New Edge 1030 Public Beta 7.85 Now Available

Garmin-Matthew
over 6 years ago

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.

  • For any issues that you encounter please fill out the form included in the download and attach it to an email to [email protected]. 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 7.50 to 7.85:

  • Training Load Focus. Low Aerobic, High Aerobic, and Anaerobic stats are tracked over a 4 week window and the user should be able to track what needs to be focused on.
  • Two-way setting sync. Changes to some settings made on the Edge (zones, user profile, etc) will now be uploaded to Garmin Connect.
  • Heat/Altitude Acclimation. Shows user's acclimation to different altitudes and hot/humid environments.
  • ClimbPro. See upcoming climbs while riding a course so you can prepare for needed effort
  • Power Curve tracking has been added to the My Stats menu.
  • Nutrition/Hydration tracking alerts
  • Training Plan Review Page Improvements
  • Workout Comparison Graph. Provides live feedback while executing a workout.
  • Widget Management. Disable and re-order items in the widget loop
  • Bike Theft Alarm*. While armed, get alerted when your Edge device moves.
  • Find My Edge*. Help find a misplaced Edge by making it beep or showing its last known location on your phone.
  • Grit/Flow**
  • Jump Metrics**
  • Added a new Popular data field category and generally improved the data field category order
  • Updated screen creation and editing flow (applies to eBike/STEPS, Lap Summary, Segment, and Data Screen)
  • Ability to swap data fields while in the timer loop on long press instead of edit only (additional tap required)
  • Updated battery icon to be more visible in some places
  • Incident detection setting is now active per profile instead of globally
  • Added ability to hide data screens without deleting them
  • Reordered settings to match the Edge 830, mainly splitting the growing number of settings into Safety & Tracking (Incident Detection, Get Assistance, Contacts, GroupTrack, Bike Alarm) and Connected Features (Phone, WiFi, Device Transfers)
  • Additional small changes and improvements

* Complete functionality requires an upcoming Garmin Connect Mobile release

** Mountain Bike Profile Only

    I'm tempted to try a full reset. I just really want to get this ride off the unit. It's showing in history but not syncing and I don't want to lose it. I'm fairly sure it's not this ride that's the problem as the performance issue has been there since the upgrade. It's a good thought though. Thanks

    Did a first ride yesterday with 7.85. No problems at all. I like the smart alerts option. However, I don't like the suggested amounts. Each time it beeps, I need to drink 100ml according to the 1030. Although the time intervals are acceptable, the amount to drink or eat is not. I would like to see a feature where we can adjust the amount of suggested calories.

    I think I see the problem. Most of the .FIT files on my device at 300kb-500kb. Yesterday's ride is 33.7mb!

    Hi, 

    Does anyone know if 7.85 can be used on a Bontrager 1030? I've added the .gcd file but the unit isn't prompting to update.

    Thanks

    Glad you found the cause of the problem. I have seen other posts of this issue occuring. It might be worth sending a bug report to Garmin

    Where?

    Did you copy in /garmin folder?

    Yep, can't see anything I'm missing.

    Installed the update couple of days ago, did 2 rides - so far absolutely NO issues! Moreover for the first time since a very long time, I don't even have to take out my phone and start the GCM in order to establish the connection between 1030 and Galaxy Note9 (knocking on wood of course, hope it stays like this). And also, perhaps connected to the phone connectivity, my LiveTrack started working without lighting a candle, saying a prayer and doing the tribal dance around the unit Slight smile

    Since I live in a very flat area, I can't really enjoy all the new features, but to me the old issues have been addressed and (for the time being) appear to be solved!

    Overall - GOOD JOB, GARMIN! First for listening to the feedback and taking action and then for implementing completely new set of features in an existing device vs just releasing them in a newer version of the unit! 

    Absolutely pleased!

    My setup, in case people are wondering: Samsung Galaxy Note9, Garmin Speed Sensor (the version with ANT+ only), Wahoo Tickr (connected via ANT+), Favero Assioma Duo (connected via ANT+ and also with enabled Cycling Dynamics)

    1. My 1030, 7.85 now offers a choice of Power Zones - 7 or 9 Coggan iLevels (whatever they are?)
    However, Connect (Android and Windows) device user settings only offers 6.
    2 The Power Curve on my 1030 says No Data, however, Connect (Android and Windows) shows my power curve OK suggesting the data does exist. I am using Garmin Vector 3 pedals
    3 The Best Power (20 Mins) on my Edge shows " -- "although this data can be accessed via Windows Connect reports, suggesting the data does exist.
    Anyone else experiencing any of the above or is it just me?
    Have reported to beta team

    about #2: I have the same issue and contacted Garmin support. They suggested re-pairing and re-syncing. I tried, but this did not help. Power curvel is still missing.
