After searching in OSM I just found out that the track attributes "public" and "private" have been deprecated this month. Only "trackable" and "identifiable" habe been maintained.
Despite the problem is solved for me, it might be helpful for others using the upload tool to know about this.

For two weeks I have not been able to upload tracks directly to my OSM account, OruxMaps always returns "bad request".
I now found out that this appears to happen as I have preset "private" as type of track. After changing it to one of the other types, the upload works. Is this a bug of Orux or did OSM change its policy regarding the upload of "private" tracks?

Thanks for you help,
Reiner

Hi José,
that would be great!
Yes, it´s true, the altitude gain always dropped with the "old" altitude correction after stopping recording. But with the current correction, the recorded value of the gain is to high, sometimes by 10 to 15%.

Hi Tobias,
I had always used the 7.4 version for several reasons and switched only last week to the current GP version. I have experienced the same behavior with the cursor being static at a specific point. I checked the power management settings, but they were OK. After increasing the frequency of GPS recordings (2sec., interval 5m) it all of a sudden worked.

I have made the same observation. It would be nice, if this could be implemented as an automatic correction, instead of manually correcting every track after recording. Using the built-in corrections still give way to much altitude difference.
I had used in parallel the old free version 7.4.x. In that version, the automatic altitude correctionj works well. So something must be different in the current GP version.
Regards,
Reiner
