I recieved the update last night and woke up this morning to a garmin that will not work. I did the soft reset which did nothing. I connected it to my laptop with Garmin Express and had to cycle the power to get it to recognize my device. Something is bad wrong with this update.
Hello all-
If you are experiencing Bluetooth connection or pairing trouble, please follow steps below:
I’m also seeing Bluetooth issues after update to SW6.8 (and battery issues that seem to be getting better after multiple charging cycles and syncs through PC connection and Garmin Express). Of note…
Hello 7680541! Thank you for referencing that link. I did not think of including that because I did not see anyone mentioning having to re-pair the watch/app(due to the repeated bonding codes), only that they were having Bluetooth connection issues with the watch/app or that they were having issues with Garmin Express recognizing the watch was plugged into their computer.
As far as the issue itself goes with the repeated bonding/pairing codes, we are still looking into these reports and I can assure you that we have not forgotten about you. 
For any updates, please feel free to comment on the thread and tag Garmin-Luke.
