    After the update, the backlight does not turn on when the alarm is set. My settings are on.
    The backlight does not light when the alarm beeps.
    • After the update my scheduled runs and running pace have changed to miles but my runs and laps are still recorded in km

    yes, me too. I restarted my watch, but unchanged. The alarm backlight still does not work.
  • Solution to the miles showing instead of km was to select miles in the app, sync, then wait a few minutes before changing back to km and syncing again

    This is the only way to change miles / km. But how to fix the backlight of the alarm clock?
    Set your alarm. Turn on the backlight. Try. Do you have it working?

    Great, the Americans still hate the metric system users. .Total distance on watchface is in miles again, time was also in 12-hour dispay but after some fiddling it changed to 24h again. Restarted the watch also

    Shifting the metric to "statuut"? and back and also in de app I changed km's to miles and back to km's, still my (poor) week-total displays as 2.4 in stead of 3.9

    Upd: second reboot fixed it. Now hopefully my next run wil also be metric again. Could make sense of coach Jeff's workouts and what my display read when it was in Miles per minute.

    After the update time stuck in 12 hour display even after logging on and changing back to 24 hour display. Watch synced and switched on and off multiple times, still not on 24 hour display.

    After the update the battery is running low real fast. I have to regarge within half a day.

    Is there a way to revert to the previous firmware? This upgrade creates nothing but problems.

    I devoted a lot of time to it. I didn't find out how to return the software version back.
