Hi all,
I remember that the LG Watch R gives a short vibration with Google maps if you have to turn left or right or whatever.
Today I started a trip but I saw only the arrows on the watch without vibration. I dont know something about an option to switch on.
Why is there no vibration anymore?
I think it's because of you didn't slide screen to right side on watch when you launched maps on phone and didn't open maps in full screen. Try this

The store says to run it from phone or device. I ran it from phone and it says its activated and to just swipe from top left. i've tried that over and over with restarting my gear live and my note 3 and still doesn't work any tips?
Working flawless for me on Gear Live and Note 3 stock uprooted.
Swipe slowly on top left of screen to the right. Do it when the clock face is on and not google now screen.

I had to run the app on the watch manually for the first time (by activating Voice Input and scrolling down to "Start..." and choosing the app there).
After that swiping on the upper left does work well. Maybe that's it for you as well...

i had to do this as well
well for some reason it didnt like the watch face (one of the defaults) i changed it to another and it fixed the issue.
sensitivity / faster light on
Since I used the Mini Launcher I have got the impression that the sensitivity / reaction of the watch has changed.
Now it needs only little movement of the wrist half a turn and the light goes on.
It lights up much too often now.
Can the launcher be the reason or must it be something else?
No change after two resets.
Any ideas what to do?
Hi all, just got myself a LG GWatch R, and loving it so far...
Just a couple of questions...
1: The screen keeps lighting up when i move my arm?, this is causing extra battery drain and i dont want this to happen, ive already set the screen to always on in ambient mode so wht does it keep turning on to full?
2: It keeps saying google now is not available even though its connected? Annoying.
3: The same cards keep appearing even though i have swiped them away. Why?
hi,
try a reset of lhe lg r
Have you run all updates? Yes a reset may be in order.

Updated yes, reset why? its a feature of the watch that needs to have a disable option. Its supposed to do it, but i dont want it to.

1) You can no do that. Just mute notification by swipe down watch status bar, it mute notification and disable the lightin up movement.
2) It need BT connected watch/phone AND valid internet connection on phone.
3) card appear when phone send notification. If card appearing after swipe, it is your phone wich notify again.
1: STUPID, I dont want to turn my buzzer of to stop the screen lighting up.
2: All is connected but the watch does it constantly.
3: Cards dont appear on phone just constantly on the watch?

which particular card is annoying you? i do find the light up mechanism is annoying as if i turn my wrist to do something and the screen just light up.
i wish google or LG is able to come up a new features to stop the auto light up function by movement. on pebble, you can disable such function...why google cannot..
Well I tried emailing them about it. But after sitting there for half an hour entering crap just to send an email I gave up.
I'm on holiday this week. And I keep getting a card saying holiday all day. But this keeps popping up about 20 times a day. Doesn't appear on the phone just the watch.
According to the screenshots in this article covering the upcoming Android Wear 5.0 Lollipop, we will be able to disable the wake gesture!
have a close look at the screenshots of the AW phone app, there is an option "Tilt to wake screen"
the holiday is mark in your google calendar? if you didnt connect the phone with watch..did it happen?
No its coming from the phone. But I don't understand why it appears all the time instead of once
I would also like it too not light up every time I move! I have turned off all gestures and tilt to wake but it still lights up. Just want to tell the time not let everyone know im wearing a smartwatch.
I have an LG G Watch R.
immediately after this update about 1.5 weeks ago that I installed my watch no longer functions as it functioned before.
I no longer get call notifications on the watch. previously when a call came in the watch would start vibrating the caller image would appear and I could answer or ignore from the watch.
this no longer occurs (HUGE functionality loss for me)
also "always on" no longer works. it always turns off VERY rapidly after a few short seconds and you can only turn it on again by pressing the button. no "ambient" mode any more.
and of course since ambient is off (I assume) twist to full on does not work anymore
touch will not wake it up twist will not wake it up ONLY pressing the button.
suggestions? these are simply massively functionality losses to me I flat out would not have bought it if it functioned this way when I got it. what's the point?
I am hoping this is something I can fix. yes I checked android wear no joy. I uncheck and recheck always on and the watch comes on for a second and then goes off again. still have to press the button to make it live again.
Cinema mode activated?
Sent from my SGP611 using XDA Free mobile app
What is that? I do not see anything called cinema mode anywhere?
On active screen swipe down from the top and then wipe left. You will see Cinema mode and Sunlight boost.

Hi everybody, I've been having a hideous issue with my Note 8 ever since it updated to Android Oreo. So, before when I turned my phone on, either by pressing the home button on the screen or by using the button on the side, I could see the notifications and I could view the whole preview by sliding them down, touch them and open them, erase them or leave them where they where. Now as soon as I use either one of this buttons, the phone automatically selects one of those notifications and pops up the screen with the sign password and iris recognize without giving me the chance of seeing the notifications. If I go back without using the password, the notification it wanted to open gets deleted. It basically takes away the possibility to check the notifications. The problem gets worse when I'm at home because I have the smartlock enabled, so (when and if it works) it opens up any notifications by itself. Sometimes, it's actually rare but it happened a few times already, it does everything on its own. It's on my bed far from me, I'm not even looking at it, a notification arrives, it turns on by itself and asks for my password to open the notification. What do you think? I hope someone has an answer and I hope i didn't create a new thread on an issue already discussed about, but I couldn't find anything similar
Hi, recently Google integrated Google auto into Google maps and I went through the settings and I remember activating that damn setting. Now every time I start navigation or if the phone connects to car bt, DND switches on automatically. It's driving me insane. And since then I have been trying to find that setting again but I just can't! I tried to reinstall maps, Google app, Google auto.
Please help!
I noticed a few bizarre gremlins in this phone that I've never seen in any other device
Sometimes the YouTube video starts playing when I've already paused it etc and walked away from the phone
Sometimes it unlocks itself or the screen lock timeout doesn't lock the screen after 60 seconds like it's set to and it stays lit up
Yesterday I had fingerprint sensor unlock and today and let it charge overnight, today fingerprint unlock has unset itself and only the pin or face unlock is working
Very bizarre behavior I've never had from a phone before
