Manual Firmware Update

@doug-h said in Manual Firmware Update:
@isazi I am unable to find anything relevant to this specific watch and to locate the actual firmware to download. This is the third Suunto watch I’ve had now and they have all had this bug. Perhaps it’s time to change allegiance!
If you can point me in the direction of the firmware and the procedure, that’d be great.

@andré-faria Thanks. I’ve downloaded the firmware. I was expecting release notes but there aren’t any. I’ve read that you just copy the files ‘into’ SuuntoLink but that doesn’t work. How do I force a manual upgrade?

You have to drag and drop the zip file with the firmware in the gear icon in Suuntolink whilst the watch is connected of course, do not unzip the file. For the release notes you can go to Suunto’s web page.

@doug-h make sure you have the correct zip file, S9 baro has different file than the S9 non baro.
-
@cosmecosta How will I know if I have the correct firmware? I do not see a place where they are all listed
-
@cosmecosta Is there a repository of the various firmware? I have a S9 Baro. I guess it’s already useless to me but it would be nice to have it working for a 4 day alpine trip I leave for tomorrow. I mean, that’s why I bought the watch!
-
@andré-faria Is there a repository of the various firmware. I want to ensure I use the S9 Baro one. I’ve downloaded these two but have no idea which watch they are intended to be installed on.

https://firmware.geo.movescount.com/production/Lima-fw_2.16.26.4053-F.zipAs it stands now, I’ll need to send my watch in but it would be nice to have an operable one for tomorrow when I leave on an alpine trip.

others may confirm but I think ibiza is S9 Baro.

@andré-faria true

@andré-faria Thanks to everyone for the comments. It appears I have a brick with a wristband; it’s my third one. Suunto seems to have a systemic problem with their initial code if multiple watches in different models all do the same thing. After a number of years I would have assumed these known issues would have been corrected. My latest firmware crash happened when the watch was being a watch - not even being worn.
In any case, I have tried the ibiza 2.14 and 2.16 firmware releases and neither will install manually. I will be sending the watch in, unfortunately. I do hope there isn’t a charge for service for a known firmware issue but I guess I’ll find out.

@surfboomerang I wasn’t expecting Gdańsk 0_o. I wonder how the names are chosen, random or by some key
S9PP 2.37.48

If you do hard reset of watch, can be done directly from suunto link, it will download and re-flash correct latest firmware for your device. No need to download it manually.
-
@łukasz-szmigiel The interesting thing ist, that watches D, E and J, K were never released.
Wonder what they hwould have looked like?
t6, S6, Elementum Terra, Ambit 3 Sapphire, Spartan Ultra Copper, Traverse Alpha, S7 Graphite LE, S9B Ambassador, S9P Granite Blue Titanium, S9PP Titanium Sand, Vertical All Black, Race Titanium Charcoal, Race S All Black, Race S Titanium Canary

@egika maybe just didn’t find city with that letter on map in allocated time frame

@egika scrapped? Or waiting still?
