Motorola Motoactv :: Average Pace Audio Alert Update
Jun 24, 2012
Interesting discovery during this morning's run - happened to flick the unit for a metrics update and, along with the other data, the audio coach announced an average pace that was actually the average pace for the whole run rather than for the current mile!All I need now is for the audio alert at the end of each mile to give me the average pace for the whole run and I am happy.
Oh, except that towards the end of the run the unit went weird on me (the voice announced in my ear that I had burned 4000 calories in 7 miles and then it stopped recording the distance I had run. It was raining but I think this is all connected to the sleeve of my running top swiping the screen and changing settings as I ran - hope so anyway!).

When I run, the coach tells me that I have reached a mile and that that I ran it in 12 minutes and my average pace was 12 minutes... that makes sense (and yes I know I am slow ). However, when I reach mile 2, it tells me I ran it in 11 minutes and that my average pace was 11 minutes.I expected it to say average page 11.50 miles per hour so I can try and improve my average pace over the course of my run.

Right out of the box, and the pace is not displaying on my device. I've installed the software updates.

I tried to set my pace zones and save it as a template but when i select the template it marks "10:00" in every zone (lower and upper) Is this a bug? How do I set my pace zones?

Is there a way to set my MotoACTV up to keep my pace and notify me as I drop under?

I have attempted to set up custom pace zones, as well as edit exising. However, the numbers I put in change and do not reflect anything close to what I put in.

I like the running Pace Zone Feature! It worked for me on the day I did a fit test. I ran 6 miles after the fit test and was able to take a glance at my watch and see the zone I was in. Very cool. I went to the website and tweaked my zones and saved a new template.I can't get the pace zones function to work since then. I'm sure it is operator error.

There is something wrong with pace line on the portal. Please see screenshot below - I added both speed and pace charts and these should be in sync.

I see people posting workarounds on how to create pace zones (as an example) so settings will stick....I can't figure out how to create them in the first place....where would I input the data? The drop down only has "my zone templates" - and is not selectable. Am I in the wrong place?

If no zone is selected, the name will be "Running". With zone, I see the distance.

I notice that in the portal the average heart-rate under laps is a cumulative for the total workout and not the average HR for that interval. Any way to swap that around? For training and coaching uses I think it needs to be by the lap/interval.

I've had a MOTOACTIVE for about a month now and I still haven't gotten to grips with the Pace & Power Zone settings. I could be wrong but to me it seems like they're just not working.In the Pace Zone settings the lower and upper limits are all set to meaningless values and I've tried a number of times to set them manually with no luck. Then the Power Zones Templates are completely blank and I am unable to set anything at all.

On a run today I went down a spiral ramp under a bridge and lost my gps signal several times. I was wearing a footpod. I noticed my pace measurement slowed down from a 6 min mile to about 18 min/mi.
1st question...since I had a paired footpod shouldn't it have taken over to make the pace measurement more accurate in situations exactly like this?
2nd question... assuming the footpod was taking over, how accurate is it since there seems to be no way to calibrate the actual footpod. Is the data from the footpod constantly being taken into account and then integrated back into my final workout stats?

I have 4 zones setup in my pace zones: rest, walk, run, sprint.
I am trying to setup walk / run intervals at 2 minutes at my "walk" pace zone and 2 minutes at my "run" pace zone.
In the workout planner I am able to select the appropriate pace zone when setting up my interval workout, but the pace zone that I selected is not saved. I click save and re-enter the workout plan and the zones are defaulted back to my first zone of "rest."

Using my Garmin 305 I can glance at the watch at anytime (assuming it has found satellites) and see my current pace.How do i see my pace on my MOTOACTV without having to go though the process of starting a workout session?How on earth the Motorola QA department allowed the watch and web site to be released to the public in its initial state amazes me. (I am a software developer for a large company so do have some experience) even with the software fixes there are still a number of areas where the watch and site are poor. Somebody at Motorola must be, or should be, getting into a serious amount of trouble over this.MOTOACTV 8G 4.57.78

Everything was working fine until last night when I did the recent update. I updated fine, synced a new playlist charged up and popped out for a run this morning. Very surprisingly the GPS picked up straight away but it was very quickly apparent that the audio had gone. I say gone but not completely.. there was no 'workout started' and no music playing. 1st thing was to obviously turn the volume up which when max volume was reached I did hear the beep.
Next after removing the headphones, plugging them into my phone and using the free app that plays music to the beat of my steps (brilliant) i got home and did a factory reset. No difference, can hear the max volume beep but nothing else, I've tried other headphones and the same. When I go to the music and press play nothing happens literally.. no pause button comes up... it must be registering the headphones because I can hear the max volume beep but its the only thing I can think..

Is there a way during a workout Run or Weight Training to get a notification or Alert when I hit a zone. This would be useful especially if I am doing interval training.

I know that the audio coaching automatically advises you of your stats at 50% and 85% of your set (distance) goal while running.I could have sworn that previously I had the ability to set it to give status updates at a marked distance (0.5 mile, 1 mile, etc.) regardless of my distance goal. Am I correct, and that functionality is now gone? Or was I possibility using another setting or option, like intervals (I don't think so)?Please advise. I know I can do the shake/tap check any time, but it's so much more convenient to have the preset coaching.

