This scenario is not a default use case.
To update firmware on a Thingy that is in bootloader mode, follow the steps
below.
-
To put Thingy into bootloader mode, power it off and then on while holding the
button on top of Thingy
The device starts advertising with the new name "ThingyDFU". The MAC
address is always incremented by 1 when a Thingy device is in bootloader
mode.
-
To enter the Scanner view if Thingy is in bootloader mode and not connected
yet:
- iOS: Tap Target.
- Android: Tap the blue DFU icon.
All Thingy devices that are in bootloader mode are displayed in the
list. Their default name is "ThingyDfu".
-
Select the device on which you want to run DFU. The process is initiated in the
same manner as in the default method.
Important: When Thingy is in bootloader mode, it is impossible to connect to
it using the Connect button in the main menu of the
app.
During the DFU update, you can pause and resume the DFU update from the point when it
was stopped.
