Google announced a new update for Android Wear. This update enables "phone-free" functionality so the watch does not have to be in Bluetooth range from the phone to work, it can also function if connected to a Wi-Fi network.
So does the Moto 360 have a working Wi-Fi implementation or not ? What is the consensus ? If not, this would be a good reason to upgrade.

It has a disabled wifi chip that was filed with the FCC, assuming it'll be turned on with this update.
It does have it, Motorola said so in their own blog

Great news ! A very useful feature. Hopefully the battery life will still be acceptable with this turned on.

Weird statement on their blog considering the Moto 360 isn't capable (currently) of having the screen always on

I wouldn't call it a weird statement. It is likely the software update that will enable this functionality - I doubt it is any sort of hardware limitation.

Almost positive this is referring to the black and white feature of always on apps.

What build number and software number is the new FW? I got software 5.0.2, is that the new one?
It's only the android update side. I think we still need them to push the watch side.

Can anyone else confirm that the WiFi features are now fully functional on BOTH the App and the Watch? According to this Motorola blog.. it's going to be rolled out over the next "few" weeks: http://motorola-blog.blogspot.com/2015/04/moto-360-its-time-for-update.html?m=1
Updated to the newest Android Wear, enabled cloud sync and was in wifi range - waited some time for things to "sync" and verified the newest android wear and play services were installed on my watch. No sign of any Wifi connection to the 360 here. I don't believe it will be enabled until we get new firmware for the watch itself.
I don't know if this is already been asked but anyway, I just got my Oneplus 3 recently and I'm loving every minute of my use but there is one problem which is bugging me the whole day.... I am not able to share my mobile carriers internet via USB Tethering or Portable Hotspot to another android device or PC.
WiFi is connected but not internet access. Is this something to do with Android 6.0 Marshmallow update or how do I enable Internet access to other devices? please guide me..... Thanks!

I actually had the same issue. I can tether and have a working connection for maybe 30 seconds and then there's no longer internet access. It has worked in the past (at least in August) before the last two updates. Currently on T-Mobile.

I am using oneplus 3 on T-mobile and get the same problem. after I configured my hotspot wifi on OP3, the other device can connect to it. but it would not get the internet access. I was on the bleeding edge 3.2.7 version of Oxygen OS. after talked to the tek support of oneplus, their level 2
guy resinstalled 3.2.1 oxygen OS on my device. after that, hotspot wifi works pretty well. so that was a software issue. I am not sure the patch between 3.2.1 to 3.2.7 has a bug on hotspot or the OTA update cause the issue. but anyway, it is working now.
Can anyone else confirm this is Oxygen OS 3.2.7 bug please??? i need to make sure before I downgrade back to 3.2.1.

It won't even let me click the tethering button. I'm pissed. I depend on that a lot. Has anyone found a fix. I restored my efs thinking it would help but no luck. I am going to try to fastboot flash the modem tonight it's got to be the issue

Before you mess around with your efs partition i suggest just trying a custom rom . freedom if you like stock or any of the others if u not into stock...restoring efs is an almost impossible task
Reading this, it occurred to me I had not really tried tethering since I moved from my Nexus 5X to the OP3 a couple months ago. Just set up WiFi tethering and it seems to work perfectly.
- Using WPA2 PSK security
- Tethered device is a MacBook Air
- Carrier is T-Mobile US
- Stock ROM, unrooted, latest Oxygen OS 3.2.8
I use tethering on mine. 3.5.5 beta 7. No issues sharing with multiple devices.
I've been doing this a long time buddy and this is why it's happening to me cause when I'm on either AICP or RR 7.1 nougat it will not allow me to click the tethering button. Also I have my efs backed up to my computer and my phone. I realize there's a lot of newbs on here but I'm far from one of them. Im back on oxygen now on which I've never had any problems with any of the stock functions, ever
Hi! Has anyone managed to get this to work?
I'm having this situation for as long as I have my op3.. Can connect but no internet access.. If other phones serve as hotspot I can connect and have internet with no problems.
Any suggestions?
Stock phone, fully updated.

Everyone!!!! It's not an issue with the software from samsung... If you download the latest Google play services 11.0.33 the device will pass safetynet check, store will show certified and Android pay will work as expected!!! I did this and it worked for me on my S8+.
Just an update on the situation, I have reached out to T-Mobile via Twitter Support and they have informed me that they are aware of the issue and will fix in the next update. (Hoping soon)
Hey there! Thanks so much for reaching out about this and bringing it to our attention. We have noted this issue down and we are making adjustments for when our next update comes out from Samsung! I sincerely appreciate the feedback and it will be sent in the right direction to the right people! I have a link here: https://support.t-mobile.com/community/phones-tablets-devices/software-updates … that take you to our software updates page where you can see and watch our updates as they come to our network!

Guys is it just me or the phone is facing some wifi strength issues after latest update to one ui 3.0, android 11 ?
Sudenly phone gets disconnected from the wifi quite often regarldess of am i at home or not, and signal strength is good if i dont walk too much away from the wifi source.
Is any1 else facing similar issues with wifi after this update ?

I am having the exact same issue. I can't even leave my phone on wifi now. Every other device is fine on wifi.
Clear system cache on the boot menu.
Reset network settings.
If that doesn't get it...
Hard wipe and reload, after a major firmware update this is recommended.

Make sure it isn't a 3rd party app messing it up.
Otherwise either a bad download or the the software is buggy.
You can wait to see if Sammy pushes out a fix or take it a Samsung Experience center or send it to Samsung.
It must be quit the terror... that's why I tend not to update. In practice it's been far less trouble for me.
I'm having the same problem with my s20u snapdragon. No luck yet, I guess I'll have to factory reset the phone.

I worked out my bad battery life was due to earlier updates (Sept, Oct) causing 5GHz Wi-Fi issues and random drops. Even with the phone 1.5m from my Ruckus WAP it'd eat battery sitting there doing nothing at a crazy rate. Switching to 2.4GHz has almost completely fixed the battery drain problem for me. Almost, as in fairly close to how the phone was with the July update.
I had a lot of confidence in Samsung's updates after buying the phone in April, each update seemed to improve the phone and the battery life was great. We've owned many Galaxy phones since S3 but always rooted them with some flavour of AOSP ROMs, and this is the first Samsung phone I have not rooted so I was relying on Samsung to regularly update the ROM with improvements. Dumb ...
So I agree with @blackhawk ... no way am I updating to Android 11/One UI 3 for at least 6 months, maybe never. I've downloaded the July firmware in case I get so frustrated I wipe and reload the phone. I'm not a gamer and I don't spend massive amounts of time on the internet so "security updates" might not be that important. I'm an old IT guy and very suspicious/vigilant about what I click on.
If only there was a way to stop the System Update regularly pestering me to install what seems to be a worse update than all the others, judging by the range of comments posted so far.

I hope you mean you're 500mm from the WAP ... half a km is pretty ambitious for Wi-Fi reception!

I use a package blocker to keep AT&T updates from running.
You can also request that they (at least AT&T) don't push you the updates. I did that way for a couple of years.

Damn it ... you're right, kind of. The option is to stop it auto-updating on phone restart, which I have disabled to avoid this.

Sometimes manually entering the updater apk name in the blocker will work even though there's no registered check box for it.
If the blocker can't block carrier updates it's worthless to me...
