I’am a Suunto Race user from germany and I can confirm that one of the last software updates also happened in the middle of the night and woke me up with a super bright display (like the flashlight app). After installing this update my watchface went back to its default settings, so that I had to reconfigure it again. I don’t know if there was a good reason for that or if it was a bug.

@Egika thanks, I had to reset watch and app, but somehow multiple times later it was able to connect

@Olaf-Gottschalk My main activity is biking (trail / enduro) and I use OHR. It stops receiving HR literally every single ride. I’ve noticed that it stops when I make a short pause during a ride. It may be a traffic light or sip of water. Then OHR shows impossible low level for HR instead of real one. My solution is to remove watch from my wrist, clean the sensor and put it back on. It works for me (mostly). It takes some time - so maybe this is also a factor. But it is very annoying to have that kind of problem. I am forced to observe the watch to catch the moment when problem occurs. SUUNTO - please verify this case. And fix it please.

@Alessandro-Fasiello-0 very strange behavior, contact support and follow their instructions

@Sportsfreund said in Suunto Race Crashed again mid ride... 🤮: @Olaf-Gottschalk Ist denn Suunto schon mal während einer Aktivität abgestürzt? Das hatte ich bisher noch nicht. Das war ja der Grund für meinen Beitrag… Ja. Schon mehrmals. Seit ich sie habe 3 mal…

Soft reset seems to have fixed the issue somewhat. Clearly a memory management issue, which seems to be a recurring issue with these watches. A bit surprising that there is no warning mechanism for this sort of thing.

@Olaf-Gottschalk I do not think this is a huge problem, you may not have had a complete sync with the watch when you first looked at the app. It almost always does work in the background. The data are not “wrong” as your watch may have thought that you had woken up earlier, perhaps you were moving around in your sleep. Personally, I would take all of these metrics cautiously. If you are planning training based on what your watch is telling you IMHO you are entirely misguided. It is fine to use the information to help guide you but I believe nothing is better than your body and brain at making decisions regarding sleep, restfulness and your ability to exercise.

@Egika Thanks, hopefully fixed soon

@kbilel I send the watch last week from Fr, they replaced my device with a replacement unit and send it, i have it today, A realy nice service, thanks suunto

@GiPFELKiND …what @surfboomerang and @Brad_Olwin said I think you are in the forum long enough to know this

@Elipsus said in Bug while following GPX track “marked path”: @Egika oh i see, i understand a bit more the snap to route… However, I’m still not sold on it, because “what if” the gpx track given by the organisaion isn’t perfect somewhere/had to make a last minute detour ? I have the very real risk of a completely butchered map display… From my point of view, not handling this situation seems a bit of an oversight… For my next run I will stay on the intinery thing without directions, thanks for the advice You can still follow the provided GPX track without using the snap to route feature. Your watch will show the GPX planned route, the activity will be plotted by GPS and the deviation will be captured properly in the app afterwards.

@isazi Thanks mate. Appreciate it.

@isazi Thank you!

I’ll be able to provide updates if I hear something from Suunto, for now it has just being acknowledged as a reported bug.

@freeheeler thanks!

It’s so weird that the calibration works for me during the activity. I have to be on the navigation screen for it to work. Maybe that clue was missing… Anyways, I can still hardly believe this sloppy engineering work: a watch that is not able to really store/save the calibration with a magnetic charging connector

@suzzlo ok so it will calculate the avg only tomorrow. I thought it calculates it live. Thanks.
