New to this thread and want to share about my experience and what I plan to do. I have had the galaxy 4 classic over a year (bye warranty) and while in warranty I had this issue this April. The repair center said this:
Original Problem:
SOFTWARE UPDATE - MOBILE OS UPDATES - INCOMPLETE SOFTWARE UPDATE
Problem found:
WON'T DOWNLOAD SW/PRL
Solution:
S/W UPDATED - PASSED ALL FUNCTIONAL TESTING
So basically they reset the watch. I know that doesn't work since I have done that multiple times before I sent it in and it didnt fix it. Basically they flashed new firmware. Now my watch is doing it again. They want 80$ to repair. I want the firmware and have talked with many at Samsung. They won't give it out. You can get firmware for their phones but not watches it seems. I have found a link to some (not from Samsung) and will be flashing it soon when I have time (in a week) then I will report back. I could brick the watch doing so and if that happens I will buy a ticwatch 5 pro. This is my third Samsung watch and have had issues with each one.
Update:
I have fixed my sudden draining issue through flashing the watch's firmware and after 48 hours of the watch figuring out my usage patterns it now is at 94% when I woke this morning. I charged fully before I went to bed. Before it was showing 50% in the morning with the same routine. I will post a video to YouTube of how I did the change. I also allowed the watch to fully update after the flash. My channel is YouTube.com/@nrdtech. It will be my first video of many more
