Hi all,
My BMV 700 stopped working yesterday after it promoted me to upgrade the firmware to 3.11v. Before then, I did not have any issue with it (Although I had not connected it to a bluetooth dongle for a very very long time - over a year.)
The situation has made the BMV 700 completely unusuable. When I try to install the firmware it get stuck at various stage before 100% and then fails. I have attached some pictures
Hi,
Keep trying the update, and ideally with another phone if possible.
The design of the BMV is that it cannot be bricked by a firmware update, but it can certainly fail many times before success.
There are additional troubleshooting steps here, please work through them 1 by 1 without skipping any, and it should all come good.

Apologies for the hassles, if after going through those steps 1 by 1, it still fails, please report back for Plan B.
Thanks @Guy Stewart (Victron Community Manager) I followed your suggestion by using another phone and it worked. I was able to get the device's firmware to completely update without issues. Thanks.
I've encountered this situation many times, so I find it very normal.
