SOS Flashlight Deletes Wi-Fi

Unread post by RickN55 »

I may have found another bug with version 5.90 update. If your 67 is connected to WiFi and you turn on the SOS light on the back it comes on screen and says turn off WiFi to use SOS light and it automatically turns it off then when you press connect to the WiFi networks it deletes the networks off the device. Can anyone else try this to see if it's a bug? Never did this on 5.30.

We se the same warning, but ours never actually turns the Wi-Fi off, nor does it delete the network from the device.

Interestingly, the warning only appears if we already have SOS configured when we turn the Flashlight on from the Flashlight page. If we have any other setting configured, say 2 Hz, then turn the Flashlight on from the Flashlight page and we scroll through the different settings, including SOS, the warning never appears. Also, if we configure the SOS pattern, then turn the Flashlight on from the Status Page, the warning never appears.
