Corrupt file

Lauren77611 over 5 years ago

Hi,

I have a Garmin 25 and today's activity won't upload. i tried uploading manually, and I'm told that Garmin does not support this file type. I tried fixing it with this tool (http://garmin.kiesewetter.nl/) which I've done in the past, but I'm getting an error message when I go to the site. Garmin support told me that its corrupt and that there is nothing they can do. Does anyone have any advice? 9BA90340.FIT.zip

removed two corrupted data records and recalculated checksums

contact Garmin support and tell them about your mishap

and point them to this thread FR35 FIT file fault : misformed data record : cases

help Garmin repair their faulty software

do check the ACTIVITY folder on your watch

when containing many fit files, time to backup/clear the ACTIVITY folder

double post being solved here

some advice

contact Garmin Support by phone and tell them about your mishap

get a case number and report that number in the forum
you can help others with building a larger case this way
mac users empty bin when device connected

avoid pausing during activities

clean activity folder on a regular base

Fit File Repair Tool can repair your fit file, time for an investment when you keep using the FR35

want a fit file repair without investment
zip your fit file, make a new post, drag & drop the zip onto your post

happy & safe sporting
