With previous builds, download was working correctly with standard Bluetooth. Now Subsurface-mobile is now trying to connect using BLE, but failing to connect. The dive computer screen continues with the waiting for PC countdown the entire time.

More in general, I have seen weird things related to BT/BLE switching.
For example, my OSTC3 paired as a type 1 (classic), type 2 (ble only),
and type 3 (bt and ble). This all just on OS (Android) level. Re-pairing
solved it most of the time (as it is definitely a type 3).
@Rick, in the app log, there is in de beginning some debug data printed
about found paired devices. If that reports a wrong type, things will
get confusing.
