Device is paired fine and sync of HR / steps etc are working fine. When trying to send a training plan to the device though I get the supremely unhelpful 'An error has occurred' .
A training plan, with Garmin's framework, involves a series of custom workouts scheduled (in temporal relation to one another) in a user's calendar in Garmin Connect.
As far as I'm aware, the Forerunner 35 does not support custom workouts, and therefore there is no facility and no point for sending training plans to the FR35.
Same issue even trying to send the training plan from web version of GC. As I can successfully send a single custom workout from both web and Android versions of GC, I suppose it's a GC issue.
