Having the exact same issue. Haven't had time to explore it any deeper, just changed it back to regular clock face and will go back once it gets better.
Same here looked at watch at 8pm and it said 130.

I was going to start a thread on this as well, noticed this one first.
Same problem, several times today - but only seems to affect Watch Styler screens. I switched to a stock one and no problems so far.

Same here. I am going to try copying the watchstyler faces locally to the gear's drive. maybe they will work better with a local install.
so I was able to adb into my gear, and ran the adb-shell command. when I do a directory list this is what I see. But I cannot see where the watch images are stored??

Rolled back my apk (losing the faces again - I'm going to start backing them u pnow!!) & no problems since.
I also noticed about 50% of my battery drained today, so I'm guessing that when the time is stuck, the battery is stuck doing *something* causing the drain as well. Only the 2nd time since I've had the watch that I've had this drain issue.

Ditto!!! lol
I unistalled the app from Samsung store, reinstalled it and seems to be working normal with my created faces. It was getting on my nerves too.
Mine has been hanging since the update as well. I have to either reboot my phone or disconnect then reconnect. boooo sammy!!! Get it together. On the brighter side my batter life has improved dramatically.

For me it's the Styler app (1.2?) How about everyone else?
I uninstalled the app and reinstalled but it worked for an hour or so. Back to hanging and losing time. Had to switch to stock clock faces till it gets fixed. Emailed the app developer about it.

That app is junk, I have completely given up on it (to me, it's really nothing but a gimmick anyway).
At first, I thought it was kinda cool to make a custom watch face to match my custom Note 3 home screen but then I realized the hour hand was never really accurate (as mentioned in another thread) and it froze up fairly regularly.
If that wasn't bad enough, battery life dropped quite noticeably in the watch when a custom face was in use. That was enough for me to learn my lesson.
Yep same thing here. Hangs up and won't advance the time. Very frustrating. I did not know about the battery drain though. I just got the watch and went to using a custom face right away. Will have to see how battery life is tomorrow without the app running.

Using null rom or stock android doesn't work correctly with my note 4. Here are my issues.
1. Text notification doesn't clear on my watch even though I've already viewed them on my phone.
2. I set up a pattern lock via gear manger setting and it no longer auto unlock when the watch is near my phone.
So far those are the 2 I've noticed.
I'm on stock Android (NA6) with the Note 4 and haven't had problems clearing text notifications.
The problem I do have, however, is that Gear Manager hides the third-party apps I've sideloaded to the Gear as soon as it connects.

Thanks for the info. So you dont have any of the above issues I mentioned? But I think if I go stock I might as well go tizen. I'm gonna miss the 60 seconds recording on Null rom though. I use it a lot. How come you haven't ugpraded to Tizen if you're running stock anyway?

No, I haven't had any problem with removing the notifications, though I can't speak to the pattern lock issue because I've never used the lock feature. After way too much time spent trying to figure out what was going on with my issue, I finally had enough of the time sink and upgraded to Tizen just an hour or so ago. I had been holding out on that move because I'd been undecided about whether to get the Nexus 6 or the Note 4, and wanted to keep the option of (somehow) using it with the Nexus. Now that I've chosen the Note 4 and sold my soul to Samsung for another year, though, there was really no reason not to upgrade, save for losing the ability to sideload Android apps.

Haven't done anything yet. But it seemed to have fixed the notification thing. Sometimes it just takes a while but when I view the text on my phone, it eventually goes away now on my watch. I did upgrade to Null 23 since I was only on null 21. But I can't get myself to upgrade to Tizen. I want to keep my 60 seconds recording. I still have the unlock via gear issue and have just disabled locking on it completely.

Maybe try this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-gear/general/runtastic-finally-tizen-t2863431
So I just bought a Gear 2 and it also has issue #2 where the phone won't unlock if the Gear 2 is near it. This seems to be an issue with the note 4. Hopefully it can be fixed via software.
UPDATE: I uninstalled GM and reinstalled it again but downloaded from Samung app store. Also once connected, I had GM reset the gear instead of restoring. It also did do 2 small software updates during connection setup. I'm not sure which made the difference but the gear 2 is unlocking the phone ok now.
Just for the heck of it, I then unpaired the gear 2 and repaired my gear 1. It didn't ask for me to restore or reset and it just did the 6 digit confirmation code. It did the 4 small updates during connection setup. After connection, I checked and auto lock was still set in GM setting for the Gear 1 as well as all other settings being unchaged. And now it works! WTH. I tried moving the gear away and it locked. Moved closed and it auto unlocked. Also works if I power down the gear and power it back up. I've tried uninstalling GM so many times before and let it reset my gear1 but that didn't do anything. Maybe the gear 2 triggered something in the phone for it to work right? I have no idea. But I'm glad it's working now. Now I just need to decide which I want to keep. But I'm probably leaning towards the gear 1 with null 2.
UPDATE 2: Restarted the phone and issue came back.
UPDATE 3: So if I walk away and come back near the phone it works 1 time. I will try it with the gear 2 and see if I have the same issue. I didn't restart the phone when I had it connected to the gear 2.
This thread's kind of surprising to me. I had a ton of problems with my Note 3 and Gear that all went away with the Note 4. Everything just works - auto unlock, BT connect/re-connect, Gear Manager. When I was having problems with the Note 3 I installed the Canadian ROM (vs. U.S.) on my Gear and just stayed with it even though it didn't help anything. Its method of rebooting or recovering is easier to use than the U.S. version. Maybe there's something in the Gear's U.S. ROM causing it to misbehave? The only downside between Note 3/4 is that a bunch of apps I previously had installed don't show up any more either in my "purchased" apps or in the Gear App Store. Why Samsung keeps playing with what apps are available based on host device is beyond me.

