LG Urbane 2 on verizon

Anyone get AW 2.0 on the Verizon edition? I had bought the LG Watch Sport and had issues with getting it on the Verizon network (basically couldn't get Message+ to work even though it was installed on the watch). So I returned it and got the LG Urbane 2 thinking that AW 2.0 was already available. Apparently they were wrong on the Verizon forums....
[LG Watch Urbane 2] Bixthor:
Hi,

Someone in reddt reported today the update on w200v a few hours ago, but he don't posted any detail. I'm waiting too for the upgrade.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] shazam2793:
Looks like that person is in the UK. Hopefully it'll get released in the US soon (or maybe a work trip to the UK...)
[LG Watch Urbane 2] Bixthor:
I have searched in many forums and webs about w200v and nothing about aw 2.0. He is the only one who has posted that he has received the update. We only can wait about it. Anyway, i love this smartwatch. :D

That is the identical file as we got in June to sideload.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] sfortin:
Is there a sideload available for the W200V

Does anyone know if there is a sideload of AW2.0 that works for the W200V (where NFC/AndroidPay works) or if there is a OTA being worked on for the VZW model? Thanks.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] corrado85:
so... most US W200a unlocked users are SOL?

no way to sideload the fw upgrade?

New update.

I received a notification for a new update today, I was already on AW2.0, which surprised me, so I transferred it from my watch to the computer and uploaded it to AFH. The update.zip is here Update. for anyone who want to download it. I have not gone through the file nor have I applied it to the device. I have been working on various projects on this device mostly regarding kernel, but progress is slow. Apologies if this has already been posted.

I got the recent update I think last week. It seems like a bunch of candy to me. The looks are sweet but glitchy. The file that was in your quote, was that the previous image before this latest update? I'm looking to revert back. Usefulness is a huge zero. I have the AT&T version.

I am currently on 2.0.0.166998750
[LG Watch Urbane 2] nigelhealy:
I sideloaded that June version we got, it worked fine. I got an OTA a week back, let it upgrade, works fine.

Yes W200A.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] Grumps:
Anyone got newer that 1 August security patch level?
[LG Watch Urbane 2] Jaws4God:
I am thinking about getting the AT&T version of this watch to work with my V20 (H918) variant... can you tell me your thoughts on it? Thanks!
[LG Watch Urbane 2] jinkerz9430:
To me this is the best smartwatch i've ever tried. Great baTtery life, loud speaker, can use a sim card with it, it has android wear 2.0 , has nfc to use android pay, waterproof, heart rate monitor is among the best ones (again this is only my opinion) i do exercise 4 times a week running. Honestly this is a great watch to buy in a $200 budget. Mine costed 198 on ebay brand new and still have warranty. If you are going to use the watch just for... Having a smartwatch, then dont buy it, now if you want to use the 120% of the features on a smartwatch, then you could buy this one. Will post some pics in a few days

Urbane second edition update in may :eek:
[LG Watch Urbane 2] Imranhakro:
Congratulations

Wait is over, Update has arrived:

http://www.androidpolice.com/2017/04/06/android-wear-2-0-now-rolling-lg-g-watch-r-watch-urbane-1st-gen/
[LG Watch Urbane 2] cafe-creme:
Excellent version and much functional on my LG Urbane.

Reset the Watch after this update.

Yes there are slowdowns sometime (play music very slow) with Android Wear 2.

Update from playstore on watch without any problems except for WatchMaker Premium. The application was once again paying (already paid).

Normal solution, wype cache/data on my smartphone and uninstalling the app.

Again install from the playstore on the smartphone and it's good to make the free update.

All Applications must be started to give storage permissions or location.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] marc.knuckle:
Well I got the update. Kept getting stuck on copying account over so I reset both the watch and the wear app. It starts then gets stuck on 'checking for updates'

I've factory reset the watch 3 times now and clear cache and data on the app. I even uninstalled the app completely and reinstalled. No good.

Any help?
[LG Watch Urbane 2] superflysocal:
I just got the update to 2.0 and i already want to go back to 1.5.

Watch is very slow. Google Assistant can't do anything. For instance i use to be able to say call a certain contact. Use to work great. now, it works very rarely. Always fail when i am not on wifi. Almost seem like it goes onto the internet to find my contact (instead of getting it from my phone).

I have home automation set up with a Google home. I tell my watch to turn on master bedroom light and it says ok, turning on 3 devices (it's only 1 light so maybe it thinks that i want to turn on everything in the master bedroom?). Guess what? no light comes on.

