Future S9 firmware wishlist summary

@Bulkan glonass never worked well for me. But Gal in begining worked well and now don’t. In somehow can be related with 2019 in summer event that put system off for more than 10 days. It was restored, but news about system is frozen. I even test Gal alone with a chipset dual freq capable (not in sportwatch) and results seems most worst.

@Bulkan Litle test.

Green line: real track;
Orange: nav;
Blue: nav+gal;
Pink: nav+glonass;

At some point blue was right, but inital and final segment completed off, pink especially last segment very off.

One think that should be thinking is these all systems are rational from economic perspective point of view? Why we cannot have a unified global system (40-50 sats) that save money for real causes (hunger, diseases, life quality)? Political and militar issues?

Because world is not like that.
Military first, then citizens if available, and each big countries their own system to be safe. That is life.

@Luís-Pinto
… you’re so right, I fully agree…
the world is growing together but because of various and for me not acceptable reasons politicians start to just take care of them selves and think that the “world” ends right at the border

@TELE-HO Is like vision we should be collaborative, not competitive.

A good surprise next week?

tomahawk5000

I’d like to know that too?
Any hints about update?

Luís Pinto

@Rob33 Only few at this forum know that. Five or six guys!

@Luís-Pinto is it a given that an update is on the way then?

Luís Pinto

@megacoolsurfdude I’m not that five or six guy. i bet soon!

Bulkan

@Luís-Pinto yeah, something is broken in Glonass. I remember since summer when part of the net wasn’t available. Who knows…

I’d like to see graph of battery drain within the watch, something like on x axis time, on y axis, battery percentage. So I can have visual on how the battery is being drained over the day.

@Bulkan so in Europe better use Galileo or Glonass?

Bulkan

@tomahawk5000 For me It works better in this order GPS > GPS+glonnas >GPS+Galileo.

I’m in Canary Island, but from what I’ve read here in the rest and norther Europe is the same.

@Bulkan I’m surprised GPS without Glonass or Galileo better than with one of them?

@tomahawk5000

In northern France, I use only GPS.

@tomahawk5000 and it’s not the first time

Backlight gesture like garmin is very important

Got a run in Amsterdam with GPS only, pretty good track indeed, close to the best I had on this route using Galileo, and with less battery consumption. I’ll keep using GPS only until we get Baidou
