Pairing Fx5+ with garmin connect

I noticed yesterday that my Fenix 5+ doesn't want to make any connection with my phone whatsoever.

Things I tried:

- updating the app, updating bluetooth software on f5+

- restarting phone (samsung galaxy 8+); restarting garmin device;

- remove device from garmin connect app;

- hard reset Fenix 5+ (data and settings);

- reinstalling garmin connect app; 

- removing cache from Bluetooth app;

- ...

When i try to reconnect my device to the garmin connect app it does find the device immediately but refuses to pair. It's always stuck at +- 10% and states after a time that the pairing failed and the setup was not successful. 

Any ideas?
