Hi there, my Garmin Connect is on 5.9.1 version code 9447 and my Garmin Edge Soilar is on 25.25, but it shows no update available and my connect app for Garmin Edge 1040 Solar is still displaying in Chinese. When I connect the Edge on my PC with Garmin Express it also shows no update available. How did you manage to update to 26.12? Thanks in advance. Best regards

Unbelievable that Garmin is not fixing this.

Finally 26.16 stable fixed the issue. Note: needed to do clear data on the app to work correctly.

Mine says no updates availabale on 26.12.

Moments after it said No Sotware Updates Availabale, it offered me the update. A bit strange.

I can confirm the 26.16 and data wipe on the Connect app fixed the Chinese characters as well. Hopefully this update fixes a numerous number of bugs!

26.16 released last week. It resolve the issue edge 1040 crash riding outdoor when safe ride. If the unit don’t detect update on Garmin express try update on the device, make sure WiFi is enable and connected for the update on the Edge 1040 device. Make sure you are still subscribe to beta tester.
