Yesterday I received a new WICED Sense bluetooth smart sensor tag and tried to check if it works on iPhone 5S and iPhone 6 that are on iOS 8.1.2. The iOS WICED Sense App could not be paired with either of them.
Secondly I tried to pair it with iPhone 4S with iOS 8.1 and luckily it got paired. I was then able to see the sensors working on this iPhone WICED Sense App. However, for no particular reason - it stopped working today. I tried by removing the battery and putting it back as despite pressing the wake button, no red light was becoming ON.
Then I downloaded the latest Wiced Smart SDK 2.2.0 for Windows and connected the tag using USB. I followed the recovery procedure. Now the red lights are turning ON when I use Wakeup button but the bluetooth connection is still unsuccessful.
Please help.

I am using iOS 8.1.2 and WICED Sense pairs with no issues? I checked with several others internally and they are not seeing any issues on iOS 8.1.2 either.

Hello Vikas,
Try "Forget this device" in iOS and then see if you can pair.
I will check with the developers on the 8.1.2 version.
Thanks,
JT

Thanks JT. I will wait to hear back from you on making it work on iOS 8.1.2.
In the meanwhile, I need help with recovery procedure. When I perform the Make Target step using "... recover UART=COM4" - I sometimes get "Download - error" and sometime get "Recovering Platform - error". I have tried the "PRESS RESET and HOLD --> PRESS BOOT and HOLD --> RELEASE RESET-->RELEASE BOOT" and also "PRESS BOOT and HOLD--> PRESS RESET and HOLD-->RELEASE BOOT--> RELEASE RESET" several times. So
- Is there an over the phone support I can call to get assistance?
- All references to SDK in the recovery procedure are to version 2.1.1 whereas I am using the latest 2.2.0. Would that make a difference in recovery? I am not sure if 2.2.0 supports BCM20737S.
Also is there a limitation for connecting these tags simultaneously to more than 1 device? I thought I read somewhere that it supports up to 8 devices simultaneously but wanted to double check.
Thank you for helping!

I will let j.t respond to the WICED Sense recovery portion of your question.
Your local Broadcom Distributor may be able to provide local support; here is a list of Broadcom's Franchised Distributors
With regards to the recovery procedure, there is no difference between SDK 2.1.1 and 2.2.0. Version 2.2.0 definitely supports the BCM20737S.
There is a thread here which discusses handling multiple slaves from a single BCM2073XS client: Re: will SDK ever support more than 4 simultaneious connections?
