Hey guys,
I got the lollipop update for the Moto 360 today, but now its stuck on the boot loop ( the red, yellow, green, blue spinning orbs)
Any ideas on how to fix it?
Thanks
--------------------------------------
Update
----------
I have sent my moto 360 for a replacement and have created a bug report here https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=83581
If you guys go there and star it, google is more likely to notice it. Hope everyone gets their watch fixed. Good luck.
It took a while for me as well but finally it booted up fine.

Me too. I'm waiting for it to run out of battery and die ?
I also have such problem. I've rebooted, rebooted, rebooted, all the same. I think only one way has left- flash firmware.

Probably, it is a bug in the update... I sent back the watch to Motorola, they are going to replace it
For me this isn't good idea, cause shipping will take a lot of time (Russia). I Iam inclined to reflash it by myself. I just wonder if it will help or not.

Oh... It probably would help. It looks like a software issue. But how would you flash it? There are no usb ports and the bluetooth doesn't work.

How did you get them to replace it? Mine's gone back for repair.

Nothing..I just called them up and explained the problem..they told me to restart the device when that didn't work..they said they will send a replacement after my watch reaches them...
On their website it says I'll get a "like new" replacement so the replacement could be a refurbished one. So, it's probably better if you get your own watch back after repairs.
2 days ago I woke up to this seemingly broken screen (pic attached), it was responsive but the colors and line are all over the place!...
I kept the phone untouched until I find out what is going on and get a screen replacement, today I just opened the phone and everything is back to normal like it never happened!, what is this and is there a risk of it happening again?

I have the same problem and it's insane.
Do you do a reset or something?. I'm think its a sw related issue with gpu processing but im just guessing.
Thx!

It feels like a refresh rate problem, yet it doesn't feel like a software made one...
I don't know, it seems hardware

Try and turn on "Force GPU Rendering". It's in the development settings.

I was regularly using my G4, it was on cyanogenmod 13 nightlys for a good while now and i updated it every week or so. (haven't updated it in at least 10 days this time but it shouldn't be an issue) Suddenly the device turned itself off and went into a bootloop. I found a couple of weird things with this bootloop.
1. it wont boot into the device ever. it just shows the LG logo for a few seconds, goes black for a second then repeat.
2. I cant enter recovery mode, i used the button combination and go to the "factory reset" screen, selected 'yes' twice and i should have been sent to TWRP, which i have installed. But instead it just took a while on the yes/no screen and then blacked out, and rebooted back into the loop.
3. Sometimes it goes a bit further in the loop, and gets a little into the boot animation i have. I found that letting it run a longer time gets me a higher chance to see my little boot animation.
ive heard there was a hardware issue with LG G4's that were bought back in September of 2015 but i bought mine in June last year so i don't think that's the issue.
i didn't backup my phone for a long time so i'd love to get my files back! (otherwise I'm getting a new phone in a couple of days but i still need it until then)
Any and all help will be greatly appreciated! thanks!
What is your phone's S/N?

I have the exact same problem, my phone died like this yesterday. The colder the phone is the longer it runs without rebooting so that might be a hint for you, although i have never seen it boot up completely. Maybe you can put it in the freezer or something like that. I was lucky because i just switched to cm13 and make backups of all my data the day before.

no idea. I know it hits some within a specific range but i did check the back of the phone where the battery is and it says there H815 0506 twice H815 0430 once and H815 0508 and H815 0501 both once. Does this mean anything? how can i check the S/N if its in a loop?

heard about that, i didnt try freezer because that sounds kinda stupid and i dont feel safe doing it but i put it in front of my A/C and it cooled down but i dont think it made any special change.

I saw my S/N in the box the phone came in, right above the IMEI (mine is 602).

I'm sorry but it seems you both have THE bootloop problem not a weird bootloop.. It does affect many more than "bought in September" devices. Actually more of the June devices..
Sorry.

just checked the box, mines 506.
Damn that sucks! Any way confirmed to fix this issue? I dont think warranty will fix a boot loader unlocked phone.

People in the US and some European countries (ie Germany) didn't have a problem getting it fixed under warranty despite unlocked bootloader, root or even custom roms (because it's a known hardware issue unrelated to software).
Others did.
Try, you got nothing lose..
As for a fix, there is a process that involves disabling CPU cores, has worked for some. Check http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=67149552

I bought the phone as an international phone from a phone store. I dont have an LG center here and if i try to ask the store to fix it under warrently i'll probably get turned down because the bootloader is unlocked (you can clearly see that in the LG screen)
I will try talking to them but with ~20 days of warranty remaining i doubt my success chances are high
I brought mine from a phone store unlocked too (Carphone Warehouse in the UK) and it also had an unlocked bootloader running Cm13.
When it started suffering the bootloop problem they repaired it no questions asked. Worth a go.
Mine done that but wouldn't turn on after I took battery out I didn't try asking on here but no luck so I took it to insurance and I ended up with the g5 as they had no g4 repaired and ready to come back to me in 24 hours lol. Carphone warehouse ? big thanks to them now to wait for g5 to get some good stuff ... ?