I used my Motoactv last sunday for a 10K run and listened to the music the whole run. But today when I switched on the music I could hear nothing. Tested the earphone(Motorola earphone that comes in the pack) with my computer and it works. Restarted the device but still no luck. Can someone tell what can I do? I live in India and bought Motoactv two months ago in US.

So the very first time I used my motoactv I was able to tap the screen and I got an audio breakdown of my current stats of my run. It worked just that 1 time and has never worked since. Tap tap tap tap tap tap nothing. What am I doing wrong? When I do tap it it just goes through each of the visual screens for calories, distance, heart rate etc. Also, I have noticed that for some runs the audio alerts for each lap worked once and I have never heard another audio alert again.

I was riding with GPS and HRM on and working fine. The music was playing nicely and the audio coach tried to come on to announce the start of new laps. However, all that happened was the music volume dropped a bit but no lap announcement.
how to get the coach back to normal. It worked fine just the day before and the device is essentially brand new.

I love being able to "slap" the device and hear my metrics read to me. The problem is the voice over is pretty quiet compared to the music player. In order to hear it I have to turn the volume up which then makes the music uncomfortably loud (cort of like those annoying commmercials that are never at the same volume as the show you are watching).*** While the music does seem to quiet down a bit while metrics are being read, I would prefer it to auto-pause the music until after the coach is done reading the metrics. ***

I'm sure plenty of runners are like me and love an audiobook while they run. Audible support would make this a lot easier!

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.

So this is a little bit of a fail, you can not use the moto actv to stream music from phone over bluetooth to it. Which means no Pandora, Slacker, Spootify.

My MOTOACTV has been acting funky lately. It's done a couple of weird things (including appearing to "brick" last night before dying), but the most frustrating is that audio files that used to be playable on it are now listed by the device as unplayable.I specifically converted protected audio files in iTunes to unprotected MPEG files (using TuneClone) and made sure to use just these files when creating the playlists for my MOTOACTV. For several weeks (I've had the product for a little over 2 months), all was well. The songs played just fine, the playlists worked as expected, etc... Lately, though, not so much.
The songs in question are still listed in my "Songs" list as well as under their respective playlists, but rather than being black text, they are a medium gray. When tapping on these songs (and it appears to be about 30% of the songs), I get the following message:Unplayable FileThis file appears to be an unsupported type and cannot be played.I was wondering whether the file(s) might have been corrupted somehow, so I completely unsynced all of my playlists, (theorhetically) deleting all music from the device. MotoCast USB reported all files being removed from the device. Then, I resynced all files, but the problem remains.Then, I thought that perhaps the ORIGINAL files were corrupted, so I tested the files on the device through Finder, and found that they played just fine in iTunes.
Another issue that is perplexing me is the fact that I have FAR more songs listed in my "Songs" list than should be present on the device. Currently, I've synced just 2 playlists, with a total of 46 songs, though there is a good bit of crossover, so I should have something like 30 songs on my device. I have many, many more than this liste

My only concern is the battery. I'm not exactly what you would call a heavy user but usually look for about 3-4 hours screen time on an average. Mostly done by browsing the web, social media, A LOT of texting, a few YouTube videos and some Bluetooth streaming with my car AND my Moto 360.
So this things got a 3900 mah battery yet why does it feel closer to 2800. I understand that the device does have the higher resolution display and whatnot but do people not realize this thing has a 3900 MAH BATTERY?! Shouldn't that blow everything else out of the water? Like not even be close to any other phone. I switch between a Note 4 and the Turbo and I can get more screen on time with the Note 4 (5.5-6.5). Keep in the mind the Note 4 only has a 3250 battery (I think) and the same resolution display yet it's much larger. AND it runs touchwiz, something that destroys battery life.

In another thread various monthly data use amounts were discussed.I have an (grand fathered) unlimited plan, so data use is irrelevant.But I wondered what is the average monthly data consumption.This month is atypical for me at less than 200 megs so far. Usually it is more like a gig or more.What is your monthly data use?

What is your average data connection speeds? Yesterday I noticed that my speeds are severely lacking, especially when comparing to a HTC Inspire.When I called AT&T to inquire if my speeds were normal, the lady said no.After looking she said my SIM card number was wrong, again.This has become a frequent answer to most of the hiccups I've had since February.Side note, with this recurring SIM issue keep me from getting updated or will that be based on the IEMI?

When I receive a voice mail I don't get an audio alert. I don't see my voice mail until I look at the phone, which can be much later. How do I set my phone to get an audio alert?

my iPhone 4S used to notify me by bell alert everytime new email arrived.It used to notify me even when the phone was in stand by mode.It suddenly stopped doing that. Now I am not aware of receiving an email until I go to Mail application.Once in Mail app, it searches and if there is an email in the mail box then it gives me that bell alert and number of new emails appears there.But I have to be in Mail app. I am not aware of changing any settings, notification setting in Settings is still ON.
