[FIX] How to fix Moto 360 Black Screen/Unresponsive Button Issue - Moto 360 2015

Hey guys,
I'm not entirely sure where to post this but today i had a scare with my Moto 360 2nd Gen as i resetted it, and placed it on the dock to charge however when i took it off again, the screen was just completely black and when i pressed the Button it simply did not react, i placed it on the dock to see if the indicator on the dock appeared in which it did
The way i solved my issue was held the power button for 30 Seconds, Once done i powered it back on normally and it worked fine. I hope this helped anyone who had an issue.

i have run into this problem really often - was sure that the watch is dead, in general i'm disappointed from the watch, its unresponsive, its reboots 4-5 times a day, it has tons of lag, it has graphical glitches, jesus it reminds me the early days of android. not sure who to blame?! motorola or android wear? its so far from a complete and polished product... the only thing that solves this for me is factory reset and after a few days of use its starting all over again.

I have zero issues with mine. Maybe take it back and have it replaced.

well, not so easy for someone that bought the watch from bestbuy when i was on vacation in the US, moto has zero presence in my home country, fingers crossed that it won't turn into 400$ paper weight
i do happy with the battery life

Have you even tried to contact them? Everything should happen online regardless of purchase location.
You should just contact Motorola support via live chat. They'll email you and probably ask for a video of the device malfunctioning to confirm the issue. Then they'll send you a code to immediately order a new device and email a shipping label. When you order a new device they'll place a hold on your card until they receive the malfunctioning device.

[Q] Tablet Turning Off....

I have been noticing this problem since the last 1 week. I never faced this problem earlier. Even with 50% charge, when I turn the display off at night, by the time I wake up in the morning, the tablet refuses to turn ON. When I put it on my cradle, the light turns RED suggesting that the tablet had discharged (which is strange cos I turned Wifi Off before going to sleep.) The only way to turn the display ON (even after charging the tablet for some time) is to click the Reset button.
On Resetting, only on one occasion I found that the tablet had really lost all the juice (which is strange) but on all the other 3-4 occasions, after the reset I saw there was atleast 40% juice left. So it is really strange why the tablet would not turn ON.
I never faced this problem when I had GB. Could this be happening after the ICS update?? Has anyone else faced a similar problem??
Please reply
(I am currently in US but am going off to India in June for a year. Hence if there is something wrong with my tablet, I will not even get a warranty out there. So, unless this is a common problem for everyone, I am considering to sell off my tablet as soon as possible and get some thing else......possibly a TF300)
I have noticed similar issues with my previousley UK tablet and now US with ICS (rooted).
Putting the tablet to sleep and coming back to it later finding it's completley dead and the only way to wake it is to hold the power button to power on or to recharge and do the same .
Thanks. So maybe I am not the only one.
My suspicion is that it is either with the ICS update where something has gone wrong causing the tablet to go to a deep sleep sometimes (This doesnt occur all the time.........just time and often)
OR
Since my tablet is about 6 months old now, maybe the battery Sony had provided is not good enough. Probably it has already started dying.
can others confirm whether they notice any such problem as well??
Note: It doesnt go into deep sleep all the time. Just about 2-3 times a week, I'll notice that it has gone totally dead and the only way to wake it up is to click the reset button and reboot the tablet. (On two of such occasions I noticed the battery completely died........while on the other cases after waking up it still had 40-50% remaining)
Why don't you send it back to Sony to have a look since its still under warranty?
I have been asked to do a reset and factory data reset to see if it solves the issue. I shall be doing that. However, the problem is that this issue does not occur every time. I have noticed it happening one or two times every week. Its not that every time I turn the screen OFF it refuses to turn ON and hence I need to do a soft reset.
The Sony guys still advised to do a factory data reset and then contact Sony for repairs if it doesnt solve the problem. So that's gonna be like another week till I know for sure (If I notice the issue) if it resolved the issue OR I need a repair/replacement.
I have a new tablet (2 weeks of use) with US ICS installed usingh AIO and experienced the same thing twice. I think it's the PS emulator, since the app was running when this happened.
Both times It refused to power on and I had to hold the power button for a while.
I'll keep and eye on it and let you know.
I have a similar problem. It also occurs intermittently and has only been happening post is (rooted in UK with region change).
Yesterday I went out for a couple of hours and left my fully charged tablet in standby. I when I got back it would nt turn on. The green mail notification list was flashing so I knew the battery was ok. Fake I plugged in the charger and the power light was yellow. I waited about 5 mins with the tablet charging and then pressed the power button and it rebooted.
On reboot, then battery showed 50%. This happens maybe once week.

