Blue Vivo X5 cannot with Victron Connect cannot connect to Blue Solar MPPT 100/15 nor 75/10

I cannot connect with my new cellphone Blue Vivo X5 (BT: 4.1, A2DP)
with VictronConnect V5.17 to my Blue Solar MPPT 100/15 fw 1.46, BT interface fw: v2.23 and bootloader V1.10. The same connecting to MPPT 75/10


I can connect with cellphones Blue Life Max (BT: 4.1, A2DP, LE) with VictronConnect V5.17 , Blue Pure View (4.0, A2DP) and Blue Life One X2 (BT: 4.0, A2DP).

Vivo X5 get stocked at 60% and after a time it cycle to 20% goes to 60% and so on.

Just the phone I will ever have in the future is this one :-(

Any ideas?

Hello @tkmbe Bluesolar MPPT does not have bluetooth, so are you using the dongle or is it Smartsolar? Is location turned on on the phone? Apparently a requirement in newer Android software versions.

Yes it's a Smart Solar, sorry.

Yes I've activated location if not it would not find the device..

I see the device, the pin is right, but stocks as noted at 60%...
