Forerunner 55 update problems!

7453294 1 month ago

Since yesterday my Forerunner 55 is telling me every hour that there is a new update and ask to restart. Each time I accept and it is still doing that!

Anda now the GPS doesn't work anymore! It says I need to reboot the watch each and every time!

Anyone else with the same problem?

How to solve it? I reboot and and restart the watch several times already.

Had something like that in my fr965.

Connect the watch to Garmin Express and sync. That sometimes fixes it.

If not, then contact Garmin customer support, maybe they'll be able to tell you which file to delete.

How much free space is on the device?

There's a lot of space, I have only watchfaces installed: 1,80 MB

Sorry, I realized that the watch faces take up 1.8 MB, and there is a lot of free space.

1.8 MB is very little, not enough for an update. For example, I have 18 MB free.

Have you cleaned your activities recently?

Hi, I did a hard reset and the problem persists. I dont think that is a space issue.

Also tried with Garmin Express?

And you just release it and check. And then think about the result.

Yes. And everything seems normal: synchronization, software version (10.01), etc.
