Software update 2.39.20 (2024 Q4)

Dimitrios Kanellopoulos

Hey first of all thank you all for the comments.

I hope it’s clear that we listen and we try to make the best out of what your feedback is. There is no good or bad feedback. All feedback is good. Just to be clear.

Let’s do some training tomorrow (idk I like Sundays to do some Xtra miles), and if it all goes well and internal testing shows that the build I am using (along with other testers) fixes the s9pp issue with ohr I’ll post it here so you can have it in advance of production release. Hopefully that’s the case.

Till then, rest , recover and thank you.

Software: 2.39.20
Device: Suunto Race Titanium
Heart Rate Sensor: Garmin HRM Pro (shown as paired)
FP Sensor: Stryd (shown as paired)
Power Management: Performance
Suunto Plus: ZoneSense
Potential issue: Infrequent heart rate samples - sporadic, a few points ever few minutes

Went on an easy 30min run as I’m recovering from a cold. First run with the new firmware.

Here’s an image of the samples from intervals.icu (below). Garmin Connect reports the battery as good in my HRM pro. I took the dogs on a walk with the HRM pro and the data was continuous.

@seanvk this looks bad. Is it in the app like this as well ?

seanvk

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos It is odd because it appears as continuous in the app, but when looking at the watch while running, the heart rate most just “----” most of the time and only sporadically had a value when I happened to glance at it at the right time.

Not sure how to IM, but I can send you my FIT file.

It looks like the belt doesn’t work well.

@seanvk I have a Garmin HRM Pro too, and this problem you observed happens to me from time to time as well, though very rarely. It’s due to bad connection with the chest strap, which can include poor signal (for instance if the strap is not wet). Make sure it’s not connected to your phone (if you have it with you while running), I disconnected it from Garmin Connect, too, and it works.

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Sorry to insist about the broken “Control panel” introduced by latest firmware, but may we also expect a fix for this issue in the next firmware update? Thanks a lot.

Sounds like this is the case.

Thank you!

Hi,
Apologies if this is somewhere further up the thread - I haven’t had time to read all the posts to check - but has anyone else found that the GPS (GNSS) run time on the S9PP has collapsed since the update?
I used my watch for an 8 hour run today and it used 51% of the battery (93% down to 42%) - which means it would struggle to last 15hrs. This is using the exact same settings - with an external hr monitor - that has consistently given me runtimes of 45-50hrs in the nearly 2 years I’ve had the watch (or, more accurately, two watches, because the first was replaced in January after the hr sensor cover failed a second time, so my current watch is about 11 months old).
I’ve checked that the backlight settings haven’t changed following the update and they haven’t - still set as low brightness, backlight (standby) and raise to wake both off.

Just piling on that the HRM is no longer working on my 9PP. Have to restart every couple hours, works for a bit, then nothing. Hopefully the fix is pushed very soon. Kind of defeats the purpose of the watch.

@pavel-samokha since the update Heart rate monitor, sleep track and co2 level stopped working on 9peak pro completely!

Where and how to downgrade the firmware back to the one of Oct. 2024. Because with that one, all worked fine.

Anyone information about how to downgrade a firmware? Using android app.

How to fix it , reset it to previous firmware from Oct 24, without deleting ALL my data?

Hi @SuperFlo75 @taziden @Александр-Даниленко @Francesco-Pagano @Janne-Leppamaki @The_77

Please send logs via the app and send me a private message with your email address used in the app to check the issue with OHR stop working.

Could you help me out ?

Having the same issue with the 9peak pro. Heart rate monitor, co2 level and sleep track stopped after last firmware update. Worked all fine before. How to send logs via the app to you and how to send private message?

Noone will die because of some days of missing optical heart rate

And yet it’s one of the core features of the sports watch. It’s not a minor inconvenience, some regression. It’s a feature that’s in the watch since the beginning and it’s not working as intended.

It’s not the case of some new feature that has been added for free.

It shouldn’t have happened and it’s a sign that the software hasn’t been tested enough prior to the release.

@Łukasz-Szmigiel Testing is always a balance. You could test for months and still not encounter a specific situation that triggers a bug or unforeseen behaviour.

Please note that it’s less than a week since the firmware release and the community beta testers have already hinted a fix is imminent.

There has also been zero suggestion the bug won’t be fixed as soon as possible so I see no reason to rattle sabres about missing core features.

Of course, because the fix needs to be thoroughly tested prior to release you will just need to be patient.

@gerasimos thanks ! (It;’s in Spanish but it’s well understood !!!)

I’m not sure that’s the best argument to convince. 🫣
