Hi, I recently received a Versa 2. The step tracker has been working well, and I had done several runs (both indoor and outdoor) with the tracking and pace appearing to be working correctly. I didn't completely understand the GPS function, and I ended up tracking an indoor run with the GPS turned on (I brought my phone with me to listen to music, which i had not done before, forgetting to turn off the GPS connection). It tracked a 3.7km run as only 2.1km, throwing my pace off.
Since then, the pace and distance numbers have been completely off. I have turned off the GPS, and even turned off bluetooth connectivity to my phone when running, with no change in results. I tested with a walk (not a run) with GPS turned on, and everything checked out. However running is not working. Today, it was telling me my pace was slower (15min/km) when running, compared to my walking (11min/km).
I think indoor GPS run must have screwed something up. Is there a way to reset this? I'd prefer to not do a factory reset, but understand I might as a last result. The device is not really usable at this point.

Did this fix your issue? This is so annoying. A lot of the time mine won't even track my heart rate properly either. Only had it a week and super disappointed with it.
