3 years ago I don't know if I have seen this. But when JBD links to bluetooth then it will not let you connect with another device until disconnected by first device. It just hangs on waiting for bluetooth. Be sure you have not left android app connected. Or if want to use android jbdbms.py must be stopped.

The only way around that seems to be to wait for a timeout/disconnect on the BMS side.
On the cellphone app there is a button on the login page that allows you to 'Fix' the bluetooth. Looks like it's just pushing a reset command to the module. That would be a useful feature to have, with a little logic that hits reset after XX service restarts.
that will of course cause hell for the App if someone was actually using it, so maybe not automate it.. but have it available as a -r command appended to the service line. That way every time you start the service and a connect is attempted it will kick over the bluetooth. Or some other non invasive way of checking for BMS availability. though that might cause a race condition between a command line launch and a service launch of the code.
