Thanks. I can't do a factory reset after updating, because nothing works then. I might try the factory reset first, then update to 2v25.
What's puzzling is that the problems aren't consistent. They aren't intermittent either; it's just that after a few updates and downdates etc., the problems change. (To me that suggests that a reset might well work.)
I'm temporarily content on 2v12; all I need the watch for is a couple of my own apps.

A string of many "OK" messages while loading the firmware v25, then after it's done, "Uncaught storage updated!" That's a new one; it didn't occur before, when I updated to v25.
But now in v25 the button doesn't work (it says "loading" permanently), and something I can't read is put onto the watch face behind the time display. Those are new problems as well.
I've gone back to v12 now just to be able to see my watch face. No problems there. Everything works (watch app, button, screen, settings, etc.).

New problem: in firmware version 24 or 25, the touchscreen on the bangle.js 2 is unresponsive—partly. I can still operate my watch time by the touchscreen, but after pressing the button and "loading," the screen is unresponsive. Nothing can be scrolled, and nothing can be selected (e.g. Settings, Apps).
If I go back to firmware version 12, the problem goes away and everything works.
Any ideas? Flatten the battery?

Success. Thank you all.
I am not an IT person; the github repo for doztime (bangle.js 2) was created by someone else. I was unaware of the changes mentioned from 7 months ago. When imported into my variant watch code (it changes the start time for the year and the day; otherwise it's the same dozenal Holocene watch face as on github), that code loads from the IDE with the latest watch firmware, which it did not before—why not, being the original question, now answered.
No further issues at this time.

No need to change anything in the repo yet; I'm working on this and will have a response shortly.

What's the latest version of the IDE? (I may have it already.)

This is the github bangle.js2 app that runs the code in question: doztime. But the code isn't likely the problem. The github app runs under all firmware versions. The non-github app with the same "problem" code line runs under 2v12 but not 2v25 when loaded from the Espruino web IDE, which is the only way I know to load it onto the watch.

I've been running 2v12 for a long time, fearing that an upgrade would disallow one homegrown app that loads from the Espruino web IDE via Bluetooth. Today I upgraded to 2v24 and then 2v25. Both declare:
Uncaught ReferenceError: "time" is not defined
at line 1 col 646
...f,res.colour);writeDozTime(time,timeDef);g.flip();drawtime_t...In firmware 2v12, that error does not occur, and the app runs properly, except for showing FIFO_FULL. (FIFO_FULL does not occur with the later firmware versions, of course.)
Here's the catch: a github app that's almost the same runs fine under all the firmware versions. The offending line above is identical to what runs in the github app, which of course is not loaded onto the watch via the Espruino IDE.
So, is something wrong with the IDE, and can I fix it?
Very helpful, thanks. Although changing firmware has brought all the noted problems plus a few more, at some point I will still try what you suggest.
