And on top of all, wrist HR was spot-on in today’s run. Even in colder weather.
Unfortunately it wasn’t the case on todays run. It was spot-on for the first 29 minutes an then dropped 30-40bpm for about half an hour. After that it climbed back up…

How do you roll back the update? I’ve had watch connection issues since I first installed this update. And my watch doesn’t sync with the app after activities anymore
And if I do a forced stop of the app it can’t connect to the watch again and I have to re-pair it
-
In my case, the update enhanced the GNSS accuracy while running in dense areas (at least in my city
).The oHR is a bit more sensitive (even more flimsy I would say) on a non-exercise situation. I haven’t tried it during exercise since I typically use an HR belt for that.
Th watch face with the large numbers looks quit good , but the complication of the steps which is fixed … is not really what I would have added (1stly the step counting is not accurate enough, 2ndly it’s pointless to have it )

interesting to see that some downvoted my view on the new firmware …

@MiniForklift oh well. It’s just another six or twelve months and it’ll get fixed. Probably
S9PP 2.37.48

These random */bugs/ are inevitable. That’s what digital technology and code are all about: solving problems and creating new ones! However, after an idyllic month with my S Race, I have to admit that if I’d received my watch after this update, I’m not sure I’d have kept it: the reported problems with the brightness and legibility of the screen during exercise are critical for me. When I’m trail running, the watch has to display the data legibly when I raise my arm, so I can’t afford to have to read it with difficulty. I hope this point will be resolved as a matter of urgency. The ultras are coming up and it would be a real shame to approach them with such frustration. The rest is much less important in my practice (but we all have different expectations and that’s quite normal
).
But I have every confidence in the Suunto team

@ODo67 and the same applies to the cycling mode, yesterday I had my second trip with the new firmware and it’s a complete disaster to look at the blacked out screen
-
@Durri The only way (still to dark for me) to keep dimmed display and avoid complete black display at the moment, is to turn on AOD before starting activity. But note! It still works only, if you are using one oh f the 3 new watch faces! Otherwise AOD setting will not help either. It’s a BUG!
-
@ppresing Thanks for the tip, what is AOD?
Suunto Race Titanium, Suunto 9 Baro Titanium, Polar V800, Vostok Anchar Europe Titanium, Hoka One One, Focus Atlas 6.8, Rose Pro SL, Giant Roam 2

@Durri Always on display. Screen always turned on.

Hmm, I have AOD turned on always and don’t experience blackouts of the screen during activities. And I use the original Race watchface - not one of the 3 new ones.
Guess we are not all affected equally (as it often the case with bugs).

Better in 12 months than never, just like in Garmin
-
@Durri Always On Display = AOD (located in Control panel)
-
@ppresing Tried and tested AOD with the original Race dial, and it works! The backlight is nothing extra, but better than a dark screen. Thanks for the tip

@Durri said in SOFTWARE UPDATE 2.33.12 - Q1 2024:
In the next update S. Race, how about leaving the option to choose the backlight of the screen when choosing cycling: off, weak, strong. Or start cooperating with companies like Wahoo, Sigma… and bring the possibility of synchronizing third-party devices with the Suunto app.
The Race does not have a backlight. What exactly do you mean? I guess you mean the dreaded shit change that AOD is now taken from general use into sports use …
Yes. If data from Wahoo or generally any TCX file could be imported into Suunto, there wouldn’t even be the necessity to record with both devices… That’s also a really bad design choice for an ecosystem of a vendor who does not even offer specific cycling devices…
-
@Olaf-Gottschalk Yes, I meant AOD light intensity…I really like the Suunto app itself and would hate to leave it. I’m already thinking about the Sigma Rox 11.1 just to display driving data when nothing will happen from Suunto for a long time. Maybe I’ll look weird
on a Sigma bike and a Suunto measurement on my hand but what can I do…I’ll wait two weeks… -
@Olaf-Gottschalk The Suunto platform from an API perspective does allow uploading of activities, there’s just no capability in the app to do so. A solution I’ve used is Runalyze, which you can connect to Suunto and provides an “Upload FIT File” on the Suunto connection. Once uploaded the activity just appears like any other in the Suunto app.

@ODo67
I’ll re-report it

I learned today that the pause reminder feature acts as a “don’t forget to end” feature as well.
When I started a windsurf activity today, the wind wasn’t strong enough yet so I was just floating around a little bit. After a while the wind picked up and speeds went up from 10km/h to 50km/h. At that moment, the watch vibrated and reminded that abnormal speeds were detected and if I want to end my activity. Oh no my dear watch, this is where the fun begins. We’re not going to end the activity now
Luckily the message is only once after each start or pause. Still a great feature Suunto

@freeheeler Thanks
