Hi, i just recently got a first gen moto 360. I love it so far but I have a few questions. First, is there a way to disable the weather card from popping up every time i turn on the screen? Its really annoying. Second, how do I turn on theatre mode? I dont have any option in my settings. Could I need to update my watch for it? I recieved a message asking me to update but then it said I didnt have enough space? Now when i go through settings and tap system update, it just shows a white screen with ota update then some letters and numbers under it, otherwise i cant do anything except go back. Thanks for any help and sorry if this got a little long.

I updated earlier to 4.4w.2 and it went smoothly but I noticed that my cards don't show up on my watch face when I bring my wrist up to look at them. It pretty much shows just my watch face. I was under the impression that with the new update the cards show up and I can swipe them down for later not not show up at all which isn't good for me cause then Im not sure what I just got at a glance.
Is that how the update makes the watch behave now or did mine get a little screwed?
Try restarting your watch. Worked for me..
I'll give it a go
Mine's been the same way since the update; but I'm not sure either if it's supposed to be that way or if its a bug. I was under the same impression as the OP, that they'd appear by default and you could hide them when needed.
I had issues with no cards and no notifications, and none of the apps would launch. I rebooted my phone and after it came up, then rebooted my watch and now everything is working. The only thing i'm having issues with, it that it keeps putting itself on silent. I'll set it to vibrate and about 2 hours later i'll look down at my watch and see that I had a notification. I go to check the volume and it had put itself on silent. Kind of annoying. Did it both with the 4.4w.1 and the newest update.
Okay I think I figured out a solution to the issue; in my case I just didn't understand what a certain setting in the Android Wear app actually meant. The one that says "Show Cards When Display is Dimmed", has two options: Always Show and Always Hide. Previously, I always chose "Always Hide", and cards would pop up as normal on the home screen clock; but now that's not how it works. Choosing "Always Hide" means cards will never show up on your homescreen clock (and you won't have the option to swipe them up). Choosing "Always Show" on the other hand, gives you the option: a card will pop up on the clock screen as usual, but you can swipe it down to hide it and swipe back up to bring it back. The card will also be reflected when the ambient screen comes on, unless you swipe it down to hide it. Anyway, figuring this out helped my issue so I thought it might be worth mentioning.
Ok, I may be stupid, but how do you back out of apps on the Moto 360? If I open mini launcher, or moto steps, I cannot "back out" unless I hit the physical button which turns the screen off..........that's annoying.........
Not that I'm in a hurry, but am I just being dumb?? I figured someone would tell me I asked a stupid question by now? Do we all really have to turn the watch on and off basically in order to get back to the watch face?

Swipe left.
Ok, I open "moto body steps" and it shows my steps, I swipe left and I get a "total" left again and I get a menu to pick the "units of measure" left again and nothing, right past the initial page and I'm back at "mini launcher" left from mini launcher and I get a menu showing my battery, the brightness, and some buttons for wife and other items..... right again and nothing..... the same is true from any app I open from Mini Launcher, so maybe that's the problem??
tried to open from the "start" menu and even from there it was exactly like above.....

Swipe from the left, but place the finger in the middle of the watch screen.
You can assign on your mobile with Wear Mini Launcher application from where the drawer position should be.
Left, bottom or right
I knew I was going to feel stupid, but I also feel much better. The first 2 days I had this watch I had a lot of trouble figuring out how I could make it useful, it seemed almost silly...... but as I continue to wear it I am seeing it's usefulness!! Thanks everyone, I'll mark it "solved" ..... and yes, it's almost always operator error for me
It's all because you didn't go through the initial intro on the watch or on the android wear app... You skipped out of it..

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).
The attached screenshot shows what Im talking about. See the Amazon message goes off screen? Is there an app or anything I can do with root to make the notifications scroll?
I keep having titanium backup network errors but the notification goes off screen and I can't read it! I don't know where to access the notifications for that app or any other to help me trouble shoot. This seems like a really stupid miss on Google's part. I'd love for these to scroll. Sideways so you could read the whole notification.
Edit: unable to upload pic now but I think everyone gets the point.
Turn on auto rotate and you might be able to read the whole message in landscape.

Already tried that and it didn't work. Notification is too long. I changed the system text to the smallest setting too. I got a few more letters with these changes but not enough to shed light on what I need to know.
I'm new here and I'm not an expert, maybe someone could relate or knows how to fix these problems.
I want the "do not interrupt" mode to vibrate with the contacts that I put in exceptions, the ones that can interrupt when the mode is activated, does anyone know how to do that?
My moto g20 is new, I got it for xmas. My previous phone was a Samsung J5 Prime, and its "do not disturb mode" worked better, because it has more options, this mode on the moto G20 mute everything, and the contacts or apps that you allow to "interrupt" they can, but they don't make any sound or vibration.
And I think there is a bug that makes applications disappear from my home screen. I happened with google maps, I put it back and then there were two google maps on my home screen, maybe I'm crazy but maybe someone noticed this.
Also, the navigation buttons animations are kinda bugged, like, you press it once and the animation of pressing it does not end consistenly or properly (image attached, the animation freezes like that until a new input get registered), how do I fix these two bugs?
I uninstalled bloatware with ADB the first second I turned on the phone, maybe this is causing me problems?
Also, what blows my mind is that my older phone has better options that this brand new phohe released recently, it has no themes or icons customization, lintern brightness levels, and insensity or vibration patterns options, my previous phone did.
Sorry for the long text, I searched all the web but find nothing, because is a new phone. Also I contacted to Motorola support and has no response yet, neither from the motorola forums.
Thanks for reading
