SOFTWARE UPDATE 2.19.42 January 27, 2022
-
24 hours with FW 2.19.42
-
daily battery consumption - ok no change
-
went for run 20k (+800m) trail - use S+ weather plus route navigation (route saved from a workout), the route was not showing the elevation screen nor the turns (I guess that is ok for route saved from a workout?), when changed to a different route, the watch crashed and restored by themselves - the workout was saved automatically and watch came to time mode. I started and new activity and watch frozen totally on the screen where they are looking for GPS, HR, etc. Soft reboot needed. Since then, all ok - I repeated all the steps above with no issue.
-
sleep mode - SPO reading ok, battery drain during the night with SPO on, no change compared to when SPO is not on. Great job. Morning summary ok.
-
resources ok
-
HR ok
-
baro, alti ok
-

The excessive battery drain was also fixed in this update. So does this mean that SpO2 is draining more than without, but the same as before the update?
-
@surfboomerang I never had an issue with battery drain during the day or night. What I’m saying is that sleep tracking with SPO has the same consumption as sleep tracking without it. This is not the case for Garmin, where SPO night readings are on during the whole night and eating the battery dramatically.

same hereMe - S9B -
girlfriend - S9P -
(old sw, no phone connection, watch time incorrect) -
Using SpO2 at night consumes (slightly?) more battery than not doing it, just so you all know.
-
@hankwang Two reasons. I have tried several different watches and the comfort in wearing the S9P is unmatched. It’s simply the most comfortable. And actually I like the Suunto app much more than the Garmin one.

@halajos fix is on the way backend wise. Issue was the HU lang for some corner case.
If you are too eager to use an s+ now you can change the phone lang to eng to bypass this issue but I think our backend guys within the hour(s) should have this fixed.
Do I need to do anything on my side after the fix is done? I know it may take more time to fix the backend, I’m just wondering if it’s already done and there’s something else wrong. The symptom is the same.
-
@isazi well either I have something wrong with how the battery status is shown or it is really slightly (1-2% more than with SPO off).
-
@markytarky nightly SpO2 measurement has only a negelctible impact on the battery. Diffcult to state in % as these may vary.
-
Resources not fixed in this update?

After this update, I have a problem with “Sports Mode Customization” menu.
It is not updated and stuck in the “Updating” status.I’ve tried soft reset of my s9p but in vein.
Should I do a hard reset? Is there any other solution?(
Anybody has the same issue or found solution?
-
@soojong-moon I can access the list of sports and can create new sport profiles. I have just created one.
-
One small thing I noticed on outdoor watchface. Black line on baro is missing when using black background. On white it is there. Previous FW had it.
-
@halajos should be now ok?
-
@egika that’s what I said, it closed to zero. Compared to Garmin Fenix 6 pro, where if you switch on the night SPO reading, it has a significant impact on the battery. Of course, the reading frequency and algorithm are different. If you ask me: it doesn’t make sense to read the SPO too often during sleep. Why so, right?
-
@markytarky exactly. You would not expect SpO2 to change significantly over one night.
-
@dimitrios-kanellopoulos it wasn’t until I changed the phone language to English. With that setting I added the S+ features I need. Then switched back to Hungarian and the S+ features are still there now.
-
@jugger The outdoor watchface has some more issues.
Maybe collect all those issues here: https://forum.suunto.com/topic/6618/suunto-9-peak-watchface-issues -
It’s nice to get another update, thanks!
But one thing is beyond me to understand - Suunto still doesn’t support any structured workouts?!! How is this possible in a professional sports watch? Years go by…
I wish to receive SW in the next update.
Best regards -
@aroo7 wish harder!
it might come true then
