        @bradweber Suunto is now aware of the issue, but they need logs to act, so if anyone can reproduce this and send logs it will be more than appreciated, otherwise fixing it will be a problem.

        As for the track in your particular case, I don’t think that was recorded because of this bug. You can try contact support.

            I have been trying to replicate the bug with no luck, always get the track. Can you tell me which sport mode where you using, which if any S+ fields, configuration, etc.

            I will keep trying.

              Tried to reproduce this as well today.
              Got a track for the whole activity. Had to calibrate the compass after switching to Ultra.
              Don’t know what happens if you don’t do this.

                @egika I did run without calibration, and got a very good track anyway 😕

                  @bradweber I attempted to reproduce this over the last weekend, switching modes and I have a GPS track for the entire hike. Is it possible that you lost GPS because you selected where satellites were not visible? This has been a suggestion.

                    @brad_olwin Well, I do not think so. GPS signal was fine. It also could be that watch got confused as I was switching between modes back and forth. Mostly, when we stopped somewhere and stayed there for longer time, I switched to Endurance and when we start moving again, switched it back to Performance. I agree that it is very hard to reproduce as most of the time it is working properly. I can guess only, but the problem occured probably twice.
                    Another thing could be that I am using custom sport mode for every activity. In the past, when any problem occured (mostly with multisport), it always helped to delete and recreate that custom activity again. So, I can guess only, it also could be connected with malfunctioning customized sport mode. I cannot prove that because I re-created it already… 😞

                      @zadow I will keep trying to reproduce it, so far no tester has been able to. If it happens to you, can you send logs with the app and send me a private message?

                        @bradweber did this happen in a aid station? I mean, did you switch to ultra inside the station?