Finally, Ok google stopped working. I have to push and hold power button
[LG Watch Urbane 2] olskar:
Yes it is indeed very slow, almost useless :(
[LG Watch Urbane 2] 1st_paladin:
Works well. Did the upgrade and then reset. Love the stand alone functionality i.e. Google Play etc. My phone batt life is improved as there's no need to keep Bluetooth on all the time. Just connect as needed. Also saving batt on the LG Urbane by putting it in Airplane mode and connecting only when needed. So far so good :)
[LG Watch Urbane 2] sudaltsov:
My watch still says 'up to date', no sign of 2.0. Is it me - or many people still did not get the new version? How long can it take to roll to all users? I do not think there is a billion of those watches around... Do not want to mess with the manual OTA loading, thank you.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] cafe-creme:
With the few updates from Google on my Urbane (playstore on watch) since Android Wear 2, there are no more delays and the system responds quickly.

New possibilities are really great. The watch is actually almost autonomous and no longer requires the smartphone permanently.

Autonomy is good for me and my use.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] dazultra2000:
Just had the OTA delivered. Watch is super sluggish right now but I'm assuming it's just doing post-install tidyup etc. Will check it again in an hour and see how it's going. Is it right you can no longer swipe left to get into the menu any more?
[LG Watch Urbane 2] 1st_paladin:
Swipe down to access Screen and Settings. To access the Apps, use the watch button.

BTW how to get the old LG Hiking watch face? It's still in the Apps but can't figure a way to activate it.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] SuperlativeB:
is there any word on this yet? I was on the DEV preview of 2.0 for a long time as mine showed up corrupted but I just flashed back to the factory image. Really hope this isn't getting pushed back more
[LG Watch Urbane 2] nigelhealy:
Yep we're still waiting for the Urbane 2 to get it :(

The problem in this forum is it for 2 totally different devices, the Urbane is not the Urbane 2. The Urbane for AW2 weeks ago, Urbane 2 I expect soon.

Looking at other AW2 devices seems for them you must disable BT on your phone, on the watch go to Wifi and then quickly go into about system updates to trigger it to look. Just tried and no luck yet on UB2. "Soon" and "by end of May" is what Google said but they also its ultimately down to the manufacturer, I'm also wondering if as basically the W200A (in my case) is "tied" to ATT it may also be dependent on ATT.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] jinkerz9430:
my watch arrived today and i went to about system and updates and it is downloading something o.o. what is it?
[LG Watch Urbane 2] mward1995:
Could be a security update. If you just received it, it may be behind on updates.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] nigelhealy:
Chances are it is now on the last security patch I think around December MFD18T having shipped to you with the security update of September MFD18L. You should now be on MFD18T.

Having said that, one of may be the early limited release so one of might be catching the AW2 OTA. To prep to for that do the developer mode changes and read up on here. You''d then capture the OTA URL then post it for others.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] jinkerz9430:
Have a question. have you tried spotify on the watch? i cant make it work in just the watch. it says that it wasnt able to connect. i also tried the spotify wear app made by someone which is on the playstore. however, it does nothing. it does synch my playlist but when i hit play it does nothing.

[MENTION=7013256]SuperlativeB[/MENTION] >>>> This question is for you too
[LG Watch Urbane 2] 809274473lc:
When?

When?

When?
[LG Watch Urbane 2] nigelhealy:
That is a Spotify and AW question I don't think it is UB2 specific. I have never used Spotify. I've noticed guides on Google Play Music being able to cache music into the AW device. Suggest search elsewhere.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] meet2x4:
An LG rep suggested I check with them via Twitter DM today about the Urbane 2. This was their response.

"Unfornately, we are unable to confirm future software update availability on your device, since we are not the one sending updates, I will highly advise you to check with your Mobile Provider for further information. Thanks and have a nice day ahead!"

Left hand doesn't know what right hand is doing? I thought LG controlled the wear updates?

I've tried the beta of AW 2.0 posted by Google but it's FAR from polished. I'd honestly rather wait another month for something that's rock solid.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] mward1995:
LG support has no idea what's going on. 75% of their answers related to the Urbane 2 on their website are incorrect. If you've owned one for more than 15 minutes, you know more than they do. That being said, who knows what's going on with the updates. If it's not here by the end of the month, I'm guessing it'll be cancelled. Hopefully I'm wrong. Had mine for 18 months and seems like the update has been 'coming soon' for months.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] meet2x4:
Doubt it'll be cancelled. The beta showed tons of promise, just needed a few tweaks to be used as a daily driver IMO (minus the missing Google Assistant of course). Reeeeeeally anxious to use it for Android Pay.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] mward1995:
Hope you're right. I haven't tried the preview. Android Pay is the main reason I would like to try the update. Everything else works fine for me on 1.5 and I'd rather not lose double tap theatre mode and triple tap for increased brightness. I use both regularly during runs and before I go to sleep. Apps may correct those issues so I'd like to try AP on the watch.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] nigelhealy:
+1

I got the UB2 because of AP. I don't shop much / places and the one I use has AP and tapping phone to become tapping wrist is just geeky cool. The Apple Watch can do it now.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] roebling:
Compared to an Apple Watch, the LG Watch Urbane 2 and it's new sibling, the Sport, are last year's and this year's top-of-the-line gaming computers, and the Apple is a TI calculator.