Thought I'm the only one who face this issue.
Mine is wifi SG version and happen once under HC and one more time under AiO US ICS firmware.
Both times I need to do a reset before it came back on.
Good Bye Tablet S
Sony customer care and technical support proved useless in identifying the issue. I pointed them to this and other forums where the same issue has been repeated. I have been asked to Factory Data Reset the tablet. Even after doing that I am facing the same problem. (Once a week now).
When I called them up again, they said I need to send it over to them for service and repair where they will try to diagnose the problem and possibly repair it if required.
As I am going back to India in mid June, my US warranty will be void on the tablet. So I did not want to continue with the Sony Repair process (cos chances are high that I'll face the same problem again and at that point there would be no warranty on the tablet where I could get it repaired/replaced for free).
So, with a lot of burden on my heart, I have moved on to Transformer Pad TF300.
I really loved my Sony Tablet S. However, the software support from Sony really isn't good. They are at least a lot better in the smart phone department.
Will probably go for sony once again when their next generation tablet comes out. Adios........and Good luck to all the tablet S owners.......I hope Sony fixes the issues.........cos customer satisfaction should be the no.1 priority for a company in order to compete with the very best.
As per sony dealer here in Saudi Arabia, sony's warranty works around the world, I asked specifically cause I'm not from here & planning to go home soon

Lumia 920 Freezing... Hard

I picked up my first 920 from somewhere other than ATT. It initially had an small issue with its audio where the external sounds were not initially enabled. I did a hard reset to be sure, and both times it was off. Got past that and the phone seemed ok, until I unplugged it and hit the power button and it froze... HARD! No response from any button, or combination of buttons. I returned it and went to got the next one from ATT. This one started out perfectly, had no issue with sound. Then during a call it FROZE. Not as hard as the first one as connecting power and holding the <Volume Down> and <Power> buttons for 2-3 minutes finally rebooted it. That I have similar experiences with two phones says that there may well be something wrong the phone in general, and I am very surprised that I have not found it reported by others here. Have I missed something?

No, I don't think you have. The majority of them have been fine. In fact, mine has been perfect so far. Maybe the place you got yours got a bad batch?

Mine froze while trying to post using board express. It reboted and was fine. Other than that, no lockups since and I'm a heavy user.
I've also been having problems. After heavy use, it becomes very warm and tends to lock up.
I just uploaded a video to YouTube showing this.
http://youtu.be/x0KtZ7VCcTE
I can cause a hard freeze when jumping from bluetooth audio and back when nothing is selected to play. Other than that great phone..
Have this same issue with bluetooth - phone has locked up 4 times in two days. I didn't notice a correlation with nothing selected to play, so I'll check that. Typically I get into my car and the music just starts playing, and when I leave it pauses. Now it'll freeze when I get in and my car will say "Windows Phone operation not supported." After a minute or two (I usually power off the car stereo) the phone will come back with the song queued up at the top (as if I hit the volume). I hope this is addressed by the fix coming out in December.
Other than that the phone has been great - no issues.
Second Returned
I was in the middle of a conversation today and it just stopped. The call didn't drop, the phone just stopped, locked up hard for the second time. I return it and got a replacement (last day I could do it). It concerns me that there has not been more traffic about what seems to be a major issue with the 920

