Zenwatch 3 getting aw 2.0 now - Asus ZenWatch 2

heres hoping we are next! http://www.androidpolice.com/2017/05/16/android-wear-2-0-now-rolling-zenwatch-3/

They also said Google is holding up the update for the ZW2 due to some final bugs which they stated..... Asus didn't got info from Google about the ZW2 yet. So I bet we have to wait a few more days/weeks
Source: https://twitter.com/ASUSUK/status/864492209919361025 (scroll down a bit)
Edit: Asus made a mistake, it still isn't rolling out to both watches :/

The update is not rolling out... Asus UK made a mistake, even all tweets about this have been removed.

So Asus ZW2 will be the last to get the update??

This is terrible. They promised an update for both watches by the end of the month. It's the 17th. They're running out of time. I'm extremely hopeful that they push this update by the end of the month.

Why is this "terrible"? I want the update too but it's not like they said we are never getting it. We have 14 days off the month left. Let's wait till the 31st before we start complaining

Worst company I have ever seen...

Can we start complaining now?

Nope. You have to wait until midnight. They promised it by the end of the month.
After midnight you can create all the threads complaining about it you want, though.

IKR. It's way past midnight now, so they are officially late delivering the update. I'm just hoping it comes soon. I might have to try webwear just to keep myself satisfied until asus does.

What build are you running? Is that annoying screen rotation issue still present?

I asked Asus customer support, they say
"The development team did not provide us with an exact date for update releases however they should be out during late 2nd quarter to early 3rd quarter. They are working their best to finish testing and apply the updates so they can be released for Q2."
So don't expect the update to come anytime soon.... Don't believe any timeline Asus gives you, you will only get dissapointed when they break their promise again. One day we'll get the update, maybe.

Any way for me or a moderator to change the title? After original post Asus retracted the comment and deleted the tweet. It makes this post I made feel clickbait-y

Constantly Restarting

My prime reboots at least 3 or 4 times a day, whether it's browsing the web, using google maps, or using any of the other apps. It stalls, then restarts. It's running ICS.
I really like the Prime, had no defects, but I'm going to have to return it because this is totally unacceptable. Is anyone else having this issue?

You should probably do a factory reset to take apps out of the equation.

So after using it for a couple of hours, I'm still getting multiple random restarts with the latest update I'll do a factory reset anyway before I bring it back, but quite honestly why should I have to my spend time trying to work out what works and what doesn't? if I can't use the device for its intended purpose, I can't see any sense in keeping it.
It's really a shame, I wanted to like the TP, on paper it has everything I was looking for in a tablet. The reality though is it doesn't live up to expectations. Random restarts are just not acceptable when you're trying to compete with the iPad, it's not good enough.
I was in the same boat and the update yesterday did not help.
There's another update floating around that was sent out by an Asus tech to try out. I installed that one last night, too and have not had any problems since then.
I think the light is at the end of the tunnel!
Why create a new thread for a subject that has an Official ASUS thread at the very top of this General forum.

Just now I checked.
No update yet.

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 ?

T-Mo Marshmallow update?

Anyone hearing ANYTHING about this update? Not even on T-Mo's software update site is it mentioned. I realize the phone has only been out for several weeks, but shouldn't there even be a mention of it? The G4 and G3 updates are complete - I can't imagine it will take much longer - I hope?
With carriers if you are anticipating an update you will turn old and gray...i've learned the best bet is to not think about it and be pleasantly surprised when it releases
if you get any phone outside of a nexus and expect timely updates...that's your fault (not you specifically...just in general)

I can't argue wit that, but T-Mobile has been pretty good about being transparent with updates. Oh well....
As far I know there is still a problem with phone not sending or received mms's on marshmallow and tmobile.

I don't think LG has announced an update for the V10. We'll have to wait for them first...they said it was coming in the next 6 months if I recall correctly.
Sent from my LG-H901 using Tapatalk
Isn't the V10 basically a G4? So if G4 is done, v10 should be shortly.
this is just me but i think they have something planed for the v10 they arent saying, i mean the second screen has so much it could do but it just seems like they didnt finish it. has anyone actually realized that there is a setting to set a background image on the second screen it lets you crop the back ground and everything just doesnt apply to the screen. even sync is different than what i'm use to i mean it doesnt kill the battery like on my note for i never left it on it was a 4 hour difference in battery life now its like 15 to 20 minutes different.
LG said something about early 2016 for the V10 update. Will try to find a reference.
considering newest rumors say that g3 update is comming mid dec. and v10 was originaly slated for late 2015, early 2016, you can expect it(going off rumors and leaks) that it'll happen around end december throughout jan.
i have tmo. and my g3 was updated to lolipop earlier this year around march.. LG said they want to get marshmellow out faster then lolipop was.

LOLOL .... Sarcastic & Snarky ... I likey.
Although funny, here's my take on this topic.
I'm no longer caring when it'll come out - I'm getting used to it the way it is, and knowing Verizon, they won't change all that much in it anyway. Sure some improvements, but all in all, it won't be like the old days when you'd spend 3 days fixing and tweaking the whole phone all over again as these days you're finished in a few hours ... only to start wondering when the next update is coming.
I do hope you get the BT issue straightened out before hand. I've nothing wrong with mine so it might be more of a BT settings issue to get it to work right over an update.
I send email to LG with same questions, no answer yet
Did everything what LG told me to do with Bluetooth in our previous conversation with them,no luck and I change my phone by 14 days return policy same issue with the other one (BT)
I wouldn't plan on Android M until around April. That's when we got Lollipop.

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?

That's probably build M6E70C which is still Marshmallow as this build was released not too long ago
You're right. Seems to be a routine security update. Damn I was so hopeful. Back to hurry up and wait.
I couldn't have put it better than a random commenter on an article about this.
"By the time this update arrives google will have announced androidwear 7"
Good news, the update could arrive any day now.

Asus told me the update is rolling out late Q2 or even the beginning of Q3.... Bet it will be delayed again when we hit Q3.

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.
