Google Play Services for Wear

I managed to be an idiot and reset my 360 to try and force the new update. Obviously that doesn't work. However, I had Google Play Services 6.1.74 before I reset. I have a presentation at work tomorrow that involves a wear app that I built and due to the mismatched services, my app and the phone aren't talking to each other. Yes I could build with downgraded gps, but I would prefer to just install 6.1.74 on my 360. Do any of you guys know if the watch uses the same apk as phones? If so I'll just install via adb. Otherwise, does anybody have the wear 6.1.74 that I could get?

Maybe this will help, go into the play store on your device, then select settings, scroll down to build version and tap on it. Google play store and services will update if it hasn't already.

Unfortunately you can't open the play store on android wear. That is a great tip though, thanks!

I meant on your phone or device that your watch connects too. For example my moto 360 connects to my galaxy s5 so on my GS5 i open the play store then settings ect.

Derp, my bad. I gotcha haha. Fortunately it updated google play services in the middle of the night. Now to wait for the firmware update. The demo at work went well. haha

Notification "connected, in connection" vanished

Hello everyone, I'm new. Forgive my English.
This morning I'm going to turn on the phone and Moto 360, and noted that the notification is vanished from the drop-down menu that shows me they are connected or not to the Moto 360. To find out, now I'm forced to open Android Wear.
Moto 360 firm: 5.0.2
Android Wear: last in playstore
Moto Connect: same android wear
Note 4 N910U firm.....4.4.4 -.-
Anyone can help me please? Thanks!

I have exactly the same problem since today morning. I use Sony Z3 running lollipop.
----
Update: it looks like this is by design by latest Google play services update to version 7.3.

What your seeing is the new results of Google Play services being updated to 7.3.29 I believe. With this new update, if your Android Wear Connected Devices are connected and working fine, the notification auto hides itself. It is though suppose to pop back up when there is a problem between sync and devices but I have not seen it do that.
With the older Google Play Services such as 7.0.99 the notification was always there with no way of hiding it or turning it off.
The new Google Play Services was suppose to prepare phones to be able to work with the new features coming to Android Wear and firmware updates to the moto 360 and other smart watches.
Also there was a bug in the older Google Play Services keeping it always on and a connection always running due to it trying itself to look for OTA's through Google Servers I assume for GPE editions of phones and watches. I think now from watching over the new version on my Verizon Note 3 that it is now fixed and is the last thing always running in the battery rundown list. Before the update and with the older version it was the first in the list for draining battery on Lollipop!

Just as an update to my earlier post, the newer newest android wear is up live on the Google Play store. It has the sync to cloud option so that you can use WiFi mode on smart watch.
Only issue now is we still are waiting for new firmware to enable it on the Moto 360.

Thanks for the answers.
Wait for the new version then, as to me it is not yet appeared.
Thanks for the help!

Well, on my Z3 the notification does not appeared when watch was disconnected.

Android Wear with 4.6.1

Has anyone been successful with pairing an android wear watch with the fire phone?
I've been trying for the last 2-3 days with a moto 360 and have had no luck.
The device see's each other, but doesn't stay connected. The watch will state that it's disconnected from a phone.
I've also tried using a friends phone that will pair with the device, install beelink on the watch, and attempted to pair it with the fire phone. When I open the app, the watch see's the phone and attempts to pair, but I get the error "Incorrect password or pin".
Edit:
It's been 24 hours straight and it's stayed connected.
So far this works for me
My Android Wear is 10.4.1611133
My Google services is 7.0.99
My Playstore is 4.6.17
What doesn't work for me:
Google Hangouts
Gmail
I can use the play store to download apps without services updating.
Gmail and google hangouts both updated my services and caused a headache, I just stopped using both.
Wear messenger works like a charm.
-Aeris Weather Wear does not seem to work.

This is the thread I have been waiting for. Hopefully someone will have a solution for you... Been dying to buy a 360 but don't want to have to buy a phone on top of it...
Sorry I am no help with knowledge but helping with emotional support...

So... Did you happen to ever get it to work? No one else has chimed in, which is scary.
Thanks

it was just a OTA-Update. I have a german device. Before it was 3.6.6. Sorry buddy i dont have a workaround for you
Ok, the problem with 4.6.1 is, that apparently some apps will auto-update your google play services to 7.9.3. (maybe the play store itself initiated the auto update)
I installed fleksy and after that the play service made an update. So i deinstalled the play services and installed the version 7.0.99 again.
But the moto360 couldn't connect to my fire phone again. so i had to reset the moto360 and i re-installed android wear 1-0-5-1785466.
It works again, but i bet, if the play services will update itself again, i have to repeat all the steps again.

