Motorola Motoactv :: Latest Update "Improve "Pause" Functionality"?
Jul 17, 2012
what the improved pause functionality is? I'm pretty sure my watch updated correctly (but I don't have it with me to verify as I write this), and the new pause sure seems identical to the old pause. There was a thread a while back where people discussed ways to reduce the likelihood of prematurely ending the workout by hitting the "end workout" touchscreen button, and cool things that could be made available at the pause screen. I saw "Improve "Pause" functionality during workouts" as one of the improvements with the latest software, and got excited that some or all of those suggestions had been implemented. I have pressed all buttons and swiped every which way and have not found any changes.

Ever since upgrading the firmware on my Motoactv to MA 1.7.2 E8, I've had a problem with the Pedometer.I can't really say what it is doing on a general day to day basis, but when on the cross trainer at the gym it appears to be losing steps - however, it does appear to be counting them.For example, yesterday morning I went to the gym and as usual I set my Motoactv to Elliptical workout and put it in my pocket. When I started, my steps for the day were around 1700.Part way through my workout, I checked my Motoactv and it was showing over 4500 steps so it all seemed to be fine, and it was clearly registering my "steps" on the elliptical.When I stopped, after 1 hour 45 minutes, I checked my Motoactv and it was showing 1600 steps - less than I started with! According to prevoius workouts on the earlier firmware, I'd expect my steps to be approximately 14000-15000 higher than when I'd started after such a workout.All the stats in "Recent" were consistent with earlier workouts of a similar magnitude and time (i.e. distance, calories, avg/max stride rate). Also, if I look on the Motoactv website, I can see my strides being in excess of 14000.This is the second time I've noticed my steps being way off, though I don't always check my steps. However, I'm fairly certain it was working perfectly prior to the latest firmware upgrade. I definitely clocked more than 20000 steps during the day in the past, so if it is "rolling over" back to zero, it wasn't doing this in the past.

I just bought an 8GB MOTOACTV yesterday in Hong Kong and the existing version of software is 1.7.3 A8. I tried to install MOTOCAST on 2 PCs (system: WinXP & Windows Vista) and both are upgraded to 2.0.31, but when I check the software update for MOTOACTV itself, the MOTOCAST told me no update for me for the timebeing.
The fact is there is 1.7.11 A8 out there and maybe 1.7.12 A8 as the guy introduced me to buy have the exact same device (only this version in same store) with Golf function on. Meanwhile, when the device connect to WiFi yesterday evening, I saw once the words of "Software Update Availabe, please connect the computer to update" shown on the device.

I consider myself an above average tech savvy consumer and I love gadgets and gear. I plunged in and bought the MOTOACTV because, I love the concept of an all-in-one device. I love that it's small and lightweight. I've used the device once before accidently dropping it resulting in a big chip. I have some suggestions to protect the glass, and perhaps make the MOTOACTV more user friendly during the workout. I noticed that the glass is beveled above the frame. While beveling is attractive for design, it seems risky for glass, even "Gorilla glass." (1) I suggest bringing the lip of the MOTOACTV frame over the glass. My guess is that that will reduce the number broken screen incidents. I appreciate that once in the clip, the MOTOACTV is pretty firmly seated. I was wearing the clip on my waistband (I'm only about 5lbs overweight according to the BMI, so that means I don't have a big spare tire spilling over my waistband) when it fell off moments into the run. Fortunately, I was wearing wired headphones, so the MOTOACTV did not go crashing to the ground. So, (2) make the clip an optional accessory and the armband or wristband standard. The armband or wristband would allow easier access MOTOACTV during a workout, reduce the need to handle the MOTOACTV during the workout thereby reducing the risk of dropping it.
Maybe my experience of a broken screen is uncommon. I live in New Englang and like to workout outside even during the winter. That means gloves and less dexterity in handling small items. Even without winter weather, I think something this small can easily be dropped unless prevenative measures are in place.My last suggestion for the MOTOACTV after my brief experience is a screen lock to prevent accidental input during workouts. This would be particularly useful if Motorola continues to issue the clip as the standard mounting form. Several times during my run I accidentally forwarded to the next song or started a song over by accidently tapping the screen. Music is important to getting in the groove of a workout (where music is being used) and anything that interrupts the groove is very frustrating and who needs that when they are already in pain!?! Further, go back to point 1, accidental input while MOTOACTV is on the waistband is a reason to handle it during a workout/run and a chance to drop it and be unhappy with Motorola.

I don't always use the music feature when I run. Is there a way to turn it "off" and not just pause the songs?

