  Hi fanoush and Gordon,

  thank you both! I managed to install the new firmware using the android app. :)
  The step-by-step instructions you posted was what I somehow didn't find on my own. I just read about users installing a new firmware after experiencing the same issue multiple times here but they never explained how they did it in detail. Thanks again for the super quick replies!

• Bangle.js 2 won't boot after firmware update

  Hello,

  I just unpacked my Bangle.js 2 today and tried to update the firmware using the App Loader. Everything went as expected until in the middle of updating the firmware the bangle.js got stuck in some kind of loop. I made a video for reference:

  https://youtube.com/shorts/HpxSYEv4ErE?f­eature=share
  First part of the video I am not pressing the button, in the end I am pressing it and try to boot.

  The problem is that I can't escape this loop, no matter how long I press the button (and believe me I tried really long). Furthermore, I can't connect to the App Loader or IDE anymore. So I don't know how to reach out to my bangle.js.
  If I release the buton while it stacks the ====== bar I can get onto one screen saying

  DFU START
  BTN1 = REBOOT
  

  but don't know what to do with it.

  It would be totally fine if there would be a way to just reset everything. Scince it is new I didn't do any personalization except for setting it to the right time. :)

  I am also not really experienced in this kind of field. I want to use the bangle.js to try out some things myself and learn. So it would be really nice if your answers are kinda noob-friendly.

  I already read through this thread but it does not seem to be the exact same problem, or am I wrong?
