Software Version 6.00 Problems list

Hi
I would like to collect problem what we have in new version 6.0 on the f5x+
What i observed:
1) sleep pulse OX not works, but after few days works but for me only from 00.00 to 04.00 at night it means not all time when i sleep

2) LTHR long time i didin't see update but today after running 10km and pulse 175 Garmin Fenix ask me if I would like to update pulse 172 and speed 5:16, online,mobile is visible looks ok BUT in the watch fenix 5x+ show me LTHR from today 5:22 and pulse 172 these old information.

3) GPS+ gallileo i don't complain yet after update hardrestart and configuration what garmin suggest to put on the window 20 minutes and start run without change position watch.

4) Battery is perfect ONLY if you wil turn off pulse OX all day. From my experience :
IF pulse OX works all days + bluetooth with phone always on +GPS+galileo and running every day 1h battery stay only =4Days
IF configuration the same only turn of OX pulse more than 6 days now ( not yet complete test)

  • I must say - had I not picked up my 5x+ for less than 50% of new price - I would have returned it.

    Lots of bugs (5.1) and compared to 5x (non plus) it is like a very unstable big brother on Meth.

    Especially Bluetooth is absolute terrible compared to 5x (NonPlus) - range is about 1/2.
  • Bluetooth works OK but is depend of mobile I have issue with Bluetooth on all androids Below 8 and lower version 5.0 Bluetooth.

    BTW I see another issue LTHR when footpod always on distance /speed. Is not detect or different info in watch or app

    Fenix 5X+ ... no audio after spotify music download to phone ( restart needed ) ; no audio after 1 hour playing spotify . switching provider from spotify to watch => the same, restart needed.

    Watch activities is missing "Motorcycling" section from web page. I do hard ednuro so I need this ( dirtbike rally )
  • I can confirm that Sleep Pulos Ox NOT WORKING at all.
    In fact, if I do Acclimate All Day it only works for a few hours and then it stops, Manual works perfectly fine
  • I found another one thing,

    there is a problem with calibration of altitude during the night. (no activity calibration). in old version of firmware it was working time to time. in 6.0 I do not remember if my watch made calibration in the night. there was connection between watch and phone, but there was wrong altitude information in the morning.

    I’ve had too many issues to list, have now rolled back to V5.10 and so has my daughter....nightmare when travelling! I’ve been in consultation with Garmin help for over 2 weeks and no help whatsoever, had to do another full reset last night so decided to go the full roll back....no issues at all on V5.10...mapping good and authorised, music good and now syncing regularly again!
  • Pulse OX only works when doing in Manual.... I am still waiting for Garmin to reply
    Sleep never worked in either app nor web
    Acclimation never worked for me.
  • for me is works try hardrestart
