Different Android Wear Versions on Watch and Phone - Moto 360 2015

Thetitle says it all. I just noticed that my phone is running AW 1.4 and my watch is running AW 1.3. I have tried to resync my apps but it doesn't change anything.
Is this normal?

Same thing here.
Watch has 1.3.0.2230669
Phone has 1.4.0.2470307.gms
What's the deal with that?

Exactly the same versions as me.

This just means that the app on the phone is prepared for the Wear 1.4 update, it just hasn't been released to your watch by Motorola, or Google, or wherever it comes from.
The only watch that has ever had 1.4 on it was the LG watch with LTE capability that got recalled shortly after it released.

another strange thing that i have noticed is that the watch shows that im running on android 5.1.1 while in reality my phone already upgraded to 6

Pretty sure that 5.1.1 is referring to the version of android your watch is running, not the phone.

LRX21R?

I'm seeing LRX21L & Q. Just received a N9 tonight. After the update I now have LRX21R.
Is this a new build or old?
This N9 is for my wife and it's staying stock. When I get mine, if this is a new build, do I need to wait for a new root method?
I currently have the L version. Perhaps, you have the newer update
Edit: I mean I currently have the Q.
I was running Q and when I got home tonight I was prompted to update to R. So I guess that's the most recent. Hopefully a fix for the WiFi issues.

We're running a 5gHz AC network. The N9 has a one brief disconnect. Feel pretty fortunate to have a solid N9. No flex, no light bleed. Extremely snappy.
Now I just have to learn how to root then adb for unlocking boot loader. WAY too much white in the UI. Burning my eyes.
OTA links
Posted the ota links for LRX21R in the other thread [REF] Nexus 9 Stock OTA URLs http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56840199&postcount=131
Nice, I haven't really had any issues with my N9 barring WiFi at the office. At home, everything is groovy. At the office, it won't connect to our guest network but it does connect with authentication to our main network. Not really sure what the differences are behind the scenes. I was hoping the update would fix the guest connection issue.
Hi, I'm stock Q, no root but unlocked, I will receive R by ota or I have to sideload it ?
I'm still on L.

I had to manually update mine to Q and still nothing about R in Canada either.
I've gotten nothing about R here in the US
I got a 17MB update this afternoon. Here is the screen shot. LRX21R.
I'm getting disconnected from WiFi almost every 1/2hr.
Edit: I'm from Southern California. Also, Google posted LRX21R factory image.

I'm also in Southern CA, but still on L. I do the "Check Now" pretty often, turn it off and back on again once a day, and can't even get the Q OTA. I'm really curious about Google's rollout method.
Did you do anything to trigger either update? I'd factory reset, but I'm 11 hours into Battleheart Legacy which does not support Play Games.
On a side note, I received the Nvidia Shield Tablet Lollipop update at 6:30am this morning - just as Nvidia promised. C'mon, Google!
Nope, i don't recall doing anything differently other than plugging it in to charge at night. Went to work, got home and the update popped up. I never understand how OTA is pushed out so I can't make any assumptions.
I am however experiencing many wifi drops after the update. I have my phone and tablet side by side and both connected to my wifi. Only the tablet is getting wifi drops.
i was playing word feud on the tablet and the notification to R came in after 3pm PST. im in LA ca.
updated just fine.
Got the update yesterday in the evening, my location is Germany

How to (try to) force an update AT LEAST to 4.4W.2?

Bought yesterday an LG G Watch (on sale at € 108 shipped, on the Italian Play Store, can't really say no at that price).
I had previously had this same smartwatch for a week but returned it because Android Wear was still too "immature"... At the time it was at the 4.4W.1 release. Lots of improvements and bug fixes came with the 4.4W.2 and still lots more are coming with the "Lollipop" release just going out now and which solves more "practical" issues I had with how Android Wear worked (e.g. you can now finally turn off the tilt motion to wake it up).
The problem I am now having is that the G Watch was updated to the 4.4W.1 version as soon as I paired it to my Note 3 and after a day and no matter what I tried, I am still on 4.4W.1!
Now, I can wait a week or 2 for the 5.0.1 version but I would like to get at least to the 4.4W.2 version in the meantime, since the 4.4W.1 has the problems (the bugs and the lack of features) which made me return the G Watch the first time...
After trying to restore the G watch and pair it again with the smartphone (a tedious process since you have to re-set everything up...) I am still unable to update and I now also have problems with Google Keep on the watch (it says unable to connect) and with another app (an internet browser). Never mind for the browser, but Keep is one of the killer applications for a smartwatch, for me.
BTW, the Android Wear companion app is the 1.0.5 version (got updated yesterday few hours after downloading it and setting up the watch the first time, and before trying to reset everything up).
So, any ideas about what to try..?
TIA
I'm in the same situation.
I just received it today and it's on 4.4W.
It downloaded an update (don't know which one), but when it propose me to update I click on the checkmark and it remain on the question if I want to update and nothing is happening.
My actual Android Wear app is 1.0.4.1611133
Do I need to update to 1.0.5?
Will it try to upgrade from 4.4W directly to 5.0.1 (I don't think so...)
What can I do?
Thanks
Woody
PS: It started again to download and now let me click on the checkmark to update.
Now I'm on 4.4W1.
In Settings I click on Software update and started again to download something (it will take a lot of time looking to the graphics).
It will be 4.4W2 or 5.01 ???

