Issues started with GPS related problems… Then issues with backlight started occurring… Now it won’t turn on anymore. Can’t sync, tried the reset, but a smiley comes up and nothing after that… I regret ever buying this model! 😑 Need some help getting the watch up and running again…

Help! I have this same issue! I had to restart 3 months ago when it unexpectedly died. Two days ago, it shut off again with 70% battery. Plugged it in and tried to restart, but it just vibrates. The smiley face comes up for a second, but nothing else happens.