There's loads of complaints about this problem on the Nokia support discussions website, but there isn't a single common cause. Some have SIM card problems while others are blaming specific apps. Whatsapp and Facebook are two examples as well as Nokia Drive + Beta. Others have reported their phones freezing up after using a wireless charger.
Personally, I reckon it's the WP OS isn't at all stable and needs a serious patch.
We bought 2 at once - the one keeps freezing and the other never froze once. Both are using BTooth. However both are randomly rebooting, which I know they are patching.
But I wonder if the freezes and rebooting are related?
Mine hasn't rebooted to my knowledge but it does regularly freeze. It froze again on Friday and now refuses to power back on. I've repeatedly tried the two button and three button resets but the phone won't even vibrate. I've left it on charge using two different charges and tried the wireless charging plate but it's still dead.
Looks like its off to repair then. Not a good few weeks with the 920.
We took the one phone back to have it replaced. ATT obliged because it was within 14 days.
Still freezes. Only happens when on BTooth in the car.
I really hope a software updates this because it is a deal breaker!
Try setting the highest data speed to 3G for a while and let me know if that helps...

Mine freezes overnight when charging it with a wireless charger. every.single.time. Back to the store today as it is clearly defective, new one is already pre-ordered
Guys I have a strange problem with my lumia 920. When I use the phone while it's connected to the wall charger sometimes it's touchscreen becomes unresponsive. When I have to lock and unlock the phone using the power button everything again becomes normal. This happens quite a few times while charging.
Other than the above mentioned problem my phone froze once for which I had to do soft reset.
I want to ask is this happening with me only or others are experiencing it too.
And is there any solution to it??
Thanks in advance.....

Mobile data connection lost!

This is my second padphone in 3 weeks and both devices have lost mobile data connection. The first time AT&T told me it was because of a crack on the screen. Made no sense but I paid the 200$ for insurance and got it replaced now the replacement is doing the same thing. For no reason at all I will loose all connection and the phone says no service and then comes back after a random amount of time.
Is anyone else experiencing this behavior?

Not at all. Sorry.
I had the same problem too. Just change the sim card to a new one and it will be alright again
Have you updated the IMEI with at&t? I had some small issues with my data until I updated. Tether didn't work either. It would give my computer an IP but wouldn't pass traffic.

Did you lose power first? Were you in tablet mode when it happened? You should check out the "Phone Died" thread and contact [email protected] You are not alone and this seems to be a fairly widespread issue. It was not the crack on the screen. Scott's email is [email protected].
Same issue as modirator

Yes the phone was in the tablet while charging. This happened to me 3 times. 1st device I had taken the phone out of the charger and it wouldn't power on until I connected the phone directly to the charger. But it didn't have data connection when it finally powered up. The 2nd device I disconnected the charger from the tablet then pulled it out but it still happened. 3rd device I disconnected the charger from the tablet and tried powering on the device through the tablet. Still same problem the thing wouldn't turn on. So i pulled the phone out plugged it to the charger held the power button. It came one and as you guess no network. But in my case I get no network at all. So if there is a fix please let me know because this is very frustrating. I have had 3 of the phones and all of them have now had the same exact problem. My opinion is that this is a malfunction with the tablet. Because from my experience it never happens when the phone is charging directly through the charging cable.

Thanks Acriar for the additional information. So far every failure like this is pretty consistently in conjunction with the tablet. No, I don't have a fix. I wish I did, because your reply does not give me much hope for my third device. Again, let [email protected] know. Hopefully they are putting sufficient engineering resources on to this to fix it else the Padfone X's life in the US will be short at best.

Exactly my experience with the first phone. AT&T replaced that one. Didn't replace the one w/ dead pixels.
Similar problems with dropping network
I began having problems with the network dropping 2 weekends ago. I moved my phone from my pocket to the station, but the station never 'start'. When pulled out, the phone would not start. Neither was low on battery. Finally got the phone to start when I plugged it into the charger. That has happened a few more times since then. After that, the network was totally undependable for the night and next day, despite restarts of all types. I was on a trip, and when I got home the problem continued for the night, but then disappeared the next morning before I could take it to the ATT store. Worked fine a few days, then occasionally could connect and occasionally not. A restart of the phone usually gets the network back - but not always. My wifi connection has always been available when wifi was around, but the LTE is suddenly disappearing fast. Will send note to Scott, but wanted to add to this thread. BTW, great site. Thanks for the info here. Best padfone x forum I've found by far.

