"Android Wear has Stopped"

After charging my Moto 360 today, it is stuck on a white screen displaying "Android Wear has Stopped" and an OK button. Clicking the OK button refreshes the screen, then displays the same message. I tried holding power to reboot the watch several times, but it defaults back to this white screen immediately upon rebooting.
Any suggestions?

Edit: FIXED
Very weird. I left it on the charger, and started trying to cycle the power (holding the power button down until it restarted). After the 4th time of cycling the power, it let me in to the system menu, and I was able to "reset" the device. Fixed, but still no idea what caused it.

turn off 360
uninstall wear and moto connect
reboot phone, reinstall apps
turn on 360, and connect it

No luck. Tried the above., then tried rebooting the watch with the phone turned off. Nothing seems to work.
The watch literally boots directly into this error screen immediately after showing the Android Wear splash screen.

Just happened to me. I also rebooted a few times using the side button then it would let me into the menu and I could do a reset. Weird.

[HELP] Smartwatch 3 screen frozen in watchface mode (dim)

It just happen this morning
The watch was just charged until full charging. Then I turned on the watch and managed to get up to look watchface and then dim the screen where I noticed instantly freezes .
I tried restarting the watch using the power button and successfully restarted for the first time, and then frozen again after dimming the screen . Now it cannot restart or shutdown anymore even using the same button. It has already passed nearly four hours , if anyone can help?
Thank you friends

When your battery dies try to connect the watch to pc an using the pc companion try to reset it (you have to set it in download mode/recovery )

Latest update broke theater mode

So...the latest update (the one with interactive watch faces) broke theater mode for me. I turn it on but it doesn't actually work. It appears to turn itself off. Anyone else notice this? How do I fix it?

Check if you can wake the watch by touching the screen.
It's not that it is broken but, when you press the power button it automatically turns it off. But not pressing the button you shouldn't be able to wake up the screen...

So...
-I turn theater mode on.
-At some point later I start getting notifications on my watch.
-Moving my arm wakes it up.
-Theater mode appears to be turned off mysteriously when I go to turn it on.

I can report the same issue. Theather mode is completely broken for me as well. Turns itself off all the the time. I'm also noticing random artifacts on the screen, this update seems pretty buggy.

I had a problem with it before the update. after a restart it would turn the mode off. after the update its worse.

I am seeing artifacts too. When I swipe down from the top with the watch showing, when the battery % fades out there is an artifact right of the %.

I also have had the same problem with cinema/theater mode since updating to Android Wear 1.3. When I activate it and then later press the home button, it then deactivates and automatically turns off cinema mode. Today I raised this issue and wrote to Motorola hoping for a response soon.

Yes, its broken. I turn the Theater mode on. At some point when I press the power button to wake the device for a quick glance, theater mode is off.
The most common use case to conserve battery in Moto 360 was to keep it in Theater mode during regular day. While in Theater mode single press turned screen on momentarily for a quick glance. Then it went back to theater mode automatically. This no longer works. Single press now turns Theater mode off instead of just turning screen on momentarily.

Just checked the issue!
I don't want to manually set Cinema Mode ON after checking notifications.
Update = Fail

Broken on my watch too...

The marshmallow update for the moto 360 comes, again, with broken theater mode. Anyone else having this issue?

People who have updated their watch to 6.0.1, probably noticed that it is impossible now to turn off the display function "Theater Mode" during charging. I found a way:
- Turn on "Developer options" (by repeatedly pressing the build number in the information)
- select "Options Wear for a programmer"
- leater Turn on "Force protection against firing"
From the moment you turn on "theater mode", eg by double depressing side button, the screen during charging blank, as was the case for 5.1.1.
There sugerujcie a message about the "Introduction of amendments to restart." It's probably a mistake translate (should rather be "to restart"). Restart, not only that it does not change, but also removes the "Developer options" and you have to call them again.
Sorry bad my engish

Theater mode while charging still works the same for me on 6.0.1 as it did on 5.1.1. I double press the side button and theater mode is enabled until I press the side button to enable regular display mode.

Me after a while, you turn on ambient mode

Not turning on

Hi, i got my SW2 today and it's not turning on. All i see is loading bar that stops at maybe 95% and nothing happens. I touhed it with my Xperia M2 and the phone vibrated with notification ,,Paired with SmartWatch 2". What can i do to fix it?

we can see a loading bar only when the watch reset.

Loading bar shows up witout any backlight. I press and hold the power button and it shows up, nothing happens and all i can do is press and hold again to turn it off

Yes, I see the bar after a watch reset :
- After firmware update
- After severe crash and watch reset and reboot
- After choose reset to factory in SW3 menu
So it seem something wrong during the reset process Try to keep on charger 24H and maybe power up while is connected to power source ?

SW3 won't start

Well a few days ago, like 2 weeks ago, I thougt I lost my SW3 (I use it w / o leash because it broke and there's no replacement for the stainless steel one) but actually it was lost on my travel bag xD
After plug in again it started to charge, but when I tried to turn on (after reach 100%), after the sony and SW3 logo, it turns off, like it has a problem at boot. I tried to repair via Xperia Companion and the process was succesful, but the watch just gets stuck on the same SW3 logo.
Now I think is the battery, but I'm really hoping is not, there are any suggestion guys about what could be happening?

Is it stuck at the 4 dots spinning? If So I have the same problem, I have tried a factory reset, updating the rom via push commands etc I have brought a new SWR50 thats working with ADB debugging enabled this time (Didn't do it on the last one) my question hopefully will help the OP as well can I take a complete clone/rom backup from the working watch then push that to the broken watch (Bare in mind no debugging enabled on the broken one) Also to the OP have you held down the power button to get to the fastboot menu and factory reset/recovery settings? if not then you turn off the watch, press and hold the power button until the "insert usb now" shows, you then press the power button quickly twice to access the recovery menus

I forgot about this thread lol
thanks dude!, A couple times it reached the spinning dots, but not always, sometimes it turned off on the SW3 logo before the dots appear, and actually I tried all those things you mentioned, but it didn't work, also I think my watch is (even more) screwed now xD...
Trying to do a second repair on Xperia Companion, the watch got turned off in mid repair, lending obviously on an error, and also losing the ability of do offline charge so once the battery reach 0, is over...
now when I plug in just stays on the SW3 logo, I still can go to connect USB screen and go to the two clicks menu (and stays on), but every time I try a repair, in the middle of the process disconnects and turns off, I don't know exactly why only when is plugged on the repair process it turns off, even pluged in the PC w/o repair stays connected all the time... bad thing is I don't know if is charging or not, so could stop working anytime

Have you tried to push the update through adb recovery mode?

every day I'm more convinced the watch is screwed
If I turn on the watch stays on the SW3 logo all the time (it seems offline charge works after all), I even can go to the "insert USB" screen and stays on all the time, but when I try to push something to the watch, always disconnects, turns off and the process obvioulsy gets interrumpted, I'm losing my hopes xD
I'm using the original charging wire, but tried with other working ones

my sister bought me this smart watch , it came on long enough to program a few this after I charge it and then 10 minutes later it shut off and now it won't come back on or power up , what should I do ?

I have a weird problem with my sw3. When I plugin my watch to a charger nothing shows up but the watch gets heated up. But when I connect it to PC it just keeps turning on and off. Tried various methods available on this site but none of them worked.
