        @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?
