Got mine to work, apparently it was not charged completely. This one seems
a little tricky, but one I got it charged and updated it, it has been
fine. I also now make sure if I see any updates I do them

Hi @MarreFitbit. Your instructions worked for me ... thanks! Heart

Best Answer

Your solution works but problem is this issue keeps on happening every time I charge the band. And everytime it turns dead after charge, won't respond on key press, won't light up on connecting to charger. Only press and hold and reset works while connected to charger. Question is , is this a software bug that will be fixed eventually or a hardware fault that needs a replacement via warranty?

THIS.  Mine is totally dead. Attempting to charge it does nothing except become a fire hazard with how hot it gets.  No lights, no vibrations. Will be returning product.

I had the same problem however I called support and they had me do a hard reset which is you put the Fitbit on the charger then you press the button on the side for 8 Seconds and you should see a 🙂 and that's it it'll work fine
