That's good, hopefully more will be getting it soon... Cheers

I went into Wear and checked for updates and it came right up. That was about an hour and a half ago.

Dumb question. My watch is LTE but I'm only connected via Bluetooth for now. This is not for my phone, correct?

One small enhancement that I noticed is that you don't have to navigate to the last page in order to "Close All" running apps. There is a small "Close All" bubble on the initial page.

Rec'd in Australia

Got it in eastern US.

I received it yesterday for my watch 4 classic

Mine didn't notify me until today. Just told it to install. Didn't seem to break anything (but haven't used it yet). It did the typical restart into the loading firmware screen (gears), rebooted, startup stuff/etc. After that, the "Galaxy Wearable" app on the phone asked for an update. So I approved that. Everything still seemed normal.
And then, when I woke the watch up again to play with it, it popped up "Updating Watch" and "copying update". A second update??? Waited for the download. Then it asked about updating now or overnight, I told it go ahead, and it went through the whole thing again??? Reboot, gears, progress indicator, reboot, startup. I have never seen that behavior before.

Maybe your update fail...
Check if you are really on new "numbers"...
*#1234#
Or look into About Watch...
Best Regards

It really must have been two.... looks like I am on an even newer version than what is listed here. Now on R890XXU1GVK7

New official htc U11 system update (2022) available! Has anyone updated already?

Hello everyone,
yesterday (January 4th 2022) I got a notification that there is a new system update (3.31.401.1) for the U11. The notification states system improvement. The size of the update is 403.64 MB. My current system software revision has the same number as this update (3.31.401.1) and is from 2019.
My mobile is running on stock firmware and is not rooted. I have not updated the phone.
Has anyone besides me got this notification and updated yet?
What will this update affect?
Will this update remove the discontinued preinstalled htc apps?

Wow I haven't been on xda in a minute ...I also came here to say I got the ota today as well. I pulled it and it shows 80 mb on my end. I'm rooted running stock. So I ain't flashing it just yet...I dropped it in my Dropbox if anyone wants to take a look at it. https://www.dropbox.com/s/32dmepvo4...7.617.2_r1-3.37.617.2_release_554614.zip?dl=0
Any idea why there is such a big difference in size of the update?
Mine shows 403.64 MB.
About time!
Somebody is finally talking of this update!
I've been googling since I first received the notification on january 2, but couldn't find any trace of this update on the internet, to the point I was getting very suspicious, especially after reading of the "system update malware" early this year.
I've yet to update my current U11 (and the notification has been pestering me since then) but I did update a second U11 I'm not using anymore due to a faulty sim slot.
Absolutely nothing changed. Still showing the same android version and build.
Mine is 3.37.617.2 IDK why everyone elses is different but here is the update

Question Unable to update to One UI 4 in Galaxy watch 4

Hi,
I have followed the following steps to change region to use Samsung pay. But no matter how many times I've restarted or cleared cache of wear os app, I couldn't update the watch to One UI 4 that was recently rolled out.
Steps used to change region:
[Guide] GPay in unsupported country (Yes, India too)
Okay so after having tried several guides, apps hacks and what nots, I couldn't get GPay to work here in India. However after some more fiddling around I ended up getting access to rather easily than expected. I'd straight away get to the steps...

Be happy that you haven't updated. My watch4classic has updated and there are too many bugs incl Calendar complication. and AoD being screwed by Samsung for all custom watchfaces.
Is there any further updates rolled out? I'm still stuck in the same state without updates

I don't have the phone to test this update. But Samsung is really doing commendable job with updating so many of its phone lineup to let user taste different flavours of Android.
I know hasty decisions may lead to buggy software but I would say let us give Samsung a chance to improvise the taste of Android.
It's even beating the very maker of Android in delivering software updates.
Soooo... I got the update today... and I must say that this definitely feels better optimized than Android 12, there's still a little lag here and there when playing a game and then switching to something else (multitasking) however this definitely feels better, great job!
How's the ui?lagging?
In the US, no update yet.
Stil laggy?
Might be slightly less laggy but I wiped it after the update. But still not great.

Now that it's possible in OneUI 5.0, try to disable RamPlus and feel the smoothness

It'll come

General US Watch 4 Non-LTE Update R860XXU1GVK4 with Nov 1 Security Patch is out.

MY US based Watch 4 Non-LTE just received the U1GVK4 update today 11/11/22 - I again checked for updates for my AT&T LTE Watch 4 Classic, but there's no update available. It is still at the U1GVH2 release. Nothing new to report with U1GVK4 so far, but this is likely an update to fix the bricking issue that some experienced with U1GVI3 "A power operation-related stabilization code has been applied."

Uggg...just read that even the new update that fixed the issue is causing same problem for some...be careful peeps.
Mine is working JUST fine...think I'll hold off.
I installed with no issues. Did get a scare at first when the Samsung logo came up about three times before it went on to boot. Also took a bit longer to boot and setup. Once it did, all was well.

Fingers crossed.
Mine working 100% after this update.
Mine also working after today's update, I did charge my watch to 100% before starting the installation process and after installation my phone did boot loop twice that scared the hell out of me, then I immediately connected it to charger just to ensure watch has enough charge left, but luckily as soon as i connected it to charger the watch booted normally...phew!!!
Just updated my watch. It is bricked. Screen is black, pressing any of the buttons does nothing. Had 70% battery before the update.
I think I'm done with Samsung for good. What a shame.
If some1 was able to recover from this state, please share.

Happy to hear. Truly.
Bricked mine! 100% battery prior to update.
NOT updating mine. It's working fine, so why bother.
Mine is force installing so wish me luck!
edit: Gave me a heart attack because it bootlooped 3 times but it thankfully didn't get bricked
LOL, mine did the same thing. Today I had an issue with charging. The watch just refused to charge even though it says it was charging. I rebooted the watch and all is well.
