Does anyone know if it is possible to only have the watch wake up with the pushing of the button? I'll be getting my 360 later today, and my concern is that it will constantly be waking up while I am just going about my daily activities. It would be nice if there were an option to disable to accelerometer for when one only wants the watch to wake with the physical push of the button.

Not sure if there is an actual way to do this, though I will say that it is sometimes difficult for me to get the watch to wake up when not in ambient mode, and I found myself often times having to tap the screen to turn it on. I haven't had any issues with the watch turning on or doing something without me intentionally doing it; sure it will turn on the screen for a bit if I'm running somewhere, but generally will go right back to sleep if the watch is held with my hands at my sides.

i'd like to disable the stock turn n twist and switch it for an aggressive multi twist to wake.
hopefully we will be able to customize some of the accelerometer settings

I wouldn't worry too much about the battery life. I found that the first couple days I had mine that the battery was scary. It seemed like it would only last half the day. Then, all of a sudden it just got better. I don't think I was using it that much more the first couple days and this was also before the update. I easily get through a full 18 hour day with quite a bit of usage.
However, I would like to see more customization options like you suggest. I'd actually like to be able to customize what the button does. I would like to be able to customize what action the short press and long press does and I would like to have that further broken down into picking the actions for those presses when the watch is awake or asleep. For example, a long press currently takes you to settings which I hardly ever go to, but I go to the "Start app" screen all the time. I wish I could make the long press bring up the "start app" screen. But maybe a long press while the watch is asleep would bring up a specific app instead.
I just bought it yesterday and the watch has been updated to 5.0.2. Cant find findthis settingin andoird wear app as the image attached. I live in Taiwan and pair with lg g3. Tks you guys
When you are on that screen, tap on the item that says "Asus Zenwatch Connected" and you'll see the option to adjust tilt & wake.
thank you very much for the advise I was trying to find that setting aswel.
Buggy Zenwatch keeps turning on twist to wake even though set to "Off"!

My Asus Zenwatch has been buggy as heck lately after the last few firmware updates. The main issue now is that the watch face lights up and comes on whenever I move or twist my arm or hand even though I've set and reset the shake to wake setting to "Off". I've tried resetting and rebooting the watch to no avail. I've noticed that the battery life on my watch has shortened now too as it does not even last a full day! I also used to be able to tap the watch face one time to wake it. Now it does not wake up unless I tap the face two or more times. Sometimes it can't wake up at all and is dead until I press the power reset button on the back of the watch.
It is also constantly vibrating every now and then every few minutes as if I got some notification or lost connection with the phone when none of those activities really happen. It just vibrates and then when I twist my arm up to look at it, it wakes up and lights up even though I have "Shake to Wake" mode turned "OFF"! WTF?

I know you said you reset your watch, but have you done a full factory reset? That should fix just about anything wrong with it...
If that doesn't work, try to pair it temporarily with another phone or perform a factory reset on your phone. Maybe there is an app on your phone causing the watch to go haywire.
Go to setting on Zenwatch and search system update, you will go to 5.1.1, the best version I have see on this watch. Then do a factory reset.
I think this will go fine

No that was not the problem. I was already on the latest updated firmware for awhile when all this bugginess happened. Factory resetting the watch did not help.
I did finally uninstall the Android Wear and the Asus Zenwatch Manager apps and cleared those apps data and cache. Then reinstalled them. Did this several times until I got the watch to connect properly and successfully and stay connected. I adjusted all the settings on the phone app itself instead of from the Asus Zenwatch itself and that seems to have fixed my issues. Twist to wake is really "Off" now and the watch does not keep vibrating every few minutes. So hopefully this will not get corrupted again in time (as it seems to have before).
Hi, at Christmas I received this wonderful SmartWatch.
When accesnione, I would not be wrong, I think I saw a screen asking how long the s were to go into standby after a certain period of inactivity. If I'm right I put 15 minutes.
The question is, does anyone know how to change or disable this stand? Since it is really uncomfortable then the clock off the screen. The clock is beautiful especially with the screen saver.
Obviously this feature is not to be confused with "always on screen" which is different [this is already active].
Thank you
Ouch,I can't follow your grammar sir. You might get some translation help,and cut and paste again........^^^^^^^^
the SmartWatch goes into standby after 15 minutes and turns off the screen. How can I disable this feature?

You may have gotten a watch face that had always on set off, and it never toggled.
Try to turn always on OFF, then after awhile turn it back ON and see if you get the ambient face to show again.

it does with any watchfaces
When I take the watch off to shower,usually 10 to 15 min,I come back out and it's all black. I tap the screen,and it comes back on in ambient mode. I think this is what your referring to. I believe this is a sort of sleep mode to save battery, due to the watch receiving no movement at all. It's a cool feature. If this is happening while still on your wrist,then there might be a problem.???

