Moto 360 won't stay connected - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've had this issue across all Roms with all settings. The watch just does not stay connected to the phone and you can't get it to reconnect until you factory reset the watch.
Anybody have any suggestions?

Can you try to replicate the problem with any other Android Wear smartwatches?

I have a Moto 360 2015, and it stays connected all day long. Tested with stock MM and other custom ROMs too.

i have no problems with the original moto 360, it's probably the watch or some hardware quirk

Damn. Thanks anyway, now I won't drive myself crazy looking for a fix. :good:
However, if anyone has this problem in the future and stumbles across this thread, this is what I've found keeps the device connected for the longest period of time (1-2 days):
Power off both the watch and the phone, and then turn them on at the same time.

Nexus 10 restarting randomly

Hi all, had my nexus 10 since the opening sale on the google play store. Recently I've been having issues with it restarting randomly, in some cases when it has just been sitting on my desk without any input.
I've also had a few problems with the wifi as well as a creaky backplate. I see the backplate issue is common with most who have the device but was wondering if the WiFi issue could be the reason my device keeps restarting? I'm at the point now where I may have to send it back.

All those issues are common problems with 4.2.x right now.

The quick and easy fix that worked for me was to disable all location settings. It did the trick and it should for you as well. Hope that helps.

I'd be willing to bet it was rebooting the whole time and you didn't notice. Turning off the location services is hit and miss. Some say it cures it (after an unspecified amount of time usually) but others like me still see reboots.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
I just started getting the reboot error except I was able to isolate the problem to a lost wifi signal. With chrome reloading a couple pages, turn off my wifi router and the nexus 10 will freeze. It won't respond to any input and will just set for about a minute until it finally reboots on its own.
Only time ever I have had the freeze/reboot error is when I went into an area that lost the signal. Seems like chrome/nexus 10 does not know how to handle the lost signal and tries to correct it with a hardware reboot. Happens at both 2.4 and 5ghz.
Hopefully be corrected in the next software upgrade.

I only have issues if the AP in the router is set to use a 40Mhz channel bandwidth. If I set it to 20Mhz, I can enjoy stable wifi goodness. It took me 2 RMA'd Nex 10s and testing with 3 different routers to come to this conclusion, but this was the workaround that succeeded for me.

I have actually noticed a difference on the different routers so I'll pay a bit more attention to this and see if my device reflects the same results.
I'm in the same situation. I will be reviewing my 4th replacement unit. I will keep replacing it until it works like it's suppose to.

+1. Same process worked wonders for my N10.
I know random reboots is common with 4.2 but is it possible it's hardware related or something else? Reason being, I get alot of random reboots on the PUB AOKP rom, that just about all other users of that rom say they have zero random reboots, and I also get reboots while in TWRP, which I have reinstalled multiple times.

For me, I have the problem about one per day. Disabling location services did little for me. What helped the most was replacing Chrome with Firefox.

Its just so ludicrously awful to need to replace default apps and turn off features to have a usable tablet. Not so much for us because we will root and fix things ourselves but if a random person goes into best buy and buys a nexus 7 or 10 they will have a bad experience. All the people who say android is buggy...this is why. Its unfortunate how broken 4.2 is.

Since you set your router to 20 MHz has it continued to work without rebooting? Also do have geo location enabled ? Thanks
Mine also random reboot and hang. When fix will be out! This is crazy for v4.2 or v4.2.1
Android please release fixed as soon as possible.
Any kernel or ROM solving this issue now? Or all same?

I rooted my Nexus 10 and was on CM 10.1 nightlies before switching to LiquidSmooth. No random reboots in either case! I think Google will fix this in the next release.

Ya, I was at CM 10.1 now, it was much better, especially when removed and not using Chrome. By the way CM 10.1 stock browser was much better and smooth.
Android must fix it!
Hate to say it but this is what a nexus user does lol bug reporting I'm sure Google are keeping an eye out on this topic loll, mine reboots when updating apps from the play store. I'll post a video on youtube when I get a chance.

Yeah I'm on a custom ROM with linaro optimizations and its fantastic. Slapped in ktmanta kernel and now just full of win. Aosp browser is better than chrome anyway. It's a sad state of affairs when community work is better than Google's but at least we can enjoy alternatives.

I have a hunch that the CPU isn't getting enough power. I've currently upped the voltage by 25V so I'm going to see if that does anything. Using CleanROM definitely did reduce it though.

LRX21R Improvements

I managed to install LRX21R update. Factory image Q first.
Any differences from Q?
I still experience warming up while browsing in chrome.

i disable chrome and use chrome beta on all my devices. doesn't seem to get very warm for me
Is battery life better with Chrome Beta?
I tried to side load the ota and it errors at package.zip. copied it over to twrp and when I try to flash it it says it's meant for a flounder while I have a volantis device. I unlocked the boot loader, used CFroot, and flashed twrp after using the factory images for the previous release.
IMO this the same as Q build but for folks like me and many others who could not install becase old recovey. I dont see many changes yet - browsing still drains like 1% every two minutes making this tablet piece of useless electronics.

