Hi all , does anyone know why my charge 2 is displaying (! )This symbol on the screen and won't do anything else . It's pretty much dead in the water. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hello @Dkinahan, good to see you have joined the Fitbit Community. The exclamation mark is an indication of a Firmware update that might be stuck or was not successfully installed.
First make sure your phone is a compatible device. To see the latest list of supported devices, please go to http://www.fitbit.com/devices.
If your phone is compatible try to do the following steps:
- Verify that the latest version of the Fitbit app is installed on your device. the latest version for Android is 2.48
- With your charged tracker nearby, open the Fitbit app.
- Tap or click the Account icon located in the right upper corner of the screen
- Tap or click your tracker tile.
- Tap or click the pink Update Tracker button. You'll only see an option to update your tracker if updates are available.
- Follow the prompts onscreen and keep the tracker close to the mobile device during the update. If the update is slow, don't remove your tracker from your account as a troubleshooting measure.
If the tracker keep failing proceed to try the following:
- Turn your tracker off and on again using the instructions in this post: How to restart your Charge 2?
- Try the firmware update again. If it doesn't work, reboot your mobile device and try the update again.
- Try the firmware update again. If it doesn't work, on a different mobile device or computer (if available) log into your Fitbit account and try updating your firmware.
Keep me posted how it goes, I'll be around.
