Garmin Connect no longer connecting to my Edge 520 Plus

Similar posts on the 520 forum, with potential answer - Edge 520 and Android 13 (Pixel phone) - won't pair - Edge 520/520 Plus

And here: Android pairing issue

I have had the exact same issue today, Sony Xperia. After ride it wouldn't upload ride, so I tried all the usual tricks, forget device, reinstall app etc and it starts pairing, shows six digit code on phone and edge but then gets stuck about a third of the way across loading bar, then says pairing failed. Tried it on my daughter's Samsung, worked fine...what is going on?

This is the exact same behaviour I had with mine. It would stop the pairing process about 1/3rd of the way through. 

I think it's an issue with the 4.59 version of the app as I've just downgraded to 4.58.1 & it's working again. So hopefully the devs are looking at this and will put out a fix soon. 

Unfortunately this isn't what I'm experiencing. Thanks for the link though :)

Without wanting to sound like a rank amateur, but how do I downgrade to 4.58?  Thanks in advance

If you want to try it, see below from Sync / Connection Troubleshooting Guide

If nothing helps and you know the previous version of Garmin Connect Mobile worked all right, consider installing an older version  from an APK archive. There are several unofficial APK archives available on the web (for example here). Use on own risk - there is no guarantee from Google or from Garmin that those files were not modified by a 3rd party (though I have only positive experience with the mentioned website)  

Thanks for that, I will take a look

As above really - I used a different website, but the idea is the same 

Same problem here. Edge 520 plus and poco f2 pro not pairing....
