It was previously just in a bootloop and didn't want to turn on the screen at all. Managed to somehow boot it up today and factory reset (AGAIN) and connected to my less used Google account just to be safe (less data to sync).
Previous problem I had is still there however. When I click the menu button even lightly (not holding down), it opens up Assistant. Voice commands haven't crashed the watch yet but if I click on Assistant settings or anything else, screen will turn black and it won't reboot. Only way to reboot it to place it on the charger and hold down the power button.
I also have a logcat from Bluetooth debugging. Log ends when watch shuts down after clicking anything on Assistant. Started logging right after startup and all I did was install some updates which took a while.
Nothing extraordinary at the bottom of the log stands out to me but I'm probably not as good as some of you at reading logs. There seems to be several errors occurring.
Logcat: https://gist.githubusercontent.com/...3adc70142c5126ad2237d3ba19c9908a88177/log.log
Currently I use the watch while completely avoiding using the menu button. I open Play Store and everything else using shortcut button for Assistant on watchface.
I did all the updates on Play Store (WearOS, Google etc) but problem still persists.
Any help is really appreciated.

For those few unlucky people that are having problems with the AlienAqua 1.0 theme on Cyanogenmod 4.2.8, there is a solution without having to manually update.
First off, the problem:
After phone reboots, the home screen (.ahome) keeps crashing and you need to Force Close it via the popup that appears. It crashes both in landscape and portrait mode, nothing seems to function at all. It even happens in Safe Mode.
The solution that I found is as follows:
Power off the phone
Plug in USB to phone and computer
Power on the phone (not in safe mode...power up normally)
Press Menu to unlock the display
Press the Force Close button when the home screen crashes
Slide the display out so it goes to Landscape mode
Press Force Close once again if promoted
This should give you a functioning home screen with the AlienAqua 1.0 theme. Now open up CMUpdater, and download/reinstall the CyanogenMod-4.2.8. Let it install, and when it reboots, you will be back to normal. There is no need to have to go through the steps manually to install it, the automated method with CMUpdater works like a charm.

Today I updated Google and noticed that saying "okay Google" from the home button screen (whatever it's called, the screen shown when you hold the home button for a bit) doesn't work anymore. It works from any other screen from the home screen to the lock screen.
I searched around but found no solution. Anyone have any ideas, or is experiencing the same thing? Could this be just an issue with the update and require another update to fix?
Edit: And now it's mysteriously working again, with absolutely nothing changed or done on my end.
Did you ever get this fixed? Ok google has been very buggy for me. I have a Google Home and wondered if it was messing it up.
So I noticed after the update I couldn't unlock the Axon 7 when it had its screen off and it was plugged in (the feature obviously doesn't work at all if the device isn't plugged in). The way I solved this was to go to the voice activity on Google and I paused (or deactivated) it. By doing this, you essentially reset all Google Voice settings (not the history). Then, just long press the home button which brings up the assistance which will ask you to give it permission to listen to you. It will then ask you to say "Ok Google" three times (as if it's the first time you're using it). When the trusted voice option is toggled (which is automatically will do it for you), the issue is fixed and the phone can be unlocked with you voice with its display off and while plugged in.
Hello,
There is this weird problem that came out of nowhere. I usually sleep listening to music and sometimes I weak up with the phone battery completely drained so I have to charge it. Today after charging the phone some parts of the system lost their functions. These are the problems I discovered so far;
-The home(LeEco) and the multitask buttons are not doing their main functions even though the phone registers the touch inputs from the buttons and they light up. The home button can even lock the phone on long press but won't take me to the home screen.
-I have the swipe shortcuts button enabled but it won't take me to home screen or multitask screen. The "go back" option, however, is still working along with the back button. I can go to the home screen by swiping or exiting apps with "go back" button.
-I can't download apps from google play store even on wifi with auto-update enabled. it's stuck on download pending.
-I can't open the notifications management from notifications.
-Connecting the phone to my PC does not show connection options.
-Screenshot doesn't appear in the notifications. The notification area remains empty.
So far these are the ones I discovered. Do you have any idea what causes that and how to fix it? I didn't do a factory reset yet as I can't transfer the data to my PC. Eui 5.9.026S I haven't had any of these problems up until this morning.
Thanks in advance.
Backed up data using an app and factory reset solved the problem.
The actual problem seemed to be:
1-The multitask screen virtually opens but it appears behind the background aka it doesn't actually appear. I think because whatever app that is responsible for it does not have the draw over other apps permission(?).
2-The notifications are there but does not appear in the notifications bar menu. I made sure by using the a notification history app. So it might be notification access permission problem(?).
Hi Guys, After a random problem one day that included missing apps on the home screen and controller not functioning at all -- I did the following:
Memory card in card slot removed and re-inserted (32gb set as storage and many apps transferred to it freeing up the first 16gb). Rebooted shield and could now find apps , but controller was still only working via USB lead connected to Shield TV. Previously i had experienced similar problems and this had worked before, along with holding controller buttons for 20+ seconds to reset it.
Next step was:
I fully charged the controller as this had proved to be a problem a few times before when having strange controller issues. THIS WAS WHEN I REALISED the following also;
1) Had to input all account details again for Google account, Nvidia Account, You tube account, Steam account etc.etc..
2) Home button no longer works as the home button and also cannot double click to get the screen showing all open apps. It does make audio clicks as normal AND does show the streaming options/picture saving options when you long press it, (so the button is functioning of sorts.) I have since realised that the back button next to the Nvidia light button now works like the home button but you cannot double click it to show all open apps.
3) When I click on the google icon at the top left of the home screen next to the KB icon for voice searches. It does not work. ( though you tube speech searches work fine) It does accept searches after pressing the Nvidia button though when on the home screen.
4) The developer options in the settings menu were always on previously but, now it says that these options are on but "unavailable for this user" when pressed and are greyed out.
5) on/off sensor button on the top of the shield no longer works. (this is very similar to my wife Shield upstairs but hers is a 2017 model. She uses the remote or controller to turn off via the settings menu.
So......thinking of just resetting the Shield to factory settings and starting again but wanted advice before doing this and perhaps adding to the issues???
It seems to me that given all the different problems this is the only way??? My gut is actually telling me that it's an update that has happened and it has confused the 2017 model with mine???? or am I just seeing GHOSTS???
Any constructive advice would be appreciated.
I was trying to get rid of bloatware on my Full Guard with ADB and I went a little overboard; needless to say something broke, and now it's almost bricked.
When I start it up, it loads the Wear OS animation, but then the watch face flickers black every second or so. Pressing the main button toggles between a black screen and my blinking watch face, and my touches are being registered/shown on screen but are ignored. If I hold the main button for a second a grey background with Google's microphone symbol flashes, and if I keep holding it the power dialog appears - and works - as normal. It also goes to sleep after a while, but that's about all it does. I tried connecting it to ADB wirelessly, but it wasn't even connecting to my Wi-Fi (I confirmed with a LAN scanner). I can't connect my phone to it via Bluetooth either.
Is there a way to enter recovery/fastboot mode - without ADB, obviously - from which I can do a factory reset? If so, what button combination would work? I found no guides online, probably because it's not that widely used, and got no comments on Reddit... Any ideas?
