I saw this method in a comment on Engadget and it seemed sketchy, but I tried it and it worked perfectly.
Go to apps> all >google services framework
Force stop the app and clear data(or the other way around, doesnt matter which order)
Go to about system and then check for updates.
The phone will say it was last updated 12/31/1969....click check now and then magic.
*note: you may have to repeat these steps multiple times before it finally shows the update ...for me it was 2...but others were reporting up to 6 times
Awesome, worked like a charm for me
Works .......took about 4 times. Now to lock bootloader.

Just bear in mind that if you do this, push notifications will break in many apps like Twitter, Android Lost, GetGlue, IMDB, Instagram, etc. The only way to get them working again is to clear the data for each individual app and set it up again.

They won't break in every app, only certain ones. I believe it depends on how the individual app implements push notifications.
worked for me
first time no, changed order of clear/force stop, worked

Thanks! Worked like a champ for me. Only had to do it twice before it updated.

Took four times and worked like a charm. So happy to not have to wait any longer.

I'm having this exact same issue, non-rooted, unlocked bootloader....anyone got any suggestions?
I had tried this numerous times on Friday with no luck, but I did it today and Boom, it's downloading now!!
Question
It took about 8 times before this worked for me. This may be a stupid question but, after the update, when rebooting my phone, I get the unlock icon as if I had unlocked the boot loader but I have never done that on this phone is that supposed to happen?
I've been trying this periodically over the last 3 days. Probably done it 30 times.
Still nothing. (Not unlocked or rooted.)

Same here, except I have root. I am still completely stock 4.0.2 though, including radios.
Did the update unlock anyone else's phone?

No one else has had this method appear to unlock their boot loader?
My watch just downloaded an update and is flashing now. No idea what this is. Will post back when it reboots. This isn't a new watch either, have had my watch for months now. Hope this is the expected August update!!

Can someone please test the weather app, it just says "weather data can not downloaded - check your internet connection" (translated from german)
Any settings I can do there ? I tried bluetooth connection via Nexus 5 and WIFI - both do not work with weather app...
Versions are:
AW: 1.3.0.2160025
PlayServices: 7.8.99 (2134222-543)
System 5.1.1
BuildNr: LCA43
There is also a new watch face called together let's you message other watches I think fails to load for me. Might have to do a factory reset. Also noticed the round corners don't show on everything just some watch faces and apps, also weather isn't working for me.
You didn't manage to pull the OTA did you?
Aside from the faces, given that this is a new firmware, i am VERY interested in seeing if the battery bug has been addressed yet...
How can I STOP this update.? I dont want anything changing on my SW3!
If ya have the option to update and haven't rebooted yet you should try to pull it for the rest of us. To answer your question though you should just be able to swipe it away and keep doing that if you don't want to update.

While we wait and hope somebody grabs the link/file, can i ask why you feel so strongly? Given that any time you have to unpair the watch (reset phone, switch phones, etc) you HAVE to factory reset the phone in order for it to connect again. Its not like there is any user data to preserver, so i am curious about what you don't want changed...
Got the update! Had to reset 5 times. Factory reset the watch, forget the watch in the Wear app settings, and clear data of the Wear app in Settings>Apps.

Use the PC companion program on Windows to restore it. Do it quick before Sony updates it with the new firmware!

Did you let it sync apps each time? Or interrupt that while it was syncing apps and check for an update, and then factory reset again?
Hello,
I´ve a problem with my lovely smartwatch 3 - google now cards are not shown, even after a reset of the watch. I´m not sure but can the "problem" be the latest google app update on smartphone? I´ve done a wipe for 2 times but nothing changes. Google App is running version 5.11.27.19, latest one afaik.
Greetings,
SirRobin78
The same thing has happened to me as well since around 4 days ago.
I've tried re-installing the firmware via PC Companion, but that didn't help, so I tried pairing with another phone and it still doesn't work. I'm not sure where the problem is.
Did you try to reinstall the android wear app on your phone and enable notifications? That is all I can think of.

Thanks for your suggestion, but I've already tried that as well and no joy. :crying:
The strange thing is that I get some Google cards, such as traffic time to home, etc. but I'm not getting the weather and stock info that I used to get all the time. (The cards do appear on my phone without issues.)
I´ve been having this "problem" ever since my phone updated to android 6.... I´m starting to think it might have something to do with that...

I've tested the watch on two phones, one is a Samsung Galaxy S4 (SC-04E variant) running 5.0.1 and the other is a Sony Xperia Z3 Compact (SO-02G variant) running 5.0.2. so I don't think the problem is related to Android OS version.
Hopefully, the upcoming Android Wear firmware update will fix the issue.
N.B. Both phones are running stock firmware with no root.
My watch just showed me de card with stocks and weather.... But just as a regular notification card, no swiping left...
Well, someone had to start this... I know it's not their final release and I am not complaining..!
Been running MM for a few hours.
First issue is with Amazon Prime Videos. Have noticed that downloaded movies can judder and freeze, then BT disconnects. Anyone else seen that?

I noticed there was an Android Pay update this morning. Do you know whether Android Pay works with the new MM following the Android Pay update?

