Hopefully this means the first "test" batch of public units goes out soon (aka, the first preorders).

Anybody remembering with which fw version the Fenix 3 was released? I don't think it was a 0.xx fw?

0 pprimoz over 8 years ago

I believe that in my archive are all FW versions of F3.
And the very first is from February 2016, Fenix3_200.rgn

Can you tell if it is the same file for 5/5S and the 5X?

0 mcbadger over 8 years ago

Garmin usually label the initial release firmware 2.00; 0.xx and 1.xx are non-public development versions. Sometimes it's later than 2.00, presumably if they've ended up making last minute changes before release. Source, my vague memory of a Garmin engineer's post in the mists of time :)

All version releases listed here (and downlaodable): https://www.navigation-professionell.de/aktuelle-updates-garmin-outdoor-gps-geraete/#fenix3

So Fenix 3 first offical release was sw v. 2.10

0 bloom34 over 8 years ago

Haven't seen it show up on REI website yet so its at least still 30 days out for them.

SW v2.00 http://gawisp.com/perry/fenix_D2_tactix/Fenix3_200.rgn

0 WillCW over 8 years ago

Yes, I am sure 2.20 was first sw release for first shipping.
See Garmin site if yoy want to confirm this http://www8.garmin.com/support/download_details.jsp?id=7623
Scroll to bottom and you will see.
Those earlier versions may hvae had some public availability but if you don't have the watch (as in first ship) ...

Has anyone seen a new FW for the 5X yet? There are new FW's for the 5 and 5s (2.00) dated Feb 2, but I don't see any for the 5X other than the 0.88 version dated Jan 27. (I haven't searched very thoroughly though).
