Default Compass and Altimeter Not Working

I traded up my 2013 Boxster S to a 2021 Boxster GTS, with Chrono about 2 months ago. After about a month of ownership, on a canyon road I took a rock on the windshield and cracked it. I had it replaced by Safelite with an original Porsche windshield. All the safety features are working great, Lane change and cameras work same as before the replacement and I'm not getting any codes. I called the dealer and they said there was no need to bring it in, as long as things were working fine. I took it on a trip over the weekend and I noticed on the "Home" screen there is an altimeter and compass, but they don't work. Could this be because of the windshield replacement or there another reason? Thanks. By the way, love the car everything the S was but so much more!

Do you have NAV? My understanding is those features are only available with navigation.

And same thing with the speed limit display. Having said that, on newer cars, you also need an active Nav subscription (if expired). That sucks, so I didn't order Nav on my upcoming '24.
