I have a Zenwatch for some time now, and so far was a reliable companion for my Huawei Ascend P6 with features I come to love, especially the “unlock my phone”.

I never experience connection problems. Sometimes I did not get notifications from the phone (like from Hangouts), but a restart of the watch/phone solved it.

Unfortunately after the last updates (watch system build LDZ21T, Android Wear V 1.1.1.1956917 and ZenWatch manager V 1.6.0.150605) the “unlock my phone” feature is not working properly. More that 2 out of 3 times the phone is locked which becomes a very annoying issue. If I unlock the phone in both Android Wear and ZenWatch manager the message is that ZenWatch is connected, only sporadically disconnected. If I turn on the “forgot phone warning” in the ZenWatch manager I see that the connection is not stable anymore.

I did reset the watch to the factory settings and waited until it synchronized again the aps with the phone, but the problem persists.

Any advice? I would gladly roll back to the previous versions if possible. Now I just have a very frustrating experience.