Oh!! I know what it is....let me check but there is a setting for when the watch is off your arm to go to sleep. If you don't want that we have to set it off.... I found it, it's called "screen lock" you want to turn screen lock off..
Not it. Screen lock is when you have to draw a pattern on the watch face to unlock it,like on most phones now a days.

I found this on that topic, it says 30 minutes though. Maybe there is a time adjustment in the wear app? If not as you mentioned when you first synced up you picked 15, may have to forget and re-sync to chose again?
Tip: Letting your screen turn off when you're not using the watch will help improve battery life. If the watch hasn't moved for 30 minutes, the screen will turn off even if you have it set to remain always on. To wake your watch, tilt it or press the power button.

perfect, I just wanted to change the time from 15 to 30 minutes. it's possible?
I'm thinking you would have to disconnect, and forget, then connect like a new watch to get that setting.

Yes, and we cannot find such setting. Meaning it's a one time pop up when you originally connect watch.
This is just a theory though, I do not remember mine asking this question, and I cannot find a setting for this on the watch. According to the watch notes it should be set at 30 minutes default, maybe before you try anything actually time it?

I did restore Huawei, removed from the SmartWatch Android Wear. I restarted everything but this function has not resumed as the first time.

okay, now take the watch off, and time how long it takes to screen off, default should set it to 30 minutes.

I've had this issue before on my LG Power (Straight Talk branded LG Leon), running on Lollipop 5.0. No matter what I look for I can't find anyone who's experienced similar issues.
It just happened last night on my 5-day old Nexus. I could not open any of my folders to access apps. As soon as a touched a folder, it briefly showed the animation to open it, and it immediately closed. Whenever I selected a widget or the app drawer, they would immediately close as well. When I attempted to swipe down the notification/quick settings shade, they immediately closed themselves. Turning off the screen resulted in the screen immediately turning back on, albeit locked. I was even having trouble turning the device off because the 'Power Off' menu would disappear right after it popped up. Eventually I was able to time it right and was able to power off. Since I restarted I have not have any issues.
Any idea what gives? I'm unrooted, locked bootloader, everything 100% stock, running MM 6.0.1.
the only explanations i can come up with are:
-accidental touching the area in some way (unlikely)
-getting some substance stuck on the screen in that area (unlikely)
-a faulty touch panel (unlikely and very specific defect)
-a hickup in the software (again unlikely)
then again, if the OS (for whatever reason) thinks the home button is pressed, on default it should not only pull you back to the homescreen, but continue and send you right through to google. the conclusion of which would be, that this UI area is triggered repeatedly rather than continuously.
keep an eye out for what could have triggered it in case it occurs again.
check your settings what build exactly you are running (settings -> about phone -> build number).
ans lastly, if it happens again, you should still be able to hold your power button to hard-reboot it (no further interaction with the UI required).

Try to clean your screen also with a towel
That is extremely weird. It really sounds like a faulty digitizer, but you'd be the first... Maybe it's a rogue app, but unlikely.
Were you doing something before this starts to happen?
I haven't noticed any consistent apps or behaviors when this would occur. This most recent time, I was low on battery (10%) and I had just flipped on my data.
fyi. you could also just press and hold the power button, for 10 secs, for a reboot ( might come in handy when the screen isn't working properly).

appreciate the tip! I'll keep this in mind if it happens again.
Finally was able to capture a video. The issue occurred after I was playing around with Open Camera and it crashed. Holding down the power button didn't work when this glitch is happening.

What's the icon on the lock screen, top right in the status bar? That behavior is unusual if it's not a screen defect. Are you using any apps that monitor battery, a task killer, or maybe a security monitor app?

The icon is a picture for my user profile on the phone.
I don't use anything like that. I had Clean Master installed briefly but it's been uninstalled for a couple of days now.
so it seems like this issue pops up whenever the camera crashes. happens occasionally when using the camera shortcut (double power tap) or in an app that uses the camera.
It's got to be software IMO. It didn't happen when you went to Google Now and your Recent Apps. I'd try uninstalling the Open Camera app first. Do you have Face Unlock active by chance? After that I'd FDR...

right, that's what's confusing me. i did a factory reset last week, set up the phone as a new device. haven't installed a new camera app, just the stock google camera. the issue occurred again last night when using an app called Shopkick, which accesses the camera but crashed.
Recently (last week or two) tilt-to-wake has stopped working, and the option to enable it no longer exists on the on-watch settings menu.
The toggle for tilt-to-wake is still present in the Wear OS phone app (under Advanced settings) but even when on, the tilt-to-wake functionality no longer worked. The only way to wake the watch is to tap the screen or press the side-button.
Anyone else noticed this? It is driving me mental!
Cheers
Uhh... scratch that. After rebooting watch, new Google App was installed and it is back to working as normal! Should have tried that first.
