Heats up when charging - Moto 360

I just got my shiny new m360. Powered it up and put it to charge for the first time using ths official dock and charger it came with. However, inoticed that the watch is hot to the touch right now. Am i the only one experiencing this issue?

I dont know man, my z1 and s5 do not get hot when charging. Warm yes, hot no.
But my watch gets pretty hot. Ill observe if this will happen again on my 2nd charge

I just got one today and the same for mine. Problem though is that the charge will actually go down when its cradled. I had to up the adapter by using my Moto X charger instead and it charged it pretty quickly. Can't be good for the battery but I needed it for the initial setup process. Hopefully it doesn't drain when I revert to the old adapter and have it charge while I sleep.

Did you start setup before charging?

Yep, which is why I came on here and found that people were successfully charging their watches with a more powerful adapter. Most people will do the setup first because that's what Motorola's instructions state to do (which is a shame).
My ordeal is essentially this:
1) Didn't finish setup process, prompted to charge, automatically shut off.
2) Couldn't charge with provided adapter, but charged completely with the Moto X adapter
3) Finished setup process, couldn't connect to the internet.
4) Factory resetted, redid setup, connection established.
5) Charges fine on cradle now.
Glad I'm done with that, but the problem with Motorola's instructions are that it essentially tells you first to start it up first, with the charging cradle instruction at the end of the manual. On top of that, when I factory resetted the first time and attempted to charge while off, it turned on on it's own about 12% and after an hour, it was still at 12%. To get over that hump, I had to turn it off, charge it and when it turned on again, I turned it back off.

Battery not charging past random, arbitrary level sometimes

The last three mornings I've gotten up and grabbed my phone to find it not fully charged (46%, 71%, and 56%).
Each time the phone said it was charging on the lock screen but would never go higher than whatever it was stuck on.
I tried pulling it off the charger and plugging it back in again, but still it would not charge past some seemingly random and arbitrary value.
Rebooting the phone fixed the issue each time.
wtf? I don't really expect anybody to have any advice for me but still, wtf?
Going to try to get the phone replaced at Costco as I bought it less than 90 days ago.
Has anybody seen anything like this before?
I know that some samsung phone that i owned would have a protection against overcharge. It simply stop charging when it reach 100% and it still show as charging. However, stop charging at 56% never saw that.
Actually this happened to me the first time and only time a couple nights ago.. was sure that the phone was plugged in and charging but woke up and it was at 46% for some reason.
I've since rebooted and haven't had any trouble since so just figured its a one off.. but if its happened to you a couple times I would suspect maybe a problem with the cable or power plug adapter..
Don't know that any rooting or unlocking would be the cause.. (I am rooted)
My wife also has an Optimus G and we switched chargers/cords but I still have the issue.
I can't see how rooting could cause this problem.
Anyway, I'll try to get my device replaced. Thanks for the replies.

I am experiencing the same thing. It has happened 3x since I got the LGOG back in December. The previous times I thought I didn't have it plugged in correctly. Today I woke up after leaving the phone charged for 6 hours and it was at 23%. I rebooted the phone which I have done in the past and it would start charging, but today it didn't want to charge at all. The charging icon was on but the battery was discharging.
So I decided to cover the basics by swapping out the micro-usb cable with an old blackberry micro usb cable and it ended up charging normally again. The last 10% charge I used the LG micro usb cable again and it was able to charge normally.
Not sure if its the micro usb cable or the LG power adapter or may be the phone.
Any thoughts folks?
Again I have a feeling it could be the cable or power plug being used.. especially if you were able to plug in another cable and it worked ok..

Coincidentally, I also did some experimentation today with various chargers and cables and found my problem was specific to the cable that came with my optimus g.
Using the offending cable, I replicated the charging problem on my wife's optimus g using both the optimus g charger and my i9000 charger (thus ruling out the actual charger).
Such a strange problem though, the cable functions normally when transferring files or using adb shell, and seems to be able to charge my i9000 just fine.
Today I was able to fully charge my phone with the LG micro usb cable and adapter. No problems.
May be a phone problem? Its not consistent though.
This happened to me again last night. Starting my day with 10% battery :/
I am going to grab a different cable and see what happens.

