Hey guys I recently bought my moto 360 and love it! The only problem I'm currently experiencing is that the watch face no longer wakes when I turn my wrist to look at the watch. This is extremely annoying because I want to be able to have more functionality with just one hand. Other than that the watch works perfectly. I've even been getting 16 hrs+ battery life on average. I tried looking through the settings to see if there was an option to change the wake settings but there are none. I don't see any other forums or anyone else posting about this issue so if you've had this issue please let me know what you did to fix this. ThankS!!
That started happening to me after the most recent update. Battery life improved by a few hours but then the wrist turn stopped being reliable

Since battery life is a bit more reliable, have you tried going with Ambient Mode again? While it admittedly doesn't last as long on as off, it does result in much more 'reactive' wrist turns to tell the time more quickly and repeatedly.
mine's a bit odd. Wakes fine normally, but when I mute notifications, it doesn't wake the screen unless I really move my wrist in an obvious way.
I actually got it to work now. The problem was going on when I had the keislertech stainless steel band on it. I switch the band with the leather one and the watch started waking every time I turned my wrist. I'm guessing the steel band was interfering with the accelerometers considering they use electromagnets.
Im still having this problem. And im only using the leather band. Any fix? Yesterday was working fine when i was driving to work then i noticed at work when i twisted my wrist nothing happened.
Try more of a 'flick' with your wrist than a 'turn' with your wrist.
I too am having this issue. I just did a complete factory reset on the device, still no luck. I was worried my gryoscope may be busted, but it seems to be working at least by using a testing app I found, though I am not sure how reliable that is.
No matter how hard I flick my wrist, the screen won't come on. What's more, putting it in Ambient mode will show the black and white screen for 1 second, then the screen turns off, as if the device was face down.
Quite honestly, I think it may be a busted Gryoscope, which would suck, so I'm going to test a few more things and see.

Factory Reset with no apps installed didn't help. Called Motorola, they are shipping me a new device.
Can't think of it being anything other than a busted Gyro that always points down.
Question for the OP, at any time did you use the latest Nexus QI charger to charge your device? Doubt that has anything to do with it, but want to know just in case.
Well, the Gyro in my watch is working again, but I'm still going to follow through with the replacement, since I don't want to risk it happening again. Nothing was done to fix it, it just randomly started working Saturday night. The sensor test I mentioned earlier is showing full functionality now.
Candidly, you're probably smart to do so. Tech being what it is, often times you get a device with bugged hardware. Let us know how the replacement works out for you.

Same problem here... Seems to have a link with aftermarket QI charger. The first time I've put it on the charger pad the screen flipped upside down. Since then, no waking up from wrist movement and even on the original charger it's showing upside down.
I don't know what to do !!!
This is my second watch i had a crack on the first one taking it out of the box I don't want to wait another week to get a replacement !

Came back to normal without any reasons... oh well....
my moto 360 also doesn't wake anymore, but also not when i tap it
if i tap and hold, i feel the vibration that shows up to change the watch face and when i click the side button you see this menu before it goes back to the clock
Wow, this just started happening to me too! I was hoping to find the solution in this thread, so I hope this isn't a sign of universal hardware failure!
Started happening to me too just yesterday.
Bummer
Been a few days for me. . . not responsive on wrist turn or tap.

Got mine working again. If you haven't already tried, open android wear app on your phone, then toggle the setting "tilt to wake screen" a few times (make sure it ends up ON however). Also, on your watch, make sure theatre mode is off.
I was having the same problem. It was theater mode. Somehow it was turned on,I turned it off and now the wake function works again.
Mine stopped working too a few days ago. I toggled 'tilt to wake screen' in the wear app and it started working again.

Thanks! Toggling the "tilt to wake" setting worked for me too!
I had a little Rd trip to take so as I was driving I was charging my watch. When I arrived I noticed the screen was blank and would not turn on... I can't even reboot it by the button on the underside. I let it sit for over 24 hr (my battery would never last that long ) when I try to charge it the cradle lights but the watch doesn't but what it does fo is give a short vibration once every 3 secs. How can I get this replaced or repaired is there a direct Asus number for the watch department? I've gotten used to wearing my watch daily.. Kinda feel odd not having it on.

