    Constantly flashing 'connected'

    When I activate this watch face my Fenix constantly flashes up with 'connected', help!

    Seconds issue

    Great watch face! The only issue, that is preventing to use it all the time - seconds field is unreliable and freezing (let's say on 32 second) Fenix 3.

    Resetting as well

    That's right, my also resets, about 3-5 times a day. You can use the watch, just slightly irritated. On the occasion of improving take a look at this phenomenon ;-)


    Mine does this as well. The 2.0.4 update seemed to help in that it didn't reset for about 3 days, but then this morning it has been resetting again. :(

    Also, the activity history graph hasn't been working very well for me. It shows a single day multiple times on the graph. For example, in the attached picture it shows a lot of Sundays (SU) instead of the other days of the week.

    I just downloaded this watch face today and I must say, I love it!


    Two issues though:

    - Seconds are unreliable. Basically unusable.

    - The am/pm doesn't work. It just passed noon here, and it now reads 12:05 AM, which obviously isn't right. It's like the am/pm just doesn't change.


    ETA: It actually just updated to "pm" at 1:03pm. So it took an hour roughly. Not complaining, just giving some data in case it helps.

    It's just Great. Two problems I see with Forerunner 235:

    It's just Great. Two problems I see with Forerunner 235: 1. Battery says 98% when it's loaded 100%. In the Digital clock 100% is shown. 2. The seconds display gets frozen in every few seconds. The display re-continue to count again (updating) only when I move the wrist to "wake up" the watch. If It can be set to be shown and updated always - like the time - It'll be great! Thanks.

    Has anyone else noticed accelerated battery consumption with this watch face? I normally burn 10% or less of my battery per day, on my F3 HR. I charged it to 100% last night around 6pm, and now at 8:30am I'm already sitting at 94%.

    Normally, I'd just now be sitting at 96-97%. I know it doesn't seem like much, but the battery is definitely draining faster.


    Is that just par for the course with such a detailed watch face?


    Thanks in advance!



    ETA: It is now 11:45am and I'm sitting at 91%. Battery drain seems VERY accelerated with this watch face. Is this normal?

    I have some question and need your help

    Thanks for developing this interesting watchface

    I've use forerunner 235 model and also downloaded this watchface
    I have some question about 'activity history' screen
    As i noticed in your cover for this watchface and see

    "The data row3 (under time row), you can set whether STEPS, DISTANCE as well as KCAL" with HISTORY PROGRESS at row 4
    I want my watch forerunner 235 to show that kind of screen, too.

    Please suggest me how to set those screen, or i think that is it related to my model ? Those kind of screen can apply only FENIX model ?

    Please reply this question

    Thanks for advanced

    I have confirmed that "pm" doesn't show until after 1pm, so the time between 12pm and 1pm is still shown as being AM.


    So, there must be something in the code making the watch face think the time between 12 and 1 is still am.

    It is now 5pm, so 23 hours later, and I'm sitting at 86%. This watch face pretty much doubles my battery consumption which is a shame. I can normally get almost 2 days worth of running before I'm down to 86%.

    Can anyone else tell me if they saw drastically increased consumption with this face?

    I'm bummed, because this is definitely my favorite face, but I'm not sure I can live with this level of consumption.

    Well, I had to ditch this watch face sadly. I just can't live with 15% battery drain in 24 hours.


    I'm pretty sure the issue is that the face refreshes constantly. If I take a few steps, the step counter goes up immediately. Same with calories.


    Why not set the face to refresh every minute like basically all others? It really isn't necessary to have it refresh that often in my opinion. At the very least, I'd love to have that option.


    I really, really like this watch face. I hope that the developer is watching this and can figure it out. Right now I'm using another which I don't like nearly as much, solely because it doesn't drain the battery like crazy.