After the umpteenth reset (of both the G Watch and the Android Wear app) and re-pairing, I have finally managed to trigger an update.. Don't know which one yet since it's still donwloading.
Anyway, AFAIK to be able to get the 5.0.1 update you have to have the updated Android Wear app first but don't worry, it will update shortly via the Play Store as it did for me after a few hours. The problems were always about the G Watch only.
Ok thanks. What I am experiencing is frequently disconnection between Android Wear and the smartwatch. Even one every two minutes. What could be the reason?

It could really be many things (also on the phone side)... Try resettting the whatch maybe.. Fow what it's worth, I was not experiencing it and bear also in mind that Wear updates have always improved upon the BT connection so updating may very well fix your issues.
ANYWAY, DOWNLOAD IS FINISHED AND IT'S 5.0.1, so problem solved for me!
I'm glad for you, so the update was from 4.4w1 to 5.0.1?
With Android wear already at 1.0.5 or previous version?

Like I said, the Android Wear app got the 1.0.5 update a few hours after installing it on my Note 3 and AFAIK you must have the 1.0.5 version to get the 5.0.1 update on the watch (you should still be able to receive the 4.4W.2 update though).
Haven't you finished downloading and installing the update you were getting? It should be the 4.4W.2 update.
It's really really slow, it's going on from at least 45mins now. So if I "force" 1.0.5 downloading it and stopping the actual download on the smartwatch (that probably is 4.4w2) I should get directly 5.0.1...

Unless the download has stopped, I really wouldn't do that if I were you...
You are already experiencing problems with the watch (BT connection, download speed etc), problems which may make the next update troublesome and which would likely be fixed by the update you are already downloading..
Based on the time passed, it will take around four hours to download. Is it possible? I'm on an 8MB ADSL. Is it the BT so slow?
Done. I stopped the download, make a fabric reset, upgraded the Android wear to 1.0.5, restarted the download and after 3hrs it was updated to 5.0.1. Wonderful...
I have 1.0.5 of Android Wear, but I'm stuck on 4.4W.1 on the Sony Smartwatch 3 that I bought from Verizon this morning. Being new to Android Wear, it took me hours today to figure out why I couldn't do any of the cool things that the watch reviewers could do. I wasted so much time trying to get Google Play Music to work. Only to realize later that it's because I don't have that functionality yet. That functionality is why I bought the watch! It's what Sony and Google is selling!
If it doesn't come in a day or two, I'll have to return it. I don't trust Verizon to ever rollout an update. I know it should be a stock watch and have nothing to do with Verizon.... But I don't trust them to not have snuck in somehow and altered the watch so that they can control the updates.

Has nothing to do with Verizon... Android wear is purely controlled by Google/android...It is NOT a phone or tablet therefore a carrier cannot affect updates just be patient it's coming bro
Yes, I incorrectly disparaged Verizon, so I have to circle back and make the correction. It's a stock device and they have not customized the software like I had assumed. They tried to be helpful before passing me off to Sony this morning. On Sony's end, I had to download a Windows (also available for Mac) app called Sony PC Companion, and it forced an updated for my watch. So I'm up to 4.4W.2 and I have the features I want.

[Q] Android Wear 5.1.1 for LG G Watch roll out?

Apparently AW 5.1.1 is already rolling out for the Asus Zenwatch.
http://9to5google.com/2015/05/14/zenwatch-android-wear-5-1-1/
Anyone received it yet for our LG G Watches?
Just now I checked.
No update yet.
Hope we will get it soon.
waiting too...

Nope, the Android Wear updates are coming directly from google. All Android Wear watches are like nexus devices.
Yes they are all updated from Google servers, but Google are fairly random with all their updates, the order they do them in never makes any sense to anyone, least of all them.
Here is how the update rollouts work. This applies to Nexus updates, Google app updates, and Android Wear updates. http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/1r1dz4/44_kitkat_has_started_rolling_out_on_the_n4/cdiwt6f
It is, mostly.
Rollouts are conducted in phases. Typically they start at 1% of devices for around 24 - 48 hours; we watch the return rates and resulting device checkins and error reports (if any), and make sure nothing looks wrong before sending it to more. Then typically it goes to 25%, 50%, 100% over the course of a week or two.
What the percentages mean is that when your device checks in, it has a 1% chance (for example) of being offered the OTA. If it doesn't (randomly) get an offer, it will never get an offer until the next batch.
IOW, once your device checks in and gets turned down, that's it until the next batch. Mashing on the "check for updates" button just causes your device to check in again, and get automatically turned down again. Think about how that makes your device feel! WON'T SOMEONE PLEASE THINK OF THE PHONES?!
That said, once the new batch does start, hitting that button does give you a new roll of the dice -- but once. Since devices usually only check in for system updates every 24 hours (I think? Certainly on a many-hours basis) this can get you your shot sooner than it would happen on its own.
So, mash away. Just be patient, and mashing on it more often than once or twice a day isn't going to gain you anything.
Edit: also, keep in mind that this isn't first-come/first-served. You're not racing other devices to get your slot in the current batch, or something.

