my friend could you please make version 2.5 available?

Yes, I have to upload it to storage now.
Should be ready by tomorrow. I will link it here as soon as it’s done.
Unfortunately my upload speed is capped at 600kbs 
The other news is that I have version 2.6 as well now.
I think it does not get as warm as version 2.7.
A lot of this is difficult to judge because people are having different experience with these firmware versions.
I can only speculate as to the reason for this. Personally I believe it is a mixture of using the same parts, but from various manufacturers and possibly assembly line issues.

I have updated to 2.7 and made 2x factory resets on the watch and got no problems with getting warmer then like on lower firmware.

that’s nice.
However, me and a couple of other users reported the overheating issue with 2.7. I guess you’re one of the lucky ones.
I have no idea why this happens. Same software should work equally good/bad on same hardware.
Our watches may pack different parts.
Yes, that is what I was thinking as well.
I can’t see any other explanation.
Can we expect any more updates or this is the last one? Don’t want to hack it, if it’s still under development.
Couldn’t speak to future updates but flashing to 2.7 definitely isn’t worth the trouble. My watch running 2.7 overheated only once, but it was in sleep mode when it did, which makes no sense. I was also thinking of downgrading to 1.6 or 2.5 tempted by reported longer battery life and would do it in a heartbeat if I weren’t a little spooked by this post left on kospet forums:
I started the OTA update with 91% battery, but it crashed and then restarted continuously. He worked for 2 hours, constantly restarting, but he couldn’t quit. It got really hot and didn’t start again. When I put it on the charger, the display will show Kospet then a black display.
Some different versions added up in the original post to give options - including the Optimus Lite 2gb/16gb version
Also - here is a tip for helping people with low speaker volume issue. People who do not have the little pressure relief valve hole on the rear cover of the watch.
I have tested and I am sure that this will help those people who are having low speaker volume issues. As always - YOU DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!
It’s actually very simple to do - very carefully remove the rear cover of the watch. Take out the 4 little screws holding it down and VERY gently pry open the case at the rear with a plastic tool or tooth pick. It is a VERY tight fit - so be very careful!!
Gently lift the cover but do not try to pull it away from the watch. It is not necessary.
Then just replace the cover and replace the 4 screws. That’s it
I have tested this and I can confirm that once the cover is replaced the speaker functions normally.
I guess the seal must be creating a vacuum and it affects the sound. You can try this if you want to.

Thanks for your efforts!
What is your experience with these firmwares? The newer the better? I’m reading bad stuff about firmware 2.7 for the optimus Pro… But is that really true? New options added to new firmware? Or better performance?
Have you noticed any changes to the watch with 2.7? Just asking since there is now change log provided.
I cant see any difference between this two firmware, I updated because wanted the sedentary reminder, but can’t find it even on t 2.7.
Not sure about sedentary reminder…
Is this an alarm of some sort? I must admit - I’ve never looked at it…
Anyway, here’s some good news for all of us.
I managed to get the GPS enabled fitness app and thanks to our good friend @iscle it will install on the watches even if you already have the stock fitness app.
You need to remember that this app is not witelisted so if you are using the square screen mode on your watch, you will need to turn it off so that the app will display properly.
Many brands did not want to include the GPS enabled version because it obviously uses a lot more battery than the standard version.
Download here and just install like any app
I hope this helps 
PS - I will post this in another area as well so that everyone can see it.
It works on all the watches apart from any that use FunOS or the older Finow watches like the X5 or earlier.

To be honest @Marcel_Visser I don’t notice much difference at all. The newest version (2.7) definitely lasts longer in long standby mode and more languages are added but apart from that - I don’t notice anything else…

Has anyone tested the new gps enabled fitness apps? Seems like myrunningapp is working pretty well. Any good reason to switch to the native apps ?
I just installed it. Now there are two fitness apps.
Version 1.0 and 1.3.
Ill take it out for a spin today and try and compare it to myrunningapp.
