MetaBoot mode : sensor intermittently disappears

smila001

I am having a really hard time getting one of the sensors to connect. ( MetaMotionR+ )

I have set it into MetaBoot mode.

I have the IOS app open.

For a few seconds, ( having the MetaBoot Mode ) enabled, I can see a MetaBoot entry under the devices.

If I click on it, the update gets stuck at 0, indefinitely. 

On that note, I also monitor the power level of the sensor. At times, in the app, it gets stuck at -72 and does not change. Hence, I am inferring that the BLE module stoped sending out signals. ( I've had the sensor plugged in for a few hours, so I know the battery couldn't be the issue. The cable is also fine, as I charged my other meta sensors with it )

( Hence, I started looking at this page: https://mbientlab.com/community/discussion/110/no-connection-after-firmware-update )

The app that is references to try and re-flash the firmware is no longer in the app store. The same is true for the firmware link that seems to be down.

What do i do? Troubleshooting and attempting to fix this is beyond limiting!

Is your board stuck in MetaBoot mode?  Under normal circumstances, it should revert back to normal operation within 60 seconds.

Was the board ever working before?

Hey Eric. The board was working in the past. What I did is i went and got a Andorid app, and tried to connect to it to flash the firmware, and all went well. I can now use it. Seems that the IOS app does not share the same functionality.
