<![CDATA[GPX route transfer to Zumo XT not working]]>I've been a happy user of MRA for a couple of years. I have a Zumo XT on my BMW. My standard process is to build a route in MRA on my PC, then open the route in the Android app on my phone. I then download the GPX file, and open it in Garmin Drive App. When the phone is connected to the Zumo, the Drive app transfers the track and route to the GPS.

That's all been good for some time. Recently, the GPX transfer from the Drive app to the Zumo has been failing. The track is transferred, but the route is not, and the Zumo reports that the import failed. I've tried GPX 1.0, 1.1 and 1.2.

The transfer is successful if I use a USB cable from the PC to the Zumo.

This was a problem some time ago with the Drive app, but it was fixed by Garmin. I have not intentionally updated the app. I am using Drive app version 4.22.19.

I know other users are following the same basic procedure to load routes to the Garmin. Anyone else having problems recently?

Thanks in advance.

Good to hear that it is solved.
I will close this topic now.

I reset the Zumo to factory default settings and cleared all user data. The Route and Track info are now downloading to the Zumo as before using the Garmin Drive app.

I re-installed Explore on the phone as a test, and it did not affect my ability to download routes.

Many thanks to Hans, and to all who helped me resolve this issue. User support is a great benefit to using MyRoute-App!

Best Regards;

Don Stauffer

I uninstalled Explore and Drive. I restarted the phone just on general principles. I then re-installed Drive, logged in using my Garmin account username and password.

During the re-install, I was not prompted to install Explore. I do not see that it automatically loaded without asking.

Anyway, the end result was the same, tracks transferred, route failed. I repeated the same test with my Samsung tablet, which did have Explore installed. With the same result.

For testing, I have been using the route I shared, but the transfer has been failing with every route I have tried in the past couple of months.

Thanks to all for suggestions, I'll reset the Garmin Zumo as a next step.

I had a similar issue a while back.

try this ir worked for me. Uninstall the drive app from you device.

after you reinstall the drive app, and start to go through the process, when you get to the page that asks about installing explore click "maybe later"

this works for me

mmm, strange.
Have you linked Garmin Explore in the app?
Yes, then uninstall the App, reinstall it and skip the Garmin Explore step.
If it still doesn't work, then reset the XT to factory settings.

I fixed the other off-route waypoint as well.

But still no change in the transfer to the Zumo, the track imported, but the route failed.

Hi Don,

Always place the waypoints on the route line.
See also points 6 and 10
Then try again

Can you share the url of the route? Make sure it is set public

I see previous routes that I have transferred, but I think the process is failing before that point.

I'm getting the same failure using two different devices. The same version of the Drive app works for others. Opening the file using the App or the website (is there a difference?) produces the same error. A hard-wire (USB) transfer does work from my Desktop using the MRA website and Connector app. Tracks do transfer properly.

The only thing I can think of is a hard reset of the Zumo. The software reports as up to date. I can re-import my saved locations using the Garmin Explore website, so it will not be too inconvenient.

Thanks!

When you go to trips on the XT and choose import via the menu?

No change, Zumo reports 'failed to import new trips'.

I opened the MRA site from the web browser on the phone, opened last route, dowloaded, open with Garmin Drive. Same result, tracks were imported, route was not.

I switched to my Samsung tablet. I opened the Drive app, connected to the Zumo. I used the browser to open the MRA site, logged in to my account. I opened 'last route', saved it, opened with the Drive app. Selected 'send to Zumo'. Zumo reports tracks added, failed to import new trips.

Not sure where to go from here.

Installed version is 4.22.19, so no difference there. Last time I had this issue it was related to a particular version of the Drive app.

Yours 4.19.22 typo?

My installed version is 4.19.22

The Zumo XT software version is 6.50.

Interesting, as I had it installed before resetting the phone.

The Drive app is connecting to my Pixel phone to the Zumo, and the Drive app icon is visible on the Zumo. As stated, the tracks transfer properly, but the route fails, similar error on all three GPX flavors.

I did re-enter my Garmin username and password when I re-installed the Drive app.

This is a procedure I have done many times with no issues. I have changed phones recently, the current phone is a Pixel 6a. I am considering testing on the old phone.

Thanks for the testing and suggestions.

You need this one:

instead of this one:

As MTC-Zeilberg indicates, it just works, both the route and the track are sent and received.

Just tested with a Samsung S22 and the XT.

After that the drive connected again with my XT.
When I export the gpx 1.1 I press on download and then open it directly with the drive app.
That should do the trick
If that doesn't work maybe @Hans-van-de-Ven-MRA-Master had a solution
