Zenwatch seems horked after restart - resolved

[bbtkd]

I noted that since recent app updates (ZenWatch, Android Wear, WatchMaker), my watch has been using more power. I did a restart, then noted it wasn't connecting to my phone. Checked the watch and it keeps popping up with alternating errors that Google play services and com.google.process.gapp have stopped and all I can do is hit OK. I managed to eventually get to settings and try another reboot, but same results after reboot. So I tried a reset, but it does not seem to get past the errors to do the reset. Looks to me like I'll have to send it in, unless anyone has an idea.

Whew - got it working again. With the looping errors requiring acknowledgement, it would only occasionally give me a second or two between errors to try things, such as a device reset. Unfortunately, errors kept the reset from making progress, and if I allowed the screen to time out, the reset aborted. I eventually hit OK for about 5 minutes solid, eventually giving reset time to get past the point that the errors would interrupt. Took a while to get things set back up after the reset, but now all is well again. Something apparently got corrupted.

Google Play has been really wonky on 2 of my devices (phone and tablet). Android Wear just updated too and needed a little slapping around.
