Today I had issues uploading a ride to Strava from the Elemnt app…it was saying failure data link, or similar. A friend said he had similar and suggested deleting the ride from the app, which I did. This immediately deleted it from the head unit too and it now appears lost
Any suggestions if this can be recovered?
I’ve plugged the headunit into my pc but cannot see the FIT file in the export rout3s folder
Where was the app getting the ride from? SYSTM?
Ride was coming from Elemnt Bolt V2. On now plugging the head unit into my PC I cannot see the FIT file
No I get that it was out of your head unit, but were you uploading it to the head unit from somewhere? I bring in workouts from SYSTM, TR, Komoot, etc. to the head unit. Just wondering if you can go back to an original app and re-push?
The route was plotted in ridewithgps. Rode the route, tried to upload the completed ride, that’s when I had the problem
Is there anything in the “exports” folder or is it completely empty?
All my previous rides but not this one
It may be worth seeing if you can use something like Recuva on the unit but I couldn’t get it to work when I tried it on my Roam this morning.
I think you may just have to admit defeat and accept that the ride is gone. A good excuse to ride the same route again!
I’ve had rides fail to sync in the past but rather then delete the whole ride i think the solution was something like going into the “upload workout” option, then tapping on Strava then reupload or delete and reupload or something like that.
I used to get the Roam upload the fit file to Dropbox (as well as Strava and Komoot) so that’s something you could look at if Strava uploads are being consistently unreliable
