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.

I have been having this issue for a couple of days with my Blaze. Battery seems to run down constantly. Let it run down yesterday, fully recharged in the evening. Wore to the gym this morning and halfway through the workout it just started flashing. Nothing would reset it, not even the manual reset with the left and bottom right button. Eventually it stopped flashing and displayed a clock face error. I managed to resync with a new clock face and then it worked late this morning. Then this afternoon I got another battery alert for low battery, despite it only being fully charged less than 20 hours ago, and by the time I had cycled home it started flashing again. Again, the manual reset won't work and it won't sync with my phone. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Wow!  I was experiencing the same issue- tried pressing the buttons for 10 secs and it worked!  Thanks, this made my day as I was wearing the Fitbit with the flashing screen for a few days!

Reboot Reset fixed the flashing screen

I haven't heard anything from support. This is my 3rd Fitbit. I'm done. If you (support) can't respond then I can see it's time to move on to another brand. It's a shame because I liked it and it was helpful with my everyday life, but they are too expensive to be buying new ones every 6 months. And I don't use them in extreme environments.

I have a FitBit Blaze. It flashes continually.

Update

The advice of pressing left and lower right button for 10-12 secs. did not work. Screen still flashing on my Blaze.

Hi Jogger, Have you tried going back to reset as if its  a new device and entering new numbers then holding buttons.Thats what i did to get mune to work again and stopped screen from flashing.

Hope this helps

regards

It worked for me - did you hold it long enough?
Here is what I did:
The fitbit Blaze has a built-in way to reset that will stop the flashing. I
held down the left button and lower right button simultaneously for about
10 secs. The display shifts to TODAY then resets!

Great to hear it worked for you too.

My Fitbit Blaze display started flickering yesterday and I did the reboot which fixed the problem. Happen again today and reboot or shutdown does not fix the issue anymore. I am going to let it drain all the battery and see if that helps or not. Bummer.

[Ebrett]

Oh I’m sorry. I guess I got lucky , shutting it down worked for me so far. Good luck!
