So the two above (phellan/SAHO) were lucky enough to be in the 20%?

Also is there a change log from 6.72 to 7.1? Or is it more or less the same release.

A step by step release of a new software version is not a "bad " thing. It helps to sort out last minute "glitches" and not all users are affected. But - at least for me - it would be helpfull to get also the information about the planned time frame of this period (3 days, 1 week, 1 months?) and how the 20% of the users are selected? By random? By country? Will it be 20% now and than 40% and so on, or after the 20% the full 100%?

I feel "uncomfortable" with the minimized information, not by the fact that the new version is released to 20% of the users and I am not included (maybe I am lucky because of it... ;-) ) and also that there is no information about the difference between 7.10 and the last beta version. Ok from the changelog of the beta versions and the changelog of the official 7.10 I do not see much difference (but I was not going through line by line), but a small note about it would not hurt, just to make it easier for us to understand it more easy - and maybe lean back and relax because the last beta is allready 99% of the new official version.

Best regards,

dreamteam

I installed the 6.72 beta on my Fenix 5X Plus and was able pair one golf club with a Approach CT10 sensor to my watch. When I tried to add the next club from my bag - in a well-lit room - it was not able to pair and it kept saying “Searching for club sensor” and “Hold club with grip pointing up” for more than 10 minutes. Have changed sensor battery, mounted it correctly with negative facing the inside of the cover, and the two notches are aligned. I put the club back in the bag and tied several other clubs one at the time, but they were not able to pair.

Out of 17 CT10's, I have 4 that would never pair regardless of all the techniques you've tried. I'm using a Fenix 5X running latest production release 13.0. From a pack of 3 three, I had 2 bad and from a pack of 14, 2 bad also.
