Shearwater Perdix 2 v100 Firmware

[JFB68]

After installing the V100 firmware, I can not get the computer to download dives to any dive log software, such as Subsurface or SDIs dive log. Prior to v100 I had no issues with either dive log. It will still download to Shearwater Cloud with no issues. I am using the computer linked to my iPhone since that has always worked better than attempting to use my laptop.

Just came looking for details on this… Subsurface is apparently aware of the issue as they have a note on the IOS App Store about not including the firmware 100 fix (yet).

Just updated before a trip and now couldn’t download the dives.

Found the issue here on GitHub:

[Bug]: Shearwater Perdix 2, cannot import via BLE, Unexpected packet size/Failed to read the firmware version · Issue #4552 · subsurface/subsurface

Description I'm observing this fault both on Android (tried first) and then desktop. I've not pulled the Android logs but am assuming it'll be the same problem. The logs are saying [3.084842] ERROR...

Looks like the fix will get pushed out in the next “monthly” release.

So FYI - here's what worked for me in the interim of waiting for the iPhone update: Download one of the "latest" builds for your computer (Mac, PC, Linux) and setup the Bluetooth connection there.

It might take a bit of work to get the build to run as those are unsigned (I know Mac if you have questions about that platform) but you can then use that to download your logs until the iPhone app gets updated.
