Help with corrupt fit file

Former Member

Might as well start a thread for this like they have over in the 500 forum.

I've only had my 520 for a week, and I really like it. The only issues I've had so far are that sometimes the bluetooth requires me to restart on the device to work properly, and then tonights FIT file is really corrupt so I can't load it over to strava.

The online FIT tool doesn't fix it, and then I opened it in golden cheetah. It seems the timestamps are all whacky, where it should be increasing every second, but it looks like the stamps are becoming integer overflows. The data is there, I just don't know of a way to edit all of the timestamps by just setting them as monotonically increasing seconds after they start getting corrupt in the file.

Any ideas?

    hi Spencer,

    The fit is 100% corrupt - there is nothing I can do to assist sorry.

  • I'm having a similar problem with a file from yesterday's ride. It didn't auto upload to GMC then when I tried to manually upload I was told it was corrupted, which also happened when I tried to upload straight to Strava. Had a look at an online fit repair tool but it wasn't Mac compatible.

    If anyone is able to help it would be appreciated.

    Thanks.

    Can anyone please help with this corrupted file? Not sure what my 520 was up to today, going to reset it, but don't want to loose a 4+ hour ride.

    hi lnorrisok,

    Well over 75% of your ride data was corrupted. There is no data for the first 2hr39min of your ride, again between 2hr45min and 3hr15min and then between 3hr55min and 5hr06min.

    This file contains what I have been able to save.

    cheers

    Thank you!!! Wished I would have paid more attention when I finished. Was only a 4hr 20min ride.. Never had it happen before like this.

    Thanks again!
