Problem with the display of the charge status on Fenix 5X in version 24.10 after an activity.

After the activity has been saved, a completely incorrect charge level is displayed. The value for the state of charge then increases automatically over time without the watch being charged. In my activity "hiking", for example, from 40% to 52%.
I do not know whether the charge level is displayed incorrectly only after the activity or also during the activity.
Nevertheless this is a bug that needs to be fixed quickly.

Sounds more like your battery is showing it's age. (and garmin doesn't use very good batteries)

I've seen a similar issue on my Fenix 5. I've got the firmware update on Friday. Went on a short hike (~1h) on Saturday with a pretty fully charged watch. A day later, the watch's battery was 0%. Then I fully charged the watch yesterday. During the hours after charging, the battery status changed rapidly ~25% per hour. After the night the battery was "empty" (green arrow on display, like turned off?). After touching a button the display rose again and showed 1%, then 2%, 3%. Now the clock has been running at 3% for about 4 hours.

I think there is something wrong with the battery management/display of battery status in this release.

Thank god.. I was worried I would be the only one with this issue..... Thankfully I was able to roll back to previous rom version and the issue's reported here have gone away.. So for me it confirmed its the current rom release thats the issue.

Thanks a lot for your additional Information. In the meantime i informed the garmin support. Let's see when and whether the error will be eliminated.
