Hi all.
Bought a second hand garmin 1030, and unfortunately i encountered the same battery drain issue as many have had.
i read through all the fora, installed a beta software version. Left it in standby, turned it off, nothing helped. Battery drained overnight randomly.
Now why I am posting is because it seems I have found a workaround.
When left in standby, with an ongoing ‘paused’ activity, with my phone UNconnected, the problem did not occur anymore the last two weeks after daily usage. It is especially important the phone is disconnected, every time I forget to do this the chances are great the drain occurs.
A pitty Garmin doesn’t solve this structurally.
Two annoying things still occurring:
1) sometimes wifi has switch on by itself
2) cadans/speed/smart trainer keeps on getting searched, even if the sensor is turned off.
but both problems doesn’t seem to invoke the drain
