen to my chest for a while and that seemed to cause it to happen. It seems to be the screens gets too much activation and it flips out. I think this is what started the problem last time it happened.1
Switching to power saving mode seems to fix it for me... have to wait until it gets low on battery and when the low bat warning comes on, switch then... leave for a bit then switch back to normal.
I called Samsung Thursday and they sent me a UPS label and told me to send the watch, charging cradle and AC charging cord back in for service. She told me it takes about 7-14 days. We shall see.
Happy to have found this. </rant>I'm starting to get enough of this Samsung stuff. I had the note 2 and now I have the note 4 and gear S. That is mote then 1000 euro of equipment. And today when I tried the restore to fix this, both the phone and the watch rebooted. Crazy that they can not build good software and hardware for this price. </rant>
To me it seems that is freezes somehow when this happens. It kept jumping back to 22:10 time and changed to the watch-face and settings keep rolling back. It seems to happen to me, when the watch is off for some hours. The samsung way... no update to fix this.
solved for me
hi first of all sorry if i do any mistakes because English is not my language
i had similar problem and i found the solution at least in my case . THE PROBLEM IS NOT WITH THE GEAR S
all was ok using 4.4.2 kitkat on my note 3 before few months i upgrade with lollipop 5 official from sammobile via odin
from that moment the problems begin with the reconnection of the gear with the note
long time to connect and no auto reconnection only manual by turning off-on the bluetooth
i was boring to do format to the note3 so i left it as it
few weeks ago probably of gear manager update the gear start freezing and the screen turning on and off
first i do a factory reset and the gear was ok for a while but after it do the same but the next time the screen was not ok the colors was different so i send to service in Athens
the service in Athens is very fast and very helpful , is one of the reasons that i will difficult go with other manufacture , so they return me the gear saying that they change the motherboard and now there is new imei
but the gear that they send me was brand new except the band and the box. BUT after some time the same problem ..... i call them and they tell me to send it back so i send it and i receive it again but this time the say that the watch is ok
GUESS NOW .... i turn it on and after a while of the connection with my note AGAIN the same problem the screen on and off and freezing plus was overheat underneath
i was ready to call them and to say few words but they was closed ..... then i search the net and i found this post and i thing probably is not the gear the problem ,no hardware problem, i decide to do a test
i download the last working rom to my phone 4.4.2 and magically the problem disappears .... but now there is a software update on my phone lollipop 5 so i do the update and i was ready if the phone cause again the same problem
to return and stay with 4.4.2 But now all is ok the problem solved .... now is more of 24h and all are ok
i hope this will work for you also
Same problem
I have the same issue exactly - Note 4 with latest lollipop upgrade - it is very frustrating......I don't particularly want to have to move back an OS just to use the watch !

Ok but doing a downgrade and all working ok you can do update again.... i am not with 4.4.2 i went to the latest 5.0 for me now and all are ok.
Maybe something was wrong with the update procedure.
UPDATE
the touch function of the 2nd gear stop working so i send it back and they send me new device
for a few days all was ok . But today when i restart the phone while the gear was disconnected the problem with screen turning on repeatedly appears again .
for sure is not problem of the gear , this is the 3rd device in my hands, something is wrong with the gear manager software .
i have also reconnection problems .... if the phone is far away and they lost Bluetooth connection the most of the times i must reconnect manually , the gear say disconnected but the note think is still connected
I wonder has anyone tried to reset the watch as a stand alone device and see if the problem happens? I know you might lose a lot of the blue tooth functionality but I think I will test it and see if the problem still happens.

Second screen not working?

Has anyone experience the second screen not working all of a sudden? Mine is just dark with the main screen both on and off. I tried toggling the second screen on and off from the setting, reboot, battery pull, and wiping cache and dalvik but so far none worked.
It's not a hardware issue, I think, because when I open the camera, the second screen comes on for the camera Settings. Also, when in twrp, the second screen is also on as a part of the whole display.
EDIT: I can actually see some light bleed from the second screen with the main screen off. It's just not displaying information it should for some reason.

I just got mine, and something I did in the course of adding/changing/modding did the same - I lost my second screen when the phone was off, but when it was on I had my shortcuts. I wound up factory resetting and re-installing/re-configuring my apps... knock on wood, everything works just fine now. I think mine failed when I unfroze an app in Titanium that it marked for me.
About the only thing that I did before I lost the second screen is installing a game from the play store. I have uninstalled it, but still no luck. I most likely will factory reset and if that doesn't work, I'll flash stock rooted rom... And set my phone up yet again.

Same symptoms
I am on stock, albeit rooted. I froze a few apps, but I have also rebooted multiple times before the second screen disappeared, so I am not sure how anything I have done this far could be the cause.
Because I saw I am not alone, I started to do some digging. It looks like the app is located in /data/data/com.lge.signboard, which actually has symlinked directories. Not sure if its a clear indicator of the issue, but most of the directories are empty. Definitely odd.
I'll load up SSHd later and see if I can investigate more.
Did the factory reset and now the second screen works. I'm sincerely hoping that this is not a regular occurrence. I haven't liked a phone so much since galaxy s2.

