Bad News about Course Sharing

Update: 11/15/2015



I recently wrote to someone knowledgeable about the history and details of the uPro G1 device. Disappointingly, I received no response. So without a lead on loading other courses to the device...when this battery dies, or I move away from my local area with my saved courses, this device will be relegated to the dust bin.

Note:  After mid-November this blog will only be available at uprogps.blogspot.com.  The uprogps.org domain will be inactive.

I recently received a copy of a Pro Mode Course from another user.  It did not work in my uPro device. It appears that when a Pro Mode Course is downloaded, a header and footer (it appears to be about 16 bytes) are added to the file. Anybody have any experience with this? Here's what shows up on the device...sadly.

And can anyone confirm that Basic Mode Courses will transfer?



Update 7/19/2016

I have posted a Basic Mode Course here. It is for a course in the Seattle area of Washington. If you own a uPro, try using it and see if it comes up "error" like the one above.  If it works, please contact me.
