All,

Thank you very much for your patience as we worked on this issue. Please see the steps from My Garmin Device Will Not Boot Past the Start Up Screen for a resolution. If you already performed the steps involving the button presses and are still stuck on the triangle, please try them again.

If you are still experiencing any issues regarding this, please contact Product Support directly.

Thank you, and we are again very sorry for any frustration!

I'v tried this several times today, but the problem is still there. Can't perform any GPS involved activity.

first I have tried this:

"If your device will not boot past the start up screen, try the following recovery step:

Press and hold the power/light button on the device until the watch shuts off. This can take up to 15 seconds.
Press the power/light button to turn the device back on."

it did not help then I tried the 2nd option:

Press and hold the power button until the watch powers off
Press and hold Start/Stop and Back buttons
Power on watch, while continuing to hold the buttons
After the first beep release Start/Stop button
After second beep release Back button

after the second beep I can see a rebooting screen for about 1 sec then nothing happens, I can only see the blue triangle again.

Any other idea??

Mijn forerunner 265s geeft ook een blauwe driehoek en reageert nergens op. Niets helpt.