I'm going to assume you haven't investigated what is causing your wakelocks. because that is abnormal drain time for any device. you are on lollipop, running old KitKat and donut software most likely . there are a number of free LP compatible wake lock analyzing options out there. solve your problems (in turn, help others with same issue), or consider going back to a pager.

I got R loaded up and re-reooted. I just opened up 8 tabs in chrome and clicked on links in all of them. The N9 is not as hot as it use to be. I'm still going to play around with it and monitor, but so far so good over here.
Just got a 17MB update from Q to R. I'm getting a lot of Wi-Fi dropouts.

Yeah I'm aware of such software and using it on my 1+1. However I wanted to at least try to use my Nexus 9 as "normal user" would do for the first time. Browsing still drains ridiculous amount of battery however I confirm that it is now much better on R build. And heating is much less.
Ps never owned a pager
any improvement on screen flicking?

I got tired of waiting for Google to issue a working OTA for those of us stuck on LRX21L so I flashed the LRX21R factory image. I'm very happy with it and am glad I took plunge. Noticeable improvements on smoothness. Device still gets hots at times but its improved IMO.
FYI.. I tried following googles instruction for flashing the image. It didn't work.. It crapped out on the SYSTEM.IMG.
Manually flashing each of the IMG files went fine though and all is now working great.
Lastly,
I'd like to point out the the device restore feature worked much better than I had hoped. It even managed to keep app data settings on a couple of apps (that don't have sign in accounts).

Nexus 6 Issues thread

I thought it might be a good idea to come together and list issues we may have found.
I have to say that I love this phone.
Issues list:
1) Apps/widgets that need to access the secured/encrypted storage either crash or report that there is no sd-card, or the sd-card is unreadable.
2) The screen turn on sensor seems a little too sensitive. For instance riding in the car with the phone sitting on my leg, the screen would come on any time the road was bumpy or coming to a stop quickly.
As this will be a running list, please chip in. I am hoping we can track these as well as if fixes are released, or we decide to take them on and fix them ourselves.
I do not want any of the junk like have been in other threads about weight and size, etc. Please keep these to real issues with the phone or the software.
Well.... the app/widget issue is probably more of an issue with the app/widget itself requiring an update for better Lollipop compatibility.
As for the ambient display.... pretty sure they wanted it to be something that's convenient and easy to use. Not something that would require you to violently shake your phone to get it to turn on. I can pick it up off my desk without it turning on, then put it into my other hand, only letting it fall into my hand ever so slightly, and the ambient display turns on. Of course it's going to turn on if you're going down a bumpy road with it on your leg.
Has anyone experienced a crash and reboot yet? It happened to me a few minutes after installing the software update.
Can't connect to Moto360 watch. Thought that was very odd. Seeing if anyone else is having issues with android wear

Are you charging the phone at the same time? If so unplug the phone from the charger and see if that solves the noise.
One thing I've noticed is that when wireless charging, when it hits 100%, it completely stops charging. You'd think this would be a good thing, but with my N5, it would drop to trickle-charge mode, but would at least keep the charging indicator active. Since the N6 stops charging completely, daydreams will stop functioning, and you'll go back to the home screen. Depending on the charge cycle, the phone may come awake or stay awake most of the night. in addition to making it worthless as a bedside clock, this also makes me concerned of burn-in. This is, after all, an AMOLED screen, which is prone to burn-in issues.
I will say that every now and again, my phone will make a static noise from the top speaker even though there's nothing audio playing. It did it significantly more before I installed the update and barely does it now.

It did it the most during setup when it was restoring my phone, then for a while before I installed the update, and barely now. I've only been using the phone about 12 hours now and I'm pulling it off it's first charge now. It may be a total non-issue but it's something I'm keeping my eyes and ears on.

This actually sounds like a hardware defect I would send back ASAP. Thank you all for posting your issues for those of us who are on the fence this helps what we maybe walking into when purchasing this device.
I have seen the restart issue once or twice and it seems like my GPS doesn't get a complete lock on me while using maps, it did at first and after 10 min or so it would no longer zoom in on you in google maps when it locked on your signal. Not sure if this is a google maps issue or a GPS issue though.

Well, I got mine from T-Mobile so I don't think it's just as easy as getting another one. I freaking love the phone though. My biggest and only real gripe is the button placement. I hit the volume rocker almost every time I try to do anything on it. Lol.

[MotoMaxx] Lollipop Soak Test Impressions

Please dont ask where to get it or if you are from soak or not we have plenty of threads asking that, just opinions please.
Hi guys, i wanted to know how do you feel this pre-release of lollipop, so far i just installed it and had no problem with it. seems smooth not a single error.
some guys says the drain battery issue was fixed, but i have to see for myself, so how is your experience so far?

Working great so far for me. Had a little bit of lag that went away as soon as I did a factory days reset. Can't comment on standby battery life since I have been pounding this thing all day. But → now I am at 41% with 4 hours and 23 minutes of screen time.
I do have an issue with Nokia's Here navigation app, but it may be that it is not lollipop compatible. Have not dug around to see if that is the case.
All in all, this is a very solid release, and I will probably stick with it. At least until custom roms start coming out for moto maxx.
Any camera improvements?