I haven't had the problem since I replaced the cable. Before replacing the cable it happened every night and a few times during the day whenever I charged. I'm convinced the cable was the culprit.
I am seeing the same problem. My phone will only charge to arbitrary levels then stop. It's not a cable issue as it has done this with three other cables. Sometimes it just takes unplugging and plugging it back in. Other times I have to shut my phone off for it to charge. It also works to switch chargers (even though I have replicated the problem on all chargers) or do a reboot.

My problem has returned with a new cable, but not as frequently. I don't know. It only happens once in maybe 30 charges.
I know i'm bringing this thread back from the dead. Anyone get anywhere with this? Has anyone had any long term problems with the battery or charging?

I'm having this problem as well... Running Rootbox rom... phone gets plugged in, the battery icon starts flashing... but in settings it shows as "not charging" or even at times shows as "usb charging" ....
I'm going spare and crazy ... not sure if its a rom issue or if its a hardware defect ...
first thing to try in this case is a new cable if you have not already done so.. once I started using a store bought usb cable for it, I've had zero problems with charging.

Not Charging After Full Drain. Not Turning On When Plugged In

So I'm having a problem where I drained my battery and the phone shut itself off with 1% to 2% battery life remaining. I've left it charging for a good 45 minutes now. Turned it on, and it reported 1%. Thinking that it was just a reporting error, I unplugged it, and the phone promptly shut itself off. Now another 30 minutes has passed, unplugged it, turned it on. The phone refuses to turn on! It will however show the battery charging animation, so I know it's not bricked or anything. I guess my only solution is to leave it charging while it's off overnight, even though I need to use my phone right now... That important person will have to wait :crying:
Edit: Works again... Though it does not show my battery life correctly. It says 15% when it's probably more like 2%.

Might want to use a different cable.. i have read that the cable and possibly even the wall adapter can be flakey.. if you have a spare cable try to use it instead of the lg one..
Original LG cable is fine. It's ever since I drained the battery it's started to act weird. I plugged it in at 3% in hopes of "calibrating" the batterystats and it was charging fine. Up till now. I caught a glimpse of my phone turn itself off while charging.
Now it's randomly decided to turn itself on and bootloop... And back to charging animation while off we go. What the hell? The battery isn't charging... Switching cables didn't help btw.
Found a third cable. Temporarily working..

Hmmm maybe the charger? Sounds to me like its not getting proper power hence the shutting down while plugged in.. but what do I know heh
I have the same problem. Plugged the phone in at about 3% and walked away. Came back an hour later to find it stuck in a loop of the LG logo and a black screen. I can sometimes get it into recovery, and from there see that the battery percentage will go from 0% to 15% and back to 0%. It's like the battery is bad.
I think it's a problem with the ROM/firmware where we can't drain it and hope to charge it up again..
I'm still running v1 of the jb release and last night I used my phone until it shut down at 2%, charged it up fine, and its been ok, knock on wood. One weird thing is that if I use the phone while on the charger, and I mean light tapatalk usage, the phone will drop to 99%, even while plugged in. Weird.

That's normal. When the phone is charged at 100% it stop charging to avoid the battery to be overcharged thus reducing it's durability.
Not charging again... My phone maintained a charge between 10% and 25% or so according to the battery usage graph. So I switched cables again. I went into the service menu and got a screenshot of the charging test this time. First pic is with the LG cable. Second is with a Samsung cable. Third picture is back with LG cable after the battery successfully got charged past the "low battery zone" with the Samsung cable.
I have a similar problem with the stock charger. After a few weeks of working perfectly, it just sopped charging my Optimus G.
Bizarrely, it charges my wife's Galaxy S2 HD LTE without issues.
And the charger from my Sony-Ericsson Xperia pro charges the Optimus without issues.
It's almost like the stock charger burns out something internally such that it doesn't output enough voltage/amperage/current.

So it happened again... But this time, it occurred in between 20% to 40% battery life while charging. It's probably the LG cable.. Gonna call support and ask for another.

