Invalid activity

Former Member over 5 years ago

Hi everyone,

I'm hoping someone can help! I actually have a Forerunner 920X but that wasn't an option on here... I ran today and the file is saying 'Invalid' 0.00 for all the data. It stays at the top of my history and won't delete. This has only happened once to me before, and I accepted it was a lost cause because it was trying to save when the watch ran out of power - my fault entirely. But there is still 50% charge in the watch even now!

The file when the watch is connected to the computer looks ok to me, and is 19KB, the same size as yesterday's run. Is there any way of resurrecting this activity, or is it dead? I searched a bit on here, but I can't get any of the downloads people have suggested to work on my laptop.

Please help if you can.

Thanks in advance,

Amanda

Amanda,

recording to your fit file ended abruptly without a summary at the end

import/export with Fit File Tools's section remover did the repair

fitfiletools.zip

tagruski, I'm assuming it's the fit file from Sept. 12, as that is the largest file.

This will work - B9C65659-fixed.fit

Download the file then upload to Garmin Connect Web using the import data…

I think this is correct. The file is 174kb. I downloaded it to my desk top and then also zipped it. When i tried to insert it there was nowhere to upload or paste a link. This is a google drive and I made it where it could be edited.

Thanks

Download the file then upload to Garmin Connect Web using the import data page.

Then you problably should do some maintenance on your 920XT. After verifying that everything has synced, backup then remove the files in the \GARMIN\ACTIVITY folder on the device’s file system using these directions: Removing Recorded Activities on a Garmin Fitness Device

Eureka - It worked!!! I can see how slow I was :-) Thanks so much. I got rid of the extra files but I do 1, 2 or 3 workouts a day so those files are constantly on and then purged - I think. Thanks so much!!!

I would get rid of the entire contents of the \GARMIN\ACTIVITY folder, or simply delete the folder itself (it will automatically be recreated). You don't need to do it every day, but maybe once a month or so would be sufficient to reduce the chances of having corrupt files. I also have a 920XT. It's typically very stable with very few issues, but I do the monthly maintenance routine.
