New watch setup bugs report
-
Hello
My Race S has arrived and as Iāve gone through setting it up to match my 5 Peak Iāve noted a couple of bugs I thought worth reporting.
Firstly, when creating new sports modes in the app they arenāt showing up correctly on the watch in the initial activities list (swipe downward from watch face). I deleted some of the original entries but when I checked on the watch Badminton was still showing even though Iād deleted it. When I then went to setup some new activities I found the last one I created before checking on the watch would be missing but instead there would be a duplicate of one of the other activities. For instance, I created a āwalkingā activity with a label of āwith mapsā but instead on the watch I had 2 copies of the āRunā activity with the label ātrainingā. I can āfixā things by going to any activity and then changing the activity by scrolling down and selecting an alternative from the (correctly showing) list. When I then go back out to the general activity list everything shows correctly.
Secondly, I went through and deleted suuntoplus apps I donāt use and added a few I do use or would like to use. As I āremoved from watchā / āuninstalledā and unflagged and then flagged and added to watch various apps in quick succession I found the App UI slowed down progressively until it crashed out. This happened 3 times while I was working with the suuntoplus apps. I donāt know if this is more an app issue or a watch sync issue.
Thirdly, I wanted to flag that the alert/notification for an upcoming meeting is showing with the ācall endedā icon. Thatās the orange horizontal receiver icon with an X below it. I would not have expected this icon to be showing.
Lastly, which is more of a minor annoyance, when you change watch face the highlight colour keeps resetting back to orange.
Iām on firmware 2.35.36

One further bug Iāve noticed, just to add to the list
When you disable navigation (set it to āOffā) the setting isnāt remembered between activities for the same activity profile. I have a ātrainingā running profile I use for my structured workouts and every time I have to go turn off navigation as I donāt need it for structured workouts and donāt want the map display in my cycle of activity screens.
I can understand if other nav modes arenāt remembered but off vs on should really be remembered.
-
@far-blue I have the same issue, not remembering settings for same activity profile, but for the battery setting.
Am I correct in assuming you are using a custom activity profile? -
@far-blue only some of the activity preferences have a semi-permanent state, others (such as the navigation) do not have a state outside the activity profile itself.

@isazi navigation not being remembered is a bug I think, itās been mentioned many times, this was introduced a couple of firmwares back, this used to work
-
@herlas as far as I know, it is intended, and making it something that is remembered has been proposed internally.

@isazi got it, so it was a feature
