Hi, I decided to turn on my urbane 1st gen after 3 months. I used it for an entire day just fine, but the next day it wouldn’t stay on out of the cradle.
I did a factory reset but the problem persisted. Then I did a factory reset from the bootloader. I got the first time setup twice but now the watch won’t even turn on when sitting on the cradle.
Very rarely the LG logo appears but it shuts down quickly after. The computer does not recognize the watch at all. I tested the usb cable with my phone and it worked fine.
I’m thinking about replacing the battery, but I would like to know if there are others solutions for this problem I can try first. Thanks in advance.
I had the same problem.
One day it worked okay the next it stopped.
It only booted when it was on the cradle,but as soon I took it off it would go off.
I fixed it by buying a new battery and now it works again.
I payed around € 8 for the battery
Most probably needs a battery replacement. Same was happening with mine. Replaced and works normally so far..

So out of the box, this was fine. But while downloading its update, it suddenly crapped out on me. I assumed it was battery life, so I set it up to charge. I came back a while later, and it was overheating. So I unplugged it.
I can get it to start to turn on for a brief second, but then it stops. So I plugged it back in to have it charge, and the battery charge icon keeps flashing, but I can't get it to boot up all the way. Any idea what's going on?
What was happening when you tried to charge it? Just nothing? The charging icon keeps flashing on mine, and it's getting really hot, but it's not turning on. sigh.
I'm having the same problem. I was using it and then it shut off while downloading the update. It never came back on. Google is sending a replacement. I'm so disappointed.
Mine I received and it was just plain dead.
Been it the charger hours, no sign of life at all.
They are sending me another ... disappointed as well.
wow, looks like I have same problem, just received, gear live was downloading and all over sudden stopped, I am not able to reboot anymore, reacts on nothing, disappointed since will be such a hassle living in the netherlands...
Did you buy it, or is from Google I/O? What was the current version of Android Wear, and update to which version? I am asking because I ordered mine a Gear Live and I am scared about these problems. I hope that is a problem with first devices and that I have not spent 220$ for nothing...

Gear live not charging
I'm having the same issue. I got a replacement watch but unfortunately same issue. I'm trying to give it back and I' switch for a LG R. Not the same design but I know it works
Hey XDA,
I recently won a Galaxy Tab S2 through work. Unfortunately every time I charge the device the screen becomes unresponsive to touch. The first time this happened I had charged it for 4 hours, and it was fine, so I took it off at a full charge. I then left, turned on and updating, over night upstairs on my coffee table. When I went to use it in the morning, it was unresponsive.
I took it to work, where I have a USB to Micro USB adapter and was able to factory reset it. It worked fine after that, so same thing, updated it at work, took it home, and it being nearly dead, charged it over night. First thing in the morning, Unresponsive. This happened two more times. Finally I got in touch with the people who I won the tablet from, and got it replaced.
I picked up the new tablet today around 6:30 PM. Downloaded a bunch of apps that I wanted, got it set up how I like, and put it on the charger. In the time it took to charge from 5% to 30%, the new tablet has also become completely unresponsive.
While chatting with Samsung via Live Chat (big waste of time) I plugged the original Tablet in, as it had been sitting dead on my dresser while I waited for the replacement, and for about 20 seconds it worked, before once again becoming un-responsive.
I've used the chargers that came in the box, a Galaxy S6 charger, and LG G4 charger, and an HTC M9 charger and the issue occurs with them all. I've charged them via wall sockets, power bars, and my computer and it still happens.
Having this happen once happens, I understand as I work with Cellphones and tablets for a living, but two in a row I can't help but feel like I'm doing something wrong. Can anyone suggest anything at all before I try once again to get it replaced?
Thanks in advance for your guys time and consideration.
do you have any apps auto installing from your google account?

No, I turned that all off when I booted up. But I did go and get everything I wanted downloading, plus updating all the default apps. But even after all of that is done, it still doesn't work.
actually, i was going to recommend the opposite: remove any sd cards or sim cards, reset to stock, then either don't log in to *any* account, or if it won't let you, create a *fresh*, totally blank, google account and use that. don't install anything, don't update anything, not even the os.
then try to replicate the problem.
It might be something your installing that's destroying your tablet...
Try to reset to default and just use it like that for awhile... then add one program at a time until you find the culprit. I can assure you this is a great tablet and your issues aren't indicative of the product.

Try a different usb cable. Just in case it matters.
Well the other day my watch was off and realized that the battery is dead, threw it on the cradle and when i picked it up the next morning it powers off immediately. Turns out it was 0% charged! I restarted it couple of times with no luck. After that tried a factory reset. Where im now stuck on the setup page after choosing the language because it wont continue unless the battery is charged to at least 20%.
I tried rebooting into recovery and wiped out the cash from there. But everything remains the same. Also tried factory reset through recovery and nothing has changed.
You guys have any suggestion? Ive had a bad experience with previous moto360 and i wish i dont have the same with the gwatch r
Same problem here, I've also tried everything. I'm wondering if we can just replace the battery ( I have not found a replacement yet...). I wonder though if it's a hardware issue or battery issue? I'm probably going to open mine up soon!
FIXED! I opened up the watch following instructions on Ifixit and disconnected everything and then reconnected and closed it up! WORKS GREAT!
Same here I opened it up after reading ur post and it's working again. But man... After about 6 months of using the galaxy gear s2. The battery life on the gwatch really sucks plus it's monster look comparing by that little gear s2 pie lol ?
I have an original Galaxy Gear, model V700 as always. A few months ago I had rooted it and flashed _nullrom to it. I grew bored of it and the battery life sucked worse than stock firmware so I reset the entire watch. Everything went back to normal, but maybe a month and a half ago I had offered it to a family member as a Fitbit replacement. They declined, so I just put it in a drawer and it eventually died.
Fast forward a month and a half later and I end up getting a Galaxy Note 5. I remembered I had my Gear, so I tried turning it on: No success.
I tried using the crappy 3rd party cradle I had gotten when I had bought it used: No success.
Tried at least 15 different power bricks/mUSB cords: No success.
Finally, a few days ago, I ordered the original charging cradle. Plugged it in. Still no success. I got a few half second flashes on the screen of the battery with the spinning watchhand on it, and I rarely get that, but so far no luck. I'm sure it charges as the watch and the case get warm, it just doesn't want to power up. It's not the screen as it flashed a few times. I unplugged and replugged the battery when I first took it out again. Any ideas guys? Don't wanna waste 250-300 on a newer Gear when I have a perfectly (un)usable watch right here...
This (half a second flashes) was the exact symptom I was having. Fixed by replacing the battery, see:

Gear now fully operational, charged, everything working. Not difficult if you have some repair skills and tools.
Hello!
My sister had this smart phone but when she changed it she gave it to me, immediately after I received it I made a Factory Reset from the Settings menu and it went fine, no problem with it. The problem started after I turned it on and started downloading apps and configuring it, while apps were being installed i left the phone and when I came back the phone was completely dead, i tried a lot of things, charging it with the original charger, connecting it to the computer and car with the original usb cable. Nothing worked that day :crying: it was only after I waited for 3 days that i was able to turn it on after i charged it for a few minutes and since that day the phone revives for one day and then its dead for another 3 days (if i save it in my pocket it'll be dead almost immediately) I don't know if this is a SW or HW problem, so i'm here to ask if any of you've had this problem and if there was a solution in your case.
Thanks in advance
Have you tried a factory reset?
