gps fix very slow

Former Member over 5 years ago

Hello,

The GPS fix on my venu is very slow, as in +10 min...

I saw the solution was to update the gps software to 2.70.. but how?

i am on software 2.50 and if i ask to update the venu tells me the latest updates are installed..

Thanks! I checked and the CPE was expired. I connected the Venu to Garmin Express, CPE changed to current and did a GPS soak. Now the GPS shows ready in less than 15 seconds.

Suggest looking at this:

Then sync using Garmin Express

I have this same exact issue, it happens every time.

Is this consistent every single time you try to get a lock?
