I have an LG G Watch R, and today it's now inviting me to "charge the watch to update to M1D65H".

 

Annoyingly, even though I knew that Wear 2.0 release was probable today, I forgot to grab the watch-charger before I came into work this morning, therefore I can't actually charge-and-update.

 

Has anyone else with an LG watch this update?  Is it "Wear 2.0" ?

Yes.  I upgraded mine (LG-R) a couple of days ago ...

Nice.

 

Typically, I had the charger on me yesterday "just in case", but the watch didn't offer the update....

reddit users say that M1D65H is just the February security patch for Wear 1.5.

 

@kiwi_64, how did you get the update on your watch?

Confirming M1D65H is just the February security patch for Wear 1.5 (I updated this morning). Please, @kiwi_64, let us know how you got the Wear 2.0 update.

Got the Wear 2.0 update on my LG Watch R early this morning, so if you have one of these, might pay to check for updates.

'System is up to date'; sadly. Having said that, a] it's normally a staged rollout, and b] I'm not in NZ currently, which may make a difference...

No update available here either...keeping my eyes peeled however!

The collective wisdom of Reddit is that apparently if you continuously tap on the "big green tick" for 30 seconds, it'll force the update.

 

I tried, and yup - "charge watch to update".  Now I'm stuck on the "Downloading" screen; but I guess that's progress of a sort....

 

[Updates:]

 

Update #1: It is downloading, but quite slowly; however, as all Reddit owners of LG Watches are probably doing this at the moment, I'm sure the poor update server is being hammered!

 

Update #2: Apparently you can download the update manually and "sideload" if you're feeling brave.  Vague instructions on that reddit link.

 

Update #3: Success!
