Display Lock Bug
-
@maxwag90 This is an identified issue and shipping for my country (USA) is not until Oct 15. I believe that the forced firmware update that should occur when watches are received will fix this. Not aware that watches are already shipped. Sorry, this was identified in pre-release firmware by testers.

Thanks for the answer! In europe the watches are already being shipped. So i will have to wait for an software update…
-
Any idea when this update wil be available?
-
@maxwag90 may I ask how to make this soft reset?
-
@maxwag90 here i didnt have any issue with locking and offlocking the watch.
-
@maxwag90 lower button set to lock, lock, hour later, unlock with lower button without issue
-
@UjcoCZ same here
-
Long press ( around 15 sec) on upper right button
-
@UjcoCZ
Wait a little bit more and it may be not unlockable.@tomahawk5000
Soft reset is since super long time = long press (more than 12s) the upper button. -
@Mff73 4 or 5 hours, still no problem here …software 2.46.12
-
@maxwag90 Have the same problem. But when you charge your watch you can try to use the unlock button and it will work without doing a reset.

Hello,
I‘ve noticed the bug in my Race 2 too!Daily soft resets and also on hard reset haven‘t changed anything.
What‘s strange is that the error didn‘t appear for the first seven or eight weeks. Only after switching the watch sync from iPad to iPhone (due to possible media control during training) has it become constantly present.
What can I do besides performing a soft reset several times a day, which is really annoying?
Version: 2.46.14

@maxwag90 This just happened to me tonight, 5 minutes before a race started
Was the first time I used the lock function because my screen kept moving due my jacket touching the watch face.
Had to soft reset, and got the watch ready to race in the nick of time. Do not need that happening again!
Seems to be working now though…?

Hello,
I’ve had the Vertical 2 for 4 days now.
The first thing I set up was the screen lock.
But after a few minutes or hours, it becomes impossible to unlock it — a reboot is required.
Version 2.46.12I emailed support on Saturday and I’m waiting for a reply.

@phil78 known issue, need to wait for the update
-
@tomahawk5000 Yes, but it’s still important to report it to Suunto so that the issue appears less rare than they might think.
Here is the response
translated into English:
*Hello,Thank you for contacting us and for providing detailed information about the issue you’re experiencing with your Suunto Vertical 2. I understand how frustrating it must be when the lock function stops responding.
This is a known issue affecting certain watches running firmware version 2.46.12, and our development team is currently working on a solution.

We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience while we work on a permanent solution. As soon as a fix is available, it will be deployed through a firmware update via the Suunto app.

Problem solved with update 2.48.16
Does anyone know if it’s possible to set up an automatic lock after 30 seconds or 1 minute?
