watch faces from IQ are causing a problem for the flashlight

Marek83 3 months ago

Hello

When downloading and selecting any watch face from IQ, it causes problems turning the flashlight on and off

Pressing the LIGHT button twice will turn on the flashlight with a delay

The ice strength indicator flashes chaotically

Another double press will turn off the flashlight after 3 to 5 seconds

This problem does not exist with preinstalled watch faces and everything works fine

Additionally, the gesture turns on the display with a delay

The problem was on both 6.28 and 6.29

Even factory reset didn't help.

Please, does anyone have a similar problem? Or is it only on my I3 50mm amoled?

Yes, same problem on my AMOLED I3 50mm. Does it every time with a CIQ watch face. Not a problem on the MIP/Solar versions.

My Instinct 3 45mm AMOLED (version 7.08) is also afflicted by this issue. It appears every system update arrives without resolving this persistent problem.

Same exact issue as OP on 50mm Amoled. Needs fixing asap. If however you set the torch as a Hot Key (i.e. Start+Up etc) the torch comes on immediately after you choose the light strength etc. Then when you double tap 'off' it goes off immediately if you still have the light strength options on the screen. If you go back to your watch screen/face it delays the turn off again.

I have the same issue with the torch indicator in the screen after I installed watch face from connect IQ,the indicator is flickering but with the stock watch faces everything works fine,I hope on the next firmware update they will fix this issue.

Fixed in the beta

The beta fixed the blinking indicator, but the delay between turning the light on and off remained the same. The more complex the dial, the longer the delay

That's a watch face issue, not a system issue.