I have a similar situation -- I powered down my phone one time at 5 %, did not wake up until one hour of charge, then last night tried again with about 40 % of battery left, same problem. I was wondering at first if the phone did not go to power down properly, and that the battery would drain through that, but then I just did another test with my battery at 30 %, and the phone did not want to restart until plugged in for 5 minutes.. It's almost as if the booting process is just this huge battery drain, sucking all the juice to start the phone in a peak of electrical rage.. anyway -- I noticed that yesterday, I was trying to restart the phone after a while, it would start to boot but it seemed it owuld just miss a little bit of juice to complete the process, then finally when it made it to screen it was at about 10 %..
Could it be that fix we used in the stock rom to get the screen at more than 65 %, and the cpu at 1512 mhz ? It seems more software related than hardware in my case, meaning I don't beleive it is the cable
Hate to revive an old thread, but as the new owner of an LGOG i just ran across this problem the other day. My phone has been able to go two day on a charge, and last week I forgot to charge it on night. Found it dead the next day. was leaving so I took it intending to charge at work or in the car. Car charger had no effect, but upper portion of phone got hot. plugged it in at home, same thing, charging icon, getting hot, but not charging. Also noted dim screen glow all the time.
tried 2o second hold on power button, vol up and down, got into the download screen and the bootloader screen, but no charge. Finally held the power button and vol. up and red charging light came on. Held it for a minute and the red charging light stayed on, let go out it went. Decided to try a couple of rubber bands around the phone to hold in the buttons, and it worked ---phone charged fully and operates as usual.
Thought I'd pass my experiance on to help anyone else with similar problem. Any idea why this worked?
I don't know, but I do know that getting to android 4.3 roms like the ones in Houstonn's thread have cured my O. G. from that, and from also constant and random camera reboot, and from also maps freaking out when plugged in in the car..

For anybody that runs into this problem
I had this problem and tried for hours and hours to fix it. When you stick the usb charger into your phone, it literally takes like 5 hours to charge 2% when it's in this state
So it never gets to a point of wanting to turn on because the phone gets too hot trying to charge
My solution: Put a bunch of ice in a bowl, then put something over that like a bag, aluminum foil, basically anything that would be a barrier between the ice and your phone to keep it from getting wet
Now let it charge with the phone sitting on top of that ice for a few hours(make sure to add new ice as it melts) and your phone will charge up enough that it can be fully turned on. Then just let it keep charging
This worked for me after trying other things for hours. If this didn't work i was gonna open the phone and pull the battery
After the last update I have not had this issue. I've run my phone dead a few times and now it always charges - no issue.

Battery Issue

Since a few weeks, my phone takes a very long time to charge (like +10% every hour), when I watch tv or a movie on it while it's plugged in it even tells me that the phone is using more battery than it can charge (sorry for the french-> english).
Every morning I find it turned off, I plug it no led lites, after a while the led starts blinking and after 30minutes approximately it finally turns red and I can turn it on.
I'm using Revolution HD rom, but I assume it might be a hardware issue rather than software.
Does anyone ever encountered this issue ?

Today I used usb charging inded (but usually I use regular charger), I disabled everything I could, plug it at 9am, it's now 5pm and it's finally 100%
The good thing is that it seems to normally drains battery.
I just used battery callibrator, I'll let it empty and then charge it anew to see if there is any change.

Won't boot or charge

Anyone having problems with it not powering up. It will charge to about 8-12% then shut off. It gets really hot when it's charging but I can't get anywhere with this watch. Getting really frustrated, been trying to get it work for over 5 hrs. Has anyone had this issue?

Boot it up. Press and hold power button. Chose reset device from menu. When it boots back up don't touch until charged.
Definitely had issues like this. I ultimately exchanged it (got lucky with Best Buy having it in stock) but I read here that you may want to reset it, and charge it while its completely off, to full battery, Before trying to sync and use it. My defective 360 wouldn't even factory reset, so YMMV.

Don't pair it to your phone. A service kicks off to do an update but you can't until it's 80% or more charged. As others have said, do the rest then leave it alone.

