Running and Transportation

I know that transportation in lifelog is a beta-version but should it not be able to log transportation with somekind of accuracy. Everytime I'll go by car for more than one hour it logs it as four to eight minutes.
Some of my runs has also been logged completly wrong, a six kilometer run logs as 8.5 kilometer, nomater if gps is on or off. I dont think this kind of error-margin is ok.

wow  that's messed up, that means there is a problem with the way GPS data is handled in the new version (never really had problems with the old version) since when on a treadmill, your phone should definitely know that you are not actually changing location.

I'm having problems with the cycling, I cycle for pretty much exactly 30 minutes to, and from work every day. For some reason it detects this as 7 minutes cycling, and 10 minutes walking, 0  transport, 0 running. Which even if I was going slow, doesn't make sense since it only adds up to 17 minutes instead of 30....

This morning I have 4 minutes walking, and that's it. The map is tracking me correctly, so not sure why it thinks I got to work in 4 minutes.... I wish I could walk 10 miles in 4 minutes.

I really hope they fix this

I also have the same issues since the new update, everytime Im on the treadmill it states that I am driving and when riding my bike to work which is just under a 30 minute ride registers times like 11 minutes and therest as walking, although the animation does not show it as walking just standing still.

Prior to the update on the treadmill it seemed reasonable accurate giving the same sort of calories burned as the treadmill's computer.   So now apart from the buzzing for texts, emails and phone calls the band is currently useless to me.

Please have a fix soon!

Hi,

New version of Lifelog works much better. Transportation by car was detected almost perfectly today!

As far as I understand, transportation by car is detecting by Xperia Mobile phone. 

What about transportation by bicycle? Should I keep Xperia Mobile phone with me while cycling?  Or is it enough to take Smartband SWR10 with me?  Will test this weekend... 

Thank you!

Best regards, 

Anton.
