Anyone else's indicator light on the original charging dock staying on all night? I thought from the user manual, it said that when the watch is fully charged, the indicator light on the charging dock would turn off. Mine stays on even after the watch has been at 100% for hours.

The update changed it so the screen always stays on while on the charger.

I'm not talking about the watch screen staying on. I was wondering if the light on the charger is supposed to turns off when the watch gets to 100%.

Thanks. Have you noticed if the indicator light turns off right when the watch hits 100% or does it still need "topping off" and turns off after a little bit?

You're welcome. It doesn't seem to do it immediately, which initially made me wonder, but when I wake up in the morning the charging light is off.

Thanks for your help. I wonder what is causing mine to stay on for so long. I left it on the charger at 100% and fell asleep around midnight. When I woke up at 3am, the light was still on.

Has it already did the update? I'd just use it all day and check it one more time after charging.

Yup, it is on 4.4W.1
Will keep an eye on it tonight/tomorrow morning. I just want to make sure everything is working fine before the return window closes. I think the wording in the user manual is old and the light would go off at 100% since the screen turns off. Now that the screen is always on, I am guessing that it is constantly trickle charging even when it hits 100%.
Thanks.

Cradle not charging, but charging status face displayed
Within the last couple of days I've been waking up with a dead 360. When I put the watch in the cradle, it appears to be charging (watch face shows charging circle and percentage); however, I just noticed that the indicator light does not turn on.
End result is a dead battery. Resolution has been to use a different QI charger to charge the watch. The automatic conclusion is that the charger isn't charging, but why does the watch go into "charging status"? Thoughts/help? Anyone else experiencing this? This all started after most recent update.
Try doing this:
Put the watch on the charger.
Open the Android Wear App on your phone and go into settings
CHECK "Screen Always On"
Wait for the 360's screen to dim a little bit
UNCHECK "Screen Always On"
The watch display will turn completely off.
This will charge your battery in less than 2 hours.

That light is for the watch being docked.. I would suggest putting some electrical tape (non-permanent way) or black nail polish (permanent) over it.

Well I woke up to something interesting this morning. Anyway I grabbed my phone to check the time and it was really hot and only at 71% it had been on the charger for probably 5 hours. There was a message on the screen about temperature being too high or something. So I pulled it off and restarted it and just left it alone. After I got up I put it on the charger with it turned on and let it charge, but I was right by it so I could keep checking it. It charged without getting hot, but now it will just show 100% Charging on the screen and the LED doesn't seem to ever turn Green. Right now I switched to my i9300 and have the i747 turned off on the charger to see if it will get to 100% and turn green. Any one encountered this before? I couldn't seem to find someone who had posted this before.

My friend, if your phone heats up at all that high....replace it. Time to call TMO, why look for a fix, when it probably is hardware related.
Don't waste time...get er done! oops I'm stupid, I mean At&t. Sorry
Anyone else having this issue? 1st night charging went to 100% while screen was off. 2nd charge only took it to 94% w/screen dimmed, and 3rd charge wouldn't go higher than 82% with dimmed screen.
Ever since the screen won't stay off, the watch won't fully charge. There is no way to disable screen while charging.

Make sure the watch is all the way down in the charger. It seems to be easiest if you have the button down, so it fits into the curve of the charger. I had an issue where the watch screen was staying in the charging mode, but wasn't actually charging when it wasn't aligned correctly.

Oh cool. Thanks, I'll check that next time. That could have been it
I'm having some issues with it also. I've tried aligning the watch multiple times. The first time floated on 79%-80%, 2nd charge has been floating at 75%-77%. I'm hoping there is an easy fix or that it's software related, because it kills me to have issues on a brand new product
Did anybody end up finding a fix to this? I received my watch yesterday and charged it to 100% and overnight I left it in the charging dock but when I woke up I found it to only be at 82%

Is the time correct while it's showing this? I've noticed that sometimes the display doesn't update very well. Every time I've seen a non-100% charge in the morning (which was maybe twice), the time wasn't correctly displayed either. As soon as I touched the screen, however, the time and battery percentage would update -- the latter suddenly jumping to 100%. If I used the 360 as a bedside clock, I'd probably be upset about this, but since that's my Nexus 7's job, it doesn't really bother me on the 360.

There are issues with the docking screen.
I noticed the wrong time displayed after four hours charging. The time shown on the docking screen was 1 hour behind, or about 25% slower than real time. The watch was not paired. After dismissing the docking screen by removing the watch from charger the normal watch screen showed correct time.
I notice the watch fully charges to 100% and my Samsung Qi charger light turns yellow (stop charging). Then the watch discharges quickly because the screen stays on bright while charger toggles on and off quickly. It sometimes goes down to 90% before the charger restarts charging normally without yellow light.
I can mediate all these issues successfully for an overnight charge by manually:
(1) Toggle ambient mode on in settings on phone/tablet. Wait until watch dims on charger and deselect ambient mode setting - which turns off watch display.
(2) Disconnect pairing on phone/tablet. This is a simple and quick way to prevent further notifications waking up the watch screen while charging.
All these manual functions could be put into an application for stable & quick charging. Or, Motorola could address issues in a software update in the future.
Good luck.
I just got my moto 360 and out the box battery was dead. I left it on the charger for 2 hours and it never got past 8 % then jumped down to 2% when I took it off.
It is not even charging. This saddens me.