It is a known issue they'll rma it for this reason. On a side note I had that issue for about 12-24 hours and went away on it's own, no restart or factory reset was required for me. Really wish I knew what or why the cause but maybe it will go away, like mine did. :fingers-crossed:
Thanks I hope so too. Really liking the phone but for this money...
agreed I almost gave up, my first 2 were too blue and the 3rd fine except started that flash, but ultimately went away. Loving this phone!

Mine just started this week flashing. Running 8.1 since last week. Does your new replacement suffer from the same issue as well?
Thanks

Mine started today but it has been getting better as the day goes on. I'm curious if its an issue with charging. Prior to a few days ago I had been only using the chargers with that I've received specifically for the phone, but this week--since I'm traveling for the holidays--I've only been using my pixelbook charger, so maybe something isn't properly shielded and the flash is caused by a built up charge? Reason I think that is that it has been less and less noticeable as the day goes on..

My flashing went away the next day. I did do a factory reset just because I only had it a few days and no issues since. Although Google RMA’d my phone I sent the replacement back without accepting shipment as mine has been running like a champ since.

Got my replacement a week ago, 0 flashes so far (finger crossed). I tend now to think it's a hardware issue. Also blue tint is slightly better on new device...
I just got my Pixel 2 XL delivered to me yesterday. Set it all up, didn't get the flashing screen issue at first but now it's doing it. Tried to chat with Pixel support from my phone, they don't have a resolution for it yet.... Hopefully it's a software issue?
Mine started doing this about 3-4 days ago. I noticed that it starts to do it when night mode is on. If I go the RMA route, this will be my 3rd replacement and tbh I'm not looking forward to doing this.
Mine did it once with always on display on, I don't usually use that so I turned it off and it hasn't happened since.
I just received a replacement device yesterday due to a faulty speaker. No issues with the last device, but this device is now exhibiting the screen flash when locking.

Exact thing with me. I received a brand new device that I got because my previous one had a bad speaker (speaker phone distorted sound). This new one has the screen flashing problem. My original did not. Poor QC ... especially for $850.
Mine has been doing it for a couple of days, and it kept getting worse. On chat with Google Support now. Sounds like it's going to be RMA'd.
Someone please give me hope.
I've got this phone yesterday and it keeps turning itself off when locked. If my phone doesn't receive a "wake up signal" like a notificationn or isn't in charge it will turn off in around 5 minutes (measured with a clock). This is not a sudden shutdown or crash ,you can see the logo on the screen.
Neither safe boot nor factory reset solved the problem.
Returning it and buying it again at the same price is impossible now so i'm hoping for a fix before the return window ends.
Can Xiaomi fix my (and probably others) phone in less than a month or is better to throw the towel now and go for a full refund?
Oh.. Had a few unexpected shutdowns Yesterday.. and one today.. but it's Not reproduceable.
Have you tried to enable AOD? Maybe this is a workaround....
Yeah, even with AOD permanently on after around 5min the phone shuts off. I've also tried running the clock app in chrono mode in the background with no results.
Rightnow i'm trying to reinstall miui 12.0.2 cause i don't understand if this is an hardware problem or a software one.
Also we don't know how widespread this problem is, a lot of people are happy with their F£ but it's impossible not to notice a problem this serious
Just ordered the phone, will come in a week, what version of MIUI does it come with, Global stable or Global beta?
Bro try unlocking bootloader and installing xiaomi.eu

I have the same problem. Got it yesterday, went to sleep and in the morning the phone was rebooted/crashed.
Had to put in Sim pin and Device pin again just like after a reboot.
I hope this gets fixed soon.
Same problem here, I have the f3 for ten days with MIUI Global 12.0.4 (Italian Country), several reboots (four) almost always at night under charge, but once even during the day in front of my eyes, another time I have found the smartphone completely turned off, at this point I don't know whether to ask for a refund because I don't know if it's a SW or HW problem
There are several users who are reporting this problem
Hmmm i think the update from yesterday solved the problem for me.
I didn´t have a reboot this night.
Edit: Had another reboot this night, so update didn´t help.
UPDATE: i've updated the phone to 12.0.4 and the problem still remains. i will ship it back to Amazon in a few days. Also the problem got even worse ( before update): it's the second time i've found the phone with 0 charge after one of those shutdowns. The "when isn't in charge" part of the OP is also wrong, in the last days the phone switched of even while charging
Had a reboot this night on 12.0.4
Before putting it definetly inside the box after factory reset i've tried to start the phone again and then lock the screen at the welcome page. After 10 mins i've found it turned off
Same problem for me. I wonder, does it also happen on xiaomi.eu rom? Hope its not a hardware fault.

Pretty sure it´s just a software Problem. During my search for a solution i found out, the Poco x3 had the same problem.

That can't be, if it was a software problem all of us on MIUI will have the same experience. I think mine is a hardware problem cause is worse than anyone here. Also a lot of people do not have any problems so maybe is a QC issue on some component like the power management chip
I dont have any shutdowns or reboots at night, but i use an old charger with 800mA.
My Shutdowns come If i disable AOD.