Hey Barry whats up. Thanks for the input. That's interesting as I'm the complete opposite with the gear and note 3. But I am using null rom so I'm not sure if that makes a difference from the US version. Did you go back to US rom and which version?

Nope. I'm on the Canadian ROM. Can you look in the Gear App Store with a U.S. ROM'd Gear and see if Direct or PayPal are in there? I don't think the Gear's region restricts app but it would be nice to know for sure.

Battery Life drastically improved with this new update. Like the whole "saving the cards" add on.
Any new stock watch faces?
Is root working after the update?
No new stock faces.
With this new update, my gear will charge to 100% and stay there. Before the update gear would get to 99% over night charging.
About root, I'm still trying to get drivers for my gear live. My computer sees my watch on adb devices, adb fastboot and gear disappears.

I checked my settings -> about -> system updates and it is not there. Thanks for sharing!
Just reset mine and after the sync and it was on the get started screen i went to the update setting before swiping any cards and it is now downloading. I hope that helps.
Battery life ..... on since 6am now 8 hours later 75%
This is great update
Mine finally came through today. I like that cards are transparent on the clock screen and that they stay the same size (some watch faces hidden cards where large)
Haven't looked at card saving yet
Update Time?
I have between looking at the recover "downloading" screen for an hour? How long before i should get worried? Do i reset or unplug?

Aftet the update my watch face keeps going black even though its set to always on restarted resynced. Hmm I was getting through the day at about 30% usage before so im not worried about the always on drain the battery. Anyway is anyome else having this issue or is it just me, maybe an app conflict with the new update.
4.4W.2 update
I was getting black screens before this update, mainly the Chrono Watch face (best watchface i have found so far) crashed when I rebooted the watch.
Screen completely black but the watch still responds to touch.
This update seems to have fixed that.
I do see a new music option on the watch which is cool.
I resync'd my apps after the update. Rebooted a few times also.
I was happy with battery life before. Improved battery life would be great, hoping someday to get 3 to 4 days on one charge.
New compass and navigate to nearby gas station
Got the update today. I'd advise applying it when on the charger. My Gear Live had 50% battery when I started the update and after it rebooted battery was at just 10%

Similar expereince when I did mine a few days ago lol.
I had problems with the update and now I'm getting maybe 3 hours of battery life. Also, it won't install any apps. Resetting the watch or rebooting the phone doesn't work.
So i did the update over the last few days and now everytime my watch "wakes up" it always displays "OK google" when lighting up and it usually covers up any detail in the watch and once it dissapears theres only a few seconds left to read the watch before it goes dark again
is there is any way to stop the "OK google" from showing up on the screen?
its the one thing that really irritates me about the update and that it wasn't an issue with the earlier firmwares

LOL looks like to make the "Ok google" stop appearing on your watch you need to activate the voie command feature about 2 or three times before it finally goes away.

Just manually flashed the Android Wear 2.0 on my LG watch urbane at first it was slow and laggy and but then a day or two later it straightened itself out and it was like butter.
And the purpose of this topic is?
Mine is still really laggy after about 4 days.
Mind is unusabley lethargic.
Same here. A great smartwatch has become effectively useless since 2.0. Can't even answer calls on it anymore for cryin' out loud!
My watch was incredibly laggy and had terrible battery drain too. Today I did nothing different besides turning WiFi off and the lag is gone and the battery is similar to 1.5. (Which sucks since I used WiFi quite a bit, but at least the watch is usable.) I'm going to reenable WiFi tomorrow to see if the lag returns.

The UI is fluid most of the time, notifications come without delay but functionality seems to be down. I think Google has messed up Android Wear. Needs another major update imo.

