the byte data type is the easiest thing to use.  |
It seems that when I change ALL char to byte in the bme280.c file
the problem disappear
I will test it more later this evening.
Thanks all for helping out.

Good. 
I've made that my 'default' since I started using the PIC24/33 chips.
Anything that is used for handling a 'value' being read in from a device, and
wants 8 bit storage, instead of using 'char', always use 'byte'. It solves
a lot of issues that otherwise appear.... |

'default' ...definition....
the set of values some other programmer decided should be 'normal'......NOT you.....
the 'default' (aka standard) for serial communications on a PC was true RS232 using a 25 pin connector........NOW the 'default' is USB3, well today, it'll change in a few moments....

| No, Jay, that is to 'compiler default'. I carefully said 'my default'..... |

That's true of an amazing number of newborn things...
Must admit 'lamb in the office', is not one I've encountered. Had owls,
foxes, bats, ferrets, puppies, dogs, cats, snakes, squirrels, hamsters,
tortoises and rats at various points. |
