Motorola Motoactv :: ANT+ HR Sensor Stopped Transmitting Data
Apr 7, 2012
I have been using my MA with ANT+ HR Monitor sensor nearly every day since I got this as a Christmas present for a several hours.I noticed at the end of about 3 months that the HR Sensor was flacky, so I replaced the 2032 3 volt battery in the sensor.This seemed to fix the problem.The device worked well for a few more weeks and than I was having similar problems, so I replaced the battery a 2nd time.Yesterday, I was able to use the HR Sensor for my morning workout, but the sensor was no longer transmitting when I went for a 5 mile walk.i replaced the battery again and repaired the sensor with the device.It seemed to connect fine, but there is not any live data being displayed from the HR sensor.I have tried repairing the sensor and it will pair, but their is no data being recieved by the MA device.Has anyone else had problems like this with their ANT+ HR Sensor?

I want to buy an ant+ Cadence sensor which is really inexpensive and I'd like to know if I could pair it and use it as a SPEED sensor for my bike. Since a cadence sensor just counts how often the magnet passes by it then I guess they are the same as speed sensor.What would be the steps to complete this? or are the profiles baked in the firmware of the sensors and there's no way for the Motoactv to profile it as a different type of sensor?

Typical cycling computers use the sensors to measure both distance and speed. When an ANT+ speed sensor is used with the MotoACTV, does it get used for distance as well, or just speed? I commute in downtown Chicago and would welcome the more accurate distance measurement in addition to the GPS route tracking.

I've just tried to do a cycling fitness test in a gym on a standard gym bike bike (lifecycle fitness) but it wouldn't let me start with just a HRM , it gave me a message saying I had to have a Bike Sensor. So is there no way to do a fitness test on a bike without having to spend more money? I do have a road bike, but I'd like the option to do this in a gym without shelling out more.i can see theres "stationary bike" profile, but this doesn't have the option for a fitness test.(BTW - I also tried a quick start indoors cycling workout and got the same message (connect a bike sensor to start an indoor ride)

However, after the latest update, the battery life, even when doing nothing, is terrible. I had it charged to 100% before I went to sleep last night and when I woke up the battery was dead and the watch was off. Before it would last a couple of days even if I went on a short ride.
I did recently pair it to a Garmin speed/cadence sensor. But the battery was dying, like I said, when I wasn't even biking.
Which brings me to my second question. I got the speed sensor because I hoped that instead of waiting for the GPS to catch up to when I am stopped, that the speed sensor (like the wired one I have on my actual bike computer) would know immeditely when I've stopped and not mess up my average speed by having the time keep tracking when I was standing still. My wired computer has pause and start down to a science. Why can't this? Why is it still using GPS for speed instead of the sensor? Cadence works fine, so I know it isn't a communication problem, I don't think, anyway.

I upgraded to the Lumia 950 at the AT&T store near me. Don't know if it's a Lumia thing or a Windows 10 thing, but I noticed that the signal bars at the top now have little arrows coming out of them that light up when the phone is transmitting.
Sunday night I figured it was just restoring all my stuff, no big deal. But it did this all day yesterday as well. I have pretty fast Wi-Fi, so it really shouldn't be taking this long. When I woke up this morning and looked at the phone, still transmitting.
I looked at the data usage page before I went to bed, and compared it to what I saw first thing this morning, and from what I can tell it appears to be OneDrive. It used 200MB of Wi-Fi while I was sleeping. Not sure if it's downloading ALL my files to my device, or what. I went to the OneDrive app to see what they sync settings are--I couldn't find any. :-( I'd be happy if it didn't sync anything to my phone unless I specifically requested it.

Am I missing something here? Should the MotoACTV bike speed/cadence sensor be tracking power/watts itself of is there another accessory that I need to get? It's recording all other info without difficulty. I've only used it about 3 times but always get a 0/0 when it comes to the power/watts reading.

