The Uploader for Garmin version 2.1 provides beta-level support for the first batch of ANT+ Garmin Forerunners (405, 405CX, 410). Other ANT+ models will follow. The app is targeting mobile phones and small-screen tablets, and has already been tested on the Samsung S3 (Android 4.1.1, ROM version: I9300XXBLH1). If you have a mobile phone with an internal ANT+ chip (mostly the Sony Xperia family), see here for details.
Like for the big brother Sportablet, the Uploader requires that you install some services on your phone / tablet and that you set up your watch. See here for a detailed, step-by-step explanation of everything you need to make it work.
Please send me a log if you try out the beta. I really need to check what is going on with different Garmin models and tablets / phones. The ANT+ log is very detailed and can get a little too long for some email apps, so:
- try the app with device diagnostics off, just to check that it works.
- if the app works, enable device diagnostics (under "my options"), turn on the watch again, and enable everything on your watch as you did before. The app will see that there are no new activities and will stop earlier. Send me that log using the red button, thanks :-).
- if the app does not work for your device / tablet, enable device diagnostics, set up your watch as described in my previous post, try to upload. The app will retry for a long while, so at some point you may want to stop it and send me the log.
