Ok I've searched this forum and couldn't find a similar thread.
I have had my HOX for about a week, its as it was out of the box I.e. not rooted and standard ROM.
This issue only started since yesterday.
The battery on standby never drops unless I use the Phone, which I tested more thoroughly today just to check what I was seeing was correct.
I left it on standby once fully charged at 100%, when I came back to it after 6hrs low and behold it was at 100%. I then used Temple Run for 5 minutes and it dropped to 89%. I left it for another 5hrs on standby at it stayed at 89%.
Does anyone know what might be happening? Or anyone else have the same problem.
It's not too much of an issue as I am returning the phone soon as it also has a dead pixel in the top left hand side of the screen.
Regards
Rob

Hmm..I wonder if others might have this and not realise it yet because we have all been playing with our new phones so much. I found that mine doesn't stay at 100%, but it moves slower than it should do while the screen is off. So after 6 hours it moved from 91% to 85% (1% per hour roughly) but as soon as I use it for 60 seconds, it jumped down to 81%. I think there may be an issue with power usage detection while in standby.
I doubt it would be really possible to get 100 hours of standby if I didn't wake the phone up at all as it is still doing things like checking email, facebook etc.
Hey guys just checking in if anybody has had this issue and a solution. My moto 360 charges up until 92% and then discharges after that point. It never gets to a 100%. I've tried rebooting the device, even resetting it and it's still stuck at 92%. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
I may have the same issue as of late. Cant seem to get it past 94%.....
I was having the same problem. I let the moto 360 battery run out completely until the watch turned off, then I let it charge on the dock overnight. It sits at 100% now, but the dock light never goes off.
cycling the battery a couple times might help, it did for me at least.
For me it didn't get past 98% for a good 4 hours within the first few days. So it's all about the charging cycles. Well for me anyways. Mine charges pretty quick to 100% now without much issue. This is with the 4.4w.1 update of course.
I just received mine yesterday, set it up, charged to about 97% last night and turned it off. Woke up this morning and finished the charge before leaving for work so that I was starting with a clean 100%. So far this morning I've been playing with it pretty heavily and showing it off to people at work but did notice that the percentages have been swinging back and forth a few times, like for example, after a period of heavy activity I checked the battery and it was at 94% but in checking a few minutes later it was up to 95%.
This sort of reminds me of when I flash a new AOSP rom on my phone and it takes a day or so for the battery and software to get in sync with each other. The graphs on battery history (still talking about the phone) show percentage going up a little, like the software predicts what it should be but then somehow determines that it has overcompensated and credits you a few percentage points. After a few days this effect goes away on the phone and it appears to settle.

Happened to me maybe 3 times. I dont know what it is. Sometimes restarting works. I even flipped the watch upside down and that worked. one time it stuck at 97% and after it restarted, it showed 100%

Since the new update the dock light won't turn off.

Thanks for this. I completely drained my 360 and now it goes to 100%
This is what I posted in other thread:
I can honestly say that I found the issue of the Moto 360 getting stuck while charges, since I bought it almost 3 weeks ago I hadn't been able to get a full charge in my bedroom, I live in Puerto Rico and here is basically Summer all year, average temperatures 80-85 with lower around 65 degrees on Christmas time and highest around 95-100% during July and August, plus 75-90% humidity. Well, with all that said, my bedroom is closed all day, so when I get home it's very hot, as soon as I get there I open windows and all doors but it takes a while to get it cooler. Since I got the Moto 360, I was getting home, changing clothes and putting the watch to charge, it never fully charged, I've tried everything suggested here and other forums, the only place it charged completely was on my Family Room where I have a lot of ventilation and is way colder than my bedroom.
Last Wednesday I got home and just turn the A/C on as soon as I got there, 30 minutes later I put my watch to charge and it charged fully for the first time, so immediately I realized that the only difference this time was that the room was cooler. So I decided to make some tests and I have concluded that every time I put my phone to charge in a cool room it charges completely, but as soon as I try to do it in a warm or hot room it never fully charges, it's obvious that the watch gets warm and hotter while charging so if the environment in which you are charging it it's even hotter it just stops charging, maybe to just protect itself or something.
Those of you with the same issue, just try this and see what happens. Good luck
Hello,
My Moto 360 seems to be stuck at 83 or 84% after a full night on the charger...
It's been the case for the two previous nights, at least.
I've tried restarting the watch, before putting it again on the charger -> No change, still stuck at 84%.
I've then tried resetting it, reinstalling and charging -> No change, still stuck at 84%
After reading posts where people stated that a complete discharge/recharge cycle would let them get back to 100% charge, I tried that as well.
The good news is that it took 28h for my watch's battery to deplete completely, quite significantly more than what I expected.
The bad news is that it charged up to 85%, then down to 83/84% again while seated on the charger.
In a desperate attempt to find something else to try, I put my Moto 360 on another Qi charger, and the battery level climbed up to 92%, which was encouraging... Unfortunately, it stopped there, and didn't go up to 100%, so I don't know what I can make of all this.
As for the theory about the room temperature, it's always been the same here, between 20 and 25°C (70-75°F), so not anything I would call hot.
So I got mine a few days ago and I've noticed when on the charger I get 2 different level of screen brightness. I've also had the problem of only getting 94% some times 97% but what I found that worked was that if I turn the watch off then put it on the charger it turns on and the charging display is really dim and it gets to 100%. If I just put it on the charger the display does not get as dim. The fastest and best charge is with the display off I've been playing with getting this done but haven't found a sure way to get the display off while charging.

