Re: OSTC Plus Charging Problem

My problem from last year has expanded a bit. I bought a 3.6v Sanyo battery, matching the specifications listed in the post about OSTC+ batteries. Charging for this and another rechargeable battery wasn't working properly (when placed on the charger, it would turn green, show a % and then 30 seconds...

Re: OSTC sport battery level

I have had the same issue with a replacement rechargeable battery (bought after deep discharge on a supplied battery). I am not sure if the problem was with said replacement so bought another 14500 3.7v battery. This one seems to be slightly longer than supplied battery and the case will not close f...

Re: OSTC Plus Charging Problem

To follow up on this: I have used the 3.7v batter that was supplied by HW and have bought a new one as well. Neither are showing charging when on the charging pad. It goes green and blinks, the screen either remains off (original battery) or shows the % without turning yellow (new battery). The comp...

Re: OSTC Plus Charging Problem

Noted, as I said I'm using a 3.7v as the 1.2v doesn't work.

Re: OSTC Plus Charging Problem

Hi there, I've got a 3.7v battery that was supplied by HW. It has previously taken a charge so I presume it's fine. I tried using an alternate (1.2V battery) and the computer turned on but placing it on the charging pad turned it red (so the charging element seems to be detecting it). Computer was s...

OSTC Plus Charging Problem

My OSTC Plus isn't charging at all. When placed on the charging puck the puck will go solid green or flashing green but the battery doesn't charge. I have tried a couple of different USB plugs (including ones that have worked previously). It's on the latest firmware (3.17) and I have tried a new rec...

Re: OSTC Plus Bluetooth Pairing problem - Android

Hi Matthias, I tried again resetting everything. This time HWOS did connect and so did subsurface. I've tried rebooting the phone and OSTC and it seems to still be working so that reset does seem to have worked. Thank you for the instructions!

Re: OSTC Plus Bluetooth Pairing problem - Android

Thank you Matthias, I tried again and managed to reset the bluetooth radio. The OSTC shows up with a different name (matches the model #) but there's no change in behaviour. I reset again, restarted the phone and the Chromebook. This time the phone gave a communication error the first couple of time...

Re: OSTC Plus Bluetooth Pairing problem - Android

Hi Matthias, I translated the post but have a problem: I selected 'reboot' from the reset menu. The play icon appeared but didn't get the bluetooth icon to appear. I tried pressing the right button vigorously and second time I tried the left button but the OSTC plus just rebooted normally. I tried r...

Re: OSTC Plus Bluetooth Pairing problem - Android

I've tried it with a Samsung Android phone and had the same behaviour. When it's in pairing mode, I can see the OSTC and pair with it, it then shows as connected in the phone but the OSTC doesn't seem to register a connection. Apps like subsurface or HWos can't detect it either. Once it's paired wit...

Re: OSTC Plus Bluetooth Pairing problem - Android

No, HWOS has what I assume is its starting screen - There's the bluetooth button on the top left but nothing appears in the drop down. Subsurface also doesn't detect anything (Although I have connected before and it still shows up as an option used previously).

Re: OSTC Plus Bluetooth Pairing problem - Android

Just an update: After a few more attempts the phone seems to pair and stay connected to the OSTC Plus (shows connected as a bluetooth device) but the computer doesn't seem to acknowledge the connection and neither subsurface nor HWOS app can detect it. The OSTC Plus is now on 3.08 and the Android ph...

Re: OSTC Plus Bluetooth Pairing problem - Android

Thanks Mattias. I tried turning off/on the bluetooth but it didn't have any effect. Forgetting the device in my phone's list of devices seemed to help and it will find it and I can pair successfully. However about 3 seconds after pairing the OSTC disconnects and it won't reconnect. I have repaired i...

OSTC Plus Bluetooth Pairing problem - Android

I've encountered a problem with pairing my OSTC plus with other devices. It was previously paired with them but I haven't used it for a few months and replaced the battery recently. When I set the OSTC to bluetooth mode it is only visible in my Android phone, it's not an option on either my chromebo...
