Software 2.9 Issues

Issues that I have encountered so far since the software upgrade this evening:

Alarm settings are still over ridden when syncing with GC mobile,

One of my watch faces no longer loaded, just showed the blue triangle, so had to uninstall and reload which resolved the issue.

4iiii Power Meter

Hi,

On version 2.90 my 4iiii power meter is no longer shown on the available sensors. I cannot connect to it and re-pair it either. Of course I am unable to calibrate it since it is not connected (Ant+).

I am able to connect and calibrate the power meter with my Edge 1000.

When I start the MTB activity on my Garmin 5X and ride the watch connects to the power meter, the information is displayed on the watch. The information is saved to Garmin Connect and passed on to Strava.

I just upgraded my firmware to the 2.95 beta to see if this solves the issue and will see on this afternoon's ride.

Australian Topo maps only work when no other map selected.

Confirmed by 2 members now. If I re-enable the cycling map contour lines vanish again.

Bluetooth Pairing

Not certain if this is a 2.9 issue, but the manual claims you can enter pairing mode by holding LIGHT button and pressing START/SELECT button. My 5x simply toggles BT on and off. It is paired to my iPhone and want to pair with a second device--no luck. Anyone else see this issue?

Alarms stay as they should for me, regardless of sync to connect or express. 2.9

Issue with routing via maps on fenix 5x. The remaining distance field displays the distance for direct routing. The elevation screen or map screen shows the correct distance as per the route on the map.

Just ask them to let the ability of insert the correct MSL pressure for barometer because mine is off of almost +3/4mb... It's a feature that takes only few minutes to implement... Correct pressure reading is much important for hiking and camping... after all is an outdoor watch...
