LG urbane, power stuck at 2%



So today i went out and bought a lg urbane smart watch.

Initially when i unpacked it, the battery showed 100%, dropping to 94% after I've been playing around with it for an hour maybe.
Then all of a sudden, the screen went black and i couldn't get it to power on.
I then put it in the charger, an after 1 hour and 20 minutes, it got to 2% :S
i figured it might be confused, due to not having run a full battery cycle yet, so i took the watch from the charger, and went to the movies.
Now the watch have been going for 4 hours on 2% battery (still going), so i thought i would do a factory reset to fix the problem.

But now the real problem appeared! The watch still thinks it got 2% power, which means i cannot pair it to my phone (less than 20%) and charging makes no difference at all :S

Will i have to bring the watch back, or is there a fix?

Edit: sorry i accidentally made this in the wrong section



Setting up LG Urbane with iOS



As we all know the setup process on iOS severely neuters the watch in terms of available apps and wifi being enabled.

I have enabled root and it looks like all the required files are present (wpa_supplicant etc) however icant seem to see how to enable the wifi.

Anyone have any ideas where to look, imagine its an init script somewhere.

SW3 to LG Urbane back to SW3



I started out with the pebble, g watch and then the SW3 and finally the Urbane. Urbane was nice, very good looking, and awesome screen but I had to go back to the SW3. Being able to charge the SW3 with out a stupid pod is my favorite feature. SW3 screen in ambient mode, is so nice. I hated that the Urbane still had the glow affect. Or even being able to see the SW3 screen in direct sunlight. Honestly if you are in the market for a new watch, I personally think this one is still hard to beat. I really hope sony comes out with a refresher, but similar features to this.
