GPS not working

Hi, I have a 2 weeks old Garmin Venu 2, I updated to latest 5.33 update, just tonight I noticed that when i started my Walk the GPS did not activate. Previously it only takes seconds to activate it but tonight i tried many times but the GPS didnt got activated. Its frustrating.

Try a hard reset first (holding down the A button until it turns off (past the emergency notification message), wait a few seconds then turn back on by briefly holding the A button. Make sure to sync with the app before going so it gets the latest satellite location data. You can also try syncing on a laptop using garmin express and see if that helps.

Yes I also have this issues and more with Barometer(it's fluctuating not stable..it has big deviation) I did test the barometer in the service menu all ok...maybe it;s software 5.33 with bugs

Also for the GPS even if it is acquire faster, after you finish the activity the actual point and the start location has 150m deviation witch is not ok

I did all kind resets, restarts, sync(wi-fi, garmin connect, express) no fix at all if you did all this and have the same issue report to local support call them email etc..