Originally I thought that it was doing an update of some sort, but it hasn't stopped for a couple days now. It drastically reduces the battery life and sometimes for a couple hours the transmitting just stops. Even when its just connected to wifi it is still transmitting data. No other programs are open besides the messages app, BBM, the home screen, phone, and the browser.

Is it just me or is anyone having problems with data syncing to the Motoactv.com portal today?

I'm hoping someone can help me with something. I'm having an issue with constant data transfer and I wanna know what it is. I know the upload and download arrows flash every once in a while when changing areas around town but I have a lot of up and down data transfer and its draining my battery. I deleted all my apps and I am using just a plain precision zen theme and wiped my phone and started fresh but its still happening. It seems to stop a little when I turn of WiFi and GPS and it completely stops when I turn off all radio services. If I do this my battery will last all day but if I turn everything back on my battery will be dead in about 3 hours.
I'm running 5.0.0.592 on my T-MO 8900 .Is there a way to tell what's sending info so much? Is there an app out there that can tell me what's sending?

I finished my first indoor run today and the run data on the motoactv device and treadmill don't match. I completed my workout and came home and synced my data. Is there a way to update the run data on the website to match the treadmill data or does the update have to happen on the device prior to syncing?

I just tried to sync with my computer (Windows 7 with full admin rights) and after installing and attempting to sync for to iTunes the first time I recieved aMML has stopped working error that forced the shut down of the application and would not let me open it back up again.To troubleshoot I've tried:1) reseting MotoActv to factory settings4) rebooting again5) reconnecting/reinstalling MotoCastUnfortunatly after all of the above the application continues not to work / fails with the same error every time I try to open it (not even making it to the sync page anymore) making the MotoActv essentially unusable since it won't sync workouts or download music.

I've had my Actv for a while now and haven't had a problem till recently. I'm not getting notifications on it anymore regarding phone calls, text messages, or reminders. I still get weather and facebook though. I did check my motoactv app to make sure the boxes were still checked to receive the notifications.

So i went for my run yesterday and about 3/4 miles away from finishing the MA start acting up. It was saying i was running at a ~6mpm pace. i know for a fact that i wasn't! Then suddenly i was done, I would say less than 1/2 mile away from target. at that point I was so tired that i didn't care that much. but i do care now. On the route map i can see where it all went down and the MA stop tracking my distance. not sure why it happened, but its the first time.

Most of the time when using my phone and iether making or receiving a call, I can hear the person on the other end of the line, but they can not hear me. Re-calling usually will not fix this issue.

just finished my run on the .73 version for the first time. The device battery definitely lasts a little bit longer -- still dies close to 3 hours. Won't last all the way through my marathon training.That said, a couple of other things also happened. I added the Garmin foot pod to the devices linked to the MOTOACTV. I also have the Jaybird Freedom 3 as a bluetooth headset connected. Two things happened:
1. Approx 1.25mi into the run, i went to look down at the watch and it stopped tracking. I didn't hear anything in my ear -- no "workout stopped/paused" nothing. I heard it "workout started" when I began.
2. With the Garmin foot pod my avg. pace was higher -- than using the MOTOACTV without a pod (just the gps) -- is that normal?
3. About mid-way through the run, my music stopped -- i looked down at the MOTOACTV and noticed the bluetooth icon was gone (i.e., disconnected). I'm not sure why, i checked my headset and it was still on.

