Charge 3 grey screen

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

My screen background has turned grey with many vertical lines, making the clock face difficult to see.  I have tried multiple 15 second resets, but nothing seems to be working. Does anyone else have this problem?

Hi there @Nonixskis3, welcome to the Community Forums. Thanks for the details provided in your post about the grey background and vertical lines on your Charge 3's screen and for taking the time to fixing it. 

 

In order for me to better assist you with this, please confirm that you've followed the steps below as described in the help articles:

 

  1. Check in the Fitbit app if your Charge 3 is still syncing, if so, try changing the clock face to a different one by following these steps : How do I change the clock face on my Fitbit device?. The steps are done through the Fitbit app, do not worry if you cannot see anything on the screen for this process. 
  2. Please confirm if you've restarted your device by following the steps from this help article: How do I restart my Fitbit device?

 

I'll be around, keep me posted.

i cannot find the invoice for that charge 3, but i really dont care, it is SO difficult to use and be sure you are tracking exercise, gps fails offen, cycling cannot be strartet from the app, only from the not logic selection on the charge 3. You have so bad rating everywhere, you do not listen to the customers??
