!!! IMPORTANT - PLEASE, RESTART YOUR WATCHES AFTER WATCHFACE UPDATE IF YOU HAVE SOME CONFIGURATION ISSUES !!!

Watch Face contains:

- maximum or sum or average kCals and km/mi (or steps)

Yes, I have 3.3 on my VA and my CIQ is 3.1 I've tried restarting both several times and still the the error and no changes to my watch face.

Uhmm, I don't have any idea at the moment. I'll try some tests on my VA later today. Can you try to uninstall and re-install ActiFace again (in case you already haven't tried it)?

Was my favourite watch face - thanks for all your hard work.
However after latest Fenix 3 update to Firmware 5.0 including IQ SDK 1.2.1 I just get a blank screen which then reverts to the standard 'boot up' digital delay.
Any help you can provide would be much appreciated

F3 fw 5.0 issue

Hi, SUPER watch face, i've update the Fenix 3 with fw 5.0, Garmin Express and the new ver of Actiface, BUT selecting "orange" color will crash the F3 and the watchface become the stack one; do you know about the issue with this color?

Hi, please can all of you had crashes with the latest firmware provide me info if you are using GCM for Android, iOS or just Garmin Express or if it crashed without any configurations?

Are you on ActiFace 2.0.4?

If so, can you post CIQ error log file from /GARMIN/APPS folder?

Thanks

Hi, what firmware do you have on your Epix? I've 2.93beta installed and ActiFace works fine. Have you installed the latest version 2.0.2 of the ActiFace?

I'm on 2.90 (latest release). I'm now having issues with my 920XT and AF.

Ok, so I tried to uninstall and got the same "Device Communication Error" immediately after I hit "uninstall" and for some reason it reminded me of the computer error that says it can't do a requested operation because the file is in use... hmmmmm...

So I went and changed my VA to a different watch face and went back in CIQ and hit update again on ActiFace... Bingo, No Error! Went and changed my VA watch face back to ActiFace and sure enough, the updates had taken hold.

Apparently it doesn't allow updates while it is the active watch face.

Thanks!

Fenix3 with official fw 5.0, GarminExpress PC ver 4.1.10.0 and latest ActiFace update (attached the log)

Petr.Koula over 9 years ago

Many thanks! :) Please, update your ActiFace to the latest version 2.0.5.

There is a bug in Garmin Express 4.1.10.0 causing that properties are propagated to the watchface incorrectly and the watchface crashes. I fixed these crashes, but settings via Garmin Express are still broken and some configurations don't work. This bug will be fixed soon in the Garmin Express version 4.1.11.0, so please, be a patient.
