Important: is your S9/S5/Spartan AGPS up-to-date when Syncing with the Suunto app?

[JuanPh]

A bit of topic but I don’t think so : Spartan trainer with Suuntolink. Since few weeks (seems since last FW update) A-GPS file not in the watch : out of date or missing. Sync with Suuntolink only sync parameters but now GPS optimization. Needs 12s soft reset so that Suuntolink begin GPS optimization. Same after a few days : GPS optimisation starts only after 12s reset

My S9 Baro says 2019-06-24T00:00:00Z
Android 9, Suunto App (Beta) v.4.6.0

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos I did a 12 sec soft reset then re-synced and got an updated AGPS. Got GPS immediately on today’s ride. Last night (before I did reset and with the old AGPS), took about 10 min to get GPS signal. Looks like a soft reset did it for me. We’ll see if that is a permanent solution or if soft reset will be needed in another few weeks. Thanks!

@Jessica-Monk please keep me posted

S9 - AGPS file has been updated by SA without an issue.

… and just to give feedback: the time required for a fix has improved significantly to approx. 5-25 seconds (mostly obviously depending on the place and its reception) with the new firmware and the obviously and at least for me better handling of the AGPS-file.
As I currently (‘only and always’) use GPS+Galileo I didn’t want to stress this, as I cant quite figure out if the combination improves the time for a fix compared to GPS or not …

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos the issue was here before the last watch / app update too.

I did 12s reset and didn’t work either: it shows n/a, then updates correctly. However consecutive syncing does not update agps. Currently it is 2019-07-12.

One additional thing, strange app behavior:

Whenever I sync watch (with or without new move), this happens:

• moves sync ok (strava notification arrives)
• sync activities (1-3 second)
• sync sleep (1-3 second)
• optimizing gps (green line goes around very slow, reaches 30-60%, then interrupts)
• sync activities (very fast, split second)
• sync sleep (very fast, split second)
• optimizing gps (very fast, split second)

Today I noticed that AGPS on SSU (after SA sync) shows
2019-07-19T12:05:01Z

so it seam that is 3 days old.

Same issue on S5: 2019-07-18T00:00:00Z.

NOT AN S9 here, but for the sake of testing …

This is the first time I see that AGPS is not updated.
I charged the watch via cable on Saturday (21) sync activity on Sunday (22) with both SA and MC but the file is dated 2019-07-19T12:05:01Z

I didn’t checked it this w.e. since I never had such issue

EDIT :
Just to double check I’ve connected the cable now. The file has been updated but the date is 2019-07-21
… anyway, newer that the old one but I see that SL shows repeatedly “updating AGPS” screen

@sartoric hey. We are hunting the sync repeatedly bug. Please create a post and add the system details.
