HotFix release 2.25.64

[runomatic]

@wmichi I suppose it’s the bug, that after a long break (45 minutes and more) there were issues with the tracking when continueing the activity

@babychai the firmware and maps are independent, and the map of Malaysia has not been updated yet. When it gets updated you will be able to delete and download it again. No need to do it now.

@runomatic exactly, the new GNNS firmware should improve the performance of regaining signal after loss. This is not specifically for OWS, but Sony is also working on better OWS for a future update. And Suunto is working on OWS too

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos updated and thanks for the details of the update !

Map missing issue: Updated now to 2.25.64, went outside to check out the maps (have had issues). All seemed fine, then I toggled to Way Point navigation to get a fix on my house, and went back to map view and the dreaded black and white squares were back! No amount of zooming in and out and toggling navigation options seemed to bring back the maps. Location: V&A Waterfront, Cape Town, South Africa.

I didn’t read that you are supposed to have 50%battery doing this update?? Im doing it on 7% and it’s still working is there any problem with this ?

Ignore this only the part for the app worked now I wants me to to in the watch to do some other update but it tells me you need 50% battery

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@LitchiMonster poi navigation you mean ?

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@LitchiMonster could you be specific? I tried poi navigation and no issues

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@gone-troppo yes 50% is needed. The app just pushes the update.

[babychai]

@isazi awesome and noted. really appreciate your info sharing.
overall so far map movement and smoothness really great

[LitchiMonster]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos from map screen, accessed by pushing on bottom button from the watch face, it all seemed in order. Then from the map screen I selected poi navigation, without starting exercise, and the map was replaced by black squares. I then exited this and Tried to access map by starting an exercis (walking). From within walking exercise, it still was not shown. Tried tuning map off and on, and changing maps styles from within walking exercise but still nothing.

[LitchiMonster]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos I can’t see the map at all now. Should I try anything else? Soft reset watch? Delete the “Western Cape” map region and re-install?

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@LitchiMonster Soft reset

[LitchiMonster]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos soft reset worked, thanks!

Should the small widget lag also be solved in this hotfix? It’s still there on my watch.

[Mitch9]

Can somebody tell me, what this improvement changes?

“Backlight behavior in DND mode improved”

[surfboomerang]

@Mitch9 I don’t know. Maybe it did lit up on notifications while it shouldn’t or the light wasn’t dimmed compared to the normal backlight setting.

I can’t remember I had any issues with the DND mode before.

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@Mitch9 when you have standby light on , then it is disabled during DND

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@surfboomerang next. Major refactor

[surfboomerang]

I don’t know if it’s a one time thing, but after the hotfix I opened the map. It rendered correctly. A few hours later, I was 30 km from the first location and I opened the map again. This time I got a black grid on all zoom levels.

Soft-reboot did fix it.
