Problem to inport Topo-GPS route to Suunto app may come specially topo-map and suunto app map sync problem perhaps? Does anyone else has this same problem to inport Topo-route? Another thing is that does Suunto App use Topo-maps?

@MC-Hall said in Is my Suunto 9 Baro Defective?: @Brad_Olwin If you’re not after accuracy why have a GPS watch at all? Just get a cheap stopwatch and guess how far or how fast your going. The whole point of a GPS is accuracy (data). It would be backwards to get a gps watch and not care to have accurate pace and distance information. If I wanted a “pretty good guess” then I can do that for a lot less money than the price of a premium GPS sports watch like the S9. I don’t think I’m asking for too much when I expect at least the same as older generations of technology. I wanted a forward step in technology with the Suunto 9 Baro. I haven’t seen this out of my S9, in fact I’ve seen the opposite. What am I asking from my S9 that is unreasonable? I had a Garmin Forerunner 220 many years ago that never failed me like my S9 has. Let not my sour tone give anyone here the wrong idea. I initiated this post to discover if there was a chance that my S9 was defective or had a problem that could be worked out. This wonderful community has provided some very helpful information that I am very very grateful for. All of you are awesome. Thank you! Yo dude, let me interpret the original post of our Mr Mode-UltraRunner-rator. he doesn’t need a good gps accuracy - so should you - he needs least 48h up to 80h, it’s why he loves s9 - so should you - you should buy a device like stryd to improve your tracker accuracy - (actually this person does have a stryd) if you have a couple of minutes, just look in MR DoSameAsHim 's replies histories. I’m so sorry about our Mr Mode-glass heart-rator. but you always have time to pick up your choices.

@PatBess I’m not 100% sure but I think @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos knows this kind of issue already and might have forwarded it to the developers. It’s not a brand new discussion for my info. We’ve had in mainly for non Baro watches where the offset is much bigger

@Brad_Olwin ok good idea .

@Sezer-Yiğit said in Suunto spartan locked while recording my run: And now it is evening and it is still turning and I still waiting for record my training. What can I do for stop it? Am I have to wait till the battery charge finish? And what is the problem? You can restart the watch, I think you should push simultaneously the central and top button for around 10 - 20 seconds. It never happened to me, maybe just a random bug

@Matouille I do not think there is any way to do this on the watch. You would have to have a route separately for each POI from point to point and then you would get the elevation between but not the cumulative for the entire distance. This is a forum for Suunto app and you are I assume asking questions regarding MC app, correct? You may or may not find an answer here.

@cs-eps The fastest way around this is download the fit file from SA and upload to Strava manually. I agree not an ideal solution but it works and as soon as it is in SA.

@Mi_chael said in How to create POIs in Suunto App: @Brad_Olwin Arff !! I need it in early November… Here is a solution! Import or draw a route with waypoints in MC web (If you want POIs you can add those here as well) Make sure you are synced to SA with the watch then force quit SA (it cannot be running in the background) Download MC app to your phone, you watch will be recognized and will sync to MC (make sure SA is NOT running first) Your route with POIs will be loaded into the watch but all sport mode customizations will be overwritten by MC. Force quit MC (not running in the background) Open SA and sync. The route will remain in the watch memory with POIs and your sport modes will re-sync. You will need to redo this over again to delete the route and replace “import or draw” in step 1 with “Turn off route” This works for me with S9 and S5, I don’t know about Ambits as I do not have one now and this was working with iOS but I think works the same for Android. I know, a clunky solution until we get POIs or waypoints in SA. I am currently using this for my races as I like to have waypoints for aid stations.

@Pierre-L Uploading a track is not possible. One can record with a device or with the phone app, otherwise you have to add manually. I tried a few sport modes for manual and none of them have altitude. Sporttracker has the same options, unfortunately.

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos It looks like it is RZE problem, QS map works correctly. I forgot to check it on QS. Thanks!

@zhang965 But after some hours it’s adjusted, correct?

Hi dude, What else you could beg a 5 years old electronic watch to give? Go get a s9

@zangge I’ve had this just before… Did you enter your email or did you also try with your username?

@Pierre-L probably until the end of October if all goes well.

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos I downloaded the Suunto app from the app store on my mobile phone in August, I assume this is the latest version

@bullei they know better for sure. Unfortunately I dont have a D5 to report any feedback atm. But next summer I might be more familiar

@vimegar On the HR side I agree

@Saketo-Nemo does it sync to 3rd party services?

@77alex77 the first value that comes is 0 and until the data are processed from the backend then it gets the correct number. Issue is under work.

@silentvoyager hi, please try to understand that we are talking about binary compressed data. The way S9 compresses data is more efficient than the A3 and does not mean it has less data. For example if you need you plot a straight line you can do that with only 2 points. You can also do that with infinate points and the result would be the same however, the efficiency should be better with the 2 points. We do not unpack the data in memory or anything like so. Nor will I currently in this thread that I need to help a user start a long conversation about technical stuff. The issue here is that the latest beta on Android has broken the sync retry mechanism and we halted the release. There is a hot fix coming for the users . I hope you understand.

can you provide a link to study what went on ?

« Flattening » 3280 feet is quite a big issue for me ! I’m very disappointed !

@margusl Oh i didn’t even know there was strava on web! I succeeded with the gpx-file now. Thank you very much!

@margusl iPhone 11 upgraded today with latest app upgrade also today, hasn’t worked yet

Have you tried the last version ? Should be 4.10
