Google Play Services for Wear

I managed to be an idiot and reset my 360 to try and force the new update. Obviously that doesn't work. However, I had Google Play Services 6.1.74 before I reset. I have a presentation at work tomorrow that involves a wear app that I built and due to the mismatched services, my app and the phone aren't talking to each other. Yes I could build with downgraded gps, but I would prefer to just install 6.1.74 on my 360. Do any of you guys know if the watch uses the same apk as phones? If so I'll just install via adb. Otherwise, does anybody have the wear 6.1.74 that I could get?

Maybe this will help, go into the play store on your device, then select settings, scroll down to build version and tap on it. Google play store and services will update if it hasn't already.

Unfortunately you can't open the play store on android wear. That is a great tip though, thanks!

I meant on your phone or device that your watch connects too. For example my moto 360 connects to my galaxy s5 so on my GS5 i open the play store then settings ect.

Derp, my bad. I gotcha haha. Fortunately it updated google play services in the middle of the night. Now to wait for the firmware update. The demo at work went well. haha

Notification "connected, in connection" vanished

Hello everyone, I'm new. Forgive my English.
This morning I'm going to turn on the phone and Moto 360, and noted that the notification is vanished from the drop-down menu that shows me they are connected or not to the Moto 360. To find out, now I'm forced to open Android Wear.
Moto 360 firm: 5.0.2
Android Wear: last in playstore
Moto Connect: same android wear
Note 4 N910U firm.....4.4.4 -.-
Anyone can help me please? Thanks!

I have exactly the same problem since today morning. I use Sony Z3 running lollipop.
----
Update: it looks like this is by design by latest Google play services update to version 7.3.

What your seeing is the new results of Google Play services being updated to 7.3.29 I believe. With this new update, if your Android Wear Connected Devices are connected and working fine, the notification auto hides itself. It is though suppose to pop back up when there is a problem between sync and devices but I have not seen it do that.
With the older Google Play Services such as 7.0.99 the notification was always there with no way of hiding it or turning it off.
The new Google Play Services was suppose to prepare phones to be able to work with the new features coming to Android Wear and firmware updates to the moto 360 and other smart watches.
Also there was a bug in the older Google Play Services keeping it always on and a connection always running due to it trying itself to look for OTA's through Google Servers I assume for GPE editions of phones and watches. I think now from watching over the new version on my Verizon Note 3 that it is now fixed and is the last thing always running in the battery rundown list. Before the update and with the older version it was the first in the list for draining battery on Lollipop!

Just as an update to my earlier post, the newer newest android wear is up live on the Google Play store. It has the sync to cloud option so that you can use WiFi mode on smart watch.
Only issue now is we still are waiting for new firmware to enable it on the Moto 360.

Thanks for the answers.
Wait for the new version then, as to me it is not yet appeared.
Thanks for the help!

Well, on my Z3 the notification does not appeared when watch was disconnected.

Moto 360 WORKS :)

Moto360 works great with the last update now and the update has to be the 4.6.1 US versions ending in 820 and not 320
I had the one ending in 320 and was not working and Google services was working from time to time, but now with the update ending in 820 everything was fix with latest google services and latest play store and Google maps all working great and obviously Android Wear for my Moto360 that works like a charm
If you have questions let me know and I will try to help
I have an AT&T fire phone unlocked.

Just wanted to add to this because I've just got my Sony Smartwatch 3 working.
Had to install system software version 820 but otherwise everything is fine.
I've got a UK O2 device.

Please explain the steps. I have a Note 4 already paired to my Moto360. I want to add a second device.
Thanks.

LG G Watch
Confirmed that the LG G Watch running 5.1.1 Android wear, works fine, just the stock Amazon email app, does not trigger the watch to vibrate when a new email is received, other apps, messages, calls, Facebook, notifications work great =) Finally I can use this phone =)

congrats!

I thought that update wasn't available yet for all of us using the UK handsets? Did you update using the US firmware? I put off doing that because I thought perhaps US versions weren't optimised for uk carrier networks.
Trying to get my moto 360 to work with this phone, migrated from a moto e 2nd gen. Boy did I underestimate how primitive fire os is. I mean, on paper: this phone is the best bang for your buck (on offer, anyways), but man 'dat os tho'. My moto 360 has literally served as a glorified regular watch with a ridiculously short battery life for the past month. I'm also on o2, and I'm not sure what you did to get that update but please let me know.

Which version of google service do you use?
I am using 4.6.1 (3820) and whenever I play Android wear then it shows
"Update the Goolge app on the Play Store. Then open Android Wear again"
even the android wear and connect are latest version. So I cannot connect to my
MOTO 360. Can you help?

Hi,
I had the same problem and here is how i fixed it!
1. Open playstore
2. Download the Google app...literally type in "google" and its the app with the white looking google symbol
3. Android wear works!
My fire phone is running 4.6.3 ver. 620 = this is the last three digits of my software version.
Google play store version 5.9.12
I also downloaded Motorola connect and selected the moto360 from menu and clicked open in android wear.
hope this helps im getting my watch tomorrow.

