Suunto 2.50.28 hot-fix Q4

thanasis

regarding the drain/battery management or whatever is related to the indication the watch provides … I am a bit disappointed… after letting the watch deplete and recharged it , I used and for 2 days it consumed like 2% per day - which gave me some smiles… (with oHR and notifications off though) … then I went for a run , using Suunto HR Belt, enabled the notifications and it lost 10% over 1 hour…

it is what it is , but it’s definitely not great

@thanasis if you like you can check battery usage during workout in https://smlanal.szmigiel.design from @łukasz-szmigiel
Export the json form the workout in suunto app and upload it there.

I haven’t checked yet but I guess the permanent sync with the HR Belt or other sensor is using much more battery. I did a MTB Ride this morning only with the OHR and best GPS and it uses about 2,8% / Hour.

Edit:
Uploaded a 10k run from December with Suunto HR Belt, it says 4,04%h. Still have to re-check with latest FW and App version.

Interesting bugs today, probably easy repeatable if someone wants to check.

Imported a Suunto guide from intervals.icu and set up a run with a route. Firstly, I previously had media on, and it wasn’t possible to turn off from the menu when running (long press bottom right).

Secondly, every time a new section started of the training, the watch would tell me it was off route, before confirming I was back on route about 10s later. Which if you combine with the vibration from getting into the correct zone, vibration to start the interval and so on, is a lot of buzzing on the wrist, especially if you have a short (100m or so) interval.

I’ll try and replicate it whenever I do a quality session next, probably earliest the weekend or next week I guess.

@Benjamin-0 when I RMA’d mine I just got a “your battery’s fine, here’s your watch back”, so lucky you

Just to add, had the same issue yesterday with the route dropping temporarily when in conjunction with a guided so every new interval caused a “route lost”/“back on route” combo.

Also, the watch hung on a zonesense screen, with nothing happening when buttons were pressed. Happily before I soft reset I tried the long press bottom button to escape to a menu, and then exited out, all was fine. Avoided the zonesense screen the rest of the run, but if someone else has that they may resort to soft resetting.

Appreciate it’s a bit late in the cycle of watch updates to report, but any idea if these have been fixed in new SW update or are unreported? @egika @dimitrios-kanellopoulos

Just replied to a post in the 9PP forum specific to this issue, but probably more appropriate to mention here…

After the last firmware update I started getting frequent phantom alerts/vibrations - several per day with no message on the screen or apparent reason.

In my case, this behaviour it disappeared after a few days without me taking any action, however over the last few days it has spontaneously started again - frequent phantom alerts/vibrations.

Not sure if this was acknowledged as a bug in the latest s/w and we can expect a fix in the imminent release?

Does any one know when this will be fixed? (Vertical 1)

The solar widget, the one that shows how much sun the watch have harvested during the week does not update. Only if you soft reset the watch. I think it has bees like this since the release of the vertical 1.
When in an activity the rise to wake does not work. Even if it is enabled. This one is a really pain, especially now during spring/ summer and you trail run in the forest. The screen is really hard to read in a glance, if you are not in direct sunlight. or if you press a button. which then tae you to the next screen. which is another pain.

@helgonet12 I have not seen either of those issues in my V1 Ti Solar. I’m presuming you have reviewed all your settings and at least soft reset the watch?

helgonet12

@larrybbaker that is verry strange. I have had the watch since release and what I can remember it has never worked. But I could be wrong. And yes I have tried everything.

helgonet12

@larrybbaker So you mean that your widget does not look like this? no matter how much or little the watch harvest sun the widget remains the same. It has done so since launch of vertical 1

@helgonet12
yep, it refreshes only if you restart the watch
