Technology - New Garmin Forerunner 15

I picked up my new watch today. Curtesy of my Tesco Vouchers. Its on charge and I've been into the Garmin website to check for updates, which of course there were. Imagine my surprise when the watch could only do 2 out of 4 updates as it had run out of space. I took the option to delete any unwanted data, not that I recorded anything anyway and still there was not enough room for the updates. Very strange?

Seems a bit odd. Faulty perhaps?

I hope not. It managed the system update, which I suppose is the most important one. I'm hoping the others were just nice to have but not really necessary. I'll try it on a run tomorrow and see what happens.

Check out the post on the 'Cheapest Garmin Ever?' Zev1963 explained what to do. Don't have one myself but I'm sure it will be very clear to you once you read it ;) Hope that works for you and it's not faulty x

Thanks. The simple answer worked for me. I just tried again the next day after disconnecting and reconnecting the Garmin.

Thanks. The simple answer worked for me. I just tried again the next day after disconnecting and reconnecting the Garmin. I didn't need to go in to delete runs as I knew I didn't have any. Now time to go run and find out if I have a heart. :-)