Yes, but what I meant is the order that devices get it, not individual units.
Looks like it may be rolling out today.

It seems to push notifications to the watch quicker (before it would always lag a second or two) and there seems to be a lot more options, like having a flashlight, the ability to change font sizes, etc.
Has any one grabbed the OTA?
Man I can't wait ! Still haven't got ota how do gestures work ?

It's Q3, wear is our Wear 2?

Anyone know a more precise date? I'm getting king of annoyed with Asus at this point.
"In search of incredible. Haven't found it yet"
No ETA! I actually lost faith in Wear 2!
It's not just Asus. Google has really goofed the Android Wear 2.0 rollout. For an Android version that was supposed to be under tight control, WTH Google?

This is unfortunately probably true.
Unfortunately, we don't know where the hold up is. Unlike normal Android builds, Google controls Android Wear and builds the ROM which OEMs then tweak. Supposedly, the Zenwatches are being held up by Google, not Asus. I don't get why, since all Android watches from the ZW2 generation had the exact same SoC, and I believe all of the watches in the ZW3 generation also have the exact same SoC, but there you have it.
Shut up about wear 2.0. The watch works fine as it is.
It'll be here by Xmas. Maybe not this Xmas.

Not for everyone. I would like to just type or write words on my watch like you can do in AW2.0 instead of saying them out loud. But I can't right now... Also there are a lot of problems with the watch using my phone's GPS, which I didn't have on WebWear 2.0. So no, it isn't working fine as it is for me.

Not only that, but I have constant issues with my phone going to DnD as well as text messages delayed on my Zenwatch for 5,10,15+ minutes, too. We need Android Wear 2.0 sooner rather than later! I rely on message alerts when I am running equipment and can't hear/feel my phone!
Not to mention uninstalling useless apps. I get notified Everytime I drive by a Lowe's. The app on the watch literally does nothing useful. I can't uninstall it without uninstalling the app from my phone.

You do know you can turn off notifications for that?
When a company says they will have something out by a specific time they should either keep to their word or at least be honest if there's delays. ASUS so far has not replied to one single comment I've posted on social media on why we haven't gotten the update. To me that's a sign of a company that doesn't care about it's customers is when they don't even attempt to answer simple questions. Even a blank "it's delayed until further notice" is better than dead silence.

There's only been one update since the phone came out, and that was in April.
Went out to get the mail, came back and I noticed a download icon on my phone, turns out its in the middle of an update. File size is 477.3mb. I already have the update from April, so Im not sure what this'll be. Guess I'll know within the hour, as its downloading quite slowly.

I just finished downloading it myself. It's at updating now... (1/2) stage right now. I hope they fix all the issues and complains people had, or at least most of them.
It went from 11a to 12b. I do not notice any differences yet, but I didnt experience issues prior to the update either.
Hopefully this fixed my Bluetooth issues. I installed it and will try it when I leave work to see if my streaming issue goes away (static/crackle).

And....It doesn't.
The latest update bricked my phone this morning. It got stuck on the LG screen, then occasionally flashing the "Your device is corrupt. It can't be trusted and my not work properly." I couldn't even factory reset it. Took it to a Verizon store and they couldn't do anything either. At least they will FedEx me another phone overnight.

For me, this update broke the BLuetooth transmission of audio track data to my car stereo head unit. I post in the general G6 forum earlier:
'I have a new G6 and a new problem with Play Music. When connected via Bluetooth to my 2016 Subaru Outback head unit, Play Music track info does not appear on the head unit display. My previous LG G5 had no problem doing this consistently. Other apps like Pocket Casts displays track info, no problem. I reviewed the G6 supported Bluetooth profiles and they are compatible with the Subie head unit.
This is maddening! Has anyone else experienced this and then found a solution?
cheers,
mordango
UPDATE: I had this phone replaced with fresh G6. It was still on the 11a Verizon software version. Connected it to the car head unit via Bluetooth, played Google Play Music, got all the info on the head unit as it was supposed to do. Updated to 12b software version, no more music information displayed on the head unit. So, the 12b update breaks this for Play Music. Some other audio apps still display info but Play Music and Soundcloud are broken."
