    Does this version fix the regular crashes while connected to an Android phone during a swim activity? I'm using software 2.50, a Samsung Galaxy 9, have both turned off and left Bluetooth on at various times (to no avail), and manually re-saved custom swim workouts since the 2.50 update - all in the hopes of stopping these random resets during a pool swim workout.  Nothing seems to work and they keep happening, with a seemingly increasing regularity.  Is there more information users can provide to get to the bottom of this? It seems to be happening to a number of people here who have been reporting it for some time.
