Bad GPS while hiking
-
Not sure if this could be related to latest firmware update (i didn’t notice problem with last two cross country skiing). But today i did small hike, i noticed that altitude is measured as steps on graph. And it was continues climb about 10-15% so it should not show steps. On the way back by little different route i lost gps signal and i did’t saw altitude at all. Than it jumped down, than app again.

@tomas5
That could be (very probable) a Gps signal issue.
Remember that since 5 has no baro, it relies on GPS only for altitude data -
@sartoric yes it can be seen on mat that on way back there is first kilometer just strait line on map but it wasn’t.
It should looks like this:

It seems that the GPS went boo boo. It may be the obligatory “you didn’t wait long enough for the green arrow to get a better fix”. Or something along those lines.
Or Galileo. Or GLONASS. Or space dwarfs.

@łukasz-szmigiel on way to top i got gpx fix at begining, on way back i spend few minutes inside building on top so it could lost gps but i don’t understand why it than took tens of minutes to get gps fix. But who knows it it was one time issue i don’t care. If it will happen again i will report.
