I've tried several different apps to no avail. I had an LG G watch before this one so I'm pretty familiar with using a wearable. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling both android wear and the apps. I've tried factory resetting the watch twice. I'm stumped. I was worried it was a conflict with my previous watch because when I tried my favorite watch face app, it still detected my old watch at first. I Uninstalled and made sure to clear data and cache but nothing. And I've tried several face apps since then to make sure it wasn't an issue with that app specifically. Please help

I am having an odd issue. Every night I put my watch on the charger when I go to bed and in the morning it has an error and is frozen. Something about the system is not responding and a yes / no. ( I assume it is asking if I want to wait or restart the process). Sometimes I can press "no" and it comes back, sometimes it just comes back without having to do anything and other times I have to shut it off (hold the button in till it shuts down). About 20% of the time when I manually force it to restart, it appears to be reinstalling the apps. It acts like it had an update when I am sure there was not. Once is a while it gets stuck during the day, but I only see it about twice a month at most. It could be happening more than that, but I see it pretty rarely.
There are at least 2 different processes which have a problem, sometimes I fix one and I see the other about 10 minutes later. I think one is "android" or "system", but neither look like an app I installed.
The watch is stock. I will uninstall some of the few apps I have, but I have yet to find a way to have an app on my phone but not on my watch. Just because i want an app on my phone does not mean I want it in my watch and is it causes problems on my watch, it would be nice to be able to remove it from my watch but still have it on my phone.
Some things Google does are just silly.
Factory reset the watch. You may need to connect via adb and wipe it completely to start fresh.
You can block certain apps on the watch. This is controlled from the AW app on your phone.
If it continues to fail you should check out the LeeDroid Urbane port. It comes with an upgraded kernel which supports WiFi. I am on the 1.0 version and it works flawlessly plus up to 3 days battery life on a charge.
You will need the drivers from the Android SDK tools to communicate ur PC to the watch.

I will give the factory reset a try over the weekend, but could you explain where in the wear app you can remove or control what is installed on the watch? I can only find options to disable particular actions or notifications, nothing that removes apps without removing it from my phone. For example, I have amazon shopping and Duolingo on my phone, but I don't need the apps, or links to the apps on my phone, but there is nothing on wear or in the apps which controls what is on the phone except notifications.
I upgraded today from a LG G Watch to a LG Watch Urbane. My Urbane has been constantly disconnecting all day. I have tried everything I can think of to try to remedy this issue but to no avail. I have performed several factory resets on the watch, as well as, cleared data/cache for the Android Wear App, Google Play Services, and the Google App. The watch and all apps are up to date. I have a OnePlus One running CyanogenOS 12.1 build number LMY48B.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to remedy this issue?
I've had the ZW3 since it came out. Never gave me a lick of trouble. Recently I got a Note 8. Now many of the apps that I have on my phone (Cerberus, Photo Watchface) just never show up as apps on the watch. I've done the usual things to fix this: Factory reset the watch. Delete the apps from my phone and reinstall them. I even went so far as to do a factory reset on my Note 8 (and watch) to get a fresh start. But, for some reason these apps never show up on the watch as they did with previous phones.
I'm pulling my hair out. What do I do next?
I had the exact same problem when I got my Note 8.
I finally got the apps to install by opening the playstore on the watch & installing the apps directly to the watch.

Thanks. That worked for Photo Watch but it doesn't work for Cerberus since there's no Cerberus app in the watch app store. I know Cerberus works with Android 2.0 as it worked on my S8+. I just can't get Cerberus to recognize the watch on the Note 8.
I decided I wanted a new, different watch face. Tried downloading one app to get one and the app showed on my phone but didn't show up on the watch. Thinking that the app was the problem I tried another one, same thing. I ended up factory resetting the watch, uninstalling and reinstalling wear os, and then when trying to add my apps back, realised that NONE of them are showing up on the watch. I am getting text notifications, but no apps.
I'm not sure if I'm the only one experiencing this, but I can no longer play any videos on Netflix app, it only display black screen on any videos. I tried deleting cache and app data on settings, even tried uninstalling and reinstalling, rebooting the device until factory reset then called Netflix about it but they couldn't help at all.
Same for me... Would be great if someone finds solution because other than that everything is ok after update.
