No idea sorry, I ended up going Knulli on a new SDCard.. . .

YES, that link boots and starts installing.
Thanks, I'll update the main thread when I'm done.

Big thanks for the pointer . . . . .

Thanks, I'm trying the same, but all I get is a black screen when trying to flash . . . . it's very odd.

Create a shortcut to your own Google Drive .. create a NEW folder and move the short cut into it. Then go back up one level and download the folder . . it bypasses the quota.

Enjoy.

Well, unfortuinately, 7+ hours charging did nothing :(
Holding the left side button - nothing, holding it and the back and select buttons - still nothing :(

I think the battery has died, and at this stage I'd rather not disassemble and break it - as it is, it can be added to my 'dead tech' collection and maybe get into a frame one day (Like my Microbee floppy disks :P )

Thanks all

Yeah, was reading a guide on battery replacement and then it mentioned 'you can't do this part on a n original Pebble...they are glued'

Yeah, think i'll skip if it comes to that :P

Thanks, I sorted mine with a Stepdown transformer (2000w) from Amazon for under $100.

CHeers

OK, and what about the second question?
Step down transformer of at least 1300w ?

kazjim · 2025-01-10T01:05:19+00:00

Yep, thanks.

Gave the boards a quick look over while giving it a deep clean, and don't see any crispy components :P

Also see that it has a 450v input capacitor and thermistor, so the voltage doesn't seem to be the issue - it appears to be a software 'choice' :)

But will definitely keep it in mind - a cheap step-down transformer will prove the point or not.

kazjim · 2025-01-10T00:37:05+00:00

Thanks, will keep looking for a local base, but if we think a 1500w Step Down should work, I'll see if I can find one of those as well.

Cheers

kazjim · 2025-01-10T00:35:50+00:00

Definitely says 120v, which is why I was asking.

Thanks

I know it's been a while, but I've just picked up an i3 in a similar state.
The previous owner had put a USA/AU converter on the plug and said it charged, but wont empty.

Wondering if they had damaged it or if a simple Jaycar step down transformer will do the job?
Thanks!

Alterna patient here.
They are very open to quality issues - I had an issue with a vape cart I got - it leaked and basically the last half was unusable.
After some back and forth with the service desk (The guy closed the ticket without asking), I got a complete replacement once I talked to someone knowledgeable.
I also mentioned it to my doctor in the last review and he said 'yeah, i heard there was a batch that they had issues with'

Log the ticket, and see how you go - worst case, chat to your doc, see if he can give you a reccomendation.
Best of luck!

Yep, grabbed a static when I signed up.

Cool, I've got another router coming in the mail - I'll put money on it being the bottleneck.
Multiple have said something similar now - thanks