I'm having the exact same issue. How do you know when it is charged fully? When it is off there is no indicator of charge level. The Galaxy gear and gear live I had both had a battery icon when charging while off. I hope the battery is not a dead since the gear and live watches had awesome battery life for me...
Like a dumbass i tried to pair without fully charging it and was unsuccessful. Now the watch is dead and on the charger. Hopefully it charges or I will have to return this.
It took me about 10 attempted charging cycles over 24 hours before it worked. Usually the watch was off and it would be pretty hot. I noticed the charger was only a .5a so I changed the adapter to a 1.8a one I had. I left the watch on where the blue circle and time was showing and it charged right up from 3 to 100 in about an hour and today I used it from 2pm till 1030 pm with ambient screen and it was down to 39 now on charger for about 20 mins and it is up to 77. So far so good after a nightmarish 1st day...

yeah, I'm noticing my watch feeling hot while being charged. Sadly, it still won't power on. :crying:
It will, just wait a little while then when it is on the cradle press the power button for 3-5secs then it will come on. On the stock charger you will prob see the power circle start dropping then shut off. Plug in a higher rated Micro USB charger into the dock and it should charge fine.

Is this safe for the hardware? My moto 360 keeps floating between two percentages after about 2 hours. I plugged in the charger from my note II, and it seems to charge really quick. But is this higher amperage safe for the moto 360, since the stock is rated at a much lower amperage?

The device will draw what it needs a .5a charger will provide up to that amount of current. a 2a charger will provide up to 2a of current but a device may not pull that much. It is generally thought that for LiIon batteries that providing a low maximum current and taking longer to charge will make the batteries last longer, so if you dont mind a slow charge cycle, which for a watch that should be charged while you are sleeping it doesnt matter then you should go back to the stock adapter to maximize total life.
I went off charger at 7:30am and now at 11 I am at 65%, which is terrible, but I'll wait a week to pass judgement, but my gear live and galaxy gear 1 with tizen both had awesome battery life of 2 full days with more than moderate use.... The Galaxy Gear 1 on Android was lucky to get more than 14 hrs of use.
Thanks everyone for helping me get my Watch up and running. For anyone who is new and reading this, fully charge your watch before pairing it since it will need at least 80% battery so it can update itself. Of course, this has already been stated in the thread and thanks to those folks who stated it already and all the credit goes to them.
I'm having this issue as well. I've been trying to charge it for the past few hours and it never gets past 10%. I kept trying to reset the device and it would never work. It kept coming up in the "Just a minute" mode which seems to eat the battery.
But finally on my last reset attempt, the device rebooted immediately and came back up on the "Select language" screen. I now have the device charging and am hopeful it will work this time.
But my big question is: how do you know when it's fully charged? Without knowing what the current charge level is, I'm afraid to try the update procedure or I may get stuck in the same "Just a minute" loop again. Anyone have any ideas on how to determine the charge level prior to setting up the device?
I killed mine. I tried to pair, got stuck on the "just a minute" screen and then it died. I charged it for a couple of hours and it still would get stuck. Somehow, I got to settings (still don't know how) and did a factory reset. Then, everything seemed ok and it was charged at 100% when I paired and did the update.
However, after the update, I got into a boot loop where it would show the M logo with the marks around the dial, flash to some colored balls, then say "android wear" and then it would reboot. Tech support from Motorola couldn't help me and finally after a few hours the watch died. I put it back on the charger and it would eventually fire back up and go into the bootloop again. It did it all night last night.
Furthermore, my indicator on the charger never lit up either.
I took it back and "exchanged" it for a new one that the store said would ship this week.
As much as I was anticipating this thing showing up, I'm pretty disappointed already.
Finally got mine booted. After successfully resetting the device (back to the "select a language" screen), I had it on the charger for about an hour. Then I tried again and it went through the whole installation successfully.
Ugh! Wish I read this first. Unable to get it to turn on at all, cannot get it charged over 6%

I was in the same boat. The trick is to get the device reset. When I was trying to do that (via the menu that comes up when you press-and-hold the watch button), it would sit there and do nothing. Then 10 seconds later it would power down. But then as it charged, it would power back up and the "Just a minute" message would appear.
To get it to work, I turned the device off and let it charge. When it powered back on, I turned it off immediately and kept charging it. Then eventually, the charge jumped up to about 13%. I tried the device reset option again and this time it powered down immediately and booted back up with the "select a language" screen. I then turned off the display and let it charge for an hour. After that, I went through the setup and it worked.

