There is a thread on Reddit about it as well:
http://www.reddit.com/r/AndroidWear...nyone_with_a_zenwatch_received_the_50_update/

The update appears to have posted to googles servers so it shouldn't be long now...... I hope!!
Androidpolice has a post showing that it has dropped. I can't post the link because this account is new.

I linked it in the reference thread. You can download it from there (or AP) and sideload via stock recovery.

Funny, I was just getting ready to do that and just got a notification that it is available. Bad news though. It wants me to charge the battery and my charger is at home.

I got notified at around 3:30 pm yesterday and went ahead and did the install. I'm in South Florida, not that location matters.

I just did my update. It has been sitting on my watch in agony for a few hours while I went to my wife's work Christmas party before I could get home and charge enough to update.
One thing I found that none of the reviews I've seen had mentioned is the Accessibility Mode setting that allows larger type. At 52 and at the edge of needing glasses it was a very welcomed addition!

3:30pm today. Showed a little notification on the watch.

The update seems to have fixed the persistent missed call count that can't be cleared from the watch. I should say that it cleared the missed call once... Keeping my fingers crossed that it wasn't just a fluke and it's actually working now

Got my update about 30 minutes ago here in St.Kitts and Nevis. One difference I have noticed is the heart rate sensor is more, much more accurate than before. Previously I would get a reading of 144 then if I redo it I get 78 then on another I would get 65. Now I get 68,66,65 which are much more accurate and consistent.
Anyone else notice that too?

[APK] Android Wear App 1.0.2

New android wear app in the wild as reported on Android Police.
http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/1...ted-play-services-for-wearables-apk-download/

https://db.tt/FMrvKljp
EDIT: A reboot of the watch is in order to get everything in sync.

Awesome! Thanks! :good:
Update: I noticed that after the install, my LG G3 was not connected to my Moto 360. It just said Connecting... I disconnected the watch and then repaired. All is well now. Don't know if this is normal or not.

I had something else happen, the icons on my watch went to an android holding a cube lol. A reboot of the watch fixed it all up.

Nothing really is known. It's possible theres only bug fixes and maybe battery life? There's no apk teardown yet.
EDIT: This is what I found with my google-fu..
The Android Wear 1.0.2 update comes as a preparatory step for version 2.0 and it adds about 3 MB to the APK file size. The most significant change in Android Wear 1.0.2 is an updated Google Play Services for Wearables, which turns version 5.0.91 into 6.1.11. The update could also affect the battery life of most smartwatches, as well as bring a personal unlocking feature.
My app automatically updated to this version yesterday morning via Google play. It screwed up replying to texts and emails via voice. Probably a few other things.

It appears to have been resolved. It didn't work all day yesterday, and there were lot's of reports on here and Google Play. Perhaps it was a server-side issue. Either way, I'm glad it's working again.
The new Google play services have updated for the Google fit application ...check if shows any changes

I had less issues today regarding facer. Which is good.
After installing it yesterday, upon charging it after a rather full day of use, the watch didn't top off to 100% like it normally did prior to the update. Meaning, the battery took a bit longer to charge fully. Just an observation.

Software Update?

Did anyone take the software update out of the box? I am a bit leery to, not sure what version it is and what it fixes...

I didn't even had a software update when I got mine a couple of days ago.

The day after I bought the phone, I saw it reboot out of the corner of my eye and noticed it was updating. I have never found info on what the update was for, but I rarely see an update automatically apply without user interaction unless it's some kind of emergency update (like to fix reception or something). It definitely applied the update without my authorization. I didn't even see a prompt.

I did not receive an update in the US on At&t either. I did manual check and it noted I was up to date.
I also agree it is quiet in here. I think this phone should be getting a lot more interest than what it is. There is a lot of potential here.

Software Version update to 5.0.2/ Build LWX49K

Hi All. I was wondering how many others have started getting the 5.0.2 update? (I was lazy and instead of taking screenshots... I just took some quick pics with my phone of the update info to post for anyone interested).
I received the update this evening and tried to find some information about the changes through an internet search. The update looks to be fairly minor and what I found says it should provide bug fixes and an update to Google Play services. Most of the info I've found discusses the update rolling out for the Moto 360, but I also found people who are reporting their LG G Watch R got the update too.
So far, the update is running smooth for me with no problems. I'm hoping it will continue to work well. I'm loving my Sony Smartwatch 3 and I'm glad to see that we got the update so quickly. :good: I just thought I'd check to see who else got the update and see how it's running for them.
Yes, I also got my update this morning, but am not sure what is new or updated...
Got it at Malaysia, about 3pm....
Waiting for the update...
What about this compass problem:

Dumb question time. Does the watch get the update via bluetooth or do you connect it to your PC via usb.
I am in Australia and my watch says it is up to date on 5.0.1 so I guess it is on it's way downunder sooner or later.
I'm just gettinh this update.

