A few annoying little foibles on the Garmin Edge 820 have been squashed with the latest v3.20 firmware.
My wifi software update kept getting stuck on the home page – not any more. Sometimes it was tricky navigating back onto a course – not any more. Panic at home as I DIDN’T have an accident – not any more.
You get the picture, here’s the list:
- Improved grade calculation.
- Improved interaction with Varia Vision.
- Improved Incident Detection to decrease false reports and fixed an issue causing it to be re-enabled unexpectedly.
- Added support for routing back to a Course after leaving it.
- Added Distance and Time Ahead/Behind as configurable data fields.
- Made improvements to the FTP Test.
- Added Saved Locations to Course Creator and Round Trip Course menus.
- Added the ability to navigate to a Segment.
- Fixed an issue preventing software updates from the About page.