I think there is something to the temperature idea. When I first got it, the weather was pleasant, never going above the upper 70s, so my living room was also pleasant, and it charged to 100% within an hour with no problems. Since the cursed summer heat, of 85-90 everyday, I can't get it past 98%. Which is not too bad, but I can't help waiting for another cooler day (hopefully before the fall) to see if it can get to 100% quickly again.
I do not have any problems getting my 360 to charge to 100%. What I do when charging is to set the 360 on its charger. Then with my phone I turn on Ambient Screen. When the 360 screen dims I turn off the Ambient screen. This keeps the 360 screen dark for quite a while. Works for me.

Hi Guys,
Got my moto 360 last week and was in here on the forums before it had even arrived! I've read a few threads around battery drain, and for the most part mine seems okay. It usually averages around 6-9% an hour which is on the high side but others have reported better life after a few recharge cycles.
However, I cycle to work and use the command 'start a bike ride' to start recording the journey in mytracks. I've done this several times now and and each time it burns through 15-20% battery within about 20 minutes... Surely this can't be normal!
I only have fit, mytracks, facer and the mini launcher installed.
Any ideas?
yeah that sounds a bit high, but about right.
When I use Runkeeper for 30-45mins, I usually lose 20-30% battery on the watch (doesn't make a dent on the phone though).
I got a used Pixel 2 XL recently. I usually drain it to about 40% over the course of 18-24 hours and that is when I plug it in. From 40-93% or so it is usually pretty quick in just under an hour. But from 93% to 100% although it says (15 minutes till full), it takes about another hour to get there. Is that normal? I've downloaded Accubattery and the battery itself is healthy. The supercharge is definitely working up to about 93%, then it seems to slow way down around there (which is evident by the amount of time it takes from that point on). Any thoughts as to why this happens, is it normal or sound like something is wrong with the phone/charger?
I've seen this and think it's normal. But, don't know why other than maybe a thermo cool down...

Quite normal for most phones with Speed Charging
It's normal. Pretend the battery is a bag and electricity is ping pong balls. When the bag is nearly empty, you can throw ping pong balls in there really fast and it won't hurt the bag. However, when the bag is almost full and you really have to start shoving to keep those ping pong balls in there, it puts more stress on the bag and you have to push harder to get them in there. For a battery, "shoving" electricity in there generates more heat, which risks damaging the battery, so you have to shove a little less hard so that you can keep the heat down. That's why you get the slowdown.
let me just preface the below post with the note that my watch is STILL under warranty, and I've already set up a repair after following typical troubleshooting plus what I was able to dig up here.
-------
onto the post:
so, I noticed this morning when I got out of bed..my GWA2 was at 22%....I literally did a double take.
see, I charge my watch twice a day, once before bed, once when I get out of bed, and its NEVER below 80% first thing in the morning, with a typical average of 85-90% charge.
and the average lifespan if I dont charge this way tends towards 2-3 days(WITH several things on at all times, eg wifi for example, not the watchface though).
so going from 2-3 days to effectively 8-9 hours was a HUGE 'wait, what the duck?'
is it me or is that NOT normal?
and before anyone asks, this last charge was with the watch set to power saver mode, so it lasted barely 12 hours. again cause for concern.
not sure whats different other than my moving from the iphone 6s plus to the iphone 8 with its bluetooth 5 transmitter...
anyone got a clue?