I received the update wirelessly without plugging it in to the computer (I'm guessing by bluetooth). The watch just gave a notification to swipe left to install the update. I read on one website where the watch should be charged to at least 80%... but I don't know if it has to be charged that that much to get the update. Im guessing that like other OTA'S, the update is being released in phases, so it's hard to say exactly when each person will get the update.

Wow... I didn't realize there was a problem with the compass since I don't really use it. I see where you also posted on the Sony forum to ask if the update fixes the problem. Hopefully someone will be able to respond quickly. If I get some time, I'll try to test it out.... but it will probably be a while.
Got this tonight, in Australia.
First thing I noticed is tilt to wake is way better... is it just me? I used to have to do ridiculous contortions to make the screen wake previously.

No update showing on my watch here in Adelaide, that is weird.
It must have gotten blown in on the cyclone but typical Adelaide, backwards.
I haven't ether in U.S (florida)
Got the notification around 20 minutes ago here in Oregon, USA. It looks like the update was delivered "OTA" to the watch via BlueTooth in the background, as I did not have to sit there and watch a download progress meter. My first inclination that there was an update was when the watch gave me a notification saying "Update ready to be installed!". Of course I swiped left only to be told I need to charge up first
I've got my watch charging now, will install ASAP. Annoying that there is no official changelog or blog post explaining what is new / fixed, just speculation.

Not really that strange.. they send the updates out based on hardware batches... it has little to do with geographical locations..
for the record I haven't seen the update yet either, in Perth WA
I've got mine last night , here in italy, after messing up/ stressing my poor smartwatch 3 i reset the watch.. tried to install " new update " via Sony Pc companion.. than reset it again.. in the end the " poor " watch gave up and sent me " downloading update " ...
i didn't notice anything " new " so probably some fixes !

5.1.1 OTA now available

https://plus.google.com/+WaynePiekarski/posts/2unJBySoqn2
Just to let you all know, the latest version of Android Wear is going to start rolling out via an over-the-air (OTA) update to the Moto 360 today! OTA rollouts are always done over a period of many days, so it will take some time to receive your update. For more details about what is contained in this update, please see my previous blog post:

I just got the update too iOS 9.1 turned my 360 into the Iwatch since whenever everybody asks about it " Is that the new apple watch?" No dumbA$$ apple is not the only one that makes smartwatches and phones.
No worries cause I bet my my bottom dollar some joker will no doubt start a new thread about the horrible battery on 5.1.1.
I'm sorry, how do I clean the wear app to try to start the process??
Installed the update, Wi-Fi works with no issues, flick gestures are nice, navigation still smooth, entering settings takes a while, battery seems fine.

Is the VPN part necessary? Thats the only thing I didn't do (because I don't know what it means) and I can't get mine to show the update.
So what's the trick to force an update. . . . Just let a wipe and then reload or what. Never had to force an update before.

Voila. There's different variations of this, which work for some, and don't for others. Worked for me twice on the 1st day of rollout both times, so the naysayers can keep to themselves.

Another update M6E69B 05 August 2016

Here is another update to M6E69B
https://android.googleapis.com/pack.../ea3f22cafa01264ded185bdec71b42821cec2c59.zip
I have no idea what it fixes / enhances / solves. I just got the update notice on my watch and grabbed it.
edit - I cannot see anything new other than the version. Sounds, watchfaces, installed apps, all the same. Let's hope the bugs are fixed, especially bluetooth drops.
Updated to it too. Can't spot any diffrences.
Someone on Reddit says it is a security update. Nothing else shows on Google Search.

Was hoping this update fixed the pairing issue on Nexus 4 phones, so I installed your latest ROM update, but it still fails to pair.
Received the update and installed automatically instantly. Haven't noticed anything different and I still can't seem to answer whatsapp calls anymore over bluetooth.
This was working before the last 1.5 update.

Tell me about it!!!! I'm still on "June" update, since I got the watch in July. I've been waiting for the OTA and it never comes. Is there a trick? I go to about>check for updates and its always "up to date". I have my "wifi" going to sleep after 3hrs. The thing always on the puck/charger overnight at 100% battery. But these OTA never happen. Looks like I've already missed the "July" update, and will probably have to get that before the "august" update....
What are you guys doing ??? Other than sideloading via adb....

No where has I seen that Huawei does monthly updates on any device. This was a patch for bluetooth, wifi, and security from comments I have found and searching. Older versions never even mentioned the security patch data. I do see better BT range and few BT dropouts, battery is the same. I don't do calls on the watch but use my BT headset for that.
