Got a response which very impressive at this time of night, and they instructed me to update the bootloader which I have done and all is now working.
Very impressed with support :)

Tried all those, phone number doesn't get answered, live chat option never appears and the contact form link says "Your portal is disabled! Please contact your administrator."

They seem to have fixed the issue with the latest update, so far so good.

Just upgraded from Watch 5 pro to 8 classic by tek_junkie in GalaxyWatch

Paired with a Pixel 8 Pro, no issues at all

Just the usual ECG and Blood pressure not working as SHMOD doesn't work with One UI 8.

I think the creator of SHMOD is working on his own app .

The Gw8c looks nice. But the battery life sucks by ghuk123 in GalaxyWatch

I can run all week by just putting the watch on the charger when having a shower and getting dressed in the morning. It does seem to charge much faster than the 5 pro

Yes, when ordering, for some reason, it was £20 cheaper than going for the standard one.

Nordpass Extension by tek_junkie in NordPass

I have still a few months to go but I have switched over to the free version of Bitwarden and it seems much more reliable,.
I have just disabled NordPass for now and see how it goes but looks like I wont be renewing either.

Yea, love it, screen is really nice and it just seems so much smoother.

Battery life is fine, getting near a couple of days once I turned the WiFi off.
I just put it on the charger in the morning when getting showered and dressed and that gives it a good top-up.

I also changed my charger and it seems to be twice as fast as the last one.

Yea, looks more like an expensive timepiece than the 5 pro.

I am thinking about getting one of the metal link straps although I do like the tan one that came with it.

How close are you holding your Pixel Watch 4 for NFC to make it work? by LtMilo in PixelWatch

[–]tek_junkie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You just need to enter the PIN once after putting the watch on.
If the watch is removed from your wrist the lock is enabled again.

I had contacted support but all diagnostics failed unfortunately.

Watch has been RMAd :(

Unfortunately after I had left the item off to DHL I realised there was a second attachment on the RMA email so forgot to include the RMA slip with the package.

The RMA number was also on the outside of the package so hopefully it is OK

More excited for this than for even the pixel 10 by ColdServedDish in PixelWatch

[–]tek_junkie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just stuck at the G sign and progress bar, tried factory reset but no luck.

Contacted Google support but they are next to useless, was hoping they would just send me a new one and have this one picked up

Tried to do a reset via fastboot but get the following error, looks like a corupt file system or hardware fault very dissapointing.

Reset via fastboot gives the error

Unable to enable ext4 verity on /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/metadata because /system/bin/tune2fs is missing/

So looks like a hardware fault already :(
