Wahoo update bug - devices showing 2 Jan 2006

If that were the cause wouldn‘t it have gone wrong in 2019, a couple of years after release? I suspect it’s not the chipsets just Wahoo’s interpretation of the messages being incorrect after their latest updates.

Could be. It's certainly not as simple as jyst missing the rollover, as DC Rainmaker suggests, because that happened 8 years ago.

Whatever... What's important is whether they can fix it. We'll never know the root cause, and as long as it gets fixed it's pretty irrelevant. But fun to learn about all the same.

Yep, agreed.
Im not particularly bothered what's caused it although be interesting to know, I'd just like it sorted and soon as possible.
I'm back out to Mallorca in a couple of weeks so I'd really want it done before then.

Update - Aug 22, 5:21 PM ET​

Thank you for your continued patience as we work to resolve the GPS time issue on ELEMNT, BOLT 1, and ROAM 1 computers. We know how frustrating this has been, and we truly appreciate your understanding.

We have identified a firmware solution and will be testing it thoroughly this weekend to ensure it's completely stable. We expect the testing to take at least three days.

We will release the fix via a standard firmware update as soon as we have confirmed the solution. Our team is working hard to get you back on the road.

I am surprised that no-one saw it coming..they have said it is to do with the 10 bit capacity and it was a hard break on that specific date. The code is not that old that no-one understands it anymore. Fingers crossed for the fix
