No more LTH (Auto Detect)?!

Miky over 1 year ago

So, Garmin solved the problem with LTH simply by not recording anymore LTH?!

I had no more LTH since 10 days....

All,

As I'm sure you've seen, we have a fix for this in Beta 15.09. Please see Enrolling in and Learning About Garmin Beta Software Program for instructions to enroll.

I am going to go ahead and…

This is a basic functionality problem in a premium watch that has existed since the release in one form or another. Shame on you Garmin! This should have been taken care of a long time ago by a dedicated…

I have been missing LTH updates since the 23rd of December (back then on 13.22 firmware, currently on 14.15). I am running with my 955 7days per week, 2 of them being higher HR workouts (tempo, threshold…

Garmin-Kevin is Garmin dealing with this HUGE problem?

Did an interval session today...

5x3'@10k pace with 1.5' rest... I'd expect a LTHR update but nothing on the watch and nothing in connect. Synced over cable btw.

Great all these features and stats on a watch, if only they'd actually work... crap

Same here.

No LTH update since December.

Maybe they are changing something because of FR965? Same BUG on F7.

0 FlipStone over 1 year ago in reply to honza_81

Think they are more focussed on their "Let's release one model a week"-schedule then actually fixing their software...

By now they have so many models and lines of software that most likely fixing it in one breaks it in another. But hey, if it's broken in all of them at least the experience is consistent right?

(Yeah, sorry... getting a bit, or a lot, frustrated with this whole FR955 experience)

So, did DC Rainmaker actually weigh in on the Forerunner firmware debacle? I got a lot downvotes when I called him a Garmin shill in another thread here. So, did anything result from his "call" with Garmin? Did he address the situation on his website? Let me take a bold guess…

It makes me angry too. Because the forerunner should be ideally suited for runners, but the basic metrics don't work.

He (DCR) did mention on the 955 thread having a call with them (Feb 6 and 7 2023) and that there would be followup with Garmin after they investigated further . Nothing after that.

0 FlipStone over 1 year ago in reply to S.M.R.

Meh, he once did post an article about the crappy firmware/software in general...

But overall, extensive as his reviews may be, they are also all more of the same and mainly focused on 'direct' stats (GPS accuracy, heartrate accuracy, power, etc).

Then again, hard to thoroughly go through ALL the options as well as review things that take weeks to balance out. Let alone things might work, or be broken, and one week later the other way around...

A someone suggested earlier, I've connected my watch to computer (Garmin Express) in hope it will somehow resync. But no luck.
