Can't update watch.

[Fatgit]

As per title can't update my blaze. Bluetooth is working phone and app working as in updating my steps etc. . No other problems. Basically I haven't used it for a while and the watch is still on 17.8.200.3 if I try to update via app it starts and the watch changes to update bar bit then fails. How do I fix?

@Fatgit if your now seeing the update bar on the Blaze that means the update started. My thoughts would be to try again, as long as the bar grows with every try you should be good. It might however Take several tries.
The other thing to try would be. I use a different phone or computer to update

Yes already did that and... well on the 6th or 7th go after restarts and well just luck I guess it started. Not sure why it's so dodgy other commands were going between the phone and watch instantly and every time. Strange! Thanks

I'm glad your up. As to why for me it usually has been a bad Internet connection.
Some updates have taken one try with 2-3 minutes to complete, then once I think it took about 12 restarts but with every restart the line got bugger.

Hmmm well my internet was fine unless it was fitbit servers I guess. And the bar was not filling at all until the last try anyway I thought at that stage its the Bluetooth not the internet but maybe it's both I guess.
