Save it as a tcx file to your pc and then upload to Strava. Works a treat. That's the plan davefy! I don't think gpx carries across the cadence and HRM readings. Actually the GPX file format can store cadence and HRM data by the use of Garmin GPX extensions which seems to bother Strava. The use of the TCX file format (actually created by Garmin) was actually designed to store the extra data without the use of extensions. So in a way using TCX file for input into Strava seems to be the best format. www.earlyinnovations.com/gpsphotolinker/about-gpx-and-tcx-file-formats.html

I upload .tcx files to Strava from Cyclemeter, file type keeps sensor data intact. After some research I will be doing the same thing too! It's just that GPX is the dominant file format thereby one that will most easily be handled for input/export purposes on GPS hardware/software/apps. It's clear it ain't the best format.

This morning during my morning commute, I could not be bothered to wait for my phone to pick up GPS signal with the Endomondo app. Normally takes 3-4 mins so I just set off. The timer goes off and the GPS is recorded when signal is found. Is there an easy way to edit a GPX file to add the bit of the route that was missing, but maintain all the other speed data etc?
On related question, how long does Garmin/Bryton/Mio sports device take to acquire a GPS signal, on average?

Do you have good clear skies when starting it up? So far the Bryton has been locked on to the satellites whenever I want to use it.

Also since the data connection is disabled on this SIM (it's backup number with no data allowance), it relies purely on GPS. Although I was told mobile triangulation should make it quicker. yea clear enough skies, no tress and tall buildings. It will do until I can get a proper device.

Ah fair play, 3-4 mins sounded nuts but now makes sense.

Ah fair play, 3-4 mins sounded nuts but now makes sense. O, I think it's Endomonodo app or Windows Phone 7.8 itself. It seems the app doesn't switch on the GPS module or something along those lines. I downloaded another random GPS app (GPS Satellite) and within seconds there was GPS lock. As soon as I then opened Endomondo, it had signal and off I shot. If that's all it takes it to make it work, I'll be chuffed until I get my dedicated unit.
