Green light glowing but phone not connected to device

Bolt Setup
21

Just open bolt cloud and login to your account, under devices check weather you have any devices listed over there and check the status of the devices.
if you find any devices over there then no worries you can continue with your project works.
if not unplug bolt device and turn of your wifi router then plugin the bolt device and make sure the blue light blinks then your good to configure your bolt device.

@jebinapriscilla I use the router.

@dhanush I’ll try that and let you know.

You simply need to disconnect your Wifi Router first so that your boltiot device doesn’t connect to internet
then open the boltiot app on your SmartPhone,
you will notice that your BoltIot Module is blinking Blue Light
then You have to log into your boltiot account in the App
and then it will ask you to connect to the wifi of the Module
then connect to the module using the password given on the screen and open the app again and click continue

it will setup your device and ask you for the router name and password
then you have to enter your SSID of the router and Password
and dont forget to turn your router on and
then it will configure your setting and
you are good to go.
hope this was helpful.

hey @kallln
The green light indicates that it has been connected to bolt cloud. As now your green light glows as soon as you power it is due to it gets automatically connected to your wifi and then to bolt cloud,because you had connected this using phone when you had setup it for your first IOT project the bolt wifi module to cloud.Once connected no need to connect again using cellphone.

Hope it helps…

Follow the following steps it will be solved.
1)Off the wifi router which you have connected it to before and the bolt module.

Hello @kallln
No matter what shows on your Bolt App, the moment the green light turns on, and if it remains stable, that is a sure indication that your Wi-fi module is now connected successfully with the Cloud.
I have encountered this problem frequently. Due to certain network glitches, the app takes some time to show that the module is connected to the cloud or not, regardless of the network strength. If the app takes too much time to respond, or it gets frozen, simply direct-exit the app, remove its background running from the phone RAM and restart it again. You will find, its showing that the module is connected now, to the cloud.
Do let me know whether the method helped you solving your problem.
Thanks,
Ritish

Firstly reinstall the app .
After reinstalling, again add device to the mobile which has the app.

If the green light on your device is glowing but your phone is not connected, it could be due to a few reasons:

  1. The device may not be in pairing mode: Make sure your device is in pairing mode by checking the instructions that came with it. Usually, devices can be put in pairing mode by holding down a button or combination of buttons for a few seconds.
  2. Bluetooth may not be turned on: Make sure your phone’s Bluetooth is turned on and is in discoverable mode. You can do this by going to your phone’s settings and looking for Bluetooth options.
  3. The device may not be compatible with your phone: Make sure your phone is compatible with the device you are trying to connect to. Check the device’s manual or website for compatibility information.
  4. The device may not be charged: Make sure the device is fully charged or has enough battery to establish a connection.