Regardless, I think you bought the wrong LG. The Watch Urbane 2nd Ed. LTE has no NFC chip, that I could find. Sell it and get the new model, the LG Watch Sport, it's got everything.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] mward1995:
It does have NFC, unfortunately just not 2.0 yet.

Android 2.0 FAQ from Google.... item 14

"Which watches will support Android Pay functions yet?

Android Pay will work with NFC-enabled Android Wear watches such as the LG Watch Sport, Huawei Watch 2,*Tag Heuer Connected Modular 45*and LG Watch Urbane 2nd Edition LTE. More Android Wear watches with NFC are coming in the near future."

https://support.google.com/androidwear/forum/AAAAI6hwIZU5v_b7oHHsy0/?hl=en

Also a picture from a teardown of the watch showing the chip....

http://www.ewisetech.com/Device/Sma...(W200)_id2317/Part-Collection/Substrate-10996
[LG Watch Urbane 2] nigelhealy:
Funny as I loaded up AW2.0 DP and I turn NFC on and off in settings.

AP could be installed but it bawked about failing the test probably as DP not official.

I didn't stay on AW2.0 DP, I went back to AW1.5 as AW2.0 DP rendered the UB2 virtually useless at times, but at least I could play and learn what the near future will be like. I hope its much better tuned then the DP version.

The UB2 vs LG Watch Sport, there is about a factor of 2 in price, and their specs are very similar. I think its a more optimised chipset, smaller battery, a twirling button and senses the ambient light. I didnt feel paying double was worth it.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] SuperlativeB:
for sure BS from LG because they're not selling the sport so it is possible they'll cancel it just to keep their other watch " superior" which is total bs and this was my first and last AW watch. Its just not worth it , I'd rather get a cheap chinese one with full android or just some random ass thing and replace if it breaks rather than have this expensive gaudy huge watch that does totally nothing despite having all the hardware it needs.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] roebling:
Nonsense
[LG Watch Urbane 2] nigelhealy:
Utter rubbish.

Every potential LG Watch Sport customer would see the dropping of upgrade support for the LG Urbane 2 as a sign of that expensive $350+shipping+tax Sport as a future dinosaur. If they weren't thinking that now, they'd be pointed to it by forums and reviews. If you drop a recent product your current product becomes a mud brand failure.

I have tried the AW2 DP and I can see it needed time to improve, delaying, is doing us a favour. A degree of waiting is not a bad thing.

As to other devices, they have their pros/cons, I currently run a Sony SmartWatch 3 (SW3) and the UB2, and they have their pros/cons. The SW3 is easier to see in strong sunlight, the UB2 is a bigger display to operate, and other differences.

I would be disappointed if LG don't release AW2 soon on the UB2, and the loathing of LG going back on a statement would then persist into everything else I'd consider buying and everyone I ever could influence. The $ loss to LG of us being p*****d would far exceed their cost to release.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] jinkerz9430:
I..... Cannot make spotify work on AW 1.5 ._. Has anyone tried it on AW 2.0 preview? On AW 1.5 it keeps saying me connection failed (i have tried factory reset, cleaning data and cache, uninstalling and reinstalling, unpairing and pairing, wifi or intertet via bluetooth.)
[LG Watch Urbane 2] nigelhealy:
I don't use Spotify. The upgrade to AW2 is very easy, downgrading back to AW1.5 is very easy.

Try for yourself.

https://developer.android.com/wear/preview/downloads.html
[LG Watch Urbane 2] jinkerz9430:
Are you suggesting me not to use spotify? Lol. Thats one of the apps i use daily. And come on... I hear that there still some issues on that preview so.... Maybe one of the people who are currently on that preview and use spotify can give me the heads up of whether it works or not. I have been talkimg to spptify too about the issue
[LG Watch Urbane 2] nigelhealy:
Nope. I'm not suggesting to cease using Spotify. I'm suggesting, when you are in no particular need for your UB2, to upgrade to AW2, try Spotify, and then learn that experience. AW2 is a totally different experience. So learning, when you can cope with the UB2 being laggy from UB2, is a useful exercise.

