So I powered up my Bangle.js (v1), went to update apps and set the clock...

Got a message on the website that I was running old Firmware, so I updated that using my iPhone...

The watch restarted, I push button 2 to open setting, pick settings... I get a black screen (apart from the battery indicator, the Bluetooth (off) and an up indicator, if I press up it takes me back to the menu, any other options... Nothing....

Have you tried any of the ways to reset and deleting the code on the watch, described in the docs?

As above - it sounds like the Bangle is ok, it's just a software issue. It's possible that Settings -> Utils -> rewrite settings will fix it. I'm working on making the automatic now.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
