Suunto 2.50.28 hot-fix Q4

Manuel Extreme

@Александр-Даниленко same problem on vertical 2

@Ecki-D. yup, the HR thing going offline happened twice with the latest update, and i’m having very erratic behavior when the watch turned iself of on multiple occasion last weeks, it “seems” to be ok now, i charged it again to 100% and let it idle on the charger for 2 more hours.
I had to find a “dumb” charger as the others wouldn’t charge the watch above 90ish percent (i think the current is too low and the charger goes offline, i’ve seen this especially on power banks

Since the latest update and the hotfix, I experienced the HR unexpected off three time… all the time I activated a soft reset and the sensor started to work again quickly.
Luckily I noticed the fact as I started the training record and the HR was not synced…
I hope a new hotfix could delete this annoying problem…crossed fingers here!

@misu763 It helps me to have the passcode function enabled.

So everytime the hr sensor fails, the watch thinks it is not on the wrist anymore and locks itself.
So as soon as I have to dial in the passcode I know something is wrong.

@Ecki-D.
Clever strategy! Thank you for the suggestion!

I have nothing exciting to note other than my alarms both went off 50 minutes later than planned today, on 9PP. I suppose it’s possible I snoozed them both 5 times or slept through them but I have doubts.

@Ecki-D. The OHR sensor doesn’t work for me either, the latest firmware. I restored it to 2.50.26 and it’s been perfect ever since.

@The_77 Any chance the watch face could have been touching your skin when the alarm was supposed to go off? The touch screen activates a moment before the vibration or sound does when an alarm goes off, making it possible to snooze or dismiss it without even knowing. It’s possible this could have happened 5 times if you didn’t move.

Old software required a button push to turn off or snooze the alarm. This is the way it should be. Not sure why it changed.

The_77

@duffman19 I mean, I was wearing long sleeves, so theoretically they could have been touching the surface, if that’s the case then it’s plausible.

I guess if it happens again I’ll find out!

After latest FW: ~1%/h drain in smartwatch mode (~4d total) 9PP.
• No activities
• GPS perf OK (~37–40h)
• Static WF
• Soft reset → no change
• Flight mode → still ~1%/h

HW seems fine → likely FW idle/deep sleep regression.

I think I’ll roll back FW.

Race S, no issues until the latest hotfix. Now issues with sleep detection. There is also no data on the watch. Should I open a separate thread?

@OutdoorMan no need to open a new thread. It is already known to Suunto, it seems… https://forum.suunto.com/post/185192

OutdoorMan

@2b2bff I see, thanks. Let’s wait then…

Ecki D.

Update – S9PP idle drain

Observed ~1%/h drain in normal mode.
In flight mode: ~0.25–0.5%/h (normal).
BT on (watch) + BT off (phone): normal drain.
Fully connected to iPhone: ~1%/h again.

So it seems related to active BT/App communication, not hardware or general FW idle.

Now testing with background app refresh disabled.

Will report back.

Hi everybody,
Does the North-up option work? I think I tried just after release of version 2.50.26 and it worked, but now on 2.50.28, it doesn’t work, even after a soft reset, any clue?

Just found small bug. The next alarm time in morning report is not right, because it does not reflect alarms set for workdays. I think it only counts with general time.
If I have set alarms for 6:00 and 10:00 on workdays and morning report shows up on saturday at 8:00, it shows next alarm at 10:00 but next alarm will be on monday at 6:00.
