Red flashlight no longer working after update

Hello,

I have a Fenix 8 AMOLED. Just updated to the new 12.22 update, and now the red flash light on my watch doesn’t work. The white still seems to work fine at every brightness interval.

Anyone else experiencing this issue?

Just tested it and it works on mine. Perhaps try a reset.

Unfortunately a power cycle and a factory reset did not fix the problem.

Is it possible to roll the software back to the previous version ?

Can you set the red light to blink/strobe?

Not sure, if I know how. I cpuld not change the colour of the white flash.

I set it to Red light, got the option for strobe. It's strobing in white.

white strobe work fine. red strobe does not work. The watch thinks the red flash light is on, but it's not. I doubt it's a hardware failure but I've tried all the software fixes, and nothing worked so I'll probably exchange it for a new one at

It's a software bug.

Can you strobe in red? I see no option for this, otherwise it all works fine
