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

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

Hi all,

Some users have reported that AGPS are not being updated to their watch via the Suunto app.

I would like to ask the feedback of the community so.

Please follow the following instructions:

1. Sync the watch with the Suunto app
2. Wait 5-10minutes after syncing.
3. On the watch to go settings->general->About and check the AGPS date there to be the current date.
4. Vote on the poll with what you see there and if there is an issue please report the version and platform of the Suunto app you are using

Thank you !

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos
just to understand, why waiting 5min before checking ?

@Mff73 because it takes time to parse (unpack the AGPS and update the chip)

Is OK

@pescacebesforum looks good.

@pescacebesforum and @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos
I also done the test, it is OK, but it is SSU also, and the post is for S9/S5

Suunto 9 Baro
Suunto App latest Beta 4.6.0
Android 9

GPS works fine, no problems

In the picture you’ll see the time 00:00:00Z. Here is the difference to the Spartan Ultra, where there is a time stamp. In S9 Baro never.

The fix on the SSU is after a second, on the S9 after 5 to 10 seconds!

Mine says 2019-07-03T00:00:007 on Suunto 5.

EDIT: soft reset did the trick. Data is now up to date.

Mine has good date, but time is 00:00:00

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

Don’t worry about the time. Its when the chip provider , Sony etc timestamps the update. Once per day is enough. Keep the posts and votes coming. This is great.

ok for me.

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 Since few weeks (seems since last FW update) A-GPS file not in the watch : out of date or missing.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

@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
