Hi,
I never did this, do I need to drag the zip file ? or do I need to unzip the four file and them drag all of them at the same time ?
thanks

Pierre L

I did it with the zip file and the update started

Pierre L

So it worked even if at the end of the update I had a error message told than the update failed and that I needed to check my internet connection

I reconnected the watch to the PC and the firmware is now 2.23.20.
So I assume that the update at the end worked properly even with this strange error message

Thanks

Egika

@Pierre-L yes. since you updated using the file offline, internet connection has no effect.
but missing internet connection from SuuntoLink could have been the issue for no update shown in the first place…

Pierre L

@Egika
Thanks a lot for your help.

And do you know why I have always this message error when I am connection my watch to the Suuntoapp

Egika

@Pierre-L Same as before: Suuntolink cannot connect to the internet.
Do you have a firewall in place or is this a company computer?

Pierre L

@Egika
This is a company computer but I do not remember having this error message before.
I will try with my home computer => And if I have the same error what is the conclusion ?
Thanks

Egika

@Pierre-L that your home computer has an internet connectivity problem for SuuntoLink as well

how did it go on private PC?

Since the update of my S9peak I noticed that the battery lasts longer. Before the update I had to charge every 4 to 5 days in average (usually from 10 to 95%), with about 13 hours of weekly GPS performance usage (but with display time out), 24/7 HR tracking and all notifications. Now, after the update the battery lasts about 6 days with the same behavior.
I suppose that the update caused a needed battery calibration. Or are there also some general improvements in energy consumption?

@wotus Perhaps the improved Raise-to-wake algorithm that does not trigger the backlight that often in case of the random arm shakes and motions?

wotus

@inkognito Possibly you are right, but I have set Raise-to-wake only for exercise and mostly I use display time out.

@inkognito i started using rise to wake (just because we don’t have toggle mode anymore) and i noticed it does lights up during driving a car.

Yes it’s normal, the feature is called rise to wake, and when you drive you rise your hands it wakes up.

If you don’t like it you can request a new feature: while driving rise to not wake

I like how well integrated the DND is, when in a theater or at home watching a movie in the evening and DND is selected there is no temptation to look at the watch as you cannot see the screen. This is a good example of IMHO how Suunto does a good job of thinking how users will need a feature and implementing the feature. A much less sophisticated option would be to simply turn off notifications but have a blazing watch face light up in a theater when you move your hand from the popcorn to your mouth….

@Brad_Olwin
fully agree. Suunto takes feedback and thinks beyond before pushing it to the market. I really appreciate that!

Was there any changes in steps counting?
I have noticed that for same distance it calculates cca 1000 steps less……

@Djordje-S I had problems in step counting wearing the S9P in left wrist when walking with last firmware, always 10-15% less steps than wearing in right wrist.

I think the problem is still there.

@freeheeler ok thanks. (have edited my post…was thinking “soft” but wrote "hard) :

EDIT : soft reset worked, no more issue.

After few days : just after I do a soft reset, it works…and then it doesn’t…
So, still have issue : can’t use Suunto apps
Any idea ? ( I certainly won’t make a hard reset ; prefer not using Suunto apps than loosing all setting and personal sports modes ! )

@Tieutieu
the apps you want are bookmarked in myapps and pinned to watch? you sync and don’t see it/them in your activity start screen?
I would try logout and in again from Suunto App as a next step
