v3.15 beta breaks Stryd calibration [resolved]

I installed v3.15 beta this morning and went out for a run. I had hoped that maybe there would be fixes regarding the HR sensor - but just wishful thinking. If anything, it seems it's even more erratic and random than before.

During my run I noticed pace didn't seem plausible. Later at my 1km marker for this route, the watch didn't buzz, it only did so after about 50m. This shortage continued for the remainder of my run, getting to only 5.68km when I reached my usual 6km turn-around point. Calibration did not change - it was still set to 100.00, and auto-calibrate is off. I tried to change the factor to something else and back to 100.00 mid-run but nothing changed. So it seems in order to get the same distance and pace I would need to change it from 100.00 to 105.65...

Does anyone know if it's safe to downgrade to v3.08 beta while having a newer one, using the regular install instructions?

Edit Nov. 2nd 2019: After having removed the foodpod sensor on the watch, and re-adding it - I went for a run which produced the usual pace/distance.

Great, and downgrading from v3.15 beta to v3.08 beta doesn't work.

Two runs made with Stryd and the 3.15 beta. No problems so far. Perhaps try to reset the Stryd or check so the hole does not ccontain any dirt.

Thanks KGB_NIST. I'll try again today. Perhaps I'll remove the sensor and re-add it.

no probs with Stryd using Drews Interval App for running 2 times

0 Heidstocker over 5 years ago in reply to talsela

You should also try to reset Stryd itself (like KGB_NIST mentioned). I once had mis-readings on inclines and the reset helped.

- Go to the Stryd-app -> Settings -> Reset Stryd

- Now, the Stryd-pod is powered down

- In order to get in running again, you need to put it on the charger

Can't promise anything, but worth a try.

A more appropriate title might be "today my first km was 50m long". There is nothing to point at v3.15 or stryd calibration. If you want to make these bold statements you need to test it better, not just do one run and throw claims.

No reset to Stryd was necessary - after having removed the foodpod sensor on the watch, and re-adding it - I went for a run which produced the usual pace/distance. Thanks for the suggestion!

Have you read through? It's not just my 1st km that was long, it was *all* kilometers, and the entire run was reported as about 5.5% shorter than it actually is or normally is.
