My nexus 5 was recently updated and my moto 360 is barely usable. I would sometimes miss notifications before this update but recently it's been a lot worse. Sometimes the watch face disappears completely and it's just a blank screen. I'm also getting errors saying that fit needs android wear to update.
I've tried doing a factory reset as well with no luck

uninstall the wear app then reinstall it
I've noticed that after the update some notifications doesn't wake up the watch or make it vibrate, when you use the "try notifications" from the Android wear app just 4 of them wake up the watch, i hope that with the next update al notifications are shown in the watch .
This may sound stupid but it worked for me. I was only getting some notifications too. Tried setting new watch faces and syncing from my phone but nothing fixed it. This is what fixed it for me. I changed the watch face from the watch itself, and then hit the little settings gear on the watch face, edited something, and then selected the face. All notifications worked after that.
I went from a Kit Kat to Lollipop phone. It no longer recognizes when I say "OK Google." Shazam can no longer hear anything either. It worked fine on 5.1.1 with my Kit Kat phone. I did a factory reset on the watch and then initiated pairing with my new phone. Since then, I've done two more factory resets on the watch, uninstalled and reinstalled Android Wear. Nothing has worked.
I noticed the UI on the Moto 360 changed a bit after the upgrade. It used to go to the actions/voice recognition list if I tapped on the watch face. Now it opens the app screen and the actions list is the third tab over. Is it supposed to be like that?
Any suggestions?
So when you guys are on the watchface and tap on it once, does it bring up the settings icon like mine does now? Or does it go to "Speak now"?
Hi all
I've recently started using my Moto 360 again alaong with my HTC M8 running the Radium 1.4 ROM. I set the watch up and all was working perfectly. I then noticed the watch was not receiving any notifications, this was after I had been out for a while with the watch at home. The only way I could figure out re-enabling them was to factory reset the watch then set it up again. I don't want to have to do this every time I go out without the watch etc. I had similar problems with the watch not pairing via Bluetooth with my phone after it had already been paired. The only way I could get it to pair was again to factory reset. This issue seems to have gone away now and it's just the notifications that seem to be a problem.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
Looks like ROM issue!

Hello,
It is actually an issue with the recent Android Wear app update...just read all the comments from 360 owners. Mine will not connect either.
Cheers
Well at least it was nothing to do with my phone/watch/ROM. Must have been updated recently as it's been fine! Back on form
Cheers

After 4 Android Wear updates they finally fixed the connection issue. I sent them several bug reports and I swear they didn't even look at them.

I'm still having problems where my Moto 360 won't show notifications (text, email, phone calls). I've tried every recommended solution. After a factory reset it works for maybe 30 minutes and then stops. One thing I've noticed (and I don't know if it's related or not) is that the Android Wear version on my Phone (Galaxy S5) is 1.3.0.2284253 and on my Moto 360 it's 1.3.0.2166028. Shouldn't they match?

For anyone who runs across this at some point, I solved the problem (at least for me). I unistalled Light Manager and now I'm getting all notifications.
Arrrgh mine has started doing this again! It had been fine for a few weeks. Seriously needs sorting out
I just got a new Moto 360 2 days back, and noticed this issue soon after it updated itself maybe to 5.1.1. I restart my phone everytime i face this issue which seems to fix it. Also android wear shows an error message mentioning notification sync is not working.

Still isn't resolved for me sadly and restarting the phone doesn't work. I'm just flashing a new ROM to see if that helps. My watch has randomly been saying Google Play Services isn't installed on the phone when it is. Strange happenings here!
I have exactly the same problem! Saying Google play services are not installed, no whatsapp or text notifications until I get an email then they mysteriously appear. also if I toggle notification to priority and back they appear. doing my head in
You need to restart the phone and the watch, not just the phone.
Also can try removing your phone from your watch's bluetooth pair list then also "forget" the watch in your phone's bluetooth menu, then re-pair the two. Should work no problem after that.
I find this only happens if i stray away too far from either device or one of them gets restarted for some reason.. but yeah, restarting both the phone and the watch, removing the phone and watch from both bluetooth lists, and then re pairing, has fixed it every time for me. No having to factory reset the watch or reflash rom or anything drastic like that.
Now if you're phone is always in your pocket/purse which is on you all the time and the watch is on your wrist too and it just drops connection randomly... then i'd say something is messed up with your watch or phone.
So I was hesitant to proceed with the update since my 360 has been working so well and the battery life increased tremendously when I got my Note 5.
After a few days of the update pestering me I decided to go for it.
Now there are 2 things that are very annoying.
The first, whenever the screen comes on, there is a slight delay in the watch face.
It lights up with a black face and the hands are white, then it switches to whatever face I have and respected dials.
I'm not using facer or anything, just the stock moto Dials 2. This is very annoying and makes the watch seem slow.
The second thing is that the watchface doesnt turn on when I receive texts anymore.
The vibrate function still works, but the screen won't light up.
Is there a setting that changed making this the default? I would prefer the screen turn on when I receive texts.
Thanks
Make sure 'card previews' turned on from the android wear app, other wise your experience with the faces sounds buggy! A factory reset would help on that.
Factory reset doesnt work, this also happens to me since the update, looks like this is a firmware problem.
Damnit, I wish I didn't update.
Battery is also noticeably worse.

Same exact two issues here and I'm shocked I haven't seen more people complain about them. The first one is a nuisance but the second one completely devalues the purpose of the watch making it useless. Not seeing the text/email/etc... and only having a vibration on your wrist is pointless. I could keep my phone on vibrate in my pocket if I wanted to be notified of a new text/email without seeing the actual message. Please post a fix if one is found!