I'm in the same boat as you.
Right now I'm limited to what I can do because if google play services updates, it becomes an annoyance.
Right now I've gone 24 hours without an issue. But I haven't opened my play store because I don't want it to update my google services.
My Android Wear is 10.4.1611133
My Google services is 7.0.99
My Playstore is 4.6.17 (Even though I try not to open it)
So far it seems to work.
If you can figure out a version of hangouts that will not update services, I'd love you forever.

This worked for me (after upgraded to 4.6.1):
Android Wear: 1.1.1.1889093
Google Account Manager: 4.4.2-940549
Google App (Now): 4.5.13.19.am
Google Play Service: 7.3.29 (1866531-036)
Google Play Store: 5.4.12
Google Service Framework: 4.4.2-940549
InstaWeather: 1.4.3.9
On Moto 360, I got all notifications

works like a charm
Hi guys, first off all you need the 4.6.1 US version ending in 820 and with that update all the problems will be fixed. This fix all the google problems and runs smooth with all the latest updated google apps and services.
The android wear works great and the moto 360 is awesome and responding better then on my Samsung phone

I hate this phone right now because Google updated its play services to 7.8.3.
1. You probably installed Play services 4.4.x, but it then updated it automatically to 7.8.3. That has been breaking everything google on this pone.
2. check the general forum and you'll see them.
I can't wait until I get the LG G4.

Actually, update your phone first. I had the same issue with the google play store, so I completely removed it from the phone. After the most recent update to FireOS, everything works smashingly. Uninstall google play services, update your phone, then put everything google back. Bada bing, bada boom, all better.

Agreed. After updating to 4.x it's been great. Even the overlapping font on google maps is gone. I can change my keyboard easily.
But I'm still going to get the LG G4.

[POSSIBLE FIX] Android Wear 1.4 - Google Play Stopped Working

[POSSIBLE FIX] Disable Google Fit app on Moto 360. Working so far...
Thanks to several users on google support and reddit
I received my OTA update for Android Wear 1.4 this morning.
Running a Moto 360 V2 and a stock Nexus 6 with MRA48N.
Now my watch keeps giving Google Play Services has stopped working error on screen.
I've tried factory reset and older version of Android Wear... Nothing works.
PLEASE HELP

Same issue here. I tried the old fix of unpairing, deleting Android Wear from phone and installing and older APK. Factory reset watch and ran through the set up...all seemed to work fine until the Android Wear app updated, then back to same issue.

I found a solution, worked for me with moto 360 v2 and stock Galaxy S6
-Unpair watch from android wear app
-Factory reset watch
-Unistall Android wear (data and cache clead first)
-Clear data and cache from Google Play Services
-Reboot phone
-Fresh install Android Wear APP from google play store
-Pair the watch
Rock Solid :good:

I was able to resolve the issue by unpairing the watch from Android wear on my phone, Factory Resetting the Watch and then pairing it up to a Nexus 7 Tablet running Android 6.0 and the latest version of Android Wear. The watch synched to the tablet, was able to receive notifications. Once i confirmed there was no more "Unfortunately, Google Play services has stopped error", i then unpaired from the Tablet Android Wear, Factory reset the watch and re-paired to the same original phone running the latest Android Wear.
It has been almost 9 Hours since this was completed and this appears to have resolved the issue for me.

This worked for me too. It appears to be Google's recommended path... and I've yet to have it let me down. On my fifth (ugh, don't ask) Android Wear watch... this basic strategy has (painstakenly) worked each time. Especially when I get a watch that has been in cold storage, and still has Android Wear 1.0W on it.

My watch disconnects whenever i install any wear enhanced app / watchface. I have to restart the watch to reconnect it. It happens on installing any app/face! Plz help.
PS: tried reseting the watch and the phone too. I have it paired to a Moto X2014 running 5.1 stock unrooted.

its end of januari 2016 and still have the same problems. I read people who factory reset and install the wear app back and its fixed. but its not. if the watch gets disconnected a few times for being to far away from Phone then after a while whatsapp messages stop working to show up. I also get the message that i need to installe google play services. on my Phone. wich is installed and on latest version...
Only thin working right now is using the android wear app 1.1 wich works perfectly. But in the play store the update keeps popping up so i need to watch out that i dont press update all. because then it will be reinstalling the latest version wich is a *****.
Cant wait until 1.5 is released.... hope it will be fixed then.
is there a way to report this to google or Motorola somehow. everyone seems to have the same issue here. why isnt this fixed sooner?
