Probably needs a factory reset. Have you tried that?

Hi,

By Settings/System/Restore Defaults ?

Yes but the issue is always present ...

That should do it

Settings >> System >> Restore Defaults >> Yes

Make sure you've selected "Yes"

The device will then restart. You'll know it reset correctly if you get the initial wizard prompting you for language, etc.

Already done but don't work ...

Sounds like you'll need to contact Garmin support by phone or chat (fastest) or email.

They said me to do an hard reset but doesn't work either ...

You called them? Did you get a case number? They should not close your case until your issue is resolved.

Yes but my warranty is exceeded

some additional things you can try

1) using mac ? clear bin

2) check watch for large files in REMOTESW folder and remove them

3) check watch for large files in GARMIN(root) folder and remove them

4) verify memory state in service menu

there is a service menu where you can check all sorts of things

turn the watch off

press down and light button

let go of the light button when you see a 'Triangle' or 'Garmin Logo'

keep pressing down button until a beep and a menu shows on the screen

check report memory status ?

you can leave the service menu by pressing the light button

happy & safe sporting
