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.

They better also unlock the other half of the battery if they enable true always-on screen functionality

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.
i've updated my android wear app and wifi is enabled..I'm at work and have wifi here. i can walk to another office over 100 feet away and still connected where as yesterday it would say it was not connected.

The watch firmware still needs updated on the Moto360 before WiFi features will work.
wifi absolutely works without the new watch rom.

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.
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?

How do you know that? I thought it was possible that this is the build that will soon go out OTA.
Well it wasn't sent as OTA. So I'm not sure

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?
for my normal day to day tasks no issues here yet. loaded up samsung pay and no issues. didnt even try androidpay

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.
I have a pixel 3 xl with the latest December firmware, I'm on T-Mobile and I live in Florida. As I said everything is updated I have the call screen option in the phone app, I even have dark mode. Now when you go to change the voice selection in call screen, the voice part is greyed out and says "ACTIVATING CALL SCREEN REQUIRES WIFI " I connect to both wifi and hotspot and still not activating.I contacted Google like 15 times send bug report, still no help.

Not sure what's going on. Didn't know u could change the voice for call screening. Mine worked since day one.

Are you a beta tester of the phone app? I was a beta tester and I had an issue slightly different than yours. I was able to activate it but it didn't work. I opted out of the beta testing and then uninstalled and reinstalled the app and it worked. Maybe try to become a beta tester if you're not one already. Just throwing some suggestions out.
Ok I will try that thank you

A few days ago RCS randomly stopped working. I also got an update to Messages later in the evening but it was hours after it stopped working. I have rebooted, uninstalled updates and reinstalled, etc. No dice.
When I first launch Messages after updating to the latest version it has the popup to enable messages clicking enable goes straight to "ready to go" (or similar) and I can tap the link to Chat settings and see the options but after exiting the app and coming back Chat is gone completely and I only have SMS.
This was present before and after Q beta 3. Verizon, Pixel 3 XL.
Anyone else experiencing similar? Any ideas on how to fix?
May need to check with Verizon, since it's activated from a carrier level.
They may have disabled it with they're most recent backend update, not from Google.
Not sure what happened, or is happening, but even T-Mobile states the Pixel no longer supports it.

Did T-mobile ever support RCS? I have never seen the option to enable it on my phone, even though I've been hoping they would support it.

They never have, because the Pixel was not officially sold by them and had not gone through whatever hoops they have for devices to get that feature.
Prior to I/O, I was trying to figure this out but there's such a lack of knowledge that actually calling tech support got me info.
The Verge just released an article about this issue with RCS on Pixels on T-Mobile, due to the release and availability of 3A on T-Mobile.

I contacted VZW on Twitter and provided screenshots showing what happens. If I uninstall updates and install the latest version, the first time the app opens it says it's ready to go and I can tap to see Chat settings toggle them around, etc but it doesn't actually work and the Chat settings disappear from the advanced menu after closing the app.
They told me everything appears correct and I should contact Google. I explained this started without any changes to the Messages app but they just told me to talk to Google again so I gave up on that.
This weekend I rolled back to two releases ago (4.2.069 fairie) and got the same prompts about it being ready. Went to the convo with my fiancee and it was still SMS. BUT, I had Chat settings in Advanced, so it was at least different than before. I rebooted the phone and RCS worked. But if I updated to either of the newer versions, it breaks and I have to uninstall and go back to 4.2.069, reboot again and it works. So I guess I'll wait and see if they release another update and try that, but for now I'll stay on this version.
The more annoying part is that Q beta 3 doesn't allow you to change any notification settings for Messages, so I can't turn the damn vibration off every time I get a text.
Yea it's broken for me too. I got a random pop up that RCS wants to be enabled which it already was so I hit accept. I still can't get it to turn on. reboot, turn off, turn back on reboot and still can't get it to work. Pixel 3 xl on verizon here.

That's exactly what happened to me. It randomly said enable chat features after they were on for months, and quit working after that. If you want it back you can uninstall updates and go back to 4.2.069 and it will work again. Thinking it must be something in the way Messages is talking to Verizon.
This is still broken for me

Got my 6 Pro yesterday, and after trying to log into the Starbucks app, the only error I get is "A system error has occurred. Please try again later" I can even type in random characters and numbers into the username and password field too, and still results in the same error. App version 6.13.1 Tried on cellular (Verizon) and wi-fi. Uninstalled, reinstalled, etc. Opened a ticket with Starbucks. Is anyone else experiencing this issue?

So if you log into the mobile web site, go to menu - account - card management, you can pay from there or add money to your card.
It's a workaround anyway. You can also install the PWA app from the chrome menu at that point as well. That will create an icon in your launcher which will open up to the right page/screen to pay from.
Is it working on other phones with Android 12? I would bet they have an issue with that.
Same issue here. I also used the mobile web to workaround this morning.

Yeah, maybe they just haven't updated their app for Android 12. Doesn't sound like a specific Pixel 6/Pro problem, but who knows...
UK version 7.3.1 working ok on the Pro. No login issues etc seen.
Not working on my 6 Pro either. I don't think it's an issue with android 12, the app works fine on my pixel 4xl on Android 12. Maybe it has to do with tensor?
<insert comment here about supporting your local coffee shops>
all jokes aside sounds like an Android 12 issue, reach out to the developer email from the Play Store page and also I have found leaving a review on the Play Store explaining the issue sometimes gets some attention to the issue as well.

I don't thinks it's an Android 12 thing. The app works perfectly normally on my Pixel 4XL, and that's on Android 12. The app never stopped working even when that phone was first added to the Android 12 beta. It seems like a specific pixel 6 problem to me
It's not an Android 12 thing. Wells Fargo is having the same problem. My Pixel 5 can log into both apps. Apparently there's something going on with the 6.

I have the same problem, I cannot log in on my Pixel 3 and Pixel 6 Pro, Pixel 5 is working fine. I logged out and log in again on my Pixel 5 but not on the other Pixels. Pixel 5 and 6 Pro have Android 12 installed and Pixel 3 Android 11
I had the same problem all day yesterday but I was able to login this morning.
The difference between today and yesterday is that now I have Magisk rooted whereas yesterday it was just unlocked bootloader. I'm not sure if that was the cause.

I don't think the issue has to do with the bootloader because mine is locked on my 6 Pro and 4XL. App works on the 4xl but not the 6 pro. The app is working for you on pixel 6?

I was just able to log in. The Starbucks app didn't update, but there was a system update for the phone earlier. Decided to try and login for fun and it worked. Hopefully it's working for everyone now. Thanks for your assistance to all who helped. Cheers!
I had the same problem originally. I forgot about it until I started reading this thread. I just tried it now when it worked for me perfectly fine. Maybe the update that came out fixed whatever was causing that.
It's working for me now as well!