For those of you with this problem the answer is to contact Asus. From my analysis when I sent mines in here's the problem. So as you see from my response the phone was over charging when left in the tablet for an extended period of time. Well it's not that the tablet wasn't managing this charge correctly it was the charger as well. I say this because when they returned my device it was accompanied by a new charger, and yes they replaced the tablet as well. But there is a new feature in their UI that request you use the factory charger when charging your device while in the tablet. I checked the numbers on the old charger that i had from my previous phones ( the failed one's before) and it had a different version number on it than the new one they sent. I also noticed some of the AMPs and voltage had been changed. That all said I want to give a big thank you to Asus repair because they are actually an honest bunch, and here's why. So as explained above i, like many of you, have had several of these devices. Just so happened that on the third one I'd been working out on hot day and when I arrived home was still sweating. The wet sensor for the device, for those that don't know, is right on the back where your fingures rest while holding it. As expected I touched it while sweating and it turned red, was unaware of this at the time however. Soon after the third device failed and I tired returning it to At&t. They explained they could not accept it due to the wet sensor. I explained that the phone was not water damaged and the problem that existed was the same as the past devices I returned. But they washed their hands of it and would not take it back. On to Asus; they were taking my tablet in as an RMA and explained they could check the damages on the phone, after I explained my situation. They explained they would let me know the repair cost for the phone before returning the devices. I asked if they would take an honest look at it in this case, explaining that if they found water damage that I would fully pay for the repairs but if the damage was due to the malfunction could they just fix that. Well they, unlike AT&T, did just and replaced the damaged device. I must say it is very rare for a company to have such conviction to its customers and truly appreciate their dedication. And if you are wondering about how the new setup is after the update so far no problems.

And I agree- ASUS's handling of the issue wasn't bad. They even replaced my scuffed tablet dock back cover. But it wasn't the charger- mine went out while discharging, every time. Sometimes within seconds of being docked. I had two different tablet dock hardware versions and both failed on me. It was something in the phone's handling of it, is my guess, seeing as the firmware update seemingly fixed it.

My defective device story

I walked into best buy at store opening on release day and picked up a still warm from the assembly line N9. I don't use it much so i never really put much thought into it. However i was playing Clash of clans one day and i was having a hard time getting troops to deploy. I did little investigation and was able to reproduce this touch screen issue. Its might be one out of 20 times but then i can click a few times in the same spot with no response. Its really inconsistent but its there. I contacted HTC they first had me factory reset and yep its still there. Then they had me mail it into them on my dollar.... fine whatever i just want it fixed. They receive it, say its good and send it back.
Thoughts on what i should do?
Buy another at best buy and return the defective one with your receipt. Quick and no BS to deal with.
Actually I encountered a similar issue while playing Uplink; sometimes the screen just stops reacting to touch inputs. My workaround would be to rotate the device by 180° with Auto-rotate activated. When the new orientation kicks in it works again.
I've so far attributed that to some Lollipop bug, but if it turns out to be a hardware issue it would be pretty severe. For now I'll stick with my device and I hope your new one, should you replace it, will work properly.

