SW update 2.37.34 Q3

mlakis

On the Race watch face, the seconds complications never “fall to sleep” like before.

The pointer version changes every five seconds, the number version updates every second.

Is this a problem? Will it use more battery/energy?

Egika

@mlakis in Race the Amoled display is drawing more current anyway. So there it is a question of always on or not.
The data update makes no big difference.

@JonasLarsson these are staged usually so not everyone gets it at once

Hello!

I have checked and this bug with swimming still exists:
https://forum.suunto.com/topic/11004/software-update-2-35-34-q2/403

I would suggest suunto to do something with this screen:

Even if not to fix it, but at least maybe remove it, because now it is useless, but ocuupies one screen.

But the best option could be to give possibility to add it as one screen manually in custom sportmode or maybe make it as alternative look for the suuntoplus app “Swim timer”.

Could anyone tell me if they fixed the always-on breadcrumb option? I mean, on the pre-activity screen, the breadcrumb is always turned on (for the last two releases), even if you didn’t use it during your previous activity. And have you noticed any changes in battery consumption? Thanks

I’m interested in this, too. We’ll see soon, if nobody else is going to report it!

@Pavlas
I guess it is, or there is something strange going on in that list

@isazi
Maybe it doesn’t recognize I have a Solar model, so the missing complication ?

Ok, I was partially wrong

The VS wf is in the watch only, not in the App list
But the complication is missing for the “app wf” it’s there just for the VS specific one
I was using it in the"classic analog" one

No, I do not even think it is a bug, it is just one option that is not remembered and breadcrumbs is the default.

And have you noticed any changes in battery consumption? Thanks

No, new firmware release coming in a couple of weeks for that.

@Kevin-Major no, an hotfix is coming to the Ocean for diving related bugs only. Later more features will come.

@Clément Lavabre
I have this issue before installing the update (update not downloaded yet) - and have restarted my watch but it persists.
how do you fix this ?

Clément Lavabre

@aleupa42 I’m going to send it to the repair center, this is the fourth time since I got it that it has gone there, and second time for this problem, really disappointed with the Race and the repair service

@isazi @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos
Ok, it seems that the solar complication is available on “big round” set (like the right one in modern analog) but as someone previously said, adding the status text to the bottom made it very less useful and readable.

mlakis

@Egika, sorry for not clarifying.

I meant the Race watch face on the Vertical watch.

Previously this updating was not happening and seconds where hidden after some time of inactivity.

@Clément-Lavabre
Thanks for the quick reply. I only have the watch for about a week and until this I was happy.
But I think I will send it back, I don’t feel that it is worth the risk in holding on to it.
I hope it works out for you and it gets resolved.

Hi,
And there’s still this ring around one of the data fields that you can’t remove or change on the watchface Modern Analog. I think that was reported as a bug the last FM update.

stromdiddily

This is a pretty awesome update actually. Love the alarm easter egg found earlier, and the TbT updates.

@Jonas-Vestberg as far as I know, that is not a bug but the design of that watch face.

jjorgemoura

@isazi Do you know if this update fixes the battery mode, not remembering the last setting used?

I can see that the battery mode is now one level deep so, if at the start of any activity I need to update the battery mode from custom back to performance, I will need to go deep several levels and perform several clicks. Very frustrating. This was never an issue in my S9B.

Wow, I am really surprised by this because it’s clearly a bug. It’s tiny, but it’s annoying to always have to turn off this option. If the state of every other menu is saved, then why does ‘navigation’ work the other way around? Sure, in some cases, this option might be useful by default (e.g., hiking), but this bug affects every sport mode with GPS settings, even frisbee

isazi

@false default is breadcrumbs because if default was “off” 90% of the users would complain that maps do not work for them. And what if a user uses route navigation once, why should that be remembered? Do you always navigate the same route? I think this is the best default.

Jonas Vestberg

@isazi Ok… thanks for the fast reply. It’s strange to have a ring in just that data field that you can’t remove and in a colour you can’t change.
Anyway… I have a Vertical and it’s an awesome watch and I appreciate all the work you guys are putting in to this!
