Device went green for GPS signal.
Heart rate and time tracked.
No range.
I stopped the tracking and restarted.
Still no range.
I conserved it and got a “saving” loop of death.
Reset the device.
Update: This concern exceeds the GPS. The Fenix doesnt appear to be able to track indoor activities that connect through sensors, say a foot pod or speed sensing unit on a indoor bike on rollers. An indoor bike trip wouldnt tape-record range and led to the same “saving loop” as an outdoor run..
What you get if you track any activity on a Garmin Fenix smartwatch. Garmins smartwatch issues continue as GPS and run tracking for range wasnt offered and gadgets such as the Fenix line were captured in a “saving” loop that needed a reset.
At the minute, its unclear whether the GPS signal problems with the Garmin gadgets belong to the businesss ransomware attack and bungled handling of it, however your Sunday early morning run will not be measured.
My run went like this (of course I stopped it to compose this short article). Well leave out the humidity concern for now.
What you get if you track any activity on a Garmin Fenix smartwatch. Garmins smartwatch woes continue as GPS and run tracking for range wasnt offered and gadgets such as the Fenix line were captured in a “saving” loop that needed a reset. Well upgrade as needed, but the brief variation is that Garmins problems simply got even worse. Its one thing when Garmin informs you your information is ok and stored on the watch.
Twitter grievances appear to validate the exact same issue as runners Sunday am are questioning what life was like without quantified runs.
Well update as needed, but the brief variation is that Garmins problems simply worsened. When Garmin tells you your data is okay and kept on the watch, its one thing. When the watch doesnt gather data properly and fails to link to the GPS signal, its another. At that point youre using an expensive brick on your wrist.
