Syncing problems Ambit3 with iPhone11

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Hey Dimitrios!
Good news, it worked for me with the beta version!!
I managed to sync two activities
It failed a couple of times but in the end the two activities synced.
I don’t know what did the trick. I tried initializing sync from the watch, then from the « debug » menu you mentioned (save data from watch -> start sync).
I’ll keep you updated as I have more activities to sync.

Thank you!

@benoitg Ok so basically it was not a “bug” in parsing the data (which I personally suspected), but rather something with the connection…

Just out of couriosity, what will happen if you just keep the phone active when syncing, and the watch (meaning dont let it sleep)

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Would love to try it… I don’t see the link to the FAQ?

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos it didn’t seem linked to the activities. In my case the app was showing Syncing with a progress bar progressing very fast and then Sync failed. Every time, for every activities.
It wasn’t a problem with the watch or the phone going in sleep mode, you told us to watch for that and it is explained in the troubleshooting pages too.
With the beta it worked more like in the movescount days: sync failed a few times, app showing « not connected » or sync failed, I turned off and on Bluetooth, start sync from watch, retried the process until it worked
Next activity I’ll try to get you some logs to check.

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos thx. install worked… will do an activity a bit later today, see if it syncs…

Dimitrios Kanellopoulos

Hi
Not just the synch the paiting also failed for me A3 peak via iphone se 2020…

No luck getting this to pair with the beta… nor could I export the workout from the debug menu. It eventually throws a “Failure: Archive or data fetch failed unknownError” message. It does seem to recognize there are three workouts there…

When I just try and sync from debug, I get a “Header Parsing Failure”

@lkovari you cannot pair the watch ?

Dimitrios Kanellopoulos

@runnr_az just to get this right. Did you manage to pair the watch ?

runnr_az

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos yeah… the watch has always paired with my iPhone 11, it always seems to begin sync, but can’t seem to close the deal.

Dimitrios Kanellopoulos

Hey guys I need your feedback if we need to get this fixed.

@runnr_az I you have a pm

I also reset everything (unpair watch, delete from bluetooth…) and then restart from beginning.
Pairing the watch is still working … good news ! but after even the GPS Optimization failed ! Iforgot to add that I have also downloaded the latest Sunnto App. The real question is when you will admit that no one in Sunnto cares about managing this situation. I am wondering if it worths to continue to follow-up this subject on this forum. May be communicating on social Media & networks and explaining that a Sync problem openned in Sept. 2019 is still not solve, we help all people thinking about Suunto will reconsider their choice !

Wow, someone that works for Suunto is trying to help you, and your answer is a veiled menace to social media blackmailing. Kudos to you sir.

Dimitrios Kanellopoulos

@pcarval hi.

as you can see I am helping here, and we have already a candidate for the issue.

@runnr_az has sent us his watch for investigation and we thank him for that.
