I have a Fairphone 5 running the latest build of Murena's /e/ OS, and I can't get it to pair with my Moto 360 Gen 3. Every time I try to pair it via the Wear OS app, the process times out and I get an error that says "Cannot complete setup" at the top, then "can't update your watch" and it tells me to reset.

I had the watch paired with my Fairphone 4 running iodéOS, but it took some trick involving pairing with the Chinese and US-based versions of the Wear OS app in a specific order. I have a copy of the Wear OS China app, but trying to pair with it gives me an error saying that I can't use it outside of China. I've been trying to find the guide I used for this originally, but literal hours of searching has turned up nothing.

I'm about at my wits' end here. Any thoughts on what I can do get this damn thing working with my new phone? Even unpaired, I can get wifi debugging working, if that will help!
