@maxm23
you can find previous firmware here. download the one you want and pull it in SuuntoLink.
Battery calibration sometimes goes weird, but what you describe is clearly not normal. my watch works the same as before the upgrade

My watch I sent to unofficial service for diagnostic. There isn’t official service in my region and watch warranty ended.
-
@zhang965 Did that for 5 times in a row, as recommended by Suunto support, no improvement

I know, it’s…the last secours… personally the battery is getting lower capacity after 2years

@freeheeler thank you very much for sharing. I couldn’t find the 2.20.30 release, which is the second latest. Any idea where to get this one?

@zhang965 It would be fine if the battery capacity would go down by 5-10% after a certain time. But degreasing directly after the update by >80% is not ok.
-
@zhang965 the problem was happened in one day. Before this problem my watch had worked during 5 days with activities and after the problem my watch work during 10 hours without any activities.
-
@zhang965 Many thanks!

-

any trick how to install the “older” firmware? I’ve dragged and dropped the .zip file content to Suuntolink and connected the watch. It shows still the latest firmware. Does it need to be a Windows device?
-
Drop it on the gear icon if I remember anything
-
@zhang965 thanks, again. It worked.
-
@maxm23
I remember apple has some updates to slower their old devices … -
@zhang965 I´ll check in a couple hours or latest tomorrow how fast the capacity will go down.
-
After 12h and battery save mode the capacity went from 100% to 10%. So, the firmware downgrade didn’t help

@maxm23
how old is your watch? please get in touch with support, it’s not normal but special that it appears after a while only -
@freeheeler not even 2 years, bought it in April 2021.
I’ve contacted Suunto support, they suggesting to sent the watch for an inspection. I guess it will turn out in a costly repair. -
@maxm23 if you watch is less than 2 years old is covered by warranty in EU, so you probably will not have to pay anything.
