      Dears,

      Hope that this is the right thread. The issue happened to me today. I had a long run this morning. After 47minutes of run activity (with guide app), watch restarted by itself, just in the middle of the activity. Luckily I noticed that and started a new run activity (this time without guide app). Then I ran for next 40 minutes without any issue.
      I upgraded to the latest firmware just yesterday.
      In the watch for the first run activity (that one which restarted) I used Guide app, which was structured training imported from TrainingPeaks.
      I already sent logs to Suunto. I wanted to open the case by myself but I did not find where to do so. Therefore I would like to kindly ask @isazi , whether you could do it on my behalf.
      I sent logs from SA. My user account is zadow@seznam.cz

        Any updates on what Suunto is doing about Suunto 9’s crashing all the time? Lol I tried selling mine but nobody wants it…And I don’t blame them. Anyways I find myself playing with my Suunto 9 and I’d say every 5th or 6th activity it crashes while loading apps, guides and sensors (hrm, STRYD, etc.). Like I said I only play around with it here and there and haven’t taken it for a run or ride in a long time because it’ll crash and it takes forever for the GPS to reconnect. Lol I tested it the other day and it took a solid 30 minutes to reconnect to GPS. Not that it matters, but I’m just curious if they’re still working on this or have they moved on? It also sucks because I really liked the update that added Suunto Guides. Mine didn’t have problems until the update that included marathon/half marathon race predictor.

                Mine also restarted to crash like this… Mainly on walking exercises. And GPS sometimes is taking a long time to fix. Never had this GPS fix delay before.

                  My watch restarted again, during todays run.
                  I was using guide - imported structured workout from TrainingPeaks. Watch restarted 6 minutes after start.
                  I synced watch with SA right after restart and sent logs immediatetaly. @isazi , would you be so kind and add my logs to the ticket, please? I believe that there is one already.

                        Hi all, another restart today. In cycling activity, after 57 minutes, watch restarted. Mounted on bike holder connected to Suunto HR belt and powermeter InPeak. No guides, no apps this time. Logs sent to Suunto via SA. @isazi could I kindly ask you to add the logs to the ticket? (Zadow@seznam.cz)
                        Hope it helps.

                            Not sure. If I had that watch and those problems I would hard reset it at least. And if doesn’t work roll back. But that is only my opinion and view on troubleshooting

                              Three weeks to date and it happened again. Same kind of run, noticed it before 100 meters were run.

                                Random crash is Suunto’s cancer, there is no way to really cure it

                                  Don’t worry, I’ll keep reporting these until it gets fixed.

                                    I wasn’t having a bad enough start of a day so Suunto decided to shit bed once again. Gah.

                                          @isazi So, it still makes sense to report and send the logs? If so, root cause is still not known…?
                                          btw, thanks for handling it for us!

                                            @zadow honestly, I do not know. If something very different happens it is good to report it, if it is the same as before probably not useful. I do not know how much of Suunto resources are spent in the development for older watches.