Can you found a way to fix it?

The first issue is because the watch now comes on in ambient mode first. Even if you don't use ambient mode. It sucks. Luckily i use Watchmaker for my watch face so I went in and made all the parts (hands date etc...) to be visible in ambient mode.
I have noticed that if I wait a couple of seconds the notification does appear on my watch screen but it is after the vibrate, not immediate. I thought it wasn't showing up at first too. Still, I wish it was quicker as I look right away.

I went back to using Facer for my watchface and the delay is gone.
Also did they completely remove the restart option? Now it's just power off, and then press and hold the side button.
I'm experiencing both issues as you do on 6.0.1.
Also yes, reboot option is gone from update.
The renamed reset with "unpair from watch". Not gone, just to mess with us.

Reboot is not reset...
I've also noticed that theater mode does not work after the mm update (unrooted, ota). I usually set it to theater mode at night to avoid burn in and just because I don't want it on all night. Now, it looks like it's blacked out, but when I wake up, the charging screen is lit up. Anyone else getting this?
I have the exact same issue after the update. Theater mode will not keep the display off if the watch is being charged. Off the charger, it works as expected. Quite an annoying bug.
If I turn ON the theatre mod with double press the power button before I put the clock on the charging dock, after that screen continue charge with screen off.
For me it's work.
Can anyone try it?

Just tried that - doesn't work for me. Screen turns off but once I put it on the charger, it comes back on after a few seconds. I'm watching it and it's still on a few minutes later.
Same here. Screen always turns back on
I'm getting the first bug the OP mentioned havn't noticed the second one though.
However the first bug is annoying enough, hopefully there'll be a quick patch.
Little patience, update to Marshmallow is great.
Here's what I mean with screen off when charge:
So in the morning until you take it out of the dock and go to work.

Sorry I read wrong...but wouldn't you just use the power off option and then turn back on to reboot?
Since the latest Android Wear update a few days ago, my watch appears connected to my Honor 7, but I don't receive notifications anymore.
I can change the watchface from the phone, i can find the phone from the watch, so there is communication.
If I disconnect the watch, delete android wear from the phone, restart and do a new connect with the watch, it works again, i receive all notifications again. Until, I shut down the watch or restart the phone, then nothing again.
Resyncing apps via Android Wear on the phone does not help. Any clues?
Honor 7 with MM6.01 (b371) and M1D63M on watch.

Interestingly I am experiencing the exact same at the moment.. Oddly enough it worked just fine yesterday, but not two days ago or today...
Thanks for replying, now at least I know this is not just me.
I am also having the same problem. I need to disconnect and reconnect several times in a day to get notifications. I thought the latest update was just security fix but i think it has messed up the core functionality as well.
for me, even the watch face cannot be changed from phone.
Funny I ignored this thread until it happened to me just today

i'm going crazy....same issue happened to me!!! i'm looking forward to find a solution ASAP!!!
Same is happening to me. I've tried all of the above as well but no success keeping the notifications from disappearing.
Interestingly though, I also have an app installed called Feel the Wear which lets you set different vibrations on the watch for different types of notifications. I only use one custom vibration for hangouts. Whenever I get a hangouts message, I still get the custom vibration on the watch but the message itself doesn't hit the watch.

Well, apparently this is becoming an issue. I don't think Sony is to blame, because it started just after the latest Android Wear update, my watch was working perfectly before that. Anywhere I can download a previous version? Then I will install that version and don't allow it to update for now until Google has fixed the issue........
Just this morning I received an update OTA on my watch to version M1D63X, but unfortunately no changes to the notification problem........
Just connected again with my z1 compact, works well, everything fine with the notifications. Therefore it must be something to do with the honor 7 or with mm6, because my z1 compact runs on lp5.1
Same on my watch + Xperia Z3 Compact. There must be some problems with Android Wear app, many of my friends have the same problem. Notifications work after reconnecting but not for a very long time.
Also incoming mails are notified a couple of times in a row for some time, f.e. I get banggood offers mail which is notified on the phone and on the watch, then in the next 5 minutes there goes another notification about the same mail, and again, and again... until I dismiss that notification. Drives me crazy so I just immediately swipe e-mail notification when it arrives (I don't want to block the app).
Hoping for a quick fix...
Every time this problem occurs I simply restart the watch and phone at the same time. Fixed the problem every time. Restarting the watch alone does not help.
Also can confirm that the watch indeed is connected to the phone, no notifications go through to the watch. Had a song successfully identified by Shazam on the watch while the problem was present...
After yesterday upgrade my OnePlus X to android 6.0.1 - Sony SW3 stops receiving notifications. There is info at android wear app, that synchronization was shut down and i have to restart phone to resolve that problem. After restart it works for some time and then the same problem. I think that some program is shutting down by android but i dont know where i can find it, and what it is. Anybody? App that sends notifications to watch?
Same with me. I only get the notification by the app Feel the Wear and having custom vibrations on Gmail, Whatsap and Facebook. But no notification on the watch itself. Also since the last 2 updates.
Since flashing a Nougat rom on my Nexus 6, I have been receiving all notifications on the watch. It's only been a few days but so far so good. Still not a fix for anyone stuck on MM but try flashing Nougat on your phone if you have the option.
Edit: I flashed a couple of different Nougat roms which requires two separate factory resets of the watch. not sure if that had anything to do with notifications coming through.