Same here, no solution I know of yet.
I think it has become a common problem of Zenwatch. I have already seen several post on this forum regarding the same problem. One of my friends has also faced the same problem. His watch is dead now. I suggest you to contact with service center.
This happened to me a couple of days ago. I bought a replacement charging bracket from Amazon and it's working again!
Today the phone was sitting on my nightstand when I got a phone call. The phone was on vibration, and vibrated for a while normally, then, as if something inside got loose, made a very weird noise when vibrating. Since then, the vibration strength has been extremely weak, and if I shake the phone, I can hear something rattling. Should I start thinking about getting an RMA for this phone?
Also, I bought the phone used online. Does Google provide support/RMA in that case?
sound like the vibration motor has broken, as you brought the phone used you may not be able to get fixed under warranty. But it is worth a try, juts try blagging it with the google rep to get an RMA.

Are you sure that you have the Pixel and not some cheap Chinese knock-off?

Yes lol. The phone was running flawlessly since November, and I amrunning PN and franco kernel on the phone, so most likely it's not a knock off. The vibration issue just happened today.
Sorry, I didn't know.
My first pixel device suffered from the same problem the vibration motor sounded like it was on its last legs suddenly and made a rattle sound too, had to get a replacement and my second pixel has been flawless.
Hey All
Last year i made the switch from iPhone to Samsung S8+ and i love it! Never going back
A couple days ago i updated my software and my LED view cover was working fine. I left my phone in my bag and went in for an exam at uni, came out and the LED notification's had stopped working! I've looked everywhere for an answer and i can't seem to find one on how to fix this! I didn't turn anything off or edit any settings as it was in my bag. I've never had my NFC turned on so i know that isn't the problem. As far as i can tell the LED icon app is up to date. Weird thing is, the case still locks my phone when i close the cover and when i plug it in to charge the LED battery icon still comes up. So i'm getting no notifications, no time showing up and no battery percentage. I've checked and all notification settings are the same, nothing has changed. Has anyone else had the same problem and know how i can fix this? Thanks in advance

Same for me. Lost the recepit and am stuck with it
Unfortunately LED covers aren't very robust. I also like it a lot (as it can be used to cut all unwanted notification), but unfortunately they don't last long.
Mine lost its touch sensor after a few months and the LEDs stopped after 1.5 years. The screen start/stop function was the only thing still working. Customers are often complaining about this, so this is not an isolated case.
What's worse, I think the cover is considered as an "accessory" and not as an "electronic device", so you get only a 6 month warranty and not 2 years.
Anyway, the price of the cover is quite low right now; finally I bought a new LED cover on Amazon for only €20 (which is about the price of a 3rd party dumb cover).
My Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ has no vibration anymore, should I assume it is damaged somehow? Is there any way to test it before sending it to service?
Going into settings, vibration intensity is at max and going through the call vibration modes, nothing happens.
There might be a lot of this popping up I think. I posted a thread as well

Definitely broken somehow. It was never dropped, not even 1 inch on the desk. Not close to any water.
Booted in safe mode, no vibration.
Reset to factory defaults, no vibration.
I am so disappointed.

As am I. I'm replacing mine with a new one. Have to cover shipping though. Still, it'll probably happen again.
Vibration is a key feature. I always keep it on vibrate. Did you change the vibration pattern? And what model do you have? I have SM-N975F/DS. I believe I changed it to the zig zag one shortly before this happened
SM-N975F/DS here, bought from Singapore.
I did not changed any patterns and trouble is I have no idea when it went away. Noticed this morning that is is very light when typing text, and knew something was missing. Took a while to realize "haptic" feedback was the culprit.

I edited.. i meant SM-N975F/DS as I'm sure you did too. This is a major upset indeed. And like I said, I'm getting a replacement but I suspect it'll happen again. Don't know how Samsung messed this one up.
