ActivityRecording createSession name=> not working in SDK 4

I have a problem with "name". This was working until I updated with SDK 4. Working with SDK 4.2.2 here's my code:

mSession = ActivityRecording.createSession(
{:name=>"Pickleball",
:sport=>ActivityRecording.SPORT_TENNIS});

The activity name used to be Pickleball now it is Tennis.

I also noticed the compiler says SPORT_TENNIS has been depreciated. There is no indication in the API documentation about this? I tried changing it to SPORT_GENERIC and the compiler again says the label is depreciated. However when I run it the name is Pickleball. Seems like a bug to me. When will this be fixed?

I changed one line in the record sample in the SDK. I changed the name to be "Pickles" and the sport to be SPORT_TENNIS.

I'm using 4.2.2 as well. Can I see your code? My code has been working unchanged since 3.1 . I don't understand why "Pickleball" would suddenly not work, but your "Phoenix Pickles" works?

Here's where in GC you can configure what's displayed

I changed the name and sport in the record sample in the SDK, ran it on a 255, and here's what I see:

In Garmin Connect you can change how activities are named when you view them. The default is the sport type, but you can also show the name for the activity from the device (that's how I'm set)

I never use the website but I just did and have the same issue there. If I set sport to tennis the name pickleball doesn't display. If I change the sport to generic the name comes through.
