Element Roam v2 Wrong Ascent

1

Hi everyone,
since a few weeks my Elemnt Roam v2 (Model: WFCC6) started recording ascent incorrectly. I’m running last software release version WC50-17055.

While the ascent is reported correctly in the climbing section it’s not in the main page of the ride and when reported incorrectly in the activity saved.

For example, this is yesterday ride:

Ascent reported is 835 on Wahoo while is 1202 on Strava (can’t post a screenshot of it coz I’m a new users :upside_down_face:)

This is happening since a while now, on different rides, some of those I know very well and I’m 100% positive the ascent calculation is broken.

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks,
Lorenzo

Hey Lorenzo, you’re not alone — I’m seeing something similar on my Bolt, but in the opposite direction: it overestimates by a lot (like 5x the actual ascent). Definitely feels like something’s off in the elevation processing lately. Hope Wahoo looks into this soon!
