Updated yesterday via USB and garmin express and since then, it is randomly restarting after some notifications, already happened 4 times since last night. Anyone else?

There is an open ticket with our engineering team that is being investigated. We have gathered error logs from users that are affected and hope to have a resolution soon. This continues to be an issue…
We wanted to touch base with everyone as we are still looking into this issue. I know there have been questions as to why we are not able to reproduce this internally. This is a thread dedicated to this…
We have released a beta to address this issue which can be found here. We will be closing this thread and monitoring feedback in the sticky post linked.
The changes in the above linked beta will be rolled…
This was my data yesterday. The first gap is overnight and I wasn't wearing the watch. The second gap from 8:30am to 3:50pm I was wearing the watch the entire time and after receiving a notification at…
I disabled most notifications (left calendar reminders on), and have still had 2 reboots this morning. I also have the missing sections in my 'graphs' as others have described. This OS update is…
Strange you have another update overnight
Did you turned off the auto update on the Watch AND in the App ?
Normally they should be in sync, but just to be sure that one does not overwrite the other...
Moreover, as I said earlier in this post, do no connect your Watch to your PC (or MAC) if garmin express is installed....if so, whatever is your choice, it will update automatically the Watch
Hope this could help
Mine is working fine in 2.60 with no more stupid automatic updates....
We wanted to touch base with everyone as we are still looking into this issue. I know there have been questions as to why we are not able to reproduce this internally. This is a thread dedicated to this issue so everyone here is experiencing it obviously. There are reports from iOS and Android users, as well as some users with third party apps/watch faces installed while others are not using Connect IQ. Some users are seeing this after email notifications, while others get it on phone calls and texts.
In short, there's little pattern so far.
To help us out further, we would like to request users experiencing this to reply to this post in the below format.
We truly appreciate everyone's patience and cooperation while we investigate this.
1. not in a place to get that right now, plus to make the watch even useable, I had to disable all notifications to stop the dang watch from rebooting and losing data. Since disabling notifications I have not experienced a reboot.
2. Android, pixel 2 xl, latest android OS available, all security patches installed.
3. ANY notification can cause it. I've specifically noticed: calendar reminders, gmail, hangouts (chat/text) and even game notifications.
4. You may access my garmin connect data. But understand what I said above in 1. I have disabled all notifications to prevent this from happening. I will NOT re-enable them until a new software update is pushed.
2. Android, Galaxy S7
3. Seems most common with text messages received through Google Hangouts.
4. Sure
1. Can't get that right now,
2. iOS
3. Mostly random, but most recent reboot was caused by a push notification from my security camera system
4. Sure
Rolling back software and not generating error logs will not help us resolve this issue. Again, I truly understand the frustration of experiencing this, but since such a small percentage of users are seeing this symptom, we need as much information as possible to help resolve it.
Rolling back software is not recommended for users who are not participating in the beta program and does not help us find a solution.
1) Sorry i'm not bothering. I've spent SO much money on Garmin products (I'm a pilot that should tell you a little something about money spent) I want it fixed and NOW!!!!
2) iOS
3) today while running, when it really angers me, it was a calendar 'reminder' that came up. I did nothing for probably 10 seconds. As soon as I touched a button on the watch it reboot. Not until then. 245 no music. No extra faces, IQ anything, loaded on watch. Make a version 2.71 that reverts back to whenever the problem wasn't there. Figure it out, fix it, then go to 2.80 or whatever. That's what I want!!!
4) no problem
1. Can't upload .BAK files, so here's the output of ERR_LOG.BAK:

2. latest iOS release
3. Mostly text messages, coming from different applications (SMS and Signal), but also one message that contained just two emojis
4. Permission granted.
It's frustrating that I've lost step data at least one time due to the crash but if it's of any help for finding the cause of this bug I will re-enable notifications.
One question, however: Is the error log overwritten every time or does the watch generate a new file every time? I.e. do I have to hurry to copy the .BAK file after each crash?
Also, it would be great if the forum software would allow to attach .BAK files to postings.
Enabled notifications, scrolled to notifications, pressed Start - boom, the next crash. This time, however, the error log wasn't written to ERR_LOG.BAK (all uppercase) but to err_log.txt (all lowercase). Strange. Here's the output:

Edit: This time I've had three messages. Two from Garmin Connect telling me that my activities are ready to view. One from Oura with the hint "Time to stretch your legs a bit?"
I started this thread 17 days ago, a lot of people here and across other forums are still complaining about this firmware, garmin didn't bother to stop this release.
If you can't replicate the problem, maybe you don't spend enough time with a 245 connected with a smartphone at garmin headquarters.
I know this isn't a 945 or 5 value watch but is still considerably expensive to have this sort of problems.
I had a 910xt that "auto destroyed" himself in the buttons but never had a firmware problem for 6 years. Now I don't need a multisport watch but I Nedd one that is reliable.
I also had a xiaomi amazfit pace and never had a problem, i was a beta tester in firmware for them and eaven the beta didn't have a problem as serious as this.
The reboot, on the beginning, only happened after notifications, any notification, no metter the app, the content or the time of day, completely random.
Than garmin release some sort of new firmware, still named 2.70 and the reboot could happen after a notification or if I tried to open and read the notification on the watch.
I can't give you the files cause I lost patience and downgrade the firmware back to good old stable 2.60.
