When the charger is plugged in is there a white light on the bottom? Mine has it and it blinks when charging.

Not sure about the moto360 they are sending with the recent batches, but the stock charger performs like that (blinking white when charging and solid white when fully charged).NealP77178 wrote: ↑ When the charger is plugged in is there a white light on the bottom?

Charger is probably garbage. Try sending it back. For mine to charge correctly I had to actually take apart my charger and put the phone directly on the inductive charger without any plastic in the way.keyser-soze wrote: ↑ Thanks for all the posts on this. I decided to jump in and order. Got the silver, had it plugged in on the supplied charger and it has not turned on.
It's been 24 hours. I also tried holding down the button for ten or so seconds and nothing. Tied a quick tap of the button.. nothing...
Send back as defective?

Check that usb cable is pushed all the way into the charger, I had similar problem as yours until i realized that the charger cable wasn't connected properly. The charger is working when there is a light at the bottom.keyser-soze wrote: ↑ Thanks for all the posts on this. I decided to jump in and order.

Thanks all for the replies. Looks like I will send it back.
Tried changing cable and plug. Still nothing.
The charger does show a white light at the bottom, but it has been solid white the entire time the watch is on the charger. The watch and the charger do generate some heat, so feels like they are working, but watch will not turn on.

That's weird. Mine came fully uncharged and took about 15 mins of charging for the screen to turn on. Did you try charging it for a bit?

Anyone else having any issues with Spotify since the last update? Whenever I launch the app it automatically brings me to the "Recently Played" section and I can't navigate anywhere else. The only functionality I have, aside from seeing my recently played songs, is the ability to tap a song on said list and it'll play. That's quite literally it.
I could have sworn a bunch of "Now Playing" options were always in the notifications section of your watch when using Spotify? At the very lest, change out of recently played.
The issue is on both of my watches, so it's not an isolated issue on one watch. I'm starting to think it's a new spotify setting but I have no idea where to start. Anyone deal with this or is it just me?

Got my Wear24. So far pretty handy - installed the wear24 app (couldn't install from google store so got package from somewhere else linked here). The wear24 app really helps customize the face widgets.
I'm using the Modern face at the moment. When I swipe left on home screen it pulls out the fitness app. Can I change which app slides from the left?

For those who purchased these new/refurbs, what time of battery life are you seeing so far?

SOLVED: Of course it was the simplest of solutions - Spotify notifications were turned off on the phone, despite being "on" in the Wear OS app. I guess the latest update changed the requirements to control the music?Axelrod wrote: ↑Anyone else having any issues with Spotify since the last update?

Naturally it depends on usage as some apps consume more battery than others, but from what I've read in this forum the average battery life is between 1-3 days. Both of my watches will usually make it three days on one charge (settings: airplane mode, bluetooth on, 'always-on screen' is disabled, ... etc.).

Nope, that's how most recent WearOS works.

Would this be an upgrade from a Fitbit Blaze or is it not fair to compare the two? I usually use my blaze to control skip tracks music at the gym, to see whos calling and messages from all Apps via FitNotificiations.
I've read the last few pages and it seems one needs to fiddle around a lot to get this up and running for everyday usage.

True indeed, not fair for the Fitbit Blaze
Here is the thing, the paradigm will shift when you go WearOS, it's anything but a fitness tracker with notifications (just Google around for the review articles and demo vids).I usually use my blaze to control skip tracks music at the gym, to see whos calling and messages from all Apps via FitNotificiations.
If you ever owned an Android phone the learning curve is basically zero, you fiddle around for couple of minutes to debloat and optimize then spend forever settling on a face and the set of apps to useI've read the last few pages and it seems one needs to fiddle around a lot to get this up and running for everyday usage.

Were you able to get rid of this? May I get instructions?iceman2015 wrote: ↑ Hey I can’t seem to get rid of this SIM notification. Can you outline the steps. Both my watch and my phone has the latest OS but still get the same error message
