We follow the idea of Wang [21] to show the existence of global weak solutions to the Cauchy problems of Landau-Lifshtiz type equations and related heat flows from a $n$-dimensional Euclidean domain $\Omega$ or a $n$-dimensional closed Riemannian manifold $M$ into a 2-dimensional unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{2}$. Our conclusions extend a series of related results obtained in the previous literature.
