No google now cards - Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have my lg g watch updated to the latest version, everything like "remind me to" or... works (other then some stuff which doesn't work in my country, even the google now doesn't itself. I used market unlocker)
But I get nothing when I scroll down. No google cards. I have weather and stocks on my phone (stocks is just for test) and my watch shows nothing.
EDIT: I made the a similar on on the lg g watch forums before I thought it's better to just make one her but sounds like the other one has replies now. so I can't delete this myself :|

[Q] Google now - not showing cards..

Hello,
So I've been using Google now for about a month now, and in that time I thought the service should have learn my patterns etc...
However, it hasn't, I have all the privacy intruding options on, e.g. GPS location services etc, and I have my home and work set up correctly, though I haven't had any cards on when I should leave for work, in-fact I haven't had any cards apart from weather at-all. They're all enabled, but it just doesn't show anything?
I've set my home and work locations, and according to Google latitude's history it logged me in at work (when I get there) and at home as-well.
I've looked up some "set-up" tutorials on Google now, and I've done it all apart from this screen:

I dont seem to have that screen at all, I have the option but when I go to the option I get this:
(sorry for the blur, I'm very privacy conscious) http://puu.sh/2dPqi
Any ideas?
Thanks.
Could be related, but Google Now seems to be down for me (noticed it was down around 6p and its 9p my time). All I get is local events and my next appointment. Up till this afternoon it has always worked for me (been using jb since it released).
EDIT: It seems that gNow is partially down at the moment others are reporting issues as well http://forums.androidcentral.com/an...301-weather-card-google-now-went-missing.html

[Q] remove my account from beta google play services?

I went to Google I/O 2014, and got the LG G watch. I also got an email with links to enable my google account as a tester of a few apps (google play services, and a couple of others) (a requirement to get the watch working immediately.)
Here's part of the emailSpeaking of 'what's next', you may recall that we've secured a watch powered by Android Wear for you to take home. You can choose either the LG G Watch or the Samsung Gear Live. To get the most out of your Android Wear device during Google I/O, follow these instructions to get the latest Google Play services and supporting apps for your devices running Android 4.3 or higher. Starting tomorrow, you'll be able to download the SDK and begin exploring here. Please pick up your watch from the Device Pickup stand on the 1st floor between 7am-5pm tomorrow, June 26.
Everything worked fine, but now I've seen Google Play Services crash on my phone several times over the last week, so I want to get off the beta/test track.
Problem is, the link in the email now just points to regular Wear documentation. Anyone know how I can see the list of apps I'm beta on, and how to change it?
I've googled everything I can think of.
Thanks in advance.

Android Wear & iOS - Apps?

Hi Guys,
I have LG G Watch and iPhone 6. I was using my watch with my Android phone (LG G2) and it worked perfectly. I downloaded lots of apps, even paid ones, watchfaces etc.
However, for some reasons, I now have to use an iOS device. I read quite a lot of threads on this topic, but still it is not clear for me. Can I add apps to the watch (sideload) while connected to an iPhone? I mean mostly (at least) apps which do not need an androdi device - calculators, calendars, spending trackers, etc? Games? Will any of these below work:
1. I read how to connect another phone without factory reset - by deleting a specific app's data. Will this work and keep my apps, allowing me to connect to my iPhone?
2. Sideloading the apps somehow with APK files, through USB on my LG G Watch?
3. Keeping the watch synched with the Android phone just to keep the apps on it, but at the same time connected to the iPhone with some third party app?
Will be grateful for any ideas you may have.
Thanks!

Hi ,
Well while most of the questions you have asked are already answered i recommend you refer to the below thread which will answer point 2 & 3 specifically and the 1st point to an extent (indirectly)
[URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/android-wear/development/android-wear-ios-connectivity-t3052524"[/URL]
This will definitely help you
Thanks neivvv. I found this topic, but there is a bit too much to go through It was started before the Wear for iOS was introduced in the AppStore and I am not sure where the discussion starts for the current conditions. Do not take me wrong, I am not lazy at all, I am just interested in lots of things and click on different links on the replies, browse other pages and it may take ages. However, it seems very interesting and I will go through it. Thanks

I read the blog post on XDA about getting rid of Google on an android phone.
http://www.xda-developers.com/setting-up-android-marshmallow-without-google/#comment
It started with install TWRP. I know what it is, but just had a problem with it on a Nexus 4 running CM 10. I could not get to it through recovery. Finally had to install Clockwork Mod, and that got me to where I needed to go to put 12.1 on the Nexus. I had gotten both from Play. Is there a better download for TWRP elsewhere? and a good wiki? (I do read everything)
I've had problems with Play, I have an Oppo and Google told me some of my apps would not run. BULL! i repurchased from Amazon and they ran just fine. Google has also insisted that some of my wifi only tablets belonged to my carrier.
I can't get Carbon to run - tried everything possible and no joy. Can TWRP run a backup if you aren't rooted? I didn't root the Oppo. You could turn everything off so rooting was not necessary.
I've ordered the Moto X Pure, and since I don't use Google for anything except apps, I have no contacts, sms or other goodies stored there.
I don't want to, either. There's other cloud services besides Google. I also have friends that despise Google. They buy a phone and only use what the carrier offers. They just leave phone stock and don't want their names in Google's database via emails. The carriers update the phones. I also don't use Gmail. The account is mostly just to give out to spammers and to buy apps.
If I'm paying for a private mail service, I don't see why Google should get the info.
I'm concerned about the contact list.
Will TWRP help? and which 3rd party is best?
Thanks
I use a fairly fast phone for certain apps. All are reference and I like having them on the phone. All my info is at my fingertips. These apps will not run on anything but a smart phone. I also always buy unlocked phones. TMO is switching bands and the Oppo doesn't have the newer ones that I want to try.
I'd prefer to give the phone a chance, but if I get too annoyed, I'll root it.
I see the info here has improved - it's no longer in phone shorthand where you have to look up all the shortcuts.

Google Assistant

So I was wondering how many of you had gone through with implementing the buildprop change that enables Google AI. I decided to do it the other night and have been fiddling around with it since then. If you haven't done it, it basically turns Now-on-Tap into "Voice Search by default," but you can still do screen searches for things like USPS Tracking and Phone/Address Lookup. Voice searches are vastly improved; it will auto-start Navigation, fetch links as a list of cards (for example, miniaturized news feeds), open apps instantly (provided the phone isn't locked), and essentially just be all around snappier than Google Now/Now-on-Tap.
That said, it does bother me that the phone literally had to be rebranded as a Pixel to make this work. A) It's not the most stable change, and 2) that change is now reflected on any device/prompt that interacts with my phone. It managed to be picked up by adware on a sketchy site (don't ask what sketchy sites I go to), and my desktop also mislabels it on USB connection. Does anyone know if Motorola allows you to change the device name for USB connection? I know LG lets you.
But yeah, those are my thoughts on it. I might try it out for a week or two, and if I'm not exactly bowled over by it, I'll probably just go back to Now-on-Tap. But I wanted to hear your guys' thoughts.
I don't even use now-on-tap, and I've done the assistant bulildprop trick before, and it made little to no difference on how often I use both of them. I understand what you mean by having to rebrand it to a pixel though - Google shouldn't make this Pixel exclusive
