[Q] - SW2 and Lollipop 5.1

My phone won't even connect to the device. I open smart connect and realize it wont recognize my watch. Anyone else encountering this? I am using a nexus 6 device.

Got it working. I had to reset the watch from the options menu.

Good for you. Hope that don't have issues when I receive Lollipop on my Z.

Got Lollipop on my Z1, the watch was realy buggy...
Had to do a reset also, now it looks better.

Smart unlock is not working since I upgraded to Lollipop on my Z2.
Tried resetting watch as above, but it did not help.

Replying to my own post.
It works fine under Lollipop. It is just that the update turns off Google Smart Lock. You have to turn it back on:
Settings --> Security --> (Scroll Down to Advanced) Trusted Agents -->
Turn on 'Smart Unlock (Google)'
If not already done, it will tell you that you need to set a PIN. Do so, then return and Turn on 'Smart Unlock (Google)'
Unpair the watch (or other BT device), and pair again. You will now get the Notification to add it as a trusted device.

Apps not in the List
I'm on TW Lollipop 5.1.1 and for me the following solution worked:
install Smart connect & Smartwatch 2 App and all other apps/smart extensions you need
connect/pair your Smartwatch2
Activate Autostart/Autorun for all the Smartwatch apps/extensions you installed (depending on the Rom you use, in the settings or with an app that manage Auto starting)
reboot your phone
done
at this point, if the app list of your smartwatch doesn't refresh you have to add these steps
disconnect bluetooth (disable it on smartwatch)
unpair/remove the Smartwatch from your bluetooth devices on your smartphone and switch bluetooth off after that
reset the Smartwatch (settings in smartwatch -> software reset)
clear cache and data of smartconnect & smartwatch2 app
pair/connect the Smartwatch with your phone
Maybe you have to do one more "bluetooth off/on" switch
done
sorry for no pictures

Android Auto Funkiness

Anyone else using a Note7 with Android Auto? At first the connection to my car was intermittently dropping and then it was OK. I have Pandora, Slacker, and Play Music installed on my phone and active but the only one that shows up in the car is Play Music. I haven't played with it yet but there's not much to troubleshoot - they're either there or there not. My Note5 was 100% perfect with Android Auto so it's definitely something on the Note7 side.

No issues so far but I also don't use those two programs. Perhaps uninstall and reinstall those two programs in the meanwhile?

HTC 10 user here, and have the same issues as you.
I stabilized the BT connection by deleting the pairing on my radio and phone, then plugging in the USB C cable and allowing the car to autopair them together.
I have Play Music and Amazon Prime Music installed, both supporting Android Auto. However only Play Music shows up for me. This was the case on my S7E as well, but not my Note 5. At this point I suspect it's related to the SD820 and/or devices shipping from the factory with 6.0.1. I've been through factory resets more times than I can count, and the same thing happens.

Apps that are restored (IE - Smart Switch) are not showing up on AA... You can uninstall/reinstall and they will show back up.
I tested this for naught im sure while in the chickfila drive thru....

Oh well, Play Music it is. You can open apps from Recent Apps and Pandora and Slacker play fine through the car when controlled from the phone. But the steering wheel controls don't work. So we can only hope that (in my case) when AT&T pushes an update out in six months it gets fixed. It would be great if the Android Auto app on the phone could be the fix but if the problem's been around since the S7e it's unlikely that alone is the issue.

This is interesting, and I'll have to test this when I get back home tomorrow. From the look of your Hazard button, you have a Sonata like me, and I do restore apps through Google on device setup, or Titanium (app only, no data).

Why yes.... I love my Sonata Limited.
And trolling!

I've got all 3 of these on my phone and all work fine from the start in AA. The only AA issue I've encountered is that when on a call I can't figure out how to get it to show the dialer pad. When on a conf. call I get options like to tap *60 to stop the God awful wait music and to hit # after I announce my name. It's weird. I think it's that AA hasn't had an update in a bit so the dialer from the Note 7 isn't fully recognized. I dunno. But 99% of AA works for me.
BTW. I'm using a Pioneer 8100NEX which I doubt makes a diff as the AA server that the phone app connects to is the same in every car on the market and the head unit itself runs Android 4.4.2 just as my wife's '16 Accord does.

Uninstall Android Auto and delete your Bluetooth pairing. Then make sure Google TTS is set to the default on your phone, if Samsung TTS is trying to interfere, you will have this issue. If you cannot disable Samsung TTS, you may need to use Package Disabler Pro from the Play Store to do it for you. I had to do it on my Note 5, but not the S7 Edge.
Once that is done, reinstall Android Auto and then let the USB connection do the pairing for you.

unpair (reset) and pair again..

It seems that instead of disconnecting and reconnecting when out of range, my Moto thinks it's unpairing and keeps sending repair requests. You have to accept these on both phone and watch. But then it no longer keeps the phone as a trusted device. Hopefully we won't have to wait another 1.5 years for a fix.

Can not pair with phone after 2.0 update

After the 2.0 update on my Huawei Watch, I had some problems with connectivity so I reset my watch. Now my Phone (Huawei Nexus 6P) can not pair with the phone. The Watch does not show up in Android Wear and my Bluetooth connections. So far I have reset my phone and watch but made zero progress. Anybody else that has encountered this problem?

Same exact situation here, i just got the watch from the B&HPhoto open box deal, paired and worked perfectly with my Nexus 6P. Updated to wear 2.0 and no matter what i try my Google account won't sync. WiFi, Bluetooth connected fine but Google account connection just sits and spins. I kind of like 2.0 better, seems smoother, and don't wanna have to roll back. Any help would be greatly appreciated¡

I had the same problem when updated to AW 2.0.
At the end I had to restore the smartwatch to factory settings a couple of times, and finally the Android wear app was able to find my watch...

Finally got my Google account to sync. All i had to do was clear the data and cache in the apps Google, Google play services, Play store, and Android Wear then reset the watch...... Four or five times. Something the average consumer would think of doing, lol. Get your chit together and fix this Google!!!

My HW1 will not connect to the Android Wear OS app all of a sudden.

**Update... Problem solved by doing a full reset on my watch. Also, apparently the Huawei app no longer supports the HW1 as well.
I had to do a hard reset on my LG Stylo 3 the other day and today I find that I cannot install a different watch face from my WatchMaker app because the watch is not connected to the Wear OS app. The watch is connected to my phone via Bluetooth and WiFi but the Wear OS app cannot find it. It will not connect to the Huawei Wear app as well. I have reset the BT connection as well as did a re-pairing of the watch to the phone as well. I hope one of you has a solution for this as I am out of ideas other than doing a full reset on the watch. Thanks for any help on this.