Thanks a lot.
After I upgrade to 4.6.3 and I forced to remove Amazon app store and then everything works smoothly.
Thanks.

Moto360 1st edition is $149.99.
From my reading on the new 2015 edition their is increased battery life and a slight change in button placement.
My moto360 will last the entire day with with a full charge to start that day. Ambient mode is on and I use paid watch faces with lots of colors.
I didn't feel the extra $150 for the second edition was justifiable to me. The 1st edition is still quite fashionable and useful.

Moto 360 won't update 4.4w.2

Just got a moto 360 in today and I cannot get it to update android wear. I've done everything I can think of. Rebooting it, resetting it, letting it sit, I've cleared app cache on Android wear and even uninstalled it.. I don't know what else to do. It gets to about 25% complete everytime and then it disconnects from my phone and says "unfortunately Google services has stopped working". And in order to get it to let me reattempt the download I have to reset my device completely. Anyone else have any thoughts??

Exact same thing has been happening to me! I just got the Moto 360 yesterday.
Help would be much appreciated.

I'm thinking about just returning it and waiting for the second gen to come out..

Look at the reviews of the Android Wear app. Many, many people seem to be having this problem with the latest update. I think I'll just wait it out until the app fixes these issues.

I just got my replacement Moto 360 today and had this problem. I thought Motorola sent me a defective replacement and was frustrated as hell for a couple hours lol. I was able to solve it by using a previous version of Android Wear app (I had a titanium backup saved from the end of June) and I was able to update the watch normally again. I reset the watch after restoring the old version of the app then checked for updates and this time it downloaded the entire thing and updated then after updating I updated the app to the newest version and all is well!

I just bought my Moto 360 all excited to get my Android Fanboyism to the next level.
The first thing I did was try to update my Android Wear version.
And This is when I start getting the error..
It keeps saying google play services crashed.
google apps crashed..
Someone help..

I Can Help!!!
I can help you guys out. Just three days ago I bought my moto 360 at your SW version and had this EXACT issue. Here is how I fixed it.
First off, do yourself a favor and delete the lastest version of Android Wear on your phone. While you're at it, be sure to get rid of Moto Connect as well if you have installed it. Basically, what is happening, is android wear 4.4 doesn't seem to be compatible with the latest version of Android Wear for Phones, so as your phone is attempting to update your watch from 4.4 to 5.1.1, it throws this error.
Step two, disconnect your Moto 360 from your phone in the Android wear menu on your phone. Factory reset your Moto 360.
Step three, go to Here on your phone and download that APK to a location you can find it. This is an older version of android wear.
Step four, install this APK. Reboot your phone for good measure, and connect your Moto to your phone using the version of Android wear on your phone. MAKE SURE TO NOT ALLOW ANDROID WEAR ON YOUR PHONE TO UPDATE IN THE GOOGLE PLAY STORE.
Step Five, once everything is connected, on YOUR WATCH, go to settings --> about --> software updates. This step takes a LONG TIME, around 10-20 minutes, and your watch must be over 80% to complete this. When it finishes (the green circle wraps all the way around the X) it will ask if you want to upgrade. Tell it yes. When the watch finishes and reboot, FACTORY RESET IT AGAIN.
Step Six, With the watch reset, remove android wear from your phone, and do a fresh install on the play store. Now connect your phone to your watch. You should no longer have any issues. Your watch is now running Wear 5.1.1 and your phone is running the latest AW App. Go ahead, install Motorola connect and any other apps you want to have, and most importantly, ENJOY YOUR NEW WATCH!
To any mods out there watching, I'd recommend sticking this post or something. This is an error that is going to come up a LOT until google figures out why that happens. To my knowledge, this is the ONLY way to get a 4.4w2 Moto 360 running on the latest android wear release.

Update Android wear

I am using a galaxy s6 and whenever I click to open Maps on my watch, I get a notice that says "Update Android Wear- Maps won't run unless you update Android Wear app". I've tried to remove and reinstall it on my phone, but keep getting the same error. I've also tried to reset my watch to factory default. Neither fix the problem. Has anyone else seen this? BTW- I also have problems opening keep.

On your watch go to Settings > About > Versions and what versions of Google Play Services and Android does it show? Also what build number are you running?
I suspect Google Play Services isn't updating correctly on the watch when installing the Android Wear app on your phone.

Best ask in the Gen 2 forum...this one is for the Gen 1.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-360-2015

I had this problem as well, at least for me, maps wouldn't start using "ok Google" or the Google search app, so I started the maps app manually on the watch using the app list menu (took a while to scroll to "m"), started navigation, and after that point "ok Google, navigate ..." started working, I have a galaxy s5 and a moto 360 2nd gen.

Same message, whether I do "where is London" from ok Google, or trying to open the Maps app manually.
