Anyone would be so kind to try to repair a .FIT file for me?

Former Member over 4 years ago

Got a broken .FIT file from a trek i did yesterday. And i am suspecting that it's because of empty laps (as the fenix watch is pretty easy to misclick the pause/resume button when doing things with your arms)

Cannot get it to work in the Garmin Dashboard - and also tried to repair it with the online tool. When repaired, it only gives me 1/4th of the trek.

Please zip the fit file, then attach (drag & drop) it to a new post to this thread. Then someone can take a look at it.

hi,

When repaired, it only gives me 1/4th of the trek.

correct

recording to your fit file ended abrupt without any additional data present in the fit file

when you can set your Fenix 5x plus in usb mass storage mode you could us a file recovery tool

just maybe and with a lot of luck

stop all activity on your watch by turning it off until you start a file recovery scan

with the use of a file recovery program and some luck one could find the rest of the fit file

for PC

for Mac

happy & safe sporting

Ouch. Sounds like a dead drop right there :( I can try to run a recovery and see if it finds any lost files. But im pretty sure there was no more files in there. And also, checking the watch - it shows the correct time and lenght on the Last Activity Widget. But refuses to open it when i press it to show detailed info. It just shows Loading forever.

hi,

But im pretty sure there was no more files in there.

that's the reason to use the recovery tool

And also, checking the watch - it shows the correct time and lenght on the Last Activity Widget

the info you see there does not come from your fit file

But refuses to open it when i press it to show detailed info. It just shows Loading forever.

because of the corrupted fit file

let's hope you can use a recovery tool and have success

happy & safe sporting
