Just updated Apple Watch Series 3 LTE to 4.2 now watch constantly restarting

[David.Snider]

Hello all!

Last night my Series 3 LTE updated from 4.1 to 4.2 and now I'm paying for it. Prior to the update the watch worked perfectly. Post update the watch has become a paper weight. It cycles through reboots every couple of minutes without warning.

I performed several hard resets, played around with airplane mode, didn't use backup images, and after many attempts was able to finally pair it with the my iPhone X (it would reboot mid sync so I would couldn't sync successfully after the hard reset).

I do not work in a hospital setting and I have had no issue until the update. Called Apple Care and they want me to send it in (4 weeks without watch). They mentioned that 6 other people have reported the same issue and I wanted to see whether there are any others out there? Any possible fixes?

I am experiencing the same issue. Sent mine off to AppleCare for repair and they said they couldn't replicate the issue and sent it right back. Nevermind that it did it for the Genius Bar tech before we sent it off...a little frustrated at the moment over this issue

Still doing it?

My Series 3 is doing the same thing. I have had to uninstall it about 10 times now since the last update.

Please remove all apps from the watch using the Watch app on your iPhone. Then re-add 1 Apple app and see if it still restarts over and over.
