This is still a problem for me using the Garmin connect app. CPE info never updates. It only works in Garmin express

This is still a problem on v4.5. Only way to get an up-to-date CPE file was to sync with Garmin Express. Annoying as it takes ages to get a 3D GPS fix (green ring).

Syncing with Garmin Express fixed the GPS issue. It is has not recurred. It was not necessary to delete the CPE file beforehand in my case.

Hi I have the same problem. I've gone for my usual 5km run and it has recorded it as shorter. I've checked my GPS is on and it is. It does tell me the my CPE info has expired. Any ideas on how I can fix this? It's been like this for the last 4 days.

Only using garmin express on windows currently works for me, garmin connect doesn't update the file.