I did the update earlier - Still no go.
I've been running MM for about 15 hours now with no issues. Have not tried Android pay yet, but everything else works without any discernible problems. In fact: Android wear works better now than it did before; whereas on 5.1 it would constantly disconnect, now it doesn't even have a single problem.
Android Pay is no go here also.
Samsung Pay seems to be working.
With new loyalty cards feature added... it's not officially time to ditch Android Pay. It was disappointing since the day they launched
Neither Android nor Samsung pay support my bank but my experience with MM so far has been great. It feels like a brand new phone.
i have been running it for about 30 hours and have not had any major issue. the only minor issue I see is in the messaging app. if you hit the back button to exit out of a conversation and go back to you message list, it exits out of the messaging app all together. other than that, my phone is running twice as fast as it was before. my Bluetooth issues seem to be better as well.
After updating to Marshmallow, I can't seem to have my text messages preview on my status bar; that is, I do not see any words besides the little text icon. Is anyway else having this problem? I have ENABLED "MESSAGE PREVIEW" in the settings within the app, but still no go. Maybe I used package disable pro, disabling an app that interferes with it? Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
Just tested Android and Samsung Pay. Both worked for me.
The only thing I may have done different was I shutdown my device. Entered recovery(power+home+volume up) and cleared my cache.
When I rebooted my cellular data connected to 4G instead of Edge and it detected new updates for the bloatware lol. Worth a try if you need Android Pay.
Just tried a few minutes of movie in Prime Videos and no issues here, Android Wear stayed connected too.

Yep, now that loyalty cards are in Samsung pay, I can now disable Android Pay completely. I have to say Samsung knocked it out of the park with their reverse engineering magnetic strips to allow our phones to work with the older technology.
-----------------
A non-issue, or bonus, is that my battery life has increased a good 30-40% with this update - and thats without using package disabler pro.
Is anyone using the early preview build as a daily driver? If so have you found any issues?
I am using it from the last 12 hrs. There are graphic/frame rate issues, app crashes if you switch device theme to "inverted " under display settings. If you keep it back to "Pixel ", things are smooth and fine.
Apple music isnt opening for some reason. No other issues noticed.
I've seen phone call issues. Android pay doesn't work yet. I think it will depend on how reliant you are on the device. It's a fun build though.

I think phone call issues would be a deal breaker for using it as a daily driver. Could you elaborate though on the phone call issues you experienced?

I flashed this on my 5x which is a data only Fi sim so I don't use it for phone or messaging, sorry. However, I did see other posts of people not being able to call or receive. I'll find the posts and link them here in a few. And then there were a few folks that were able to make calls, so I guess ymmv. Just be prepared to flash back if it doesn't work for you. brb

Gmail, phone calls, messaging, camera..All works perfect for me..As I said, only issue was when I changed the display theme to inverted..In normal settings, all works just fine..
All is working for me as well. It's been about 17 hours without a glitch. I paired my Huawei watch as well. Not using the Pixel launcher as I prefer Nova Launcher with the Dark Pixel icon pack. Using Gmail against MS Exchange server without issue. Mail, calendar and tasks are all operational.
LOL so other than bragging rights to use Android O, what is actually better than in 7.1.1/7.1.2?
Been using it on my pixel XL 128gb with several bugs, however, there is no crash when switching themes from inverted to pixel or vice versa, there is a Hangouts lag, amongst a few other things, I'm gonna keep daily driving On tho, and once root comes out flash substratum transparent theme ftwz, I just wish I could have my viper sound mods back
I am wanting to try the O software on my Pixel xl. Currently on Resurrection Remix ROM with unlocked bootloader. What's the proper way to flash the zip file I downloaded?
Developer option available? If so, is the unlock bootloader available or greyed out? Asking for a friend.

For me it was greyed out and my bootloader is already unlocked.
lots of bugs. calling issues (though I found that to be attributed to the Zedge app). Bluetooth is flaky. Random RAM dumps/reboots. UI froze a few times.
All above mentioned in the release notes, so was to be expected.
Had to take it off for daily use. Did so reluctantly, but I need it to make reliable phone calls, if nothing else.
Really like the direction it is heading however. Will definitely put the next build on and use it, as that is supposed to be the beta milestone.

Bluetooth is flaky when I was on DU ROM it was smooth..UI lag did notice at first but after few reboots & power off have not notice at all, in fact got snappier, phone calls good here.
The direction it's going I like it too, I'm still on it although some issues like game play stiil no go getting FC wifi calling but I activated thru phone app settings all good now
Battery life has been top notch heat stays low snappy Snappy that's one of reasons why still on build
I've been using the DP for the last 12 hours and so far the only problem I have had was some screen flashing when I was setting up Gmail. Other than that calls, messages, YouTube videos, etc. have all worked just fine.
I ran into one issue where the phone seemed to hand for 10-15 seconds but came right back after.
In my opinion, the best new features of O will require the apps to support it (adaptive icons, notification channels, ect.) so betweer 7.1.2 and 8, I can't say today there is something about Android O that I want enough to run a preview build.
does somebody runs into a Problem to not be able to copy files like pics, sounds (mp3) and movies (mp4) back to the phone? i get the phone connected, i can Access the store, but when i start to copy the files, the Connection get lost.. so im not able to copy my data back to the phone.. im not sure, if it's related to the dp1?
Gmail keeps crashing. Also when I am trying to use the app drawer it keeps going blacked out ? It's fun to play with but needs a lot of work.
