Slow (very slow) GPS response on new acitivty
-
This may have been answered in other subjects / posts but a quick scan didn’t bring anything up.
-
@matthinsh not a generic issue AFAIK… works fine/fast for me
-
@matthinsh Make sure under Settings/About on the watch you have a current AGPS file. It sounds as if the AGPS is not there or is old.
-
@Brad_Olwin yeah I do that, all up to date. I think it’s a HW problem, all good thanks

I have a similar issue. Updates on the Assisted GPS, but any time I am within the vicinity of a building, or not completely outdoors, I am lucky if I manage to get GPS acquisition at all. Is this a known issue? I only received the watch in December 2023, but at present, my 5 year old Garmin Forerunner 235 is more effective in gaining a GPS lock. It is extremely frustrating.

When you connect to the gps, are you moving? I can get the gps quickly when I stop moving.

Me too this week, been awful, takes minutes.

@Mff73 so the new software update did not improve the gps issue on my s9pp
-
@mikel
If everything is checked on software side, then it could be hardware, and then, only suunto support could help.
GPS is also hardware linked. -
@Mff73 I hope not. Is my 4th 9 peak pro. Every Watch was broken after short time with different failures
