Software update 2.39.20 (2024 Q4)

@ChrisA Danke Chris ja ich habe ihn wirklich falsch verstanden

@Brad_Olwin As I wrote yesterday at noon: âThe argument âThe old hardware is simply too weak for this calculationâ is one that I can understand and accept.â Iâm aware that four years is a very long time in the world of electronics. I also had no intention of disturbing or dragging out this thread in any way. I was/am simply a bit frustrated, thatâs all. Itâs just my personal feeling. If I used any terms incorrectly, Iâd like to apologize for that.
When I said, âThe S9P is no longer supported,â I meant that there will be no more updates for this watch. I thought I had specifically referred to the watch and not the app. And I never said that âitâs not trueâ that the hardware canât support ZoneSense (or other features). At the beginning, it was always about âthe operating system of the watchâ and the fact that the old operating system will simply no longer be developed.
In my understanding, there is a difference between a feature not working because it isnât implemented in the software (the operating system) and a feature not working because the hardware canât handle it. Saying âThe feature doesnât work because it hasnât been implemented in the softwareâ also means âWe could make the feature usable in the software.â But as I said, if the hardware doesnât allow it, I fully agree with you that it is what it is.
Actually, I wanted to send you, Brad_Olwin, a personal message with this content to avoid holding up this thread any further, but I couldnât find that option. And I couldnât just leave your words as they were. So, please excuse this wall of text, which has no relevance to the current update. I wonât comment any further. I meant no offense to anyone.

Found idly something useful out today - when using button lock in activity, you can hold the middle button on the map page and it cycles to the previous page like with every other one, where the default behaviour with button lock off is to adjust zoom levels.
Given that I very rarely actually adjust zoom levels I guess Iâll have button lock on by default now to save me skipping forward all the way to get to the page before the map one.
Iâm sure other people have already noticed, given this was the case on the previous FW apparently.
-
I have the impression that the battery drain problem is back⌠a few days ago I looked at the map during an activity, since then I lose 5-6% per day⌠I send logs (16.57) and then do a soft reset.

Another data point.
New Suunto Vertical, purchased on 16.01.2025, latest software version v2.39.20 claiming to have fixed the HR issues in release notes. It worked ok for past week and today the HR sensor stopped working, didnât record my sleep. After rebooting the watch it went back to normal.How is your experience with latest software version? Is HR really fixed?
-
@bbartlomiej Did it stop after having charged the battery? In my case HR and sleep tracking stopped after first charge with the new FW.
-
@bbartlomiej FW 2.39.20 (latest one for Vertical) introduced the HR and sleep tracking bugs that you see discussed in many recent threads. Currently, the problem is âsolvedâ only for 9PP (the most affected by this problem) with a downgrade to a previous FW. A fix for all watches should hopefully be released this month according to statements reported in this forum.
-
Does the red dot in SuuntoApp next to the firmware version mean anything or is it there just like that? When I click, it says that the firmware is anyway up to date.
-
@kriskus interesting. I have never seen that dot before. It has appeared for me also.

I would like to report a new crazy behavior of my SV which I see since the last update. As for me the battery drain issue is not solved yet, I had to charge my SV today after only 17days⌠when I put the watch to the charger, the charging screen appeared on the watch display, but there was no change of the charging level for about 5 minutes⌠normally I could see the first increase of the charging level after max. 1 minutes! After a soft reset, everything was normal, and the watch is charging as expected. I recognized this behavior some weeks before, I think I charged 2 times since the last software update⌠and as it seems to happen every time I charge, I now report it here. I never recognized that this behavior was reported hereâŚ
-
@SuperFlo75 I can confirm I have had this behaviour as well. But not every time. It seems to me it happened when I was charging with lower remaining battery (under 30%) but I am not sure about that.
-
@ZdenÄk-HruĹĄka @SuperFlo75 Iâve seen this behaviour with previous firmwares too, mainly if I was downloading maps.
I charged mine 2 days ago without issues, battery level was 17%.In my case battery drain has been solved, 29days with 4/5 hours of GPS per week, 1 per week without GPS and around 6/7 hours of maps in total. Backlight, 24/7, sleep and notifications off. No sun either, so no solar charge.
Since I have the watch this has been the best battery consumption that I ever have had.
-
@ZdenÄk-HruĹĄka I recognized this behavior the last 3 times I wanted to charge⌠not before. I always charge from a level of about 5-10%⌠so I canât give a statement if the behavior is different when charging from a higher level
-
@SuperFlo75 I always charge below 30%, otherwise the alarm clock no longer works.

Having some issues with my SV recently. No apparent reason. Last update was in December (2.39.20).
Last Friday, did a Treadmill session. Watch totally failed to track that. Usually there are some differences between the watch and the treadmill (maybe 1Km difference in a 10Km run).
However, this time, watch was tracking 30min/Km pace, when I was running around 6:30m/Km. Mega fail.The next day, Saturday, for first time, HR stoped working. It seems the issue is not only affecting the S9PP.
This required a soft reset to have HR working again.Two days after, yesterday, another treadmill run and another 30min/Km session. I stoped the session and started a new one, hoping that might solve it but nothing, continue tracking my session at around 30min/Km.
At the end, I manually adjusted the distance. However, that doesnât have an impact on TSS.
Thus, one of those sessions is now a 6.05Km distance and 40 min long, with 477Kcal, 7585 steps and 2 TSSr!!!Canât see why this has started happening now, again, no recent watch updates.
Maybe next time I would take my old S9B as a backup and comparison!
