Since 5.0.2, my 360 blinks constantly when charging. Anyone else?

Edit: Happens with Watchmaker faces, not stock.
 
Haven't seen this particular phenomenon , but there seem to be charging/display issues with the 5.0.2 update. Mine displays correctly, goes to dim mode, then turns off, comes back on in the bright mode, then stays there. Blinding! Using a downloaded watch face from Play Store. I love the face so I put up with it!

I'm having the same issue with it blinking. Also charging is VERY slow now. I put it on the charger at 11pm last night. At 6am it was at 45%. I'm not sure where it was at 11pm, but I doubt much lower than that. It's now after 10am and its at 83%.

I just did some tests after seeing another thread. I switched to a stock face rather than watchmaker and the problem is now gone. Watch dimmed immediately upon switching.
I then went back to watchmaker and problem came back.
 
Anyone notify the developer of watchmaker?

I use instaweather for mine and no problems.

Same issue here, might be a problem with watchmaker as I switched to a stock watch face and it stopped.
 
It does appear to be an issue with Watchmaker watch faces but if you do want to keep it on a Watchmaker face and have it in dim mode while on the charger, there is a workaround. On your watch, go into your Settings and into Developer Mode. Under first option, "Stay Awake when charging", set it to Enabled. This will keep it in dim mode on the charger.
 
Watchmaker said the issue has been fixed with a new version currently in public beta. They said it should be released publically early next week.
 
I'm not sure if my issue was created by the update or not, but when I put it on the charger it recognizes it and puts up the charging screen for about 30 seconds. Then the watch face shows back up briefly, and the charging face comes back. Right after all this happens the light on the charging cradle goes out and the watch stops charging. However, the charging clock still gets displayed even though the watch isn't actually charging.

Other times you put it on the charger, and it charges like normal. It's very odd, but I cannot deal with it anymore because I'm tired of having to go days without my watch because it just won't charge. Then, randomly it will decide to charge for a couple days.
