I installed 4.2 last night and everything seems to be working normally. However, when I try to use the Radio app on cellular I keep getting the message that says I need to connect to cellular or WiFi but I'm on cellular. I've tried restarting the watch and toggling the cellular on and off but that did nothing. Then when I came back in the house and my watch connected to the iPhone the radio app started working again. Has anyone else experienced this issue? If so, do you have any trouble shooting suggestions? I've tried rebooting the watch and toggling cellular on and off with no success. I'm hoping to not have to send the watch back in.
Got a tip for us?

I am experiencing the exact same issue......so you're not alone. I'm not sure if Radio app was working properly on 4.1 because I just never tested it. Today, after updating to 4.2 last night, was the first time I tested the Radio app by turning off my iPhone and turning off wi-fi on the watch. I have LTE and am able to place phone calls with the watch just fine. But Radio app reports no internet connectivity.
It's not listed in the Release notes for 4.2 b1, but I'm hoping it just a 4.2 beta issue and will be resolved in an upcoming beta. Too bad I didn't test it on official 4.1 release before updating to the next beta
20 - 30 minutes tops. Maybe make sure the phone screen is awake. I'm not sure if that matters, but I always make sure both devices are awake
