Huawei Watch GT 3 Pro user report bugs after HarmonyOS 2.1.0.417 update
Huawei Watch GT 3 Pro is a smartwatch with lots of specialties including beautiful aesthetics but recently a user reported bugs, that occurred after HarmonyOS 2.1.0.417.
According to the information, HarmonyOS 2.1.0.417 for Huawei Watch GT 3 Pro rolled out in Europe in October last year, and the company has not released a new software update since then for the global models.
The user reveals that the Watch GT 3 Pro Snowboarding training mode doesn’t always record race data, speed, and other important parameters of the training. It’s also reported that the watch needs to restart the smartwatch and re-enable the workout to record the data.
Coming to the next bug, appears when you try to check the records/training log on the smartwatch under the snowboarding mode including readings such as distance tab and within laps.
It’s also noted that the issue could be the lapse count. However, as you can see in the video linked below, the smartwatch keeps on ‘sort of’ restarting as it blocks the rotating crown actions.
This is quite frustrating as a user but similar issues have been noticed online on Huawei Community.

A user wrote “The ski and snowboard activities do not work on the GT3 watch. They seem to start and find the GPS signal, but the measurements stay at 0.”
On that, a Huawei official moderator replied that “if Skiing or Snowboarding is enabled on your watch, but you are not skiing nor snowboarding, your watch will not record the time as it does not detect the skiing and snowboarding state. You can check the timer after skiing or snowboarding for a while.”
However, that didn’t resolve these Huawei Watch GT 3 Pro bugs. All we can wait is for a new software update, which may come soon but there’s no confirmation whether it’s a hardware or a software issue.
Huawei FreeBuds 5 is coming and soon it will meet the consumers, of course, the plans for this are hidden but the latest inputs will help us to understand its soon-to-release schedule.
According to the details shared by tipster classmateguan, Huawei FreeBuds 5 will launch soon and will continue to wear a semi-in-ear design, which is a marquee style of the earbuds pair. The tipster predicts that March could be the month to bring these earbuds out in the open. It’s possible that the recently leaked FreeBuds Pro 2+ may also share the stage with FreeBuds 5.
It’s been over 2 years since the launch of Huawei FreeBuds 4 earbuds and the tech company, in the time between, has released a new model – FreeBuds 5i. However, that’s just a filler, while the customers have been waiting for a mainstream pair of earbuds.
As for now, we don’t have the specs of the next FreeBuds lineup but we can surely know more about its predecessor.
Huawei FreeBuds 4 brings an open-fit active noise cancellation 2.0 technology. It has adaptive ear-matching technology to detect your in-ear shape and how you wear the earbuds. Then it smartly selects a variety of noise-cancellation presets.
Huawei FreeBuds 4 comes in two aesthetically awesome colors – Ceramic White and Silver Frost. These earbuds are light and each of them weighs just 4.1 grams. It supports gestures and tap support, tap twice to answer and end calls, play/pause music, previous/next song or enable voice assistant. It has a swipe up and down to increase or decrease volume.
Huawei FreeBuds 4 include a special touch of tap and hold, which allows you to enable or disable noise cancellation. This pair of earbuds bring a big battery, it will boast 22 hours of battery with a charging case and ANC off. While you will get 4 hours from FreeBuds only.