Did the update yesterday...
I hadn't any issue with the battery until now (but then I've only been using the Moto 360 for a couple of days), but this morning the battery was stuck at 87% when I woke-up and checked the watch.
I've let it charge some more, it was still at 87% so I rebooted the watch and let it continue to charge, and now it's back at 100%.
FWIW I'm using ScreenOfWear (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.ebserver.screenoffwear) to blank the display while charging.
Have a great day with your Moto 360!

Sounds like a battery calibration issue then.. Reset and start again :good:
Does anyone know if I can set it up without a android phone? Like I for the time being am okay with only watching time and such but i wonder if i can even set it up qithout it. Thanks!
I got my watch today and went to charge it for the first time and it'll get to 10% and then it starts to discharge pretty rapidly. Anyone else have this issue or will it correct itself over night or something?
Another thing I've noticed is the moto360 gets a little hot when it starts discharging, maybe that's why?

Charge up first and THEN update to new OTA. Then your battery will improve a little each day.

I've already done the OTA. It started the download as soon as I turned it on basically.

What's your build number right now?
The latest should be 4.4W.1.
What you can try is to reset the watch, maybe that helps. That shouldn't cause that much damage as you probably don't have any data on the watch itself anyway.
Hard to reset it when you can't get it to turn on. It doesn't even show the charge indicator now. Just the backlight turning off and going dim
That doesn't sound right at all. Try a different charge cord with your dock. Mine started the update download as soon as it linked to my phone, after that it HAD to be charged to at least 80% before starting the actual update. After that it will charge from 10% to 60% in about 25mins or less.

It's been sitting on the charger now for ~4-5 hours since I started this thread. I took it off about 5mins ago to test it, it powers on and nothing. It acts like it wants to come on, but nothing happens. Just the backlight, then it dims and soon goes off. The charging white light has been lit while it was on the charger the whole time. And it won't even display the blue circle with the time while on the charger.
When I took it out of the box earlier this afternoon it came on, paired it and started downloading the update then shut off saying to charge it. I placed it on the charger and the blue circle ring appeared. It hit 10% and started draining 2% a second and shut off. It hasn't shown the charging screen again after that. Just lights up the black screen and goes off, that's it.
So one thing I noticed, I power the watch completely off. No backlight on at all and place it on the charger. After a few seconds it turns on, black screen just backlight turns on, and vibrates really quick. Then after a couple seconds it vibrates again, but longer than it does when just powering the unit on and then the screen dims.
Hey guys,
I just charged my Moto 360 to 100% and it dropped to 99% the second I took it of charger so, I put it back on the charger and it didn't go above 99%, that'why I took it of the charger right now and it instantly droppd to 98% (WTF??) Can anybody tell me what's wrong with my device or if they experienced the same weird bug
Thanks,
Thomas
mine stays at 86% charging....anyone encounter this?
mine does similar.
It'll charge up to 95%, then sit there. I've gotta take it off, wait a bit, then put it back on the charger to keep going.
Doesn't do it alot - just occasionally.
I notice that this happens when the watch gets hot (e.g. extensive use before placing on the charger). Taking it off and letting it cool off for a while, and then putting it back on the charger, will resume normal charging to 100%.

You are correct Sir..that's the remedy..I allow my 360 to cool before charging, and 100% result every time..If I have not used the watch (extensively) before charging..100% every time..I have taken mine off the charger at about 50% before, if I let it get down below 20%..let it cool, then back on charger, batteries take a more complete charge when in a cooler state..

"Praise Jah" YOU people.!
Same here, not matter how long you still put it in charger after reaching 100 battery, it goes to 99% several seconds off the charger.
But I think it not impact battery life. Normally mine is 4-5% per hour which is enough for one day.
If you have custom watchfaces (not stock), you might want to disable them and go back to stock while charging. I noticed this and switched the watchface, went up to 100% right after I switched faces.

As long as ambient mode is off I can always get my screen to turn off by pressing the side button. It doesn't always do it on the first press though. I can't say for certain what the magic is. Sometimes it takes three quick presses, sometimes two. Sometimes I need to repeat the button pushing a few times. Once it turned off all on its own. The dim charging screen is way too bright, so I always turn it off. After feeling the temperature difference in the morning I think it is just a good idea.
Even if I turn the screen off while charging, the watch would drop to 98% the moment it comes off the charger. When I put it back on the charger, it goes down to 96% even...
Similar problem
Mine does not go past 95% and then drops to 94 or 93%. I will try the cooling off thing, I hope that works.
This is really annoying, when my phone is charging and the screen is off, it constantly shows the battery % and time until battery is charged. Tried turning off the AOD, looked all through the settings and no go. Anyway to turn this off??? My note 9 does not do this

I've had the same thing on mine. Though thus far nothing I've tried seems to turn it off. Hoping an someone has figured this one out.
Even stays there when fully charged, totally stupid. I really dont want this on when its charging next to my bed all night. Not sure if this is samsungs bandaid to not having a notification led for battery charging? Do the s10s do this as well?

Ya that's what I'm afraid of.....
I was able to do it! However it requires not having Always on display. Here's how it's done. I purchased package disabler pro which is about $3 for the app. I then disabled always on display entirely from the app. I figured just turning it off in the settings app wont do it since it's always running in the background. However disabling it with package disabler seemed to do the trick and now I no longer get the charging indicator while the screen is off. Hope this helps!
