Gadgetbridge: Pebble problems (notifications, firmware update)

[neXyon]

Hi,

I have the original kickstarter pebble, which currently reads:

• Firmware: v2.4.1
• Recovery: v1.5.4
• Hardware: V2R2

I also have the most recent Gadgetbridge Version from F-Droid (0.10.1).

I haven't used my Pebble for a while as you might tell from the firmware version, but I want to use it again mostly for notifications now. But exactly those are not working in this configuration unfortunately.

So I decided to upgrade the firmware and downloaded the two files here: https://github.com/Freeyourgadget/Gadgetbridge/wiki/Pebble-Firmware-updates#pebble

• 3.x-migration_v1_5_v3.8-mig10.pbz
• Pebble-3.12.1-v1_5.pbz

When I try to open the migration file on the phone, I get the following error:

Pebble Firmware v1_5
Hardware revision mismatch!
Unable to install the firmware: it doesn't match your Pebble's hardware revision.

Any suggestions/help what I could do? Or is the original kickstarter Pebble not supported anymore? :-/

I don't have the same device you have, and what I am telling you here is an information already available on this page.
For your hardware version, the correct firmware file url should be contained in the JSON file available at the address:
http://pebblefw.s3.amazonaws.com/pebble/ev2_4/release-v3.8/latest.json

The two urls are:
https://pebblefw.s3.amazonaws.com/pebble/ev2_4/release-v3.8/pbz/3.x-migration_ev2_4_v3.8-mig10.pbz
https://pebblefw.s3.amazonaws.com/pebble/ev2_4/release-v3.8/pbz/Pebble-3.12.1-ev2_4.pbz

In case you want to move to the latest available version of the 2.X firmware, this is the url:
https://pebblefw.s3.amazonaws.com/pebble/ev2_4/release-v2/pbz/Pebble-2.9.1-ev2_4.pbz

Gadgetbridge will refuse to install a firmware which is not meant for your hardware (as you already experienced). In case these urls work for you, please let us know and we will update the wiki.

Perfect, that worked, thanks!

For sake of debugging I updated to 2.9.1 (getting a crash message from "simplicity" but it worked anyway). With this firmware gadgetbridge worked again (the stuff in the Debug menu I tried and notifications at least). Then I installed the migration (same crash of "simplicity") and the v3 firmware. All good.

Cheers!
