No notifications, besides music and software updates on Wear 5.1.1 - Moto 360

For some reason, ever since the update, I don't get any notifications in any form on my watch. It doesn't vibrate, and they don't show up. The only thing that shows up is music, and apps sync themselves, but that's it. I'm considering a reinstall of the Android Wear app, and possible a factory reset of my watch, but I want to know if anyone has this problem and/or knows how to fix it before I do those things.

You will lose nothing by resetting the watch. Everything important is stored on the phone. I've done it many times.

same problem here dude, everything works just as fine after a reset, but god forbid I restart my phone or my watch loses battery, I would be fored to reset the watch all over again

Same problem here. After the update no notifications from the phone. After a reset it's fixed but then after some hours the notifications does not work again.

Same here, check the Android Wear App, mine mostly shows nothing when that happens, but the Watch says that it's still connected. So i just kill the App and after it restarted it self again, everything works fine.

Loose nothing but the hours it takes to get the stuff back on it. Seems to take forever

Yeah, I think you just have a crappy Bluetooth connection. It took 10m for me.
EDIT: I also realized I don't actually have that many apps that support Android Wear, so either you have a crappy connection OR you just have a lot of AW apps. Either way, it still should not take that long.

TickerHistory FC on boot

My phone boots, works for all of about 30 seconds, then TickerHistory FC's, and the phone goes unresponsive until it reboots on its own or I do a battery pull.
I really really really can't have a brick on my hands. What can I do to resolve this?

I'm not a developer but the first question they're going to ask is, "What have you done to your phone thus far?"
(i.e. updated it, rooted it, deleted apps, etc.)
Good call. I removed some bloatware (just a few game demos and the stupid vcast apps store) and rooted. I've hardly done anything. This all started when I removed and re-added my facebook account in accounts. Since this started, I've managed to remove my facebook account from the accounts list, but I'm still having the same problem.

First thing you should probably do is a factory reset.

Thats what i would do, Besides that im no help.
But ive deleted and added accounts for the ticker with out any problems.
I was unable to do a factory reset. The phone wouldn't function long enough for that to work. I doubt that would have fixed it anyway. Regardless, I got a replacement device. All is well.
There was always the factory reset in the recovery screen... (and ODIN flashing)
Just wondering, how long did it take you to get a replacement Continuum?
My Continuum is technically, "Working".. But my baseband version is much lower than it should, and it can't be upgraded (easily).. which means sporadic dropped calls, etc..
I took it to verizon, showed them my phone, and they said "hold on" and went into the back room. They returned with a new phone. Easy as pie.

I had the same problem and restarted my device. At first it displayed the same (incorrect) time, but then it quickly changed to the correct time. Mine was about 20mins ahead.

A few hours post-restart and it looks like the time is off again. It seems to be a cumulative effect...

I had the same issue - got mine a few days ago - after reading the post here I did a full device reset and set it up again with my phone. Been going for about a day and no issues. I wonder if it was an issues with having the new update right out of the box. Who knows. But if your having this issue a quick reset and setup and no issues. Will repost if something changes.

I've had my Moto 360 for over a week now ... love it, recommend it to everyone I know
But I'm having the same problem now. My watch just won't keep time, and it's getting worse and worse (i.e. farther off of the real time). Everything else seems fine - I still get notifications so I know the watch is paired to my phone correctly, my phone's time is set by the carrier and remains correct throughout the day, etc. But now my Moto 360 will "slip" forwards in time by over 20 minutes! I have to double-check the time on my phone every time I check on my watch now, which needless to say is not a very good feature in a watch.
Restarting the watch and reconnecting in Android Wear does fix the time syncronization, but having to reboot my watch a couple times a day is not very desirable obviously. I've reset my watch (Reset device in settings) twice now, rebooted my phone, wiped Android Wear's settings on my phone and uninstalled then reinstalled it - same thing, incorrect time on my watch after anywhere from 1 to 6 hours.
It was perfectly fine when I first got it, and perfectly fine (even better!) after the update. It would be marginally less awful if I could re-sync the time without having to restart my watch, but disconnecting via Android Wear and/or turning Bluetooth off then on again, un-pairing the watch then re-pairing it, etc., all have no effect for me. Super lame :crying:
If I could manually set the time, I could deal with that.
I have time problems as well, but only....

My time-problems comes only when I load any of the clockfaces from "Facer", then it goes a whole hour off.
Some watch faces do not move the hour hand until the second hand advances thru the full hour. Could that be the case?
I got the same problem!!
It was 15 mins ahead and all the sudden the time was corrected by itself...

Just restart the watch. Once it pairs again, the time will be set correctly.

This is not a solution?? You can't look at the watch and not be able to trust the time, without checking your phone to see if it's right?? then sync again. It's a watch!!! It's it's core job. It should be able to be trusted to be right!!!
Mine has been out between 5 and 15 mins 3 times in the last 2 days, always fast. So not a refresh of screen issue.
I use Facer too, but even when I swipe to a standard watch face they are out too, until I do some sysnc with the phone.
I'm going to keep on a standard watch face today, and see what happens. Can't it really be facer? surly it just report the time on the device, will not change anything??
i have reported to Moto too, they know of no issue. Suggest everyone does the same.
On moto forum too;
https://forums.motorola.com/posts/75d3867b9d
Reads like it's a bug in latest firmware. Anyone got confirmation from Moto of this?
I just read on Android Forums that this may be related to wifi router software being out of date. YMMV.

Notifications not showing

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.

Moto 360 Nexus 5 absolute buggy hell

I just received my Moto 360 and went through the pairing process (after letting it charge to 100% to complete the update) and everything went wrong. I went through this process several times and everything seemed okay, then I noticed the time was 9 hours out! nothing would fix it. Furthermore, the watch would not sync my apps properly, apart from hangouts and google music which, upon attempting to open would tell me that my "google wear app needs updating on my phone."
I can't make this thing work. I regret buying it. My nexus 5 is on android 6.0 and my google wear app is completely up to date. I am now updating my phone to 6.1 to see if that addresses the issue, but nothing i do seems to fix anything. This is seriously getting on my nerves! Anyone have any suggestions?
Many thanks
I'm sure you tried everything, since I change ROMs regularly I have found it a slow sync process., every time was different. Is it a refurbished or new also do. You have a option to exchange it. Also once the watch starts updating you kind of have to let it sit awhile to fully set up, and reboot the phone also so the the play store updates, the check for updates on the watch. Make sure you uninstall ware and reinstall if you start over. It still to me a first gen product software. Once you get it going it awesome. Good luck.

[SOLVED] Galaxy Wear App Stuck Thinking it's Backing-Up the Watch

The other day I tried to do a backup of the watch to the phone, and I think it got interrupted. Since then the Galaxy Wear app thinks it's still doing a backup of the watch, which means that I have no access to the backup/restore functions. I have tried disconnecting/reconnecting the watch, rebooting the watch and phone and uninstalling/reinstalling the Galaxy Wear app. I have not tried resetting the watch to default, but I don't want to do that because I don't think I have a complete backup yet.
Does anyone know how kick the ecosystem so that it doesn't think there's a backup happening?
Weird, maybe sign out of Samsung...

Just tried, but didn't work. Phone still thinks it's backing up the watch.
I did a third reboot on my phone and it seemed to clear the problem. I now have control back.
Interesting is that once I got control back, it said the last backup was the previous day, so it seems to indicate it was doing backups even though it thought the backup was still happening.
Glad u got it sorted. Sounds like you have some auto backups... My watch is new and I haven't done any watch Wear backups. I will try to do one manually, then turn it off...
