Edge 1030 Plus Sensor disconnects on Software Version 6.30

Since no response from Garmin, here's  my fix that worked for me today.

1. We need to install the old 6.10 firmware, as 6.30 does not seem to work for a lot of people.

2. Go to: https://www8.garmin.com/support/download_details.jsp?id=15682#Instruct
It says 6.29 beta, but when you download the file and unzip it, you will see two files:

      GUPDATE.GCD (this is 6.29 beta, you DO NOT want this one)

      GUPDATE_610.GCD (this is the one you want, the old 6.10 version) This is probably there incase you installed the 6.29 and it didn't work, so you can revert back to 6.10.  

Follow instructions at the bottom of the page, AND DO STEP 6, which wants you to copy the GUPDATE_610.GCH to your Garmin via your USB cable.  THEN RENAME IT to GUPDATE.GCD, as apparently this  is the file name that your 1030 recognizes that you have an update.  Reboot your Garmin, select update, you will get scary message that says something about you will lose your information, but it seems like it only loses which phone you are paired with and what your wifi password is.  It does not lose your data screens or sensor pairing information (whew). I think it might lose your "personal records", like what your fastest 40k segment, what your max V02 is, but it seems to keep the rest of the info.  When it "Synchs" it probably took mine 30 minutes or so to do whatever it is doing.,  And now the Garmin works again with Power/HR/GPS/etc.  I had no dropouts today on a 4 hour ride, whereas I had 10+ dropouts on yesterday's ride.  NOTE TO GARMIN: If the above information is wrong, please delete this info.
