Bangle.js 1 - Cannot access settings

[espruino-discuss2]

Posted at 2023-09-14 by fparri

I have the latest stable 2v19 firmware, but I can’t access the watch settings. When I click the menu item, the wtach freezes before the menu shows up. I have tried resetting the phone, deleting all the apps and reinstalling them, but nothing works.

Has anyone else had this problem and knows how to fix it? :)

You updated the firmware, but have you updated all your apps as well?

I just tried here on a Bangle.js 1 and it works great.

Assuming you have updated all your apps and it still happens, can you connect with https://www.espruino.com/ide/ and then try and enter settings, and see if it shows any errors?

Thanks for your kind reply, Gordon!

I encounter this error in the IDE while attempting to access the settings:

Uncaught SyntaxError: Got EOF expected '}'
at line 90 col 593 in setting.app.js
...wTapSpot();}showMainMenu();

and the screen gets stuck on "loading..."

Well, that's odd - that error's definitely in Settings but when running it here it seemed to work ok.

If in the app loader (https://banglejs.com/apps/) you go to More... and Advanced Options do you have:

Minify apps before upload (⚠️DANGER⚠️: Not recommended...)

Checked? If so, please uncheck it and click Reinstall apps

Hi Gordon,

That's odd, I agree. Minify apps was unchecked, but I tried removing and reinstalling everything anyways, and I'm still seeing this error in the Web IDE:

Uncaught SyntaxError: Got EOF expected '}'
at line 90 col 593 in setting.app.js
...wTapSpot();}showMainMenu();

Any other ideas / suggestions? :)

I'm still really struggling to reproduce this, either with or without pretokenisation.

And you're definitely updating the apps from https://banglejs.com/apps/ and not your own personal app loader?

Please could you do a 'Backup' from the app loader and email me the zip (if you're happy to do that - it's a complete copy of what is on the watch so could contain some personal info) - I can then attempt to reproduce it here.

Thank you so much Gordon. I can confirm I'm using the official app store. Sending you a backup to [email protected] right now, via WeTransfer :)

Again, thank you! :)))

Same here with BJS2.
Happened after update from 2.18 to 2.19.
To resolve it I updated the apps to latest; uninstalled and installed the settings app. All System settings were gone, but I can now access the settings fine...

Thanks for the backup! Just installed and I can reproduce.

But it looks like you had Translations enabled. I just tested again here - if you enable translations and re-upload it breaks, but if they are disabled it's fine - so it should be easy enough for you to get working again.

@hank could you have been using translations too?

Issue reported here too: espruino/Espruino#2417

Ok, it should be fixed now in the development app loader.

Thanks a lot, I can confirm everthing is working when using English :)

Yes, I used translations.
