Instinct 2S completely hangs with BLE bg wf

i'm developing a BLE background watchface and am seeing complete watch hangs on Instinct 2S after about 1 to 2 days of running the wf (and I believe FR 965M but I have stopped testing that due to its inadequate battery.)

i'm not sure which connect iq calls are causing this but i will try to gather more info. since it happens so infrequently (i've seen it at least 3 times and have never been able to get past 2 days of runtime so i'm sure i'll see it again), i'm starting this bug report now anyway to see if others have seen it.

the only thing i can do to the watch after the hang is hold the light button for a long time to power it down, it responds to nothing else and does not update the wf at all.

  • the fr165 hangs (complete watch hang) with scan-only mode just like the instinct2s did, which means anyone with my app should be able to see it, so if Garmin is listening they just have to reach out and i'll send them my source. i've wasted way too much time on this so am giving up on forerunner/instinct and will continue with the (super expensive) fenix option.
