@Tony-Monteiro said: @elbee I think we all hope having a new firmware just to stop the battery drain… For functionnality, the Race is not anymore a priority for suunto. And the Race is a good watch for this price. So, just pray for a battery fix I don’t pray for the battery fix (I think I can mitigate that problem) I pray for the bluetooth connection lost fix. But, als we all know, praying doesn’t solve anything. Suunto isn’t working on a fix. (And neither for the battery problem. They actually think it doesn’t exist). And there are some other minor bugs te be fixed. But I don’t need any new functionality. From the last update, the more fine grained alarm settings where welcome. Trackmode is useless (and I train on a track at my athletics club every week). But I’m definitely not eager to install a new firmware for my race s (if there will be any) given the large number of people complaining about reboots and crashes after the latest firmware of the race 2/vertical 2.

I pasted your comment, and a link to your post, in the Suunto’s field testing chat. Good luck for tomorrow!

@Stefano-M64 Just to clarify, CG2 itself seems to work fine, its just the pop up notification for an upcoming red climb or green descent that are doubled up in the new then old format a few seconds apart.

@brechtvb said: and charging on a power bank triggers bugs and boot loops (I have experienced) Me too. I guess it depends on the power bank, but that is a huge issue…

@VoiGAS thanks!! I’ll look into it. My hope is to get him thinking about training sessions using RPE first, and HR as secondary feedback. So this might be the way I go.

@pvricardo Either the barometer sensor is dirty or the sensor has failed. I had the exact failure with my Race and had the watch replaced on warranty. In case the issue is caused by dirt, you can try soaking the watch in water, then let it dry and check if that has resolved the issue.

@shakra2005 Ja, das geht - jeder Bluetooth Herzfrequenz Sensor funktioniert, also auch z.b. die von Polar und Coros. Deren Oberarmsensoren sind sehr beliebt. Zu Zonesense gibt es eine lange Diskussion. Für mich funktioniert es nicht für andere schon. Deine anaerobe Schwelle kannst Du auch durch Tests abschätzen und dann die Herzfrequenz Zonen danach einstellen

Thought I’d add an update as I’ve just received a new sensor & belt from Suunto support who tested the old one & agreed that it was faulty. Also worth mentioning, whilst it was away at support I had to use the watch based optical sensor as I don’t have a back up & it performed surprisingly well

@sky-runner Yep, that’s exactly the same thing. I just upvoted your post.

@maszop can you give me some details about your disconnects with Vertical 2 and the new firmware? I will forward them to Suunto.

@elbee Thanks!

@wakarimasen their tss is though synced back to your watch. Suunto app calculates that fyi.

@SamppaP none as well. But i care more more about the guides tbh.

@winelouk same for me with Suunto Race 1, but with Android app. Already reported in https://forum.suunto.com/post/194359, but maybe worth opening a new thread, so I’m replying here

@herlas no. Injured. Whenever I do ride, the issue still persists. I have a different power meter now (SRAM Rival) and when the Race goes in pause and resumes the connection is gone and never returns. The hacks did not help. Sad story. Bad software. Suunto does not care.

Could you please provide the Suunto Race 2.39.20 (or late 2024) firmware OTA package? Thank you!
