Connect imports RUN as "Other"

I am having the same problem with my vivosmart hr. It stored my cycle yesterday under other no matter what I activity I changed it to.

I did a "master reset" as per
support.garmin.com/.../case.faces
Re-configured my Fenix2 and it's working.
Run activity syncs as RUN, also my Run Dynamics are appearing in Connect.
My default equipment (shoes) are also selected.
Much better.

Same with vivosmart. And even changing those in Connect's dashboard to "Runnung" doesn't help. In reports and graphs those are still shown as "Other"

Same with the Fenix2, since the update to Android Connect (black theme), even changing from "Other" to "Running" does not fix the event in the reports and graphs.
The good news is that doing a "master reset" as per:
support.garmin.com/.../case.faces
Re-configured the Fenix2 results in new events coming thru correctly.
Also imports the Running Dynamics correctly.
Some of my recent events are still wrong in the reports (see attached print screen)

New imports are correct.
How do I fix the older events to be classified as Running.

reset didn't help for me (vivosmart) still getting "other" activity instead of running

Any ideas how to fix? That's kind of ruining my activities plan

Did you try reset app in app settings?

hadn't tried yet. Will do n report here.
But anyway, why the hell connect website still shows OTHER type of activities in reports after i've set them all to running manually

Hadn't tried it yet. But why the f^ck i have to do shaman dances around my device when it is obviously a server side issue?! GARMIN guys should finally start doing their jobs!

Try sync via USB.
This will bypass the App.
If the Activity comes through as OTHER, then the problem is in the device.
When I had this problem on my Fenix2, doing a "Soft" reset did not help.
Had to do a full reset as documented above.

There is a problem with the web where changing an activity from Other to Running does not update the reports.

I did a compare of an Other activity vs a Running activity and the other.FIT file was missing data.
