Thread: OziExplorer for Android

When I browse for the GPX file it can't see any files in the folder they are located in. I also tried copying them to the device rather than USB and it still wont see the GPX files from within Ozi.

What and I doing wrong?

Just read this again, yout route needs to go in the Data Folder not the map folder

I am trying to import a route, I don't understand why you can browse to other folders if it has to be in 1 specific folder.
The route is from someone else this is the first time I have used OziExplorer on this device.

I tried it again tonight, GPS works fine, maps are indexed, shows my location and zooms into best map.

If I use file explorer I can see the xxx.GPX files on the SD card.
If I load > browse to the same location it will not see them.

I will try again after putting the routes in the data folder.

Thanks for the tip.

I copied them to the data folder and restarted Ozi. Same issue :/

Looks like I might have to email Ozi support if they have one.

I just tried with mine, gpx not compatible needs to be .rt2 or .rte

Have a look here, it appears you need a converter to change to ozi format

Import and Export FAQ

it says " Note : GPX is a universal format which OziExplorer supports. "

the files I have are GPX

Ozi doesn't seem to have "support" email address lol

That is referring to the fully functioned OziExplorer, "OziExplorer for Android" is still in Beta form and not fully functioned.

That was my next thought, I have the full desktop version on my pc at home also on a win CE device, ill have a look there as well, might just need to convert it for the beta version, no biggy really.
