Brand new Watchy, right out of the box. Walk through the menu... set time... set network... update firmware...

If you try to do "update firmware", get as far as "connect to a bluetooth device", but your iPhone or computer never sees it and never connects to it - you're done. No timeout. No error. No way back. Only thing you can do is open the case, pull the battery and reconnect it again.

That issue was closed but its still a problem as of 29jul2022. The solution of "disconnect from the phone/laptop device" only works if you actually got it to connect in the first place.

Which also wipes all known information like the date, time, network credentials etc.

just a note "Add BLE connection timeout #180" should fix it... when it will be accepted, merged, released and flashed/used on the watchy
