Statistic of the week: 3 runs - 2 ToD (triangle of death)

Every run over 40 min. long ends with a system crash on my fr255m FW b.14.08. Every time it happens i lose my HR data, my Spoty music and i get only 30% (bad) for my exercise.

Dear Garmin people do you understand there is not a really working product?

What's going on, have you absolutely no quality check before deploying FW?

So bugs have to be expected. Obviously you wanted to join the beta program…

So bugs have to be expected. Obviously you wanted to join the beta program, so please file an urgent bug report to the official beta channel.

If you are not willing to do that, please leave the beta program and stop complaining about software that is not even released. Thanks.

Or do you need to explain how the beta (and here even the release candidate) differs from "hello world" - 5 errors / 10 warnings?

You could have written that, at least one sentence about it, in your opening post.

So it just read like a rant.

Sorry then, and yes, this should not happen in a RC. I fully agree with you in that point.

Question is, if you should rather write in the beta subforum, when you complain about a beta
