One suggestion and two bugs [MF 59] [Bug 63]

Post by BusterKeaton39 »

A suggestion: When saving an activity it would be nice to have the choice of both automatic or prompted activity/trip data reset as you do on previous devices. [Missing Feature 59]

Bugs: The save portion option for an activity does not appear to work. You get the screen to select the start and end parts of the portion and then nothing happens! [Bug 63]

If you turn off the gps device whilst an activity is active and then turn it back on, the activity/trip data recording seems to automatically restart. The same thing happens even if you stop/pause the activty before turning off the gps device - it still restarts when you turn it back on. With previous devices this was not the case and you had to restart the activity/trip recording manually.

Edit to add: Firmware Version is 8.08
