New Alert Screen displayed since 14.12, still showing up in 14.13

Can anyone tell me where I can find the screen below? It started showing up for my walking activities after I installed 14.12. It pops up somewhere close to every mile I walk. Not sure if it will be displayed during any other GPS based activities (running etc.) as I am recovering from a knee strain and am not running at this time.... Only about a week more!!!

I have a strong suspicion that it had something to do with me debugging why we couldn't get to the 955's settings (on the GC app) after the 14.12 beta install. The only screen I could get too was the system screen, however when selecting it it wanted me to select something about Goal distance and then goal time... So I selected yards over meters and went with the default time.

Any help in identifying where I can get to this and turn it off and understand what it is telling me would be greatly appreciated!

I've got the same problem since 14.12. I also get "2:00.9" during bike rides. I figured it happens about two minutes after 10 minutes. During a ride It would pop up at 12 min, 24 min, 36 etc. No alarms…

Same here- I get "2:00.9" displayed every 12 minutes during run activity since SW 14.12. No Auto-Lap or whatever set.

I've added and configured new activity and it helped, alarm dissapear. Probably old settings were not compatible to new firmware version...

Auto lap (every mile) and that's your speed 3mph? Auto-lap is set per activity. Take a look in the lap setting and Lap Alert, where you define the fields you want to display

Update: no alerts set apart from (max) heart rate; alert also occurs while standing during an activity

Hi Kevin James, Yea I'm not so sure about that? I do have auto-lap set for every mile. But this Alert displays about 0.5 to 1 minute before I hit the mile marker... Sometimes if I'm walking faster, I get the lap alert before this.... And this display is always the same, "3:08.6". Not to mention, completing a 5K walk in 42 minutes, should put me in the 4+mph range?

Have you got anything in Alerts? That 'speedo' is usually used in running as a pace alert (although it also has the text Too Fast or Too Slow). More confusingly though, Walk does not have the option for Pace alerts. Unless you're not using the native Walk activity?

Went for first run activity since 14.13 and I didn't get this . I have 955 non solar , paired with iOS device. I do have auto lap switched on. It worked as per normal.

So the good news is that this went away! The bad news, it was only because I performed a factory reset.

No, not just because of this issue. But I was seeing several other annoying issues.... Like battery drain at 1% every 2 hours in smartwatch mode.

With that factory reset, All issues have disappeared! Even battery life went back to 1% drain every 4.5-5 hours, Again in smartwatch mode Awesome! For a day, Battery drain back to 1% every 2 hours again. Confirming, in my mind anyway, this is a FW/SW issue. Getting the same performance from my VA3
