I have an LG G Watch R.

immediately after this update about 1.5 weeks ago that I installed my watch no longer functions as it functioned before.

I no longer get call notifications on the watch. previously when a call came in the watch would start vibrating the caller image would appear and I could answer or ignore from the watch.

this no longer occurs (HUGE functionality loss for me)

also "always on" no longer works. it always turns off VERY rapidly after a few short seconds and you can only turn it on again by pressing the button. no "ambient" mode any more.

and of course since ambient is off (I assume) twist to full on does not work anymore

touch will not wake it up twist will not wake it up ONLY pressing the button.

suggestions? these are simply massively functionality losses to me I flat out would not have bought it if it functioned this way when I got it. what's the point?

I am hoping this is something I can fix. yes I checked android wear no joy. I uncheck and recheck always on and the watch comes on for a second and then goes off again. still have to press the button to make it live again.
