Today's Daly SmartBMS Android App Update forces a firmware update which fails

Thank you for your help.
Regarding the strings of cells, does this mean parallel cells or is this some other concept ?
I guess I use one string of 16 cells right ?

For now the BMS is working as excepted, I just can't see the live status of the SOC and other data but overall it's doing it's job. I'm not sure I want to risk a firmware update (and also I don't have so much time for it).

How likely is it that Daly will release a new APP/firmware to solve all the issues ?
 
Until 23.12.22 daly don't give Firmware to Users.
With the updated App (2.4.0) Desaster, daly must give Firmware to reactivate the broken BMS.
I guess you have a Others issue, as Firmware.
Can, you make a Screenshot-Luke this ..

Strange, In that Situation i would try to Update or Change the BMS.

In this Thread are all Tools that are needed for Update. I would try it with bms-android-app. (Some Posts in Front).

Might it be a good idea to assemble all of the latest Firmware, software and lessons learned into one message and upload this to the Resources area?hOPE
Hope this can help you out,please try.

Ok, thanks for the info. I guess you are working for Daly right ?
If I understand corretly, for people that didn't try to update the firmware till now, we just have to wait until the next app release ?
 
Thank you Lily, that someone from Daly now also speaks here and certainly saves one or the other from an expensive new purchase. This is a very very good start that should be expanded!

I and many many other people would welcome it VERY much, if also times some light into darkness of the topic of the "incorrectly indicated current measurements" can be brought. Sometimes there are considerable complications in the interaction with various inverters, constant, short charging and discharging because the BMS thinks "oops, I'm in the limit, stop the whole thing right away!" Especially in connected systems that actively communicate with the BMS (Victron via SerialBattery-Driver) etc. it sometimes messes up the whole system. Such basic things MUST work and if they don't, communicate and fix it.

It would be enough if your "support" in this regard is limited to ONE forum.... Here for example, since English-speaking, with international range, it would have ALL something of it and not only the customers who have bought directly from you in the store. The whole Rebrands are called in the vernacular namely also only "Daly" and thus also indirectly fall back on you.
Communicate problems openly, maybe even with a solution, and the community will take care of the rest if this question comes up again. Thus your effort is limited to a manageable level. Add a note that firmware updates are ALWAYS done at YOUR OWN risk and you're done.

Many have already switched to alternatives from JK or JBD, since these deliver for the money partly significantly more, or basic functions work CORRECTLY. So, give yourself a push and the people will thank you through loyalty (and corresponding sales)!

Greetings from Germany!
 
Mine is a R05A-GA23 4S100A version (probably old version). Not sure what firmware to upgrade. Under Sinowealth (don't have access from PC Master) it says "software version: 1.03 hardware: 2.10 (SH39F003 serial number under Smart BMS) so I guess I have to use the DalyBmsApp_103_303(12_221130_100T) firmware??? This is a 2021 BMS.

Update: Tried it. It doesn't do it through the BMS basis app. It keeps repeating the boot upgrade command. I have two more options now, the BmsSTM32F030_303_20220722.s19 and BmsGD32E230_303(32_221130_100T).s19. Does anybody know which could be the one? Thanks

Hello Lily Chan,
I think it's very good that someone from Shenzhen (Daly?) is also reporting here in the forum. You can read here what problems the Daly users have. I hope you have read in this thread how much the users themselves have found out. However, direct contact with Daly Support, here, would be greatly appreciated. For many, it becomes a purchasing decision.
One thing that was buggy 2.4.0 apps version which made many BMS unusable. I know from my own experience that the sellers (DALY BMS Factory Store, DALY Official Store at Ali) are rarely helpful. The problem with 2.4.0 apps is already solved.
Second thing, these are basic functions on Daly BMS. For example problem with current measurement when discharging. The BMS show peak values (in Smart BMS apps), which are useless when the inverter is used as a load. Only "xxxx_CADC.s19" firmware from Feb.2022 can display (current) mean value correctly. Newer devices no longer.
Kind regards
 
An Others issue. I was wondering about the average voltage.

Any hints on newer Version for Update?

- 4s, 12 Volt
- GD230-DVCE
- R06A2-HE21
- 34_220323_100T

Ich hatte auch ein GD230-DVCE (8S), das neben bekanntem Strommessungsfehler (Inverter), noch ungenaue Zellen Werte (Spannung) gezeigt hat! Ich kann mich nicht an den durschnittwert erinnern, aber die Zellen Spannung Abweichung bis 10 mV. Balancer gleicht meine 8 Zellen auf 0 bis 1 mV. Altes BMS (GD230-309E) zeigt auch ca. 0,001V. Ich habe keine Hilfe (Firmware?) von "DALY BMS Factory Store" bekommen, das Gerät ist zurückgeschickt! ich war sauer. "DALY BMS Factory Store" verkauft mit "PLUS" - Rückgaberecht (kostenlos!), und es funktioniert. Geld gerade zurückgebucht. Meine Erfahrung mit DVCE, noch größeres Mist wie die alte AFE Chip, und keine Fix Firmware im Umlauf. Die Geräte sind immer günstiger und schlechter.
 
Ich habe @Lily Chan angeschrieben. Bin Mal gespannt ob und wann sie eine Rückmeldung gibt.
Bei mir war es @Selina.
UpdateProblem und StromMessFehler bei Wechselrichterbetrieb.
Freundlich, hilfsbereit, aber keine Lösung.
Ist aber schon etwas her, aber jetzt wächst der Druck, nicht zuletzt wie durch Foren wie dieses!
 
Je nachdem, wo das BMS gekauft war, die zwei Support Emails. Anfragen an Verkäufer bringen nicht viel.
