    Yes, search for GPX editor software. I had to correct a few warps last months. There's a few free ones available.

    If you go to Endomondo's settings, have you got the right user set up in there? It asked me for my username and password the first time I ran it, and that was it, job done.

    How the hell have we got peoples on 2s and 4s for a mile in the warp challenge? :shock:

    Managed a 1:45 this morning, but I need to find a straighter road, had to ease off for a couple of corners.

    Fricken Endomondo still wont upload on my HTC HD7, Nasty email has been sent, wasted loads of time on their help site! Not saying i'd be a contender but it would be nice to be in with a shout!

    You'd have probably got a better response with a polite email asking for help.

    Frankly, there's not a lot of settings to GO wrong in Endomondo, and it works for others. there must be something you've not set in the options.

    Its a known issue apparently?
    Like you day not many settings to get wrong, something with windows phones

    Well, it's fine here, on a HTC Trophy 7.

    Endomondo settings:
    User: my name (not my email address, but my name as it appears in Endomondo)
    Sport: whatever I'm doing
    Units: miles
    Countdown: off
    Online tracking: ON i stick the phone in airplane mode wilst riding, then after a ride I exit endomondo, turn airplane mode off, then re-open endomondo again - saves on battery life, and I don;t want calls whilst riding)

    Allow running whilst screen is locked: ON
    Auto pause: OFF
    Audio Coach: off
    Peptalk from your friends: OFF
    Language English

    Endomondo is version 2.0.0

    Phone settings:
    Location
    Location serviecs: ON
    Mobile Network
    Active Network: vodafone
    Data Connection ON
    Data roaming options: don't roam
    3G connection: ON
    Network selection: Automatic

    Find my phone
    Save my location periodically for better mapping: ON
    Get results faster: Off.


    There's a ton of settings there that will have nothing to do with it, but I've included every possibly related group of settings.

    I have a 1s mile... I think it's gps error. since in the last track I noticed it lost signal or something. Any way to correct this?

    Are you sorting one of these out for July too?
  • cat_with_no_tail
    cat_with_no_tail Posts: 12,980
    Ah yes, sorry about the delay in sending out invites for July, been busy with the new job etc and it slipped my mind.

    All sent out now.

    June was a poor month for me. Sadly, even though the weather is set to be superb, I can't imagine July will be much better. Just so busy right now it's unreal.
  • Shame you can't do most ft climbed!

    Would be interesting to see what sort of terrain you guys with the longest km are riding over :wink:

    I think you're onmy Endomondo friends list, which means you should be able to see mine.
    I think most of my distance is commuting, probably about 60% of it. The rest is mountain biking, generally.

    I was thinking exactly that! Two challenges the climber and the.. hum... descender? (sorry english isn't my first language and sometimes I run out of vocabulary! :oops: )

    We've done it before (last one should be a couple of pages back on this thread). As you say, you can't do it on Endomondo, but you can on here.

    I'll go first, Just re-quote the table below, add in your name, in the position you slot into on the leaderboard:

    This month I only managed 332km. Of that, 271km of it was MTB

    Oo, I'll have to look mine up, having done Mayhem and raced at Margam it should be pretty good! I'll try and upload later.
