Victron Connect Pairing Issue (Android 15)

Hi @RoarPowerNZ

When connecting to a Cerbo, there are other problems with the bluetooth stack on the Cerbo that are causing problems. This should already be much improved in the beta firmware version.

With kind regards,

If I turn on “Beta release” on my raspberry pi units, will i get the firmware you are referring to?
If so, i have about 6 i can do, and test the bluetooth process and report back.

Hi @RoarPowerNZ

When you turn on “Beta release” on the raspberry pi, you will indeed get the firmware that should improve the bluetooth behavior of the GX/Venus firmware.

I am also having an issue pairing a Pixel 8 with Android 15 to Smart Shunt and Smart Solar. It appears to be the same as others reporting here, including the video robnelson posted on March 26. I do not have TopDon or Eebms “Solar Guardian” on my phone. I turned my old phone, a Pixel 4 with Android 13, back on and it is still able to connect to both Smart Shunt and Smart Solar. I have seen elsewhere that Is there a specific issue with Android 15?

Not generally, seemingly only in connection with pixel.
