How to get out of theater mode? - Moto 360

So I know that I can get into theater mode by pressing the button quickly when the screen goes to standby (to turn off the display while charging) but how do I turn it off without having to use the toggles on top?

When the 360 is in theater mode turn the screen on by pressing the power button and then double press the power button to take it out of theater mode.

Activating Sleep Mode

Hi
I am not able to get the device to go into sleep mode (blank display) by touching the power button unless its at the lock screen. Depressing the power button does nothing, other than to activate the quick menu unless pressed for a few seconds. The only time I am able to get the device to sleep via the power button is when the screen has timed out (based on settings) and before the screen in unlocked, otherwise I just have to wait for the screen to timeout.
I cant seem to find anything that would prevent the device going to sleep via the power off button, any suggestions?
Does this happen all the time or only while the phone is charging, as there is a setting that keeps the screen awake while the phone is charging:
Settings>Applications>Development
happens all the time, and I am aware of the stay awake feature during charging
If you're using a custom rom it may have something to do with that. Maybe the key isn't mapped or set correctly. Other then that, that's a pretty odd issues.

Sounds like some buggy program is keeping a wake_lock longer than it should. (The way games and ebook readers keep the screen lit/phone awake).
Had you installed anything new before this started?

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

Theatre Mode Issues

The current android wear version for the moto 360 has caused this theatre mode bug where it turns off immediately after using the power button to turn on the screen. You'll have to go back to the settings to turn it on again for it to work so that's quite annoying, unless you use the double press power button that isn't that reliable. Anyone found a fix for this or does not face this issue care to share valuable information on this?
Same issue i think it is stupid that when you press the power button it turns off theater mode.
I am also getting the same problem. Which version are you both on? I am on 1.3.0.2166028

WiFi getting disabled with the power button is pressed.

I have a head unit where the volume knob also acts as a power button when pressed and puts the device on stand by. When I put press the power button, the screen goes blank. The next time the unit boots up, the wifi is disabled. I have to go into settings and turn it on. Is there a way to prevent this from happening or is there a why to turn on wifi automatically on every boot?

[Bug] Power Off -> Screen On

Hello @all,
anybody of you's got the same bug as I have?
When I turn off the phone by tapping the power button and the back of the phone the screen switches off and quite often switches on immediately again (to the lockscreen)
Also sometimes when I try to enter the Power Menu and longpress the power button the screen switches off, then switches on because it notices that I wanted to enter the power menu and then displays the power menu on the lockscreen...
Maybe a hardware failiure of the power button?
Thanks for your replies!
