New Public Beta 7.07 Now Available

A new Beta software for the Edge 1030 has been released. Full change log, instructions, and software for installing the beta can be found here --> (http://www8.garmin.com/support/download_details.jsp?id=12819).
  • For any issues that you encounter please fill out the form included in the download and attach it to an email to [EMAIL="[email protected]"][email protected]
  • [/EMAIL]. Please note that you may not get a response to the email unless we need more information on the issue you report.

  • Although this software is believed to be reliable, it has not yet been released for production and should be used at your own risk.
Changes made from version 7.00 to 7.07:
  • Improved connection to the Edge Remote.
  • Fixed issue causing Connect IQ MapView to not handle inputs.
  • Fixed incorrect navigation audio tones from the 7.00 update.
  • Fixed a crash when sending GroupTrack messages.
  • Added support for 12-speed shifting systems.
  • Fixed data field issues when using a shifting system with no front derailleur.
  • Fixed crash when doing the FTP test.
  • Updated RTL510 and RTL500 light modes for Auto and Trail modes.
  • Fixed Varia lights not activating when starting an activity.
  • Fixed issue where radar would not automatically reconnect after being disconnected for more than 2 minutes.
  • Fixed issue where the Edge would not automatically pair with a radar that is paired to a watch that the Edge is connected to via Extended Display Mode.
  • Made several improvements to the Sensor Details UI for Vector 3 power meters.
  • Added support for displaying eBike data fields on a Varia Vision.
  • Fixed bug in Extended Display mode where Di2 battery would report as 255%.
Installation Instructions
  • Connect your Edge 1030 device to your computer using the micro-USB cable.
  • Download and unzip Edge1030_707Beta.zip and place the GUPDATE.gcd file in the \Garmin folder of your device's internal storage drive.
  • Disconnect your device from the computer, approve the update on the Edge, and wait for the update to finish.
  • If you would like to revert to the last public release software, follow the above steps but place the GUPDATE-700.GCD file in the \Garmin folder. Rename the file to GUPDATE.GCD before disconnecting your device.
NOTE: If you revert to an older version of software, all of your settings will be reset to defaults.
  • Downgraded myself after seeing the problems with Strava Segments and Connect IQ internet enabled apps like Accuweather.
  • Any fix for the battery level issue in this beta? The bug where after sleep/resume it it either stays at, or climbs to 100%? Nothing mentioned in the release notes but you never know.

    Like others reported, 7.07 has killed off internet for data fields.
    XERT - Those fields appear to be updating by mobile internet. This field uses username / password, set within garmin connect for each field.
    Wind Direction - This states 'no internet' - this does not user username / password, but rather gives a key to register online.
    *I'm unsure if I should log a ticket with beta support on this, or if they may already be aware (I'd think they would list a known issue on the beta if so).
    I was going to assume it's on the connectIQ developer to fix, but it sounds like more of a widespread issue after reading some comments here.
    For now I'm continuing to run the beta, as I need remote control function.

    With 7.07, customising settings for IQ data fields no longer works. I use an IQ data field called hGradeMax from the connect IQ store. It has settings for the distance over which the gradient is calculated (default value is 100 metres) and whether the percent character should be hidden to improve the font sizing (default is off). With previous 1030 FW I could set the distance value to 50m and the percent char hiding to on, sync the 1030, and those values would be applied. With the 7.07 FW I set the values and sync, but the next time I connect the 1030 to Garmin Express on the PC or GCM on the phone, the default settings are still in place. I've tried changing the settings both through GCM on the phone and Garmin Express on the PC, and with neither can I change the values from the defaults. The app itself was last updated in December, and I could change the values ok after that, so the problem must be due to the change in FW.

    I am running 7.00 and actually have the same issue with the "My EDGE 2" data field. Whatever I do to change the settings, either with Connect Express or Gamin Connect Mobile, the changes are not saved on the Edge 1030.

    Thanks for your post. This puzzled me so I looked at it again. I went to delete EDGE2 and reinstall. Bizzarly I were able to delete it in Connect Express and it was gone from that interface, but remained on the Edge nevertheless (despite multiple syncs and reboots) and EDGE2 was still visible through Connect Mobile. On Connect Mobile the Uninstall was grey and would not worked. I managed to flush EDGE2 completely from the Edge by locating the binary in Finder (navigating on the Computer drive). It was then gone for good on the Edge itself (detafield was no more usable). I reinstalled with Connect Express. Now it works, I can change the settings with Connect Express as expected. However still cannot change them using Connect Mobile - when I do Save blue botton on that app I get a message to Open from the website and nothing works. Definitely something broken with the install process and the settings process on the iPhone. I will see how that goes when things get updated.

    I run latest iOS 12.14, latest Edge FW 7.00, latest EDGE2 app 0.9.2, latest Connect Mobile 4.15.1.2, latest Connect Express 6.12
  • Still the same annoying Varia sound.
    My hate grows by the day
  • Anyone else having dropouts on power and cadence? I have it on every ride and have had the issue for quite a while.

    It doesn't matter which powermeter I'm using.

    Zwift doesn't have the dropouts using the same ANT+ connection.

    I have the issue also while riding outside...
