@stromdiddily About Glonass, my vague memory was that it was not improving the GPS accuracy in most cases, only for some (very) specific regions. E.g. in Western Europe activating Glonass would result in a less accurate trace than without.
Am I wrong thinking that? I actually never tried it myself, no facts being my vague memory

Yeah I’ve seen similar claims. I have a few routes that I run a lot (woods and urban) so really just interested to experiment.

Still no way to set barometer for each activity (or in standby mode) or calibrate altimeter during activities. Since Movescount link is broken we can’t no longer set barometer (auto, altimeter or barometer) for each activities…

[SlaSh]

@renton82 you mean in suunto app sport customization?

[renton82]

@SlaSh Yes, or maybe from watch menu directly…

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@renton82 watch menu is coming

[renton82]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Thanks!

[renton82]

Also power off “button” would be nice… there are periods that i can’t use the watch and for me it would be better to switch it off instead of leave it discharging or remember to charge it, they are all useless charges cycles…

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@renton82 I would not leave a lithium device unused

[renton82]

Ok, but you could always leave it at 50% of charge for storage as i do with all my elctronic devices (cameras, drone, watches power banks etc…). It would be nice if you can let us a chance of choice…

[SlaSh]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos it is perfectly fine to leave it half charged and turned off, instead of leaving powered and letting it to discharge and be left discharged for prolonged time that can make damage to battery…

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@SlaSh if you let the watch off and the battery drops to actuall 0 you will loose watch memory as of time etc.

[renton82]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos But if you leave it at 50% and you switch it off it would be fine…

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@renton82 I think yes

Finally the S3F can record altitude information and display it in SA in the diagram Thanks Suunto and @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos

WOW - and SLEEPTRACKING also worked pretty well with the update on S3F - at least last night

[SlaSh]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos same will happen with powered on and discharged to 0.

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@SlaSh duh! but then you know that

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@Armin-S should also have stopped recording night steps or at least improved

[SlaSh]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos please commit that standby of spartan line watches is awful, I have to turn DND, turn on airplane mode, untoggle 24/7 HR, to have at least moderate standby if this is not done I cannot get more than 7days of standby, so please give me power off ability which could on 50% charge be kept for months… Imagine person who is having multiple suunto watches and you need to charge each every week this is not so convenient way of handling things…

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@SlaSh You do not have to turn DND mode on or airplane mode on. The watch standsby when not moved. Just put it at a place it does not get vibrations.

This is a thread about FW update

[SlaSh]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos additional workaround my last post about this and only one device I own which cannot be powered off
