I install the beta version 20 in 5x manually.i use stock watchface and only 1 app-sendpoints-..i charge my watch before 8 days .now i have 60%left...24 hours per day smart notification,no heart rate ..i am not at home so i didn t train ,so no gps ...great battery for me ...the next days i ll start activities..i ll update the post...maybe the solution to battery drain is to flash beta mannually and use stock watchface
Wondered if anyone has found this has got any better?
What happened with me could be a coincidence. I bought a 5s about a year ago. It broke recently (water ingress). Anyway, Garmin sent me a new replacement. Since I had this AND updated to version 20 the battery life is terrible. In watch mode with no activities it lasts about 3 days max. Used to be about a week or more easy.
I've checked the screen version and I don't see that 3.30! thing. Any other ideas. Could it be that Garmin sent me a duff replacement?
I have fenix 5s plus sapphire. Up to a few weeks ago battery would last up to a week with my usual habbits. Recently, battery started draining rapidly and now it needs to be charged every day. It drops up to 40% daily with no activity or gps or tracking. Up to 20% per night. I removed additional watch faces and even all the widgets that I do not often use, cleaned charging pins with alcohol and powered off/on both warch and app. Put the most basic watch face I could find. Few days ago I tried to update it using garmin express but it is up to date. All with no success. I am frustrated now. I do not see any versions for the display, software is 12.0
I went back to 12.40 version from v15 not v20 cause then started the battery drain problems. I keep reading that problems still persist in v19 an v20. Don't know if you can rollback from v20 to v12.40 Found all firmwares in that website but it no longer works...http://gawisp.com/perry/
