For the last couple of weeks (possibly since the last android app update) I've been having intermittent issues syncing my edge 1000 with garmin connect on my phone.
I've always synced over Bluetooth in the past and never had an issue in the 2 years or so I've had it till now.
Issue is that after an activity is recorded it won't always sync with connect. Even manually going into the ride on the edge and pressing upload just gives an upload fail error on the edge.
sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt. Having messed with it for a long time now it seems to be an issue with the connection sync.
Going to the menu in garmin connect then garmin devices, when the edge initially connects over Bluetooth it does a sync operation. Sometimes this seems unsuccessful where the bar gets stuck halfway and the sync doesn't finish. If the initial sync bar gets stuck then the ride will fail to upload. Additionally even if this initial sync is successful, after the phone and device idle or are connected for a while it will do this operation again and again it can fail.
The only way to then get it to upload is to power cycle the Edge 1000 device.
Things I've tried so far;
Removing the edge Bluetooth connection from my phone.
Removing my phone pairing from the edge in the garmin connect app.
Removing my phone from the Edge itself.
Combinations of the above.
Uninstalling and reinstalling the connect app on my phone. Twice.
Multiple power cycles of both edge and phone.
Deleting ride history from my edge.
None of this has worked. If the initial connection sync bar gets stuck then disconnecting Bluetooth on my phone, closing and reopening the app does nothing. The only way to shift it on is a power cycle of the edge 1000 device.
Anyone else seeing this? It's immensely frustrating... there seem to be a few comments on android play store reviews of the connect app saying similar....
