Corrupt FIT File Repair Requests

Former Member
Former Member over 12 years ago

Hi,

I would like to load this file into any software, but all of them tell me that it cannot be imported.
For some reason the file is not working (the watch ran out of battery while it was tracking the hike), but I would really like to have it.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

    @Kai:

    Hi Kai,

    please try this repaired version of your swim file: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/91455145/6CUL0411-fixed.fit
    I was not able to fix your heart rate data and excluded heart rate data from the export into the new file.

    I fixed your file with Fit File Repair Tool version 8.1.5.

    All the best
    Mathias


    GREAT WORK Mathias, danke!

    I was able to download it with Garmin express... https://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/1504319193

    just another question...I tried to re-download the HR Data from my HR-Swim, it did so in a second with the OK confirmation...but didn't download it really, I know it takes normally a long time, especially for an over 8 hour swim...the file remained the same...is there a way to get the data from the HR-Swim or impossible now? I am preparing a very different Marathon swim and this was a test to see how my heart performs...so recovering the data would be great...thx in advance!

    No, I'm sorry. I have no software to fix the corrupt heart rate data at hand. :-(

    For the first time this happened to me, if someone could fix it it would be great.
    The training is done anyway, but it would give me Festive 500.

    Yes, the file ended up with the year 2050 :confused:

    Corrupt .fit file

    Hi,

    I'm hvaing some trouble with my Edge 520, after my ride today some data was uploaded, some was missing and some where totally messed up...

    Than when I looked after the .fit file it was not on my Garmin anymore, same for 3 other workouts from this week, but nobody deleted them.

    I had the corrupt data from today on garmin connect, is it possible to get the complete ride with the following file ?

    Cheers,
    Paul

    THANK YOU once again...I was able to import it manually and all the heart rate data is preserved...just the total count in every zone is missing...
    https://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/1514187870

    I will try in the future, after long swimming sessions, to download the heart rate data only when I'm stationary with both HR-SWIM and my 735XT to have no interference for the download, hope it doesn't happen again...

    Garmin Corrupting Files

    Hello,

    My fenix 2 has started corrupting files regularly, I have searched forums and tried a few things to fix it.

    I have updated my fenix 2 software, cleared my device from garmin connect and re-added it. I have deleted all old history workouts to clear corrupted files and restored the factory settings on my Fenix 2.

    Please help this is infuriating for a watch so expensive.

    I have attached the fit file from my 2 hour indoor trainer ride today. If it could be fixed and you could offer advice how to get my garmin syncing properly I would appreciate it. The first 8 months it worked fine. :(
