I would further recommend the team looks in to watchdog issue within mesh. It has caused considerable problems in my experience. I am not at my PC but there other posts with issues involving watchdog problems. Such as this one > [@Xenon, combining threaded and manual modes can leave Xenon flashing green permanently](https://community.particle.io/t/xenon-combining-threaded-and-manual-modes-can-leave-xenon-flashing-green-permanently/45913): > > I’m not sure whether this is a bug but I think it’s useful to know If using the Xenon in mesh only mode without a cloud connection the following code with SYSTEM\_THREAD(ENABLED) will leave the Xenon flashing green forever and the application will never start running. Removing SYSTEM\_THREAD(ENABLED) and the code runs fine. The mesh connection in my case takes less than 2 seconds. That’s perfect if the device needs to sleep. SYSTEM\_THREAD(ENABLED) without a call to Mesh.connect() will leave the … Thanks --- _[View the full topic](https://community.particle.io/t/mesh-frustration/49293)._
