Software update 2.37.48

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos
Thank you, I ran a quick check yesterday and it seems like the battery drain from navigation hanging is fixed.

I reset the watch after the update to make sure i didn’t see a battery calibration error and only saw a 3% drop which is what I’ve experienced in the past after a similar day/ activity.

@kriskus yes, there are many other problems, which I described here:
https://forum.suunto.com/post/129066

But it is not good, when company not only not fixing existing problems, but also creating new.

In general still I like suunto watch in swimming. For example, as far as I saw comparing with other users, suunto has better automatic intervals distance/time calculation, than garmin.

…with every new update

Any solution for this :

“Update started on watch (race s). I got an error message saying it failed and recovered. Now watch says it is up to date with version2.37.34 and will not let me try update again. iPhone app say watch software package download. For 2.37.48. …”

Is there a way to manually download and force this update?

@Antanas-V and @fritzbt2013
without being sure of what i will say, if i were in your case, i would try (at your own risk) :
1- see which FW packages are effectively in my watch.with the service menu (settings/general/about, then scroll down until the bottom, release button, and then long press bottom button)

2- if new FW is in watch, try to update from there (which i never did ). If it is not working, i would delete the new FW package from the same menu and go to point 3.
3- if new FW is not in watch, i would uninstall suunto app and reinstall it and retry FW update process.

@Mff73 thank you! Success at step 2, appreciate the detailed instructions.

great. but now i am reading this again , i ask myself one question : if proper FW package was well in your watch, didn’t you have already access to the normal “update FW” menu in settings/general ?

[fritzbt2013]

@Mff73 I did. Initially it behaved normally and started installing the new version. After the update fail it showed with the greyed text( as u have shown) and if I selected it it would say I was up to date even though my version was the older one.

[Antanas V]

@fritzbt2013 same thing!

[Antanas V]

@Mff73 Thank You! Success at step 2, too.

@Александр-Даниленко @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos my vote here to bring it back, it was working fine for me as well. That swim wall clock screen is so epic, please bring the marker back .

SUUNTO RACE S / SUUNTO RACE / SUUNTO VERTICAL / SUUNTO 9 PEAK PRO

Staged update starting on October 2nd 2024

Bug fixes:

• Fixed cases where sleep tracking and OHR stopped working
• Fixed a case where pool swim distance was wrong in logbook
• Fixed a case where power consumption remained high after navigation

Only I have after this update problem with speed tracking? Today I wanted to track my trip in Italy (mountains and hard terrain) and all time it was showing 10-20km/h, while in phone (I downloaded some app) it was like 2-5km/h.

@Antoine Am noticing much the same, suunto vertical and in the first 12Hrs I dropped 1% from a full charge (Hr active + blood oxygen), no activity. Now that my day has started and wrist buzz is humming along nicely to the arrival of new emails and msgs… I hope to see less than 5% for today (including a 1hr gps activity).

Same configuration as you.
6% in 36h with one run of 50 minutes.
HR active, blood oxygen, only bip but no buzz, no backlight. No navigation tested yet.

SPP9 Updated tonight…it recorded just 1 h of sleep…in the hope it was because the updating.

[Ars Vitae]

@karmazynowycukiereczek Silly question, but didn’t you confuse the unit of pace in min/km with speed in km/h? The result would more or less match if the first value is min/km and the second is km/h.

[VoiGAS]

First experience with battery life after the update: about 25% for a 4,5h workout with maps. Seems like before, I read somewhere the Race S only lasts 18h with maps. Would fit, but thats not great. I had hope the update would increase the lifetime 🫤

[Mff73]

@VoiGAS
issue was more that battery was draining outside exercising, and this FW is expecting to fix this, not to improve the battery life during exercising.

[VoiGAS]

@Mff73 Yes, I will see this effect in the next hours - or hopefully not. I just thought maybe it also helps during the exercise, but Unfortunatly it doesn’t

[Brad_Olwin]

@VoiGAS With Maps my Race S goes much longer than that! If you are on the maps page 100% maybe. Here is the battery estimate from a 9h event, it was slow as I was the sweep and managed to get 6 people over the finish line 2 min prior to the cutoff. Poorvo is Ocean and Ulsan is Race S.
