  • no probs with this Beta, all ANT+ devices working as they have to work (Vector 3, Cadence/Speed Sensor 2, RTL511, HRM Dual) and of course, yesterday i received a LT HR change the first time i used Edge 1030 in the past and since arround one year of using Edge 830 without a change on my FTP 

  • I'd like to have Livetrack 2.0 on my Edge 830 as well.

  • Got massive elevation inaccuracy

    Got the same issue. My ride is 44km and 900 vertical meters. But for the last mont my edge 830 gives me no more than 600m

    I do calibrate every single time. But when you climb 10% - 15% and garmin gives 0% or sometimes negative grade. That is not about calibration

  • yes work great ! no disc no freeze ! all ant+

  • Please, anyone, can explain me how working the new option in the training page to go forward, back and go? Thanks.

  • Edge 830, v5.68, constant re-boot when connected via USB to PC.

    When connecting to PC via USB, the 830 constantly reboots after 5.68 installed. While rebooting, PC can't see device to install other version. Have to do factory reset and loose all my get to get it back, not happy !!!!!!

    When disconnected from USB, works fine. Also works fine when charging on regular charger, just doesn't like the PC!!!

  • Unit froze twice in single 3 hour activity, Ridiculous.

  • I just ran into this with mine after upload via wifi wouldn't work for my first ride on 5.68. Device kept restarting and wasn't able to communicate with Garmin Express. The solution is force the device into mass storage mode by starting with the device off, hold down the lap button and plug in the USB.

  • There's an issue with the 1030 beta where if you have both BT & WiFi enabled it causes device crashes, freezes & computer connection issues.

    If you have them both enabled try disabling one of them it doesn't matter which one & see if that helps as a workaround for your 830 issues until it gets fixed. 

  • i never mix ANT+ and BLT on Edge, think it never worked with Vector 3 since Garmin start to sell 1030, i replaced 1030 with 830 but use ANT+ only and never had a problem with crashes, freezes or similar

    The one and only BLT connection is the pairing of Edge to my Android mobile phone!
