      @Runner maybe is related to the issues that are having Garmin and Suunto with the cache of the GPS chip. 🤷🏽‍♂️

        @Runner Check the GPS track, mine was way off and so was my altitude. There is clearly a problem with AGPS, this is a Sony issue. It is not a problem with the watch. Reboot the watch to clear the cache.

          @Brad_Olwin I checked and it was a bit off. Today it worked good. But I’m just nit sure, if I should try to solve somehow the problem with the GPS optimizatio, or just wait 🤔

            I also got 2 days in a row with barometer spikes during the activity.
            The strange thing is that I see the spikes only on the watch graph. A fast drop afterwards causes a storm alert.
            The JSON file however doesn’t show the spike at all. ?!?

                @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos is this just a Sony chipset problem? Yesterday I was able to record an activity with a Garmin device but not with my Spartan. After 15min looking for GPS, I finally returned to watch mode…

                  @suzzlo I assume it is Sony. Started yesterday on my S9, too. First kilometer (approx) was a disaster, than the track stabilized. Today the same with a different activity (biking instead of running).
                  At the same time my wife’s S5 was spot in.

                  using a Suunto Vertical & Suunto Wings; mostly running (AKA stomping around) and cycling through the northern german "wilderness", and wherever else I have the chance to do so
