![]() ![]() TIP: If you want to do a TOTAL hard reset when suspecting data corruption you can erase MOST data from the watch (on Fenix+ you cannot - at least at this moment - erase all the directories from /GARMIN folder, some remain, also there is no way to FORMAT it like on earlier models)Īfter disconnecting the watch from you PC it will take relatively longer to restart but it will rebuild the data structure from backup (some user data will be also restored but NOT ALL, for example map files need to be manually uploaded from the backup). WARNING: It clears ALL user made settings, apps, watch faces, data fields, current activities, totals etc! You will have to reconfigure the watch, reload apps, watchfaces etc. The device will boot back up and you will be prompted to enter your profile information. When you hear the second beep (couple seconds after first beep) let the back (lower right) button goĦ. When you hear the first beep (after couple seconds) let the Start (upper right) button goĥ. Once the Garmin Logo appears Press and hold the Start and Back buttons.Ĥ. Power off the fenix 5 and wait for couple secondsģ. Hard reset (for clearing problems with corrupted data, garmin logo loop, missing activities etc)ġ. Switch off (if hanged): hold LIGHT button for at least 25 seconds It is an updated post from Fenix 3 forum:ĭATA BACKUP: It is wise to backup the whole /GARMIN directory of your watch before doing anything else, as some of the files (maps for example) will not be restored from the FW file or by Garmin Express if they get corrupted or erased! To help some newer users I put together some info about dealing with problems. ![]()
