No, it's a Fénix 6 Pro Sapphire, but not X. I thought they would share the same files but if that's not the case that certainly explains things, thanks for clarifying.

Btw, does anyone know…

I don't have the previous version because I no longer have the watch.
Can't send you a PN.

I had problems to downgrade my Fenix 6 Sapphire from 28.02 to 27.73. I always put the gupdate file from the SystemUpdate_27.73 folder into the garmin folder on the watch but nothing happend. After a few days I tried the gupdate file from the SystemBackdate_27.00 folder then the installation process could be startet. I therefore conclude that you first have to downgrade from 28.02 to version 27.00 before you can upgrade to 27.73. Now my hearthrate sensor was working again correctly with 27.73.

Only the system backdate files can be used to downgrade firmware - thats what they are supplied for.

Thanks. But I have 6x pro, not pro solar. Wonder if these will still work?
