Now we get the new bots from the start. Congrats at the team! ---

Good? I came here to see what is going on, my whole board isnt usable anymore after updating to 5.1.9 all my lights are out. It was responding very very very slow after updating. So incidentally I saw some lights. The battery was around 25% (still green), but i charged it fully but the problem is still here. what should i do? If i turn on the board, the led display works but all the squares are off. It’s not even slow responding now, it’s not showing anything. Can you please help me out?? ---

After I turn on my Bluetooth on my iPhone, I see the mobile blue icon on top and the lights turn on? Then it initially was responding with 10 seconds delay. But now the lights are responding good, after 3 mins of waiting. If i turn the board off, the lights work again. What is going on? It seems ok now? ---

Same issue here. After updating to 5.1.9, the board lights won’t light up. Not even during startup. I’ve tried: - Full reset - Force reinstall of firmware (had to use the double-tap method from the app) Everything else is working normally except no lights. ---
