I got my 360 a couple of months ago and I had no issues with it at all until a couple of weeks ago. Sometimes it would stop charging at around 60%. Started happening more frequently and then I noticed when it had been on the charger for a while, the display would brighten and then dim and repeatedly pulse like this and quit charging. I only found one reference online about this and it suggested a problem with the internal charging hardware so I took it back to AT&T and exchanged it for a new one under warranty. The new one is doing the same thing so now I am wondering if it is a 5.0.2 issue but I am not seeing any outcry over it.

I am kind of at a loss as to what to do here. Looking for suggestions from other users. Have any of you heard of this problem and can point me in a direction for help? My next step is to contact Motorola but not looking forward to that.

Thanks in advance

Do you have watchmaker installed for faces if so there is a bug in 3.3.2 it should be resolved in 3.3.3 testing beata now this is refering to the bright to dim while charging

Yes I do have watchmaker! I have Facer as well but it has been crashing for weeks now so rarely use it. Will suck to lose watchmaker even for a little while but if that fixes it, then it will be a big relief. Thanks for the tip, i will give it a try.

Theres lots of good others anyways, use the moto connect for now for a custom one. I know its not the best but it still works...

I have the same problem, my watch turned dead , I didn't know WatchMaker was causing this, for the moment my moto 360 is returned (SAV) (alternate.be)

I hope they will give me back a new one :'(
I did a video showing the problem on my youtube channel (lucaspart7) can't put link this is my first post XDA doesn't allow to

Facer is the biggest battery hogger in Moto 360 if u have it installed.

Even if u dont use Facer it still has its processes running in the background.

I too faced this issue earlier but a reset fixed this for me.
