Suunto Software Update Q2 Hotfix 2.56.28 Race 2 and Vertical 2

[tomahawk5000]

@isazi hi may I count that this winter my vertical 2 will count properly all slopes for alpine skiing (same issue for snowboard and race 2). Last winter first one was empty see below

tested many times all the time same issue

@tomahawk5000 I do not remember this issue, and I am not sure if it has been fixed or not in the new firmware

[tomahawk5000]

@isazi happy to provide you all needed details just let me know.
I have reported this to Suunto directly in Feb but they haven’t fixed it

[isazi]

@tomahawk5000 yes send me all the information and I’ll fill in a bug report

By the way, the following steps almost 100% guarantee a crash:

1. Start an activity with navigation and S+ guide
2. Go to control panel and change S+ guide without stopping or pausing the activity
3. Exit control back back to the activity

I don’t know if this is specific issue or something that triggers a deeper issue, but I have just reproduced this crash for the 3rd time. I suspect this triggers a race condition deep in the software stack, it may be a symptom of a deeper issue. In fact this time the watch didn’t restart but remained completely black until I forced a restart with 12-sec push on the upper button. Previous times when I tried this it restarted.

@sky-runner is this a new kind of crash, or related to your last report?

I just got another restart when I got morning report. Any idea how to solve these restarts? They are getting more and more frequent

@sky-runner I just tested this process, and there was no restart. I started an activity with navigation and one S+ app. Then, without pausing, I added two more S+ apps – still no restart. I used to have issues with restarts, but since I got a replacement Vertical 2, it hasn’t restarted once.

@Dušan Ković Usual approach is:

• Power off / on
• If it does not help, factory reset
• If it does not help, contact support, they will probably ask for logs from the watch
• Wait for firmware to hopefully fix that
• If not, try different manufacturer

Edit: Reply to wrong post, trying to fix it. Should have been to Dušan Ković.

@runyx17 have you tried especially a Guide S+?
