    Beyond Frustrated with multple Carriers, What to do?

    Also Google Fi might be a good solution for you. Google Fi uses whichever network is best. That way if at&t works before at home and Verizon is stronger at work you get the best of both services.

    Charging to 78% and then stopping

    Well just gave in and ordered gen5. I've read lots of negative reviews about battery life how long should it last? Obviously I should have returned my gen 4 but just assumed smart watches didn't last a day unlike conventional watches that lasted years or decades.

    Factory reset didn't change behavior. If anything it's worse. Three days in a row my watch went into power saving mode in under 3 hours of use.

    Charging to 78% and then stopping

    My Fossil watche is charging to 78% and then stopping. I have changed the USB A charger and that solved the problem for about 2 days and now the problem has continued. https://photos.app.goo.gl/zcD6Fp4f9cBqkTxA8

    OK google not listening

    Found the solution. Don't understand why but something in accessibility was conflicting with Google. Appears to be an HTC problem... Anyways turning off all access to all apps in accessibility fixed it.
