    AWESOME! Thank you. I had already given up on my Versa. Holding the back button for longer than 10 seconds did the trick for me.

    The long hold on the reset button worked in my friend’s Versa 2. I kept left side button down for 3-4 minutes before the blue dot Fitbit logo appeared and now all back to normal.
    Thank you so much for sharing your expertise and providing these very useful tips.

  • @staceyjames9572
    @staceyjames9572 3 роки тому +4

    Thanks for all the tips! I suggest you also check the strap you're using. Once I took it off, it started charging again...the pins must have gotten in the way of the connection.

  • @Alfonzo555
    @Alfonzo555 4 роки тому +99

    What I found which worked for me when my fitbit versa wasn't charging - was to hold down all the buttons until the FitBit logo came up (around 20 secs until it showed) and then I immediately put it on the charger and began to work :)

    • @Rebecca-asdf
      @Rebecca-asdf 2 роки тому +3

      i read comments saying they didn’t hold the button long enough and I think that’s it. Mine was dead like DEAD DEAD 0% in red and everything the screen would flicker when I held the button. I had to do it like 3-5x and then finally the logo popped up and I could charge it. This was literally like 5 minutes ago so I was about to lose hope. Idk why it does that other than because it’s at 0% and has no juice. Anyways if you still have it it’s worth a shot! you have to hold it for like 20+ seconds

    The wife has one with three buttons and said "This isnt working" when I asked for more detail I got 'its not doing anything'.. hard reset and she was at 6.. a few minutes on the cradle and 15. So big thumbs up for helping another husband with '0' details as to the issue.

    I have a possibly dumb question. I've tried to restart it and there doesn't appear to be a button working at all. I'm fairly certain I have a Versa 2 and not a Versa 3 and can't seem to find either. My fitbit hasn't worked in a day or so now and have been unsuccessful in rebooting it though I've tried to follow tutorials. I've tried to clean the charger as well but can't seem to get it going that way either. Help?