As to your ask, well you are in the forum without a wealth of replies.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] jinkerz9430:
Is heart rate monito working fine on AW2. 0? I do exercise daily and i use it.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] nigelhealy:
I'm suggesting to try it. At different times we each can tolerate different reliability. I tried it twice and ISTR the heart rate monitor worked similar AW1.5 vs AW2.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] jinkerz9430:
Lol you are forcing me to try it out! You could have downloaded spotify and see if it opens... ?. Now i will do it then.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] nigelhealy:
I don't use Spotify. All the best music was written centuries ago, modern stuff is non talented noise. I store all of it in my head.

My Watch just needs to be reliable and last long time between charges.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] jinkerz9430:
are you on AW2.0?
[LG Watch Urbane 2] nigelhealy:
Nope. I tried it and was laggy. Waiting for official release.

I suggest AW2 DP just to test how you like it.

I tend to rely on my UB2 weekdays and less so on weekends so I tested AW2 on​ weekends.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] jinkerz9430:

[LG Watch Urbane 2] senectus:
I should be getting mine in the next day or two, I cant believe 2.0 still isn't out for it yet....

still it'll be a lovely upgrade from my SWR50 regardless i suspect...
[LG Watch Urbane 2] jinkerz9430:
I mean.... In my case the watch is very responsive. And i see some reviews about HR monitor not been even close to accurate, but i have been testing a treadmill for the past 4 weeks and this is as close as accurate as an smartwatch can get. When i put my hands on the treadmill it shows my Heart rate. Typicially 140-160 BPM running at 10KPM. , and when i see my watch, i get the almost the same result. sometimes 1 or 2 higher or lower numbers than what i get on treadmill. GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME! . Also, as i said it is very responsive. And it has 2 things i love a lot even though i love the other things about it. But when you press the middle button 2 times fast, it goes into theater mode , and when you press it 3 times, it boost the brightness to the maximum until you turn the screen off manually. :P Nevertheless, it is not worthy to try the preview of 2.0 since you will get that warning sign at the beginning, which i dont know how to remove. I relocked the bootloader and it still there. Oh well.. Im not intending to resell it. :cool: . also the 2.0 preview tends to lag sometimes (REally bad). I do hope that if lg does in fact released 2.0 , they dont remove the pressing 2 times and pressing 3 times function. Because they are outstanding!
[LG Watch Urbane 2] senectus:

[LG Watch Urbane 2] jinkerz9430:
Lol at least is not cancelled. Lets give it another month. For the time being. Play with my the features you have now. I mean yes i liked the 2.0 preview since i could use the keyboard on it and actually answer to people through the watch and also tons of other great things. But i wouldnt like an OS that is full of bugs either. (also that i liked the 2.0 preview doesnt mean i liked to unlock the bootloader and now get the message that says unable to check for corruption... Which i still dont know how to remove lol)
[LG Watch Urbane 2] senectus:
Mine just turned up about 10 mins ago!

damn she's a solid "manly" beast...

That charger is super dicky isnt it.. falls off easily. I wonder I I could make a decent mount for it.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] jinkerz9430:
IT is not half bad hehehe :P mine hasnt lag a single bit on AW 1.5 latest update.

About the charger, they sell this stand : https://www.amazon.com/Artifex-Char...6201854&sr=8-8&keywords=lg+urbane+2nd+edition

I dont buy it because well, i dont need to use the watch when it is charging so. But also my magnet is strong, sure, with enough force it will move from the charging port but usually it connects magnetically by getting it close enough to the pins. so once they are connected im fine with it. Aslo some people clain that the LG URBANE 2nd edition has an unique charging/data port .. however i see that the 1st edition has a the same amount of pins and a somewhat similar form to it. soo. chances are that it will also work with the 2nd edition. IM going to check further into that
[LG Watch Urbane 2] jinkerz9430:
Now, whether the base itself fits or not is another thing. But maybe by removing the parts that dont fit we could be able to use it.

This is the 2nd edition one: View attachment 4166570

This is the normal urbane one: View attachment 4166571

See? 5 pins. same exact sizes on the pins. only difference is the shape of the body of the charger.

But really, I was expecting this to happen anyway so I shouldn't be surprised I guess.
[LG Watch Urbane 2] daywiz:
I think with Urbane LTE 2nd edition being the only other LG with the NFC & LTE ( im not considering the Sport), they are still fiddling around it. The amount of bugs and criticism that regular Urbane got with the 2.0, most people said its almost made the watch useless. I rather have a watch which is functional than a half-baked buggy software. While a month or more of waiting is almost guaranteed, I have my doubts about the size of LG's development team dedicated to a platform that hasn't really taken off. The fact that UBs use a slightly older chipset hasn't really helped. Fingers crossed on the update finally coming!
