  • Since this beta my lap swim activities doesn't upload to Strava. They told me that there was no change on Strava side. ANyone had the same problem?
  • Same issue here, my swim was not uploaded to strava. FW v11.57, SH v6.24

    I just sent an email to report this to the beta team, but not sure if it's linked to Fenix5 FW or to garmin connect. Other activities seem to be uploaded correctly to strava.

    I just sent an email to report this to the beta team, but not sure if it's linked to Fenix4 FW or to garmin connect. Other activities seem to be uploaded correctly to strava.


    Same issue here but coming over as a visitor from the 5X forum. We are seeing the same issue with the 11.57 FW. And yes, please report to [email][email protected][/email], they aren't monitoring the forums.
  • Got a reply form the beta team, they are looking into it.
  • The same here - np synchro to strava

    Still no file 2.64 for sensor hub
    :(

    Same issue here. Strava confirms that they are looking into the issue.

    And when trying to open the swim workout from Apple Activity App, the App crashes.
  • Same issue here, but there was an update to Garmin Connect this morning (iOS) that fixed the issue, My swim training was then laoded correctly to the watch.


    Still a very big issue here - I have updated the App, but still not able to send workout/training to the watch - extremely annoying...
    i have also tried to logout of the App and login again without luck and I have tried to reboot the phone and watch several times.

    i have even tried to download the TrainingPeaks App to the watch to get workouts onto the watch this way - but that App just “hangs” in the its logo/start screen...

    So annoying, when most of my training is done using this feature...

    Please advise.

    Odd, Sensor hub 6.24 Gives me double-floor counts, only apparently when I am not checking. Today I have 124 floors, but should *maybe* have about 58-60. When I test on my driveway (105' diff or so) I do get 10-11 floors. Today's lunchtime hike with a 554' gain plus maybe 4 flights of stairs should NOT be 124 floors. I forgot to log the current floor count before starting the hike.

    Is there any record of what has changed in Sensor Hub releases so we can look closer? I will try the newer 6.25 and see what happens.

    Note: I downloaded the latest package with the 6.25 Sensor hub in it, but the folder in the zip file is still marked 6.24. I updated just the Sensor Hub file, and the revision is reported at 6.25 now. Will try floor counts AGAIN, but I will try to log some stuff for better record if it messes up again, and how.