I also had my second screen go funky. Haven't factory reset but I'm going to. It seemed to happen as I was also defrosting and refreezing some LG things, mainly services and such and not apps that you interact with per se. At right about the same time I noticed something else strange. When plugging the phone in, it takes several seconds for it to realize it whereas before it used to be instant. Also, the camera is very slow to load and change from the front to the back ones.
So I got a little bored
And fired up adb logcat to see if I could find anything. I don't yet know if it's related or not, but there is a message
Code:
I/[SystemUI]MiniStatusBar( 5541): signBoardWindowShow() requested but unavailable. Hide MiniActivity.
that shows in the log.
I to tried clearing cache and dalvik or art or whatever to try to get the second screen back no avail.
I'm having the same issue. Any update on this?
I too am interested in this, I had this issue occur too when I froze some applications (system apps) that I didn't think were necessary. Unfortunately once you freeze the component it blocks the screen and unfreezing everything back does not bring the screen back you have to factory reset it. Any ideas of what the service is that affects the second screen?
Second Screen symlink busybox
After reading all your comments on what you could have done to cause the second screen from working, it looks like the symlink is broken especially if you have updated your busy box. I too started to have the second screen go bad on me and I couldn't figure it out until I read this thread especially the log post. I am going to reset and ensure that smart install is set right in busy box.
Recently, the AT&T LG V10 (H900) just got root here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-lg-v10/general/root-lg-h900-real-tot-make-tungkick-t3336317
I then debloated the V10 on firmware H90010f with Debloater v3.90 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/debloater-remove-carrier-bloat-t2998294
Before, I decided to have the second screen off for a while, so I disabled it in the system's menu. I then advanced towards debloating. Decided to turn on the second screen again. Notice that there were issues with it. So now I'm currently experiencing this issue: the second screen does not show date, time, weather, notifications, quick icons. Only shows quick toggles if I swiped from right to left, such as sound profile, WiFi, flashlight, and camera. I undo all of the debloating, rebooted the phone many times, still the same problem. Sigh. I'm trying to avoid doing factory reset because I'm not up to reloading everything again, especially the SMS/MMS.
So, anybody found out a better solution other than doing a reset?
Update 1: It seems like re-rooting with updating the ROM with the "upgrade" option for the AT&T LG V10 to not do a full clean install does not solve the problem. I didn't lose all my personal data, but I did not gain anything that it restored system apps to previous default settings. Sigh, it's just one step closer to just do a factory data reset.
Update 2: There appears that other things were broken from disabling/removing apps (during phone calls, cannot multitask, such as switch apps or use the notification area; SuperSU couldn't generate a log correctly), so I went ahead and did a factory reset since there was no alternative restoring method. The second screen works again and so does the said apps. Looks like I'll have to be careful which apps I'll be disabling/removing with Debloater.
Uninstalling an app restored my second screen.
I had this issue as well. Camera controls were in the second screen space, the swipe to end call would appear, but none of my other settings stayed long after restarting my phone, maybe 10 min. I uninstalled some of my most recent apps, the suspect one being "Zooper Widget Pro" and the issue stopped. No factory data reset etc. This app was a launcher-type app (I'm a geek but nowhere near the tech terms used elsewhere on this site) and I thought it might be the issue due to its ability to control the home screen. I doubt it was intended to work with this arrangement. So I would look at any launchers or apps which can control the home screen before doing a reset as this exact issue was easily solved for me.
I just got the phone and set it up. the only thing I disabled was ATT bloatware nothing else. 2nd screen is only on when main one is on. Using nova launcher. I tried uninstalling and that didn't help. Is there any more info on this, can I get it working without factory reset ? I get no indication of notification right now other than sound.
I did factory reset and that didn't help either.
I have a same problem with the second screen to. So anybody can help me!
Is there anyone can help me pls!!!
I solved this problem by checking PINs on mainboard for the second Flex Cable for LCD of LG V10, see the video, READ comments here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpeVAqgU94s, so in my case one of three PINs was folded little, so one PIN contact didn't touch the second Flex Cable and this caused the problem...

Amazfit GTS - Screen suddenly stopped working

Been using the unit for 2 weeks or so. All of a sudden, there's no ecreen output at all.
It vibrates, it syncs to the amazfit app, it charges and the HR monitor does work.
Any idea on what happened? Should I RMA or is there any method to reset it and try my luck?
Ok, nevermind: Went to unpair it in order to RMA and it rebooted after clearing the data, and the screen came back to life.
If you ask me, this does not seem like a hardware issue... :S
How you have cleared the data withour screen not working?

Unpairing the watch from the amazfit app.
I had this happen another two times.
Last time it happened I refused to restore the settings when pairing it again and did not have this issue anymore (so far).
Happens to me as well.
Everyone it happens, I attempt to upload a new watchface via the Amazfit app, which causes the software to reboot. After the reboot everything works.
Looks like software issue to me.
