I bricked my Sense

[DanHunt]

The firmware update clearly stated, don't start until it is connected to the charger and has a good Wifi connection.

I ignored that, updates don't take that long I think to myself. Battery charge is good will not take all day.

WiFi connection, I don't want my watch on the company network. 

The Sense is relentless looking for signal. That is going to kill the battery, where was that OFF button.

That is how I bricked my Watch.

Hi @DanHunt - what is on your watch currently?

You can chat via the Fitbit App, click profile photo, Help & support, Contact Customer support, may be they can restore it, if it's not catastrophic.

Nothing. It no longer works, and it no longer charges.

@DanHunt - if it doesn't charge it could simply be a charge cable fault or clearing issue. Have a look what to do in this link. How to check charge cable - Sense/Versa 3 won't charge, won't start or blank screen

Thank you for your reply.

My cable is new and in good condition.

Chatted online with a nice fellow at Fitbit. Accepted a replacement watch at no cost. Resolved!
