After update to 5.1. and installing Spotify I found out Altimeter Barometer and Thermometer does not work. It shows only ---. I am able to calibrate altimeter with gps but I can do nothing about Barometer and Thermometer.
Ok. Ambient Pressure (which appears to be "okolitý tlak" in Slovakian) comes more or less directly from the pressure sensor in the watch. Elevation and Barometric Pressure are calculated values, based on the ambient pressure.
So if Ambient Pressure is missing, there is a high possibility that you have a defective pressure sensor, and not just some software calculation gone wrong.
As far as I know from earlier Fenix models, the temperature sensor and the pressure sensor is the same hardware component in the watch, and when one fails, the other often fails too. I think this is the first time I have read about a Plus model having a defective pressure sensor. (I actually waited for this model before buying because the F5 seemed to have these problems.)
I removed Spotify using Garmin Express, then restart, switch on/of watch. Altimeter shows directly after turning on (which did not before, I have to use gps before), Thermometer and Barometer NOT. I have RESET watch to default settings. Still does not show Thermometer and Barometer data, Altimeter is fine. I am afraid it really might be a defective pressure sensor :/
When reset to default settings, I still got software 5.1, is there any way to downgrade it? Maybe this is only issue of 5.1 because this happend after updating soft to 5.1. and downloading a spotify app.
I've experienced a few weird issues installing Spotify, but after about three days, all my sensors and Spotify seem to be working. It actually took me three days to actually get the sync to not issue a Sync Failure message(another user mentioned the same). In that time, I saw Spotify say it was syncing 1 small playlist and running the watch dead, the watch completely locking up. At one point while trying to uninstall the app, I could not get it removed via Garmin Connect(Uninstall Fail, in RED, was the message I think), and had to use Garmin Express.
I checked all my sensors, and all seems settled and working at the moment. I'm afraid to touch it now.
Did you have the same issue with thermometer and barometer please? I did uninstal spotify, made a reset to default settings and it still does not work. Thank you
st_svk If you are continuing to have issues with your device, please reach out to us at Garmin through our Product Support channels (phone, email, or chat) so that we can work with you directly.
Any update on this issue? I've got the exact same problem. I've been in contact with Garmin.Support who have asked me to reset the watch, which I have done several times without any effect on the problem. I've asked for a replacement so hopefully they will send me one.
