Hello,
I have a Samsung Gear 1 Watch. I've had it for about 3 weeks. The watch had died last week, and I charged it to 100%. A while after I had unplugged it, but I didn't use it straight away. Anyways, the watch will not turn on... When I plug it in to charge, the charging symbol comes up, then I plug it out and it won't turn on!
Any help? Thanks
Try hooking it up to a usb port of a computer to about 5% then you can place it in the cradle.

Hey guys,
My HTC One won't charge, I left this morning and it had 100% charge,
was on the train, used it the whole time.
I hooked it up to my powerbank since it was running low and I needed to guide a friend when I stopped.
I noticed it wasn't charging, I thought it was the cable. I hooked it up to my Kindle since it uses the same port, and it starts charging.
Luckily I have another charger that is a wall charger, I get to my friends place and I follow some instructions I found (charge for 10 minutes on the wall, afterwards while the device is off press Power and Volume UP and DOWN for 2 minutes), still no go.
The phone has completly ran out of charge, I have it trying to charge on the wall at the moment, the LED is ON red for about 20 seconds, the battery symbol is displayed as charging for 20 seconds, then it turns off and repeats the process.
When I was trying to charge the phone the whole time before this, the LED was NOT ON. Apart from this morning when I took it off charge.
What can I do?
Shameless bump.
Anyone?
Does the charge port on the phone have a burning smell at all? Mine burnt out and I had to send it in for repair.

Hi all,
My Samsung Galaxy Gear won't charge after a month of empty battery. Have tried to charge it about 22 hours now, but no success. The charging symbol is not displayed either.
A voltmeter shows that the charging cover gives power out to the gear, but it seems like the gear won't accept charging.
Using the original charger and charging cover.
Some knows what I could do about it?
EDIT: Also tried multiple chargers, and tried to plug it in the computer, also tried to reset it by holding the power button for 10+ seconds.

find the solution? I have this problem and not try to do as many things ...
problem solved, connect your Laptop and Gear to wait, wait 6 hours, others 15 minutes, so there is no specific time, I hope you serve!
Mine does that from time to time. I simply use a Q-tip to clean the contacts on the watch and the cradle, and all is good.

The actual problem is the fact that the craddle does not have direct connection to the battery, it has to go through the mainboard first. In some cases, if battery is completely empty, mainboard wont recognize the cradle and thus not charge or boot up. This happened to a friend of mine and he gave it to me to tinker with it. What finally worked was this: put the gear in its cradle (ofc cradle connected to power supply), but did NOT close the cradle cap. Instead I pressed on the gear to have connection and with a flat screwdriver i held the power button for about 10 seconds, while in the cradle and getting power. Aaaand it booted. Afterwards all charging was fine, no more problems.
The moral of the story, in my opinion, is to never let your gear discharge completely. When at less than 10%, shut it down yourself until you can charge it
Hello.
Galaxy Gear is not turning on! I clic the power button and nothing happens. When i put it to charge all i can see is the battery icon with a circular loading kind of icon. It immediately disappears when i first plug it in. That's the only thing, i'm not able to know if battery charges at all.
I have not used my GG since April because of this. My GG has never been dropped or stained with liquid. It had null rom and i was using it perfectly with my GS4. Perhaps pins are not clean? They look like they are clean and pristine but maybe something is happening? My charging cradle is bad? Or can i try to turn it on any other way without pushing the on button.
Really it has not scratches, i have never dropped my watch or hit it with anything. It seems dead as not being able to turn it on. I don't know what to do, would like to revive it.
Try plugging it into a computer and see what happens.

Thank you so much, i think it fixed. Right now i'm seeing the charging icon. Charge at 0% and battery green. I'll leave it plugged into the laptop.
I kind of tried this before, but i don't know why it didn't worked. But now it did. I'm so glad i do not have to dissemble it.
Hope it works.
For some mysterious reason, a computers usb power source magically repairs power issues.
Glad it worked!

Yep i charged it, and it's running
I've been away. With all these new galaxy gears. How does the original Gear compares to the Gear 2 and Live Gear.
What's the difference between Gear 2 and Live Gear?
So far i think original gear is more or less same in specs than these other 2... and i think Gear 2 and Live Gear are very similar, but Live Gear doesnt have a camera.
I've been living a cave, called college.
Help me

Take everything out of the Gear. Connect usb cable to PC. Connect cable to the cradle without the Gear. Then place the Gear in the cradle with the connected cable.
That it what i did, it worked at first try.
Leave them connected 2-3 minutes (i think) if i remember well, and you'll the charging icon changed. It will display 0%.
Leave it connected to PC around 10 mins more to make sure, and then immediately unplugged it and plugged it on a wall charger. It will normally charge and you'll see the % increasing.
That's exactly what i did. Hope it helps.

I'm jumping with excitement (te hubiera preguntado en Español con lo que me cuesta el inlges jajaja)
Tonight was listening to music and my battery ran to what I assume is 0%, it was at 2 while listening to music and I ran to get laundry and by the time I was half way through my music stopped suddenly, assuming it died. Went to charge it tonight and it wouldn't charge, showed the battery symbol and the charging plug. LED doesn't light up, was able to boot to recovery, and volume down to restart, got to home screen for 0.5s and it showed 0% on battery symbol, no charging symbol, and then shut off. Now it doesn't have enough juice to even tell me to charge it or boot to recovery/odin anymore.
Tried multiple chargers, stock charger, wireless chargers, nothing is getting juice into this thing. No new apps installed besides Fitbit and MyFitnessPal 2 days ago when I got my new Blaze.
EDIT: Just plugged it into PC, windows 10 said power surge, and the microUSB cable got HOT. Within 10 seconds I noticed it burning under my hands. Never had that before
Anyone have this happen before?
I had all sort of problems that my pc keep disconnected my phone and wouldn't fast charge and when it did it was so slow also the microUSB use to be so hot . Yesterday i bought a new USB cable and everything works great!!

I have a problem with the watch that I got for repair. It doesn't start up, and when connected to the charger, nothing happens. the light does not shine. I tried to look for a solution on the internet but did not find it. The charger lights up red for all, and nothing for me. When I plug it in, it goes into standby mode. I plug in my watch and nothing. No any lights
