Blaze Screen flashing

[Kemp18]

So I woke up and noticed my blaze screen is constantly flashing as if its showing the old school TV static screen. Any idea on how to fix this issue? This is the first time I've experienced this.

Yeah my screen is also been flashing for the past 2 days and I've tried to reset using the buttons at least 10 times, but it won't reset either.

for 15 second till fit bit sign come on screen

[HarrisonFLow]

I have the flicker in problem since this morning and no matter how many secs I hold left button and right bottom one, it doesn't restart. I think it's a hardware failure at this point.

Same here, won't restart.. I hope Fitbit reaches out to solve the problem as it seems like a hardware failure.

Hi there,

i read a post about a fit bit blaze screen flickering like an old TV screen and to fix the problem hold in the left and right buttons for 10 -12 seconds. i have tried this twice and the screen is still flickering, does anyone have any solutions? Thank you in advance.

[PNR]

Frankly support was useless to me other than suggesting me to buy a new Fitbit device. I'm thinking to move to apple watch if I have to buy a new device instead. Fyi...holding the left and right buttons doesn't do anything to me.

[Dazzler1269]

Thanks PNR. Yeah i am getting that feeling after reading some of the other posts. To be offered a discount on a new one only lends itself to the problem happening again in the future. I will see what happens from here.

[MartiQ]

I just held the buttons until it stopped flashing. It took longer than 12 - 14 seconds.
