So, 2A01 is listed in the bluetoothd debug output, so, I guess its a fault that it cant be read? It is not listed in the output of bluetoothctl list-attributes (also attached) so I could not read the value using that tool. Without any other changes, my own lib/app was able to connect to the watch and start reading data seemingly fine, though I did get an unexpected disconnected after reading a large amount of step/activity data, but that may be unrelated, read/write and notify were all working.
