I have been informed that there is no way to sideload to this particular watch. Use the cradle to connect the USB to the computer. This appears to be case for the URBANE, G WATCH R, and the original G WATCH. Since this is not a method that Google included, so is therefore not official, still take caution.Ī NOTE ABOUT INSTALLING TO LG DEVICES: /u/ParallelProcess pointed out that if you're installing to an urbane, you must run adb reboot bootloader instead and navigate from there to recovery! Don't run adb reboot recovery like the linked article says, as you won't be able to bring up the menu.

I have not tested this myself, but have been told by multiple people that this worked for them.

u/Whyareallthegoodname stated that if your watch has the TWRP recovery, they can be flashed from there. They are for a older version of Android Wear. Head to this guide and follow the instructions. HOW TO INSTALL AN OTA UPDATE TO YOUR ANDROID WEAR BASED DEVICE: Please check that the link is for your exact watch model first. These files are to be sideloaded to update the watch. I will be keeping an eye out for other OTA links and posting them here as well. 6.0.1 is now rolling out, here are the OTA download links that I managed to get.