Since updating to 4.55.97 on my 8GB it doesn't seem to Auto-Resume after an Auto-Pause. This worked before, but on my run today it Auto-Paused at two stop lights when I stopped, but after starting running again it wouldn't resume on its own and I had to press Start to get it going again

After the update to 2.2 I can no longer disable the screen lock "slider". Has any been able to get it to work like it did in previous versions? I do not want to have to use the slider everytime the phone sleeps.

I was checking the portal today and noticed that the schedule section at the top of the page displays incorrect workout info - see screenshot attached.
I am sure that I have not exercised today (it is Sunday, duh) ... yet the schedule shows that I had an exercise today (see red dot on the schedule). So I checked the device and verified that there was no exercise today on the device. And when I clicked to check details on the portal, I saw last week's exercise data.

When using the metric menu to change visible metrics on the "latest workout" tab, I am constantly fighting the list disappearing on me.I'll elaborate. I am on the "latest workout" tab. I want to view my heart rate, so I click on the second metric. I move the mouse pointer to the right to select Heart Rate. Before I can click on it, it's gone.I've figured out that if I move my mouse pointer directly to the right, instead of down or diagonal and to the right, the list will stay up. However, I find it's more natural for me to not move directly to the righ

My wife and I noticed that neither one of our Droid Xs can get the GPS to lock on.Before the latest update we both were using the gps while in Chicago and on the way back to New York the week of August 1rst.This week we can't get the gps to work on either phone; it will continually keep searching and searching.I've been trying for three days now.We have tried 3rd party gps apps and that will not work.We have tried rebooting both phones and pulling batteries, and it still will not fix the problem. Everything else works on the phone- wifi, blue tooth, calls, etc.

DROIDX from Motorola.
System Version: 4.5.605.MB810.Verizon.en.US
Android Version: 2.3.3
Baseband version: BP_C_01.09.13P
Not sure if any other information is necessary, but since the latest update on our phone, after getting into the camera application it freezes and stop responding to the direction you point it at. If we back out of the camera application to the home screen, the phone is still responsive, it is just the camera that we are having issues with.

We updated to Motocast 1.3.9 and AVG Antivirus immediatley flagged the MOTOCAST-THUMBNAILER.EXE as a virus, deleting the file and moving the program to the virus vault.As there is clearly something going on that triggers protection, we are uninstalling the program and will wait until we are advised that the program exhibits safe behavior.We suggest that you fix the program, or IF it is safe, contact AVG and other Antivirus vendors so that this program is not flagged in error.

After the latest update I lost my hotmail account and charter account. They are seen in my accounts but nulled out. I can not delete them. Also, if I try to add them back, I have no options anymore for adding email accounts. It only gives options for Facebook, Google, LinkedIn, Lotus Notes, and Skype and the lotus notes and skype is there because I additionally installed that. Does anyone review functions of the phone before they release updates or are we all just Beta testers for Sprint and Motorola. I had just got my phone fixed with all the other issues.

The new Android release has removed the ability in the music player to stop a song, and you can no longer clear out a playlist (I don't mean deleting a playlist, I mean clearing one out, which essentially stopped music from being played). Tech support level 2 told me that this was purposely done by the engineers at Motorola, but I have no idea why, and I can't seem to get in touch with them.

Last night on my home computer I message popped up that MotoCast had an update. It showed it going from 1.2.9 to something starting with a 2.x number.I thought great, MotoCast is rather incomplete, has error issues and is a bit stale.When I clicked the update it then told me that there was no internet connection (not true).When I went to MotoCast and invoked check for updates it told me that I had the latest version (1.2.9).I also plugged in the MotoActv and checked for any device updates. Nothing (I'm on MA 1.6.12 N16 for my 16 GB unit).

I have done a factory reset and updated Motocast. When the update is in progress, the device shows a image of a file with a status bar for about 2-3 seconds. Next, the image shows a file with an exclamation point. Finally, the device restarts. I get a dialoge box that states.

After the last update my computer brought up a screen saying to enter in my Proxy information. This is the first time it did it and I don't have any proxy information. Since then my motoactv will connect to my network but won't sync the data over wifi. If I use usb I can sync music but no fitness data. I tried the basic stuff like forgetting my network or using my phone as a hotspot but nothing worked. So i deceided I would do a factory reset. I would only lose one day of data plus one run and one golfing outing. I do the factory reset and now it won't connect at all. It gives me an error code 360.Now to my GPS problem. Before the update it would lock on in 10- 15 sec. Now it takes almost the full 5 min and sometimes it won't do it at all. Everything was fine before the update.