I have bought my MOTOACTV 8GB about two months ago. I have had no problems with all the device functionalities (music playing, bluetooth pairing with earphones and phone notifications with a non-motorola phone, phone calls through the MOTOACTV, GPS, pairing with a BLE Polar H7 heart rate sensor,...) until the latest update (MA 1.7.3 N8).I updated to MA 1.7.3 N8 (from MA 1.6.13 N8) two weeks ago, and the weather notifications with the updated MOTOACTV app worked also fine. But when I went running, after hitting the "Quick start" for the workout (the same happened after setting a target or hitting the "Fit test"), I got the following error:"Sorry. The application Workout (com.motorola.gault.activity) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."After a few trials, I noticed it happened only when the MOTOACTV was trying to pair with the BLE sensor. If I empty the sensor list on the MOTOACTV configuration, the workout can be started, but without the heart rate functionality.
Another symptom I get is that I cannot pair my MOTOACTV with my phone anymore. The MOTOACTV forgets the pairing: everytime I go to "Configuration->General->Smartphone Setup", I get the question about the phone having Android 2.1 for discovering a new phone. On the other hand, I can perfectly pair my bluetooth earphones and listen to music through them, so it is not a HW bluetooth related issue.I have tried restoring factory defaults several times, erasing all the music and podcasts on the device, and configuring the BLE HR sensor, the MOTOCAST account, and the phone pairing in different order, all without success, getting exactly these two problems; I am starting to think that the software on the device has become corrupted since I updated to the latest version.

I have a pair of headphones that has an in-line button. The headphones were working for about 3 weeks with the motoactv, then one day the button stopped pausing and starting the audio for some reason. I tested the same headphones in my iphone, which worked as expected with no problems. I tested 2 other sets of headphones with the motoactv that have in-line buttons and they both work, but this paticular pair will not work with the in-line button. I have done a factory reset, but the results are the same. I have no idea what would cause this behavior.

I just did a 15km outdoor run, and used the race yourself feature. Everything worked fine, the gps was detected at the start, and I got my pace and distance information throughout the run. However when I uploaded the run there is no map or elevation information and it says "No GPS data was detected".

I did two activities in my last run, and when I check in MOTOACTV website, it shows "Workout does not contain any raw data".
Did I set it wrong by combining 2 activities in 1 run?

No GPS data was detected. That's the message I see after synching my latest run from this morning to the web portal. I had the run scheduled on the portal calendar, and it appeared in my device as a planned run. When I selected that run on my device it gave me Outdoor or Indoor options. I chose Outdoor and it began searching for my heart rate monitor and GPS signal. Locked on heart rate monitor immediately and gave me the "GPS Locked" ,essage after about 2 minutes. I pressed Start and ran for 20 minutes. Returned home and synched the device. No GPS data was detected.

All of my runs start and end in the same place (in reality). However, the last n minutes (or miles?) of every run seem to be getting lost somewhere. The problem exists in both the device and on the site, so I'd assume it's getting lost in the device.

I am a new user and it seems that motoactv is using something like cloud station to let us uploading our workouts data there. The layout of the motoactv.com is nice. Well, if just in case, the motoactv.com platform stops operating, how can we backup our training workouts data?
I know other company has software for users to install in the PCs so that they can transfer their workouts data from their devices to their PCs. However, motoactv does not offer this kind of software.
I find there is "export" button in motoactv.com. However, for the four kinds of format we can choose, "KML, TCX, GPX (route data), CSV", I really don't know how to use and view them. May I ask anybody who can teach me here?
Well, the only thing I can think of is there is a workout summary in the motoactv. It already give us much information of our workouts except the Zone data. Perhaps we can transfer those data to our record manually. However, I really hope that there should be a much better solution.

I've been using my MotoACTV for just over a month and I've been running a sync over wifi after each workout. I took the device on holiday with me for 2 weeks and tracked ~5/6 runs on the device while I was away. I just ran a sync via the USB when I got back and it looks like it's lost the data for the 5/6 runs. The data isn't online and they are no longer appear to be on the device

just choose download from under workout stats, go to the link below, choose the file you just downloaded (rawDataCvs.cvs) hit convert and it will auto download a file (Motoactv.tcx) that can be uploaded into RunKeeper and other Garmin sites.I don't even know who created this, but I would love to shake their hand. url..

I would like to go to one location to view and/or manipulate my data (over a long period). Currently, I don't see how or if it is even possible. Another issue is that when I view the workout data and look at the speed data, it does not reflect actual speed. The data is not representative of the ride. For example, I know I hit a top speed of 32 mph, but nowhere in the downloaded data is a number anywhere near 32.