All devices than get lollipop is better have factory reset for good perfomance
Am i having one of them, whatchamacallit, placebo effect, or has the bluetooth streaming quality improved.?
I think my music sounds better.
Any one else?
Edit:
Bluetooth music streaming seems to drop or pause for a second every few minutes
Edit 2:
Turning bluetooth off and then back on seems to have solved the issue so far.
it take it 4% in one night in stanby
battery seems the same to me.
have some lags and some freezing too for 30 seconds -1 minute
hope Moto will solve this problems
Did you guys clean installed? Because I did, I cleared user data and cache
For those with the freezing/stuttering/lag issues, did you perform a factory data reset prior to installing the OTA?

I did a factory data reset after installing. That took care mostly of the lag, but i keep having bluetooth issues.
Sometimes streaming music pauses on my Bluetooth music speaker, and it drops the connection on my stereo
headset. Things that do not happen with my older phones.
In all fairness, it could be because of the hybrid Brazil/Puerto Rico thing, but honestly, I don't think so as I was already having
Bluetooth issues before. Plus, everything else is working great. Signal is rock solid and I get LTE with no problems at all.
May have a defective phone.

Yes. I actually did not miss custom roms on kitkat with gravity box.
I hope they iron out the kinks soon!
Which version did they push? 5.0,.01, or .02?
.02
good so far
I haven't found any bug. I see volumen calls, screen brigthness, battery life improvement.
Everything runs smooth. Now i see the diference between my droid maxx and this.
47hrs.
some bugs i've noticed so far:
Sometimes when connected on a wifi network, disconnects and reconnects again, this didnt happen on kitkat, happens randomly
When listening to google play music and then receive a notification the music doesn't resume again, you have to click pause and play to resume to playing the song.
My impressions are great!! I did a full convert to BRZ firmware from PR Moto Maxx flashed every file, full wiped in fastboot, then did the OTA zip. So far it has been amazing, specially smoothness and battery life!!
Of course, im rooted and running Greenify, plus froze unnecessary stuff. (I dont use none of the moto stuff)
If you upgraded and having performance issue with stuttering and lags, I highly recommend performing a factory reset. I did mine through recovery and wiped Data & Cache.
That made a massive difference.
I have an wifi issue, it's not turning on at all. On 4.4 it's working fine, even on BR firmware (my phone is PR). Is Anybody met this?

When you say "flashed every file" do you mean just the system image files in the OP of the lollipop install thread or do you literally mean every file (I.e. bootloader, radio, etc)? I've been wanting to go this route of converting my PR Maxx to Brazilian retail 100% as well by flashing all the files.

Ghost Touch while charging

Moto G4 XT1622 16gb using normal charger, no turbo charger.
The ghost touch starts when using the phone while charging and even continues after the charger is disconnected, to stop it I have to turn the screen off and on again.
There is a oficial solution for this?
Is this 100% a hardware issue or it can be solved with a Moto update in the near future?
Cheers.

XT1622 here, Mine has been displaying the same ghost touch problem. It just bought me a camera while I was browsing the Ebay app, Buy It Now. Seller wasn't too amused but cancelled the order. Did tell him it was my phone and sent him a link to the Lenovo forum. Apparently it's a software problem and not a hardware one, Hard to believe! Thing is they won't tell anyone what the fix is, just telling people to take it to there nearest service centre.
Same hear screen goes nuts till remove charger if try use while plugged in only had phone few days was going to return as thought faulty but clearly it's software related hope it's fixed in N

hi, i am interested buying a european version of moto g4 , is the ghost touching problem still exists? Is it hardware or software? I am very afraid of buying the device if i am going to face this serious problem!
Software I'd say still present in 7.0 atm

This is not good. I remember that i read somewhere (don't remember forum) that Nexus 5x had something similar. Particularly when connecting to pc via USB.

Yes I remember having it on my Nx5 as well , for me not big issue if on charge I'm not using it doesn't seem so persistent on 7.0 as well couple times I've picked up and used while charging hasn't done it

I'm experiencing ghost touch on an almost daily basis now, mostly on battery power. I've never experienced it while charging. XT1625 model. I even contacted support and they kept telling me about software fixes (reset, change settings etc.) all of which to no avail. I'm convinved it's a hardware problem at this point and it's continually getting worse.
Of course when I spoke to them via live chat, they danced around the issue and finally gave me a number for the Spanish support line, (i don't even speak spanish) and left it at that. Gotta love support.
Something I've tried that is helpful for me is lowering the brightness.
Next time you have ghost touch problems try lowering the brightness and see what happens.
On my phone it makes the ghost touch go away completely but I can't speak for anyone else.
Not a permanent solution for sure but until one is found it beats having to reboot your phone.
Hi guys. I simply solved this problem using an app called "Touchscreen Repair", from the Play Store.
I tought it was useless, but incredibly it works!!!! I had ghost touch problems while charging with a quickcharger 3.0, I could not write a message! But now it seems to work well!
Hoping to help someone! Let me know if it's works for you!
