cannot connect to dev bridge on firmware 27.30.5.8

[StevieGUK]

 Since updating to 27.30.5.8 my clockface app has stopped working and I cannot connect to the dev bridge to try and reload it. The Dev bridge just says "server connection error". Do I need to factory reset? If so how do I do this?

You shouldn't need to factory reset.

Is your device charged properly? It needs more than 25% to use the bridge.

You could try shutdown, restart.

Let me know how you get on.

panic over! Yeah my battery was at 20% Good call 🙂

Also my app stopped working, looks like you guys changed '.innerText' to '.text'. in the software/firmware. 

After changing this it looks like it working. 

Thanks,

Steve

Thanks Jon! 

Is there a developer news letter or a twitter feed or something I can follow so I can keep track of changes?