Thanks Dan, that did the trick. I see the firmware update added quite a few watch faces but can't customize the colors on those until the Connect app is updated.

Strange charge issue anyone had this happen yet?

Not sure if was just a bug, but last night I put my phone on charge before bed and battery was at 25% I woke up in the morning to my suprise battery was only at 27%, I unplugged USB and re-plugged in again and it charged like normal.
Well, I had the same issue when I woke up this morning except in my case, the power brick has died completely and I am trying to determine if the battery has as well...
It does say it's charging on the lock screen when I connect it to a computer but in 10 minutes I haven't seen the percentage go up
FYI I have charged the device overnight only 9 times since I got it, GREAT JOB HTC !

Did you have ultra battery saving mode enabled to turn on automatically? Last time I had this enabled my phone wouldn't charge on a stock rom and stock charger. It only happened in 24 hour span, and there were times during that time when I plugged it in and wouldn't charge. I was on the latest update and after I disabled ultra battery saving mode I never had any charging problems
Nope all berry saving modes was off. It charged fine last night from 40%
I going to try run battery down today and see. Very strange

I can hear some noise coming from the charger while it's working louder than the M9's charger and a sound whenever I disconnect the charging cable from the port, like if something was a little loose. Are those normal things?
I recently had this issue too on a totally stock Verizon phone. Phone wouldn't charge until a reboot.

I assume you guys are all using stock charger and cable to charge? I think QC 3.0 can be picky about the cable used. Haven't had any issues with the 10, but previous phone was a lumia 950xl. It was only QC 2.0, I used a third party cable with it, had a lot of bother, then used stock cable and everything worked perfectly.
I had this happening once and the issue was for some reason the cable wasn't plugged to the wall adapter properly. I removed it and plugged it and it started working. I don't think it's something to get worried about.
Not sure about the noise though

That's normal. It's a switching-mode power supply (SMPS for short) and there's some coil whining in there. Quite literally business as usual.
Not sure if there has been any update on this, but I'm experiencing the same issue as well. I have a stock charger + stock cable as well as two Anker chargers (both QC3, one wall and one car charger) and I use iOrange-E cables (56k ohm) with the Ankers. I only have this problem with the stock cable and stock charger, the 3rd party chargers haven't had any issues yet. I will plug the phone in for the night and a majority of the time (it's happened 5 or so times in the past week) it will charge for about 10 minutes or less before it just stops charging. It acts like it's been unplugged entirely. I have to unplug and replug the charger to the wall a couple of times before it will start charging again. It will again only charge for a short period of time before it stops and repeats this. Since it's only happening with the one charger I'm left to believe that maybe the charger is just faulty. Anyone else still having this problem or has come to the same conclusion?
Yes!!! I've had this issue with the stock charger as well... very weird. Just doesn't charge and have to unplug it multiple times to get it to work
I also have an anker wall and car charger along with an anker cable... they work fine
Verizon stock phone... hasn't happened since ota

Well I just experienced the same I guess ..
The cable is still okay if I plug into a different charging head/block it charges but it does not with the original head... Its weird... Not even after restarts and so

Started having the issue a few days ago. Phone will not charge until I plug it in and then reboot it. Doesn't matter what cable, charger, etc... I use, and yes I have tried them all. Stock, anker, qc 3 certified, non certified, doesn't matter. It behaves the same no matter what. Even went back to stock rom and same issue. Tried a couple of different kernels too.

This now the only way my phone will charge. I have probably ordered 3 sets of QC 3 certified chargers(car and wall), the stock one that came with the phone, probably 20 different cables, even some being micro USB with adapters, flashed all the way back to stock unrooted, wiped sd card, formatted data, tried several different kernals and roms. The only thing I have not done is go back S-On for completely out of the box stock, just dont feel it would make a difference at this point. Did yours simply just start working again dottat?
