A new day, a new bug If you try to load a saved activity, Montana 7x0 just powers off. Firmware 8.20.

Steps to reproduce:
1) Open "Where To?"
2) Choose "Recorded Activities"
3) Choose one of the saved activities
4) Upon loading, Montana 7xx will just power off, instead of loading activity.

Great Did you also reported by yourself the bug to Garmin?

Yes, reported to Garmin software engineers.

Great, many thanks. I am curious when the new firmware update will come. Originally one was planned for April (according to some supporters, but who knows..), but nothing seems to have come of it.

Probably what they had for April was not complete, especially since we have consistently been reporting new bugs for them to address.

I know for certain there have been newer versions since 8.20 was released, but none are for public consumption.

Current release 8.40 not fixed. (Makes sense, as this was very shortly reported, so I guess, we will have to wait)

Still happens in 8.50.

This is finally fixed with firmware 9.20.
