Fenix 9 Sim: Position.hasConfigurationSupport returns false

Has anyone else noticed that Position.hasConfigurationSupport always returns false for Fenix 9 series in the simulator?

  • Yes, I found the same thing,  I changed my code a bit and now I'm waiting for someone with a real f9 to see what happens there.

  • Came here to see if there were reports of the same thing. Yes, even though (Position has :hasConfigurationSupport) is true the actual .hasConfigurationSupport is returning false on all the config enumerations and resulting (for me) in a IQ stack error on my glance using the pro-forma code to establish a .enableLocationEvents() callback.

    Workaround with a final else to set the lowest options = Position.LOCATION_ONE_SHOT

    however, any apps set to auto-update to new device support will get caught out ?

    I did read in the5krunner review of the Fenix9 series that GNSS on-device configuration was now not a user-config and it was just set to SatIQ but the API in the SIM at least is not recognising/reporting the right returns here

  • Speedy work Garmin SIM engineering - there are updates to the Fenix 9 series today in the device manager that add the missing SATIQ and change the other ID's ... 

    Position.hasConfigurationSupport(Position.CONFIGURATION_SAT_IQ)

    now returns true.