Returns

Has anyone had to return their Moto 360 yet? Mine stopped responding to touch on the bottom 1/3 of the screen near the beginning of this week. I had a pattern lock set up and couldn't get past it as the bottom was unresponsive. After a few attempts the factory reset screen came up but the accept button was on the bottom. After a few minutes of tapping it finally recognize one and performed a factory reset. Upon reboot the bottom was still unresponsive.
I called Moto support and they are sending me a new one. They offered to have me send in my current one first and then send me a new one, or put a $99 hold on my credit card and pay $24.99 for shipping. I went for the latter and a new one will be shopping soon.
I'm wondering if anyone else has had screen issues and how wide spread it is. Also has anyone had any issues with returns?
Anyone?
None here... Yet!
I was in a meeting 2 weeks ago and checked the time and my whole screen was unresponsive, just a black screen even with always on mode enabled. I tried for like 20 minutes to get it to respond to touch and nothing. I got home and thought the battery might be dead even though I only had it on for 10 hours so I put it in it's charging craddle and still nothing. I went to get my phone to check bluetooth and it said watch was connected, checked android wear and it said connected too. Went back to get the watch and it was now on and showing 50% battery. This was 2 weeks ago and haven't had the problem re-occur. I paid for the extended warranty plan so not to concerned right now, and as I already scratched the screen I will most likely replace it anyways.

My 360 did get a little sluggish at times and froze a couple of times prior to the final issues I had with the bottom. I also had a message on occasion saying android wear had stopped and would eventually restart. When I had a freeze holding down the power button will eventually do a restart. All of those issues I attributed to buggy software that I hope gets solved in future updates. My final issue involving the bottom portion being unresponsive persisted after a factory reset.

I never had an issue with it before this happened. And holding the button down didn't do anything for for me, it still remained off even after holding it for over a minute. It just came back on all on its own for whatever reason and luckily hasn't happened again.
Well this isn't looking good. Spent two hours on the phone with Motorola support and was transferred about seven times before someone could figure out what happened to my RMA. I did finally get someone to help me but she had to start the whole process over. My credit card was refunded for the hold and shipping fee and the new one is now supposed to be "rushed".
Just an update
At this point I have spoken to over a dozen reps(I lost count), was transferred back and forth between several departments, was hung up on several times(I even switched phones to make sure it wasn't on my end), and spent countless hours trying to get this resolved. I've never had such horrible customer service. Finally yesterday I received an email with a working promo code for a new watch using the moto-maker site and am crossing my fingers I'll have a new one soon.
Sorry for the rant, I actually started this thread to see how many had any hardware problems, not to complain about Moto support. I was actually hopeful about the whole thing as there wasn't much response to my original inquiry here, but this last week has really turned me off of Motorola.
Update: New 360 arrived today.
My Moto's touch stopped working yesterday. It started with "phantom touches", where the display lighted up as if I touched it. When I actually touched the display, it was partially unresponsive. When I tried swiping, the menus stuck in between and were shaking horizontally. I could hard-reset the watch by pressing the button for 30 seconds. After that, the watch was working fine for a few minutes, then the trouble started all over again. Today, it got even worse as the display did not react on any touches any more...
I was able to reset it to factory settings, but it didn't help, so it does not seem to be a software issue.
Luckily I had ordered it at Amazon a few weeks ago, so I am getting a new watch as replacement. I hope I just had bad luck with that watch, and it's not a general issue.

That's what I am hoping as you and I are the only ones responding with problems so far. As you can see from my other posts I don't think Motorola even knew how to handle a return for one of these. Amazon should be a much more pleasant experience in that regard.
Did you get any type of additional warranty from Amazon?

No... I made the experience that Amazon Germany often just sends out a replacement when an article is defective a few days after delivery. They never fail to impress me with their customer service...
Going through this a second time really sucks. Last week my watch was on the charger all night and by morning the screen had a cyan dot that was dark in the middle and faded to black near the edge of the face. I tried holding down the side button to reset it but it still booted up to the cyan dot.
I started the process last Friday and got a promo code for a new watch. Used the promo code on the Moto Maker website and got the process going. At the end I hit the place order button and I get an error message telling me to call support. Ugh. I didn't have time to deal with it then, but my shopping cart was still showing the watch in it and that there was an order placed. I called today and at first the woman helping me couldn't find anything using the RMA # or the order number I had. When she finally figured out what happened she said the order didn't go through and my promo code was still good. She then tried to blame the error on my web browser.
I have seen news floating around there is currently a lawsuit against Lenovo\Motorola for failure to fulfill their warranties. Is it okay to post information and links on xda concerning the lawsuit for anyone who might be interested?
