Posted at 2024-07-08 by @thyttan Hi! Have you checked out the getting started thread at https://forum.espruino.com/conversations/341830 ? Posted at 2024-07-08 by user157973 yes i read already . watch comes with battery empty or enough battery to start watch? .i click button for few second and more but watch dont start. Posted at 2024-07-08 by @gfwilliams Hi - please can you try a different USB charger, and leave it to charge for several hours? It has been known for some USB chargers to shut themselves off with the Bangle.js's cable - and ensure that the cable is the correct way around (it pulls itself on with the magnet). Also, try holding the button down for ~20 seconds, just in case the device has got locked up.
Honestly, it depends. Recently we have been trying to send watches out with at least a 50% charged battery but if the watch has been sat around for a while in a distributor (or customs) there can be problems. We've also very recently got a new batch of Bangles and found that a hardware change that meant that the GPS got powered on at boot in some devices, so that could explain why yours was flat when it arrived. That only happened for ~2 weeks though and then we shipped a software update to fix it, so if you install a 'cutting edge' build once it's started that should solve that problem. We test all the watches before sending them out and it's extremely rare for them to get broken in transit, so hopefully it's just something like an issue with the charger.

Do you mean like: Because to start the watch you need to long-press (press and hold) for 1-2 seconds Posted at 2024-07-08 by user157973 thanks for help Posted at 2024-07-08 by @gfwilliams The watch itself shows a charge indicator when you charge it and it's on, however when it's powered off (black screen) as you're seeing, there is no indication for whether it's charging or not. If the battery is flat as it looks like it is, you may need to leave it for 1-2 hours of constant charging before you turn it on - have you tried that yet, or have you only given it quite short periods of charging so far? Posted at 2024-07-08 by user157973 i mostly charged half and hour, i will try to charge 2 hours then reply thanks Posted at 2024-07-08 by @gfwilliams Ok, thanks - also, where did you order the Bangle from, and how long ago out of interest? I don't see anything in the Espruino shop that looks like it might be you. Posted at 2024-07-08 by user157973 i bought from adafruit industries Posted at 2024-07-08 by user157973 adafruit is only store to ship my country Posted at 2024-07-08 by user157973 i charged 2,5 hour but still cant turn on watch( Posted at 2024-07-09 by user157973 i clicked button wrongly ,i found in this post solution https://forum.espruino.com/conversations/382504/#16818310 Posted at 2024-07-10 by @gfwilliams Phew - glad you got it working, and it was as simple as just having to press the button a bit harder! |
