in beta 13.24 there was Sensor Hub 6.61 in final release 13.30 it was 6.70?
Oh, wait, on the f5, they are combined into BLE/ANT/SNS
After installing 6.70 of BLE/ANT/SNS, the floors counting is highly unreliable. Sometimes it counts perfectly, sometimes it does not count floors at all. Is anyone else having similar problems?
yes, ohr is part of this
Do these Sensor Hub updates only appear on Garmin Express? Seems odd they don't appear in the Connect App update.
Garmin Connect works too ..
I'm on 13.30 and SH 6.61 on my Tactix Charlie.
No update available for me on Garmin Express. Must be a F5 only update.
**EDIT** After disconnecting from GE the watch then told me I had an update. So must have delivered via Connect and was waiting to install.
Hi, I bet it is only a coincident, because the BLE/ANT/SNS sensor has nothing to do with GPS chip and tracking. The latest version of GPS in F5 is 2.50, which remained intact. Maybe it is because the Galileo system is having problems (https://www.theverge.com/2019/7/15/20694395/europe-galileo-satellite-navigation-system-offline-outage-technical-incident).
No, OHR is not the part of BLE/ANT/SNS. The OHR has a separate driver/SW called WHR (wrist heart rate). Latest version of WHR in F5 is 20.03.31.

no, works well, anyway i changed to use only GPS since Galileo Satelites are off, now pace during running seems to be perfect too
Floor counting has always been poor on my F5X irrelevant of software. I set my target to just 1 per day and forget about it. Its not worth worrying about. The numerous Fitbits that I have had seem to have stairs/floor counting so accurate by comparison to the Garmin.
i have done exactly the same with target of one floor a day
not sure, but it helps, when you syncronise in the watch settings the GPS every day in the morning
