Bangle getting squirrely after using recorder

Posted on
  • Hey all,

    Basically it's like the title says, my bangle suddenly stopped sending any data to gadgetbridge after I started recording my morning walk. Syncing the activity data hangs at "starting...", and I'm not getting notifications anymore. Not entirely sure where to start looking for the issue.

    I've been running the nightly version of gadgetbridge (currently a90e1be0e) and I recently upgraded my watch firmware to v2.22 after the last time this happened a week ago. Any ideas where to start?

  • It's possible that the Storage has got corrupted somehow, and that's causing you problems. Or even I guess it might just be completely full and that's the problem.

    As a first port of call I'd probably disconnect from Gadgetbridge and go to https://banglejs.com/apps/ then More... and Backup to make a copy of everything on your device (it'll be faster/safer to do this direct and not via the app loader in Gadgetbridge).

    Then connect with https://www.espruino.com/ide and see if there are any error messages shown on the console when swapping between apps which could help you.

    Pasting require("Storage").getStats() into the left-hand side of the IDE and seeing what it says might be handy too - that'll tell you if it thinks there is free space or not

    It's possible that after you have backed up, just clicking Restore in the app loader (which will wipe the watch and then re-upload everything in the zip file) will fix it for you if there was corruption.
