Suunto Vertical: Bug Collection

BrunoH

@helgonet12 I don’t think it’s about evaluation. Race and Race S have third party algorithms which cost money because of licensing reasons. Suunto would have to pay more if the same licensed algorithms were pushed to older Verticals. So this is what we get with Vertical although Suunto has been tweaking it better according to the users’ and field testers’ feedback.

@BrunoH thanks for your replay and I guess you are right. I’ll just have to wait for the successor of the vertical come. Thanks.

Hi, since the last update the HR sensor sometimes stop working when I am not wearing the watch (no data and the light are not blinking). In order to make it work again i have to perform a soft reset.

@Bouli35 that’s weird, it’s a problem I had months ago and it’s fixed now.

@BrunoH so i followed the resources a little bit more and as I can tell there are no tweaks made by Suunto that have changed it for me. It still goes up to 99 every morning no matter what I do. But since Suunto is not using their algorithm in their new watches after the vertical a suspect it will never change and it is what it is.

@Artus-Diver Hello Artus, for your information, since I added the 1km autolap when I swim with my Suunto Vertical I no longer have any problems with inconsistent durations in my swimming sessions. I also find that the stroke detection is slightly better. Is it better on your side?

Hey all,
When using other sports outdoor (sport non précisé outdoor), the elevation recorded by the watch is very unstable.
For example, from yesterday hike which was 3km with 250m d+, watch give me more than 800m of d+.

This has been observed with other activities.

When using Hiking sport mode, elevation is spot on.

Why is the elevation not correct when using other sports outdoor ?

Just had the new firmware update and since then, I have a quick black screen of around 1 sec before showing activities when pressing the up button from the watch.

@darxmurf
It’s related to the watch face, when you are waking the watch up.
Some have this glitch.

I’m using the good’ol “classic analog” and it works normally

@sartoric thanks for the info. Waiting for a fix then