Weird that it's seemingly such a randomly different experience for each user. My UI is laggy as hell, and the notifications only seem to show when they want to! It does vibrate when receiving them but either shows nothing (leaving me to swipe up to see what it is) or auto-pops up and takes up my whole watch face! Yet if I receive a phonecall, I'm lucky if my watch acknowledges it at all! Maybe, in 2 out of 10 tries?!
... Which leads me into completely agreeing with the downturn in functionality. On the couple of occasions my watch had picked up that I'm receiving a call, it only gives me the option to hang up! (Making my paid for Wear Speaker app effectively useless.) No way to answer from the watch at all. Same goes for notifications. Email for example, I can delete, archive or reply (all on the watch only) but I can't just tap to open it on my phone like I used to be able to! YouTube video subscription notifications are just that... Notifications! As the only option is to add to the watch later list. No option to open on the phone. Nothing!
Basically, it's great that they've added functionality that enables you to use the watch without the phone... But not at the expense of cutting out the phone completely! It still needs the phone to function fully, and is STILL only a companion product to go with a phone! I seriously don't understand how they've managed to screw this up so badly even after all the delays??! ?
It is weird because enough people report your experience for it to be just in your head. My was slow for a few hours but then sped up and is nice and at least as fluid as 1.5.
I did reboot and that didn't help. Factory reset made a huge difference.
Any ideas how to downgrade? My watch is practically usless... I hate the new update they've removed every single thing that made this watch remotely usefull
Yeah this update sucks on the urbane, everything takes much longer and isn't smooth... Good timing for me since I'm getting back into shape I bought a Fitbit charge 2 and will sell the urbane if it's worth anything.. I would like the Movado Wear watch but I'll make sure it's also not underpowered before purchase..
Thanks Google!

In the settings on the watch there is an option for something like 'apps on phone' where you can select which apps you want to be installed from the phone instead of automatically like in 1.5. It may be an option in the Play store on the watch. I don't have 2.0 yet, waiting for my Urbane 2nd Edition update, but I've read about it.

Yeah, that option is missing now. Currently swiping down, tapping the sun symbol and then the watch-sysbol in the middle below seems to be the only way.
But at least after I did a factory reset of the watch yesterday and paired it again with my LG V10 the watch runs much smoother than before. Truth be told I have not installed all applications yet I was running on the Urbane before (like Watchmaker for example) but I will install one after another and check if the lags I had before reappear.
Mine had AW 1.1 out of the box. Upgraded to 2.0 and it was unusably laggy. Even tilt-to-wake was very delayed. "OK Google" would take over 10 seconds for assistant to come up.
My watch too has become barely useable. Google assistant can sometimes take upwards of 20 seconds to load. And there is a huge delay on my notifications, I don't even receive notifications for calls. Android wear 2.0 has definitely ruined my watch, which is sad because I love using assistant on my phone to control my Philips hue lights.
Did anyone contact LG or Google about this problem? Android Wear 2 made my device useless after just 1,5 years. That's unacceptable!
I keep trying different faces, but some seem to work correctly at first but then get stuck & stop updating. I had one running that I thought worked great & then today it said it was cloudy/rainy & 56° out even well after it got warm & sunny.

Good question!
I have the same problem too.
Also when I click on the weather on the watch face it
displays different results than what the weather app
displays on the watch face itself.
I must have tried 25 different weather apps for android wear
and so far not one of them were any where near accurate
enough for me to actually use any of them.
Good luck, have a great day!

Exactly. I'm giving up on watch face weather for now

I've been using this watchface since I got the watch in november:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.byss.instaweather.watchface
I'm in Finland and I've been happy with the weather data, it's not 100% accurate, but accurate enough for daily use.
Most watch faces I've tried have been really weak in showing accurate weather data from smaller countries.
yearly subscription?? Eer, no thanks.
I would gladly pay a one time fee for a good app, but this is ridiculous.
~John
I have been trying a face I made with WeatherTime & so far today it has worked fine.
That means absolutely nothing however, as some of the other faces seemed to work in the beginning but then simply stop updating no matter what the settings are.
~John
My guess is that it's related to connectivity issues between the watch and phone. My watch and phone constantly disconnect from each other. At 4pm today for example, it was still showing the temp for 9am. Jeeze!
weather time seems to work pretty well for me (way better than anything else I've tried) So far, it always seems to me within a few degrees of what my phone is reading & is at least useable.
~John
I know this thread is a bit old, but I use a WatchMaker face. While WatchMaker (search on the Play Store) requires you to purchase a license to put watch faces on your watch, it is totally worth it. You get to make your own faces and use other peoples faces. Look up "facerepo" for a site that has tons of watch faces. To get accurate weather, you have to go into the app's settings on your phone, and configure the weather settings to update every half hour.
I'm sticking with weather time. It works perfectly 99% of the time.
It got stuck once on the temp, but in the phone app you can click force weather refresh & then it's fine again. I do have my phone (galaxy S8 Plus) set to update every 30 minutes.
