Charge 3 is constantly vibrating and screen going on and off

All of a sudden the Fitbit keeps vibrating then the screen keeps switching between click face and the notification screen. Had to take it off. The charge is at 42% so it’s not battery life.

I've given up and have now purchased a much, much cheaper wrist monitor so if this breaks down I won't be so pee'd off.

Same thing has been happening to my Charge 3 too. I have Blaze and Charge 2 also but they are working fine.

Software is bad too, I have been facing so many issues with its sync and tracking.

Its sad that there is no solution to this problem.

I am having have the same issue. I have tried to reset (I get the smiley face) without success. I have tried this method, but I never get the vibrations described and it never resets. The device is even buzzing between the home screen and notifications while it’s on the charger. It was a gift for my birthday last August, so it’s less than a year old.

Why there is no solution to this yet? This problem has been existing for very long now.

Best Answer

I had the exact same problem yesterday.  Now it's just completely dead, despite charging it. I've tried the instructions for restarting it, but nothing happens.

I charged mine 10 minutes ago, battery is 72% now.

 

My fitbit has its own heartbeat now, vibrates rapidly without display, I am waiting for it to die and stop vibrating.

 

On the same hand, fitbit is not having its support service active on mail.

I also have this problem.  I tried the restart that was described and each time I either get a smile face or a horizontal line, but am not able to change the face display.  Mine is a little over a year old.  Could you please help?

This happening to mine now. Have tried all the reset techniques as mentioned and still doing the same thing. Rather poor for a product that’s only 8 months old

My fitbit starting doing something similar.  The screen is blank and when I push the side button it just vibrates.  I put it on the charger last night for about 20 - 30 minutes and it started to work.  This morning it is back to just vibrating the app cannot detect the device. I just got the device in January.

I contacted customer service (go to your dashboard, then help) via online chat. Turns out mine was still under warranty (they have a 1 year warranty) and they are sending me a new one!

Best Answer

I tried this method. Now progress bar is stuck on screen and it won't operate at all!

Have plugged it back into charger but now seems completely unresponsive.
