      @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos ok thanks… I also only rarely

      what is interesting new to me also: seems to be a difference between APGS Update from Suunto link and APP… APP gave me not the 30-06 file now. Suunto link did the update to 30-06 …

          @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos APP cache… maybe I should have closed the app before and open it again ok… But Suunto Link is also very comfortable because goes so fast…

                  @mountainChris did you use Galileo? Just asking because there were issues with Galileo sats very recently. Anyway I never had issues with GPS fix, except once after a soft reset (I had to wait 10/15 minutes before getting a lock).

                    Tried both. Regularly GPS+beidoo… I had with agps a flashing green arrow. This is very very rare. Usually 99.9% GPS conformation within seconds. With the soft reset I made the situation worse. Now I know the 15min. Next time I will run in 0.1% with flashing green arrow (start screen)…

                      @mountainChris I have asked the developers to add something like : pending for AGPS

                      I think it will happen eventually. Everyone gets buggered about this.

                      Btw it’s not 15min in total. Its in max. The best todo is after a reset to literally :

                      Sync
                      Be outdoors or close to a window
                      Wait 5 mins and check AGPS x3

                      Not the best but a soft reset is the ultimate situation and it’s good that it clears the GPS chipset cache in order to avoid such things.

                      FYI: After AGPS is aquired the signal should be very very fast for a “cold” start. Sometimes even faster than normal “warm” starts.

                          Reset: hard reset via suunto link?
                          Cold start: soft reset?
                          Warm start: without reset, normal?
